Now don’t raise your hands, but I want pvpry one of you who will try to remember this week to obey, to trust God, to do better, to be brave, and to keep the laws of our country, to say very quietly, so that no one else can hear, “I will try to rem­ ember.” Frayer for the close of the Lesson: Dear Father in heaven, help us to try to be as good helpers as Peter was.

When all are written, they could then be read aloud in tur-o, and the pages fastened together. Plan II. A Symbol Review.—Cut from a piece of paper, twelve small symbols, each one having a direct connection with one of tha lessons of the Quarter. The symbols might be as follows, (1) a fish. (2) a boat, (3) a rock, (4) a mountain, (5) a cock, (6) a tomb, (7) a tongue of flame, (8) a gateway, (9) a prison, CIO) a flat-rooted Eastern house. (11) a chain, (12) a letter. Print on the back of each what it represents and th-° lesson with which it is connected. Txit the scholars draw for the sym­ bol-. five them a tew moments to review the lessen which their symbol, ind'eates anti then m-orced with the; review.

PRIMARY DEPARTMENT. Instead of reviewing twelve separ­ ate lessons, group the lessons of the Quarter somewhat in this manner: Peter obeys Jesus’ call,, Lesson I; Peter learns to trust Jesus, Lessons II and IV; Peter sins and is forigven, Lessons III, V, and VI;. Peter carries on Jesus’ work, Lessons VII, VIII, and X; God protects Peter, Lessons IX and XI; and Peter tells how to follow Jesus, Lesson XII. Have the children themselves tell at least one story in each group. What would have happened if Peter had not obeyed that day on the sea­ shore when' Jesus called him? He might never have been Jesus’ friend, and he might never have done such splendid work kfkorkk kkkkk splendid work for Jesus. The first thing Peter learned was to obey. (Write Obey on the blackboard.) Next Peter learned not to be afraid. He learned to trust in Jesus and to know that Jesus would take care of him. Jesus’ followers must trust him. (Write Trust.) ■^hen Peter learned to be sorry for his sirs and to do better. He did not say. “I’m sorry,” when he knew that he had done something wrong, ard then go ahead and do it again. He' went ahead and worked so hard for Jesus that eirerv one knew that he was sorrv. (Write Do Better.) Then Peter was brave. He was not afraid of the high priest who arrested him for talking about Jesus, for he knew that he was doing right. He was not afraid when Herod had him j put into prison. 'He knew that God; would take care of him. (Write Be Brave.) Peter knew that if he was going to be a good worker for Jesus he must be a good citizen and obey the laws of his country. Every onejivho is try­ ing to follow J^sus must remember to keen the law. (Write Obey the Law.) Now here are five things that Peter did, and doing these things helped to make him' a splendid worker for Jesus. They are things which we all can do to-day. I want you to read the list with me. How many of you would lilce to try to do those things? CHIEF OBJECT. So, determined to give the daugh­ ters every advantage, the parents for some years eliminated luxuries, and made their girls’ education1'their chief object. After going through the pub- I lie school and collegiate, the two older I girls attended college. Their house i became an open one, where their fel­ low students.met and had wholesome home influenced In due time they graduated with a bachelors’s degree, winning not only five scholarships be­ tween them, but cups and trophies for tennis and basketball as well. The next step taken was to enter the two girls in a library school. When equip­ ped with this training, one secured the pest of librarian in a large bank­ ing establishment; the other was given charge of a private library, each at I I I ! i I j i i!

CORN BREAD By Lucy Chandler Fuller want a piece of corn bread,” dared Jimmie, reaching across i table in an attempt to help himself. “Not until you have finished your supper, Jimmie,” said his mother kind­ ly but firmly.-“But not at all if you are rude,” she added. “I don’t want my wheatena,” shouted the little boy and he began to dish out his cereal on to his butter plate. “I won’t eat it.” “See here, young man,” said the "i de- the gent girl. So her parents sent her to I fatber, glowering at Jimmie, “you calm a private school, and later to the high down and behave yourself.” ----------- “I want corn bread and syrup,” yel­ led the boy, every muscle tense, his little face flushed and his eyes glow­ ing. "I don’t like this stuff.” “I’m about ready to thrash the kid,” muttered the father under his breath. “You know the rule, Jim,” said the"' mother. ‘No dessert until you have finished your first course and no des­ sert at all if you are impolite.” Somehow with much spluttering and slopping Jimmie managed1 to swallow his cereal. ‘Now can I have my corn bread?” he angrily asked. “No, dear,” replied his mother, you have been very rude indeed.” Then the storm broke All the sio.n In the little fellow’s being let loose He stamped and kicked and screamed and threatened to take the corn bread. When his mother could get a word in amid the din she re­ minded Jimmie of the justice of her action but Jimmie’s anger only waxed the hotter. “A real Indian would never act like that,” finally suggested the mother. Jimmie stopped yellijig and began to look interested. “He would take his punishment like ajreal warrior,” continued the mother. “And eat his corn bread the 'next day for breakfast,” put In the father. At those words the clouds burst again and through the storm the father demanded of the mother, “Why do you distract his attention? Let him yell. You will undo all the good you have done.” The mother did. not reply although she could hardly keep from saying, “He’s had. his punishment. Why rub it in? Let’s help him recover his self­ control.” Instead she quickly left the table, picked up the kicking, scream­ ing Jimmie and carried him off up­ stairs* He was a load but somehow she reached the nursery, dropped the child, found his story book and began reading the bedtime story. From force of habit Jimmie started to undress himself and suddenly he was all intent upon the story. By the time his teeth were brushed the corn bread was entirely forgotten and Jim- schcol of commerce for a "complete' J course. Following this, she spent a year in a school for secretaries. So now, thoroughly equipped for busi­ ness, she has found a -well-paid, if jbusy post, as secretary. So all three girls by their success have more than justified the efforts made for their education. * . j DID MORE. But the parents did more than givel them a thorough education. For each girl they took out an annuity, so that when arriving at ha age of 50 she would receive an income of $1,000 a year for life. The parents carried them along until they were earning for themselves. Now the girls pay their own premiums, which being gov­ ernment annuities, are operated at cost and without profit, and are non- taxable and non-seizable, while .the premiums are low, due to starting when the girls were bo young. The girls are grateful to thier parents. ------------O-------— Perhaps—But Moscow Izvestia: The Conservative Government of Great Britain, in breaking off both commercial and 'diplomatic relations with Russia, the re-establishment of which will demand new and considerable efforts and long preparation of offended Soviet public opinion, has dug its own grave.

The next morning as the mother was making a bed she heard a patter of feet and felt little arms grab her around the knees. She turned around to loo-k down into the brown eyes which smiled at her as Jimmie whis­ pered, “I’ll try to do what you tell me to.” The mother could hardly keep the tears back as she put her arms around the little form. “I know you will, Jim­ mie, and Mother’s going to help you do it,” she whispered back. How to Bring Trout Home The problem of bringing home trout from the wilderness, when the trip backjbakes twelve hours or even more, is one that troubles many. The follow­ ing scheme has been used by old fish­ ers for many- ye&rs, and will be found very satisfactory; The .container may be a suitcase, a box or a basket. Usually one can get ice from the camp he is at, or if not, at the near­ est village on the way out. Get a quart mason jar or can with a non­ leak, large opening and fill it with ice, then place it in the center of the container. Then pack the trout, wrapping each one individually in a dry rag, around the jar. The trout, when being cleaned, should not be washed, as the slime and blood make a protective covering that helps a great deal in keeping them freak. If the weather is very warm and the trip is extra long, one may refill th*e ice jar at intervals along the way, ----------,^-y!----- Peace River Outlet Sought Edmonton, Alta.—^C.' A.

Keep hop- cific. The United States has at least, per and fountain _ well supplied and two transcontinental road's, which are kept in good repair all the year round. At the present time, though we have many excellent provincial highways across the country, we have no thor­ oughfare to which we can point with pride and say: “That road will take you straight through Canada to the Pacific Ocean.” It would be a prac­ tical and .beneficial method of estab­ lishing a permanent memorial of Con­ federation if such a highway could be begun this year with the co-operation of all the provinces and the Federal Government. Thus divided, the cost would not be insuperable, and the benefits would more than justify the outlay involved. Canada needs as many good's roads as she “can get, both for the use of her own citizens and for tourist traffic. The assurance of the existence of such roads is one of the very beat advertisements this country coyld have, and it is a mat­ ter of public responsibility to unite in efforts to improve existing conditions in this connection. Quebec has done excellent work during the past ten years, but much more remains to be done, and it is beyond doubt that a ' accessible at all times. Broilers arc always in demand at good prices. Yukon River Navigation Tho . Yukon river is navigable for^i large steamers from its mouth to! Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Can­ ada, a distance of about 2,000 miles-. The only obstruction to navigation which steamers cannot overcome with their own power at -all stages of water is at the Five-fingers rapid's, so-called from five rocks which stand up out of the water like the fingertips of some giant hand. No difficulty is exper­ ienced at these rapids during tho greater part of the season but at the period! of extreme high water, the fall, at one point, is just sufficient, to lift the big stern wheel of an upward- bound steamer for a few seconds out of the water. That brief space of time is sufficient for a ship to lose headway and Be carried down stream. To overcome this, when steam navi­ gation was first undertaken on the river, an improvement was made by which a steel cable was attached to suitable ringbolts in rocks above and i When steamers bound up-stream reach the foot of the rapids the cable is order.
