Leaven in the Bible is a type or symbol of evil, and unleavened bread thus stood for something free from evil. The Israelites had been in bondage in Egypt, and, before He brought them triumphantly out, God was going to strike Egypt with the judgment of death—for “the wages of sin is death.” But each family or household of the Israel­ ites -was to take a lamb without blemish, kill it, and “take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.” This shed blood of a lamb without blemish was to be the sal­ vation of Israel. For God said: “And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.” (Exod. 12:13). For 1,500 years Israel observed that sacred cermonial. And now, on the last night of Christ’s earthly life we read: “Now the feast of un­ leavened bread drew nigh, which is called the passover.” Was this observance of the pass- over to be any different from that which had been followed for a mil­ lennium and a half? Yes: for it was the last passover supper that would be eaten since God had ordained this ceremonial, before the consum­ mation of that to which the supper had looked forward during all those 1,500 years. The passover lamb slain by the Israelites the night they left Egypt was but a type of “the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” (Rev. 1'3:8). The lesson is filled with dramatic tragic intensity and significance— but the disciples did not know this. Our Lord knew it. Here is part of the tragedy: As the passover feast drew nigh, and as the sinless, spotless Lamb of God was about to become the Saviour [ Of the world, “the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill Him.” They hated, with murder­ ous hatred, the One they ought to have loved most: the One who loved ’ them so much that He was going to die for them. Again as the passover feast ap­ proached, “Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.” Under the direction of the great enemy of God and Christ and men, one of the twelve apostles plotted “with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him unto them. And they were glad and covenated to give him money.” We read on: “Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the pass- over must be killed,” Let us keep clearly in mind cer­ train tremendous facts. The unleavened .bread stood for the body of Christ, which was to he broken, for the sins of the world: yet that body was sinless, the Bread of Life without any leaven. The passover lamb, slain every year at this supper, stood for “the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world,” the Lamb without blemish, “the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29), When the day of unleavened bread came , then “the passover Lmust be killed.” For there was no \,Way by which men could be saved except this way—that the sinless ISon of God should die for sinners. And let us note well the prepar­ ation for the passover feast and for its consummation. God had prepared for this before the foundation of the world. Christ had prepared for it from all eternity. “Wherefore when He lAmeth into the world, He saith,..... a body hast thou prepared Me....... Then said I, Lo, I come.......to do Thy will, O God.......By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all” (Heb. 10:5-10). And Christ the passover Lamb, prepares for the eating of the sup­ per with His disciples, sending Peter and John and saying, "Go and prepare us the passover t hat we may eat.” But the enemies of God and Christ were also preparing. Judas Iscariot and Satan directing them and work­ ing with them. And the friends’•'of 'Christ prepar­ ed. And they went and found as He had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.” After all this we read the mo­ mentous words: “And when the hour was come.” We think of the “zero hour” that came to men at the front in the World War, when they “went over the top,” knowing it meant certain death. Yet what they faced, bravely and sacrificially could no more be compared with what the Son of God was facing than man can be compared with God. There comes a strange, startling word from the Lord as He sits at this supper with His twelve apostles. We would have expected Him to shrink in agony from this ceremon­ ial ordeal, knowing, as only He could, all that it stood for. But He says quietly “With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer.” It was the etern­ al longing and passion of Christ to die for lost sinners that they might be saved. The disciples and the whole ■Church of Christ, have continued to partake of that divinely ordained supper during the ninteen centuries since that night; but the Lord, Him­ self the Passover Lamb, made a re­ markable prophecy: that He would not partake of it again until that day when I-le and His disciples would partake of it in His Father’s kingdom. The Lord “took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is My body which is given for you: this do in remem­ brance of Me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in My blood, which is shed for you.” And as He began the meal, He “gave thanks” to the Heavenly Father. He knew all that lay ahead for Him, of humiliation, insult, physical suffering and torture, men­ tal and spiritual agony unique in time and eternity. 'Yet' He “gave thanks.” Was there ever love like this? The Son of God, “who knew no sin,” thanked His Heavenly Father that “He hath made Him to be sin for us.......that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Cor. 5:21). MRS.

The harne team was com­ posed of a young bunch of players who outlasted the Kippen team. By putting on an attack in the second half they outscored their rivals after trailing 1-0 at end of the first. The game was late in getting started and Referee Emmet Malone decided on 25 minutes each way. With only three minutes left of the first half Harold Elliott’s shot hit the cross bar of the Seaforth goal and rebounding down, glanced off Van Bell’s back. Seaforth led the at­ tack in the second with the wings feeding “Buzz” Dale at centre who succeeded in tallying twice in three minutes; the first by heading in J. Flannery’s pass and the second by drilling a hard ground shot .past Upshall on. T. Sills’ pass to end the scoring. It was a good clean game with both teams showing promise of displaying some good football talent throughout the year. Seaforth—V. Bell goal; G. Kruse, B. Christie, backs; T. Sills, J. Dick­ son, C.

Canada Company That historical colonization organ­ ization “Canada Company,” who in the early days of “Upper Canada” now Ontario, had a large part in the opening up and establishment of many of the first settlement in dif­ ferent parts of the Province, has an­ nounced a Bale of Tender program in order to clear up the remainder of its scattered holdings. The name “Canada Company” was in the early part of last century very prominent in the history of Ontario, and to it a great deal ,oi credit is due for the well laid-out communities, and the industrious class of loyal citizens, who, at the encouragement of the Canada Company, made their homes in different sections, and made good. In many localities to­ day we find the. descendants of those early settlers taking an active part in the affairs' of the country. When the widely scattered pro­ perties are disposed of, municipal officers in many directions will miss from their books and records a name which has had a place in those're­ cords from their very beginning’; CENT A MILE R.und Trip Bargain F ARES Minimum Fares.
