HATTER DAIRY Sunday School Lesson SOWING AND REAPING (Temperance Lesson) Sunday, Aug. 16.—Galatians 6.1-10 Golden Text spirit of meekness; considering thy­ self, .lest thou Also be tempted.” What a different thing the Church of Christ would be if this simple but divine command were alweys obeyed No Christian should ever set himself up above another Christian; all Christians sheuld realize that they could, and may, fall into any sin except for the restraininf and help­ ing grace of God. Better still, many more sinning or fallen Christians would be brought back, and speedily, if they were al­ ways dealt with in this way. But too often they are condemned so harsh­ ly or bitterly that they are only driven further away from the Lord. Burdened Christians need help also, but of a different sort. Pro­ bably there are more burdened Christians today than ever before. And too many of these are being left to bear their .burdens alone, when God would have the burdens shared by fellow-Christians. Here again, if we would help a child of God who is discouraged or crushed by some burden, we are not to go to him. in any lofty or self-sufficient way, as though we never woul$ break down 'under a similiar bur­ den. “For if a man thinks himself 1 to be something, when he is nothing he deceiveth himself.” | We have one of the many chal­ lenging paradoxes of Scripture in this passage. Here are two state­ ments that seem to be contradictory, but they are not: “Bean ye one an­ other’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” “For every man shall bear his own burden.” Even when, we are helping a fellow-Chrdstian to bear his burden as Christ asks us to do, we can never take that burden fully from him; he must bear it him­ self while we are getting under the load with him. And when we are borne down with heavy burdens and a loving, big-hearted Christian comes to help us, the load is1 lifted, yet we must still stand it. Bilble paradoxes never mean that the Bible is contra- EniTHPI A !■U JL ' JL VJF Jhl JL JLk Blessed is the man who keeps his head these days. ** * * « * But you shouldn’t cross a “bridge” * *♦ * * * till * * you come to it. * Spain end such a Those town. is finding that war. it is easier to ♦ * » •* *awell marked parking spaces Well done, councillors! start a civil war than to • * on our streets smarten the Had the advantageously situated classes in Spain been duty doing, that country would have been spared two costly revolutions. • •*•*••• The, very best Asters and Glads we’ve seen this season grew in the South East corner of this good town.

God is not mock­ ed: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. (Gal. 6:7.) The subject of sowing and reaping is only one of five different points clearly brought out in this lesson of ten verses. The Scofield Reference Bible notes these five points; The case of a sinning brother. The case of a burdened brother. The case of a teaching brother, new life as a husbandry, new life as a beneficence. “The new life” is the Christian life. For ‘‘if any man be in Christ, he isV new creature; old things are passed away; behold all things are become new” (2 Cor. >5.17.) And the word “brother” in most New Tes­ taments passages means fell-believ­ er, fellow-Chrdstian. There is no .Scripture for the mistaken yet pop­ ular idea that all men are brothers. There is no teaching in the Bible of any universal fatherhood of God or brotherhood of man. God is Father’ only of those who have received His Son as their Saviour; and only those are brothers who are children of God by faith in His Son as their Sa­ viour. But Christians, children of God, can sin. Suppose a fellow-Christian falls into sin, and we who are Chris­ tians see this, what .should we do? Criticize him sharply, or condescend­ ingly, as though we could never sin as he is doing? “God forbid! “Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault,, ye which are .spiritual, restore such an one in the WAIT DON'T BUY TIRES UNTIL YOU SEE THE Goodrich Cavaliers < < 4 ◄ AA QUALITY BPS HOW TO MAKE ICED TEA lnfui« six hetping teaspoons of Seltda Black Tea in a pint of fresh boiling water.

Coates Phones Garage 200 Exeter, I House 200 Ontario dieting itself, but only giving light on a subject from different angles. It is ever right for a Christian worker, pastor, missionary, evangel­ ist, Bible teacher, to receive money for giving the Gospel to others and teaching the Word of God? We some times hear shallow, selfish criticism of such workers because they are paid for their services. Any such criticism is made in ignorance and contradiction of the Scriptures, “Let him that is taught in the Word com­ municate unto him that teachelh in all good things.” So wrote Paul by inspiration in this lesson: Christ Himself said: “The laborer is worthy of his hire.”- when speaking of the ministry of the men whom He sent out to carry His message. The Christian life is a sowing and reaping life—and so is all life, whether Christian or not, whether of the believer or the unbeliever. Here is one of the most searching verses in the Bible, in the way both of solemn warning and joyous assur­ ance: “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sow­ eth, that shall be also reap.” Paul goes on to explain that one who sows to his flesh—'that is, to sin —shall reap what he sows, corrup­ tion; and he who sows to the Spirit —that is, ’by living as the Holy Spirit of God would have us live — shall reap life ever-lasting. These words apply directly to the matter of temperance or intemper­ ance in drink. Those who give them­ selves up to the use of alcoholic 'drinks are terribly liable to be en­ slave by the habit, and even to des­ troy both body and soul through this indulgence. The closing verse -urges Christians as they have opportunity, to “do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith” Good -Christians are good neighbors both to believers and un­ believers. JEWELLERY STORES The desire .for personal adornment which was evident in prehistoric times, and which we see exemplified in. grotesque fashions amongst unciv­ ilized tribes, is the foundation upon Which the jeweller’s .craft of today has ibeen built. From the heavy gold bracelets of the ancient Egyptians and the bronze jewellery of the (Assyrians, the jew­ eller’s art has .reached a level where delicacy and beauty are the predom­ inating. theme. As to be expected, therefore, the jewellery sore of Can­ ada is one of the important kinds of business in the retail merchandising field. ■ At the last 'census there werp over 1,500 jewellery stores operating in the Dominion and they had a total sales volume of about $27,000,000. Of course, many jewellery steres other than strictly jewellery, but on the other hand, jewellery is sold in department sores and some other lines of business. It is estimated that the value of jewellery sold in Canada is over $26,000-,000, including clocks and watches. Sixteen per cent, of the sales is diamond jewellery and 13 per cent, is clocks and watches. This information comes from the Internal Trade Branch of the Dom­ inion Bureau of Statistics, Dopart- beilt of Trade and Commerce.

Yesterday he addressed an audience in Orillia, emphasizing the “moral and human” side of imperial re­ lationships. “If .our Empire becomes a thing of counting house and ledger only,” he said, “it will pass away, but if it is an Empire of moral obligation, dedicated to the highest service, there is no reason why it should not live forever.”—The Hamilton Spectator. We like this sort of talk in a public man. In days when we chatter everlastingly about ledgers and dividends, we forget that there is more to a man than a cash box and that he is designed to do something better than ring the changes on the verb to eat, Pal­ estine did something far more than talk Olympics and football and six per -cent., yet she gave to the world the keenest business men the world ever has known. Scotland was prevailingly religious, yet her sons have dominated the leading walks in life for five cen­ turies. Well, this leader's words are before us and worth cudding on. .******** THEY GO OUTDOORS We clip the following from that fine religious paper The Chris­ tian World. The extract is from, an article headed “.Methodists To Go Out Doors.” “Rev. C. Ensor Walters desires his presidential year to be mairked by a revival of open-aii’ work amongst Methodists. He has arranged to inaugurate the campaign by a demonstration of Metho­ dists in Hyde Park (near the Marble Arch) next Wednesday. All the ministers and lay preachers of the London area have been urged to be present and to invite their members to attend also, and a choir of a thousand voices is to lead the singing. Addresses will be given by the president, vice-president, Gipsy (Smith, Rev. Norman Dun­ ning, Dr. Donald .Soper, Rev. J. Ellis, and Rev. E. A. Binks. The meeting will commence at 7.30 and will be preceded by community singing.” That makes good reading. For the life of us we fail to see why more of this sort of thing is not done. About the dreariest place- we ever get into is one of our churches of a hot summer morning. We saw something this summer that was altogether different. The Sunday School met under the trees by the church. Each young­ ster carried out his chair. Each class met where it deemed best. And how the youngsters enjoyed it! Then followed the church ser­ vice. Everybody sat where ho believed the sitting good, Familiar hymns were sung. There was no organ or anything of that sort, but everybody sang, The preacher- held forth as usual only less form­ ally. The biggest difference was in the remarks made, ’’The sot- vice was far too^ short,” was the general but somewhat unusual com* meat. “There’s nothing virtuous about being uncomfortable, even in a religious service. Why Not? Why not more such services in this good locality? “Methodists Go Outdoors.” Yes, that is the- way Methodists of old days found the way to golden service. When Methodism “went indoors,” they moved away from service, at least to some extent. When churches go- “outdoors” a great deal more there’ll be the right sort of sound of -going among the mulberry trees. , . Most St. Marys citizens take a pride in making their grounds and home surroundings attractive. It all helps to make the town look right. Unfortunately there are al­ ways the few indifferent ones. Some won’t even bother removing th© weeds from the front of their places a jofb that would take only a few minutes at any time. “It isn’t he town, it’s you.—St. Marys Journal- Argus. “If you want to know what is go­ ing on in a town get hold of the newspaper- from that town. If you want to know what kind of a town a town is, get hold of a paper from that town. If you want to know if a town has a live, aggressive and progressive bunch of merchants get hold of the newspapers. If the paper is filled with good, well-written ad­ vertisements you can be sure there is a live, up-to-date group of mer­ chants and you can be equally sure that there is a good community and a good town.”—-St. Marys Journal- Argus. It is well recognized theory if an individual, company, town or city, objects loud enough and long enough the desired object will be attained. The local Hydro Commissioners have been contending, backed by the town as a whole, that the hydro electric rates were to high. Their persisen-ce has been rewarded by se­ curing a reduction of ten per cent, for power, and that is something for which to be thankful.—Goderich Signal. ALERT BUT ALARMED Gather the tourist trade while you may, for who -knows but what this new fandangled “air conditioning” of homes will put a crimp in the tourist traffic in a few years’ time, says an exchange. Today, the city folks flee to the country to get the cooling breezes. Tomorrow may see the country sections hieing to the city for air-conditioning.—St. Marys Journal-jArgus. SHOWING BIGGER PROFITS (Kingsville Reporter) Some farmers in South Essex who are growing foodstuffs instead of tobacco, are in many instances this year realizing more per acre than they ever did from tobacco. Potatoes and green peas are among the more profitable crops, while early toma­ toes, cabbage, cauliflower, beans and melons are giving excellent profits. “I feel within me a. peace above all earthly dignities, a still and quiet conscience,”—Shakespeare B.

THE GREAT WHITE WAYS (From a recent broadcast) Last evening our subject was gas lighting. Tonight a word ou elec­ tricity. Only fifty years .have pass­ ed since the streets of Montreal were first lighted with electricity, replac­ ing gas. The first us© of it for lighting had been made by the Mont­ real Harbor Commissioners in 1877, nine years previously. In 1881 it was coming into general use in Tor­ onto. Electricity revolutionized city lighting and a few years talk of a “Great White Way” became quite a campaign plank for the enterprising ■municipal politicians all over the Dominion. London, Winnipeg and ’Saint John were just behind Toronto with elec­ tric lighting in early eighties and Vancouver in l-8>87 was abreast of the times. The Parliament Buildings at Ottawa were illuminated with electricity in the same year 1887. After that, electric lighting or “chained lightning” as the old joke­ sters termed it, spread rapidly thro’ the country. These figures have been taken from reports by the Public Works Department and th© Transportation and Public Utilities Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. 1 The ever popular Strolling Trou- badors, foreign, groups of vocalists and instrumentalists in national cos­ tume, will again be a Canadian Na­ tional Exhibition highlight this year on Music Day.
