The cherry crop has come through bravely — perhaps there are 'fewer cherries and the price a bit higher but in Canada we are lucky in finding them bright and flavoursome as ever on the mar­ ket and siffee we can use the bottled fruit pectin method in making them into jam or jelly we are just as far ahead because the short-boiling takes co much less fruit than the old-fash­ ioned way did. Then think of the extra flavour that is held in them because it is not all stewed out as it often is by long-boil methods. Cherry jam . is an asset indeed this ‘ particular year — how often you will thank your lucky stars that you did know about bottled fruit pectin when - you survey your rows, of cherry jam or jelly. Old-fashioned methods would have given you so much less and with an inferior,Jlavour.

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time — The conversion of Saul oc­ curred A.D. 36. His sojourn in Arabia' and events immediately. connected therewith occurred in. A.D. 36-3S. And Paul’s arrest in Jerusalem was prob­ ably in 57 A.D. The Epistle to the Ga­ latians was written probably at|out A. D. 57. Paul’s First Epistle to Tim­ othy was written about 66 A.D. Place —.The conversion of Saul took place just outside the city of Damascus, his arrest and defence that followed, recorded in Acts 22, occur­ red in Jerusalem. The Epistle to the Galatians was written from. Corinth to the churches in the Roman prov­ ince, of Galatia. The First Epistle to Timothy was written' from Rome, where Paul was a prisoner. "But Saul, yet breathing, threaten­ ing and slaughter against the discip­ les of the Lord.” This refers back to the preceding Act of Saul’s persecu­ tions in Acts 8 : 1-3. "Went unto the high priest,” and asked of him letters to Damascus unto the synagogues.’’ Damascus was. one of the most anc­ ient cities of the world (.Gen. 14 : 15), and had been, from its earliest peFiod, identified with the history of the Jews, a gteat number of whom were living thefe at the time of- Saul. , That if he found any that were of the Way.” This deeply significant title for the Christian faith and life is common in the book of Acts (see e.g. 19 :9, 23; 22 : 4; 24 :14, 22); more fully given. by the apostle Peter as "the way of the truth” (2 Pet. 2 : 2). "Whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem." Paul’s - purpose was quite to put out th® name, of Christ by destroying all the godly cruelly. "And ak he journeyed, it came to pass that he drew nigh unto Damas­ cus.” It is hot known just how far. out' of the city the miracle about to be described took .place. "And suddenly there shone round about him a light out of heaven.” In Acts 22 ; 6 and 26 13 wp are told that the time of day was about noon, and that the light Which he fiaw was "above the bright­ ness of the sUn. } "And he fell upon the earth, and heard a. voice saying unto him.” Ih !2 : 9 Jt is said that Paul’s compan- they or un­ spoke; uaui, uaux, .pciacn-utcav thOU me?” This announcement’ must have struck. Paul • with astonishment Je­ sus, he thought was dead and buried, and the followers of Jesus? in his mind, were enthusiasts of a false Messiah, the enemies of the true ' faith. ■ ■ • • • • ■ ■ 'i “And he said, Who art thou, Lord?’’ The title, Lord, is here used in .rev­ erence and awe struck response , to'the question of a speaker in whose, voice accompanied as it was by the super-, natural light, Saul recognized a di- vine utterance. "And he said' I am Jesus whom thqu persecutest.” This was the name that Paul so much hat­ ed. He knew this person actually had lived upon the earth, it w&s Jesus who had been crucified in Jerusalem. It was the same Jesus who was now speaking to him from heaven. The conclusion that he was the Son of Gqd Was inevitabie for Paul and arrived at instantaneously. “But rise, and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do. And the men that journeyed with him. stood speechless, hearing the , voice, but beholding no man.” A long journey, in the days of Saul, was not made by one alone, but in company with others, for the sake of protection as well as companionship. "And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing; and they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damas­ cus.” This blindness was certainly un­ answerable evidence that the appear­ ance given to him had been a reality. "And he was three days without sight, and did neither eat nor drink.” Undoubtedly- Paul, during these days, prevented from beholding, .the physi- cal and material objects . about him, held precious communion with God. "And Ananias departed and'entered into the house; and laying his hands on him said, Brother Saul. ’.' The very address that Ananias uses in 'begin­ ning to speak, to this former persecu­ tor must have melted the heart’ of Saul. ’ ’ -ma.:.'. "The Lord, even Jesus, who appear­ ed unto thee in the way which thou earnest, hath sent me, that thou may- est receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy ^Spirit.’’ Saul receded the Holy Ghost through an ordinary disciple. Usually the gift of the spirit was conferred only by apostolic hands but Soul was not to be depehdent on he twelve, and he whom the Lord had himself called ,in peculiar fashion re­ ceived the gift of the Spirit in quite a different way from that in which it came to ordinary believers. "And- straightwaythere fell from his eyes as It were scales, and he re­ ceived his sight; and he arose and was-baptized." By ..this baptism Saul Was visibly made a' member of the Jody of Christ. ’ .
