Golden Text
Open Thou mine eyes, that I may
behold wonderous things not of Thy
law (Psa. 119:18.)
The Bible has a great deal to say,
about itself. 2t says its own words
are divine and inspired. Eight pas-
sages bearing on this have been
chosen for our lesson on the Holy
;Scriptures, from books written al-'
most 1,500 years before Christ down
through Bibical literature till we
reach a book written a generation
after Christ's ascension. But these
are only eight passages out of sev-
eral thousand in the Bible that claim
o be the actual words of God. We
must choose, therefore, between ac- ,
cepting the Bible as what it claims'
to be, God's own Word, or rejecting
it as a gigantic imposture.
Shortly before his death Moses,
who wrote the Pentateuch, or first
five books of the Bible (so said the
Lord Jesus Christ), told Israel that
"these words" which he was giving
them that day, and which constithte
most of the book of Deuteronomy,
were of such priceless value that they
were to be kept in the hearts of hie,
hearers, taught diligently unto their
children, talked about as they sat
at. ease in their house, as they walk-)
ed, and as they lay down and rose
up. They were to be bound for a I
sign upon their hands, as frontlets
between their eyes, and written up -
On the posts of their houses and on
their gates. Would any man have
dared say this about his own words?
Would bioses, meekest of all men,
have said it of his own words? The
only rational explanation is that
they were God's words given to
Moses by the Holy Spirit.
To Moses successor Joshua, whose
name is the same as "Jesus," the
Lord Himself commanded, "This
book of the law shall not depart out
of thy mouth; but thus shalt medi-
tate therein day and night." "The
law" was the five books of Moses,
Showed them that the central theme
of Tho Bible is Himself The Living
Word is the theme of the Written
Word, We shall never understand
the benutY of God's words until we
see, in nil our Bible study, Him who
is 'caltogether lovely." "He ex-
pounded unto them in all the script-
ures the things concerning Himself."
Like the noble l3ereans, God would
have us test everything by search-
ing "the Scriptures daily, whether
those things were so." We can
never go wrong if we really let God's
Word enlighten and guide us.
The closing lesson selection is one
of the greatest In the entire Book
concerning the Book, "All scripture'
is given by inspiration of God" Let
us not be misled by the false and
unscholarly translation of this verse e>
N. given in the Revised Version, which s;
!llIT;DO?�
Women are saying: "Pinklram's
Compound keeps me fit to do my
work." "I was nervous and all run
down, Now I eat better and sleep
better --"."It helped my thirteen
year old daughter. -"I took It be-
fore and after my baby was born,"

"good success if they were thus steed
ed and mastered, We have an in-
finitely richer Bible today than,
Joshua had; do we prize it and use
it as'he did his Book?
But some eight hundred years
later, after Israel and Judah had
been going steadily downhill in sin,
the law of God had been so shame-
fully
ha
fully neglected that people scarcely
knew it" existed. One day a high
priest found the book of the law
hidden away in the house of the
Lord. It was carried to good young
King Josiah of Judiah, who believed
itimplicity, had it read before the
people, and did all in his power to t
obey it, even restoring the passover
observance. Note the remarkable
and inspired tribute to Josiah be-
cause he respected God's law (2
Kings 23:25), Britain is greatly
blessed in having a Monarch who be-
lieves and reveres the Word of God.
Two centuries later occurred one
of the greatest occasions of nubile
reading and explanation of the
,.Scriptures in all history, when God's
people, the Jews, hdd bean permitted
to return from captivity in Persia
to Jerusalem Under Ezra and Ne-
hemiah the law of God was again
honored. A mighty concourse of
people gathered in a' great open air
meeting and the Bible was read a-
loud to them "from the morning un-
til mid-day." "And all the people
answered Amen, Amen, with lifting
up their hands; and they bowed their
heads, and worshipped the Lord with
their faces to the ground." What a
revival we should have if there could
be some mighty public reverences
for the Word like this today.
The Psalms are filled with inspir-
edstatements about the beauty, won-
der, perfection, converting and heal-
ing power, and light and life of the
Word of God. The lesson selection
is one of these. It does not take
great brains or a university training
to enable one to understand the
Bible, for ""the testimony of the
Lord is sure, making wise the sim-
ple". Notice some of the adjectives
applied to the word in this Psalm;.
perfect, sure, right, pure, enlighten-
ing, clean, enduring, true, righteous.
More desirable than gold, sweeter
than honey in the honeycdrmb, are
God's words. Great reward comes ,
from keeping them. Do we believe i
all this? If we do, do we act on it t
by faithful Bible reading and study?_

`An Advertisement is an invitation"
Homes that do not have the ad-
vantage of flowering bulbs during
the winter months can be brightened
by the use of one or more of the
varieties of flowers that retain their
colour when dried. There are sev-
eral kinds of these flowers, and all
of them easily grown in ordinary
garden soil Bulletin N. 60 of the
Department of Agriculture, at "Ot-
tawa, entitled "Annual Flowers",
names eight kinds of annual plants
that are useful for the purpose. Of
each of these there are a number of
varieties yielding sowers in many
beautiful colours. Most of these
plants are burdened with long and
difficult names, but as each is des-
cribed in the bulletin, one can read-
ily make wise selections whop de-
termining which to grow.
The bulletin contains many other
classes of plants suitable for such
purposes as edging beds, screens for
hedges, climbers, cut flowers, foli-
age plants, plants that grow in par-
tial shade, and those that are
drought resistant. It also includes
a number of :uncommon annuals
possessing real merit.
This work is the result of many
years of experimentation and study
with thousands of varieties of an-
nuals grown in plots, beds and bord-
ers at the Experimental Farm at Ot-
tawa. Copies are available at the

Peggy had been to the circus and
mother thought to impress a lesson,
"When dogs, and ponies, and mon
keys obey so well, don't you think a
little girl ought to obey even more
quickly?" she said.
"Yes, mummy,” was the instant
reply, "and I would if I had been
as well trained as they have."
