TRUMBULL (editor of The Sunday School Times) fr REBUILDING THE TEMPLE. of the house of God which is at Jer- usalem." Sunday, August 25—Ezra 2 : 1 to But Artaxerxes was succeeded by 6 :22 ; (Psalm 122:1) another King, Dales, Haggai and Zechariah, prophets of God, called Golden Text: upon the Jews in the name of God, I was glad when they said unto and a building revival followed.

It is a story of true religion, plots The Persian Governor Tatnai did politics, triumph for the politicians, not like this, and challenged the buil- discouragment for the worshippers tiers. But the work went right on, of God, revival of religion, further The adversaries tried the old plot ploting, defeat of the politicians, vie- ever again.

A remnant of God's people, cour- moval of the gold and silver vessel•, ageous end devoted, had returned from the temple to isaoyion, and from Babylon to their land and its then the return of those vessels to Capital, Jerusalem. These children Jerusalem under Cyrus. of Israel were in various cities, and But the plotters overreached they came together at Jerusalem them selves, They had the Nardi• and built an altar to 'God to offer hood to suggest that King Darius burnt offerings in accordance with search the official archives and see God's law given to Moses. This was a good beginning ; they established the ancient worship, keeping the feast of tabernacles and the contin- ual burnt -offering. "But the foundation of tea temple of the Lord was not yet laid." So they went on to than, the masons, carpenters and builders worked bard until the foundation of the tem- ple had been laid. Then was a time of rejoicing ! They sang praises to God, and all "the people shouted with a loud shout." But some of the old people, very old, who "had seen the first house" or temple more than seventy year before, wept because of their memories, and we read that the shout of joy could not be di- tinguished from the noise of the weeping. There were adversaries in the land, foreigners, perhaps Persians, who wanted to see the work on the house of God and worship of God stopped. They came and asked the amen of Judah and Benjamin if they might not work with thorn in building the temple. It is an old and subtle method of attack : offering to help, with the purpose of hindering. God's people saw through it end de- clined this "help". So the adversar- ies did what they could in other ways to weaken the workers and block the -work. They could not do much while Cy- rus who had authorized the build- ing of the temple, resigned ; b:t when other Kings followed. and Ar- taxerxes has on this throne rrhev took oflit•ial aition. They wrotea ,ettsr to the Rin: complaining that the Jews who had creme from his domin- ion to J, r•a,,a•ent were "uncle->rab'+ eitizr,ns,' e SY'iy thr,ir•tour -. tsn':i '.. rt on .:•ii g' the "re.b- . r; a: t li r,'. Jer- usalem. Tee al r Tre 11s R r. n.r r Ir �.'+i;- .r. t e•1 woo: whether Cyrus ever had authorized the rebuilding of God's house at Jer- usalem. Perhaps they hoped that no such records could be found. Their hope was vain. Darius made the search and found the record which tet forth fully the decree or Cyrur for the rebuiding of God's house at Jerusalem Explicit details were found and even the command that the expenses be met from the King's treasury. Derius's action was prompt and decisive. Ile ordered Governor Te- tnai to "Let the work of this house of God alone; let the Governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God 'n His place.', He even went further than this. He gave orders that the expenses of the work should be met from the tri- bute collected in that territory; that all they needed in the way of an- imals for sacrifices should be provid- ed "without fail"; and that whoever should alter this decree of the King should he hanged on a gallows made from the timber pulled down from his own house, while "his house be made a dunghill for this." Fin- ally Darius called upon God to des- troy all Kings and people that shall put to their hand to alter and to des- troy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I, Darius, have made a decree: let it be done with speed." Crestfallen. Tatnai, the Governor, and his political companies actually had to carry out this Royal decree.

Helping9 Fanners to Improve Seed Montreal, August 17—Practically every province in Canada, during the past spring, conducted an inten- sive campaign among the farmers for the improvement of seed for the grain and forage crops. This has been the custom in most province for some years, and has been a strong influence in raising the qual- ity of seed sown. The Canadian Na- tional Railways have beer fn! some actively co-operatinn: an this move- ment by the operation of "Better Seed Trains" in several of the pro- vinces, on which seed cleaning mach- inery was installed, seed cleaned, and demonstrations and lectures given. Six of these trains were open need darine the past season, two of these being in Saskatchewan and one ea!•h In the nrovinces ee Alber- ta, Manitoba, Ontarlu, and Nova Scotia. The total attendance of farmers and others at the lectures and de- monstrations on these trains was around 38,000. Seed cleaning cen- ters are being rapidly established in most of the provinces. Ontario re- ports that in Western and central parts of that province more than 125 privately owned seed cleaning plants, supplied with the most mod- ern machinery, existed this spring. In Nova Scotia, the Provincial De- partment of Agriculture and the Federal Seed Branch have co-operat- ed in establishing seed -cleaning cen- ters with bonuses to power machines. In the western provinces very mo- dern seed cleaning establishments are maintained.
