TRUMBULL (editor of Trio ¢u tday achooi Tirane) r? WORLD PEACE THROUGH turd does not mean that men should MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING November 10 :— Isaiah 2 : 2-4 ; 5-10 ; 19 :28-25 ; Acts 1'7 : 22-28 ; :Ephesians 4 4-0, 18-19 ; John 4 : 20-21. Golden Text They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain ; for the eurth shall be full of the knowledge of. the Lord, as the waters cover the eea. (iso, 11:9). Will there ever be universal peace on earth? A war correspond am who has seen very great interna• Lionel conflict since 1894 writes in a recent magazine article : "One thing that gives me a real laugh is this talk about universal peace and general disarmament. suppose they du disarm all Europe and America and we do have "universal" peace in those small corners of the world. Then the black hordes'in Africa will grab the nearest club and come ac- ross and conquer, Suppose the blacks of Africa allowed themselves to be disarmed. Then the gorilla would reign supreme." This is the view of many experienced and worldly wise men. Are they right? They are not right. From men human reasoning, and viewing things Duly from the possibilities of human nature, they are entirely right. But God's word says there still will be uni- versal peace. God knows more about it: than man. God's Word also tells us how uni vasal peace is to come. It is, as the Icrson title suggests, through mutual understanding? Will it be won and maintained by treaties between na- tions? There is no suggestion of this in any of the Scripture ease flare making up this 1eeson, or any- where else in the Bible. The whole prophetic Word, which declares witri the abeoiute knowledge and author- ita of God that universal peace will rome, is a unit also in declaring that 'r will never came by men's efforts, but only when God brine's it to peas by his supernatural intervention. The reason for this is 'plain to any thoughtful Christian who- nom:mien!, the meaning and consequences of sin "From whence come ,,•rigs and fiyht- ic.ne among you? Come they not I race, even of vour lasts 'that war in your members?" (Jas. •t • 11. War is an inevitable conseanence n1 cin. Men cannot end sin by enutnei understanding or treaties, or by en':• efforts of their own. Only God ran deal effectively with sin. Therefore n -11v God can bring a universal and firt,l end to war. This plain teaching of the Scrip• inot avert wars when they coo. i Christian people should welcome, and pray for, every possible pre• vention of 'war. Christian people should do all in their power to eii 1 courage those mutual understand- ; iogs between men and nations that j make for peace rather than war, Especially should we pray "for Rings, and for all that are in auth- ority ; that we may lead a quiet and peaceful life in all godliness and honesty" (1 Tim. 2 : 2). But in do- les; so Christian people, whether rrivatecitizens or ru:ers nations should remember two things. First, that only the new birth Dom above in the individual life, by faith in Christ as Saviour, can change human nature from a war- ring one to one that is really peace- able in love. Seconds, that only the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, who is the Christ, the Son of God, can establish universal 'peace on earth, and that He will do this only when He returns in person to this earth to reign and rule as He has promised. Then it is, as Isaiah prophesies, "in the last days, that the mountain cf the Lord's house shall be estab- lished in the top of mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills ; and all nations shall flow unto it." "Mountains" is the Scripture sym- bol of a Kingdom. The Lord's King- dom shall be established above all other Kingdoms ; when He brings thio to pass all nations on earth shall recognize Him and turn to Him. Even then, as Isaiah shows, indi viduals or nations will try to rebel against His rule, "and He shall judge among the nanous, and shall rebuke many people." Only then under His universal reign, will all swords be beaten into plowshares. Perhaps the most amazing pt'ophecy of all is, not only the nations then shall no longer "lift up swords" ai,ainst one another, but "neither shall they learn war any mere " There will then be ro more military schools or naval aceclemies in the world. The worldly wise magazine writ- e-, writing from the best knowledge the natural man can have, says that if all men disarmed themselves "the gorilla would reign supreme." He overlooks the fact that the nature of the gorilla is going to be chang^ cd when the Lard cones again. Is- aiah's prophecy is not finur'ative, but literal, that "the Waif ,,hall dwell with the lamb. and the leopard shall lie down with the kid ; and the calf and the young lion and the fat - ling together : and a little child shall learl then."

Isaiah's prophecy concere:mg Egypt, Assyria, in Bible times, stood ,for the two great world enemies of of God's chosen people, Israel. Egypt and Assyria were often at war with each other, and they took ;very opportunity to raid or sab- yuga.te Israel. But when the Lord tomes again He will deal even with these worldy nations, smiting ant' healing till they return to brim (Iso. 9:22).

Only the Prince of Peace can give this worn -torn permanent, peace, even as He alone can give the individual soul peace with God (Pum. 5 : 1).

President of a new Western La- bor Party which will confine its ' efforts to the four Western Prov - i feces and Northern Ontario. Mr. Whalen's Mistake Mr. Grover Whalen, New York's new police commissioner has step - pea into hot water by advancing claims of superiority for his depart- ment, over Britain's famous Scot- land Yard. "I:8 Mr. Whalen's statement is correct," a London official success must have attended reorganization ' of his force. It is noteworthy that. in 1028, Scotlnad Yard investigated 18 murders and secured 11 convic- tions. The other seven wanted men commuted suicide. There is NO my- stery unsolved. During 1928 there were more than 200 murders in rsi York, and seven convictions. The first five months of 1920 show 134 murders and one conviction statistics show that the odds are eleven to four that a murderer in • New York will never be indicated. The odds are eleven to two that a murdered will never be convicted even of manslaughter. The chances of being held up and robbed in Now York are 36 times greater than in London. These statistics should hold Mr: Wealen for a while. They should be interesting, also, to Mr. Hale Thompson, if that gentleman is still mayor of Chicago.

It appears, however, that if British educational methods have anything to do with the efficiency of Britisn police forces, it would be an excel- lent idea for New York, Chicago, Detroit and a few other American centres, to copy some of the me- thods in question. Over in old-fash• Toned Britain, they still regard mur- der and cling tenaciously to the be- lief that it is the duty of a police department to find the guilty man when a citizen has been done to death. Of course, this may be a worn-out idea, but the British per- sist in hanging on to it. And, per- haps it has something to do with the total number of murders chalk- ed up in the British Isles each year. —a total that is ridiculously small when compared with that of a single large American city.

They comprised Southdown, Cheviots, Hampshires, Leicesters, Cotswolds ana Lincolns. It is the largest sin- ' glc shipment ever sent, but the Canadian Co-operative Wool Grow- er': expect that next year's ship- ment will be even greater, C=301� Valuable Rainfall Recent rains have been of un- told value to the prov:nce. Reports from the various countries indicate that while too late to materially improve pastures, the widespread rainfall has improved fall wheat wonderfully and has permitted fall plowing to proceed. Live stock is 1 generally reported in poor condition and with grain scarce and feed high the whole milk supply is short in all 1 parts of the province. Most of the apple and root crops hve been har- vested. Ontario Potatoes "Ontario potatoes are staging a come -back", states J. A. Carroll, of the Crops and Markets Branch + tarin has always grown good po- From reports of agricultural re- presentatives during the past two weeks, it appears that there will be a decided falling off in the area of fall wheat harvested next year. In all probability, the land on which it was intended to son* fall wheat will be utilized for some other grain for whirh there is a steady demand for this grain for industrial purposes in Ontario practically assures the grower of consistently good dispor,- ition at good domestic prices. As a re- sult of several years' special devel- opment effort on the part of On- tario growers and a splendid har- vest season this year, there should be available next spring almost un- limited supplies of seed barley of tae finest quality—O. A. C. No. 21. 0-71:1i Helping the Newcomer There is a moral in this little story : In the spring of 1929, Wil - Lem A. Pullman, a Welsh miner, landed in Canada with his wife and family of nine children. They had no money and no prospects of work The immigration agent got in touch with Mr. Elon Weir, a Nor- folk farmer. The latter furnished them with a tenant house, hired the head of the family, and found pos. itions of neighboring farms for four of the older boys and two of the girls. All have made good. In the course of a year Mr. Pullman ex- pects to take up his own farm and with the assistance of his boys he should become a highly successful farmer. It shows the possibilities of making these newcomers into ,tec•ful members of the rural corn- County.

Fighting the Corn Borer - According to Prof, Caesar, who - has directed the war against the Earopean corn borer in Ontario, a considerable improvement has been drown in the borer -infested coun- ttue during the past year, and al- though one or two counties in Wes- tern Ontario still have a serious in- festation and the farmer's unremit- ting nremitting vigilance will admit no relaxes tion, the alarming aspects havebeen vastly mitigated. The work of the county inspectors during the past Iwn years and the increased co-op- eration of farmers generally have a prominent role in the clean-up, Prof. Caesar is now concentrating on a machine that will cut the corn stalks close to the ground and make "plowing under" an easy process. Next year he hopes that this mach inn will find a general use in the corn growing area. Farmers who de- sire to learn more about the proper methods of cleaning up their fields end of waging effective war against .hc borer should obtain from their agricultural representatives one or other of the instructions pamphlets which have been issued by Prof. Ceesar.
