ISRAEL ENSLAVED IN EGYPT.
Sunday, July 4. -Exodus 1:1-14.
Golden Text:
The Lord will not cast off his peo-
ple (Psa. 94:14)
Three months' studies in Genesis
have been completed; now we have
almost three months in. Exodus. We
could hardly find two books more
widely different in character and
subject matter; yet each is of the
Holy Spirit's authorship, written by
the hand of Moses.
Exodus has been called the Book
of Departure -"the portico of the
Pilgrimage leading to the King'e
banquet hall." In Dr. .T. W. Wed -
dell's volume, "Your Study Bible,"
giving illuminating views of each of
the sixty-six books of the Bible, are
the following comments on Exedus:
The key word is Passover; the key
text 12:11 "Ye shall eat it in haste;
it is the Lord's passover."
The book may he divided into two
parts: 1. Preparation for the Exodus.;
preparation of Moses (2-4); prepara-
tion o' Pharaoh (5-11); preparation
of Israel (12, 13). II. Ths, Exodus:
Egypt to Sinai, (14-18); at Sinai
(19-40)•
Dr: Weddell suggests discovening
our own narnes for the nations chap-
ters, thus: Bondage Chapter (1)
Bulrush Chapter (2); Burning Bush
Chapter (3); Moses' Rod Chapter
(4); Pharaoh's Hardness Chapter
(5); God's Goodness' Chapter (6);
and so on.
The fourteen verses making up this
week's lesson cover seven suggestive
points:
1. The great family circle of Jac-
ob and Joseph (verses 1-5)•
2. The paseing away a Joseph and
"all that generation" (6).
3. The amazing increase of -Tenni
as a people' (7),
4. The arising of a new dynasty,
"which knew not Joseph" On
5. The new king's shrewd study
of the significance of this alien peo-
ple in their midst (9, 10.)
6, The terrific ' affliction of the
Israelites by the Egyptians (11, 13,
14).
7. The increasing enlargeinent of
Ie•rael under affliction, with Egypt's
resulting fear (12).
It seems like a strange, uncalle.d
for, and disheartening contrast with
the bright promises made by God to
Abraham, Isaac and numb as' to the
blessings he was pledged to lavisli
upon their descendants, and the
blessings that were going to come to
all the families Of the earth through
them. )3ut God makes no mistakes;
and we can see now, why and how
this very affliction in Egypt was
necessary' for Israel if she is to be-
come the redeemer -nation of the
world. She herself must know the
meatiinn ef )reelf and sloe 00310
hot know that if thene Were nothing
to be redeemed from.
The seventy members of the fam-
ily of nacob that were in Egypt, in-
cluding Joseph, all died; but Israel
did not die. Nor will Israel ever die.
:We have God's word for that; so
this peculiar people "were fruitful,
and increased abundantly, and multi-
plied*, and waxed exceeding mighty."
In God's own good time -and that
time May be at band now -He will
see that -Israel muitiplies again enor-
mously, for tbe blessing to the whole
world which she alone can bring.
The new king was shrewd enough
to see the possible (Unger- of Inetel's
presence in Egypt. Bat he was not
shrewd enough to see the wisdom of
making this people his powerful
friends. Theee who eat themselves
against God and against God's peo-
ple always make foolialt, blunders.
Theo is no wisdom that tan oppose
God. So Pharaoh's ,attenapt to break
down the people by. persecution
only built them up. They were made
to serve with cetiel severity; their
labors undoubtedly added to the
splendor and glory of Egypt as a tem-
poral power; but Israel 'thrived un-
der thie treatment, even as tam Lerd
assures His disciples they shall theive
spiritually at any rate, unifier per-
secution.
the increening 1061rigill cY,stztal
, became an increasing grief to the
Eyptians. The Rev. J. Russell How-
den, of Englamn now writing on these
'lessons for the Sunday School Times,
makes an interesting comment on a
word in the verse that tens us the
Egyptians "were grieved" because of
the children of Israel. Mr. Howden
. says:
, "The Hebrew verb (grieved) is a
very expressive one. It mearis, Mer -
1 ally, to be sick. Its seeendary mean-
ings include the ideas of being
strangled and of fearing. Probably
it signifiesthat the Egyptians were
cramped and prevented from spread -
3 ing out their settlements Into the ex-
tremely fruitful land of Goshen.
And also that they were really afraid
' of the growing numbers and power
of this hardier and purer race. Noth-
ing makes people .so cruel as fear."

At Bayfield Picnic -Large Crowd
Hear Their Provincial Cabinet
Ministers Speak
Bayfield, June 24.-1.1pon the third
anniversary of the Drury adminis-
tration's defeat at the polls, sone
5,000 Conservatives of Huron County
gathered here yesterday at a huge
political picnic and heard Premier
Ferguson, Peovineial Treasurer Price
and Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister
of Mines, discuss the record of tbe
Provincial Goveenment. The key-
note of the occasion was supplied by
Premier Ferguson's reminder of Con-
servative promises made in 1928 of
honesty in action and purpose and of
Reeky in legislation. The promises
had boon kept, Hon. Mr. Ferguson
averred, in a manner whicli canoed
the Government to deserve well from
the electors when an appeal should
he made.
The occasion was one. of exception-
al political enthasiaem and the and-
ierlet) listened with every expression
of approval to expositions of GOY-
mrrimeht policy, which lasted nor over
2 hours, Nom Mr. Ferguson spent

HON. W. R. MOTHERWELL
wet i o nate ian a e eel
prodncts from its 700,000 farms it
a country without a peer, and just
such a country is Canada. Canada
has a moderate and healthy climate,
great, farming possibilitiesfor those
in a position to take advantage of
them and insures, to all who well
wor kdiligently and intelligently on
her lands, a comparatively sure re-
turn lin their labors. During the
past ivarter of a century Canada has
increased her output of hard spring
wheat by over 1,000 per cent., arid
he has now attained the enviable dis-
tinction of being the largest exporter
of wheat in the world. The produc-
tion of live, stock and live stock pro-
ducts, of Coarse. grains, fruit, timber
precincts, minerals, etc., have also in-
creased with almost relative rapid,
educational cost of 525,000,000 per
year. He subsequently referred to
the efforts which the Government
was putting forth upon behalf of a
better export market for agricultutt-
al products, and wound up by de-
claring his Government's intention
of putting courageously before the
people the 0.T.A. policy which it
should honestly consider to be most
in the public interests. In framing
the policy, he said amidst applause,
no attempt would ba made to "nide
behindplebiscites, to hide behind the
skirts of the women, or behind any
church organizetion."
No reference was made by the
Primo Minister as to when the elec-
tion would come.
Politica! "Tandem" Derided
Hoe, Mr. Price derided the poli-
tical "tandem" which was now ap-
Peelitig to the public to return it
to power over the present adminis-
tration. It coasted of the old ROSS
horse, led out by Liberal leader
Sinclair, ring -boned and spavined af-
ter 82 years of the saddle, and the
U. P. 0, horse, led by lifilaste. Drury

strensel that it was the Federal Gov-
ernment policy whieh determined

teetion, he urged, was vitally 11,a,..11-
sary if the vountry was to he (le-
i velment and opportuniths for nes
pleement created for its! :entente.
Hon. Mr. Price was the first ;meek-
er of the afternoon, Ho discusstid
the Government's record with lte
finances, emphasizing how a defieR
of 515,000,000 which had been the
C,10.0.'s legacy had been cut fire
to 58,000,000 and then to 55,000,-
000.
Happy Over Opposition
Premier Ferguson in his opening
paragraphs had a spirlited return for
Liberal Leader Sinclair's attacks up-
on him during a recent speaking tour.
"I just with to ask Mr. Sinclair one
question," he said. "When in all bit
career as Liberal leader 001 he (tver
himself offer the Government ono
single helpful suggestion, or anything
besides petty, captious criticism?"
The Premier expressed himself at
happy over the opposition of the Lib-
eral organs, the Star and the Globe,
because experience had taught him
that the political diagnoses of theee
organs were so rarely correct.
The Premier turned then to a pre-
sentation of his policy as Minister of
Education. He commended first to
the consideration of the public his
Proposal to do the nrst year of uni-
veesity work in the high schools. The
plan, he said, had to recommend it
the advantage that would accrue to
the student through securing his in-
troduction to higher education in a
familiar, intimate environment, and
also the financial saving which would
accrue to parents and to the prov-
ince.
Township School Boards
Dicussing then his proposal for
township school boards, the Premier
urged that it be seriously received
as a non-political question. The coet -
and efficiency of rural education, he
said, supplied one of the crucial pro-
blems of the time.
Those who disagreed with the town
ship board idea, he urged, should not
be content with "throwing brick-
bats" at it, but should seek to assist
by suggestions in solving a problem
which was urgently that of the whole
P"Pl
Declaring that $25,000,000 per
year was 'spent upon the rural sellool
system of the Province annually.
Hon. Mr. Ferguson stated that offic-
ials of hie department had assured
hien that a saving of 25 per cent
could be effected within five years by
the adoption of the Township Board
plan. The objection M the plan, the
Premier believed, lay largely in the
sentiment whieh exieted in the rural
Parts of the Province for "the little
red schoolhouse." The matter, how-
ever, he believed, shorld be treated
on the basis of advantage to the
youth of the Province and of econ-
omy. •
The Premier gave attention next
to the Government's work upon be-
half of agriculture. He recalled that
until two years ago the Province had
eticeived an annual subsidy of 5300,-
000 for this work -from Ottawa, and
declared, amidst applause that, not-
withstanding its discontinuance, the
Government had increased Rs annual
expenditure of $2,000,000 upon be-
half of agriculture to one of 52,-
500,000.
As his .final topic the Premier die -
cussed the 0. T. A. go reiterated
Previous statements to the effect that
the Government was carefully can-
vassing nubile opinion, and empha-
sized that a law must stay upon tho
statute books as long as it was favor-
ed by the people, and that a law
which did not bane the support of
the people met be. repealed or modi-
fied. When the Government had de-
cided what it believed to be public
epenion, Hon. Mr. Ferguson eaid, it
would terminate the policy which, ni
the light of its discoveries, should be
considered to be most hi the public
interest, and would submit the pen,
sty to the people as a general election
%sue.

"Know Your Auto" -
An inaccurate and faulty deeerip-
tion of cars is responsible for mann
of the difficulties encountered 'n
identifying and recovering stolen
cars. Motorist% everywhere are
warned to use special care in record-
ing ferns about their cars, such as
color description, license number, en-
gine number and other secret marks.
To Make a Vent For a Can
An Meal vent for an oil or gaso
line can is made with the use of a
valve item from an old inner tube.
Cut the valve and then punch 0. hole
in the van to provide a snug fit for
the stem. Insert the etent, using a
nut, and solder securely in place. If
a gasoline tun,' be sure there are no
fumes in the can before soldering.
Crankcase Oil Tells a Tale.
Examine the oil that is removed
from the crankcase. It tells the story
of the condition of the engine. Wat-
er in the oil indicates a faulty cylin-
der intact gasket or a cracked Cylin-
der head. Small - prtieles of metal
indicate undue wear on bearings or
other working parts. If the oil looks
at all out of the ordinary, take a
sample to the repair man for inspec-
tion.
Tire Lore
Motorists whose cars are equipped
with high-pressure tires who hope to
get balloon tire comfort and easy
riding qualities by running their tires
at low pressure, may achieve their ;
purpolle to Inc as comfort goes, but
it will be at a terrific cost in tire
mileage. Running with high-pres-

To Get the Most Out of Gas
To secure the biggest gasoline mile
age adjuet the carburetor to give as
lean a mixture as possible. Run with
the circulating water as near the
boiling point as practicable. Keep
the pistons gas tight M their cylin-
ders, by attention to valves and pis-
ton rings. Make sure that the spark
is advanced as far as the engine will
stand without knocking. Be sure
that lubrication of all part's is ae
nearly perfect as it can be made.
Run at moderate speeds as much of
the time as possible.
When greasing the car, examine
leaves of the springs in center, as a
break will throw the strain on next
leaf. Keep the sprin tight to pre-
vent breaking springs.

The purchasing. public is daily becoming
greater readers of advertisements, The reason
for this is that they profit by so doing. They.
find the goods they want described in the right
manner, It is news to .the purchaser.
That being the case, it behooves the wide-

his advertising matter carefully, so that when
the customer comes in to buy, he or she will find
that the goods are as represented..
Those who do hot read advertisements are
