TRUMBULL (Editor of The Sunday School Times) JOSHUA, ISRAEL'S NEW LEAD ER ler, the River Euphrates." God makes very extreme promisee to His children. "There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy will .not fail thee, nor forsake thee." Is not that a stupendous promiee? But our Joshua, the Lord Jesus Christ, Pledges His word to us that "Sin shall not have dominion over you., for ye are not under the law, but under grace" (Rom. 5:14), so that we are authorized to say "we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us" (Rom, 8:37). Joshua's vietorious weapon, exact- ly like our .own, was to be the Word of God. The guarantee, of our vic- tory is "the sword of the Spirit, which Ss the word of God" (Eph. (1: 17), It was the same for ‘Joehrsa: "This book of the law ehall not de- part out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein (lay and night, that thou invest observe to de ae,cording to all that is written therein: for then thole shalt make thy way Prosperous and then thou shalt have good sur - cess." Arc We feeding upon the Word of - God, the Bible, every day as eagerly . and confidently AS we partake of food for -our borlies,? If NVO are not, how can we hope to have courage or victory or faith or success? For "faith" eometh by hearing, and hear- ing, by the Word of God" (Rom. 10: 17), • Tfewe esteem the words of Ms mouth more than our necessary food (job. 23: 12), and trust an i abide in Him who is the Living Word, we shall live in such -continual triumph OS we have never dared hope for. For our Joshua is "able to do ex- ceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think" (Eph. 3: 20.) Sunday, Oct. 24.—Nurnbees 2 18-2d; Joshua 1: 1-9. • • Golden Text: Be strong and of good courage for the Lord thy God is with th whithersoever thou goest. (Joshua 9). Joshua was a man who lookee mo at God than he did at circumstane He was one of those two spies w dared to trust God when 'the oth ten spies were afraid to. He plead with Israel at that time, "Rebel n ye against the Lord, neithor fear the people of the land; for they a bread for us....the Lord is with u fear them not" (Num. 11:01, An now, almost 40 years -later God ehoN ed Joshua that it was safe to tru Him. It is never safe to do anythin else, though Israel and ourselve havc, been slow to learn this. Just before Moses died he ask:). tho Lord to appoint his sueeessor a leader of Israel. The Lord respont ed by instructing Moses to •cake Josh ua, "a man in whpm is the Spirit, consecrate him before the eriest an all the congregation of Israel, form ally and officially appoint him, an "thou shalt put of thine honor upo him," said the Lord to IlIoses. (Num 27: 15-20). Moses was 120 Year old at this time, 'and Joshua was 85 but that was young for men of Co in the days. Joehea led In•seel sue cessfully and victoriously for 2 years after that, dying at the age 110 (Josh. 24: 20.) Moses is the -outeanding Scripture type of the law. The law of God, 0 hats been well said, "could never giv a sinful people victory," for the law condemns sinners, it cannot save them R takes God's grace to do tha and Joshua is a type of Christ, who does for us that whieh the law could never do. "For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ" (John 1:17), The Very name Joshua means Je- hovah -Saviour, je-hoshue. The fol- lowing note from the Seofiele Ref- erence Bible is valuable: "Joshua is a type of Christ, the 'Captain of our salvation' (Heise 2:10, 11). The more important points arm (1) He comes after Moses (John 1:17-; _Rom. 8: 3, 4; 10:4, 6; Heb. 7: 18, 19; Gal, 3: 23-25). (2) He :leads to victory (Rom. 8:37; II. Cor, 1;10; 2: 14). (3) He is our Advocate when we have suffered defeat (Josh. 7: 6-9; I. john 2:1). (4) He allots our pro- portions (Uph, 1: 11., 14; 4: 8-11)." Is there some insuperable banter between us and a blessing Unit Gbd has promised us?' This was the situ- ation that confronted Israel as Joehua tiook comm -and. The barrier was _Jordan. But here was the word of the Lord: "Now, therefore, arise go over this jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them." That is God's, word to us coneeening every difficulty that arises between as and the fulfilment of .His promises. We are to move stestight f award into the difficulties; God will take care of theme ---and of us. Another great word that -God spoke to Joehust and Israel a that time, equally for us, is this: "very place that the sole of your foot shall .tread upon, that hav 1 given unto you." In other words, we must "pees - am our possessions." They are ours oonvenated tous by God Himself; but we shall not have theists in full ek- perieuce and enjoyment until we take them by faith. Faith is 0 cons tinually inereasing possessing of that which belongs to us. People somethnes think that the laid pledged to Abraham and the Jews is a little land. They do err, not knowing the Scripthres. It is et tremendous tract, tunning from Egypt to Mesopotamia; for God said to Joshua that day that it was 'froin the Wilderness (Of Sinai) and this Lebanon.even unto the great Av.

She was born at Alexan dria in the third century. As Christian she was tortured by havin, her teeth broken and extracted, af ter which'she was burnt at the stake When under torture she is said to have prayed that those Witt/ remem ber the day of her martyrdom anc their prayers realized the pain she suffered might never have toothache or headache. For many centuries her intercession was sought for relief of pain- incident to dental disease. In former years the .chief work of dentists. consisted in relief of pain but the field of activity has gradually extended until itincluded the making of dentures to provide mastication efficiency and to restore normal ap- pearance. Modern dentistry, how- ever, goes beyond the relief of pain and the construction of artificial substitutes for lost teeth. All health authoritiQs realize all dental infec- tion and the inability to properly chew the, food are very detrimental to health and consequently the den- tist of to -day is an important worker in that branch of the healing art known as preventitiee medicine,. He not only endeavors toprevent ill health by eliminating mouth infec- tion, but he also goes to the root of the evil and tries to prevent dental diseases. The secret of success in preventitive dentistry is dental health education and in order to present the program for mouth health to the peo- ple, the Ontario department of health is organizing .erti Ontario Dental. Health Day, to be held on 114' ednes- day, October 20. The activities associated with this effort will be of -a two -fold nature. In the first place a general publicity campaign will be carried on through the 1180 of motion pictuee films, radio talks, newspaper articles and public meetings, and in the second place, the dentists will- give individual exam illation and advice on mouth care to all who seek it on that clay. This ser- vice will be rendered by the dentists withwilt cost to the patients and it is hoped a large number of citizens vein_ take advantage of this opportun- ity to reeeive valuable aseistance 111 their efferts 'co maintain mouth health.

He therfore decided to stake everything on the ehances of a naval battle, and for the first time gave orders that his ship s should deliber- ately seek an engagement with the dreaded enemy. The combined ileets of France and Spain, which were under the com- mand of Admiral Villeneuve, had ben anchored for several weeks in the security of the harbor at Cadiz, but on the 191h October they sailed out to sea. News of their movement was conveyed to Nelson, who had been lying in wait for them since the end of September, and he sailed towards Gibralter to prevent their escape into the Mediterranan.
