Matt. 17:1, Apparently tyloses end Elias are not in an unconscious soul sleep, for Peter, James and John saw them in the nio mt speaking with Jesus concerning I•lis decease which He should accomplish. It WAS a thrilling experience, .The earthily life of Jesus 'seas one of humiliation, but here and there glimpses of his glory may be seen, His birth, his baptism, his temptation, and his death were the the most remarkable instances of his Abasolnenl, but each of them was attended by a burst of heaven's glory. The public niin • istry of Jesus was • a continued humiliation, but now in the midst of it was the transfiguration. On the top of a high mountain apart this declaration of the divinity of Jesus was made, Those who would maintain contact with heaveiv today 'mtisf frequently withdraw from the pressing bus- iness of this world. Privacy much befriends our commtution with God. We must not only retire, but ascend, - ]ift .up our hearts, seek things above, and thus we shall experience a transforming •fel- lowship. We are never less alone than when we are alone with God. No wonder Peter exclaimed, "Lord, it is good for us to be here." It is good to be where Christ is, whither he brings us by his divine appointment, to reveal his beauty and permit us to peer more . deeply into the divine mysteries. Nor do we wonder at Peter's desire to' stay there. Ti is good to be more than a wayfaring man in.. God's presence: It will be the crown of all delights to have a constant abode with God. That wish will not be denied 'diode who are steadfast, But Peter was for laying hold of this richest prize before he had finish- ' ed his c ours e. It is not for strangers 'ands pilgrints to expect a centinuing city"•upon this earth. We look for•One.:to come.

My friend, J, F, Gregory, writ- ing in Arnold's Commentary re- fers to what is described by some as the greatest of all art, Rap- hael's Transfiguration. In it are two pictures in one The . upper half forms the background and the transfiguration scene: the radiance of the clouds, the Master and his disciples, withthe re- presentatives of the law and the prpphets, Below is the group in the valley, disciples of weals faith* and confusion, the suffering lad and his anguished parents, The contrast reminds us that we must descend from the mount of 'wor- ship to the valley of service. We •cannot., walk with uplifted eyes and folded hands through this sin -blighted world. Our songs should never deafen us to the calls of human need. Prayer- ful meditation or thrills of holy ecstasy" must have their com- plement action. TIIEFA1ThI FRONT' X1`3` At the recent joint meeting of the North Central and Western Canadian Weed Control Confer- ences in Winnipeg, recommenda- tioTa were made regarding the newest :>methods of chemically controlling weeds in field crops. Conference experts advised that because of varying climatic conditions in specific areas, the following recommendations be supplemented with advice from local agricultural representatives or weed authorities in the area. Rates of application for 2, 4-D, 2, 4, 5-T, MCP and TCA refer to acid equivlaent, * * 4 SPRING SOWN GRAIN—Ap- plications for weed control in wheat and barley should be made only in that growth period between the fifth leaf stage and just prior to the early boot stage.

In addition, weed control at this stage is often not satis- factory. II e * FLAX — Should be sprayed with MCP or 2, 4-D as soon as there is sufficientm g e er en ce of susceptible weeds to make spray- ing practical. Flax is more -toler- ant of MCP than of 2, 4-1). Spraying may reduce yields of seed and straw unless weed competition is reduced sufficient- ly to offset injury from spray- ing. Use two to three ounces . per acre of MCP or 2, 4-1) in amine formulations for susceptible weeds like wild mustard, Use four ounces for lamb's quarters, pigweed, stinkweed, cocklebur, marsh elder and ragweed. For moderately resistant weeds, spot spraying at heavier rates may be necessary. TCA at five pounds of • acid equivalent per acre will kill green foxtail, yellow foxtail and barnyard grass in. young flax. The flax should be at least two inches tall and the weeds less than two inches tall for best results. TCA eat be applied in mix- ture with 2, 4-D or MCP to kill susceptible grass weeds and sus- ceptible non -grace weeds with one application. * , 0 0 FORAGE LEGUMES — Seed - flags stands of ladino clover, alsike clover, reef clover, alfalfa and lespedeza growing in flax or small grain may be sprayed with the sodium or amine salts of 2, 4-D or MCP at rates up to and including one-quarter per pound acid equivalent per acre for the control of many broad -leaf an- nual, weeds. , . ° Alfalfa is generally less toler- ant of 2, 4-D and MCP than ladino,alsike and red clovers and some loss of stand can be expected, Applications made when the small grain is eight to 10 inches high 'Usually result in 1 less injury to legumes than ap- plications made earlier. Sweet clover will not tolerate either 2, 4-D or MCP. The dinitro sprays also may be used on these legumes in- cluding sweet clover for the con- trol of small broad-leaved an- nual weeds, but more water is required and results are more • dependent on the weather. The ammonium salt of DNPB at rates of three-quarters to 'one pound ,in 60 to 80 gallons of water per acre suggested. With high temperatures or wet plants, use lower amounts of DNPB. TCA sodium salt at five to seven pounds acid equivalent per acre may be used to control fox tails, barnyards grass and witch grass in seeding stands of alfalfa and sweet clover, but cannot be used when wheat, oats or barley is used as the compan- ion crop. Established stands of alsike, ladino, and red clovers may be sprayed with the 2, 4-D, MCP and dinitro products listed above at the rates mentioned when the top growth of the legume is nearly dormant or immediately following harvest. MCP and 2, 4-D will usually reduce the vigor of tite legume, at least temporarily. Established stands of alfalfa and sweet clover may be sprayed at the same dates with flve to seven Pounds acid equivalent of TCA for control of foxtaiis, barn- yard grass and witch grass. Red clover and alsike clover are too susceptible to TCA to bn sprayed. PASTURE AND RANGE GRASSES -- In very weedy pas- tures tt x+' good perennial grasses are thin, reseeding is probably the most ilnportant im- provement practice. Plowing and seeding to adapted grass where practicable, will almost elimi- nate many of the perennial pas- ture species, This practice supplemented by 23 4-1? treatment has given much better controi of all weedy spe- cies than either 2, 4-D or mew- ing- treatments hi one reported experiment. Mowing has been the recom- mended practice far nontrolling many kinds of weeds if done at the right time for two, three or four years. • Spraying with 2, 4-D or 2, 4, 5-T gives better control of more kinds of weeds than is obtained • by a single mowing. Spraying during active growing 'conditions of the weeds gives besf results. Repeated treatment fqr two or more years is usually necessary. Increased produption of desir- able forage and improved gaga stands have been reported. In general, these materials may be used at rates necessary for weed or brush control without appy* ciable injury to the grasses. Seedlings of perennial grasses may be advantageously treated with ' 2, 4-D if broad-leaved weeds are a•problem and if the land is not heavily infested with -weeds of the weedy annual grasses. - Rates up to three-quarter,. pound ester per acre may b used after the grass seedlings have reached the two to four- leaf growth stage. Birds Best Parents Prof. S. Charles Kendeigh of the University of Illinois main- tains that "parental care has reached its highest and most elaborate development -yin birds, since birds must care for their young during the embryo stage as well.” Lower types pay no attention to their young. The oyster produces millions of eggs but only one need reach maturi- ty to take the place of the adult. On the other hand, high degree of parental care allows the house wren to average only about ten eggs in .its lifetime, yet maintain a highly success- ful aggressive species. Birds fly instinctively, but they must gain experience and develop strength to fly, learn from their parents what enemies to fear, what food to eat, whither to migrate and what songs to sin Kendeigh g discusses all phases of the sub- ject in a new book "Parental Care and Its Evolution in Birds." British Women Go for Woolies British women have caught the North American craze for knit- ted fashions, A seottish firm famed for cashmere sweaters has manufactured ten dressmaker styles for early spring, in shades of crabapple green, petal green, petal pink, pistache and topaz.

Either you've, been. buying the, size or you've chosen a style that is unsuitable. Yourdiscarded shoes can tell you how you went wrong. They were too loose if the heel lining is rubbed away; too short if your ,big. toe has worn a hole in the uppers. ` Stand shoes on 'a 'flat surface and look at the soles. They should turn up slightly. If they turn hp a great deal, however, then the pair was too long.

To ensure that shoes remain comfortable, avoid a fitting early in the day. Your feet are rested and at their smallest then. After they've been on the go for a few hours, they'll swell, and shoes chosen when the feet were cool will become painfully tight. When you try on shoes, don't be tempted to remain sitting. .As you stand, your feet spread, and this is particularly true if you're a heavyweight. Seated, you may feel that a particular size is large enough, but when you stroll round you'll realize your mistake. It's then, too, that you will notice whether the heel slips out of the shoe. To should never reach to the end of a shoe, but should have room to wriggle slightly, and you ,shouldn't feel pressure on top. The shoes needn't be like boats, of course; if they fit snugly over the instep they n -ill give you plenty of support, Don't put up with shoes whose tides stick Auto your ankles, but choose a pair with a tower cut Never hope that ililtially un» comfortable shoes can be broken in, Certainly a too tight pair On be temporarily stretched, but AS 500n as you go' out into a damp atmosphere the leather will shrink. Women suffer more from foot troubles because they care more for appearance than for comforts and suitability, Experts say, however, that high heels do no harm unless h woman who normally adds three inches to her stature suddenly takes to flat wedge shoes, The shortened .muscles at the b ck of her leg naturally ache wen support is removed, It 'Is Important to remember that the big toe should remabz straight and not be forced into a central position by a badly' placed peep -toe or too narrow a last. Sandals and light sheet with cut -away fronts and sling backs are supremely comfortable; the only snag is that the foot in- side tends to spread. Then, when winter comes the wearer may find she needs a larger size in a heavy shoe. An expensive, well fitting show is never an extravagance.: Shoes that pinch cause not Only foot trouble, but headache; spinal disorders, and a great deaf of bad temper. Foretold own Death Dates Correctly When Charles Rex Cornish, of Princetenvla, Devon, was taken 01 recently, he said, "I shall die on Wednesday. Bury me on Satur- day afternoon in Princetowu churchyard, and let them all sing heartily because I shall be there, listening to them." His prophecy came true in every detail, though the last part can only be as- sumed. Why is that some can pro- phesy their' ,end, while others ' cannot see it iia., most cases, a 'gond.thingy tq0? ' Robert $fllton,'fanous author of "Anatomy of Melancholy," "predieteif'iif"1620 that he would die on January 25th, 1639, and it turned out`tb . be true. Count Eamon, known as. Cheiro, the Seer, wrote 'what he would die in California .on a certain date, and gave precisely the hour and minute. His prophecy came true, An Indian named Bhimalendu Ghosgl foretelcj,the death, exact- ly, of many of his relatives, and in 1936 stated that he would dia on June 17th, 1945. It all hap- pened.
