It smatters not what advance is made 'in. '/Adios', nothing can ever take the ,place of that • cid crystal set. Later on an attachment was made whereby two' sets of ear 'phones could" be used; and we look back to the time when one set was used by a dear Mother who has been long years in that land where we can keep in close Mach with cur Saviour in a direct line of corm enieation and to whom we do not need to go through any broadcasting station. We will remember the first sex - mon which came ever the air which, could be heard in this district through a 'crystal set. It was preached by Rev. W. A. Camreron of Y;orkminister Baptist .t CAturoh Toronto. �p �a to. One can .hardly use a radio with- out thinking of God, Three thousand years ago the Psalmist spoke of God as one who only death wondrous things. King 'David lived in the time before the telescope and the i nrcro- scope and ,suuh inventions have so to speak pushed back the visible uni- verse and yet in the nineteenth psalm he speaks of the heavens which de- clare the glory of God, .'Even at that time we are led to believe that such sounds whieh now conn to us through the air were present. Every new branchg of human learrmnr, since the time of David, including nlurini radioo �g should have brought us nearer to God, but the great question is `"Has it?" The old crystal sets have found a discarded place in the attic but the precious memory of them remains, We blame the motor cars for making the church congregations so small, but what part in that has the radio taken ? The Lord allowed the invent. ion of the radio but like many other things it has been put to a wrong use. At the time of church service or Sunday School this. valuable instru- ment is alright for those who are sick or disabled or those who are looking after 'them but it was never intended that able bodied Hien, women and children should stay at home and listen to a service which a minister comes on.:Each' one :oce us just ;has one thinking boy and if . we keeptit filled with programmes which are not elevating we ee2tainly have net room for any thoughts which will be a help to us. Doctors and those who are dealing with children' 'claim ?bh'at much of •the deliniquenry which is found among even veey young child- ren to -day is due to their little minds being tilled with movies and stories from ,the radio-. There'. is practically no time to -day for memory work a- mong 'our :children or even our adults. One cannot think intelligently and listen to a radio. There is much good, comes over the air. Let us listen to an elevating programme, .then turn thedmsteanitot off and give our minds a chance to rest from the trying •sound of a constantly going radio tc rdh hart times has s not • lung worth ,listening to. People say "One thing 1 like about a radio is that if there is a program- me on T do not litre I can dial to something else", How many of us turn a church service toff and tune in to some screeching ,secular program- me which use a disgrace to Sunday haoadcasting? Why do we not +want the good pane things in life? Others claim bhat when they do not attend a amok service they are spared putting anything on the col- leotdon plate. This is quite often said as a joke, but in for any reason we can not attend tend ohaars3h it wouldbe a goo idea for us to take up a collect- ion among those who are with us and either send it to the church which is broadcasting or give it to some char- itable work Elven if we have visitors, it is the Lord's, work and' it would not Abe wrong to .asks them to contribute. At times iehen dialling we just get a jumble of sounds. This constitutes what we 'call interference. In the same way we have interference in our Christian. life. The tempter conies in and we go wibh .him and our lives became more and more confused but on the 'other :hand, toe contemn the dial even just slightly :and all will be clear. We will hear our Saviour say "Come Matto me and rest" and what a beautiful .message that will her has spent hours in preparing. Let us In order to thoroughly enjoy a be thankful that God, has given us radio, especially the wonderful inns - health and strength to go to ]its House. Do not let ourselves get into the way of wanting to join the ranks of those who :ere unable to go to cltmch. The time may come all too soon when ,through some accident or frailty we will not be able to go and then we will heartily wish we had attended God's House when opport- unity offered. We receive a blessing when we go to Church, if we are able, which we (la not have when we takethe easier way of sitting at home and tuning in, to a church service. A ;minister who was giving God's message over 'the air on the regular morning devotions was speaking of the letters and messages which he had received. Amony than was of how a ratan had told him he heard his broadcast on his way to work. He said he began his days work with the devotions which he heard regularly as he motored along on his way down town. How many of us tune in to God's word and thus have a mess- age to carry us through the day? That too is a wondea'£ul lesson for the ministers who have the privilege of broadcasting God's word, Are they giving a message which will help those who are listening or are they using the few minutes, they have to speak of worldly matters. After all it is not material things in life whieh cost but it is our faith in Jesus Christ Along this line a beautiful stony is Mold. An elderly minister of a small church in a country tewm had one day in his audience a very distin- guished statesman. There was little change in the service, the minister preached lin his usual earnest manner. At -the close of the service several gathered around him and said "Broth- er, we had a distinguished visitor to- day, but you did not seem at all em- barrassed. Thereupon the old man replied I. have been preaching in the presence of the Almighty God for forty years, and do you think, with hint as one of my constant hearers, any man can embarrass me by his presence". The prograanmes which come over the radio are indeed varied, one might say there in something for every- body but we all know that at certain brines of the day one can go all a- round the dial and not find anything they would care .to spend the time listening to. More and more there is criticism in connection with leaving a radio running hour after hour and just listening to any programme •which ORDER YOUR COAL NOW!
