Iai Genesis fourth chapter we have the story of ;Cain and Abel. Abel was "a keeper of sheep" and Cain "a ?tiller of the ground;" Both seen brought their offering to the Lard. The Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering, but untoCain and his offering lie had not resrpeeb. Cain was verse angry and later, in the field, he slew Abel. Then the Lord said unto Cailn: "Where is ?Abel, thy brother" And he said; "I know start: ane 1 any brot'her's keeper?" As we read on in the chapter we realize that God proved to 'Gain 'that he Was his brother's keeper.' Ars it wase in those days of so long ago, so it is. ,today, God holds us air our brother's keeper, We are responsible for anuytkieg. We dog which will he an influence for good or for, evil in the life of any one else. As we look ?back over the doings of ;our day we can readily see how our actions ;have either hindered or helped some one. We so gften question this respen- sibility and yet we are constantly doing things which awe proving that we leave'nv interest in roth.eres. When there is eilckn'ese in, a home we hurry to ;see if we can be of any help; when +bereavement comes ° our sympathy is offered` now •at .the trims of so meeee graduations we are 1 Clinton Knitting Company Ltd.

We must acknowledge there are times when t,, the disappointment of our friends we forget all these things. How little we &realize how much we owe to ,those who have trade peat of our lives! As we walk along oua• streets we so often ;see instances of hoar: even ittele children realize that they have a duty to ethers." The other day over the radio there came the quot- ing from the old second reader of how an old, body stood trembling at the edge of the sridiewai(, waiting for an epporrnumty to erose to the other side, A group of school boys came running by but noire ?stopped to hell) her. Finally one manly lad Baine along and .'baking her by the arni helped her safely to the opposite side therm hastened on to catdli up to the other bolls. The gratitudei of the elderly lady was almost pa- thetae. We believe throb our boys are just. as manicer today as they were in tale Plast but there are tiniee when we wonder if they could mot be more ohougihteel gartioularly of these who are gold and grey. The younger ?people ;seem to be ;able to look after themselves rout there are many cid. erly people who need ;our help nand for whom we are in a sense respoe Bible.. The other day a man who. now well on im his mrimrety-seven year, was asked df he ever had t stand lir the street carr. "Oh, yes, the .said, "I often do."

It' deeidedliy shows haw a child has been tonight in the home. There axe -many children who look back -with pleasyyaae to the little aets of politeness wlv!eh have been taught them even in a very humble hone If we were to visit some of our Sunday Schools we would find boys and girls to whom discipline means nothing. lit is at time little wonder that teachers are Tooth to iinde2•take to ,teach a elass. Axe parents trot responsible for their children while they aa'e -away from home? Would it not be a good idea for parents to enquire from the teacher of their boy oe girl just •how they behave when away from home foe we ail know that a child's actions 'while away front rheic parents reflects on their home training. In regard to our *Christian relig- ion *before Christ died He commis- signed His disciples to preach the gospel to. all people. Fortunately far us the good news came east in- stead of west for had the western People sent the gospel the way we have sent it to them, in all probabil- ity we would still be without the good news of the sacrificial death of Christ for us. The disciples felt their responsibility and followed the instruction ,of our ,Saviour. That !responsibility meant ' a martyrs deabh to those men who determined to do what Christ .asked them to do. They knew ;they were likely to face that but stile they shouldered ;ibis responsibility. There is nothing that will help a man, woman, boy or girl on in Life like responsibility. Give a child something ee do, let him know yon will help bins to get started but that you expect him to carry on with it, bake an interest in what he is doing and that child will accept that responsibility. He will go on from one thing to another in like fashion and he will grow to be a dependable man, but in the same way ask a child to look ;alter some daily job and pay no further heed• to what he is doing and nine times out of ten his interest 'will be diverted into some •chanmel -of amusement and the task assigned to him will be for- gotten. Why? 'Became the mother or father who asked him to do the work in the first place ;tact no sense of tresppneibility and why expect a young lad or lass to follow instruc- tions of an irresponsible person. There is no one more interested in wanting to help "mommy" or "daddy" than a little ,boy or girl. 'Why rat give them the responsibil- ity of doing different things hint be a helper to them? A young man was facing the elec- tric chair. One day the was handed a photograrph of his mother: by the dal .guard, with the words "Your another sent this photograph of her. self to you" The young man looked at it sadly rand said: "Send that • back to any moths and tell her that I nevem want to see either her or her photo again If it was net for her I would not be here. She taeght me to play ,cards in our own hoane. From that one thing led to another, until I ;am where yoke see me today. My mother is responsible largely for it. ;She and my father' used to at - bend card parties and dances, and taught their family to do the same. We had adew sister who went down to her ruin through the dance. An- other sister became converted and tried to bring the religion of her Saviour into OUT home but my par- ents just liaughed at her and even forbade her to go to religious meet - Wins Judging Contest MURRAY ROY Londeeboeo, who won first place in the senior section of the Livestock Judging Competition coivd,ueted by OMama Deparotment of A.ga;ilulbure fs at the Euawn Oouney Federation th Field Day *at Exeter last week. He a eoored 473, points out of a possible ,,500, and took the intermediate ,title a year ago. Murray also won the et tamesha!f'enile race. logos. However, ;she has been a standby to one through thio awful total. She is oosustantly prayieg for me and I am beginning to see the light. How I wish I could persuade fathers and mabhers never, to con -1 sent to have the card table anti dance in their homes. They claim that if ohildfren .do not eeaan these things in ?their own homes they will go elsewhere. That may be so but wherever they are learned they are wrong and will lead to destruotiot. What a .shame it is that parents break the commandments of the Lord in this way. It may be, I will feel differently •towards my mother but ;at late Present time T cannot." ,Such a pathetic talk from a young mast who might have done a great deal better an life! Does it carry any message to parents? There are :many worldly things in which ,par- erts indulge and they are followed ke them by their children. God bas given the ehildeen into homes and Parents trust take the responsibility for them. God will require an ac- counthig for them. by the parents at the bar of justice when ell things an earth have rolled away. Oertaiely we are our brother's keeper. It was. because Jesus felt He was our keeper that He left His heavenly home and came down to earth to die for us that we might enjoy eternal blessedness with Him. We ;have the oppoaitunity and priv- ilege of co-operating with Him and also aotinug as our brother's keeper. le911 we not believe in Him today. Accept Him as our Saviour and then try to behe -others to Him. "Others may do a greater work, But you have your pant to do; A.nd no, one in all God's heritage Can do it as well as you."
