This included All branches of that tart, as it may well be ealled, As we looked at this`:tedidus ani at times intricate •work we could not help but apply it to our lives. In this connection, how would it be, if we, with 'thins in view, tiled to knit a pair of •socks. To .begin with we cast on a cer- tain number of stitches and: as we are knitting ,areording to correct in- structions we can compare this to our very early life, to the time when we came into this world. On the needles of our 'life there are cast stitches of joy, sorrow, sadness, hap- piness, adversity, prosperity, sickness, healthy loneliness, and many •others, 'w'hich we might add. Oar life is very anuoh as we make it end we might say that we have a great deal to do with the canstruetion of the lives of others. Following the casting an of these stitches there is +a period of our lives when we require more care and more training than in any other years of our life. Then is the time when parents should begin to train us for our future work, A noted man who recently passed to the -Great Be- yond,., the father of several children, said. children •should' be taught that when a father or mother said "No" ,than "Sic" was nreaat, and when they said "Yes" that every effort possible should be made to fulfil that promise. There are instances, but they should be very' rare, when that answer should be changed and then a fun explanation should be given to the child. These early stitches may then be likened to our days of babyhood, or very young childhood, when we are, wholly dependent on •t he care of some one else, our parents or guardians. In later years when we learn what an effort has been put forth by our another to keep our tiny spark of life alive, how grateful we are to those dear'souls, anany.of whom 'have passed to their reward, for their love towards us whteh prompted such sacrifices. That love can be' compared only to that of our Saviour, Who gave His life for as, in order that we aright have everlasting joy with Him. So in knitting, if 'we are not careful we veil leave loose. ends which will completely spoil our whole sock. Then we have the ribbing which can be compared to' our childhood and early 'school days.

M mother and daddy and have left for their first day at school. As we see them go we wonder just which of the "cast on" stitches will be their future lot in life, Someone dear to us "ribs two, purls two". We watch and try to follow. It is only by experience and example we learn the ways of life, Experience is of our own making, but example and re- ports of experience we receive from others. Our lives 'are made up stitch by atite'h and our wool and needles must be uniform. We would: indeed have a queer looking sock if we used an extremely fine needle and a very coarse wool, or what would people think of us if we used a large-sized needle and a small gauged one. The ages between birth and ten years of age are the most formative and the, future life of a man or wo- man depends largely on what is learned during those yearn If a l?oy is allowed to be disolbendient in those years it is almost certain that he will turn out to be a disgrace to his par- ents and family. The courts are now b ringing out the fret that a young man's' wrong -doing is to a great ex- tent the fault of his parents. In speaking of damage done to pro- erty by children a recent paper said hat parents should be made to pay r the breakage and not the children, d in that way fathers end'mothers w oulcl be more apt to know where l heir children were and what they ere doing.an Prethat ,period in Iife we go on to young manhood and wgmanheeed. e are now knitting plain and are utting into practice (what we learned n the ribbing stage. Ais we must atch to keep our knitting even, so o must walk in the narrow way, s it is necessary for ns to have ball or skein of wool to supply tire, ur Yi with which to knit, so we must now a ,Saviour from Whom to draw ur source of strength as we go 'ern dry to day. As we cannot work or an employer unless) we know mating about, the business with ch he is connected, likewise we not be acquainted with the Lord's ork before we can help bring others Hint. t fo an t NI, W p i w w A e fa f so who at to When we knit a certain number of inches plain, then we .begin tine heel, which is the hardest oath of the sock, This may be compared to the thiod of decision in our lives. It is en )we plan our future life work. We think about choosing a life partner, Very often we are in such a burry to get married that we choose the second before the first of our decisions. Oh, that our young ?people of today would consider marriage more seriously! I3 they would there would be a great deal less marital trouble- Let us take es our motto "What would Jesus do?" That is if we know Him and if we do 'not, make it our business to learn of Him, believe on Him and then accept Him. The standard which •Christ has set for us and onr aim in life are not in many cases at all the same. We are apt to think when we.'have done something wrong ,that we have performed a smart act, When we drop a stitch we do not think that, 'so why should we in the other instance? There is nothing smart in sinning. Why will we not try to keep up to ,the standard of Christ? St, Paul tells us of many things which we can't knit into our lives, aka among 'these are found in his words, "The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, ,peace, long suffering, gen- tleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. He telt ua there is no law against these. How •inneh more happy we would be if we used these things which can be woven into our lives just as we knit. ALS we knit we make mistakes. We drop stitch, pick some up .and then we have to unravel to where the mis- take has been made. When we make a. mistake in life we go back to where we -went wrong. Je,s'us will .argon us and will againreceive us Otto His fellowship, We knit the to takings the off the toe, or the end of our 'work. So it is, we at last near the end of our journey of life. Let as be careful that we tall net make msttakes when we come to the close of our earthly day. Keep on following God's commands ancl we will be ready when He calls us to "Some and rest". What a g ori us call that will be for many who are waiting for it! We all like our souk to have a nice looking appearance. In .oar lives are we more particular about haw we look .than we are of how Christ shows in our life. There axe many knitters who are just Iearning; so it is with us. We all make mistakes, but Christ (las, died that we might have forgive ness, ane) we can have a fresh start and go on with Christ as am stan- dard. When we coarse to •the part where WO take cif the .toe we use jest two needles, and as we come to the declining years of crus life no- thing matters but Jesus and ourselves. As .the final stitch has been cit and the yarn is broken off it is symbolic of our passing froth the earth to the next world. Where our future will be spent .depends on our ac- eeptance or rejeotion of Jesess Ohtist Who died for msme an war years some socks were ea- cepted and some rejected. They were not fit fey •use. Let us pray that we may so knit our socia of life that we, will be worthy of a ,place with cur ?Sava:nor. 1 ■ PAGE "HItrIIp Late Summer Weddings 1VELSON IACKSON (By our Hensall correspondent) A lovely wedding was solemnized t the United Church manse; ,Iieneell, Thursday, September 11, ' at high noon, when Rev. a.
