We can recall' our Mother, many whom are now in Eternity, taking s•on !her knee and verse by verse aching us the beautiful words of t /precious psalm. God help the 'Wen whose Mothers had. neither e time nor the patience to teach em the wonderful words found in iected' passages of 'God's word ltieh are suitable for young child - n. Many interpretations have- been ven to ..this psalm by different titers, but one of the •most mbeauti- is that which takes the psalm and mpares each part of it to the life the shepherd in Palestine, who th disregard to even his own life, ks after the sheep 'during the urs of the day and then as night e in he takes them into the fold, amining each one to see that there e no scratches of tear and if such found they are tenderly cared Should one be missing the epherd goes out and hunts until he ds it. A beautiful story is told of a epherd who discovered that oneof flock was missing and searched it until he found it. The sheep fallen from the top of the cliff d was lying on a projecting rock e feet below. The shepherd knew t toeven speak to it would cause to move and it would then be inged many feet below to its th. Each day he went back but 11• it would move. Then one day en he went the vultures were fly - ever head waiting for their prey^ there was no movement. In his way he descended to where•the ep was lying. He gathered it in arms, and anade his way back to top of the cliff and immediately -n to.

It just tes "The Lord is my Shepherd" all the graciouskindness we eive from Him. We are given ny blessings' whether we accept •'st or not, but oh, how much we can enjoy them if we have en the gift of Salvation which 'st has so freely offered' to us. 'The Lord", that is the Lord Jesus OA, left the Home of God, of His own free will came Earth, in order that Ile might e us: that gift of Salvation. We ow that He lived a life similar to at the people in Palestine lived. was subject to like temptations ideas we are. Yet He was the only est person in the world. He had th in His Heavenly Father and knew He would keep Hint from . Yes, it is true He was tempted t He did not fall' like we do. We tithes, feel that we would like know what His childhood was e Many books have ,been. written 'et it, but they are all in imagine - n so we too can let our thoughts oder and picture Him as he ye& with other children and as 'got old enough He helped Joseph the carpenter, shop.

The Oority of truly' Christian • people i hiirnble and among „the great ;ny are'very humble: The greatest Shortly before .Miss Jean I. ' Gunn O.B.E., L.L.D. late superintendent ,of the Toronto .;General hospital passed to ,the Great Beyond a nurse in one of the hospitals paid to a nurse who was a patient there one to whom Miss Gunn had' been exceedingly kind. "I would like to see Miss, Gunn. I have heard- a great deal about her. "One day Miss' Gunn and her Assistant Superintendent of Nurses came to see the patient and as Miss Gunn walked down the hall she stopped the nurse to speak to her. Later the patient nurse said to the other one: "Well, you have had your wish you have seen Miss 'Gunn", she replied. "Yes' I "have seen her but I did not` know it was she. I had no idea Miss Gunn was a humble woman like that." What a wonderful thing to say of a nurse who had bestowed on :her more honors than any nurse had over had! We know the story of 'the ministry of Christ during the last three years of His life 'and of the last night in Getheemene when) He went apart from Peter, James and John in order that He might spend some time alone with His Heavenly Father. We cannot imagine with what agony Jesus• prayed when He, said. "Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me, nevertheless not my will but thine, be done." Then we have His tragic death. All that suffering and his death on the cross. was for you, it was for iner thatnwe might spend Eternity with Him. Have we accepted the gift which He brpugltt at such a price? Many of us have just turned our backs on Him and have refused to take it. Let us re- member that the time will come when it will he offered for the Iast time. Christ stands at the door of our hearts and knocks, knocks but the time will come when we will no longer hear the knocking. We will have passed into Eternity taking our sins with us•, hut we will hear Christ saying to us. "Depart from me". Our cries and our tears - will have no effect then. We will just be forced to leave His Presence for, ever. Why will we not heed' His call while yet there is time? Christ can do no more than offer us -the salva- tion for which he paid such'a price. Heed His call now. Do not wait any longer for time is passing quickly and many are being called se sudden- ly. We alone will be to blame if our will comes and we are not prepared. We have had plenty of warning. Wait no longer. We will spend Eternity either with or, without our Lord and the responsibility is ours alone. "The Lord is" The verge does not say the Lord has been my Shepherd but it says "is". He has been and will :be to the end of time our shep- herd if we will accept Him. "The Lord is my". What a glorious feeling it is to realize that we can say 4111Y" and know that that word applies to each one of us. John 3:16 gives us one of the mast wonderful verses in the whole of God's word" 'For God so loved the World; that He gave His. only' begotten .Son, that whosoever believeth • in hint .should not perish, but have everlasting life:" That is not for a' few years„or cen- turies; but Eternally. Can we ima • gine what it would. be like to have to spend Everlasting- ages with Christs •adversary? We may rest. assured that if we do not .adept Christ that is just what we will have to do: One' can plead' earnestly for those opposed to Christ to take Him as their guide; but their only salvation is to •believe in Him other- wise they must perish.

Tire engineers say , it is equal to 50,000 miles of ordin- ary driving. "This proves conclusively", Mr. Punaton points out, "that synthetic tires are safe at high', speeds. The test was authorized by the U. S. Government to find out what might be the result of synthetic tire per- formance when the• war -time speed limits are Iifted. The results spe'a'k for themselves.
