The Ten' Commandments
By "PEG",
To speak in detail on "The Ten
Commandments" in the space slotted
would be impossible, as at least forty
years are involved in this tremendous
subject.,
We have the story of the p?rseen=
tion of the children of Israel in
Egypt. Previous to the time of
Ashmes„the` first Pharaoh' of the new
dynasty, the 'layksos or Shepherd
Kings had been kind to the Israelites,
but as the Israelites were increasing
so fast fear gripped the heart of the
new King and he ordered that all the
male children should be destroyed.
To a man of the house of Levi and
his wife, a son was born. He was a
goodly child and his mother hid him
for three months. When she could
no/longerconceal his presence she
made an ark of-bullrushes. She prop-
erly prepared it and laid him therein.
His little resting place was then de-
posited in the flags by the rivers'de.
His sister stood afar off and watched
what would happen to him.
Soon, the daughter of Pharaoh;
came down to the river to wash, and
as she and her .maidens walked along
they saw the ark. One of the maidens
was sent to bring it to her mistress.'
When the ark was opened the baby
cried and Pharaoh's daughter, recog-
nizing it as one of the Hebrew child-
ren, took pity on it. Eventually the.
mother of the child was hired to
care for him. When he grew up he
was adopted by the King's daughter
who gave him the name• of Moses.
This is the same Moses who was
chosen by God to lead the ehildren
of Israel out of Egypt.
We cannot enlarge any further on
this, but it would be well and most.
instructive and interesting if we
would read the account of this in the
Book of Exodus, This will bring to
our minds the story of the plagues,
the last of which was the smiting of
all the first 'born in the land of
Egypt, from the first • born of
Pharaoh, down to that of the humb-
lest subject.
Pharaoh apparently humbled, call.
ed for ]doses ,and ordered him to
gather together the Israelites and to
leave the land of Egypt immediately.
In this way began the march of
the Israelites into the Land of
Canaan, by the xnarveliotis dividing
of the waters of the Red Sea. Phar-
aoh, regretting his decision to let his
enemies leave his country, followed
them with a huge army but the water
closed in on them, they were destroy-
ed, but God led His people safely
. through.
Some time following this wehave
the conversation between God and
Moses, on. Mount Sinai and God sent
Moses down to speak to the people
who stood around the base of the
Mountain. The message, which Moses
gave to the Israelites, was the word
of the Lord, as we find it in The
Ten Commandments:
1. I am the Lord thy God.
Do •wee even those of us who pro-
fess to be followers of Christ, give
God His proper place in our lives?
We 'realize that in this world of
chaos to -day many give Ohrist no
place at all. They not only do ndt
recognize Him themselves, but they
actually at times scoff at others who,
try to show to the world that they
are co-workers with Him. Needwe
eare if, others laugh at us? Why
shonld'we? God sees it all and He
knows the effort we are making” to
try to follow Hien and to show that
we do not want the ,things of the;
world.
2. Thou shalt have no other
Gods before me.
3. Thou shalt not snake unto
thee any great image, etc.
There are many people in heathen
lands who worship idols' or who wor-
ship -some
or-ship•-sofne one who is not the true
God. Such has been the state in
Japan, where for hundreds of years
the Emperor has been worshipped as
their God. Now they find that their
leader is not a true God or he would
not have allowed their country` to
fall into the hands of foreign powers
and to cause them to "lose' face."
Shintorism may, before many years,
be .a thing of the past. Many of. the
Japanese will in all .probability carry
it on privktely for years to come,
but are we :.prepared to give them
the true religion? This is our op-
portunity, a God-given privilege,, to
teach , them the Christ who died for•
us and also for them, Terrible as
we think our enemies are, we must
acknowledge that they come under
the command • of Jesus Christ.
"Go ye therefore, and teach
ali nations, baptizin1 them in tee
name - of the Father, and of the
Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
teaching them to observe all
things whatsoever I have com-
manded you: and lo I am with
you alway, even unto the end of
the World,"—Matt. 28:19,20.
*We judge heathen nations' on ac-
count of their atl:itude towards Christ
but we have no right to do so. If
we would give as God has instructed
us, His. word would be much more
widely known, not only in their far-
off lands, but also in our fair Domin-
ion. We claim that they should' not
worship idols and yet many'o£ us are
doing the same thing her today. We
are giving pleasure, drink,the love
of dress and cosmetics and nrany
other things, the place which should
be given to Ohriet. De we ever
stop to think that our Saviour will
take no second place in our lives?
He must have first place or none.
Even in our churches do we give
Christ an inferior position? If He
were to come into the church which
has been- dedicated to Him and which
we attend would we want Him to
see some . of the things which are
being done, presumably in His Name?
Beware of what we do and say not

ATTENDING CHURCH SERVICE
MR, AND MRS. JOHN DIEHL
a -half miles south of Clinton. Her
maiden name was Mary Ann Stevens,
daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs.
John Stevens, ,Stanley Township. Mr.
Diehl was born in Stanley Township,
six -and -a -half miles from Clinton,
December 3, 1858, son of the late
Valentine Diehl.
The couple . were married at the
home of the bride's parents on Oct.
21, 1885, the late Rev. W. W. Spar -
ling officiating. After their marriage
they farmed on concession 4, Stanley'
Township, and in 1921 retired to live
in Clinton, Mr. Diehl was Coekshutt)
Plow agent in Clinton for some time,
and lately was engaged in carpentry

Mr. and Mrs: Diehl have been
active and faithful members of
Wesley -Willis United Church, and.
still attend one or two services every
Sunday. Mrs. Diehl is a life -member
of the Women's Missionary Society.
The couple had two children. One
son, William John, died in infancy,
while the other, Percy Arnold, was
killed in action in France in August
t918. Mrs. Diehl is the last of her
family, but Mr. Diehl has two sisters:
Mrs. John Carter, Strathelair, Man.,

Enjoying splendid health, Mr. and

oldest and most highly respected.
residents, celebrated their diamond
wedding anniversary by attending
their church, Wesley -Willis United,
Church, Sunday morning, and later
being at home to their friends at
their residence on Queen St. .
The Woman's Association of the.
Church presented them with a basket
of fruit in honour of the occasion,
and also extended congratulations..
Ten years ago, on the occasion of
their golden wedding anniversary,
friends and relatives celebrated with
them, and the bride wore her, wed-
ding' dress, which she proudly dis-
played to The NEWS -RECORD
editor when he called at their home
on Sunday to felicitate the couple.
Still in a fine state of preservation,
the dress is of dark gray taffeta,
street-lengh with 'lace bodice, Iong
sleeves, and belt, It was quite "the
rage" 80 years ago.
Mr. Diehl will be 87 in December;
Mrs. Diehl was 82 on Monday.

only in our own lives but also in His
House. Vire may think we are getting
away with it here, but some time
we will have to answer for it. God
does not want His House to be sup-
ported by dances, . card parties,
bazaars, bingoes or any of the other
things we are doing contrary to His
Will. He definitely has stated that
His work, must be carried on by tith-

are we going to persist in going con-

How easy it is to, so eo speak,
use slang. Do we realize that at
times even in our ordinary conversa-
tion we say things which are not
respectful to God : and would come
under His condemnation, "for the
Lord will ,not hold 'Him • guiltless
that teketle his Il ne 'in vain." An-
other thing, do we allow others to
talk to us using language which we
wouldnot want the Lord to hear us
listening to? We are, as Christians,
duty bound to check that kind of
talk: Should we listen, we are just
as guilty as the one who is taking
the Lord's Name in vain.
