These few thoughts are a coitinu-
-anon on our subject of "Conscience".
The first Instance we have in the
Bible of conscience is where Adam and
Eve were condemned for eating the
forbidden fruit. The serpent tempted
Eve and she argued with it stating
that "We may eat of the fruit of the
trees of the garden; but of the fruit
of the tree which is in the midst of
the garden, God hath said, Ye shall
not eat of it, neither shall: ye touch
it, Iest ye die." Then the, serpent.
followed up with, "Ye shall not sure-
ly die. For God cloth know that
in the day ye eat thereof, then your
eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be
as Gods, knowing good and evil."
Then came the fall of Adam and Eve.
Conscience, as directed by God, had
been overcome and the devil had been
victorious. Then Eve went to Adam
and her tempting was the means of
his fall.
Had Eve only obeyed her conscien-
ce and had frustrated the wiles of the
devil, as. represented by the serpent
.there would have been no separation
between God and man, whom He had
Made in His own image.
Then there followed one of the
thief characteristics of disobeying
conscience. As Adam and Eve wan-
ted to hide from God, so when we
try + to put conscience to one side and
sin, we endeavour to hide so we will
;not have to bear the consequences of
.our wrong doing.
Take for instance a group of boys.
'They are walking along the road and
'passed an orchard. One says, "Come on
fellows lets jump the fence and get.
'some apples" Another replied. "They
:•are not ours and we have no right
'to touch them" and he stood on the
'road, . As the others ran one called
back, "Come on, sissy, you will be
rready to share them when we come
back." Although flushed by the taunt
•the boy stoodfirm, time others filled
their pockets and rejoined their com-
rade on the road. They were not far
-from the farm gate and when they
:got nearly up to it they saw the far-
mer standing by the post. Fear of the
"result of what they had done made
'them run. The farmer whoknew two
sor three of them called kindly to then
and they cane back. He was a Christ-
ian man and told them that their
stealing came from not obeying their
conscience. He explained to them
that there was no need for them to
have gone into his orchard and to
have taken what did not belong to
them. If they had come and asked
for the fruit they would gladly have
been given all they wanted. Then he
asked .them how many of them had -
done that same thing before. All but
one who had remained on the road-
way confessed to have stolen before
and each one acknowlddged that the
first time they did it something
wined to tell them not to do it, but
now it just seemed like second nature
to them. None of them had gone far-
ther than petty thieving.
In later years in telling about it
one of them said. "It was a lesson to
us whieh we never forgot "Not one
of those boys' turned out to be a
thief. TJncler different circumstances
they might have done so, had not the
farmer talked to then the way he
did and the story told in later years
might have had an altogether dif=
ferent ending. Those boys knew they
had done wrong and Were afraid of
the man who had it in his power to
have them punished,
We clo many things which conscien-
ce forbids us to, do and how anxious
we are to conceal our sin and disgracer
froth others! Ave we able to do it?
;Maybe so, but we cannot hide it from
[God. We try to find on excuse for
our wrong doing but there is never
'an excuse for sin—there is forgive-
ness but no excuse.
So often we could help sorra one
[who refuses to obey conscience,. but
,we will not do it se, Have we seen
[children doing things which their
parents do not know they are up to?
Is it always necessary to be a tale
bearer? Unless things are serious
and should be reported*a friend of
children can often deal with these
matters themselves. We tan look
back over our lives and recall very
pleasant instances in which we have
had the opportunity of dealing with
children and in pointing out to then
the danger of following the course
which they are pursuing, How lov-
ely it is to behold their bright happy
faces as they see the way out of their
difficulties!
Onr Heavenly Father, who !wows
all future has given us a conscience
which will tell us right from wrong,
but we, many tines, will not listen to.
this still small voice from God, We
think we know better ourselves and
on we go to our downfall.
Do we realize that when our con-
science has been bestowed on us by
God it knows no other way but to
lead us in the straight and naluow
way 7 Still we refuse to heed its call
to what is right and as time goes on
a cloud gathers between it and us
that we do not get the real meaning
of what it wantsus to clo, in fact we
might as well be without one at all.
We realize that this is a deplor-
able condition but we have gone so
far astray front its leading that we
feel that it will never cone bath to
us.
Can it? Yes certainly it can. All
we need to do is to accept Jesus
Christ as our personal Saviour, be-
lieve that He died for us on the Gross,
and rose again that we might have
Eternal life, and as one would rub
out a- quotation on a blackboard with
a brush, so God will wipe away all
the dirt and accumulation of years
and we will be left with a clean pas-.
sage between God, our conscience and
ourselves.
What a joyful day that will be for
us! No other day in our lives is
comparable to it. Will we not just
grasp that great opportunity to -day?
"If I have wounded any soul- to -da'
If I have caused one foot to go astray
If I have walked in my own wilful
way
Dear Lord forgive.
If I have uttered idle words or vain
If I have turned aside from want or
pain
Lest I myself should suffer through
the strain
Dear Lord forgive.
If I have been perverse or hard
or cold
If I have longed for shelter in Thy
fold
When Thou hast given mesometort
to bold
Dear Lord forgive.
Forgive the sins I have confessed to
Thee
Forgive the secret sin I do not see
Oh guide nee, love me, and my keeper
be

Nation-wide, independent poll' shows preference for
Goodyear fires greater than that of all
other makes combined.
Hundreds of motorists, in every province of Canada were asked
this question: "If you had a fire permit, what tire would you
buytoday?" Eye: huge majority Goodyear was again elected
Canada's first choice tire!
This simply proves that motorists, forced to keep their old
tires running, have iearned that Goodyear's "extra mileage"
is not merely a claim or a catch -phrase, but a definite reality.
Never before, since motoring began, have tires come
through such a testing -time as during the past eighteen months.
Never before have motorists been compelled to extract the very
last mile from tires. Therefore when Canada's first choice tire,
Goodyear, comes through that period and remains, by all odds,
the first choice tire, there is abundant proof that motorists have
found, by practical experience, that Goodyears do give a
"bonus in miles and service".
When peace time comes—"Go Goodyear"—
and get EXTRA MILES.
