By "PEG" - .►w�.rwr�w.ii+.r+v,;,, •.y.www,..wr..�., Let us imagine 'ourselves being in a class over which God is presiding. We recall that in the upper Room at the time the •Lord's ' Supper was instituted that Jesus Christ told the disciples that one of the twelve would betray Him. One by one they asked ,the question. Is it I? Christ answer- ed and said unto thein it is one of 'tate twelve, that dippeth with . me in the dish. To -day let us deal with the ten .eoinmandments,' God explains, to us the reason for our obedience to Him. "I am the Lord thy God" -That should he sufficient reason for us•to obey -His commands. "Thou shalt have no other God's !before me " We sometimes say "That does not refer to pie, I never put any other God before the only true God!" •Many times we do, we put gold, plea- sure, dress, amusements and many other things before God. In many instances even graven images are 'worshipped before God. The fact that -we will not worship Christ proves :that we put Another God before Rim. Our worship is due to God alone. Let us be sure that in our daily life we do not put anything else before Hint. It is a very easy thing to do and we .Must constantly pray that God will ..have first place in our. lives. Else in response to that command we will be saying "Lordis it I?" the Sabbath Day in a way not ap- pointed by Him we immediately say "I keep the Sabbath Day." but do we? When eve compare the Sabbath as it was kept in our homes hi our young days with the way it now being kept we feel thankful that we were brought up in the day's of long ago. Now we not only stay away from church our- selves, but we go visiting on the Lord's Day and keep others away from His House. Our friends stayed home and entertained us because they were afraid we would think they were not hospitable. We should pay :no attention to what others think of u$ in this matter. God's commane should come first. At the great judg- ment day we will find ourselves re- sponsible to God not to our. friends. At that time we will be pleading for mercy and our acquaintances who have helped us break the Sabbath will not be there to plead for us. Let us give our friends to understand that we do not appreciate Sunday vis- itors, that we have an appointment with our Saviour. Wheat they come to understand that we will have little trouble along tliat line. God warns u5 against the use of profane language. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord tvi11 not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain, "When we think over this com- mand we have to ask ourselves the `Question "Lord, is it I?" Have I tak- en the name of the Lord in vain. Have Shame on those sons and daughters, • we used slang of the present day?

When we are talking own home, but God knows all about to cultured educated people does it that and He will provide a place for if the result of these things could be forseen if these triangular courtships would cease. How will we at the last day account for these misdeeds. "Lord is it I?" "Thou shalt not steal"' there are many things w•hieh we may steal be- sides property. We inay perhaps thoughtlessly and maybe wilfully steal someones good name. "We may steal in business when we are dis- honest and we steal directly from God when we retain for our own purposes the tenth of our income. God owns' all we have and bas merely loaned it to us. It is our duty to return our tithe to Him, so that His work may be carried on, . ' Do we ever covet anything some one else has? Bad friends leave been made many tithes just over -that same thing. People as a rule are very gen- erous with anything they have, At times people have an idea how to make a certain thing and they would not ler the world tell you how to make it. In fact they glory in the thought they can do something which few others .can, Is that not selfish? If the Lord spoke to us along the line of coveting wouldwe have to say "Loud is it I?" Let us not covet any- thing belonging to other's and always be ready to share our thoughts and ideas. Then we have that beautiful com- mand "Honour thy father and thy mother," This .is the first command - anent with promise "That thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord. thy God giveth thee." Why should such a command ever have had to be made? rust simply because there are many of us who are only too anxious to give those who have done so much for us over into the Lends of strangers. We feel that if they lived with us, and should be taken sick we would have to give up some of our time to care for them. foundland, the rate being 12 cents a pound.

The fact that we ask "Lord ,is it I?" teaches us that we have a guilty conscience. Judas at once knew that he was the guilty party referred to by Christ so he got up and went out about his work of betraying Christ for true thirty pieces of silver. We can well imagine the regret that was his lot when he realized what he had done. "I lay my sins on Jesus The spotless Lamb of God; He bears them all, and frees us Froin the accursed load.

Don't be afraid to tilt your camera If It gives you the effect you want. CAMERA angle fascinates many picture hobbyists. Wisely used it is a splendid tool, and with it many a picture can be made more dramatic. But, like pepper in soup, it should be employed with care. Random, indiscriminate "angle shooting" without sound purpose is not the source of better pictures. Of course, a camera can be used at any angle—level, tilted up or down, right or left—but the angle used should always be determined by the effect desired. If you want a natural "drawing" of any subject, a level camera le essential. But if a "skyscraper" effect is the thing you want to achieve, you'll have to choose a low viewpoint and tilt your camera upward. Generally speaking, a low view- peint is dramatic. It gives a feeling of movement and action to the -sub- ject. It is admirably adapted to pic- turing sports, to emphasizing the height of buildings, to making bold and forceful pictures of people. .A high angle of view, on the other band, tends to dwarf the im- portance of a subject. Sometimes, as 18 the case in street and parade scenes, it gives a clear over-all view without any nearby figures cluttering the scene. But its most general application is to reduce the importance of an object. .Ar high angle, looking down on the subject, for example, will make a tall man look shorter. Tilting the camera, either to the right or left, will sometimes pro- duce a greater feeling of action in the picture—because diagonal lines are -inherently those of movement —but sidewise tilts are usually more helpful in arranging the ele- ments of the picture more inter- estingly within the picture space, than for producing any specific ef- fect. This kind of "angling" should, however, be confined to subjects with sky as background so that lines that we know are horizontal or vertical will not appear askew. In any event, angle shooting is. entertaining and instructive. It may be employed freely whenever the desired effect is best achieved In that manner. But don't tilt at ran- dom. Know exactly what you want to get, and then let any angle shot help you to get it. John van Guilder
