It is the earl- iest of the holidays of the summer season, That is the day' when the mainpart of the garden is put in, but the afternoon is usually counted on for pleasure, One of the chief sports of the day is fishing. In olden time's the :matt- cur Isaac Walton took his spade, went out into the garden and there gathered what was, at that tune, the standard fishing bait and with these stirring creatures, packed in mud in a tin can, and a rod sometimes only a long bxanch of a tree he started off for the afternoon fun. As the creeks were not fished out then he usually returned with quite a string of'different kinds of fish. Fish laws in the early days were practically unknown. Now, one of the principal pleasures to a fisherman is the preparation, Sometime previous' to the great day he decides just where he is going and what kind of fishing he is go- ing to do. From among his fish Iines he selects flies, spoons, plugs and othergadgets. The old time five cent bamboo rod tied -with a string is no, longer used by him. The pres- ent fisherman carries a rod which cost money and is carefully packed in a canvas or leather case. Quite often he comes hone with a good catch, but sometimes with nothing, not even the cat fish as of yore. The old time fisherman sat on a bank, on a bridge, or the end of •a pier. Now he dons rubber boots, wades in- to'the stream or fishes from a boat, However the object in both Mstancee has been attained "a good time -was bad by all," The worries of the World have for the time being been forgotten and the happy memory or fishing days remains to think over in later. years. "He Didn't Media the Day as Lost. No futile cloud upon his sky, No doubt to drag, no care to borro The day was done and he would w t God's good to -morrow". RHUBARB JUICE Rhubarb time is here! Now i!i) the time to can the tasty rich -in. Ian juice to use in various bever- ages, jellied desserts and pudding sauces, Cut the rhubarb into small pieces — ,the large, older stalks that are not tender enough for sauce. ars all right for juice, Add just enough cold` water to cover, and cook them slowly in a covered kettle until soft. Do not boil the juice. Then strain out the juice by pouring the cooked rhubarb into a jelly bag and let it drip over -bight. In the morning there will be some sediment !of lthrely- divided pulp which was not removed by straining; be easeful when pouring off the clear juice not to mix this in, , or better yet, clarify the juice by pouring it through three or four lay- ers Of cheesecloth. If sugar is desired, add it now, in the proportion of half to one cup of sugar to each gallon of juice.' Next fill the jars with the juice, place a new rubber on each jar, adjust the cover, and partly seal the jar. by adjusting= only the upper clamp or by slightly screwing the lid. Then place the jars on a rack in a large kettle of water, make sure that the water covers the jars to a depth of at least one inch, and pas- teurize by ,keeping at a temperature between 160 and 170 degrees P., for 20 to 30 minutes, to destroy •any yeasts or molds that might be in it. Begin to count the time for pasteur- izing when the water reaches a tem- perature of 160 and 170 degrees F.; keep pint cans at this temperature for 20 minutes, and quarts for 30 minutes, Remove the jars from' the water bath and completely seal them. Cool them as rapidly as possible, avoiding a draft oil the jars. If de- sired, the juice may be diluted before serving, RETIRES AFTER 47 YEARS SERVICE Rev. E. C, Jennings, is retiring from the ministry after 47 years or service and being at the age of 70 Years, He had Hanover .and Allan Park Anglican churches as his first charges. Ile was born, in Forest to 1869, graduated front Huron College at London and was ordained by �I' Bishop Baldwin. He left Hanover in a L 1899, and then served at Bayfield, hingsville, Blenheim, Brantford, Dresden and ,has been at Warwick for 15 years. The record would seem to show that he was in Hanover seven years, sines he left there 40 years age and has been in the ministry for. 47 years. He will live retired in Lon- don. --Hanover Post. It is very interesting indeed to see the different flies }reed by, as he might be called, a professional fish- erman, Some of them 'are almost real enough to trick a human being let alone a fish. Yet sometimes it takes a very simple thing to retake a haul. A nothern pikeemay be caught on a piece of red flannel. When fish are hungry they will bite, at altnost anything, but when they are resting, as it is called, there must needs be a lot of deception to catch 'them. Bass and trout want flies The hum- gry and the resting fish may be found in the one pool at the same time. In our lives there are two differ- ent kinds of lures, There are the much adorned flies used by the devil as his lure by one means or another to entree the object of his search to follow worldly things. The bait which be uses to catch those tvho are hun- gry for the amusement of passing things is varied. One. of his chief lures is that "one might just as well have a good time when one can." There is na reason why we should have any doubt as to whether we are doing right or not. Gad has promised to guide us if we asic Him to and His promises are true and precious. The devil will lead us on from one thing to another, We know that before fishing one should not tramp along the bank of a stream as the vibration of wanting is con- veyed to the fish through the lateral line of nerve ends along theside of the fish. So the devil creeps itt very softly for his catch. On his fishing line he is cunning enough to have the most fancy gadgets but as he hires us hi we will be able' to bear his laugh of scorn, There is a right and a wrong in everything we do. May our daily prayer be that we may be led the right way. When we come to the end of our journey we can take no- thing o'f the world with us. If we have catered to the devil here we Have certainly not sent up ,material for our mansions above. If we get into heaven, at " all it will just be because God in His goodness has pecked out of otir lives the, 'Attie bits of work' for 'Hint, has put then; together and has made for us a very humble Eternal home, Why be caught on the fish, 'line of the devil when Christ is the most experienced "Fish- er of matt" and He has invited us to fish with Him? The bait He uses is not garnished with the idea of deceiving. He holds out to us the plain gospel of love, which leads us to salvation and lire KEEP AT IT If you toot your tooter and then throw away the horn, "there's not a soul itt a few short days will know that you were bore.

Eternal with Him He gives His love to us freely and this includes for- giveness of our silts. The devil can never oto that. The happiness'we have itt Christ is like some flowers, the mare the give, the more we have. Jesus makes his appeal to the deepest spiritual thing,: itt us, things which will lead us to help others and . which utill make us good "fishers of men." We have our choice of the two baits..

But charming sun- shiny pictures can be made just at easily indoors, wherever the rays of the sun stream through a window.

The pia. tare above is "backlighted" -- the sun comes from a window behind andslightly to one side of the sari. jecta.
