Some Good Advice On Wood Cutting "On farms where wood is still burned it is a good plan to get the times: felled, trimmed and skidded as soon as fall ploughing is fin- ished, so these logs can be easily got at to draw there to the wood yard near the house," says the Hon, Duncan Marshall. "The days of cutting wood with cross -cut saws is over it now is being done by a small circular saw rigged in a frame for the purpose. Once the logs are at the wood yard it only nienne a few -hours of a wood bee to cut them. Get this clone early and the blocks can be split easiest when they have had some heavy frost. Much better, • of course, if the wood is green. Live trees shouid,be cut only, however, when there arm no dead ones in the wood lot to cut. A small piece of bush is a fine asset to any farm and eaves. an annual expenditure for fuel that seems to be growing larger. Everything should be ready for winter this year, as 1942 will be remembered as a good year on the land."

Plsce.-Stephen was martyred in the city of Jerusalein. The . Apostle Poul wrote the Epistle from which a passage is taken for this lesson to the Christian church situated. in Rome, the great capital of the Roman Empire. Renew The Mind 1. "1 beseech thee therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service." As Paul undertakes to • describe the Chrsitian life, he begins with the body which has so much to do -e with the life we lead. 2. "And be not fashioned ac- cording to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good, the acceptable and perfect will of God," We are according to what we think and when our Mind is renewed or changed, then the are changed. The result is that wo are enabled to test and determine what is God's good and acceptable and perfect will for us. Anything less than, or contrary to, the will of God is not for our good, is not pleasing to God and is not cam - pie te. am-piece. Measure of Faith 3.

The wasp and prudent man will remember that Iia position in the community is dependent not oh' any merit of Ida own, but on the measure of his faith, and that faith is the gift of God; ' Life Among Believers. 9(a). "Let love be without hypocrisy."' Christians are not to love others by merely saying they do, and then living in such a was that it is clear they do not, but they are to love men in truth, 9 (b). "Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good." This admonition is something for us to do. It reclaims an effort, Unmanly speaking, it is so easy to cleave to the evil and let go the good. But if the spirit of God indwells us, we will, by our new nature, shrink from the evil and we will plan our life so that good- ness may attend our way and call us to a higher place of life. Brotherly Love 10. "In love of the brethren be tenderly affectionate one to an- other; in honor preferring one an- other." Christians should love each other with the same sincerity and tenderness as if they were the nearest Relatives. 11. "In diligence not slothful; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord." There is nothing so in- excusable in the Christian life es indolence in the service of Christ, 12. "Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing sted•• featly in prayer.." Hope, patience and prayer are not only duties but the richest sources of con- solation and support, Virtue of Hospitality 13. "Communicating to the necessities of the saints; given, to hospitality." From the very bo - ginning hospitality was recog- nized as one of the most import- ant of Christian duties. The Christians looked upon themselves as a body of mon scattered throughout the world, living as aliens among strange people, and therefore bound together as the members of a body, as the breth- ren of one family. The practical realization of this idea would de- mand that whenever a Christian went frons one place to another he should find a home among the Christians. One necessary part of such intercommunion would be the 'constant carrying out of the . duties of hospitality. 14. "Bless them that persecute you; blessand curse not." For illustration perfect of this truth in our Lord's own life, see Luke 28:34. 15. "Rejoice with them that re- joice; weep with them that weep." Christians must never think that concern for our spiritual life should ever lead to indifference to the experiences of other people. 16. "Be of the same mind one toward another. Set not your minds on high things, but con- descend to things that are lowly." For communities and for indivi.' duals the cherishing of the spirit of amity and concord is a condi- tion without which there will be little progress in Christian life. Life In Man's World 17. "Render to no man evil for good. Take thought for things honorable in the sight of all nen." Do not drift into inconsistency. Watch against what others may fairly think to be unchristian in you. • 18. "If it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men." To keep the peace will be hard at tithes but it will be worthwhile. 19. "Avenge not yourselves, be. loved, but give place unto the wrath of God: for it is written, vengeance belongeth unto me; 1 will recompense saith the Lord." God has long ago settled the whole matter by exacting justice from wrong -doers. Not one will escape. In every case perfect justice will be done. Victory of Love 20. "But if thine enemy hun- ger, feed him; if he thirst, give him to drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head." In thus doing you will be taking the most effectual ven- geance; the idea of vengeance be- ing 'transformed' so as' to become in fact the 'victory of love,' 21. "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Alin at that which is good and the assaults of evil will have lost half their power. On Christmas Eve ,bells will ring cut over the city of Toronto and over the national network of the C.13,C. , bells from the Bert House carillon in the Sol - fliers' Tower, J. Leland Richard- son, well known carilloneur will play the twenty-three bells of the Memorial Tower commencing et 7.15 p.m. Mr. Riobardaon studied the art of the carillon in Belgium, one of the eldest homes of the bell and bell -playing, and it is said that he has committed to memory more than a thousand melodies of the bells. Somehow or other we always associate Christmas Eva with the pealing of bells, Here will be an appro- priate opportunity to enjoy a charming prelude to the Day of the Great Festival itself. * * * Another highlight of Christmas Eve will bo the singing of "Silent Night" and "Adeste Fidelis" dur- ing the Music Hall programme which gets under way at 9 p.m. ,and will be heard over the facili- ties of the C.B.C. 'The singer of these charming carols will be none other than that dean of vocal melody, Ring Crosby. Some time ago when Bing was asked to record these well known hymns, he was a bit worried about public reaction to the singing of sacred music by an artist whose name is associated with popular songs, However he was soon to be re- assured. The sale of the records was soon to top that of any other records Bing had ever made, Last year the profits from these record- ings were used by him to finance entertainment for soldiers ... a generous gesture. * * *• The big highlight of the Christ- mas Day programme will be, of course, the all -world broadcast scheduled from 9 to 10,15 a.m. It is one of the most pretentious productions ever scheduled in the sphere of radio broadcasting, will provide pickups from five eontin- ants, and may be heard from practically every broadcasting sta- tion operating in countries where the English language is spoken or extensively understood. The pro- gramme is patterned to reveal tc the world at large the manner in which the United Nations are ob- serving Christmas Day. As just a few of the special features it will inolude interviews with fight- inn• hien in China,' Russia end North Africa, It will portray a workers' playtime period in a busy factory of England. Et will bring carols from an Anglican Oathe•• dral. It will take you to a sol- diers' party in London, 'a Scottish celebration in the Land o' the Heather, as well as to bring mes- sages of Christmas goodwill or. iginating in Canada, South Africa, New Zealand and India. From mercilessly bombed Malta, that unsinkable aircraft -carrier': of the mid -Mediterranean es it is called, will come the good cheer of a , children's Christmas party, The • presentation will conclude with "a measage from a distinguished deader of the British Empire, His identity will be matte known later." So at least promises • an official bulletin. Who will it bel Two guesses, and you can hardly be wrong. * * * The All Star Christmas party of the Columbia Broadcasting System announced from 4 to 6 p.m. Christmas Day Will certainly be sky-high in popular appeal tap. Already some of the best known entertainers of the North Ameri- can ether waves are scheduled to participate. Under the well known M.C. Don Ameche such popular artists as Bob Hope, Bette Davis and Abbott and Costello will bo brought to the microphone in a programme which promises scin- tillating entertainment. Very ap- propriately it's named the "All Star" Christmas party. CFRB, Toronto will carry the show. * * * And lest we forget. The day after Christmas is always one when we all sort of sit back and relax after the pressure of the Festive Season. Even Santa Claus, we imagine wants to take it easy for a day or two after his busy activities. It is specifically to Santa Claus, and to thousands of C.B.C. listeners as well, that Songstress Gail Meredith, Satur- day evening 7,15, will dedicate a programme of "Songs to Remem- ber" .. . those quiet old loveable melodies of which we never tire and very appropriate to bho after Christmas "mood." * * * "May the.spirit of Christmas be yours 365 days in the Year."

CFRB-860 on your dint THE BOOK SHELF THERE IS TODAY By Josephine Lawrence Josephine Lawrence has given us an American couple who can be found today in every city and town in America—e couple with courage and faith who are faced with the problem of whether to snatch what happiness they can before the service calls or to post- pone marriage for the uncertain duration. She surrounds her couple with kindly and unkindly neighbors that include hoarders, hysterical club -women war work- ers, engaged couples, and the out- standing figure of Mrs. Tont Fitts who would rather parade, wear a uniform, serve on corn- mittees, do up bpndles for far away places than keep house for her husband or help the poor. Candace and Andy, who bravely marry with the draft staring them in the face, crowd their happiness into the months that remain be- fore the dreaded hour when Andy is called. Scrimping and saving to make both ends meet, their baby Michael is born to them just a few days before Andy is in- ducted into the service. That charity begins at hone and that young couples are en- titled to marriage and a share of happiness in spite of the war is the main theme of Miss Law- rence's tender yet realistic navel of America today.
