Matt. v. 45. "
When we are urged by the children
of poverty to assist them!, we do well
o
distinguish between the precious
and the vile, between those whose pe-
titions flow from necessity and those
who fly to beggary as a trade. To be-
stow our benefactions on ttie latter,
would often be to sanction Practices
alike disgraceful to the individual, and
injurious to the community. If any
will •not work, neither should he eat.
Yet, on the other hand, we Hurst not
shut up the bowels of compassion
even from the unworthy, 'Wh'ile re-
tieving the .palpable wretchedness in
which we array sometimes see them in
volved, we can scarcely fail to recol-
lect, as a motive to our kind inter-
position, that, if God showed kindness
only to those whose characters en-
titled them to expect it, the condition
of the best would soon became for-
lorn and hopeless. It may be said,
"Men of had principles will make an
ill use of your bounty," What then 1
The goodness exenptilfied under such
circumstances assimilates us to our
Father which is in heaven, ar'ho
"sendeth rain on the just and unjust."
This recollection, combined with e
prudential regard to 'he best method
of treating each particular case, will
secure us alike from the imputation,
of 'harshness, and from the danger, of
encouraging idle and profligate habits;
it will preserve our ,charitable feelings,
without suffering the exercise of them
to prejudice the community.
On The Psalms.
Psalm V,
9. For there is no faithfulness in
their mouth, their inward part is very
wickedness; their throat is an open
sepulchre; they flatter with their ton-
gue.
A part of this verse is cited, Rom.
iii, 13. together with several other
passages from the Psalms and Pro-
phets, to evince the depravity of man
kind, whether Jews or Gentiles, till
justified .by faith and renewed by
grace. It is plain, therefore, that the
description was designed for others,
besides the enemies of the 'literal
David, and is of more general import,
reaching to the world of the ungod-
ly, and to the enemies of all righte-
The Premium Clydesdale Stallion ousness, as manifested in the person
of Messiah, and in his church. The
charge brought against these is, that
truth and fidelity were nut to be
found in their dealings with God or
each other; that their 'inward parts'
were very wickedness, their first
thoughts and invaginations were de-
fined, 'and the stream was poisoned
at the fountain; that their 'throat teas
an open sepulchre,' continually emit -
ring, in obscene and impious langtt-
age, the noisome and infectious ex-
halations of a putrid heart, entombed.
in a body of sin,' and that if ever they
put on the appearance of goodness,
they 'flattered with their tongue,' in
order the more effectuktly to deceive
and destroy. So low is human- nature
fallen! '0 thou Adam, what hast thou
done? 'For though it was thou that
sinned, thou art not fallen alone, but,
we all that come of thee.' -2 Esd.
vii. 4S. '
10. Destroy thou them; 0 God;
let them fall by their own counsels;
cast t'hetn out in the multitude of their
transgressions, for they have rebelled
against thee.
Concerning passages of this impre-
catory kind in the book of Psalms, it
is to be observed that they are not
spoken of as private and personal en-
emies, but of the opposers of God
and his anointed; nor of any among
these, but, the irreclaimable and' final-
ly impenitent; and this by way of
prediction rather than imprecation;
which would appear if the original
The Pure Bred Percheron, Stallion verbs were translated uniformly in the
future tense, as they might he. The
verse would then rim thus—'Thou
wilt destroy therm, O God1 they shalt
perish by their own counsels: thou
wilt cast them :out in the m ultitnde of
their transgressions, for they have
rebelled agaitss't thee.' The words,
when rendered in this form, contain a
prophecy of the infatuation, rejection,
and destruction of such as should ob-
stinately persevere in their opposition
to the counsels of heaven, whether re-
lating to Daviel, Christ, qr to the
church. The fate of Alrit'hophel and
Absalom, and of Judas should warn
others nat• to offend after the satire
example. ,
11, .But let all these, that trust in
thee rejoice; let them ever shoutfor
joy, 'because %thou defendest 'thein:
let them :also that love thy name be
joyful in thee.

tion of the ungodly, this describes
the felicity of the saints; who, trusting

coming into bloom at the present
time can be trade to produce a sec-
ond set of flowers;' The delphinium,

present performance in ,September
if all' flower stalks after two-thirds
of the spikes have gone to seed, are
cut to the ground. This may mean
cutting .everything, but of course if
there is any stili -supporting leaf
growth or new shoots these should
be left. The phlox, which will bloom
a tittle later, should have all fading
flowers sheared off, but it is not
necessary to remove the stalks. Even
the columbine, if all flowering stalks
that have gone to seed are kept re-
moved, will continue to flower. After
this old bloom is removed in all cases
it is .well to dress the soil about the
plants with some good fertilizer, pre-
ferably bone meal. 'When the new
growth appears, feed with liquid sheep

d The National Advisory Council on
Radio in Education has gone quietly
to work in its attempt to attack
the general pro'bleun of program im-
provement, The more one studies the
situation the more he is impressed
with the large amounts of time and
stoney necessary to produce adequate
educational broadcasts; le a field less
complicated than radio it would ordi-
narily not be necessary to so regu-
larly inisist upon the best. But be-
cause of the competition for • time
on the air and the ease with which
a Listener may cease to become a
listener, a wide variety of programs
to attract the auditor are most
important considerations. Merely.
"putting education on the air" is
not enough.
'Competition efor facilities over
which to send educational matter is
likely to increase rather than diminish.
Indications, therefore. are that
mediocre educational programs will
not survive. !Broadcasting at best
is a highly expensive undertaking.
The need for 'guarding against waste
in every operation is self-evident.
The National Advisory Council has
assembled educators specially quali-
fied in the various subjects to be
presented. It will continue to enlist
them to study program possibilities.
The ptulpose will be to decide what
is the best subject -matter to put on
the air and by whom it should he
presented.
d but within fifteen minutes we were in.
EDUCATIONAL RADIO.
Radio which has 'grown' More or
less wildly for ten years, as far as
educational 'broadcasts are concerned,
is now to have an Advisory Board
for Education.
The National Advisory Council of
Radio Edtilcation spons'ared by John
D. Rockefeller Jr. and theCarnegie
Corporation has been organized to
guide the microphone into educational
realms. It will serve as a clearing,
house for information, statistics and
research work that will assist in
building educational programs. Ef-
forts will be made to make education
entertaining. The broadcasters have
learned that education on the air to
be effective must have showmanship
behind it. The pills must be sugar-
coated with music or drama. The
council will point out by conference,
publication or by lecture the educa-
tional opportunities in broadcasting
and in television. It will mobilize
educational authorities to serve in an
advisory capacity.
There is little doubt that more
people arse listening to broadcast pro-
grams than ever before, yet no
method of measuring listener reaction
has been developed in a scientific
way. Will the American public ever
take radio seriously as an educational
medium Time will answer this
question. !Broadcasters usually rely
upon nail and the general expression
of public opinion to gattge listener
reaction to a program.
There has never been a field where
competition for popular attention has
been as keen as it is in broadcasting.
Consequently, the general program
level has continued' high. But, un-
questionably, thinking people are in-
creasingly, of the opinion that adver-
tising .on
dver-tising;on- the radio is becoming too
blatant. The high regard in which
a program might otherwise be held is
in many instances nullified by un-
necessary emphasis on sponsorship.
Will radio kill its goose that lays
the golden eggs? +It trust be ad-
mitted, however, that many listeners
raise no objection whatever to ad-
vertising on the radio, which might
be more pleasant were the commer-
cialism removed,
Although 1930 saw- no diminution of
activity in the educational broadcast-
ing field there was no appreciable
advance in such programs. Little ;vas
accomplished except . to refine earlier
practices. Various "schools of the
air" did their work a little better
than before. • There were extensions
of such features as the Dantrosch
concerts to school children, the
League of Women 'Voters' programs
on government topics, and the For-
eign Policy Associations talks on
foreign affairs. 'National chains and

THE NOISE IN THE NIGHT
Even the soundest sleeper would
have wakened with a start if he had
been with Marley Webster and his
two companions, Jackson and Wit-
liams, on a certain stormy !night in
tate fall of 1899. The little party had
delivered a herd of cattle at Dawson.
Yukon, and was returning to S'kagway
in haste to catch the fast steamer for
Seattle.
They had reached an extremely
rugged region just north of Actin
Lake tvhe:e the Rock !'fountains ap-
pear as a succession of sinister jag-
ged peaks when Williams suggested
that they take a short cut to .the next
valley by skirting the shoulder of a
towering mass of' rock•that lay just
ahead. The three turned and, facing
the wind, began to climb steadily.
When they reached the pass over the
range they were able to see the val-
ley that they hoped to reach that af-
ternoon.
The three of us, says lir. Webster,
were
were skirting the edge of a great
slope so steep that litgle snow had
lodged on it. Two thousand feet
above us loomed the snow-covered
peak of 'the mountain, and here and
there we saw outcropping ledges front
which +occasionat boulders that the
storm had loosened thundered down
diose to us. We hoped to reach safe-
ty before the storm became worse
the midst of a pitiless arctic: blizzard.
When the first, flakes began 'to falhl
Jackson urged that we camp 'wheme
we stood, but 1 protested and point
ed out a refuge not more titan a hun-
dred .yards 'ahead that 'looked like a
slight crest an the tnpuntajn side.
"There, :f told my comrades, we .should
runtless risk from the .intermittent.
showers of rocks than if we remained'
where we were.
Jackson and Williams reluctantly
yielded to my proposal. Although
the crest,, which stood out li'k'e a
razorback, was only a shgrt distance
away, the eddying blasts swirling Sh•e
snow like sharp sand in our faces al-
most prevented us from walking towL
and it. For a quarter of an hour we
groped our way, and at times we had
to crawl within four or ,five feet of the
edge of the gorge at our left. It we
had plunged down, we should have
fallen sheer a thousand feet and then
rolled a. half mile into the canyon, The
going was so hard that Jackson final-
ly pleaded with us to stop and make
the best of aur situation he said that
he could not lift one foot ahead of the
other. But I reasoned that the rocky
point could not be more than a hun-
dred feet from us now; so Williams
and I dragged him, and at last we
reached the. crest. Then after repeat-
ed rests we pulled our weakened com-
rade to the lee of several boulders and
wrapped him snugly in a piece of our
tenting. Then Williams and I bund-
led ourselves up and laiy down close
to him for warmth. ,
I have no means of knowing boron
long we slept. I awoke as a demoniac
noise like screaming shook the air;
the earth was vibrating as if there
were an earthquake. I looked from
my covert, but all ,was dark. The vi-
bration lasted not more than ten
seconds; 'then I heard the stac'ca'to
rending of wood. Suddenly the din
ceased, attd I closed my eyes.
At daybreak I struggled out of the
covering and looked upward. There
vas the same white cap on the peak,
but from a point perhaps a hundred
yards from the sunlit and for a width
of fully a quarter of a mile the mown
alit side was clear of snow. Thous
ads of tons of snow and rock had
slipped down- the slope while we
lept. The avalanche 'had split against
he ridge that sheltered us, and ,pari
1 the snow and rock had plunged
ver the precipice on either side of

ack along the way we had come. The
valanche had swept away every-
hing movable to within twenty feet

When Jackson and Williams awoke
ud saw what had happened they
urned white and gasped. After that
here was no question %rho should
