'RADIO REPORTER RiyX FROS'i Oh. Oh! 21,705 Canadians failed to take out licenses for their radio receivers in 1943. The year before, there were 12,447 who list- ened in, but didn't pay in. So Says the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. But tate Bureau has apparently greeted 1044 in the spirit of optimism. They "hope" the figure of negligent license buyiug listeners will show a big decline. e * u WS a strange thing, but few top making stars la radio enjoy the privilege of a programme which actually bears their name. Much of the fittest talent of the air -waves is the subdued glitter under a title such as "Town Trail", "Star Theatre"' "Lux Radio Show," "ITit Parade" or some such headline.

Place — Tho quieting of the waves took place ou the Sea of Galilee; the country of Gadara is on the eastern shore of the same sea; the other two miracles took place In the city Capernaum. Quieting The Stormy Sea "Abd on that day, when even was come, he saith unto them, Let us go over unto the other side. & id leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat, And other boats were with him, And there arisetii a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, in- somuch that the boat was now filling:" What a parable of life! How often when life seems so calm and secure we are faced with a sudden and almost overwhelming crisis! A great calamity, sorrow, temptation overtakes us. At such an hour we are put to the test. Those who trust the Saviour will bo found equal to any emergency. A Perfect Trust "And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion: and they awake him, and say unto him, Teacher, cosiest thou not that we perish?" How perfect was Jesus' trust in His Heavenly Father! He had no fear for he knew all was well. "And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said Into the sea, Peace, be still, and there was a great calm. And he said unto them, why are ye fearful? Have ye not yet faith? And they fear- ed exceedingly, and said one to another, who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?" The diseiples should by this time have had faith, and faith would have delivered them from fear. The danger of the storm past they were seized with another fear, the fear of being close to one who could exert such power and to feel their own helplessness and lade of power. The Sorrowing Ruler "While he yet snake, they conte from the ruler' of the syna- gogue's house, saying, thy daugh- ter is dead: why troublesb thou the Teacher any further?" Noth- ing could be more final than the words, 'Thy daughter is dead,' and there was obviously no ex pectation iu the ruler's house that even Jesus could now be of any service. They had believed that Jesus could heal the sick, but that He could raise the dead was beyond their belief. The Select Three "But Jesus, not beetling the word spoken, with unto the ruler of the synagogue, Lear not, only believe. And he suffered no pian to follow with him, are Peter, and James, and Jolm the brother of James.

Clarke W * P * I Hullo, everybody — I have a question for you, It's this: How would you like to live in a "solar home"—or in other words — "a glass house"? I hope ;it doesn't sound too crazy to you, because, according to the January Reader's Digest, solar hones may become very popular atter the war. These houses are built with all the main rooms facing south be- hind an almost "unbroken' expanse of glass and with a four foot cave which shuts out the direct rays of the sun in summer but allows the winter sun to stream in at will. In solar homes fuel bills can be cut 'as !puch as thirty-eight per- cent below average; eyestrain is lessened and light hills reduced. * >x * however the article cloesu't tell he beholdeth a tumult, and many meeting and wailing greatly." Jesus suffers no further inter- ruption. Ile took with Him three of the Twelve as witnesses, but them alone. Thus is the first an- poarance of the select circle of throe within the closer circle of the Twelve. At Jewish funerals professional mourners maintained a noisy lamentation over the dead. The Crowd Is Rebuked "And when he was entered in, he sattlt unto them, Why matte ye a tumult, and weep? The child is not dead, but sleepeth." Wlteii our Lord said that the child was not dead but only asleep He did not mean that she was not actually dead, but that the death that was hers would now be ended as sleep is ended with our awakening. "And they laughed hint to scorn. But he, staving put them all forth, taketh the father of the child and her mother and them that were with him and goeth in where the child was." Jesus put them out be- cause it was unfitting to have this noisy, jeering trowel about Him on an mutest= so solemn and path- etic. athetic. it was fitting to have a few chosen wltnesseS present with the stricken patents. The Miracle of Resurrection "And taking the child by the hand, he sattlt unto her, Taittlfa cumi,; whirh is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, Arise." The word 'Talitlia' is a word of affection and endearment answer - Mg to the words `sty child: "And straightway ay the damsel rose up, and walked, for site was twelve .years old. And they were amazed straightway with a great amazement. And he charged them much that no plan should know this: and he . commanded that something should he given her to eat" This is our Lord's first recorded miracle or resuu'ectiou, Christ's command to give the child some- thing to oat would prove the real- ity of the miracle and $omplett- tress of tho restoration. But why did Christ charge those present to keep the matter secret? Imag- ins what uncontrolled excitement and confusion would have arisen had people heard He could raise the dead. It would lnbuler rather than help Its ministry. Ile took these of the Twelve as witnesses that FIis power over death might be published later. you how to keep windows "un- broken" nor how many hours a week it would take to clean the windows, nor how much it would cost to buy shades and curtains for them. I wonder what would hempen to that unbroken expanse of glass should the small fry play baseball in summer or throw snowballs in winter! It doesn't sound too practical does it? And yet I am sure the idea has much to commend it. Personally I think most houses are far too dreary. I love rooms with the sun streaming in through the windows. "Ah, but that is hard on the carpets and drapes," dict you say? Well, I suppose it Is —but I must confess I would rather have a faded carpet in a bright room than a bright carpet in a shaded room. a * >H But keeping the windows clean so that the sun can get in — WeIl, that's something else again. Right now I am sitting in our living -room and the sun 1s flood - Ing the room with warmth and light, but you would wonder at it getting through at all for the windows are so grey looking. And that, let me tell you is the direct result of using steam coal. And as long as I em using steam coal my windows will be dirty, for as fast as I can clean them they get murky again. However, the time is approaching when our supply ot this dirty, smoky, ,hard -on -the - temper fuel will be exhausted-- and xhausted—and we are sot getting any morel And yet you know I like it if only it were not so dirty. It is the grandest coal to start a fire 1 ever knew. And that of course 1s why Partner likes it so well. I ani quite sure he would be content to use it for the rest of the winter —providing the house didn't burn up before the winter was over as a result. But of course, Partner isn't sweeping and dusting, and cleaning flues anti trying, without success, to keep the feather -weight soot from flying every which -way, If he were he might not be so anx- ious to go on using it.
