Anrnoneit's List Five Cattle The Ammoneit family, oncewell- known residents of Carrick, and later of Nornanby, and now occupying a farm in Howick, missed five head of cattle from ,their herd last week. As soon as the loss was detected, they set to work to try to locate the';cat- tle.

The tracks finally led to the home of a Howie': farmer., a mile orso north of Gorrie, and : the police were notif- ied. The farmer, in whose stable the cattle were found wasplaced under arrest, as well as his neighbor, who is alleged tohave been a party to the theft. The former ,has now been admitted to bail.

Knocked Down by Transport The risk that :children undergo in hanging on farmers' sleighs and cut- ters, and heedlessly rushing frond• one vehicle to another on the main street of the town, was demonstrated in a colorful manner last Monday after- noon about 4 o'clock, when. Laura Rogers, the '5 -year-old daughter of Mr. Thomas Rogers, new electrician at the Hydro power plant here, •nar- rowly= escaped a tragic death, when she leaped off a farmer's sleigh in front of her home in the Bruce apts. over Schuett's furniture store, and ran in the 'path of a heavily loaded motor transport.

Crashes Through Plate Glass —Badly Cut While attempting to remove an awning from in front of his father's office, Edmund Ward, son of Dr: and Mrs. John Ward, had a narrow es- cape from death on Monday after- noon when the ladder on which he was standing slipped, and ladder and young man crashed a through a large e plate glass window, Ed. landing on a jagged edge of glass which punc- tured the abdomen. He yshowed a great deal of grit as he was assisted to the office, of Dr. Fletcher a 'short distance away, where the wound was dressed and later he was removed to Victoria Hospital in London. He perhaps owes his life to the fact that the glass struck a rib or otherwise it would have penetrated further. -- Exeter Exeter Times -Advocate. Tire Exploded in Face - There is at least one young man in Brant, who, regardless of what at- titude may be on the principle of in- flation of Canadian currency, will vigorously oppose in future any un- due inflation of his automobile tires. This chap, Jack Rutchart, 21 -year-old son of Mr. Stewart Butchart, of the 13th Con., Brant, was about to leave home for Walkerton with the family machine, and just prior to the hop -off realized that one of the tires was ov- er inflated. While in the act of stoop- ing by the wheel adjusting the valve that would release the surplus pres- sure, and with his face but a few in- ches from the weakest part of the tire, the casing exploded with a bang in his peepers that hurled the adjust- er on his back some distance away where he was almost as completely knocked out as if a bomb had been planted under his steppers and touch- ed off.—Walkerton Herald -Times. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON PAUL IN EPHESUS Sunday, Dec. 3—Acts 19: 8-20 Golden Text: Blessed are they which are perse- cuted for righteousness sake. (Matt. 1:10.) People are not saved merely by re- penting of their sins. Something more is needed -a Saviour. There is strik- ing evidence of this in our lesson. An Alexandrian Jew named Apollos was a very eloquent man, and 'mighty in the Scriptures'; that is, he knew his Bible, which was our Old Testa- ment, thoroughly, But he had been trained only in "the baptism of John" the Baptist, and John's great message was "Repent ye .:. Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make His paths straight" (Matt. 3: 2.3. That is, John urged with flaming eloquence that inert should turn from their sins and be ready for the Messiah and Saviour when He came. or That was good so far as it went, but it was only preliminary to the preaching of the Gospel, which Ap ollos did not yet know. Paul, when he came to Ephesus, ,found "certain disciples" who evidently were sincere and earnest men, but wlro lacked, something,. "they had been under the teaching of Apollos, and Paul asked them; "Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye believed?" This 'correct ren- dering is given in the Revised 'Vers- ion They answered that they had "not so much as heard whether there he anyl Holy Ghost." Paul questioned that further, and found they knew only "John's baptism.' Then Paul carried the faith of these disciples intelligently forward, ex- plainingthat John's 'Baptism of re PAGE TEI.R: seaec BRAND CORN SYRUP 41 ilo ®Mita CORN SYRUP pure wholeso and economical table Syrup.

Glady these men then accept Christ as their Saviour, and "we baptized in the name of the Lo Jesus. And when Paul had. laid h hands upon them; and they spa with `tongues, and prophesied." The were theevidences or "signs'/ th God gave at that time, at the begi ning of the new dispensation of grac of the coming of the Holy Spirit in believers' lives, The New Testamei makes it plain, however, that thes signs, then given, were not to be u derstood as permanently needed prove the coming •of the Holy Spir into a believer's life. Paul wrote la er by inspiration, "whether there b tongues, they shall, cease" (1 Cor. 13 8). But every believer, in the mo Ment of 'receiving Christ by faith a Saviour, receives the baptism of th Holy Spirit: "for by one Spirit ar we all baptized into one body, wheth er we be Jews- or Gentiles" •(1 Co 12;13). Paul was•i given one of his greatest ministries in Ephesus. . First he de- voted three months to proclaiming boldly, in the synagogues of the Jews Jesus as the Messiah. When many however, "were hardened, and.believ ed not, but spake evil of that wa before the multitude, he departed from them," and •the true believers stayed with him as he continued to preach Christ to the Gentiles as well as to the Jews. This ministry bore such large fruit that he remained on in Ephesus for two years, and the en- tire population of the province of Asia "heard the word of the Lord Jesus." Sensational events kept on happen ing. Certain "vagabond Jews" tried to imitate Paul's casting out of de mons in the name of the Lord Jesus but the evil spirits turned against them, crying out: "Jesus,, 2 know, and Paul I know, but who are ye?" The demon -possessed roan attacked these imposters so that they had to flee, naked and wounded; but this only re- sulted in the turning of greater num- bers in -:rue faith in Christ. A great revival broke out, and the books- of false religions were publicly burned by the converts, "and they counted the price of them, and found it 50,000 pieces of . silver." Ephesus was the site of the great and beautiful Grecian temple of the goddess Diana. So many were turn- ed from Diana to Jesus that the trade of the silversmiths, who made silver shrines for Diana, was seriously un- paired. Then followed the famous riot, when the people, under the in- stigation of the silver shrine makers, rushed into the open air theatre and "all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana ld of the Ephesians." They would have me ,done mob violence -to Paul if they could have laid hold of him. The riot ed was finally quelled by the town clerk, re ,and Paul moved on in his missionary rd journeying is' After revisiting earlier fields he ke 'came to Miletus, south of Ephesus, se whence he planned to sail for Syria at I in order: to reach Jerusalem by the 1 n- i clay of Pentecost. e, At Miletus a beautiful scene oc- to Icurred. He r sent and asked the elders it of the church at Ephesus to conte to e !hint, and he had a farewell meeting n- with them, remarkable for its Chris - to tian fellowship and deep human a£- it fection. He rehearsed some of his ex- t- periences among them, and reminded e them of the teaching he had given them—"repentance toward God, and - faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ." s He felt that he must now go to Jer- e usalexn, and he knew not what lay e ahead, except "that bonds and afflic- - tions abide me." r. With prophetic understanding Paul declared to them that they should see his face -no but "watch and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. And now, \brethren, I 'recommend you to God, - and to the word of His grace, which y is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all tliem which are sanctified." Then Paul kneeled, "and prayed with them all," and we read that his beloved Christian friends broke down and wept as they embraced and kiss- ed him in their last good-bye on this earth. What a reunion they must all be having in the presence of the Lordl Parasites of Horses Winter is the season when parasit es of animals get the best foothold. For instance, a single pair of mange mites of horses are capable of pro- ducing a million and a •half descend- ants in aboei three months under fa- vourable conditions. These mange mites belong to a large order of par- asites which is divided into many fam- ilies. Those affecting horses are clas- sified into three different kinds. A great deal has been discovered con- cerning the life history of these mit- es, but it is evident that some of their habits are still unknown. However, everything that is known as to their cause and cure is set forth by the Dominion Chief Veterinary Inspector in "Parasites of Horses" bulletin 152 of the Dominion' Department of Ag- riculture.
