UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN ONTARIO 'The 'University was founded in `1578,: reorganized in.'. 1908 and renam- ed in 192e. It is a regional institu- tion, having, for its ' constituency the fourteen counties of Western Ontario. The University has three faculties, narriely, Arts, 1ledicine and Public Health, and five affiliated colleges. It is undenontinativnaland coeducation- al and is under provincial, municipal .and public control_ There . are 919 regular students enrolled,' while ap- proximately zoo more are studying. under University direction and super t inion but : are not working for de gr« t s. its courses are standard and its .degrees are accepted as equal to any- gra rted elsewhere.

Sec- ondly, a more capable, better behaved :,roup of students it w,nald be difficult to feed on this continent. Thirdly, the nee it: is re g ate about $75,000. The.

Foolish Advice Chosen: So Jeroboam and all the people came ” to Rehoboam the third day, as the king bade. The delay of three days was°a. good thing, if nnit- Rcho- boant had, made food use of it. Ile, liberationc and ctJn.ultation before open hostilities would settle': many die - mites : and save many sad divisions. Saying, Come to me again the third day, Rehoboam's procrastination of his decision' sea- caused not by wis- dom but by tyeaknees. In all cases of right and wrong, delay m•kcs it easier to do the wrong. And the king answered thepeop le P p roughly. Foolish and weak: people confound roughness with strength. And forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given hint. Part- ly because the advice was ltlistasteful,. partly because it was given by old men and hot by his companions and intimates. And spake to them after the coun- sel of the young ti -ten, Probably Re- hoboani prided himself on his inde- pendence of his subjects, He ;did not realize that• he was, slavishly and weakly copying his immature advis- ers, 'd ers. •Saying, my father made your yoke heavy. SoI,-,rnrni's enormous pub- lic works calledfor ]evils of forced labor such as the nation had never exlsesietaced. But I will add to your yokb. Symbolieally, make your yoke heavier; actually, add to your bur- dens which are carried by means of the yoke. My father chastised you with' whips. The whips in the hands of the t;eerseers in charge of bands of laborers, used to, spur them on in ittoil. B t I will chastise ort with he u s y scorpions. This wit, a proverbial ex }r �-ar n indii:t tilt .the rico t 'tet ,.tin t t r, cf f tr t.rc txa ti r, ,c Roman. tan. in later days invented a cruel instru- ment which they called a scorpion and used for beating, So the: king hearken ed not to the I people. Vox populi, vol Dei is a wise old proverb': "The voice of the people' is the voice of God." For it was a thing brought about of Jehovah. If that was" the case, if the division of the kingdom was certain to carie 1 about anyway, was Rehobaain to blame forhis share in bringing it about' That he might establish his word which Jehovah spake by Aid- jah the Sbilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nabat. The division of . the king dom had been foretold to Jeroboam, , i Kings It:29-3e, and also to Solomon Kings x Kings, rl.g-T 3, in each Lase the reason for the disaster being stat- ed as idolatry—,the � z penpte's and the king's. Resultslis of R elobo, am s i oiiy. And when all Israel saw that hat the king hearkened not unto Them. Ccrtn- parativelyfew, "only the leaders would bepresentwhen Rehoboam stated hi� S decision, but they would be intensely 1 disgusted and ,itadignant, and, leaving the conference, would spread the news with hot words wherever they „ t went. The people answered the "king. y The people spoke through their lead - ere, who, after addressing Relioboam, turned around and .shouted their or- ders to the •eliople. The affair moved seviftly anddecisively. Saying,Vuab portion have we itt David' That is, "What have eve to do with ])avid,? Hereafter we go different was from Y the hoarse of David and the tribe of Judah Neither ave' we inheritance its the son of Jesse. When "the son of Jesse" was alive, the igen of the tat r there r'talked �er i ked dif ereet- eere tribes tty ly. To your tents, 0 Israel. This is a proverbialexpression,o tri^inating1n the days when the tcople. limed in T 1 tent, and ltd. a nomadic life in the svildt.rness. Now see to' thine own house, David. The royal house and the tribe of Judah bad been served by the other tribes; now thee; might serve themselves. So Israel departed unto their tents. Thus, in the folly of a spoiled child, begain a schism that -lasted for many centuries: The breach was healed only by the cap- tivity of the entire nation, its inotu•n- ful exile to a distant land, its poverty and disgrace and almost complete ruin: But as for the children, of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Judah, Re ,hoboam reigned: over them. "Israel", a naive up to this time applied to the ' entire nationdt.scc s ' a ndattts of Jacob - Israel, was henceforfth assumed by northern t h .t ten tribes alone; though 1Judah really maintained the'legitirrrate royal house, tat,direct descent from David, and with it thepure roil 'gion: and the fine traditions which: insured thePerpetuation of the Southern Kingdom longafter , the g Northern Kingdom had fallen acrd its s clai;cf igen goneinto exile. Then n kingto R hoboam sent Atioratn, who was over the amen subject to task - work. Reboboani was so far gone in his insane pride that he chose as his ambassador to bring back the ten tribes the very worst �wer.t messengerlie 1 could have foetid, the ratan in charge of ' the forced labor on Solomon's t v of buildings which ch alae} so bitterly complained. And all Israel storied him 't0 death with stones. "He has added insult to injury" `cried the injury," , outraged Israelites, and swiftly meted out to Rehoboani's messenger the punish- ment of treason. And kin i h g e ohoanr xtaade speed to get him uphischar- ',lot, r to cha - lot, to flee to Jerusalem, Now he. t > foolish young man saw clearly his Y fn l ' in goingto Sc y g �, eelierTt in the firs" .l place and in giving free rein to his obstinatee ride. p . Only headlong and !ignominious flight cotild save his life. So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day . This verse indicates that First Kings was written before the return of the Jews from exile in Babylonia, an exile', which ob- literated the division between ;Israel and Judah. And it came to pass, when all Israel,' heard that Jeroboam was returned. The assembly at Shechem seems to have been dissolved and to ha\'e car- ried the news of Jerobaain's return and of the break with Rehoboatn to the farthest corner of the northern tribes, telling it to those that had not attended the Shechctn gathering. That they sent and called him unto the congregation.. This ,would , seem , to have been another assembly, -pi•gbab- ly also convened at Shechem, but with only the ten northern tribes present; and it would be a very full gathering, And made him king over all Tsreal. It 'was. -inevitable that Jeroboam Should be called to the throne of the new kfngdoin. There was none that followed the house of David; but the tribe of Judah only; Again ."little Benjarwn" is overlooked, batt it fs es- pressly mentioned in '-the next verse as sending a very large number of warriors to augment Rehoboanf's. army.
