Other people look to you for an example—if you do not speak well of the corrimtmity, if you do not do something for the com- munity, others will do likewise, No city, town, village, or hamlet can expect to become a bet- • ter, more interesting, more attractive place. in which to live, work, play and prosper unless everybody does a 1itle something. It isn't - necessary to spend days ,or weeks on a drive of some kind; you don't ha' e to get out and make a show of yourself; nor is it neces- sary Inc you to be one of the big toads in the puddle, to be able to do something. ' • And don't think when you do do anything for the benefit of • others, that you are a martyr to the cause; nor that you are donat- ing. Get it out ,of your head that you are doing something charit- able every time you go a little but of yottr way to perform a little service or dig down in your pocicet for a few dollars to make possible something the other fellow will get sante good out of. :You can't make ntoney unless the other fellow doeS.

Time,---Babyion captured, B,C. 539. Place, --Babylon, the chief .capital of the Babylonian Empire: DANIEL'S BOLD REBUKE, "Then Daniel answered and said before the king."—"Before interpret- ing the writing Daniel reads the king a lesson. Nebuchadnezzar's pride, combined with his refusal to recog- nize the sovereignty of the true God, had brought upon him a bitter humil- iation: Belshazzar has exhibited the same fault yet more conspicyously, and the present sign has been sent in order to warn dim of the impending punishment." As everywhere in his life, so in :this event Daniel's courage stands out conspicuously. "Let thy gifts be to thyself." --That is, "Keep your gifts"7--a most unusual refusal in the Orient—or anywhere else, for that matter! "And give thy rewards to another."—"Nebuchadnezzar was a prince whose character commanded respect; from him Daniel could and did receive 'rewards'; Belshazzar was not." "Nevertheless 1 willread the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation."— During the reign of Belshazzar Dan- iel had lee.rned the future through some wonderful visions, and he was sure that these would furnish the clue to the inscription on the wall. • "0 thou king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, ani majesty."—The greater a man is, the more clearly he sees the great- ness of brod, and knows that his own greatness is all the gift of his Cre- ator'. "Self-made men" who really believe that they are self-made are uniformly ignorant, conceited, and foolish. "And because of the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, temple, actually drinking wine from them in honor of his cruel and beast- ly heathen gods, "And the God in whose hand thy breath is."—The God who •can give life or death at his will," "And whose:. are all thy ways.,"—For fehovah controls all destinies, of the mightiest monarch and the humblest peasant. "Hast thou not glorified."— Oe the contrary, Belshazzar had in- sulted and dishonored Jehovah, "Then was the part of the 'hand seat from before him, and this writing was inscribed."—"The angel was sent' with the e.ommission. from • God to write this writing; literally to engrave it as in a book with indelible writing." THE WRITING INTERPRETED. • "And this is the writing, that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEICEL, UPHARSIN." "This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and brought it to an end." "Mina," the weight, is nearly the same as the Aramaic word for "numbered," "finished," and to Dan- iel's quick mind the interpretation was easy.' "TEKEL; thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting."— The Aramaic word for shekel, is al- most exactly the same as the word for "weighed." "PERES; thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians." and languages trembled and feared before him, etc."—It is the picture of an absolute monarch, accountable for his acts to no .one ,but himself; a ruler whom the happy citizens of modern democracies find it hardto imagine. "But when his heart was lifted up." —Moses bade his people beware when they became rich and prosperous and powerful, lest their heart be lifted up and they forget Jehovah. We all need this admonition. "And his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proud- ly."—A "hardened" heart is fixed in stubbornness, as was Pharaoh's when he refused to let the Israelites go out of slavery. "He was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him."—"They" may refer to the high officers of the realm who were compelled, during Nebuchadnez, zar's insanity, to appoint a regent; though of course it was God who de- posed Nebuchadnezzar in the first place. "And he was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts', end his dwelling was with the wild asses,"—The insanity with which the proud king was punished, imagining' himself to be a wild beast, and acting like one, is described in Dan. 4, and was studied in our last lesson. "He was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the. dew of heaven,"—He insisted on liv- ing outdoors, unclothed, munching grass • like an tax. "Until he knew that the mist High God ruleth in the kingdom of men, and that he sett:WI up over it whomsoever he will." 'The story of the stricken despot of mighty Babylon is illustrated again and again by what the late Bishop Thirwall called the 'irony of history' —the cases in which men seem to have been elevated to the very sum - Mit of power only to heighten • the dreaded precipice over which they immediately fall.' "And thou his son, 0 Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though thou knewest this" --The prince had probably said to himself, "That was a good lesson for Nebuchadnez- zar, he deserved it." and had never once thought to apply it to himself, Thus many a, ,sermon which God in- tended for us is flung off from our conscience; "Just the kind of sermon that So-and-so ought to hear," we say; "Too bad he wasn't at church," "I3ttt bast lifted up thyself against the Lord of Heaven, otc,"—Especially had Belshazzar offended Jehovah by the profane use ter which he had put 11911111i101110M1111$01101111111111MWWW140 OEM11111111 kk FF the sacred veseele freal Seleellen'S IHere and Therel •••••••••••••••••••••A (329), New style bucket seats for firs class coaches on Canadian Pacific day fast trains have been intro- duced on regular trains of the company an are moving very popular.

Mother and daughter are doing well. • • • Sixth annual trail ride in the Canadian Rockies will start from Banff August 1, and end a few days later at Castle Mountain Bun- galow Camp. • Seven glacier -fed lakes are on the route which will form half of the long -desired High Line trail from Banff to Lake Louise. The second half will also skirt several glacial lakes. About August 8 the long distance trail ride from Lake Louise to the Col- umbia icefield will make a start. This iceffeld covers the largest and most spectacular body of ice left on. the North American sentiment sur- rounded by peaks as high as 12,000 feet. The second trail ride will take nearly three weeks. The only golf trophy offered on the continent of .America, by His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales Cup, presented to the Banff Spring Golf Club for annual com- petition by bona fide amateurs on the course there, will be among the outstanding prizes of golfdom when members of the "Canadian. Golfer" tour special train which is crossing Canada from Toronto to Victoria and back this summer, arrive at Banff early in September, —"Persia 'half -m, nas,, or Peres (peras), 'a half-rn'na,' points allu- sively to a double interpretation: The ! kpianrgas)d(7,1 is divided (peris), and given the to Mede and •Ptn ersians' (Araaici "Scotland and Glasgow are proud of Canada for the part shels play— ing in trans-Atlantic shipping," said T. L. Duff, vrell-known ship- owner and broker, when interview- ed at Banff recently. "The build- ing of a ship directly employ's about 5,000 craftsmen on the Clyde," he added, "and the supplying of the materials and fittings required in construction indirectly benefit in- dustries throughout Scotland." Mr. Duff said that Scots felt that the Canadian Pacific whose recent ship orders had done so much for Scot- tish industry, was as much Scotth as Canadian, the foutiders having been of Scottish descent and so many of the ships of Scottish con- struction.

It was also announced recently that Westminster Hospital could now place £20,000 worth of radium at the disposal of its patients. How much radium will £50,000 buy? The Australian Government recently bought ten grammes -of ra- dium to start a radium service in the various states of the Commonwealth_ These ten grammes are worth £100,- 000, and half fill a teaspoon. So a50,000 will purchase a quarter of a teaspoonful of radium. Most of Europe's supply of radiun comes from eoachinasthal, a tiny vil- lage among the mountains of Czecboslovakia.
