SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR JUNE xst. 1924 __ Lesson Title -The Babylonian ;Ex- ile of Judah. ' Lesson Passage -2 Chron. 36:r1.'21 Golden Text—Prov. I old 4 34• Babylonia, also called the land of Chaldaea, was a province of Middle Asia, bounded on the north by Meso- potamia, on the east by the Tigris, on the 'south by the Persian Gulf and on the west by the Arabian . Desert. It was founded by Nimrod, the great grandson of Noali. At the time of today's lesson the kingdom had be- come one of the three great empires of the^ East. Its king, Nebuchadnez- zar, was its most successful monarch, It was he who made Babylon such a large • and magnificent city. Its walls, its canals its palace with its hanging gardens considered to be one of the wonders of. the world were all. attributed to • his genius and passion for building. In the Scriptures Baby- lon is abylon•is spoken of as "the glory of kingdoms, the lady of kingdoms the beauty of the Chaldee .excellency," All this indicates the power of the enemy against which the people of Judah had to contend and into whose hands they eventually fell, and by whom. Jerusalem was utterly destroy- ed. There were several invasions and upon one of these the vessels of the house of the Lord were, carried off and put in the idol -temple at Ba- bylon. Many people, among. them such choice young men as Daniel and his three companions; were made cap- tives and the whole country laid un- der tribute. For three years King Mr. and Mrs. George Naylor and Gordon spent Saturday with her sis- ter, Mrs, John Mills of Auburn..

WORLD MISSIONS Moharhmedan intolerance ;Chat there are many;lvfosleins who would readily accept Christianity if religious liberty were granted them is positively known, They are only prevented'. from an.. open profession by the :,certain Persecution which would follow; Mohammedan fanati eisni is so desperate that men will compass the death of their own bro- thers, rather than see them become Christians. What Wright not be ex- pected if this • superior people were delivered from the thraldom of a mere form of religion andled into the living faith and •the glorious liberty of the pure gospel?ela TWENTY YEARS AGO A meeting of • the merchants, of Wingham, 41 be held in the Coun- cil Chamber on Monday evening next i.o consider the advisibility of forming a Merchants Association, Mr, .Jas. Broadway last week sold his hotel property and business to Mr. Thos. Hill of Londesboro. Mr. Broadway iias been in the business here for three years. He has not yet decided on his plans for the future Mr. Hill has had several years experi- ence in the hotel business and recent- ,ly sold his property at Londesboro to Mr. R. D, Bruce, of Belgrave. The local rent of the Knights of the Maccabees and visiting brethren from '1' sons n 'T e d W n ilial Brussels, switer a Teeswater Corners, to the number of fifty, or more, attended divine service in the Baptist Church on Sunday morning last, when the pastor, Rev, J, N. Mc- Lean, B. A. delivered a very appro- priate and practical discourse. The speaker gave a concise account of the founding of the order, and dealt mil the principles for which the members were banded together. The duty of protecting the home and the necess- ity of making preparation for the life beyond were impressed -upon those present,: Mr. Frank Hill rendered a solo "Rock of Ages" in good voice. In another column will be found an ,advt. asking for tenders for the new post office building in Wingham. The plans and specifications are now in Mr. Wm, Nicholson's. From the plans we would judge that Wingham is going- to Have a very fine building and one thatwill be in keeping with our progressive town. The building will be placed in the centre.of the lot purchased for that purpose, and on the first floor will be the post office and customs - office, and the second and third floors will be the living rooms for the Postmaster. The work of building will be commenced as soon as the• contract is award. We under- stand that two or three Winghan'tites will tender. The enquiry from Mr. R. Clegg, of Walker & Clegg at Monday night's meeting of the Town Council re the supplying of the electric" power for motors brought up by a matter that should be looked into by our town fathers. Messrs. Walker & Clegg would use an average of so horse power per day, and no, doubt many other pjaees=an town would use two hoot' power and upwards. In same towns the Electric Light Companies have so arranged their plants that one dynamo would run during the day time to furinsh the required power for parties using electric motors, and no doubt the same order of things could be arranged in the. Wingham power house, The fuel question is now one of great importance and no doubt a large number now using steam power would use the . electric power if it could be had. We hope this matter will be taken up at once. Three elec- tric motors are now in use in Wing - ham and they are giving splendid :sat isfaction, but having only; ;31ight pow- 'er, makes thein .use yeryinconvenient-. ent, The first home game of baseball for the season will be played on the Town Park on . Friday afternoon of this week, The old. rival's, Cargill and Wingham, will' face each other, and this in itself should be a. guarantee of a good game, The first home game of lacrosse this season was played on the park on Friday evening last, Listowel be- ing the visiting team. The players lined up about 7 o'clock before Re- feree W. Allin of Lucknow. The Wingham Court bf Revision held its meeting on Wednesday even- ing of last week, with Messrs. Wm. Holmes, W. J. Greer, Thos. .Arm- strong and D. 13e11, members of the Board present. Mr. Peter McLaren and Mrs, McInnes complained that their residential property, was assess- ed too high, Both appeals were dis- missed, Messrs. John Wilson and David Robertson . complained that their property on Josephine street was assessed too high but 'both appeals were dismissed by the Court, Jehoiakim paid this •tribute;' ;but he Seized the opportunity to thro v' off the Chaldaean yoke when Neb tchact ' nezzar •was engaged in war with the king. of Egypt. Jeremiah, the pro- phet, warned him against this step, but in vain. After a time the land was again invaded, and Jerusalem had to surrender and the king was slain,' For a few months his son reigned as vassal but lie was carried off to Babylonand his brother, Zede- kiali, appointed king over Judah and. Jerusalem. Verses .=r-r6—King Zedekiali As a vassal of the king of Babylon, he had to take an oath of allegiance to him, but at the same time he watched for a chance to free his country from the foreign yoke. Like so many of his predecessors, his heart was not right with God so .he gave heed to false prophets and turn- ed a deaf ear' to the warnings- of°Jere miah, who faithfully .delivered the word of the Lo.rd,,though mockedand despised and imprisoned for so doing. Then it was that the anger of the Lord burst forth upon this wicked king and his councillors who by their folly brought the kingdom to the brink of ruin. Verses 17-2I—The Final Invasion Instead of looking to Jehovah for help when the Chaldaean came into the land and laid seige to Jerusalem Zedekiali sought help from the king of Egypt. The siege was begun on the tenth day of the tenth month in the ninth year and a half; but when famine prevailed in, the city and there was notybread for the people of the land, the city fell and+the king and his army fled by night; but were over- taken on the road to Jericho. The king's sons were slain before his eyes, and then he himself was depriv- ed of his sight and .sent in chains to Babylon, where, he died in .prison. Jerusalem" was coinpletely destroyed at the time. The castle of David, the temple of Solomon and the entire city lay in ruins and, to all appearances, there was an end of the people as well as of the holy city. Thus was the word of the Lord as spoken. by Jere- tniah fulfilled: Thus too was fulfilled the prophesy by Moses that Jerusa- lem would be smitten by calamity if the people would not keep the com- mandments of the Lord but broke his covenant (Lev, 26). But God, with whom a thousand years are as one, day, gave this afflicted people a vision of h.ope, The same prophets who foretold the destruction of Jerttsaleln predictedtheir return front .captivity irda 1.
