THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. -Tuesday, April 4, A.D. 30. (lace. --In Jerusalem, probably M the temple. 41. "Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question, 42. say: ing, What think ye of the Christ? Whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David." By the word -Christ, our Lord meant the Messiah, for the Hebrew word Messiah was translated in the Greek language as Christos, both words meaning the 'anointed one.' That the Messiah is the son of David is clearly taught in Psalm 1.10, and in 2 Sam. '7, and is con- tinually referred to in the New Testament. The Son of David 43. "He saith unto them, How then doth David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying, 44. The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I put thine enemies underneath thy feet? 45. If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son? 46. And no one was able to answer him a word, neither durst any mann from that day forth ask hint any more questions." Then Christ asked them, if the Messiah was to be the son of David, how could the: account for the fact that in this very Messianic Psalm, David who wrote the Psalm, speak: of his son the Messiah as Lord. How could a pian have a son whom he referred to as divine? The son might call the father Lord as his znaster or superior, but how could the father, a king, speak of his eon in this way? David's Lord This question of Christ was a revealing question. Their con- ception of Messiah was a wrong conception. They came to hien about their politics, they expected a Messiah who would lead an army, and break the yoke and set them free; but he said, You. do not know your Messiah. You think of Him as coming in Da- vid's line, but He is more than David's Son, He is David's Lord. Exhorting the Multitude 1. "Then spake Jesus to the multitudes and to his disciples, 2. saying, The scribes and the Phari- sees sit on Moses' .seat: 3. all things therefore whatsoever they bid you, these do and observe: but do not ye after their works; for they say, and do not." Christ here is careful to distinguish be- tween the office of those false religious teachers and their actual practice. He recognizes that they are worthy of being heard, as fax as they upheld the Mosaic Law. They were said to 'sit in Moses seat'; that is, to be acting in his place and to proclaim his laws as teachers of the revealed will of God. In so far as they were true to such a sacred office they were to be obeyed. It was their prac- tices however, which were to be avoided, especially their failure to follow their own precepts. To Be Seen of Men 4, "Yea, they bind heavy bur- dens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on. men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with their finger. 5. But all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broad their nhylacteries, and enlarge the bor- ders of their garmeents, 6, and love the :thief place at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues." The heavy bu:tdens here referred to are the marneene, and often, ridiculous, interpret;inns of the law of .Moses, which the re. ligieti leaders insisted that men utast obey; elaborate laws con- cerning washing, the Sabbath, business rdlationships. Men could :not even . remember the different laws they enacted, much less cone hinually obey them. Phylactery ,:igriifies in classical Greek a guarded post, then a safegenee, finally an amulet, as guarding against evil. Christ, The Master 7. "And the salutations in the market places, and to be called of men, Rabbi. 8. But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your teacher, and all ye are brethren. 9, And &all no man your father on the earth: for one is your Father, even he who is in heaven. :10. Neither be ye called masters. for one is your master, even the Christ." What our Lord prohib- :the is desire for the distinction involved in being recognized as a religious teacher. Servants of Men 1L "But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12, And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself ehall be exalted."

Their writer all through their radio career is Don Quinn. Listen to McGee and Molly, Tues. day 9.30 p.m. -- CBC Network! * * The average radio listener is a sturdy fellow with red blood coursing through his veins, ana half-inch armor plate for epider- mis. He is either impervious 61 indifferent, and his nerves are made of spring steel. That is the considered opinion of Himan Brown, who directs the Blue Net- works shuddery Sunday night 8.30 "Inner Sanctum Mystery" Series. Right now, Himan's a be- widiered and disillusioned gentle- man. "We started out modestly on a small scale to test their (the lis- teners) mettle. We gave them vampires, makes, deathly nursery rhymes, supernatural demons, zombies and black magic, They loved it and asked for more. Not a sign of surrender -maybe they are a hit soared during the broad- casts, but the mail response shows they want 'em bigger and better -more macabre and more mac- abre -weirder and weirder! And, I think we've got the answer! We've arranged to have the Bogey Man of them all, Boris Karloff, do a number of guest shows, in the best mystery yarns we can lay our hands on. We kinda figure that the boys and girls who like their radio 'horror' in effective doses will lend an ear to his May 17th and June 7th ana 2lst broadcasts!"

Sunday '7.00 p.m.), and custodian of Benny's ancient Maxwell; got 1 his .first big break in radio through a routine audition. The call woe out for a Negro to play the part of a porter on a Chicago to Los Angeles train. A number of prospects were auditioned before Anderson, who had just finished the role of Noah, in the movie "Green Pastures," won the as-. signment. As he has since Often done, Eddie stole the show from Benny on that program Easter Sunday 1937. Benny and his writers decided "Rochester" was, too good to drop. So they kept him on the program by evolving the idea of an audacious valet. "Rochester" has been a fixture on the Jack Benny program since. He's done so well, he now has xis own valet! Some 1150 Listening Tips Interesting sidelight on radio broadcasting was afforded a num- ber of dealers and executives on Friday night, April 24th, when the "Bandwagon" show was done from the stage of the CKOC Radio Theatre. Joe Chaysdale, Howard Caine, Jean Gillard and all those associated with the 'show, including the assembled gather- ing, took part in the 'on the air' program. Incidentally, each Fri- day night's Bandwagon trips down Harmony Highways sparkle with novel program ideas, good music and good fun. The trine is 8,80 from 1150 on your radio dial.

NES tIow many different words does the average person user NDIYIDUA JtizeJ)!r I N Aid lb AUI�UI ; 7, - A Weekly Column About This and That in The Canadian ArmY Did you know that men faint at the sight of. blood, or at the thought of it, more easily than women? It's a fact. Perhaps not quite a tact from the strict angle of the clinical records of many cases that would accompany a medical statement, but -at least for the purpose of this essay -a fact! The statement comes from a faithful worker in the Ottawa Blood Donor Clinic of the. Red Cross. Five days a week at that establishment streams of men and women go to offer five -sevenths of a pint of blood to be made into plasma and shipped to Enland for Canadian soldiers and botttbed British civilians. For some reason or other - largely psychological in the opin- ion of some of the volunteer work- ers -some of the donors faint. It Can't be from loss of blood -many a soldier has lost more than that much blood and still had strength enough to "bawl out" the sweat- ing streteherbearers for clumsi- ness. It is hardly likely the rea- son is delicacy -for, in moat cases, the fainter is apt to be a big husky male, while a little half-pint of a woman is not bothered at all. At the Montreal clinic on one occasion six men were sitting in the rest room enjoying the hot, sweet tea or coffee that is given to each donor while he rests for a few minutes following his turn on the table, when one of them keeled over. He was followed in a matter of minutes by foul of the remaining five. What has all this to do with the Individual Citizen's Army? Quite a lot! For one thing -and I should make it clear that many more people give their blood without fainting than do faint -the giving of blood is •a definite and easy piece of soldiering that we can do in our spare time. For another, this gives one ex- ample xample of why it is necessary for us to go easy' on the sugar -there are many better uses to which it can be put than just sweetening beverages Two facts -that it is against the law to hoard sugar, and that the Red Cross Blood Donor Clinic can put sugar to good use -were brought home to Montrealers re- cently when more than a quarter of a ton of sugar was handed over to the Red Cross by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. It had been seized from a hoard- er who was fined $100 and cots for "withholding from supply." After the fine was paid there still remained the question of the sugar. Wlhile the fine had expiated the offence it was still not possible for the owner to keep the sugar. It is against the law to have more than two weeks' ration of sugar in your possession. Hence the windfall for the Blood Clinic, which now has a year's supply. And do you know what that year's supply will do? The clinic send to Toronto for processing 400 units of blood per week. That means that 400 blood donors get 400 sweetened bever- ages to help them recuperate and by simple multiplication it shows that the once -hoarded sugar will play its part in making possible the shipping of 20,000 units of blood plasma to where it is most needed. Not all of us are handy enough to a blood clinic to be able to offer our blood -neither is every soldier in the front line. In fact it takes quite a number of soldiers behind the line to keep one at the front. Of course in these days of mobile warfare it is sometimes hard to tell if the front line is in front, behind or at one side so every soldier, even if he belongs to what was a non-combatant service, is now trained to fight. That's where the Individual Citizen's Army conies in. We can all train -in fact it looks as if we shall have to. There'll be no more telephoning to the corner drug store for a packet of cigarettes or a bottle or two of "pop." Now we'll have to do without or put on a hat and walk down there for it. That's all to the good. flow long is it since you went for a walk with your wife, or you with your • husband? It used to be fun, remember? Now we're going to find out that it still is good fun and what is better by doing more walking we'll make ourselves fitter. There's no reason why only sol- diers should be trained to physi- cal .fitness. In feet the members of our airmy °need` it more than they do --we've got to be fit enough to do without things so they can have them. Wheat Acreage Cut In Western Canada Decrease of approximately 800,000 acres in Western Can- ada's wheat acreage from last year is estimated in a prelimin- ary survey by the agricultural de- partment of .the Canadian Pacific Railway made public in -the first of the railway's weekly crop re- ports. The report says Manitoba's acreage may be about 11 percent down, Saskatchewan's about three percent and Alberta's about two percent. Total acreage to -be .sown to wheat in the three western prov- inces is placed at 20,755,000. Vacation War Work. For Nazi Students German high school boys and girls will spend their summer vacations this year working in. munitions factories under a plan mobilizing all the Reich's labor resources, Berlin despatches to. the Basel National Zeitung say. Younger students are being mobilized for farm work, and schools in some sectors will. be closed immediately so, they may go into field camps, the despatches. declared. Within a few weeks, it was said, there will be scarcely a. German man or woman not en- gaged in some manner of wan work. The biggest gaps in the lobos front, however, will be filled by increasing use of war prisoner% and civilians imported front con- quered lands, the advices report- ed. It was expected that most of these would be employed in farm- ing, but the difficulties of trans-,,. portation were described as great because "the German railways have even more urgent tasks." Air Raid Wardens To Carry Lipstick Lipsticks -as possible iifesavers -found their way into 65,000 first aid belts being distributed to air raid wardens in Massa- chusetts. Officials said use of lipstick is the simplest means of writing on, a person's forehead identification, classification of in- juries and other information.
