Golden Text: "The soul that sinneth, it shall die. Ezekiel 18.4. The Lesson in its Setting Time—We do not know when the temptation of our first par- ents took place, except that it was near the very beginning of hu- man history. Man's First Temptation 1. (a) "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which Jehovah God had made. 1. (b) And he said unto the woman, 'Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of any tree of the garden?" It is Satan's de- sire always to ruin what God has done and now to keep God from redeeming man. It is his pur- pose, on this occasion, to make man as Satan is himself, that is, one who disobeys and rebels against God. He cannot expect our first parents to rebel against God without a process of weak- ening, eakening, leading up to such diso- bedience, Satan attempts, and successfully, to insinuate doubt in the mind of the woman re- garding the word of God. This is the way Satan has always at- tacked the heart of man, to get hien to doubt that God had spo- ken. Listening to the Serpent 2. "And the woman saith unto the serpent, Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat: 3. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the gar- den, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, lest ye die." What the, woman should have done, was immediately to denounce Satan for his subtle insinuation, and tell him that her trust was in God. Instead of that she began to ar- gue with him. Appealing to Pride 4. "And the serpent said unto the woman, 'Ye shall not surely die'." When a person believes sin will not be punished, then all dread of punishment is roe moved, and the greatest deter, rent from sin loses its restraining power. 5. "icor God doth know that in the day you eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as God, knowing .good and evil." Satan appeals to the woman by telling her that if she eats of this fruit, the knowledge she will thereby acquire will be of such greatness, and of such x nature, that she will become like God, This apeals to the woman's pride, This desire to be like Cod has always been a powerful factor in the history of fallen humanity. Choosing Satan 6. "And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he did eat" Was there anything in the fruit itself which els harmful? Prob- ably not. The harm did not conte from the fruit itself, but from disobeying God. Is such a simple thing as this to be called so great a sin as to be worthy of death? Disobedience is disobedience whe- ther it pertains to something small or great. Eve disobeyed God and obeyed Satan instead. She chose Satan in place of God and love for God was replaced by a love for evil. Consequences of Sin 7, "And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons. And they heard the voice of Jehovah God walking in the garden in the cool of the day; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah God amongst the trees of the garden." Why should man now flee from God? Because he had disobeyed God and felt the shame of his own re- helliousness and ingratitude. Blaming Others D. "And Jehovah God called un- to the man, and said unto hien, Where art thou? 10. And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I ant naked; and 1 hid myself. 11. And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked?? Hast thou eaten of the tree whereof I com- manded thee that thou shouldest not eat? 12. And the man said, The woman whom thou gaveat to be with me, she gave me of the tree and I did eat. 1S. And Jehovah God said unto the woman, What is this thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent be- guiled rte, and I did eat." Adanl not only blames the transgression on his wife, but really puts the blame on God, for he speaks of .Eve as the wot tan whom God hod given to hilts, The woman blam- ed the serpent, she also showing New Power to Move War Traffic HIRTY-ave fast and powerful locomotives of the latest type are rolling out of the shops to speed up war traffic over the Canadian National Railways. R. C. 'Vaughan (right), President of the National Sys- tem, accompanied by John Roberts, Chief of Motive Power and Car Equip- ment (left), and other officers, in- spected the first of these engines. The president was keenly interested in the cab interior which includes.new features designed by Mr. Roberts and members of the Motive Power staff. no inclination to acknowledge the guilt .or to ask forgiveness. 23. "Therefore Jehovah God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taen. 24. So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east end of the garden of Eden the cherubin, and the flame of a sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life." His access to the source of per- petual life is barred by a guard consisting of the cherubim and the flame of es sword. The flam- ing sword is the visible form of the sword of justice and the cher- ubims are the ministers of the divine presence and judgment— of his presence which was no$ entirely withdrawn from man; and of his judgment, by which he was excluded from the garden of delight, The Burnia Road was tenta- tively surveyed more than 100 years ago but was not opened un•. kI 1939. Mounties "Mutt" tut" Is Well -Trained Dog The telephone rang. Smug- gled goods? Yes, he would go right over and search. "Mutt," the dog of doubtful parentage, hooked out a flea from behind his ear and then literally slithered into the police car with his owner. Later the member in charge of the "C" Division detachment entered the suspect's house, Unknown to him, "Mutt" had ambled in, nipped another flea, sniffed for a cat, and then lain down under the kitchen stove. The peace officer did not say a word. The suspect piled smuggled goods in heaps be- fore him. An incredulous look spread over the policeman's face. "I give up, mister, I confess I smuggled all these. I won't deny it, beeause'I've read all about the Mounties' trained police dogs:" The officer turned his head, spotted the dog under the stove, and wondered how "Mutt" had got there!

I 1+1 Convoy System Reduces Losses Drop In Ship Siekings Along Atlantic Seaboard The U.S. Navy Wdisclosed last week that for the past month h. has been convoying merchant yes- sels along the Atlantic seaboard where .at least 150 United Nations ships have been blasted to the bottom by Axis underseas raiders. There has been an apreciable drop in ship sinkings in the area during recent weeks, a decrease believed due largely to escort vessels and the Navy's off -shore plane and blimp patrols. The Navy Department had no comment beyond its brief an- nouncement that "the Navy has been convoying merchant shipa through the lanes of the eastern sea frontier for approximately the past thirty days." "The frontier" covers the en- tire coastline from Florida to Maine. Of the 150 vessels sunk in these'waters, at least 134 were sent to the bottom before the convoy system was instituted. 18 vessels went down during June, 13 fewer than the 31 sunk in. May and 18 below April's bag of 39. In the first three months of the underseas warfare, another 62 ships went down. While the Atlantic sinkings are decreasing, there has been an ac- companying increase in submarine attacks in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. It is understood the convoy system will be extended to those areas soon. SC A total of 12 toes of salvage rubber has been collected and shipped by the Boy Scouts of South Porcupine, * * A permanent employee has been placed in charge of Aurora's sal- vage depot, as a result of h11e continued success of the collec- tions ollecttions made by the Scouts, the of- ficial salvage organization of the community. Out of the financial returns to date the boys have made donations of $25 each to the Red Cross, Salvation Army Red Shield Fund and the Baden-Pow- ell Chins Up Fund4 for British Scout war sufferers. A $50 Vic- tory bond also was purchased. * * * Delinquency among juveniles has shown a sharp increase, due to wartime conditions, according to Judge H. S. Mott of the To - Tonto Family Court, but the Boy Scout movement is providing an. effective means for combatting this. 'Scouting," said Judge Mott, "enables boys to plan and do things with other boys of .their owo age, and gives them a chance to share with others a training which tends to equip them for a happy and normal life." * * * A. 1200 acre wooded camp Site located near the Canadian border has been presented the Boy Scouts of the Adirondack region of New York. The donor was Charles E. Bedford of New York City. * * * A Cartip Call To Scouts A call to I3oy Scout leaders across the Dominion to overcome the wartime problems involved and secure a fortnights camping for their Scouts this summer has been issued by the Executive Board of the Buy Scouts Associa- tion. The object is to endure both the camp training that has proved so valuable, and the health bene- fit of changed surroundings and the full outdoor life, particularly for the younger Scouts. Older Scouts not otherwise employed will be woking on farms. For these are recommended camps in locations from which the boys can go to their farm work, thus com- bining farming and some Scout- ing. For the young Scouts, where transportation is a difficulty, near -home camps are recommend- ed. It may be possible to locate such camps on farms where the boys eau help with berry picking and other light farm work. Chair- men of Scout Group committees are railed upon to do everything possible to arrange camps and to secure the needed camp leaders. More than one-fifth of the human .race is Chinese.
