Ephe- sians 4:32. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Mime. - According to most chronologists, Jacob went down with his family into Egypt 1716 B.C. Jacob died 1698 B.C. Joseph died 1643 B.C. Place. - Joseph's residence in Egypt was at Zan, the capital of the kingdom at that time, lo- cated in the eastern part of the Nile delta. Goshen was in the eastean part of Egypt, north of the southern extremity of the delta. Hebron was two hundred miles northeast of Zoan. Joseph Reveals Himself 1. "Then Joseph could not re- frain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren." Delicacy for- bids the presence of strangers at this unrestrained outburst of ten- der emotion among the brothers. Besides, the workings of consci- ence, bringing up the recollections of the past, and the errors are not to be unveiled to the public eye. 2. "And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard. 3. And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am. Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brut sen could not answer him; for they were troub- led at his presence. 4. And Jos- eph said unto his brethren, Colne near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt." Joseph had controlled his feeling in many a trying situation but now he 'wept aloud.' It is his love for his breth- ren making its way through all his ability to do without them that breaks him down before thele, a man conquered by his own love, and unable to control it h compels him to make him - sell known, and to possess him- seli of its objects, those uncon- scioes brethren. Living Near To God 5. "And now be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life. 6. For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and there are yet five years, in which there shall be neither plowing nor harvest. 7. And Gocl sent me be- fore you to preserve you a rem- nant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance. 8. So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God: and he hath made nue a father to Phar- aoh, end lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt." A tragedy in the lives of many who rise from obscurity to places of great power, infli:- endo, and wealth, or fame, is that they forget God. They neglect their own prayer life. With in- creasing- frequency, they are ab- sent from divine worship on the Lord's day, and their language becomes more and more the lang- uage of the world, with words of praise and thanksgiving and sup- plication to God less and less manifest. Fortunately this had not happened to Joseph. In the very height of. his power, he bears testimony in all of his utterances to the goodness and power and sovereignty of God. Notice care- fully that it is Joseph who hail suffered and had for years been obedient to God, who recognized the hand of God in all that had taken place - it was not these brothers, whose lives were eel - loused by brutality and heartless- ness, It is the one who lives near to God who recognizes the over - rulings of God. Thoughts Of His Father 9. "Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not; 10. and thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast: 11. and there will I nourish thee; for there ars yet five years of famine; lest thou come to poverty, thou, and thy household and all that thou hast. 12. And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you. 13. And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall hast and bring down my father hither." Joseph's first thought after tide precious reconciliation had been accomplished, was of his father, He knew it was in the program of God, not that he, Joseph, should at this time go back to Canaan, but that his father, with his great family, should come down to him, He also knew, undoubtedly having made such an arrangement with Pharaoh, that Jacob's family should, in this change of rest- dente, abide in the land of Goshen, where they would find abundant provision for all of their needs. The Cup of Forgiveness 14, "And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck, 15. And he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them: and after that his brethren talked with him." More than natural sweetness and placability must have gone to the making of such a temper of forgiveness. Ile must have been living near the Fountain of all mercy to have had so full a cup of it to offer. Joy In Helping Others 11. "And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded. 12. And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread, according to their families." The land of Rameses in this verse is almost always taken as another name for the land of Goshen. What a con- trast between Joseph's treatment of his brethren, and their treat- ment of him years before! They had thrown him' into a pit, ex- pecting nothing less than death to follow: he was rescuing them from death by famine and making pos- sible their very existence. It would seem that Joseph, noble ok character, servant of God, inde- fatigable in work, high in favor, found his greatest joy in doing something for others. This should be the mark of every true be- liever, as It was a great charac- teristic of our Lord, Who went about doing good. Tires Treated To Make Them Last The theory that "we might as well use our tires; they'll rot any- way," is rebutted by tire makers. Tires bought in the last few years are treated with an anti- oxident that will preserve them for five or six years with only 10 to 15 per cent deterioration. Ten years ago they would have dried up and cracked. I THIS CURIOUS WORLD By William I Ferguson IS A P/N R.741aS IT -E ON AN IT GR()\C ON THE WHITE GRUB OF 11 -IE -14NOc"•1=RL BE -TLE.

SC UTIIit 1 I e The war has brought about se big demand in England for horse chestnuts, more commonly known as "Conkers" to boys over there. About 1,000 tons are required for medicinal purposes, and the Min- istry of Supply has sought the assistance of Great Britain's Boy Scouts in the drive. In addition to chestnuts the boys are collect- ing for the war effort nettles, foxglove and raspberry leaves, sphagnum moss, meadow saffron, and 1,500 tons of rose hips. These have been major projects at many British Boy Scout camps this past, summer. * * "I have already heard of the excellent work done by the Malta Boy Scouts, and they have been most helpful to me lately" Gen- eral Lord Gort, Commander of the Malta garrison, wrote the Chief Scout, Lord Somers, in ac- cepting the office of Patron and Chief Scout for the island of Malta. The value of Boy Scout train- ing is emphasized in statements by two prominent men in recent weeks. Postmaster General Frank C. Walker of the United States said: "I cannot commend too highly the outstanding accomplish- ments that have been attained by the Boy Scouts in the past 32 years. The Boy Scouts of Ameri- ca might well be termed the most potent instrumentalities of good citizenship in America." The Mayor of Richmond, England, had this to say: "If every boy and girl would join the Boy Scouts or Girl Guides when young, there would not be so many cases of young people coming before the magistrates." With the opening of fall activi- ties, Canadian Boy Scouts are planning to specialize in activities to fit then for "Commando" work, should the war continue until they are old enough to enlist. At a recent Commando course for Scouts at the Montreal District Camp at Tamaraeouta, special instruction was given in these arts, and it is interesting to note that all the instruction came from Lord Baden-Powbll's original book, "Scouting for Boys," the training proving applicable to present Commando training. The Boy Scout Founder was of course one •of the first "Commando" leaders in the Boer War, although the term "Commando" was used in that war, not by the British, but by the Boers.

London Buses To Have Daily Rest Some buses in London will soon be having a mid-day rest in order to save fuel and petrol. The London Transport Board, has not finally picked on park - Mg places, but with the decreased. traffic since July 1, when ail pleasure motoring was stopped, there should be no difficulty. The buses will be parked from 9 to 4 o'clock and the change is esti- mated to save two million traffic miles a year, as well as petrol and. tires.
