THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time,—The•Serron on the Mount
was delivered in the spring of
A.D. 27, The passages taken from
Luke's Gospel were uttered in the
early summer of A.D. 28. The in-
cident referred to in. the Book of
Acts occurred in A.D. 36, The
words from the twelfth chapter of
Mark were uttered on Tuesday of
Passion 'Week, April 4th, A.D. 30.
The Epistle of Paul to the Ro-
mans, and tiie First Epistle of
Peter, were written, approximately,
A.D. 60,
Place ,•--The Sermon on the
Mount was delivered on a moun-
tain in Palestine; probably in
Judaea. The event taken from
Mark's Gospel occurred in Jerusa-
lem. The incident from Acts oc-
ourred in Samaria, The Epistle to
the Romans was written from the
city of Corinth. We do not know
from what plaoe the Apostle Peter
wrote his first Epistle.
Preserving Society
18. "Ye are the salt of the earth:
but if the salt have lost its savor,
wherewith shall it be salted? it is
thenceforth good for nothing, but
to be cast out and trodden under
loot od men." Our Lord here is
opeaking not of men generally,
but strictly of Christian believers,
disciples of the Lord Jesus. The
definite implications of this verse
are that the world itself is cor-
rupt and corrupting, and than
Christians, as they live here among
men, are to exert an influence re-
tarding this corruption, as salt by
its distinctive chemical nature re-
tards and often prevents corrup-
tion taking place in meats, and
other forms of food to which salt
Is alpplicd.
Point Others •To God
14, "Ye are the light of the
world. A city set upon a hill eau -
not be hid, 15. Neither do men
light a lamp, and put it under the
bushel, but on the stand; and it
shineth unto all that are in the
house. 16. Even so let your light
shine before men; that they may
gee your good works, and glorify
your Father who is in heaven."
Here Christians are the light of
the world, the source of spiritual
light to It as the sun is of natural .
light.. They are tibe light by xueans
of which the world, no mass of
mankind, may see the things of
religion, xn•ay see the truth about.
God and His service.
The Christian's Obligation
13. •
"Arid they send unto him
a certain of the Pharisees and of the
lierodians, that they might catch
bum in talk. 14. And when .they
tl. were come,. the say unto liitn,
'reacher, weknow that •'thou art
Tette, and rarest not for any o.uo;
tilos regar<iest not the person
men, but of a truth teachest the
ay of God: is it lawful to give
tributo unto Caesar, or not? 15.
131101 we•give, or shall we not give?
134 he, knowing their hypocrisy,
aid auto them, Why make ye trial
f me? bring rue a denarins, that
may vee it, 16. And they brought
3}t. And he Stith unto them, 'Mose
this image and superscription?
And they said unto him, Caesar's.
17. And Jesus said unto them,
Render unto Caesar the things that
are Caesar's, and unto God. the
things that are God's. And they
marvelled greatly at him."
The ,Pharisees asked if they
should pay tribute to Caesar, by
which. they meant, shoul dthey, as
Jews, pay taxes to the Roman
Government, It was understood
among the Jews that to accept
the coinage of any king was to
acknowledge his supremacy --bar
aocepting the denarius therefore
as a current coin they were openly
declaring that Caesar was their
sovereign. Therefore our Lord
said that they were to render unto
Caesar the things that were Caes-
ar's, but He added the far deeper
words—and unta,>a God the things
that are God's, To Caesar you
owe the coin which you have ad-
mitted as the symbol of his author-
ity, but to God you owe yourselves.
Duty To Rulers
13. 'Be subject to every ord-
nance of man, for the Lord's sake:
whether to the king, as supreme;
14. Oh unto governors, as sent by
him for vengeance on evil -doer
and for praise to thein that do
well. 15.0 For ea is the will of
God, that by well -doing ye shall
put to silence the ignorance of
foolisl men.' While order is as
divine command, all special forms
of civil government are mere
means of carrying out God's de-
signs for the 'welfare of society.
'Phe Christians were accused of
being evil -doers. They were to
be conspicuous for well -doing.
Bondservants of God
16. "As free, and not using your
freedom for a cloak of wickedness,
but as bondservants of God." They
must not attempt to hide wicked-
ness by boasting of their freedom
but they must be • as God's serv-
ant, The word "servant in refer-
ence to Christians implies neitiher
degradation nor injustice but ex-
presses chiefly • the rendering oi"
absolute service.
Honor All Men
17. "Honor all men. Love the
brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the
King." Christ honored all men, not
simply for what they were in them-
selves, He honored them all for
what they were to God. The spe-
cial love of the brethren does not
shut out other forms and degrees
of love. Our Lord's words should
be considered in all their full
force of obligation. Men are to
fear God with the holy reverential
awe of sons. They are not to fear
reran more ahan God, however
great may be the authority with
which he is invested.
THE BOOK SHELF
LITTLE MAN
By. G. Herbert Sallans
Little Man is an honest and un-
flinching account of four amazing
decades in the growth of a nation.
The scenes move swiftly across
Canada and back, to Britain and
France and home again. The
events are vivid and the charac-
ters slendidly alive, for the author
describes what lie has seen and
known and felt.
Little Man is a story that
awakens faith in our country and
stimulates pride in our traditions
and confidence in our destiny. At
the same time it never loses sight
of man himself.. Without mawkish
sentimentality the author cham-
pions the little man who never
knows what it is to win, but who
will never admit defeat, who fills
the armies of the world because
there are so many of him, and
who can never be conquered be-
cause there are too many of him.

How To Get Rid
Of Wolf Menace
Once upon a time the editor of
The Star got himself a wolf coat
which demonstrated that wolf
skins can be converted into outer
garments which are both hand-
some and useful in cold weather.
Now wolf pelts on which the
Ontario Government pays boun-
ties, including a substantial num-
ber from Algoma District, are be-
ing used to manufacture vests
which will do something to make
the life of the sailors of the Can-
adian navy on the Atlantic and
Pacific Oceans a bit more com-
fortable during the winter months.
That means that the wolf pelts
are doing a worthwhile job—and
after all there is nothing more
laudable than converting a nui-
sance to some useful purpose.
Running free in the bush, the
Algoma wolf, or for that matter
any other Ontario wolf, is a de-
structive creature. He won't at-
tack man, ne the fact that the
$100 reward offered by The Star
17 years ago to anyone who could
prove that he had been attacked
by a wolf in its natural state in
Algoma has never been success-
fully claimed, has amply shown.
But so far as farm animals, deer
and even moose are concerned,
the wolf does a great deal of
damage. That is why the Ontario
Government offers a bounty of
$25 on wolves. That is why the
Algoma 'Wolf Club, quite apart
from the fact that its members
enjoy the chase, has from time
to time set itself the task of clear-
ing out the wolves from areas
where the fanners have been suf-
fering from the animals depreda-
tions.
e * 5
These are only palliatives, how-
ever. But if, inspired by the edi-
tor's fur coat and by the use of
wolf pelts to snake vests for the
sailors, it should become recog.
nized that wolfskins have a real
conunercial value, the remedy
might be found. For if a first
class market for wolfsxins could
be built up, wolves night soon
become even scarcer than beaver
threatened to be a few years ago.
But in that case someone would
come along and want a close sea-
son on wolves in order to keep
them from extinction -- and then
where would the farmer's live
stock coins in?
SCOUTING ®9

Nearly everyone knows Hy
Moyer, the originator of the illus,•
trated cartoons, "Nothing but the
Truth." Hy Moyer is now being
teamed with Joe Carr in a. series
of programmes scheduled for
10,30 Saturday night, or Imme-
diately following the end of the
hockey broadcast. Known as the
"Cartoon of the Air" the Moyer -
Carr combination presents some
very original oddities in the news.
It's one of those programmes quite
different from the ordinary run
of entertainment. CFRB, Toronto
is the station.
During the past several weeks
the Thursday evening 9 to 9.80
programme "Ontario Caravan"
broadcast over CFRB, Toronto
has originated in numerous points
around the Province, including
Orillia, Meaford, Stratford, Whit-
by, Simeoe, Newmarket, Brant-
ford and Guelph. Supported by
Roy Locksley's 14 piece orchestra,
and the humor of the Woodhouse -
Hawkins` comedy team, the pro.
gramme features local singers and
entertainers who have been chosen
by audition to represent the best
talent in their respective neigh-
bourhoods. The grand prize is a
three months' professional eon -
tract over CFRB, the winner to be
chosen from the first ten broad-
casts of the series. It is now an-
nounced that the "Ontario Cara-
van" will remain at home in To-
ronto on Christmas Eve and New
Years Eve, when the feature will
originate from the Toronto studios
of CFRB. On the New Years
Eve progranune, the winner of the
series will be announced.

a lover of the best in music and
read this paragraph in time to
tune in the 740 kilocycle wave

be well rewarded. If not learn-
ing of the broadcast early enough,
you will be sorry to have missed
it. Kathleen Parlow is scheduled
to present a Scottish Fantasy for

Not all radio characters live
thirteen years or more over the
air waves. Not all radio charas-
tors deserve to. The familiar
"Goldbergs" of the Columbia,
Broadcasting System and CFRB,
Toronto seem destined, however,
to go on a long time yet. For
even though the "Goldbergs"
have just started their fourteenth
year on the air, they have lost
none of their original xnagetism.
There have been few changes in
the cast since 1929. Jake or
"Papa" Goldbe:•g is still played
by James Waters, famed previ-
ously as the first half of the well
known "Potash and Perlmutter."
Daughter "Rosey" is still in the
hands of Rosalyn Silber, who was
only ten when she first appeared
in the part, Mrs. Gertrude Berg,
the originator of the principal
fe.einine role, and of the incid-
ents themselves, still continues to
inspire the other members of the
cast,
