Psalm 92:4. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time -Tine 'first appearance to the assembled disciples was on gaster night, April 9, A.D. 30, The second appearance was the follow- ing first clay of the week, April 16. The appearance to the disciples at the Sea of Galilee was sometime later .in the month of April. Place—The two appearances to the assembled disciples were in en upper room in Jerusalem, pos- sibly time room in which the Lord's Supper was instituted .The ap- pearance ciples ged 1i fishing t was,o e f scow se, eons the Sea of Galilee in Northern Pales- tine. Christ Appears "When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were ,shat where the ,cliseiples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith unto thein, "Peace be unto you." When our Lord appeared with His "Peace be unto you," He restored peace, because He restored the sense of pardon for past sin and of reconciliation with God, With- out this there can be no true peace for the soul of man. WM THEIR HOME • "Cracker Barrel" Farmers Warned Grandpa's Methods Not Good Enough, .For Present 'Time Professor G. 1. Christie of tam Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, was very outspoken the other evening to the members of the Rural Municipalities eonven- tion in Toronto, when he told farmers to "get off the cracker barrels et the village store," and said. that grandfather's methds of farming are not good enough for 1943 production. He particularly addressed his remarks to hog rais- ers, clalrylnen and potato growers, and told them to avoid these "lengthy, worthless chats they were used to in peacetime." Al- though Professor Christie men- tioned three classes of farmers, his remarks no doubt are capable of general application. He par- ticularly cited loss of young pigs, which are so much needed today, through inefficiency, says The St. Thomas Times -Journal. Peace Be Unto You "''And when he had said this, he showed unto them his hands and his side. The disciples there- fore were glad, when they saw the - Lord." Christ showed them His hands and side to conviuee thele He .was the very same person who had been crucified, hav- ing the same body; as the words just uttered would assure them, His heart was still the same to them. "Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace be unto you: as the rather hath sent me, even so send I you. And when lie had said this, he breathed ,on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Spirit: whose soever sins ye for- give, they are 'forgiVell unto thele; whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained." Breathing is the most manifest token of life; so • that in breathing •on the disciples our Lord was giving them to share His own life -the. life of God. He r,Yhs 'so l5osseeeed• with. time .Spirit that the very breath of His body was spiritual — communicating divine life. , Thomas Voices His Doubts "But Thomas, one of the twelve, galled Didymus, was not with thein when Jesus came. The• other dis- ciples therefore saith unto him, We have seen the Lord. But uthhe said unto these,. all see in his hands the print of the• nails, and put ley finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not be- e." 'Why Thomas was not with the disciples we do not k11aw but he was of a morose disposition And probably wanted to be alone with his grief. It ,should be care- fully noted that the disciples slid not part from Thomas—they 'were gracious and tender to him, tell- ing hiin what they had seen and heard. Thomas wanted to behoof eve but he needed overwhelming p of the reality of Christ's resurrec- tion. Thomas Believes "And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Tomas •was with them. Jesu�n�ostood, 'the' doors being shut, In the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. 27. Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and see ley hands; and reach .hither thy hand, and put it into my side." The narrative implies that our Lord supernaturally knew not only of the doubt in Thomas' heart, but the woreis which he had previously spoken to the dis- ciples in demanding physical proof of Christ's reeurre0ti011. "A11�Cl be not faithless, but believing, stomas answered and saidunto him, My Lord and m y Thomas recognized but he knew also that his Lord was more than man. The discipline of self-ques- tioning, followed by the revelation of tender compassion and divine knowledge, enabled T1lomus i0 rise to the loftiest view of the Lord given in the Gospels. Faith In the Unseen "Jesus saith unto then, Because thou hast seen me, limou•-hest be- lieved: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed." Thomas himself ought to have be- lieved in the testimony of the rest, confirmed by all 11e had known and experienced of Christ in past days. No lean is without intelli- gent grounds for his belief, Faith 15 the opposite of sight because it a.:serts what is not seen; the opposite of reason in this sense, that it compels belief in an object Which reason alone cannot appre- hend. But faith in the unseen has Its own proofs which satiefy- the believing iniad and heart that there is an trnseon and eternal. ,wo grieving women look overthe ruins son a Berber 31. e in The Casablanca after a raid by G native houses are 1. lig attack tools a heavy toll of lives because ht Construction. Purpose of John's Gospel "Many other signs therefore did Jesus in the presence of the dis- ciples, which are not , written in this book: but these are written, that ye may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye may have life in. his name." It was not John's purpose to write a complete "Life of Christ"; it was not his purpose to write a "Life" at all. Rather he would narrate just those facts respect- ing espect ing Jesus which would produce a saving faith in Him as the Mes- siah and the Son of God.

There are many farmers, how- ever, chiefly those who through no fault of their own, probably lacking the means or the time, are prone to regard the scientific farmer with a certain degree of contempt. In fact, they look down upon these "white collar" farm- ers, as they call them, and regard them as "arm chair" men Who don't like getting their hands dirty. They think there is no school like experience; but the trouble is they simply follow the methods grandpa did when he cleared the ground, except to add some machinery to lighten the load. ,BY If you enjoy a novelty pro-, r 000 during the e ll.adiesy ADI0 11E1'0RT X FROST amu something a little different from the ordinary run of radio presentations, tune in Ross 1Mi11- ard's new "Hobby Show," heard every Thursday evening, 10 o'clock over C.F.R,B., Toronto.' 1 ' has a distinctly original flavor. Recently it has featured an as- sortment of the old-fashioned musical boxes which were the vogue in grandmother's day.

From time time to time you hear many people arguing that the most popular radio programs heard over Canadian stations originate from one or other of the big networks of the United States. There's p1.enty of evidence, however, to show that many Canadian pro- grams have what it takes to make country -wide Canadian app al. "Treasure Trail" is an example. Believe it or not, 13 million let- ters have been written to "Treas- ure Trail" in the four years and nine months it has been on the air, I£ you still question whether Canadians listen to p g1 nte originating from within the Do- minion and are still willing to write letters ask the Postmaster General of Canada — it is esti- mated that one Canadian radio program post ne officei<depa department of ght a revenue to the l * * * Farming is a highly scientific industry. That fact does not seem to enter the minds of some farm- ers. Soil and the raising of crops, a thorough understanding of live- stock of all kinds, of dairy work, of handling machinery, of storing and feednig, of knowing what to do at the right time and how, and many other things are all subjects in which the producers ought to know as much as they can, in the light of modern experiment and research. To become a skilled craftsman, a boy has to spend several years with experienced, trained men bo - :;fore: he can be called competent and get good wages. But any' Irian can get a piece of land, shove seeds in the ground and buy some horses, cattle and pigs and call himself a farmer. And when his stuff does not bring the prices he thinks it should, he blames the goveranient. THE BOOK SHELF 15 nes POP—An Old Hand at the Job P GAti 1t 0NiS"i-.

But although he was by no means infallible, he was, as his Chief told him, both impudent and lucky. Certainly both impudence and luck ill. large quantities were called for on the Gretley job. Sent down to discover who was collecting and distributing the valuable information that was streaming out of there, and to stop the leak; he quickly tangled with as dangerous a collection of homegrown and imported Nazis as you'd care to meet in a black- out.. Calling on brains, brawn, luck and impudence, he dodged and twisted and bluffed, laid artful traps for the unwary, laughed and fought his way out of a number of tight corners; lost perhaps more tricks than he took but won the last in a fine blaze of action and quick -thinking.
