Exodus 3 12. tViemory Verse: The Lord is my holfper, Hebrews 13 : THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Tante--1446.1445 B.C., ,, Place -Tire call to Moses occur- red near Mount Sinai (or Mount Horeb), God Prepares Moses "And% Moses said unto God, Be.' Hold, when I come unto the chit- ' fleet of Israel, and shall say uuto Chem, The God of your fathers hath sent nee unto you; and they shall say, to me. What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14. "And God said moreover unto :THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the. children or Israel, I AM bath sent me unto you," When Moses asks God for a special revelation of His name, that he might assure the Israel - iter he had come to them under a dim ine commission, God told him that His name was I AM THAT I AM. He could now say, He in •whose name I come 'is about to realize the promise of the land of Canaan the seed of Abraham. God's Name Forever "1.nd God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, Jehovah, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial un- to all generations." This state- ment contains a very important truth—a truth which many profes- sing Christians seem to forget, namely, that God's relationship wilt Israel is an eternal one. He does not say, 'This is my naive ton a time, so long as they con- tinue what they ought to be.' No; 'tbie is my name forever, and this is my memorial auto all gener- ations. "Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say unto them, Jehovah, the God of your fathers; the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of racob, hath appeared unto me, saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt." Here Is a definite promise on the part of God that He will surely deliver His people out of the affliction of Egypt, and veil, bring them 'Into a land flow- ing with milk and honey.' God's Answer "And Moses said unto Jehovah, Oh. Lord, I am not eloquent, neith- er heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant; for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. And Jehovah said unto him, who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh a man dumb, or dean, or seeing, or blind? is it not I, Jehovah? Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt speak." The work had nothing whatever to do with the eloquence or in- eloquence of Moses. It was not to be measured or determined by his eersonal gifts. The moment. there: fere. that he turned to his individ- ual talents, he lost sight of the great end which he was called in- Etramentally to aecompiish. "Anti he said, 011, Lord, sent, 7 pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send," This is a curt impatient, and scarcely rever- ent speech. Moses means that he will undertake the task if God in- s sis.ts; but that God would do far better to. send another. Moses' Commission "And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Moses, and he said. Is there not Aaron thy broth- er the Levite? I know that he can speck well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart. And thou shalt speak unto hila, and put the words in his mouth; and I will be with th,- mouth, and with bis mouth, and will teach you what ye shall And he shall be thy spokesman 'unto the people; and it shall come to pass, that he shall be to thee a mouth, and thou shalt be to him as God, And thou shalt take thy hand this rod, wherewith thou shalt do the signs," The word here trans- lated anger is the Scripture phrase appropriate for description of God's -feeling toward idolatry (Excel. 25). Perhaps Moses here betrays an inward fear of Egypt's :ieatheuism, as well as lack of frank ardor or readiness for battle kith it, Aaron is here mentioned for the first time. Three years older than Moses (Exod. 7 : 7), he seems to have been all this time in good standing in Egypt. In Aaron we never see real great - nes.; in Moses when once he Is under way, we never see little- ness:" Well indeed is it when the soul dries with the great apostle: 'We are not sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves.' But we must Beware, for there is a hidden line over which self -dis- trust may not pass, lest it become unbelief. Cherish the lowliest thought you .ohoose of yourself, but unite it with the loftiest con eegtion of God's all -sufficiency, Assigned to the galley of a U. S. minesweeper at San Diego, nine -weeks -old Scuttlebutt is both mascot and ship's cook 2nd class for his shipmates. Self -depreciation may lead to the marring of a useful life. We must think soberly of ourselves, not too lowly, as not too extravagantly. The one talent must not be buried in the earth. It would seem as though in every step of the way at this. time in Moses' life, he.needed reassurance from God that he cannot turn back and fail to achieve the great task which God now was ready to have accomplished, So the Lord spoke to him once again, telling him not to hesitate to go back to Egypt, for all the men were dead who had sought his life. Moses, w d when dbe went down to Egypt, all those things which the Lord had told hint to do and not just simply to arrive there as the place to which God had sent hint, but also • to do that for which he was seat.

Minimum or "floor" prices are in effect in the case of some pro- ducts. Grains Prices of cereal and food grains and certain field crops are fixed from time to time for both ceiling and floor purpose's, For the most part these are dealt with by the Canadian wheat Board. The static which comes in on a radio set is picked up and set t,, work eliminating its own noise in a new control announced by the Goodyear Tire and Lubber Company. The static is reduced from thousands of volts to about one - twenty thousandths of a volt, and the result is like a muffler on an auto, reducing static noise tr a purr which does not drown out the radio. Gilbert Andersen, the inventor, said the crashing, static noise - Made by nearby lightning is re- duced to about the 'loudness of the rustle of a sheet of paper. The static eliminator will not be made for the public until after the war. It is a small device, of electronic tubes, made to plug into any radio set. Ordinary radio signals, which carry broadcast voices, conte in with an average strength of about one -twenty - thousandth of a volt. Occasionally these radio signals are down to a millionth of a volt. most, The new tubus pick up but not all, of the static voltage. That pick-up eliminates part of the noise. Livestock There are no ceiling prices on the sales by farmers of live cattle, calves, hogs, sheep or lambs. Def- inite ceiling prices have been es- tablished on the sale of meats of such animals at the wholesale and retail level. Floor Prices on Beef An arrangement was announced for the establishment of floor prices on dressed bee! which will have the effect . of establishing floors on beef cattle prices.

Milk The sale of fluid milk from both the producer and the distributor is governed 1n most eases by pro. vincial milk boards, who set the price at which producers sell to dealers or to plants, and also the prices at which the milk is to be sold at retail to consumers.

The inventor referred to is uone other than the famous Colonel Lemuel K. Stoopnagle, whose crazy inventions and labour- saving devices have always prov- ed. rowed real laugh raisers, Laughs are what we need these days to chase away wartime problems, and the Colonel promises plenty of laughs, sparkling music and scintillating dialogue in his Tuesday evening series of broadcasts entitled simp- ly, "The Colonel." * * * If you are searching the dial at 7 o'clock on Sunday evening for a r e al I 3r interesting programme, make a point of tuning in CFRB and picking up the new series of dramatic+ episodes entitled "Chips Davis — Commando".
