A There has long been the need for a dramatized news feature originating in Canada. Formerly broadcasts of this type mostly originated in the United States or overseas. So it is a matter of 'congratulation that ten stations of a Canadian network, originat- ing at CFRB, Toronto, have just commenced a new series of dra- matized news -of -the -week pro- grames, Thursdays, 9.30 to 10 p.m. The presentations are of versatile character, including mews interpretations from Cana- dian magazines, and bringing to the microphone in person, people who have hit the headlines. The program is styled "Canadian Cavalcade" and is well worthy of your interest. * * * The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and the British Broadcasting Corporation have Ttecently been indulging in a series sof exchange features. Perhaps you've caught them in the 10.30 $o 11 o'clock Friday night spot. As part of this series Friday, bctober 15, will provide a "Can- ada to Britain" broadcast, which will also be heard over the CBC network, entitled "The Spacious Land" and which will interpret the revolution in Canadian farm- ing which has taken place during the years of the war. It should be of particular interest to lis- teners in rural Ontario, as well MARINER'S WAKE Gliding to a lanclin, on an east coast naval air station, a Martin Mariner patrol bomber leaves O. white trail of stn ay in its +a eke. !L REX FROST as to those engaged in agricul- ture across the Atlantic. Rex Battle has long been re- garded as one of Canada's finest concert pianists, as well as an outstanding band leader. Those who enjoy the artistry of the ivory keyboard will no doubt make a point of tuning in CFRB, 14Ion- day and Friday evenings, 7.45 to 8 p.m., when Rex Battle renews the bi-weekly series of piano re- citals which appear to have been so highly regarded last season. * * * This fall and winter radio is taking an important and ever- expanding place in school educa- tion. The Educational Depart- ments of every province in the Dominion are now co-operating with the CBC in presenting reg- ional broadcasts of science, his- tory, and the arts for classroom listening. On Wednesday, Octo- ber 13, at 10 o'clock in the morn- ing, the dramatized history and geography series "New Horizons" will commence with the story of "The Shape of the World." The following Thursday, October 14, at the same morning hour, the first of the series "Tales From Near and Far" will go on the air. Thus is radio making geography and history easy to take. And as another item of juven- ile interest, music, laughter and fun are all stored up and ready to go in a special radio packet for children with the arrival of the "Children's Scrapbook" anni- versary. Mary Grannan's famous program will commence its fifth season on Saturday, October 16, at 12,30 noon, and will be heard from coast to coast over the CBC National Network. * * * Just a further word about the discussions now taking place In Britain regarding the status of the BBC. A couple of weeks ago we told of the spirited discussion which has been prompted by the corning time of renewal of the charter of the Corporation. The SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON October 24 HONORING OUR PARENTS—. Exodus 20;12; Luke 2;48.51; Mark 7:6.13; John 19:25-27. GOLDEN TEXT.—Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Ephesians 6:1. Memory Verse: Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; 'fano he is good. Psalm 136:1. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING "Time. --The Ten Commandments were given. about 1445 B.C•; the Incident taken film " oar Lord's boyhood occurred in April, A.D. 8; our Lord's condemnation of Jewish men who dishonor their parents was spoken in April, A.D. 29; and the word from the cross was ut- tered on Friday, April 7, A.D. 30. Place.—The Ten Commandments were given at Mount Sinai; the incident from our Lord's boyhood took place in the Temple in Jer- usalem and later at Nazareth; the discourse about unfaithfulness to parents was given at Capernaum; our Lord was crucified outside the city wall of Jerusalem. Honor For Parents "Honor thy father and thy moth- er, that thy days may be long in the laud which. Jehovah thy God giveth thee." The honor for our parents is love combined with rev- erence.' It also includes gratitude and obedience and support in their old age. A spirit of obedience and respect to parents implies a well - ordered life in general, a prospect of prosperity and a long life. "And when they saw him they were astonished; . and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I sought thee sorrow- ing," Jesus' parents were amazed because the simple and obedient childhood. of Jesus had not pre- pared' them tet find Him question- ing these great men. First Words of Jesus "And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? knew ye not that I must be in my Father's house?" These words are memor- able as being the first recorded words of Jesus. Notice that he does not accept the phrase, "Thy Father'. He speaks of 'My Fath- er', recalls who He was and from whence He came. He came to do His Father's work and here In His childhood He is conscious of His divine mission. "And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them. And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth; and he was subject unto them: and his moth- er kept all these sayings in her heart." Jesus went on as an obed- ient child to Joseph and Mary. The set time had not come to claim his independence. Though the Son of God, He was also the Son of Mary, and he recognized His mother's claim upon His love, care and obedience. Doctrines of God and Man "And he said unto them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypo- crites, as it is written, This people honoreth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me." These ritualists were honoring God by mere outward worship but their hearts were full of pride, unclean- ness and hypocricy. "But in vain do they worship me, teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men. Ye leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men." Only the Commandments of God are to be observed. When we follow the doctrines of men, then we go as- tray. Responsibility Avoided "And he said unto them, Full well do ye reject the command- ment of God, that ye may keep your tradition. For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother; and, He that speaketh evil of fath- er or mother, let him die the death: but ye say, If a man shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou nnlghtest have been profited by me is Cor - ban, that is to say, Given to God; ye no longer suffer him to do aught for his father or his mother; making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have de- livered; and many such like things ye do," They rejected the authority of . God for the authority of man-- . a sin which is very common in our day. Notice that the same punish- ment was -to be meted out to those who cursed their parents as to those who cursed God (Lev. 20:9; 24:16).' Our Lord did not condemn the practice of giving to God ex- cept where it was done to get rid of+the duty of aiding our parents. He shut his heart and his hand to his parents and obeyed the law of man, not of God. When the re- ligious leaders of a nation tamper with the Word and substitute their own inhuman laws, then fol- lows conflict, and civilization is threatened. Christ's Care For His Mother "These things therefore the sol- diers did. But there were stand - ring by the cross of Jesus his moth- er, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Mag- dalene." When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!" This incident shows how Christ, in his dying moments yearned over His mother. Hi thoughtfulness and love shone out, even in death. The Disciple's Obedience "Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour the disciple took her unto his home." Jesus gave a mother to his dearest friend, and a son to the broken heart of His widowed mother. John regarded his trust as a mark of loving confidence in him. The point to notice is that of his perfect obedience. latest rumor is that the BBC MAY (spelled in CAPITALS) go commercial , may agree to broadcast a limited number of programs with a soap, a cigarette, a cough syrup or other commer- cial sponsor. Anent such rumors, it is our impression that, as and when the BBC goes commercial, • Farmer Bousfield's famous cow , from Appleby which recently astonished British agriculture by,.,. giving birth to four calves, will be seen taking a jump over the rinoon, followed in quick proces- sion by her quadruplet offspring. After That? Now that the Japanese are be- ing more or less put in their places one does not hear so much about Port Darwin, which must ' make it dull for the troops there, relates The Manchester Guard- ian. One American soldier on leave put it this way: "When you've been there a fen',•weeks yea find yourself talking to your- self. After that you find your- self talking to the lizards. After another couple of weeks you find the lizards talking to you. Then you find yourself listening." FEATHERED FRIEND One wary to find housing these days is to move in with some- one else, as dith the amazingly tame sparrow, Butch, who in- vaded a Chicago home and promptly made friends with the. family's bewildered terrier. HONOR R.C.A.F. BOMBARDIER Flight Sgt. A. W. Larden, of North 'Bay, Ont., has just been awarded the conspicuous gallan- try medal. With the announce- ment of the decoration the story of his exploit was revealed. Bombardier of an English bas= ed heavy bomber, he brought the aircraft safely to a North Af- rican airfield after the pilot had been seriously wounded and the Navigator killed by anti-aircraft fire during an attack on Turin. The aircraft was over the Ital- ian Alps when it was hit. The navigator was killed at once. The pilot fell over the controls, wounded, Larden who had never before piloted an aircraft for any length of time took the pi- lot's place. Fortunately he had some knowledge of the controls. He realized there was little chance of his being able to get the aircraft back to England, so after taking evasive action he de- cided to jettison his bombs and make for the North African coast, but the bomb release mechanism had been damage,'. by shell fire and he found it impossible to release the bombs. Larden flew on. He had been at the controls for :Zearly five hours when the wireless operator shouted through the intercom that he had made contact with a North Af- rican air base. Larden had never attempted to land a bomber be- fore and the crew breathlessly awaited the ordeal of the land- ing by night. They circled the airfield and made a perfect -belly landing . . rith nearly four th.,usand. pounds of bombs still in the bomb bay. When they landed it was found that there were 36 holes in the aircraft. Here is F. - Sgt. Larden (right) lighting a cigarette for Sgt. T. Guy of Northampton, the radio operator who made contact w' 't a North African base. By Gwendoline P. Clarke Well, here I am again—back home from my summer vacation. You didn't know I had been away? Oh, but I have—defin- itely! I spent two whole days in the city this week. And I would defy anyone to cram more into that short time than I did. Each clay was a mixture of shopping, visiting and shows. I was stay- ing .with Daughter, and it was really funny. Daughter was on night shift and when 1 got out of bed in the morning, refreshed after a night's sleep, she crawl- ed into it, weary after a night' work. In a few minutes she would be asleep and I would slip out to go visiting or shopping. About two -thirty back I came again and then we would finish the day together until it was time for Daughter to go to work again. You know — 1 have always thought of rooming houses as such stuffy places with a variety of cooking odours, a minimum of privacy and eieryone wanting the use of the bathroom at the sanne time. But now I realize thei:e are other -types' of rooming houses, for the place where Daughter lives is as much like a hcme :as any place could be— complete with a six -months -old puppy who will steal your shoes and tear your stockings as quick as a flash, if you don't watch out. But he was a darling puppy and he and I were the best of friends. The hostess of the house is one of the best—young, friendly and ready to do anything for you, Why, just imagine, even though Daughter does not board there nothing would do but I must have my breakfast with the family, Ancl was I, glad, for the • smell• .o• the coffee as it perked just about got me down! Of course I had to wake up at six o'clock in the morning just when I had a chance t sleep in—aueh is the force of habit. * * The sales clerks in the 'store's were also very friendly. There was the job tailor wha was doing a small repair on :y winter coat. He was very busy but when he knew I was from out of town he said he would get the job done somehow before 'I left. And he did. And the middle -age woman in the dress department --she knew what T wanted bet- ter than I did myself—and she hunted the store over until she found it. As for the man in the ' ehoes" it wasn't long before we discov- ered we had mutual friends of long standing. * City people unfriendly and disobliging? I should say not. At least, not if you approach them with the thought in mind that they are human beings— remembering they are men and women with wok ries and prob- lems like our own, each with his or her living to make and many of then with boys and girls away from home but yet never far dis- tant from them in their thoughts. "And the colonel's lady and Judy O'Grady" in this day and age are not only "sisters under their skins" but they each have the same amou.it of coupons in their ration books, the same worry about how to make the sugar last out, and how to stretch the but- ter just a little further.. k * ,R By Saturday noon I was back home again but I didn't find a welcome sign out on the doormat. instead I found a note on the kit- chen table from Partner ---"Gone to Tom's threshing — let the horses in for a drink if they come. to the gap." , So I got into my work -a -day clothes and was soon back in '•harness once aglin, busyi with chores outside •and hi the house. Now they are finished and here I am at my typewriter until Part- ner comes along. They say vari- ety is the spice of life and I'm thinking 1 hay.; at least got a pretty fair share of the •spice, 'if nothing else. POP—Iron Doors, No Doubt I s .. NOTHING AN OB STA TO YOU POP By J.
