For instance, the first day we had
the chicks, I could cough, sneeze,
rang away at the stove or do any-

no notice whatsoever. The second
clay, when I shook the fire down,
the little things stood absolutely
still, as much as to say—"What's
going to Rappers to us now?" The
third day they were used to stove
rises but when I sneezed, rather
violently, and twice in succession,
they made one wild scramble to
fee far corners of the pen. And

After awhile, having fed their fill
and quenched thirst, they are

sink to the floor, others would

more like dopey or half dead

wide-awake brothers and sisters
would run over the top of their
sleeping bodies without ''so much
as saying "By your leave". Up
jump the sleeping chickens, now
very much alive and awake, shake
themselves, run a few steps, and
then settle down again, to sleep
until once more disturbed.
In the meantime I finished my

district, was unavoidably delayed.
I found the response very gratify-

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time.—The conversion of::cthe
Apostle Paul probably, took ,place
in the year A.D. 36, while the be
ginning of his ministry in Antioch
occurred about A.D. 43,
Place.—Antioch was a great city
of Syria, on the left bank' of •the
Orontes River, fifteen miles inland
from the Mediterranean sea, Dame
aseus, of coarse, was the capital
of Syria, as - Jerusalem was ' the
great .city of .Palestine.
Saul's Early Ministry
"And he was certain days with
the disciples that were at Dam-
ascus and straightw. y. in the s3 na-
gogues be fu'oclaimeu Jesus, that
he is the Son of God. And all..that
heard him were amazed, and °said,
is that this he that in Jerusalem
made havoc of them that called
on his name? And he had
hither for this intent, that be 'Might
bring them bound before the chief
priests." .
''hat a great change bad taken
place in this roan Saul! But a few
days before this he was the most
violent pereecutor of anyone who
believed this very 'thing which.:te
was . now preaching. E verybile
knew that some tremendous poster
must have laid holy of Rini ` to
bring about such a transformation,
"But Saul increased the more in
strength and confoundzci the Jews
that dwelt at Damascus, proving
that this, is 'the Christ." 'haul be-
came more energetic in his new
labors. Saul knew the great truths
of the Old Testament as probably
few men of his generation knew
them. No one was able to con-
found him.
The Plot Against Saul
"Attd when many .days were ful-
filled, the Jetts took counsel to-
gether to kill bit: but their plot
became known to Saul. And they
watched the gates also day and
night that they might ':ill him: but
h. disciples took hint by- night,
and let •him down through
wall; lowering him in a basket "
What a difference between Saul's
original intention to enter into
Damascus in his bin•ntag hatred
aganst the Chr'.tians with the
picture we now have of him,
hounded ley- these very Jews who
would seek to murder bit, and
being helped out of the cit, by the
discipleswhom a few weeks ago
he sought to destroy,
. Saul In Jerusalem
"And when he was come to
Jerusalem. He assayed to join
himself to the disciples: and they
were all afraid of hint, not be-
lieving that be was a disciple." It
n.ust have been a bitter disappoint -
stent to Saul, coring fresh from
the persecution of the Jews, 'to
find himself repulsed by the.l3re-
thren. The disciples may have
thought that he re.tuened to his
former faith and had some sinister
motive its stasis;. to juin them,
Barnabas Befriends Saul
"But ii:irnaba, took him, and
brought hint to the apostles, and
declared unto them how he had
seen the Lord in the way, and
that he hit spoken eto him, and
hots at I.)ainaseus he hail preached
boldly in the name of Jests:"
While other leading Christians' -in
the city of Jerusaler.. looked with,
suspicion upon Saui, 1larnatias
came forward and 'toil: the young
disciple by the hand and gave stint
the weight of' his influence—the
influence' of wealth and character,
Saul Among The Brethren
"And be was with them going in
and going .out at Jerusalem.
Preaching boldly itt the name •of
the Lord: and he spoke and •dis.-
puted against the Grecian jews;
but they were seeking to kill him."
These. Grecians were the Greek
Jews at Ivhose instigation Stephen
had been put to death. Now Saul,
who had consented unto that
martyrdom, is exposed t:; a like
persecution.

1 A I REP T
Your columnist just back from a
sweeting of the Network affiliates
it•New York, at which be was the
sole Canadian representative, and
- jack Burche
v itich n asattended by represent-
atives of :15 American stations, was
amazed at the terrific arrangements
being made by the American net-
vorks • for the invasion of Europe
when it occurs. •
Eighty correspondents are ready
to go in with • the invasion wave,
and you will probably be getting
some of these "on the spot" battle
broadcasts. Perhaps in this con-
nection too, few laurels have been
handed to the Canadian Broadcast-
ing Corporation for the magnifi-
cent coverage job they have given
the Canadian Forces since the war
started. At the present time Jack
Kanawin, well-known to Canadian
Radio listeners, is in England as
head of the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation's Overseas Service
with a capable staff of engineers
and announcers. Bob Bowman who
headed the unit originally is now
its Washington" representing the
prc3s interests there.

Another thing the found nut in

works are suffering more and more
from the very acute manpower
shortage. Not only are announcers

With the church, and taught much

which the apostles gave to the pro-
per instruction of these new con-
verts. Is not this a perfect fulfill-
t.tent of the Lord's great command
to the apostles before Ilis ascen-
sian, that, going into all the nations
and baptizing believers, they were
to teach them 'to observe all things,
whatsoever I have commanded

Dunkerque Fleet
Asked To Stand By
Four years ago next May a call
went out from the British admir-
alty to all yachtsmen, to all owners
of launches, to all salt -water fish-
ermen, to all proprietors of burn -
boats to stat,d by for service, says
the New York Times, In respon4
there was soon mustered the
strangest fleet that ever sailed the
English Channel, the ragtags and
bobtails of a fleet, manned. in part
lay men used to, salt water and in
part by sten who hardly knew one
end of a boat from the other and
got seasick whenever the water
was ruffled This flotilla passed
over to Dunkerque. Some boats
were lost and some men with them,
but no boat was turned back While
it could still float and move, and
among them they brought to Eng-
land thousands upon thousands of
Englishmen and Frenchmen wltotn
the Nazis had counted as good as
dead
Now the crews of the little craft
are being asked to enroll again,
for service up to a terns of four
weeks some time within the next
six months. We can assume that
the Admiralty wishes to use them
to carry soldiers across tate Cltan-
i.e1. Last time they went empty
eastward and carte back loaded.
This time we suspect they will go
fully loaded to the coast of Europe.
The tide that set so strongly away
from France four years ago has
turned. It will be flowing strongly
eastward soon. The Allied tanks,
guns and infantry will be passing
through Dunkerque again—inward
bound.

we ran into Wes Mcliniglht in the
