And if you think there's much
money in shoe -strings, you're crazy.
School days' are among my most
pleasant memories. In fact the
happiest years of my life were
spent in the third grade. And, Oh,
I'll never forget that wonderful
.day I 'graduated to grade four!
Was it exciting! I was shaking so
much I could hardly shave. Gradu-
ating from high school I then took
medicine for three years. Felt a
lot better too. After university
I didn't have a scent. Then

While Alan Young bas never

CICCL has sent many stars to the
American Networks. The Clithrow
B other left . Toronto and went
t, New York and became an
immediate hit on Major Bowes
"Capital Family". They did a lot
of night club work and were heard
on many other Ainerican Network
Broadcasts, Ruth Lowe who used
to do a singing act on CICCL went
te New York and became famous
as a night club entertainer and
broke into the music business by
writing the song, "I'll Never Smile
Again". Charlie Fitzgerald went to
England, became a star on the
British Broadcasting Corporation
stations, starred in musical comedy
and is now serving as an officer
in the Royal Air Force. Ann
Jemison who appeared on both
CFRB and CICCL went to the
'United States radio and finally
wound up as a motion picture star.
This all refutes the critics who
maintain that Canada does not
have good Radio talent. Canada
has the best, Canadian sponsors
won't pay out and naturally the
artists go • where they can make
the most money.
Garden Notes
Take Little Room
Small vegetables like lettuce and
iadish require rows only is inches
Apart. Beets, beans, carrots, peas
and spinach need a little more
space between, while potatoes, corn
and staked tomatoes must have a
couple of feet to thirty inches.
Space may be saved with the latter
type if . something quick -maturing
such as lettuce and spinach are
planted in between. The bigger
things will not treed the full room
at first, and by the time they do
the early crops will be out of the
way.
If room is extremely limited, then
experts advise confining veget-
ables to such heavy yielders as
beans, lettuce, carrots, beets,
onions, celery and, possibly, staked
lomain•••,•• 20 -foot roW-ot any -
of these will supply- many meals
for a small family. • The expert
who appreciates garden • freshness
will also include peas and corn.
These things take up .more room,
and at least 25 feet of row is need-
ed for a worthwhile crop, but only
from the garden right at the door
can really fresh corn and peas be
obtained.
• Keep 'Eat Spaced
One can save oneself a. lot of
stooping and bother by proper
spacing of seed when sowing. With
beans, peas and such seed, from
three to five inches apart is about
right With fine seeds like those
of carrots, lettuce and such it is
difficult to space evenly and thinly
but with a little care one can pre-
vent bunching. This care in sow-
ing will be repaid later when the
plants start to grow, as much
thinning will be saved.
But even with this carefal sowing,
some thinning is inevitable with
-beets, onions, parsnips, and similar
fine seed plants. The object is
to give room for early growth. It
is net necessary to thin—say—beets
and carrots to more than an inch
or so apart. Long before they have
reached full maturity a lot of the
beets and carrot:will have been
pulled and usd. When the plants
art half grown one Can start using
every other one in the row.
Not Too Deep
Generally speaking, the amateur
is inclined to plant too deep. Seed
so planted will not germinate well.
The general rule is three times the
dizuneter, which means mere press-
ing into the soil for fine seed
like that of radish, poppy, carrot,
etc,, and about one or two inches
.deep for beans and peas. With
bulbs end tub rs like gladiolus and
potatoes, from six to ten inches
deep is recommended, the heavier
the soil .the shallower the plaet-

Time—The council at Jerusalem
assembled in A.D, 50. We are not
sure when Patti rebuked Peter at
Antioch, except that it was some
years subsequent to the council. -
Place—Jerusalem was the great
city of Palestine,
in Judah, and An-
tioch, mentionedin bath sections of
our lesson, was located in the nor-
thern part of Syria.
Paul's Greeting to Church
"The apostles and the elders, bre-
thren, unto the brethren who- are
of the Gentiles in Antioch and
Syria and Cilicia, gfeeting." The
fact that the Gentile converts are
here addressed as 'brethren' is at
once an assurance of fall commun-
ion with the church in Jerusalem.,
The Council's Decree
"For as much as we have heard
that certain who went out from us
have troubled you with words sub-
verting your souls; to whom we
gave no commandment from
which if ye keep yourselves, it shall
be well with you. Fare ye well."
The apostle said they were send-
ing this letter by distinguished ser-
vants of God who had actually haz-
arded their lives for the sake of the •
Lord Jesus. They wiehed, the
church at Antioch to know that
this was not only their agreement,.
but that they found themselves
guided by the Holy Spirit in this
decision. There is no resisting the
implication that the Holy Spirit
had been assembled with them and
was with them of one accord. \Vhat
a radical revelation would take place
in all church assemblies if the sense
of The Spirit's presence were act-
ually felt and if everything were
said and done as if in His presence.
Later Account of Council
"Then after the space of four-
teen years I went up again to Jeru-
salem with Barnabas, taking Titus
also with me. And I went urby
revelation; and I laid before them
the gospel which I preacli among
the Gentiles but privately before
them Who were Olarepiete, lesteby

had run, in vain.":,
Paul first spoke in private to the
Apostles, and having shown them
that the Gospel as ha preached it
was pure and genuine, though
spoken ill of by many, he then ad-
dressed the assembly of believers.
Paul's visit was necessary .for the
satisfaction of his Gentile converts,
and also Inc the church in Jeru-
salem, that the identity of his Gos-
pel with that of the other Apostles
should be distinctly seen and ack-
nowledged. If lie failed to con-
vince the Apostles and the church
of the validity of his Gospel with-

.171iis is the morning. after! You
knot what I mean -7 -the morning
after Easter holidays , . and week-
encluests . , and the usual let-
down feeling that follows all such
eecaeions, The weather over the
holiday was not the hest—good on
Friday but wet and foggy Saturday.
However We got around.
* * *
Did we have any trouble enter-
taining our guests? None at all.
Part of the time we put them to
Work -•-• and ro one objected.
Yeto, see we had a very nice
little; job on hand that I had been
rather dreading. It was moving
about eighty pullets from one pen
• to another, Have you tried cat-
, Oil yearling pullets and carrying
theateabaut six at a time from one
• pla4'to another? You have? Yes,
I thought so. Then you know
how hot you get and how tired of
trailiag through the mud — that
• ise if there are only two of you
to do the Work. But many hands
• Make light work. So, after dinner
on, Friday, I hunted old coats and
' overalls and the fbur of us went
to Work. T. did the catching—with
a hook •--• and the other three did
• the , carrying. After the pullets
were in their new pen we stood
looking at them and I said some-
thing about birds looking hot.
Daughter said immediately—"Why
should they look hot — they did-
n't hake to carry themselves?"
* *
The next afternoon we went to
Guelph — all of us that is, except
Partner. Nothing we could say
would :convince him that the trip
• was W.orthwhile- for him. And no
• doubt. .he was right because in-
stead of having a holiday he had
extra work for the week -end. Two
cows had calved in one day and
a ' third had serious intentions
along the same line. Warm
drinking water te carry , . . calves
to be taught to drink . . . caws to
be watched in case of complications
• --and to be milked just so much
and no more. But I was glad
of an opportunity to go to Guelph
—or any city for that matter. There
was shopping I just had to do.
And then, too, I was hoping there
might be a chance to pick up a
good puppy. In fact I thought of
so many things to do it is more

The Hand of Fellowship
"And when they perceived the
grace that was given unto me,
James and Cephas and John, they
who were reputed to be pillars, gave
to me and Barnabas the right hand
of fellowship, that we should go un-
to the Gentiles, and they unto the
circumcision; only they would that
we should remember the • poor;
which' very thing I was also zeal-
ous to do." .. These three were
rightly regarded as eminent pillars
in the church; they publicly ack-
nowledged Paul and Barnabas as
fel lowlabourers, in _whom they had
perfect confidence. Paul li a d
shown much interest in the poor
saints of Jerusalem and was ready
to do the same again,
• True Conversion
- "I, have been cruicified with
Christ; and it is no longer I that
live, but. Christ liveth in me: and
that life ,which 1 now live in the
flesh I live in faith, the faith which
- is :in the Son of God, who loved me
and gave himself up for me,"
Where conversion. is' real, where
the soul lives in vital union with
Christ, there a nobler, richer, ful-
ler life is revealed. It was Paul's
deep realization• of Christ's love to-
. Wardeso great a sinner that moved
him to give himself unreservedly to
Christ.
No Salvation by Works
"I do not make:mid the Grace
of Gocl: for- if 'eighteousness is
throngh the law a then Christ died for
nought." There is no righteous-
ness, no salvation by works of the
Law. If there were then Christ
died. in vain. If you can be saved
by your own good works, what
need vitas there Inc Him to leave
His Father's home and suffer the
cruel death of Calvary?
in real life. I would have loved
a puppy from that place. But
we didn't get one. For one reason
there weren't any, and if there
had been the price was $251 After
all we are not thinking •of raising
a show dog,
* *
Sunday morning Partner had
noble at the barn, The expect-
ant heifer got "Hooked", Most
of our cows are Ayeshires and
.their horns . . . However, although
the heifer was torn she seemed to
be all right. But of course we
couldn't be sure.
After supper I was getting ready
to drive our departing guests to
the station when Partner came to
me to help him move the heifer
to another stall. "Put on one
of my smocks and a cap so you
don't scare her" said Partner, So
I dressed according to instructions
and went to the barn. The heifer
still seemed to be all right. Then
away I went to the •station. The
train was late—it was an hour
and a half before I got home.
Partner came in just afterwards.
"How is the heifer?" was my first
question, "It's all over," said Part-
ner, "the calf has arrived. Just
• the slickest calving I ever saw."
* * *
So that was that . , . three heifer
calves in as many days. Very
nice, of course , . . splendid for
milk production, and all that. But
v-hy did they have to arrive just
now when Partner would have
liked a little more time to visit?
But that's the way it goes. "Time
and tide wait for no man"—neither
do cows that decide to calve.
