I Pet. 3:18. • 17. And if ye call on him as Father. Of course this has re - foram.° to prayer, and to prayer as engaged in by Christians Who without respect of persons. "To have respect of persons," i.e., "to be partial" to one or another. judgeth according to each man's work. The Father will judge our work not according to our great achievements, nor according to results as the world estimates re- sults, but according to our faith- fulness in the task he assigns us in proportion to the ability which he has given us. Pass the time of your sojourning. In fear. While "Father" expresses love, we should remember. that we are not only to love God, but to fear God, asethe Lord Jesus Christ taught (Luke 12:5); *and both can Certainly ex- ist h this life in the same heart when speaking of our relationship to God. Our Redemption 18. Knowing that ye were re- deemed. The primary meaning of the term "redeemed" is to de- liver from slavery, or captivity under the power of enemies, by the payment of a ransom. The two ideas of ransom and sacrifice pass into each other. • What was effected by the ancient sacrifice was the removal of a threatening , penalty. A. M'an was considered a captive or prisoner to a divine re- tribution if this was not rendered. In the death of Christ his blood is thus a ransom, and the atonement accomplished by him is a redemp- tion. Not with corruptible things, with silver or gold. From your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers. The apostle Peter is probably referring to the emptiness of the life of pagan people in the Roman world, before they were redeemed by the Lord Jesus Christ. , 19. But with precious blood, as of a lamb. Without blemish and spot, even the blood of Christ In the Scriptures it is always the blood that makes atonement for the soul, because the blood repre- • sents life, and in sacrifice blood implies life given up, life sacri- 6ced,in, othereWorde, death. in, of Christ is Werth an' ' infinite price, first of all, because it is sinless blood, the only sinless Wood this World has ever known. 44t. 20. Who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the World. Nothing that God under- takes is the result of some sudden decision on his part; he knows all things from the beginning, awl he knows from the beginning what he is going to do throughout all the ages. But was manifested at the end of the times for your sake. Peter epeaks of the time of our Lord's appearing as at the "end of the times," by which he probably means the end ef the long Jewish dispensation, which was then brought to a close. 21. Who through him are be- lievers in God, that raised him from the dead, and gare him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in 'God. Love For One .Another 22. Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth. The instrument by which this work of purification is to be accomplished is found in "obedi- ence to the truth", the truth standing here for the sum and substance of the revelation of God in Christ. Unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love „one another from the heart fervently. So oft- en people who are supposedly holy in life seem to be aloof from common humanity, to be cold,and indifferent to life about them, in such a way that ito .one is ever conscious of any love in -their hearts. How important real love is in winning others to the Lord! 23. Havibg been bekotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth,eind abideth. As the first creation was throegh him, so is the new creation. 20. For what 'Wavy is it, if, 'when ye sin, and ave buffeted for it, ye shall take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.. Any one who does evil should expect to be ptthished foe it, and hi patiently bearing such punishment there is ebsolutely nothing to be proud of, nothing in which one rnight, glory, , • Follow Christ's Steps • 21.

Here he is seen with Hon. Vincent Massey, Canadian high commissioner to London, as they go over the proposed. route to be taken by his majesty's entourage during its Canadian visit this summer. Mr. Massey is pointing at one of the places to be visited.

Who his own self bare our sins in his body. By saying that Christ bore our sins in his body we do not mean to indicate in any way, that Christ was sinful, but that he took ,to himself all our sins, and therefore took our place as a sinner, and bore the penalty for- those sins.

But our humble turnip is a real delicacy to many of our interna- tional neigbbors who prize it high- ly and who, apparently unable to grow it as we •grow it, buy it by the carload each year. They call the turnip a drutalbaga" and some restaurants in. the South feature it on their menus as we would fea- ture an exotic fruit imported front a tropical clime. Western Ontario seems to have captured the bulk of this turnip export trade, and the counties of Middlesex, Huron, Perth, Oxford, Waterloo and Wellington have been profitting from It for years. Now Bruce county is beginning to develop a similar trade with the country to the south and it is ex- pected that froze that' new district alone fully 300 carloads will be shipped to the United States be- fore the waxing season is ended. eteeeeteseeeeteen•-ales-s-edasseee, • BY ROBERTA LEE Modern Etiquette • 1.-4S it permissible forA guest to use his own fork or spoon to help himself from some dish? • 2. -Should a girl of sixteen a - 'ter her seat in a street car or bus to a man of fifty who is standing? S. -Should one ask permission of the one referred to, when fur- nishing a reference? 4. -When a young • man has been introduced to a girl, would it be all right for him to say, "I am pleased to meet you"? 5 -When a single man is invit- ed for dinner to the home of mar- ried friends, should he take the hostess a box of candies or flow- ers? 6. -Is it all right to use seal- ing wax on the envelope of a so- cial or a business letter? ANSWERS No. If the dish does not cone tain a fork or spoon, it is an in- dication that whatever is on it it to be taken with the fingers. It is wailer grotesque to see a guest trying to spear a stalk of celery with a fork, or dish out potato chips with a spoon. 2. It is not • necessary, unless the man seems feeble or ill, or is carrying a baby. 3. Yes; one should always ask for permission of the individual whose name is given as reference. 4. No, Such phrases as "I am pleased to meet you" and "I ant glad to make your acquaintance" are not in good taste. The accepted ack- nowledgment is "How do you do?" 5. This is a thoughtful thing to • do, particularly if the man is not in e position to return the invita- tion, 6. It is all right to use it on a social letter, but not on a busi- ness letter. Brown Corn Found A Profitable Crop Added. to the already gTeat ac- tivity in tobacco growing in the Strathroy (Ont.) district, local farmers have, during the last few weeks, been 'contracting for the growing of broom corn, a product that is entirely new for that area. It is claimed that the district is ideal for the growing of broom RADIO NOTES like sheep.

The BOOK SHELF Sy ELIZABETH EEDY 1 FOR THE GARDEN LOVER Now that the season has advanc- ed, far enough to permit the gard- ener's interest to range beyond the seed catalogue stage, we begin to think of planting things and doing something about the garden in a big way. Musson's have just brought out two new books, very instructive as well as attractive, that will tell you just about everything you want to know, "Canadian Home Gardening the Year 'Round" deals with the subject iu all its branches, indoors and out -fruits, flowers and vegetables; lawns, roses, shrubbery, beds and borders. "Gardening as a Hobby" has excel- lent charts and photographs, uses tables to supply the' reader at a glance with information en plant- ing methods for annuals, peren- nials, roses, bras and lawns. Here in quickly available form, is the necessary data about grafting, fer- tilizers, cold frames, iusects,'plant diseases and the like. "Canadian Horne Gardening The Year 'Round" by A. B.

MADGE AMOS 'SP ANDY LI moving from NBC to Colum- bia on April 3, Amos and Andy have now been heard on every major network on this continent. They have been broadcasting for the past eleven years, undoubted- ly creating a record in radio, They must have made all these moves for the purpose of seeking new audiences, something broad- casters have to do no matter how popular they are. It is a question now of what the bleckfece team will do following the Columbia stint, which, after all, must end sometime. Will they go back to Mutual and start the rounds again? -0- TRAVELLING PROGRAMS The latest and most expensive hobby to be taken up by broadcast- ers, is that of the travelling pro- gram. So far the circuit has just included Hollywood and New York, with occasional Chicago stop -overs. Rudy Vallee, prime radio origin- ator, was one of the first to start shuttling back and forth. The latest travellers were Charlie Mc- Carthy and his Chase and Sanborn company, who have just spent two weeks in New York and will return to their home studios in Hollywood on Sunday, March 26. This trip is their first venture, Bob Bench - ley will move his show to Holly- wood on April 3. Lawrence Tibbet spent the winter commuting back and forth to appear on the "Circle" in Hollywood and at the same time bad to keep his scheduled appoint- ments with the Met. in New York. Rudy Vallee is 'back in Hollywood for eight weeks. Jack Benny has been back, and forth this year, as has Fred Alien, "Tune Up Time" ARCHER, so far has jut made use way conversations between capital and Broadway. -0--- • Mutual will continue its practice of streamlining grand opera by condensing each work into an hour's performance. "Faust" will be so treated on April 24, at 10.30 part. Henry Weber, who directs, cuts out einnecessary action, puts the work into English and brings the language up to date. Dramatic passages are spoken, but the chief musical numbers remain intact, -0- TO BE HEARD- March 23, Tune Up Time, Grace Moore, guest, 10 p.m., CBS. • . Calgary Symphony, 8 p.m., CBC. .
