LESSON XIII
PETER INTERPRETS CHRIST'S
SUFFERINGS AND DEATH
1 Peter 1;17.23; 220.25

feral for sins once, the righteous
for the unrighteousness, that he
might bring Us to aod. I Pet.

Father. Of course this has re -

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,

While making a visit to Earl's Court exhibition hall in London, it was
only natural that the King should evince great interest in a huge map of
Canada on display there. Here he is seen with Hon. Vincent Massey,

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.

Christ bore our sins in his body

But our humble turnip is a real
delicacy to many of our interna-

ly and who, apparently unable to
grow it as we •grow it, buy it by
the carload each year. They call

restaurants in. the South feature it
on their menus as we would fea-
ture an exotic fruit imported front

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.

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.

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.

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?

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,

way conversations between
capital and Broadway.

• 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,
