LESSON V
JEHOSHAPI-IAT: A LIFE OF
OBEDIENCE
2 Chronicles 17:1-19
Printed Text. -2 Chronicles
17:1.6; 9-12.
Golden Text -Seek ye first his
kingdom, and his righteousness.
Matt, 6:33.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time.-Jeihoshapliat was born
in 908 B.C,; he ascended the
throne at the age of thirty-five in
873 B.C., and died in 849 B.C.
Place, -Principally the city of
Jerusalem.
Prosperity of Jehoshaphat's
Reign
1-2. And Jehoshaphat his son
reigned in his stead, and strength-
ened himself against Israel. And
he placed forces in all the fortified
cities of Judah, and set garrisons
in the land of Judah, and in the
cities of Ephraim, which Asa his
father had taken. Jehoshaphat as-
cended the throne of Judah upon
the death of his father, in 873
B.C., at the age of thirty-five, and
reigned for a quarter of a cen-
tury. Jehoshaphat was fortunate
in being theson of a father who
had himself left the kingdom of,
Judah stronger than he found it,
just as many sons come into a
large inheritance or fall heir to
a well-established business because
of the faithfulness and wisdom and
energy of a good father. Jehos-
haphat was an ideal son to sit up-
on the throne cf Judah in that he
determined to carry on the com-
mendable work that engaged his
father's attention during his
reign. Jehoshaphat was wise
enough to know that a nation's
permanent security and true wel-
fare can rest only upon the solid
rock of genuine religious convic-
tions.
3-4. And Jehovah was with Je-
hoshaphat, because he walked in
the first ways of his father David
and sought not unto the Baalim.
But sought to the God of his fa-
ther, and walked in his command-
ments, and not after the doings of
Israel. His father's previous life
was an incentive to Jehoshaphat
to follow the,God who alone could
redeem and bless his people; no
doubt there was a_ longing in this
young man's, heart 'for true

asci then in,;tlib•'Jives of`•his pea-
; ple. On the other hand, the idola-
trous practices of the Israelites to
the north and the constant pres-
sure of multitudes of people, who
found it much easier to yield to
the desires of the flesh than to fol-
low the Lard, to offer the shallow
worship which was sufficient when
bowing down before dead idols
than- to bring to an all -wise and
holy God a true spirit of convic-
tion and a desire to do his will,
would tend to draw him away from
his holy resolves.
5-0. Therefore Jehovah estab-
lished the kingdom in his hand;
and all Judah brought to Jehosha-
phat tribute; and he had riches
and honor in abundance. And
his heart was lifted up hi the ways
of Jehovah.
Religious Revival Under
Jehoshaphat •
As Jehoshaphat proceeded to
cleanse the land of Judah of its
idols and groves where pagan
practices were carried on, Ite came
to realize that the destruction of
these iniquitous devices was not
enough. The people's hearts
needed changing. Unless light
came into their souls, and they
saw Jehovah as the only true and
living God, they would sooner or
later go back to the same prac-
tices, and again make images like
unto those that he had destroyed.
So the king with greatest wisdom
undertook a vast program of re-
ligious teaching throughout all the
cities of. his kingdom. He sent
forth 14 men to teach the people.
9. And they taught; in Judah,
having the book of the 'Iaw of Je-
hovah with them; and they went
about throughout all the cities of
Judah, and taught among t'' t peo-
ple.,
Jehoshaphat did not think it
enough to leave things to be done
by existing institutions. Like a
wise and an ciernest man, he cast
about for additional methods, he
looked in all directions for mune-
dent mon to extend his pious pur-
pose.
10-11-12. And the fear of Je-
hovah fell upon all the kingdoms
of the lands that Were round about
Judah, so that they made no war
against Jehoshaphat. And some of
the Philistines brought Jehosha-
phat -presents, and silver tribute;
•the Arabians also brought him
flocks, seven thousand and seven
hundred rams, and seven thousand
and seven hundred he -goats. And
Jehoshaphat waxed great etceed
ingly, And he built in Judah cas-
tles and titles of store,

Rosie's Fourth Fit of Temper
Rosie, bad actor of the elephant troupe in the Ringling Bros. circus touring eastern Canada recently, didn't
like the tasks assigned to her, when the big tent was being pitched in Toronto. She seized an attendant in
her trunk, tossed hint to the ground and injured him so badly that he was rushed to hospital for attention.
This picture, taken just as the pachyderm's temper flared, shows keepers driving back Rosie while the injured
man crawls to safety (arrow). According to reports this is Rosie's fourth fit of temper ending in injury to
her keepers in the current season.
Youth Camps
Plan Rejected
Federal Minister of Labor Rog-
ers Gives Reasons For Turn-
ing Down Idea of Corps As-
sociation
Hon. Norman McL. Rogers, Min-
ister of Labor, listed nine reasons
why the Federal Government re-
jected the plan of the Canadian
Corps Association to place 50,000
unemployed youths in vocational
training camps similar to the. C.C.
C. camps in the United States,
for a two-year period.
Mr. Rogers said that the pro-
hibitive cost, estimated at $50,-
000,000, was the primary reason
for the rejection. In addition, the
Federal Administration objected
to the inference "regimentation"
which might be drawn from such
action, he said.
The other reasons Mr. Rogers
listed as: Opposition of labor and
youth organizations; the detrimen-
tal effect of the output of the
camps on private industry; attrac-
tion of youths from farms; inter-
ference with defence plans; dupli-
cation of, existing vocational fac-
ilities; the undesirability of re-
moving young men from normal
contact for two years, and clim-
atic conditions preventing econo-
mic operation of the camps during
winter months.

ian.
Dionne also has pending a suit
in which he claims damages from
Dafoe because the doctor joined the
Saints and Sinners Club of New
York as a "Doctor of Litters."
The quintuplets' guardians are
refraining for the first time iu
months from discussing plans for
the new home. The plans, which
have been the main subject for
consideration at the meetings since
they were first introduced, have
been played in the unfinished bus-
iness files until the litigation is
settled.
through Moses was fulfilled to
them. Jehoshaphat's power and
goodness were expressed in peace
and public works and buildings of
greatness. He saw great benefit
in an alliance with Israel rather
than civil war. Accordingly, the
old feud between the two king-
doms was dropped and Jehosha-
phat made peace with Israel and
cometed • the_ political union by
marrying his son Jehoram to Ath-
aliah, the daughter of Ahab.
Silo Is Needed
For Dairy; Herd
Silage Supplies the Bulk Elem-
ent In A Cow's Feed
Silage is valuable for the dairy
herd because it stimulates the ap-
petite and practically everything
depends upon the dairy cow's ap-
petite. It also furnishes the bulky

ery

enough feed to make her flow of.

it supplements pasture in Summer,,

Canadian Cedar
Camps
England and Wales Utilize
Canadian Wood
Camps built of Canadian cedar,
to be used for schools in peace-
time and as refugee shelters in
-tear-time, are under construction
in England and Wales. The first
will be completed by the end of
August.
The camps are being built in
standardized units. All buildings
are of Canadian cedar with cedar
shingle roofs. Each camp will be
laid out on the site by an archi-
tect.
Construction has begun on four
camps. It is hoped that seven
more will be started almost imme-
diately.

Compromise
By MADGE
Between Radio
Sar en" "
an�
Sometime in April news leaked
out that great arguments were
going on between the networks and
the studios in Hollywood. The stu-
dios claimed that people stayed
home to listen to their screen fav-
orites for nothing, rather than pay
to see and hear them at the thea-
tres. The networks on the con-
trary maintained that radio engage
meats were valuable advertising for
the stars. The matter ended in
a compromise.
Had matters come to a show-
down, there would have been plen-
ty of fire -works. Cecil B. de Milie's
Radio Theatre would have been
pulled off the air; Likewise
Good News. Programs like the
Chase and Sanborn Hour and Bing
Crosby's Hour would have had to
fish elsewhere for their guests.
And Bing Crosby himself would
probably have had to make the su-
preme choice between being a star
of the air or a star of the screen.
