LESSON XII
THE SEPULCHRE: TRIUMPH
OVER DEATH. ----Matthew 27: 57
28: 15.
GOLDEN TEXT - Now loath
Christ been raised from the dead,
the first -fruits of them that are
asleep. 1 Cor, 15: 20.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. -Christ's burial oceurrec
some time before six p.m. on Fri-
day, April 7; the visit of the wo-
men to the sepulchre occur-
red early Sunday morning, April
9, A.D. 30.
Place. -Calvary and the near -
tee tomb of Joseph of Arimathaea
were both a short distance outside
the walls of .Jerusalem.
57. Ann when even was come,
°,here came a rich man from Ari-
::nathaea:, named Joseph, who also
'i imself was Jesus' disciple: 58.
';,his man went to Pilate, and ask-
ed for the body of Jesus. Then
Pilate commanded it to be given
ap. Joseph of Arimathaea was ,a
pian of means of refined •anind, a
:member ef the Jewish Sanhedrin,
and held in good repute among his
fellow counsellors. It was this man
with his mind already enlightened
by Jesus, and his heart drawn to
him, who stood under the cross of
Christ. Remorse or his past
shrinking smote him, he forth-
with sought the body of Jesus
to bury it in his own grave, pre-
pared for his own costly burial.
Laid in the Sepulchre
59. And Joseph took the body,
and wrapped it in a clean linen
cloth, 60. and laid it in his own
new tomb, which he had hewn out
in the rock: and he rolled a great
stone to the door of the tomb, and
departed. The body was laid in a
:oculus in the tomb, formed by a
slab of stone places across one
side of the tomb so as to form a
coffin -like recess behind it. The
entombment of our Lord is a re-
markable fulfillment of Isa. 53: 9,
which foretold that the Messiah
would make his grave "with the
rich in his death."
61. And Mary MYIagdalene was
there, and the other Mary, sitting
over against the sepulchre. The
Mary mentioned here together
with Mary Magdalene.,, must be
Mary the mother of James and
Joses (see v. 56). These were the
women who had ministered to Jes-
us throughout the three years of
his public ministry.
Britain's Multi -Aircraft Guns Offer Triple Threat
A brace of multiple anti-aircraft machine guns look skyward from
the bridge of one of the British navy's newest racing motor torpedo
boats, of which Britain now has a large fleet on coastal duty. The boats,
capable of great speed, are armed with torpedoes for use against sur-
facecraft; depth charges for dealing with submarines and these guns
for taking care of attack from the air.
Christ And The Finds
Before the first faint hope of dawn could lay
Its slender fingers on the purple sky,
Christ issued from His tomb on Easter Day
And passed the sleeping soldiers softly by.
The birds, so early waking from their sleep,
Roused in their nests the way Ile went along;
Knowing the promise that He rose to keep,
They meant to greet their Master with a song.
He laid His fingers to His lips, and turned
To indicate the guards, heads drowsy -bent,
And then He smiled, but in His eyes there burned
Rich pleasure at the little birds' intent.
So, long ago, Christ walked before the light
In Joseph's garden, -heralded by none;
Watched over by the feathered host at night,
He went His way, The miracle was done.

NEXT: TELEVISION
Television is on the way slowly
but surely. In the New York
area there are some 2,000 tele-
vision receiver owners, with a po-
tential audience of about 10,000.
But don't let this excite you into
buying a television set just yet.
Did you ever consider just what
television would mean??? Suppose
they decide to televize a drama
once a week for some sponsol
like the current Monday night
theatre. They'd have to get it to-
gether in a week, yet Hollywood
will spend a year making a movie.
If it becomes possible to get all
sport activities like hockey, box-
ing and so on, who will go, and
can the sport survive without fans
to pay the shot at the box office?
Television will make changes in
our activities that are not even
dreamed of yet.
DRAMA ON THE AIR
The radio offers many excellent
dramas -but the other day while
doing a little dial exploring we
carne on one that in our mind
ranks with the Lux theatre of the
air -and it had no top names in
the cast either. The program was

POP --Picking Up
sees were gathered together unto
Pilate, 63. saying, Sir, we remem-
bed what that deceiver said while
he was yet alive, After three days
I rise again. 64. Command there-
fore that the sepulchre be made
sure until the third day, lest hap-
ly his disciples come and steal him'
away, and say unto the people,
He is risen from the dead: and
the last error will be worse than
the first. 65. Pilate said unto
them, Ye have a guard: go, make
it as sure as ye can. 66. So they
went, and made the sepulchre
sure, sealing the stone, the guard
being with them.
The Jewish authorities of Jer-
usalem apparently could not rest
after Jesus was dead. Haunted by
his prophetic words, in which he
declared that he would rise from
the dead on the third day, they
went back to Pilate, requesting
hat a guard .be placed at the sep-
ulclue. The Pharisees used polit-
ical arguments to influence Pil-
ate. They contended that, if the
disciples persuaded people that
Jesus had risen from the dead,
they might cause a far more ser-
ious rising than had occurred at
the triumphal entry, in conse-
quence that Jesus was the Mess-
iah.
The Resurrection
Matt. 28: 1. Now late on the
sabbath day, as it began to dawn
toward the first day of the week;
came Mary Magdalene and the.
other Mary to see- the sepulchre.
It was not until they were well
on their way that it occurred to
them to ask how the' great stone,
Which they had seen rolled to the
door, was to be removed. The dif-
ficulty, however, melted away al-
most as soon as it was realized.
The stone was already gone.
Movie -Going
Jury Humored
"May we have the evening
off?" a juryman asked at Mon-
treal last week when the trial
of Romeo Foucault on a charge
of murder was adjourned for
the day.
"I suppose you want to go
to the movies," said Mr, Justice
Wilfrid Lazure.
"Yes" the juror said.
"Well, if the police captain
can pick a picture that is fit-
ting for you to see, you can
go," the judge decided after
the request was discussed with
counsel.
2. And behold, there was a
great earthquake; for an angel of
the Lord descended from heaven,
and came and rolled away the
stone, and sat upon it. 3. Iris ap-
pearance was as lightning, and his
raiment white as snow: 4. and for
fear of him the watchers did
quake, and became as dead men.
5. And the angel answered and
said unto the women, Fear not ye;
for I know that ye seek Jesus,
who hath been crucified. 6. He is
not here; for he is risen, even as
he said. Come, see the place where
the Lord lay.
Had the tomb remained sealed
and guarded, the world would
have had stronger grounds for
denying the • resurrection and
would have claimed as it does to-
day, with far greater force, that
our Lord's subsequent appear-
ances were merely spiritualistic,
Farm Forum
(Conducted by Prof. Henry G. Bell,
of the Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph, assisted by other members
of the O.A.C. faculty)
Q. r have a 50 -acre farm of sandy
soil. As I have not enough barnyard
fertilizer for both places, I am haul-
ing the fertilizer to the sandy soil
and intend getting limo for clay
land. Will you please let me know
if this is a wise thing to do? If so,
will you plaese advise me what
quantities of lime to use? If there
is a better method of enriching the
soil for this year's crop will you
please let me know, if it is not
more expensive? - S. R., Dufferin-
Simcoe.
A. You are doing well to have
the manure put on. the lighter soil.
It may be that the heavier clay soil
would benefit materially from a
light application of manure.
Regarding applying lime to clay
soil, I would say that you should
have the soil tested first to find if
Lime is required. If the soil is al-
ready neutral or alkaline, it is a
loss of time and money to put Lime
on it. IC you will have a sample of
soil taken according to the instruc-
tions on pages 29 to 32 of the en-
olosed pamphlet and forward the
saime to the Dept, of Chemistry, at
O.A.C., Guelph, we will have it test-
ed
ested and' will then be able to let you
know whether or not Lime is re-
quired. Lime is not a manure or a
plantfood, it is simply a soil condi-
tioner.
onditioner.
n a. a
Q. I wonder if you would give me
some information regarding sulph-
ur as an acidifier of soil. I have
considerable difficulty with alka-
line water, although aluminum sul-
phate will correct it. I have been
told that sulphur has a longer last-
ing
asting effect than aluminum sulphate,
but am not familiar with the pro-
pensities of sulphur.
Any advice you would give me in
this matter will be greatly apprec-
iated. W. G., York Oo.
A. I would say that Flowers of
Sulphur used at rates of 300 to 600
lbs. per aore will produce desirable
acidity in controlling scab on pota-
toes. If the Sulphur is broadcast
;just after the land is plowed, and
before disctng, Sulphur can be add-
ed most effectively. One experi-
menter advises that on soils that
lack Sulphur -oxidizing bacteria, It
is advisable to use inoculated Sul-
phur.
During 1938 the nine dredges
operated in the Yukon Consolidat-
ed Gold Corporation handled 8,-
550,000 cubic yards of gravel,
which yielded 60,055 fine ounces
of gold and 14,413 fine ounces
of silver.
