THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. — All the events of this
chapter occurred iu the autumn of
A.D. 28.
Place. — The preaching and
teaching ministry of Christ here
recorded occurred at the Sea of
' Galilee; the incident pertaining to
the coming of his mother and
•brethren is to be located some-
where in. Galilee itself; Gadara was
on the eastern shore of the Sea
of Galilee; the miracle of healing
and of raising the daughter of Tair-
us occurred in the city of Caper-
natem, at the north end of the Sea
of Galilee.
From this lesson we should de-
rive a deeper and more solemn con-
ception of the profound significance
and sanctity of Memel' life, and the
supreme importance of diligently
giving heed to the word of God, and
then being continually exercised
to see that his word, once lodged
in our hearts, is never crowded out
by the things of this world, things
that can so easily choke one's
spiritual life and bring about a dry -
nese of sou], a restlessness and dis-
satisfaction with life.
In this chapter we have one of
the most charming pictures of the
private life of our Lord and his
disciples to be' found in any of the
Gospel records.
Christ's Ministry of Teaching
The inexhaustible parable of the
Sower is also found, with some
variations in Matt. 13 and Mark 4.
Lake 8: 4. And when a great mul-
titude came together, and they of
every city resorted unto him, he
spoke by a parable; (a parable
might be defined as an earthly
story with a heavenly meaning).
5. The sower went forth. to sow
his seed; and es he sowed, some
fell by the wayside: and it was
trodden under foot, and the birds
of the heaven devoured It. 6, And
other fell on the rock; and as soon
as it grew, it withered away, be-
cause it had no moisture. 7. And
other tell amidst the thorns; and
the thorns grew with it, and chok-
ed It. 8. And other fell into the
good ground, and grew, and brought
forth fruit a hundred fold. As he
said these things, he cried, He
that hath ears to hear, let him
hear, As far as we can determine,
the seed in all four cases was of
the same quality; the different
consequences of sowing in four
different places resulted from the
different influences exerted npon
the seed when sown.
The Seed Is the Word
9, And his disciples asked him
What this parable might be. 10. And
:he said, 'Canto you it is given to
know the mysteries of the king-
dom of God; but to the rest in par-
ables; that seeing they may not
see, and hearing they may not un-
derstanzi. Our Lord here means that
many of his heavers are not either
''"`xiereeiving z7r • understnndeng, al•
though they are seeing his deeds
I and words: 11, Naw the parable Is
this: The( seed is the word of God,
While all word.s,'dven of men, which
are better than mere words, are
as seeds, able to take root in their
minds and hearts who hear therm,
Have germs in them which only
uufokt by degrees; hovw eminent -
1y ,mast this be true of the words
sof God. The seed o3' the word,
fY l'Ct!Ty transforms and reneWe whelz
it falls on receptive ground. 12. And
those by the way side are they
that have heard; then cometh the
devil, and taketh away the word
from their heart, that they may not
believe and be saved. The ears
have let the word in, but before it
can accomplish its work in the
hearts of these hearers it is taken
away by the birds of doubt. Not
to believe, not to trust the word
after having heard it, separates a
man from all its saving power,
leaves the sinner lost, more hope-
lessly than before.
Poor and Good Ground
13. And those on the rock are
they who, when they have heard,
receive the word with Joy; and
these have no root, who for a while
belive, and in time of temptation
fall away. These here spoken of
are those who stand off, lose In-
tere.st, stop coming to church, drop
out of sight. The "season of trial"
becomes a season of temptation for
these superficial, emotional people.
14. And that which fell among the
thorns, these are they that have
heard, and as they go on their way
they are choked with cares and
riches and pleasures of this life,
and bring no fruit to perfection.
The man represented here has not
made clean work of his religion.
He has received the good seed, but
has forgotten something has to be
grubbed up and cast out as well
as something to be taken In, if he
would grow the fair fruits of Chris-
tian character. He probably has cut
down the thorns, but has left their
roots or seeds where 'they were.
He has not turned the world out of
his heart. This man keeps up his
Christian name to the end; but
his real spiritual life has long ago
been suffocated by the other
growth,
15. And that in the' good ground,
these are such as in an honest and
good heart, having heard the word,
hold it fast, and bring forth fruit
with patience. The fruitful hearer
must not only bring an honest and
good heart; he must keep the word.
Again it is not the amount of
knowledge you have,• but the use
you put it to; it is not the number
of good sayings you have heard
and can repeat that will profit
you, but the place in year heart
you have given them, and the place
iu the actions of your daily life.
Gold From Ocean
Gold has occasionally been ex-
tracted from the sands on the sea-
shores of New South Wales and
Queensland, It is supposed that
the metal was contained in sill: -
merged rocks on the coast, which
have been brokenby the violent
action of waves and ultimately
deposited in its present form
among the sand.
Platinum and uranium have
also been obtained from the same
source.

AROUND THE DIAL
One of the better war dramas
heard over the air today is .of-
fered by the CBC network on
Thursday nights at 8.30 when the
stirring piece -- They Shall Not
Pass — is presented. This drama
from the pen of William Strange
is a worthwhile contribution to
the world's applause for British
valor—and is a program that you
will not want to miss.
Radio is certainly wonderful!
Because of the world's system of
time zones—some folks heard the
results of the November fifth
United States elections on No-
vember fourth! Quick Watson!
The net and two strong guards.
Folks in this part of Ontario
will be glad to know that Infor-
mation Please — the best quizz
show on the air — will be heard
in the future over WBEN on Fri-
day evenings at 8.30 (standard).
Due to changes in stations car-
rying this show during the cur-
rent season Ontario folks have
been having trouble picking up
the program of Clifton Fadiman,
John Kieran, F. P. Adams and
the other bright minds.
Cecil. B. DeMille's Radio
Theatre, heard from CFRB on
Monday nights at ten, is one of
the best 60 -minute programs on
I 1
the radio schedules. Top notch
plays done by stars of the stage
and screen lift Radio Theatre
above the crowd -- and give the
public first rank entertainment.
Talk along the radio grape-
vine is that Bing Crosby is try-
ing to buy the Boston Red Sox
baseball team.
The Chicago Opera Company
will be heard over the • Mutual
chain — WOR-WLWWGR —
each Monday night at 11.15
(standard) in a series that will
include Pagliacoi, La Traviata,
Lucia de Lammermoor, Die Wal-
kure and Aida. The capable op-
era stars that will be heard in
these programs are among the
best in operatic work today,
' Recordmended; The M i 11 s
Brothers are recording again and
if you like smooth, sweet, zingy
harmony with that touch of
"oomph" that makes these boys
distinctive from anything on the
air, you'll like their new wax-
ings. If we sound over -enthusia-
stic, forgive us; we're crazy about
"those Mills Brothers dies .
Bunny Berigan has dipped into
the files and come out with an
2.r angement of ' "Ain't S h e

"BRITAIN WILL SURVIVE" -- PADEREWSKI
"Britain will survive. But if .Britain dies so dies America," Jan
Ignace Paderewski, greatest of all pianists and ane -time president of
Poland, told members, of the press who were on hand to greet him as
he arrived in New York as a refugee on his 80th birthday. On hand to
greet Paderewski was Anthony Biddle, U.S. ambassador to Poland.

quite a hunter.
He took part in a doer hunt
this month for the first time
and shot a doe through the neck

Tho doe ran 100 yards after being
shot, then toppled over dead.
The feat took place in the Ma-

extra bit of dash — Harold was
