God hath chosen thee to be a people for his own possession. Deuteronomy ,7 :6, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING. Place—The passover feast itself was observed only in the land of Goshen, where the dews were living, but the final plague of death among all the • firstborn of course involve the entire land of Egypt, Time—B. C. 1498. 21. Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them,, Draw out, and take you lambs ac- cording to your families, and kill the passover. The word passover is the Hebrew word pesath and means ex- actly what the English translation in- dicates, naively, a passing over, with reference to the passing of the angel of 'death over the homes on whose doorposts blood was sprinkled the night of the exodus. 2.. And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop. "Outside of the Pentateuch, hyssop is mentioned only in 1 Kings 4:33 and Psalm 51:7. The cleansing for which it was used was not only through blood sprinkling with water. Though the plant must have been fa- miliar to Israel in Canaan and at the exodus time, we do not know what was the species of it. From John 19: 29, it may perhaps be inferred that it had a long stalk. The sacred use of it required that it should be fit to be formed into a bunch like a sponge." And dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side -posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. The Iintel is sup- posed to mean a lattice through which it was possible to look in or out of the door. '43, For Jelunah will bass through to melte the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side -posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suf- fer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. 24. And ye shall observe this thing for an or- dinance to thee and to thy sons for ever. The destroyer here is the de- stroying angel. (Cf. 2 Sam. 24:16; Ise, 87:36). 25. And it shall come to pass, when ye are come to the land which Jeho- vah will give you, according as he bath promised, that ye shall keep this service. 26, And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service 27. Tliat ye shall say, it is the sac- rifice of Jehovah's passover, who passed over the houses of the chil- dren of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. The passover feast was given to Israel to be perpetually kept year after year, so that Israel might never forget the wonderful re- demption which God wrought for her by his omnipotent power and by atoning blood in the days when she was helplessly in bondage in a for- eign land. The commands to instruct the children in the generations to fol- low regarding the significance of this memorial feast are especially signi- ficant. For the instruction of chil- dren, see Ex. 10:2; 13:8; Deut. 4:9; 6:7. And the people bowed the head and worshipped. 28. And the chil- dren of Israel went and did so; as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. The attitude of the people in worshipping clearly in- dicates that the whole passover ob- servance on this dreadful, but auspi- cious occasion was not mechanically but reverently entered into. br a rt „3 Conducted by PROFESSOR HENRY C. BELL with the co-operation of the various departments of Ontario Agricultural College Q. — "Can Feeding change the but- terfat tests of milk?" — G. R. Oxford Co. �_-__-_.�-.� ..-- **-,.,.__,,.–�•"-,�-v�-alit/ fed and kept in good- condition will" test at their normal inherited ability. True, these tests may vary a few points from day to day, but will be very close to an average for a com- plete lactation period. On the other hand, under feeding, using poor qua- lity feeds or pasturing on poor grass will lower the butterfat test below the inherited ability of the cow. And when any or ail of these faulty diets are corrected the test will return to normal, and, in this way, feeding in- creases the butterfat test by bringing it back to normal but will not per- manently increase it beyond this point. (Prof. G. Raithby, Department of Animal Husbandry, O.A.G.) Q. "Why is iodine necessary in the ration?" — B.T., Bruce Co. A — Iodine is necessary to prevent goitre in new born calves, colts and lambs and to prevent hairlessness in new born pigs. Feed commercial io- dized salt or home mixed iodized salt prepared by mixing one ounce of po- tassium iodide with 300 pounds of salt. First mix the iodine with about ten pounds of salt and then add this to the remainder. Keep in a dry place and do no mix too much at a time. '(Prof. S. Raithby, Dept. of Animal Husbandry, O.A.C.) Q. "Is it necessary to wash, and scald a cream separator bowl twice daily in order to produce a special grade cream?" — R.R., Halton Co. A — The slime which forms on the separator discs contains large num- bers of bacteria and other impurities of milk and if allowed to remain will seriously contaminate fresh milk com- ing in contact . with it.. Undoubtedly, the cleanliness of a separator is a factor in production of special grade, pent efficient skimming from a mach- ine that has been standing eight or ten hours with the slime oaked be- tween the discs. Experimential work on the effect of washing the separator after using as compared with washing once a day only, upon cream quality with other factors being equal, resulted in an invariable drop in grade from a special to a No. 1 grade during three days collecting cream. Also these re- sults showed a dirty separator to skim only one-half as efficiently as a clean one. (W. H,. Sproule, Prof. of Dairying, O.A.C. Q. — "Should fresh. cream be pre - cooled before mixing with old cream in the storage tank?" — S. B., Huron Co. A. — In the production of churning cream of high quality it is essential that the natural flavour of cream be maintained. Bacterial growth and fer- mentation, if allowed to develop bring about abnormwl flavours. In order to prevent bacterial growth, tempera- ture is the all important factor. If warm cream after separating be ad- ded to the already cooled. cream in the storage tank, there will be suc- cessive increases in temperature with the resultant development of undes- irable flavours and souring. There- fore, it is important to 'cool each lot of fresh cream to 55 degrees F. be- fore adding it to the storage eat that ought to bo maintained at 50 degrees F. (W. H. Serpi_ le, Prof. of Dairying, O.A.C. Early friar r cl e There is a measure of human wis- dom in the opinion expressed by Dr. Nathan W. Winklernan, professor of neuropathology, University of Penn- sylvania that 25 is the best age for young people to get married. Save for certain normal age fluctuations occasioned by prevailing economic conditions and the rather important matter of mutual consent of the par- ties contemplating the step, 25 is the approximate .average age for wed- dings. What the professor stressed, therefore, was not a precise time for marriage, but the desirability of ear- ly matings. Economic conditions rule with a stern' hand in early life, and young folks frequently do invite martial dis- aster by solidly ignoring this import- ant factor in planning for home- building, Perhaps Dr. Winkleman is D --B right in advocating that young brides hold their jobs, if they have any al- though perhaps he sticks out his neck for trouble by this offering. Lessons learned by the young bride in extra- marital employment are invaluable aids to happiness She obtains a first-hand knowledge of the trials which beset her husband as a provid- er ancl if she loves him as she must, she will not contri'w.te in any way to the folly of a husband wor',„ing him- self to death at 50 and leavinee a rich widow to hnae a swell time spending his dough. New Treatment To Keep Legsas otth NEW YORK. -With the arrival of the bathing season legs are on par- ade again. On the bearh you can't but be conscious of an unfortunate growth of hair. So, if you feel that your whole summer is going to be ruined unless you got rid of it, there '''is a new treament to remove hair Iron the legs. Proof That ” A 8equt is Prepared' Maybe reaching for more whenone's plate is lo ailed is bad manners, but it is good preparedness. Walter Lorek knows his fellow scouts and digs in fo r more during a meal at the Washington, D.C., Boy Scout Jamboree. Painless, and successful not only in retarding any follow-up growths, the new treatment is given in the beauty salon of a leading department store. It takes several treatments, starting with the application of a de -sensi- tizing lotion, so it's wise to get start- ed early. After the skin surface has been desensitized and dried with an- tiseptic .powder, a pink patented compound is applied at a little high- er than body temperature. The pink- ish paste remains for a while. Then they remove it with an astringent, and cover the leg surface with a pow- der foundation. After several applications the hair is out. If it comes back it will be in a fine light growth that isn't stubby as it is after shaving. And the treat- ment's harmlessness is attested by hospital testimonials where it has• been used successfully on patients. Florida has no mountains. The greatest variation in altitude in that State is about 300 feet. About 08 per cent of Denmark's annual production of milk is consum- ed in the manufacture of butter. A modern railway engine contains 30,004 parts. The latest available estimate places Canada's forest resources at 273,656 million cubic feet of standing timber made up of 425,250 million feet board measure of sawn timber and 1,746,639 thousand cords of pulpwood ties, poles and other sawn materials. • Escape From Heat These days of broiling . -sun are tough on city y oungsters.

Radio By VIRGINIA DAL The loyal notion picture fans of the country do not want any substi" , tute for the late Jean Harlow. Let- ters, telegrams 'and phone calls of protest poured into the Metro -Gold- wyn-Mayor studio when it was an nounced soon after her death that her unfinished picture "Saratoga" would bo re -filmed with a newcomer named Rita Johnson in her role. In no uncertain terms the public demanded that Jean's .last picture either be released in its unfinished state or kept from view. Decision on the matter is being postponed, but when the public takes such a whole- hearted stand on any question, you can be sure that the studio will not run the risk o offending them. "Sara- toga" will probably never be seen. * * * Loretta Young's household is just about the happiest, busiest establish- ment in all Holla wood just now. She has adopted two little girls Jane, aged three and Judy, not - quite two,. and is busily conferring With architects ' about adding a wing to h e r house. Just to add to the air. of Old Home Week,. her sister,. Sally Blane, and Sally's husband Norman Foster have come to stay at Loretta's house while they. rebuild theirs. * * * All the time that Irene Harvey was' under contract to M -G -M, the execu- tives just couldn't see her when a good role in a big picture canie up for casting. She married Allan Jones, her contract expired, and it looked as if she meant to retire from the screen. She was just waiting for the right part, though. Along came the en. terprising Grand National company with a role for her in "The Girl Said No," audiences raved about her at the preview, and what company rush- ed to get her services then, do you suppose? None other than her old studio. Loretta Young * * * Lily Pons is very busy these days with her radio program and` au ex- tensive concert tour, to say nothing of her frenzied trips up to her borne in Connectient tto , see how the gar- den is doing, but she keeps in touch with the R -K -O studio every day to get reports on the plans for her next picture. * * * It is all of a year now since Jack Dempsey and his restaurant were shown in a motion picture, typifying the very centro of New York sporting and night life, so M -G -M is going to remedy that omission right away. He and .his headquarters will appear in "Big City" which stars $ encer Tra- cey and Luise Rainer. Jack won't go to Hollywood, though; his scenes will be made in a studio near New York. * * * The very best picture of the week, and a frothy light extravaganza for a warm evening it is too, is "Wo- man chases Man." Mirian Hopkins is the star and dear old Charles Win - nig er inniger plays a giddy role de- lightfully. T h e picture is a farce that verges on slapstick most of the , and McCreatimeplays Joel the thankless role of t h e one fairly sensible human in the piece. It isn"t, frankly, nearly so good a picture as Claudette Colbert's grand comedy "I Met Him in Paris" -- but until that superb bit of entertainment comes your way, "Woman Chases Man" will keep you amused. * * * ODDS and ENDS — Grace Moore postponed starting her noxt picture for two! weeks so that her leading man, Melvyn Douglas, could go to the Salzburg Festival, where his wifo is going to sing . .
