LESSON VI,
Christian Character and Peace—
Colossians 3:147
Golden Text—And let the peace of
Christ rule in your hearts, to the
Which also ye were called in one body.
—Colossians 3:15.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING.
Time—About A.D. 62.
Place—the epistle was written
from 'Rome to the city of Colosse,
which was located about one hundred
miles east of Ephesus, in Asia Minor.
The tragedy of the human race
without Christ is that upward asplea-
tions have no definiteness and are
never fulfilled, Man continues to
long for higher things, and, at the
same time, is conscious that the pow-
ers which drag him down are greater
than the power of any longings to
live on a higher plane. What man
longs for, the Lord Jesus Christ
came to give, to make it definite, and'
sure.
Things That Are Above
1. If then ye were raised together
with Christ. That Christ was, in his
ewn body, raised from the dead, is
a fundamental truth in the Christian
faith. How, we may ask, were we
ever raised with him? Actually, we
were raised together, with him in the
hour in which we believed in him.
Seek the things that are above, where
Christ is, seated on the right hand
of God. We are "to search them
out as they are revealed to us in the
Holy Scriptures and to be looking for
and accepting them in our experi-
ence and possession." "Seek, above
all, assured communion with God,
real work for God, frequent rest in
the felt presence of God, through and
beyond all these, the final reward of
the soul in God, but seek also that
which is highest, purest, truest, nob-
lest, even in the sphere of nature.
2. Set your mind on the things
that are above, not on the things
that are upon the earth. "Jesus Christ
is the summing up of 'the things that
are above'; therefore if a man wants
to love Jesus Christ, he must think
about him. Seeking the things that
are above will come, and will only
come when mind, and heart, and in-
ward life are occupied with him.
Each man's higher life begins in a ,
death. As Christ rose from the dead,
so also do his members rise from the
death of sin to a life on the highest
plane, a life in heavenly places." Be-
cause our life is hid, it is incapable
of being touched or hurt by any evil
power-
4. When Christ, who is our lfe,
shall be manifested, then shall ye
also with `him be manifested in glory.
"Our Christ -life is not always to be
hidden, but is to come forth in full
and glorious manifestation.
5. Put to death therefore your
members which are upon the earth;
fornication, uncleanness, passion,
svil desire, and covetousness, which
is idolatry; 6. For which things' sake
cometh the wrath of God upon the
sons of disobedience: 7. Wherein ye
also once walked, when ye lived in
these things. The verb here trans-
lated "put to death" means,, literally,
"to reduce to a state of death," or
"like death"; a state helpless, inop-
erative. "The Christian, in the pow-
er of his hidden life in Christ, is thus
to deal with his sins. The believer,
reminded of his resources and of the
will of God, is now, with full purpose,
to 'give to death' all his sins.
8. But now do ye also put them all
away, How difficult it is to put off
something which has become a habit!
When we have learned a wrong way
of doing a thing, it is a fearfully
heavy business to unlearn it. Anger,
wrath, malice, railing. "The first
word refers to the outburst, or . the
vice of indignation bordering on re-
venge; the second word refers to the
violent emotion that boils within.
The third refers to calumnious de-
nunciation, to which anger so often
prompts." Shameful speaking out of
your mouth. This phrase often de-
notes generally foul or abusive lan-
guage, and as it is so closely con-
nected with the passion of anger
such may be its meaning here.
The New Man
9. Lie not one to another; seeing
that ye have put off the old man
with his doings. 10. And have put
on the new man. The old man is
simply the state of an unregenerated
man, a sinner guilty under the sen-
tence of God's law. The new man is
the same person with a new life in
him which is contrary to the old life,
i.e., the old man lives subject to the
dominion of sin, but the new man
lives under the sovereignty of God.
Regeneration is an act of God through
his Holy Spirit, and is something that
no man can accomplish. That is be-
ing renewed. We are in the place
where we can be renewed when we
keep in communion wnh God. Unto
knowledge. "A knowledge not alone
of the intellect, but of the heart; a
knowledge which includes faith and
experience as well. Every item of
true knowledge gained is growth and
the conquest of evil." After the im-
age of him that created him. "As
in the first creation man was made in
the image of God, so in the new cre-
ation.
11. Where there cannot be Greek
and Jew, circumcision and uncircum-
eision, barbarian, Scythian, bondman,
freeman; but Christ is all, and in all.
There are no distinctions among
Christians as far as their standing is
concerned, or God's ultimate purpose
for them, either national, ceremonial,
intellectual, or social.
12. Put on therefore, as God's
elect. The elect of God are those
r-hom God has appointed to receive
eternal life. Joseph Parker once
said that a man could know if he
were elected of God if he was certain
he had elected the Lord Jesus Christ
as his Saviour. Holy and beloved, a
heart of compassion. A companion-
ate person is one who suffers with
those who are in need. For two beau-
tiful pictures of true compassion,
see Luke 10:33, and Luke 15:20.
Kindness. "The character which of-
fers sympathy and invites confid-
ence." Lowliness. The attitude of a
soul which has lost its pride in the
discovery of mercy of its salvation."
Meekness. An attitude of submis-
siveness toward God. Longsuffering.
13. Forbearing one another, and for-
giving each other, if any man have a
complaint against any. Forgiving
and forebearing "explain the opera-
tion of meekness and longsufering,
forbearing to be inpatient and to
avenge one's self, and, on the con-
trary, to be forgiving," Even as the
Lord forgave you, so also do ye. "A
heart touched and softened by pardon
will be a heart apt to pardon."
A Life of Love
14. And above all these things, put
on love, which is the bond of perfect-
ness. The apostle says that, above

1 Q. "I have ten (10) colonies of
bees and would appreciate informa-
tion as to how they may be success-
fully wintered."—K.G., Halton Co.
A. —There are three important
points to keep in mind:
(a) A strong colony of young:
bees
(b) Abundance of food.
(c) Protection from the prevailing
winds, as well as individual in-
sulation.
.Annual requeening is the best
method to insure young bees for
winter. A young queen will lay later
in the fall than an older one, which
means that the bees will have more
vitality, and be better able to with-
stand the winter and build up a
strong colony the following spring.
All weak and queenless colonies
should be united with stronger col-
onies.
Honey or sugar syrup inay be used
for winter feed. At the present t
it is recommended that bees be
tered in a double brood charabe
•with, the tombs in the top chamber.
full of honey. Single -storey colonies
should have the combs from " two-
thirds to three-quarters full of honcste
If it is necessary to feed sfifar syrup,
mix two parts of cane or beet sugar
to one part of boiling water.
An apiary should be located so
that it will be sheltered from the lore -
veiling winds. In addition to this,
colonies should be insulated with
shavings, dried leaves, etc. Four
inches (4") of insulation is provided
on the sides, and from six inches
(6") to eight inches (8") on top.
This material may be supported
everything else in importance and
power, the new man must manifest a
life of love. "Love is the product of
the other graces, the fruit of their,
ripe development. Love itself is, at
the same time, the highest element of
this perfection and forms the nearest
resemblance to him of whom it is
said, 'God is love.' No grace is corn
plete without love."
15. And let the peace of Christ
rule in your hearts, to the which also
ye were called in one body; and be
ye thankful. The peace which Christ
makes for us with God. The peace,
in other words, that fills us with se-
renity and tranquility in all our re-.,
lotions with men. We are to let this •
peace rule in our hearts.
16. Let the word of Christ. The
word of Christ is, that great mes-
sage which Christ himself made pos-
sible by his life, death, and resur-
rection, i.e., the gospel, the good
news, the message from God through
his Son, who is the word of God.
Dwell in you richly. The word of
Christ is to inhabit us, finding in us
its very home. In all wisdom teach-
ing and admonishing one another
with psalms and hymns and spiritual
songs, singing with grace in your'
hearts unto God. 'Psalms' seems to -
refer specifically to the songs of Da-
vid;
'hymns' to songs of praise com-
posed by Christians; 'odes' to forms
of song with no limitation except
that they shall be spiritual. It was
to be a daily, life-long service of
song, but always as teaching and a3-
'nionishing.
17, And whatsoever ye do, in word
or in deed, do all in the name of the
Lord Jesus. "The name of a man is
that which distinguishes, identifies,
sums him up, and the name of Christ
is all that Christ is as man, as God,
and as the God -man. Giving thanks
to God the Father through him. All
the blessings which we have come
from God through the Lord Jesus
Christ, and all of our thanks should
be given through the Lord Jesus
Christ.

3. Q. "I think I made a mstake
by putting Muriate of Potash on my
potato ground. I mixed it with 4-
8-10 fertilizer and put it in the row
with the seed. The potatoes were
very small and most of them had a
deep pink skin. Would it have been
alright if I had put Sulphate of Pot-
ash in with the 4-8-10? Four rows
in which I did not put any extra Pot-
ash the potatoes were good quality
and size. A.M., Wentworth Co.
A.—Regarding your inquiry as to
potato fertilizer. it would appear to
me that you over -did the application
of Potash, especially since you report
that where you used the 4-8-10 alone
the potatoes were of good quality and
size. You see the 10 per cent at the
end of 4-8-10 is Potash. This is a
fairly heavy application in itself, es-
pecially if you put it on at 500 to
750 lbs. per acre. By putting the
fertilizer in the row there is a dan-
ger that you get it too close to the
seed potato piece. There is no evid-
ence to show that Sulphate of Potash
is less chemically active than Muriate
of Potash. As a matter of fact, I
believe it is a little more chemically
.active so that the dirterence in the
types of Potash will not have been
responsible for your unsatisfactory
results.

Beekeepers in Canada number

Well, well, here we are again, with
more gossip about the people you
hear on the radio. The informality
of Bing Crosby's program on Thurs-
day nights at 10 o'clock is more than
excellent showmanship. No at-
tempt is made to run through the
show in its entirety before it goes on
the air. Each spot is rehearsed and
timed separately, If any cutting is
necessary to compress the program
to fit the one hour limit, it is done
just before the troupe goes on the
air. Add to this Crosby's inimitable
style of spontaneity, Bob Burns' Van
Beuren drawl and the sparkling chain
of guests, it's no wonder that the
Kraft Music Hall ranks tops in pro-
grams.
Here is a little-known fact about
NBC's Lowell Thomas: It seems as
if the broadcaster is an adopted
brave of the Mohawks. The English
translation of his Indian name is
"Hot Coal." Maybe it's because his
newscasts have always been hot
stuff.

A Program's Background
In order to make our column a
little out of the ordinary, we shall
endeavor to give you a little insight
of what happens in the background
of a radio program. Each week we
shall try to describe a different per-
son who is responsible for the radio
entertainment you hear, and about
whom you never hear. Today we
shall give you a brief summary of
the headaches of one of radio's super -
salesmen, Allan MacTaggart, of
Grow and Pitcher Broadcasting
Agencies, commonly called by all
friends and enemies, Buster. Cute,
don't you think? His history is one
of daring. Bus. has been in and out
of radio for some ten years, and is

widely recogn zed as a merchandis-
ing brain and a creator of advertis-
ing campaigns. In a police line-up he
would be quoted as being 5 feet, 10
inches tall, weight, 145, age 32, red
hair, and a jovial personality. WJR,
Detroit has carried a program series
in which he was known as "Clip" of
the twins, Clip and Save. He was
advertising manager of Sehulte's
United Department Stores, the Ajax
Tire Corporation, Wisconsin, for
whom he conducted the first field
campaign for tires, Scott -McHale
Shoes and McCormick Biscuits.
You, as the listener, demand en-
tertainment from your radio, but this
entertainment must be paid for, and
Buster is one of the guys who looks
for the guys who are contemplating
advertising, and tries to sell them
the idea of supplying you with the
entertainment you want. To use
Buster's own words, "it's as easy to
do this as walking across the Atlan-
tic Ocean." If anything goes wrong
with the program, it's Buster who
gets merry heck from the sponsor. If
you do not buy the sponsor's goods,
it's another kick in the ear for him.
But Buster, being a happily married
man, is not used to taking kicks, and
makes sure that none come to him.
And so you see, dear readers, that
behind the radio program there is
much more than music and entertain-
ment. Next week we'll try to give
you the life of a radio production
man.
