John 13: 34. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. - The Sermon 011 the Mount was delivered in the sum- mer of A.D. 28. The words to the lawyer were spoken on Tuesday, April 4, A.D. 30. The parable of the Good Samaritan was given in November or December, A.D. 29. All the words taken from John's Gospel were uttered on Thursday, April 6, A.D. 30. The epistle of Paul to the Galatians was written A.D. 58. Place. - We do not know the location of the place where the Sermon on the Mount was given. The discourse with the lawyer took place in Jerusalem. The parable of the Good Samaritan was given in Peraea.-. The words taken from John's Gospel were spoken in the upper room of a home in Jerusa- lem. The epistle of Paul to the Galatians was written to the Chris- tians in the Roman province of Galatia, in Asia Minor. 43. We heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy. The Jewish teachers held that an enemy was not a neighbor, and that the com- mandment to love the latter im- plied permission to withhold it from the former. Love Your Enemies 44. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you. "The word "enemies" may be taken in all senses; national, private, religious. Jesus absolutely negatives hatred as inhuman. This may almost be called the most difficult virtue to practise of all those mentioned in the New Testament, at least as re- gards our relationships to others. 45. That ye may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. If God is our Father by our being born again and receiving the Lord Jesus Christ into our hearts, then we shall be able to love our ene- mies because God does. For he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. The heav- enly Father loves his enemies, and sends natural blessings upon them as well as upon his friends. 4G. For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? The publicans were tax - collectors for the Roman govern- ment, and many of them were traitorous Jews 'enriched by cor- rupt practices in collecting taxes. Our Lord reminds his hearers that it is no credit to them if they love those who love them. 47. And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even tht, Gen- tiles the same? Without Moral Blemish 48. Ye therefore shall be per- fect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Perfection in the Old Testament means without moral blemish. It is enjoined in Deut. 18: 13. Here the context defines ' it as perfection in love, which seeks the good of all men. God is perfect because he bestows his favor on all alike. Matt. 22: 34-40. 34. But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had put the •Sadducees to sil- ence, gathered themselves togeth- er. 35. And one of them, a law- yer, asked him a question, trying him. 36. Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law? The Great Commandment 37. And he said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38. This is the great and first com- mandment. If we love God, we will love, his law, we will keep his Canada's Great Winter Sports Many Recreational Advantages Are to be Enjoyed In This Season Canada's winter season usually extends from December until March and offers innumerable at- tractions to the seeker of winter sports.

OLD -COUNTRY RADIO RECEPTION One of the engineering advance- ments of the 1939 Rogers Spread - Band models provides six indi- vidual spread -band dials, each 10" wide with only one dial visible at a time. This feature simplifies tuning, particularly for women. By spreading out each of the four short-wave bands,, from one inch to ten inches, Old -Country rec tion is now easy to tune in.;yr _r out interference. Artie Auerbach law, and our whole life will be one conforming to his holy will. 39. And a second like unto it is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. 40. On these two com- mandments the whole law hang- eth, and the prophets. When love is removed from self to God, then that love will seek the objects of God's love. John 13: 34, 35; 15: 12-14. 34. A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one anoth- er, even as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. The commandment to love was not new for "thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself" (Lev. 19: 18) was part of the Mosaic law. But the motive is new, to love our neigh- bor because Christ has loved us. Love One Another 35. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. 15: 12. This is my command- ment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you. The many commandments referred to in verse 10 are now gathered up in the one new commandment of which the end and purport was that Christians should love one an- other after the pattern of their Master. 13. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14. Ye are my friends, if ye do the things which I command you. Our Lord himself laid down his own life for us. Obedience to the command- ments of Christ brings us into most precious fellowship with Christ. Caribou Move Farther South Scarcity of Feed Seen as Caws Of Big Trek From Arctic Scarcity of feed in the far north- ern tramping grounds of the cari- bou, has driven thousands of the barren -land animals southward. In bands of several hundred the cari- bou are browsing far south of their usual haunts. They have crossed the Hudson Bay Railway at Gillam, 350 miles northeast of The Pas, on their way to feeding grounds along the Nel- son River. Many of the animals are still moving south. Largest movement was reported three weeks ago when the Hudson Bay Railway train was halted to al- low hundreds of the horn -tossing caribou to trot across the track. Passengers' cameras clicked stead- ily and trainmen estimated more than 10,000 caribou were in the herd. For a distance of 125 miles cari- bou artbou tracks were found along the railway. As the Arctic animals made their appearance, the wood- land caribou of the northern area headed farther south. When all the fire alarms fa Diez and Bad Ems, Germany, be- gan violently ringing, all firemen in the two places turned out, only to learn that lightning had set off the alarms. National ee Fitness DIET FL P, GROWTH By Miss Ruth Hartwell, 13.A. Westdale Vocational School, Hamilton, Ont. It is the duty of boys and girls to keep well, not only for their own sakes, but for the sake of those about them, and for the welfare of their country. Build- ing foods are required for the de- velopment and growth of every part of the body. There are three main groups of building foods, Proteins, Minerals and Water with powerful helpers in Vitamins. Good Supply of Protein Protein is indispensable to the building and development of muscle. Protein is necessary to keep young tissues growing, to keep grown tissues in repair, and to replace those wasted by disease. Growing girls and boys must have a protein included in each meal of the day. The proteins are divided into two groups. The important or adequate ones are milk, cheese, eggs, fish, meat, nuts; the helpers are cereals and dried vegetables. Plenty of Minerals Minerals are an important type of building food. Teeth and bones are composed largely of calcium and phosphorus. If these min- erals are not provided in sufficient amounts by the daily meals, the teeth and bones may be improper- ly formed. The stronger the teeth are, the better they can re- sist decay. For dental health, foods rich in calcium and phos- phorus and vitamins A. C. and D. are very important. Children's teeth can be strengthened even in later life if a careful planning of the day's meals are made to in- clude milk, without which a child cannot possibly get enough cal- cium, one pint and a half a day, evaporated milk, cheese, dried vegetables, molasses; whole grain cereals, ice cream, green vege- tables. Add to these, a small amount of cod liver oil. From about the twelfth month and throughout life, some cciarse food should be eaten at each meal, in order to stimulate and strengthen the gums and teeth. Check each meal for something crisp as raw celery, raw carrots and cabbage, apples and other fresh fruit, coarse grain bread and cereals, toast and crusts. A child which lacks sufficient • iron in his meals will ber_ome„1ist= less, lack vitality and look pale. Oxygen is carried to all parts of the body by little cargo boats made from iron, the iron we give our body through our food.

If you have, rest assured your family will be healthy with plenty of energy and vitality to meet the day's fun and work. Liars Are Not Born That Way Liars are developed, not born, psychologists say. , Nobody is born with a tendency to lie. Lying re- sults from some sort of mental or emotional unbalance. People lie when they lack the courage to tell the truth. Inferiority complexes often make people lie to make themselves appear greater than they are. Others lie to make themselves succeed, only to find that it makes them less successful. This bad habit is acquired. It is not born with any of us. st 1 Turkey's Origin Proved Mexican Early Spaniards Found the Fowl In Mexico and Took It Horne The American Wildlife Institute has pursued the turkey, through five centuries of history today, try- ing to run down the nationality of the festive bird. Dipping into a stack of books fil- led with feathery facts, William McCormick, research expert, said: "And make no mistake -the tur- key isn't Turkish either. He's a Mexican! Furthermore, the turkey that we eat today is not the turkey our forefathers shot." The fowl we buy in the markets, he explained, is a combination of the ocellated turkey and the melea- gris gallopavo-a fowl that the ealy Spaniards found in Mexico and took home. This bird strutted around the European markets for years and then it showed up in England, Mc- Cormick added. English literature describes it about 1540.
