'k With the cunning of a nine-year- • old, now he takes his cue from his t' father. It is disrupting the whole " household, and driving the wife 'o desperation. A stepmother's life is often harder than it need be. If she has her bus - band's appreciation and support, however, her problems are dimin- ished. Every husband owes his wife these, and twrill be happier himself if he gives them freely. Anne Hirst 1 is here to advise you on any •prob- lem. Write her at Box 1, 123 Eight- eenth Street.

IE' GINGER ' Gv rcd.ol.ir\e. 0 Cl&PlAc fust recently I have wondered so often how many people are likely to get "radio flu." And the reason I wonder is because I have come to the conclusion that flu can be spread in tiro ways—by germs and by ad- vertising—and it is my guess that radio propaganda will do more to spread the present epidemic than the germs themselves. The power of suggestion is tremendous. Not that radio broadcasters actually sug- gest that people should go out of their way to entice the .flu virus to their homes but they do imply that the epidemic is becoming so widespread that to avoid it is nest to an imposibility. Naturally it is very difficult for nervous people to stop getting jittery when, •with . every newscast, they bear full de- tails as to how the flu is spreading and how many have died as a re- sult, Health authorities have stepped a in and closed schools and'places of.;• entertaiiinient in some •districts=. why in heaven's name don't they . step in and stop this insidious flu propaganda?? Creating an atmos- phere of fear lowers any person's resistance to whatever kind of germ.' may be floating around in tlleit;',. vicinity. Far better to belong to the Cone school of thought which takes` as its text: "Every day in every wayaTMg_' am getting better and better.' Even the most ambitious bug needs •' plenty of persistence when. he en- counters that kind of defence. Well, welt—the \tinter is getting ate ay -•--first thing we know we shall be thinking of spring, Actually the whiter has gone far too Quickly for any liking. 1 haven't got half the ' per said to me afterwards: "If I things done t had planned on doing'had had to go back up the hill for during the winter months.

Later, of cones', Part could wish. that winter was only just. tier spread salt over the ice as a Safety measure. Nowv, if the wea- ther doesn't change, we may need punt to get to the barn. Wish Kip. ling wtas around these days to see leis "lady of the Snowsi' pairs cost him. I doubt if such items -a.s stove repair's enter into the pic- ture when the powers that be are tabulating the cost of living index. As I write I take a look out of the window once in a while -=over towards our "Mountain." I . can hardly see it at all today, There is a fine drizzle failing and the mountain is shrouded in mist. Its fact my beloved mountain has ap- peared rather formidable all winter. There have been only a few occa- sions when alternating light and shadow have given it that mysteri- ous beauty that entrances me so mnttch. But still I love it in all its moods. • --only 1 have lately come to the conclusion that to admire it from a distance is one thing; to live on it is something else again. I know a few people who live on its -sometimes glorious:: heights and I have a feeling that they would not think "glorious" was the right ad- jective to use in describing it last week. One Morning the mountain road was a glare of ice. Cars took to the ditch as naturally as steel to a magnet. One driver was in and out of the ditch four times before reaching the foot of the hill. Still others got into the ditch and stay- ed there until after the road was ' 'andedi. One ylru,rti• who .was walls m into town oc.esiomxally took to her hands and' lcofees as a safety measure. Yes, I shall always love that mountain but I think I'll love it' from a distance—maybe distance lends enchantment. Of course we' also had our ice problems—at least Partner did— only a case of dire necessity would take me out on the ice. I have only •to look at it and my feet go from under mete. There is a bit of a hill down to our barn and when Partner went to milk that icy morning the orily way be could get there was to slide. When he felt himself going 1r dropped the milk pails, and they, wary considerately, slid too—one on either side of him, until they all reached the stable door. As Part - beginning.

Jesus Asserts His Authority Mark 11:11, 15-19; '12:28-31 Memory Selection: Mine house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.—Isaiah 65:76, After the triumphal cello' into Jerusalem Jesus entered the temple. Having looked about, 'tie went out to Bethany. On His return to Jeru- salem the next morning Ile hun- gered. Ile had probably spent much of the night in prayer, for a. heavy task lay before flips. The scene in the temple had grieved flirt. He now 'began to east out them that bought and sold in the temple and overthrew the tables of the money- changers. Ile- taught saying. "My house shall 'lite called of all nations .the hoose of prayer. but ye have made it • a den of thieves." These men as:Smiling to help the pilgrim:• in their offerings were 'earl' d:- seerating God's house and by their exorbitant profits, were stealing from the people. Some years ago a man proved .into a small town and opened up a store. A neighbour approached him saying, "To which church do you belong?" "Which is the largest?" be asked. When told, he said, "Then I shall belong to that one," The rea- son for his decision seemed to be, "That -will help my business." How many go to church to pray and how many go because it is respectable and tends to give them a better standing in the community. The church ought to be a house of house of prayer. Tesus met and defeated .His critics —the Pharisees, Herodians, and Saducees. To the young lawyer He gave the great statement of the law, "Thou shalt love the.Lord thy God and thy neighbour as thyself." Only by the grace of God through Jesus Christ can we keep this com- mandment which is fundamental to all. Trees i 44. Ring Up Their Age Record A new light is being thrown on history by a study named "Dendro- chonology"—the science of analys- ing the growth -rings on trees. These rings offer a clear picture of climate and weather conditions far further back than human records reach. Through them, ' it is possible sometimes to solve' problems that have baffled geologists and histori- ans for years. • The study is based on the fact that every year, while a tree is growing, it adds a ring to its trunk, Trees grow well in favourable years, ,?tally in }'ca'` of drought, or 0.IIer r rdslup '1'.les :,.ring imotar good tot lista traces a pattern or r'itle- ;itil7'k +croi the moll:.
