LESSON FOR DECIEM 1: Sid to Galileo whereas Wattbeer tells of their going to Ret'helhem whesre the wise meat of the east found than, and there they lived t; and then until the he relates flight he tato F,�gyp return to Nazareth where they took up their life again among their rela- tives. We read that there "the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, fil- led smith wisdom; and the grace of God wase upon him." Matthew Henry says, of this verse; He grew in the growing age; and his soul in- creased in wisdom, and in all the en- down'ments of a human soul. And he increased in favor with God and man this is, in all those graces that ren- dered him acceptable !both to God and man. Herein Christ accommodated himself to his estate of humiliation, that, as he condescended to be an infant, a child, a youth, so the im- age of God shone brighter in Him, when he grew to be a youth, than it did while he was an infant and a child. This is seen in the incident that follows — the only incident in connection with his life in the home which he left at twenty-nine years of age. IIt was the custom of Jewish families to attend ,the feast of the passover at Jerusalem. Though it was a long pourney the men had to attend thrice a year at the feasts of Pentecost, tabernacles and the pass - over but the women were obliged to attend only the greatest of these, that of the passover. With them at this time went Jesus. He having reached the age at which children by Jewish law had to begin to fast from time to time, that they might learn to fast in the day of atone- ment. 'At thirteen they took upon themselves the duties of church - membership. It is for the honor of Christ that all children should at tend public worship for he is pleased with their hosannas; and those chil- dren that were in their infancy dedi- cated to God, should be called upon, when they are grown up, to come to the gospel passover—the Lord's sup- per, that they may make it their own act to join themselves to the Lord. When Joseph and Mary discovered their son was not with the company, they turned back to Jerusalem seek- ing him. The third day they found Him in the temple, in some of the apartments where the doctors of the law kept their schools for disputa- tion; and there they found him "sit- ting in the midst of them," not stand- ing as one to be instructed but as a fellow member of their society. This is an itsnance, not only that he was "filled with wisdom," but that he had both a desire to increase it, and a readiness to communicate it. Many a youth at Christ's age now, would have been playing with the children in the temple, but he was sitting with the doctors in the temple. He heard them; he asked them ques- tions; he returned answers to there and at his wisdom and understand- ing they were much amazed. When his parents saw where he was they were astonished and when he went with them his mother ad- monished him for causing them so much anxious concern for his where - about. They did not comprehend the meaning of his reply as we can to -day for it has been explained by his after words and deeds. It was his errand into the world, and his meat and drink in the world, to do his Father's will and finish his work, and yet at that time his parents un- derstood not his saying nor his 'pro- phetical office; but "Mary kept all these sayings in her heart." This glimpse of His glory was short. He did not try to persuade His parents to settle in Jerusalem where He might have the best oppor- tunities for improvement and per - ferment, but very willingly returned to Nazareth where for many years he was, as it were, buried up. Doubt- less, he went up to Jerusalem, to worship at the feasts, three times a year, but whether he ever went again into the temple, to dispute with the doctors there, we are not told. He returned to Nazareth and was obedient to His parents, observed their orders, and went and came as they directed, and as it should seem, worked with his father at the trade of a carpenter. Though they were poor and his father only his suppos- ed father, yet Jesus was subject to them; though He was strong in spir- it and filled with wisdom, He was obedient to his parents. Herein is an example to children to 'be dutiful and obedient to their parents in the Lord, and growing in statute they will grow into young people held in favor with God and man.

A test conducted recently by W. H. Best, Los Angeles, member cf the Southern 'California Racing Pigeon Association, and other members, showed that of 75 birds liberated three miles north of there less than half found their way home, and some of these did not arrive until a week later. Best and his companions sight- ed the racers 45 minutes after they had been freed, circling over local housetops in a daze. Numerous theories have been ad- vanced by pigeon fanciers as- to the solution of the mystery. Among them is the belief that air pockets in this locality are responsible. What causes the air pockets and just how they affect the bird has not been deter- mined yet. Another solution advanced is that the mountains there are of volcanic formation and exert some odd effect upon the feathered speeders. A local man reported after a sur- vey of the situation that the large quantity .of natural gas blown off • at the Avenue field impregnates the air at the level at which the pigeons fly and affects them much in the same way as a "'shot of bootleg gin." The fowls are all marked with rings bearing the registry numlber of their owners. Best, who Iives at 31565 Gar- net street, Los Angeles, is anxious to hear of the discovery of any of the missing racers or of any plausible reason for their disappearance. One thing that impresses the visit- or to any of the Alberta farms held by titled 'Britishers is the fact that in not a single instance can he call the farm the mere plaything of a titled man. Real farming—whether it he on ir- rigated lands, mimed farming or in steckraisiing—is the order of the day at arny of these titled Britishers' hold- ings and the annu:,l balance sheet is scanned as anxiously by them s by the ordinary land -owner who cannot lay claim to a coronet.

MANY TITLED BRITISHER.S IN GREAT CANADIAN WHEAT - AREA Six titled Britishers own between them, some 15,000 acres of Alberta farm lands, having an assessed value of approximately $110,000. Of these, the Duke of Sutherland carries the largest holding; and pays the most in tax's. The Duke of Sutherland, the errand Land Company, and the erland-Canada Land Company between them, 9.202 acres. Earl Minto is the second largest holder with 1,908 acres. He is close- ly followed by the Prince of Wales, whose famous E. P. ranch consists of 1,655 acres. In addition to this, however, the Prince leases another 1,440 acres, so that his total holding are 3,095 acres, which brings him actually into sec- ond place. Lord Cheylesmere has 1,380 acres to his name in Alberta, and Lord Rodney 618 acres. The Earl of Eg- mont still holds 320 acres near P'rid- dis, in -Southern Alberta. The Duke of -Sutherland and the holding companies bearing his name pay the largest amount of tax, the assessment on the combined holdings being $57,000 in round figures. Earl Minto is assessed on a val- uation of $16,830 and the Prince of Wales, $15,170. Lords Rodney and CheyIesmore also are assessed in considerable sums for their holdings. Of the holdings of the Duke of Sutherland, 6,187 are held under the Sutherland -Canada Land Company, and are located near Brooks, in southern Alberta, the lands being irrigated. The Duke has, in addition, 2,055 acres of land near Brooks, under his own name, while the Sutherland Land Company holds some 960 acres along the south side of the Red River, 18 miles south and west of (Red Deer, and five miles north and west of In- nisfall. Earl Minto's holding of 1,908 acres are situated about' five miles south- west of Nanton, while the Prince of Wales' E. P. ranch of 1,655 acres is located in the foothills country along the Pekisko Creek, about 23 miles west of Nanton. The Prince's leased lands are im- mediately adjoining, (giving him, a fairly extensive ranch over which to range the blooded stock for which the E. P. name is already famous. Lord Cheylesmere's 1,380 acre ranch is at Hallpy Valley, near Alix, where he also has built up a name for pure bred horses. Lord Rodney's 618 acres are in the Fort Saskatchewan settlement, about four miles north of the town, and on the west side of the river. All types of Alberta farming are represented in the operations of the titled Britishers in this province. At Brooks, the Duke of Suther- land demonstrates what can be ac- comrplished by irrigated farming, aid- ed by the wonderful Alberta brand of sunshine during the growing season, and tempered by the Chinook winds in the winter. Both the Prince of Wales and Earl Minto are ranchers, as also is Lord f9heyletsmere, these three titled Bri- tishers running more to the breeding of pure bred stock, and farming only enough t0 sup* green feed foie the stuff, etc., for to use of the borne farm.

It is a vital centre where the gcspel message can he sworn and the Ttistian life lived amongst helpful sur'cundings to bring forth fruit and be sown again in wider fields when the leper who has not only been seal- ed in body, but in mind also, goes forth to take up his life again as a normal citizen. The message of the Cross holds and grips the mind of those who know only too well what it means to suffer and to be despised. It was a revelation to me, on an oc- casion when I was showing some lantern slides of the Life of Christ to the lepers in our leper church, to hear the exclamations of sorrow and sympathy spontaneously expressed when the picture of the Christ being crucified for ne was thrown upon the screen. Now that we are discharging more symptom-free cases each year, it is an increasing problem to help those who are alble into some useful work. To deal with the women and girls who become symptom-free and have become Christians, and cannot, there- fore, return to their homes, is a still greater problem.—From Without The Camp.
