LESSON FOR AUGUST 27th Lesson Lesson 26. , Golden Text -1 Samuel' 15:22. (Saul, the first king of Israel, was a son of Kish, the Benjamite of Gilbeah. Ile is described as a "choice young man, and a goodly; and the was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than' he; from his shoulders and upward he was higher than any of the people." At the desire of the people for a king, Samuel is illuminated by the -Spirit of the Lor•ci as to whom he was to anoint. Saul, who had gone out to seek the asses of his father, is advised 'by his servant to consult the ¢`seer" at Ramah as to the •fate of ..the asses. At the gate they meet the seer. It was Samuel. A divine in- timation had indicated to him the approach and future destiny of the youthful Benjamite. When Saul was about to return home, Samuel poured over Saul's head the consecrated oil, and with a kiss of salutation an- nounced to .hirn he was to be the ruler of the nation. From that mo- ment on a new life dawned upon Saul; and at every step homeward it was confirmed 'by the incidents, which according to Samuel's predic- lion, awaited him (X. 0-10). As only Sarneuel and ,Saul knew of what had taken place, Samuel convened an 'as - satiably at Mizpeh, and lots were cast as to w'ho was to be king. Saul was mimed. and by a divine intimation found hidden in„the circle of baggage around the encanipnent (X, 17-24). His stature at once ,conciliated the public feeling; and the people shout=' ed "'God Save the Ring.", The mur-• mews of the worthless part- of , the community, who refused to salute him with the accustomed presents, were soon hushed by an occasion a- rising to justify the selection of Saul. He was on his way home„ driving hk herd of oxen, when tidings reached his ears of the 'threat issued by Na - hash, •the Ring of Amnion, against Jabot -St -Gilead. "The spirit -of the Lord came upon Saul," and in this emergency he had recourse to the expedient of the earlier days. He sent throughout Israel as a message the bones of two of the oxen which he was driving. All the people 'came out with one consent,' and Saul, at the head of this vast multitude, tot- ally routed the Ammonites.' Then followed at Samuel's ., comrmand a gathering of the victors at Gilgal, where With solemn sacrifices the vic- torious leader was re -installed in his kingdom (KI)• Then it was Samuel resigned his office , as Judge, and warned both the people and Saul of Topic—Saul. Passage -1 Samuel 15:13 - the danger of disobedience to the camn-lands of God. Fent a time Saul paid good heed to this warning but as time passed. and the expulsion of he Philistines placed him in a posi- tion higher than that of any previous ruler of Israel, he 'became less and less conscious of his need of divine leading. In to -day's lesson we read how he disoibeyed the command of Samuel to "go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have and spare them not.” Samuel having received of the Loi•el. a communication, went to meet Saul and deliver it to him. Saul, being at the zenith of his glory, met him with the words: "I have performed the commandment of the Lord." But there was close at hand circumstan- tial evidence that he was not speak- ing the truth In its entirety. Having made one false statement the next soon followed and to. it was added a -religious excuse. Then Samuel stay- ed further, speaking on Saul's part by r"eviewin.g the way the Lord had brought him up to the present moni- .ent., Again Saul tried to defend his action but was answered by the final proclamation of his rejection: "Be- cause thou hast rejected • thee from being King," esla WORLD MISSIONS tem of public sohools; we are model- ling our business according to your ideas; and we find ourselves worse off than before. May ib not` be that we have missed, the 'principal thing from the West, and that we shall find in Christianity the solution of our national problem." Protestant Christians s c a et e r ed throughout the land the' rate of pro- gFess is steadily rising, and it is quite clear that we are facing an op- portunity of the ages. The hour of Christ has struck in China; and the United Church of Canada shares in this endeavor in three sections, North Honan, South China and West China. While the present state of affairs in 'China is appalling, the loy- alty and devotion to the cause of Christ iby converts in our missions have been most gratifying. 'China needs Christ to -day more than she has ever before.. China needs Christ in this period of re- construction. Sbe• needs the friend- ship of Christians who love her and who can sympathetically understand her. . She needs Christ in all her re- lations with other nations and in every phase of her daily life, as well as in churches and on Sundays. We are apt to think of the various needs —the medical need, the educational need and the like, 'but •China's great- est. need is Christ.

Thenmangel appears to be the oldest .of our cultivated root crops, says the Dominion Forage Crop 'Division. Although exact re- cords are not available, the produc- tion of the mangel can 'be traced back as far as 2,000 year's before the Christian era. The evidence of its production at that date is contained on an old plate found in an Egyptian grave. The plate represents a lab- or•er placing a large root on a table of sacrifice. ' According 'to Theo- ophrastus, the Greek philosopher, red and white roots were commonly culti- vated in Asia Minor in 320 B. C. Both rnangels and beets are suppos- ed to he descended from the beach leet which is found growing wild neare the Caspian Sea, along the shores of the Mediterranean, and in Spain, France, Holland,Great. Bri- tain and Denmark.. The origin of the turnip is not definitely known. Pliny, the Rlornan author and naturalist, when writing about the cultivation of field roots among the Romans at the' beginning of the Christian era,' says :that next to grapes and cereals, the turnip was Italy's most cultivated plant. It i§ also known that the turnip was grown in Sweden in prehistoric times during the Bronze age. The turnip was brought to Canada at. a very early date. In 1540 Cartier sowed turnip :seed • during- his voyage of discovery- and in 1779 it is recorded that General Sullivan, when -invading .the Indian country, destroyed the turnips in the Indian fields where Geneva, New York State, now stands: The Swede turnip or rutabaga is grown at the present time practically all over the world, and is considered ON ON EXPOSITOR DON'T PUT UP WITH „i; UGLY KIN Fruit -a -titles give new beauty "I was run down and listless.

The French call these two classes, Chou-navets and rutabagas, respectively. The Eng- fish nomenclature, while now includ- ing the two forms under the one consnuon name, formerly classed the first as the turniperooted cabbage. In 1806 this distinction was retained in the United States, McMahon des n cri•bing the turnip -rooted cabbage and the Swedish turnip or rutabaga. Rutabagas were `introduced into Scot- land in 1781, and into England in 1790. Ten Ways To Use Up Cream That's Soured IIn our grandparents' time sour cream was a staple commodity in the average kitchen, endmany delectable dishes owed their unusual flavor to its use. For while sweet cream en- riches a dish, cream that is soured .adds both richness and distinctive flavor. Sour cream may be used to add flavor to almost every course in the meal—soup, fish, neat, salad and dessert. It may eveme used in the sandwiches for after tea. Sour cream adds aver to dishes made of fish, • poultry, genie, lean beef and liver. Sour cream salad dressings and sauces are delicious, and hot breads of unusual flavor and tenderness are made with it. Cakes, cookies and pastry and delicious pie fillings also may be made from the sour cream. 'Here are a few suggestions that may aid you in utilizing the cream that sours in your kitchen during the summer months: 1 2 cups pastry flour f1r/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4, teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon soda 2 eggs (Sour cream 1 teaspoon flavoring. Sift day ingredients into mixing bowl or saucepan, bleak eggs into - a measuring cup, add cream to fill the cup and turn into the fleur. Bkat hard 2 minutes and bake in a nsod- erate oven. To 'mlake Sour Cream Chocolate Cake, add 1/4 cup cocoa, 1/4 cup sugar and 3 tablespoons, boiling water. Sour Cream Cake Frosting. 11 cup sugar 1 cup sour cream 1/4 tablespoon butter 1 cup nutmeats 1 teaspoon vanilla. . 'Combine the sugar, cream and but- ter. Cook slowly to 236 deg. F., or until a soft ball forms (when a por- tion is tested in cold water. Set a- side to coeil for about 20 minutes, then ibeab until creamy. Add the nuts and vanilla andospread on,cake. Sour Cream Doughnuts. 2 eggs 1 cup sugar '"` 1/4 cup sour cream 1I2 cup sour milk 1/2 teaspoon soda 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg T'lour. Beat the eggs until light and add sugar, cream, milk, soda, salt and nutmeg. Mix well. Add enough flour to Make a soft dough. Roll out on floured board to one-quarter inch thickness, cut with a doughnut cut- ter and fry in deep hot fat until a light 'brown. Drain on brown paper. Dust with powdered sugar. es Important.__ a In using sour cream in flour mix- tures, 'bemire that not more than one- half teaspoonful of soda (level mea- sure) is used with each cupful of sour cream. Excess soda causes an undesirable flavor. In most flour mix- tures, 1 level teaspoonful of baking powder to each cupful of flour is used in addition to the soda. 1,000 Island Dressing. 1 cup sour cream 1 teaspoon salt r..•. 2 tablespoons lemon juice lei teaspoon .pepper 1,+2 green pepper, finely chopped 1/4 teaspoon tabasco sauce 1 teaspoon sugar 2 hard -cooked eggs 11/4 tablespoons chili sauce. Whip the sour cream until quite stiff. Add the salt, leanlon juice, pep- per, tabasco sauce and sugar, con- tinuing heating all the while: When smooth and well blended, add the finely -chopped green pepper, the chopped hard -cooked eggs and the chili sauce. Chill well and serve on crisp, shredded cabbage, lettuce or other green salad. Chicken With Sour Cream. (Roast a tender chicken until it is about two-thirds done—about 50 min- utes. Pour over it one cup of sour cream. and sprinkle with salt, con- tinue conking, and bast( from time to time with the cream in the pan, until the bird is done. Remove the chicken to the platter and serve with the rich, creamy gravy. The .-acne delicious flavor can be given to a broiler split into halves or to a roasting chicken cut into pieces and bake d or 'broiled until halfrdone, covered with the cream, and the cooking completed in the oven. Sour Cream Nut Bread. 1a 2 cups pastry flour 1/2 cup sugar 1s teaspoon soda 114 teaspoons baking powder 1/�• teaspoon salt 1 egg- ] gg] 'cup thin sour cream. 1/2 cup chopped nuts 2 to 4 tablespoons 'milk, or enough. to make a stiff batter—stiffer than is used for cake. Mix and sift the dry ingredients. Beat the eggs, combine with milk and add to riry ingredients to form a stiff hatter. Arid nuts and more milk if needed. Turn into a well greased loaf pan, set the pan in a warn) place for 20 minutes, then bake in a mod crate oven, 325 to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, for 50 to 60 minutes. Do not cut this bread until it is 24 hours old. Delicious for afternoon tea. Sour, Cream Jumbles. 1/2 cup shortening 1 cup granulated sugar 1 egg, well (beaten t.ca:+goon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 teaspoon mace 2% cups pastry flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 2 teaspoons baking powder 1cup sour cream % cup chopped nut meats.

Canadian Wool Consignments IIn response to the advice and ef- forts of the Canadian 'Co-operative Wool Geowers, Ltd., the loyalty and 'appreciation of sheep owners is shown by the fact that the range area of Southern Alberta has contributed for co-operative grading . and sale over 1,650,000 pounds (66 car loads) of wool this year. The Eastern Alber- ta Wool Growers Association at/Han- na has already sent 'forward some 110,000 pounds and the Association at Calgary reports approximately 150,000 against 80,000 a year ago. .The range...area of. Southern Saskat- chewan has contributed 380,000 (13 car loads) in comparison with 3660,- 000 in 1932.., All other ••Western dis- tricts are either holding their own or showing slight increases and it is evident that well over 3,000000 Lbs. of 'Western wool' will be handled either at Weston, Ontario, or New Westminster, B. C. A similarly sat- isfactory showing is recorded by the Eastern Provinces. Fallows East and West An excellent method of eradicating weeds is to place the land for one season in su.mimer fallow. In East- ern Canada 'this method is +very rare- ly employed, but in. Western Canada the summer fallow is a regular 'part of the great majority of crop rota- tions. 4n Western Canada the sum- mer fallow is used not on13r"'-'to' de- stroy weeds but to conserve moisture from one year to another.,, In East- ern Canada, on the other hand, where sufficient moisture usually avail- able, the summer . allow is rarely us- ed in rotations. Experiments show that, where 4beeds are not a factor, says the Dominion Department of Agriculture, spring seeded crops do not give any -larger yield, when fol- lowing strm,m'er-fallow, than when grown on land which has been crop- ped the previous year. On some fields, however, where the ]and is very badly infested with wees1s, and where time and labour will not per- mit the necessary cultivation to han- dle these weeds in the regular rota- tion, a summer -fallow may be neces- sary., Under these circumstances, the land should be ploughed in the fall if possible, or, if not then, as early in the spring as circumstances p:•rmit. Weeds in Cereal and Grass Seeds 'With reference to weed ,class•ifica- tion and seed grades under the Seed i Act which is administered by the Seed Brarch of the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, weed.; are classified into three groups accord- ing aJ the seriousness of their char. acter. The first group cons!sts• of primary noxious weeds, the nine members of which are couch grass, bladder Campion, dodder, fielded bindweed, ,Iohnson grass, ox -eye daisy, perennial 'sow thistle, white cockle, and wild mustard.

When Food is Poison 'Little Jimmy suffered so constant- ly from 'colds and bronchial infec- tions that one day his' distracted mother decided to take him to a doc- tor, to be tested for susceptibility to pollEns. "Yes, pollen may be the cause," the doctor said, "but the fact that the trouble Ss no seasonal suggests that it is something, else. It may be house dust or animal emanations —the fine particles from hair or feathers, pr it may he some food." .So the doctor made his tests and discovered that Jimmy was suscept- ible to celery! When this was omit. ted from his diet; his colds were eas- ily controlled.

Hay fever, bronchial asth- ma; "colds," eczema, hives, intestinal disturbances and migraine (sick heartache) may have their source in some ordinary food, to the protein of which the individual organism re- sets unfavorably. In medical parl- ance this hypersensitiveness is known as allergy. Until recently, a physician who "aspected food to be the cause of illness in a patient had to resort to the process of elimination to deter- mine the offending article of diet, a Process tedious and often ineffective. Now, however, the science of chemis- try has developed the protein skin text for this purpose. The extract- ed proteins of some 200 coma -nen funds are now available to the med- ical proflession for use in allergy testing. Any food may be tested simply by placing a drop of the food extract on a Imlinute scratchy" on the skin. If Within 30 minutes a large red area develops, the individual is abnormally allergic' to that food and should therefore avoid it entirely. Twenty or thirty foods ,may be thus. tested at one visit without special discomfort to the patient. •By •1111ceit s of these protein , skin tests, startling discoveries have been made in many cases.

The War and Agriculture In the course of a remarkable art- icle on "Wheat: the Long Trend of T'roduetion;* 1885-1932, the Monthly' Commercial Letter tf the Canadian Bank of Commerce says: "The war destroyed, the existing balance of world agriculture. Large areas of Europe were devastated, fanm labor was conscripted into the warring armies and in the end man -power was greatly) reduced. ln'Fi'ance, Germany and Eastern Europe not only was a large part of the wheat acreage abandoned, but the yield per acre was greatly reduced. In France, Gerrnany• and tastern Europe not only 'was a large part,of the wheat acreage abandoned, but the yield per acre was greatly redulced., Mean- while the demand for wheat became urgent, and under the stimulus of high prices, a sharp increase in acre, age took place in Canada, the United States, Australia and India, with the result that world acreage continued to expand at the Sane rate as in the' preceding decade but with a lower' average yield per acre." n, WILSONS REALLY KILL One pad kills flies all day and every 'day for 2 or 3 weeks. 3 pads in each packet.
