S. S. LESSON FOR OCTOBER 22nd
Lesson Topic—Paul in Asia Minor.
Lesson Passage—Acts 13:1-5; 13-
15. 14:19-23.
Golden Text—Mark 16:15.
In the first nverses of to -day's lesson
there is recorded the fiipt missionary
ordination service. Two men had
been definitely chosen of trod for
foreign :mission work and their frl-
low-workers Were authorized to set
them apart by the laying on of hands
after a searsen of felting and prayer.
These two men were Bairnabas and
Saul, who for a year had been active=
ly engaged in the building up of the
Christian Church in Antioch. Their
arrangements for departure being all
tirade, they set off lot" the seaport of
Beleiecia and from there they sailed
for the island of Cyprus of Which
Barnabas was a native son. As they
sat one the 'deck of the vessel they
must have felt a deep emotion at
the thought that now for the first
time the Faith, on which depended
the hopes of the world, was starting
for fresh regions from its native
Syria. The future was•all mercifully
Bidden for otherwise, how could Paul
have gone forward? His human spir-
it would have shrunk from the sight
but his hero's he• •t would have cried
out: "I can o all things through
•Christ that strehgtheneth me "
They had John Mark with then for
a time in the capacity of an attend-
ant.. They remained in, Salamis for
a season hut the only regord of their
work there is found in these words:
"They preached the word of God in
the s agogues of the Jews."
Fro Salamis the three missionar-
ies t whole but
res ca i the hoe 'stand not
one indent of their l5 'ourne r is re-
corded until they reached the town of
Paphos. It was - here that the name
Saul was dropped and when the jour-
ney was resumed it was "Paul and
his co•mpany." They sailed away
from the island and landed at Perga
in Pamphylia where their stay was
short but marked by the separation
from them of John Mark wlro return-
ed to Jerusalem.
From Perga they made their way
inland to the large contmercial town
of Antioch. of Pisidia. Here they
went to the synagogue on the Sab-
bath day. and were. called upon to
speak. Paul at once accepted the in -
:siltation and we are given the first
,sermon of St. Paul of which the re-
cord has been preserved (verses 17
to 41) .
Later on persecution expelled. them
,out of the country and they, shaking
the dust of their • feet agaitret their
foes, went into the neighboring re-
gion of Iconium. But their depar-
ture did not destroy the infant church
which they had founded. They left
behind them the inspiration of a new
faith in the hearts of those. who had
accepted the nieseage they delivered
and which was sealed by the Holy
Srpirit.
In their missionary endeavours in
this region they followed the injunc-
tion given •hy Jesus-to'H:is twelve dis-
ciples when He sent them forth as
la'nilbs among wolves: ''R'-h.n they
persecute you in this city. flee ye to
another."
At Lystra 'they were regarded as
gods and t:he people. together with
their priest. would have: done sacri-
fice to them. Howeet'r. cerfain Jae.,
came from Antioch and Icnniu:'i and
persuaded the people so that Paul was
'cored sumeisedly to death. Reamer-
ing,
e. ct-ing, he and Barnabas moot d on,
reaching Deme where they ptencheil
and taught many. After a time they
rctr••icei: ti;r•i: st ps, "confirming rhe
soul; of th'e disciples, and exhorting
they to continue in the faith, and
that wP menst t'breugh much trib'ila-
tion enter in'o the Kingdom of God."
In the course of time they re' irn-
ed to Antinc•h. the piece• of their res-
ignation as heralds of the cross. fh_y,
on arriving gathcl•ed at the church to -1
gather and "rehearsed all that God
had done with tleen, and how He had
opened the door of faith unto the
Gentiles."

the young man sat' forward on the
edge of his chair, his grey eyes shin-
ing above his high cheek bones.
"Then you think, sir," he asked,
"that Africa is the place for ree ?"
Livingstone's prospects of getting to
China had been damaged by the op-
iunl. war; it was in these en -cum-
! etaaces that he carne into contact
with Dl'. Moffat, who was then in

Iwaiting for the end of this abomin-
able opium war? I will go at once
to Africa," and thus Africa became
his sphere, eget David :Livingstone
looked into the heart' of his destiny.
The smoke of a thousand villages!
The adventure of it appealed to the
youth of him; the magnitude of the
task waked a response in the grow-
ing strength within his ,breast. So
David Livingstone, son of a Scotch
tea merchant of Blantyre, stepped
without hesitation and fear into a
life strange for one of his conserva-
rive lineage, a life adventurous, col-
orful, rich with pageantry and 'tense
with danger. but sweetened and en-
nobled by his utter devotion to the
cause frr which he worked.
On November 20. 1840. Livingstone
was ordained a miss ionar5; in Albion
Chapel, London. and or the 8th •of
December he embarked on board the
rr
shipGeot e andproceeded to the

The next year found hint in Africa,
an eager, earnest young man of 28,
intensely interested in the navel
sights and experiences of the new
country, and bursting with energy
and enthusiasm for the work. While
-waiting for permission to locate his
own station in the region of the un-
explored country„ he did everything
passible to familiarize himself with
the native character and language,
and lived for six months with the
tribe of Lepoloh, taking short jour-
neys through their country, perfect- I
ing his knowledge of the language.
Out of his experience, two things be-
came 'clear to him. He began to see
that the work of the missionary was
broader than he- had ever dreamed,
and there grew up in his mind 'the
conviction th.at'•the first fundamental
of a successful evangelization of un-
civilized nations is to bring them in
contact with the highest type of civ=
ilization and with ideals of high liv-
ing which would form a 'bac'kground
for the teachings of Christ. Thus,
to him, exploration and the bringing
of l;gjtimate• honest commerce to the
natives were necessary first steps in
missionary work. The second idea
that took shape in his mind during
this period was the certainty that
the slave trade was the most power-
ful and mast deadly agent that could
possibly op rate against the :spread
of Christianity. From that time he
met his face steadily against what he
termed "the open sore of the world."

Wingham Principal Speaks.
11r. Alrid Posliff. Principal of
Wingham Public. School, took as his
=ubj: ct "`D'ocendo 'Discintus." From
his long experience he gave to the
younger teachers .his ideas of what
should be the main object of the
public school teachers' efrorts, and
the methods' by which that result
would be secured. He made a strong
plea for the development of a peace
complex in the youth of to -day, and
stressed• the. point that citizenship
should hs the -chief result of our sys-
tem. • •
'Miss Mary Thompson spoke on
"Household Science • in the . Public
School, giving a resume of the or-
ganization and carrying on of a
Household Science project in her
school last year. She very. ,plearly
outlined the ste•p•s taken in organiza-
tion of the class, the hearty support
given by the parents, and; the good
results that followed in health, at-
tendance, school spirit; os well as in
the correlaltion with compositions,
arithmetic, geography, • reading and
liygihne. This work is recommended
and encouraged 'by both our Inspec-
tors, and the .Department of Educa-
tion which is 'liberal' in its grants in
order that it may •be niore generally
adopted as' a school subject.
Mr. Brackenbury, Principal of the
Wingham "High School spoke ably
on ."Co-operation." Lack of co-op-
eration among the nations had result-
ed in failure of conferences that aim-
ed to relieve the present dei ession,
and for this attitude teacher. must
assume at least part of the blame.
Be wiled for the idevelopment of
the cn-operative spirit 'between teach-
er and pupil, principal and teacher",
home and school; primary and sec-
ondary school, and between the
teacher and the community. The aims
of ell are the sante and lack of co-
operation is usually caused by a fail-
ure to understand each other. Ad-
justment, of the pr esen tangle n
which the world finds itself must
^one, and will come the sooner if
we as teachers can only instill this
co-operative spirit into the live of
these with whom we come in contact,
lending the kindly hand, giving the
cheery word, c ncouraging and under-
standing each other and promoting
sound activities.

Parrrlint (double strength), and
add to it Y4 pint of hot water
and a little granulated sugar.
Take 1 tablespoonful four times
a day!.
This will often bring quick
relief from the distressing head
noises. Clogged nostrils should
open, breathing become easy
and the mucus stop dropping
into the throat. It is easy to
prepare, costs little and is
pleasant to take. Anyone who

Grater Of Suicides
(Condensed from Miroir Du Monde;
Paris, in .Magazine Digest) '
:In the western countries suicide,
which is alivaes., an act of despair, is
considered cowardice, and not unjust-
ly so, I.n_certain countries, England,
for example,. it is punished by. the
lane.
Not so in Japan. In the Japanese
conception suicide is a noble gesture,
sanctioned by the code of honor of
the ancient caste of the Samurai and
,approved by national 'tradition.
Next to the classical hara-kiri, the
young generations of Japan have al-
ways shown a preference' for various
other, more or less romantic methods,
of escaping,
from thisvale voe of tears.
The young men and women of Japan
disappointed and discouraged, unable:
to cope with the ever greater dif-
ficulties of modern life, seek cleath—
but they want to die in beauty.
There was a time •wfhen the sons of
:the Rising Sun used to jump into the
ocean from high rocks. But the Jap-
anese are all without exceptidn excel-
lent swimmers and the instinct of
self-presei'vatio i often got the' upper
hand and made them regain the
shore.
To avoid such a temptation the
seekers of death then adopted the
Kegon cataract, an almost vertical
waterfall, about 260 feet high. In
this vortex the 'bodies disarpeared
forever—en im•p•ortant point with the
Japanese, who' are vent' superstitious
and loathe the idea 'of their bodies
being mutilated or exposed to the
public gaze, or worst of all, subject

for suicide discovered the merits of
the little volcanic island of Oshinva
in the Padific, just Off Yokohama,.

Oehiana's beautiful maidens, its gor-
geous red camellias and .its fire -spit-
ting 1V2oun!t .Mihara, eternally crown-
ed with a cloud olf fire and smoke.
But 'of all the beauties of the island
only the mountain tempted those
weary of life. In evergreater num-
bers they began to flock to the is-
land, in order to plunge into the
crater abyss and be cremated ht the
irecanidesc'estt lava. The jump of a=
bout 1;650 feet implied a painless
dleath and the flesh, dissolved in the
flames, rose to 'heaven together with
the immortal soul.
•T'his poetic vision exercised. an ir-
resistible attraction upon the senti-
mental maidens of Japan. Mount
Mihara began to :devour their bod-
ies. The first butterfly- to be attract-
ed by its light was :Miss Kiyoko, a
beautiful young society girl from
Tokio. Together with 'a friend she
climbed to the edge of the crater,
wrote a ,charming message of good-
bye to life and took the fatal plunge.
Her companion fainted and diet(
shortly afterwards from nervous
shock.
Thus Mount Mihara, became the
fashionable crematory and the heca-
tomb continued. The people firmly
believed in, the purifying and sancti-
fying power of its flames.' Terrible
scenes took place at the crater. A
women jumped down with her infant
in her amus. An octogenarian had
himself ,carried up to the edve in or-
der to end his earthly career in the
abyss. Young girls eonciluded death
pacts with, young students and the
couples threw theimselves down to-
getherth.
Withe indifference typical of all
Asiatics, tourists began to flock to
the fatal spoi in search of 'emotions.'
Special excursion steamers carried
them to the island. They, climbed
the slopes of the volcano, covered
with azalea groves and de•serts of
ash and lava, and upon reaching the
edge -.of
down to wait, all by the
light.of the moon.
'Neither did they have to wait long.
For soon a young man would emerge
from the 'darkness, advance hurried-
ly to the ed ,take off his Coat, wave
a last salute with his hand and dis-
appear. The mountain would roar
ominously and a column• of smoke
rise from its d'erptlhs. A soul passed.
They would pick up the coat and find
the name. A guard, who always ar-
rived too late, would take the name
down and the tourists, satisfied with
having had their 'money's worth,
would depart.
The epidemic assumed such pro-
portion's ,that the government finally
decided to intervene. For no less
than two hundredpersons had sought
and found death in the Mihara erart-
er since 'the beginning of the year.
The few guards stationed in its
proximity .had proved inadequate to
cope with the situation.
(Scientists and ,journalists offerledi
their senv ces for a scientific exFplor-

genteral order. It proceeds from the
President down through the depart-
mierts. Try, to think of the central
administrative officer of the last ad-
ministration saying, 'as General John-
son did recently: "This thing's .gat to
be done in a gold -fish bowl. The air'll
be full of dead cats before long." Or
of a Cabinet officer sending word to
the President as Secretary Ickes did,
that "I'll die for him, but I'll be
damned if Pll get seasick for him!"
The air is ,full of informality. The
?vlerage Congress¢nan is flattered to
be called "Toni". or "Bill" by the
President of the United States, es-
pecially, in the presence of friends or
constituents. His wife, if the Presi-
dent knows hear well from the old
days, is thrilled to be called "Mile
dred" as she shakes his hand at the
"formal" White House reception. The
orthodox and reserved Senator Glass,.
a Southern gentleman old !enough to
be the President's father, is hailed
cheerily as "Carter," and likes it. ,
McKenna, the White House door-
keeper for every President since the
first Roosevelt, nearly dropped in hos
tracks to be called "Pat" -the second
day he stuck
his head in -the door at
a Presidential summons. Er erybody
in the White House is• eatIed by first
name; in fact, to be greeted other-
wise would seem uncomfortably stifff'
to a stenographer or clerk. And the
personal touch is never, more notice-
able than in the President's press
conference when a question from any
one of the hundred or so correspond-
ents who attend brings a -response
prefixed by "Fred" or "Charlie'' or
"Russ."
However, only, • Louis McHenry
Hlowe, who 'has...lined nearly half his
life with the President, and a few
extremel'y,?' intimiate personal friends,
and of course,. relatives, Cali the
President "Franklin," to his face. The
dignity of the office repels such fam-
iliarity if the President's awn good.
n'atur'e does .not.
To Mr. Roosevelt the use of first
nanjes comes More naturally, per- • -
haps, than to any other President irs
recent times. He seems to like it as
much as the .:one addressed, and his
faculty for remembering a name ia•
of incalcullable political !value. lit
promises to •have an enduring influ-.
ence upon official life in the national
capital.
