Amos 5:15. 'i'I11 LESSON IN ITS SETTING 'flute •— About 760 B,C, Place -- The prophecies of A111o9 were uttered at Bethel, twelve miles north of Jerusalem, and were prim- arlly addressed to northern Israel. Tho word "Amos" means "bur- den" or "bui•deu-bearer". The intro- duction to the book informs us; that he lived during the days .of Uzziah, the king of Judah, , who relined from 810 to 758 B,C., and of Jero- boam . Ii,. who. reigned over Israel from 825 to 773 B.C, Amoa thus was a contemporary of Hosea and.of the greatest of alt the prophets; Isaiah, Of the life of Art os we know noth• ing outside what is found fu this' book, but his cilia writing reveals a very distinct and interesting char• actor, He was undoubtedly a pea- sant, springing fr.. .. a poor and ob- scure family — „ shepherd, • and therefore a natural-born preacher. Ho lived close to nature, IN AMOS' DAY Amos affords us a picture of the actual condition of the people of the Northern Iiingdom, ,The luxury of the rich was conspicuous, Thee. luxuries, he says, were obtained by means which he calls "violence and robbery"; by oppression of the poor and needy; by dishonest trail. ing; by taking bribes. The women showed themselves as cruel and hard-hearted as men, Public and private virtues alike had decayed. Humane laws were openly ignored, The poor mau need not Iook for re- dress in the courts where justice was openly bought and sold, PLEADS WITH ISRAEL Amos 5:1. Hear ye this word that I take up for a lamentation over you, 0 house of Israel. Amos pleads with Israel to Beak the Lord, using themost powerful arguments he could command — that they would regain abundant life and the bless - which the hearts of all men do really crave, 10. They hate him that reproveth in the gate, and they ab. For him that speaketh uprightly. 11, Forasmuch therefore as ye do trample upon the poor, and take exactions from him of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell In them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink the wine thereof. 12. For I,know how maul - fold are your transgressions, and ?tow• •'mighty ere your sins --- ye that afflict the just, that take. a. bribe, and that turn aside the needy in the gate front their right, . 18. ' Therefore be that is prudent shall keep silence in such a time; for it is an evil time. It will he noticed in this denunciation of Israel's la - Nulty that ,the sin which he re- probates most severely le the injus- tice of one class to another, of the oppression of the poor by those above them, TIIE GOOD MAN 1.4, Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live; and so Jehovah, the God of hosts, will be with you, as • ye say, 1u, Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish justice in the gate; it may be that Jehovah, the God of hosts, will be gracious unto the emnaut of Joseph, Israel is to seek the good that she might live. In Amos, goodness Is the do- ing of justice iu society, the secur- ing of fair play between man and man. The man who would even try to live to himself could not be good in the Old Testament sense of the term, however many of the passive rirlues he Wright possess. SIN iN TIIE HEART 2l. I hate, I despise your feasts, and I will take not delight in your solemn assemblies, 22. Yea, though ye offer me your burnt offerings and tectal-offeviugs, I will not accept then!; neither will I regard the peace•offerings of your fat beasts. 23, Tuke thou away front mo the noise of thy songs; for 1 will not hear tite melody ot thy viols. 24, But let justice roil down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty tream. 1V'hat Clod 13 condemning here is the hypocrisy of • Israel, iu that site attempted to kr'ep extern• elly'the religious la ws tti'hirh were L►id down by Moses, at tin, satins time Ivorsllipping false gods of her kfrwu•ereuliotl.

He outlin- ed a glowing future for',. prevent- ive medicine. Although it. is still a new field, nlen,like Pasteur and Lister made such strides in check- ing the spread' of disease that the mortality rate has been greatly decreased, he said, PREVENTION COMES FIRST The idea of prevention• is coat- ing to the fore as its possibilities are made known, Dr.. Bates de- clared. The ancient Chinese paid their doctors only when they were well, and Dr, Bates suggested that Can- adians might well adopt the sante principle. What „would state medicine mean to citizens? Would there be too many doctors, and how would they he paid? These are .questions that are perplexing the medical practice and the layman today. But medical practice must' change —illness is an expensive luxury, costing Canada one billion dollars annually. Dr. Bates suggested a re -organization along preventive lines, with health departments re- ceiving 'more than their present grant of seven million annually, ROBIN HOOD METHOD Canada's present system of medical practice, he stated, fol- lows the Robin Hood method, with the poor being given treatment by excellent physicians, only at the cost of their self-respect.' The rich pay well for good service, but the middle classes are in the most un- fortunate position of all, being ex- pected to pay although they real- ly cannot afford to do so. In Eng- land thirty years ago medical care was made readily available to everyone through the institution of Healil) Insurance, Under th;s system a large group of the popu- lation contributed to a general fund from which the doctor was paid a definite amount per patient per year, whether his patient was well or ,sick, o -•-•-•-•-a-•-• -•-•-tea-.

War cost to Canada in the coming fiscal year is estimated at $500,000,000. This is nearly three times the expert• diture in the first year of the last war. Canada's military contribution in the war of 1914-18 was largely one of men, Now the contribution Is one of men plus machines, and the machine heay. ily increases the cost. ' Hero are a few cost ,compartsona with the last war: An army division costs about twice BS much. This is due to mechanized equipm"nt. At this stage of the last war, Can- ada's naval equipment and personnel consisted of two light cruisers and 1500 men. In the first full fiscal year, the naval •service spent less than $4,000,000.

'Most of the production was in the Turnor 'Bailey fields where Continued oxiplorat:on brought in 26 new wells during the year. The wide range of minerals •produced in Canada and the great expansion in output since 1914 will be an important factor in the war efforts of the Allies, Wholesale Prices Attempts to prevent a rise in priced of as great proportions as occurred in the 1914.18 period have been fairly > uccessful.

Following the Russo- Finnish peace, the diplomatic in- itiative was wrested from the Al- lies to be wielded energetically by Germany; 2. As a result of the German diplomatic drive, Italy ap- peared to .'re drawn- into closer collaboration with the Reich; 1. Allied rejection of any patch- ed -up peace cleared the stage for intensification of military activ- ity, if such there was to be; '4.

To get hint to do this, the blockade mutt be made effective or a coal- ition organized against him. The Germans, fully realizing this, dir- tot their efforts toward warding off both blockade and coalition. Hitler's last card, then, was seen to be decision by battle —.

S. Blair, secretary of the N. S. Farmers' association, Prof. ' K. Cox, Agricultural College, Truro, and others conducted an aggres- sive campaign for 50% more land in grain. At the annual conven- tion of the N. S. Farmers' Assoc- iation, held in 'Euro the other week, Prof. Cox gave a very, in- structive talk on "Grain Produc- tion on Old Grass and Pasture Lands Depleted in Fertility", em- phasizing the need for liberal ap- plications of the proper fertilizer, . IDEAL NURSE CROP Barley will be grown more ex- tensively this year, because of the prominent place accorded it in the feed ration for bacon hogs, and barley with its shallow root system requires a fertile top soil, Unlike malting barley, feed bar- ley is not fastidious, demanding only the liberal feeding which promotes vigorous, healthy growth and fills the kernels. Speaking of kernels: in order that these be not full of smut, a disease that takes a heavy annual toll of our grain, the seed barley should be treat- ed with ethyl mercury phosphate, the dust fungicide for cereals, at the rate of one•half ounce per husbel. Barley is an ideal nurse crop and may sometimes be sown with grasses and clover. When these are seeded down the fertilizing should be more ample to ensure success of the following hay (mop. Could Make 500 Trips To Moon Wtihout An Accident -- 3,000 Ontario Truck Drivers Travel That Far in Complete Safety Ontario has some 3,000 truck dri• Tors who could make GOO odd trips to the moon — and safely, ton— if only the moon had the needed road connections. But the distance could be just as great, For Ontario's safest truck drivers have turned up 12,000,000 collective miles without an accl- dent. And that, says the Ontario Safe- ty League, Is a performance worthy not only of merit cards, but of me- dals as well. Both medals and merit cards were bestowed on the 3,000 drivers by A. G. Partridge, President of the League. Some of the truck wranglers, it was disclosed, were receiving them for the seventh con- secutive year. And in case some amateur stat- isticians may say that the distance to the moon is not a fair way of measuring this safety performance, the drivers rsply that one can, after all, compute it in terms of circling the earth. - COLLECTIVE MILEAGE Their collective mileage' — all without a .mishap, remember • -- would take then around the Equate or approximately 5,000 times, Or, if one wants to be practical about it; tlher,e are 410,S08 miles of highways. in the Dominion of Canada.

In this class, too, will coma inany of the perennial flowers, iris, phlox, peonies, plants of me- dium height and which, like all perennials when once planted and established, will come up each year and flower with very little further attention. —0— BROKEN LINES Nature detests straight lines.

This cost will grow rather than become less, for the townships and counties are un- dertaking to keep sideroads and concessions open during the winter in order that farmers may market their product any and every day of the week, IIEDGES OP 1" OREST 'TREES There is growlug enthusiasm re- garding the usefulness of trees to replace snow fences. Hedges of for• cyst rtees planted around 30 feet from the road lane are being tried in several counties. The railroad have already demonstrated the ef- fectiveness of tree rows in prevent - Ing drifting and municipal officers have inaugurated a similar policy but as yet only in an experimental way. In many districts it will probably work out so the strip of laud be- tween tho trees and the roadway will he cultivated, Fences will be eliminated and a weed•culting prob lem will be solved.

CHAMBERS A Spring Medley So many different things come to lily Blind, that I wish to write about to you, but I would like also to answer some spring requests. There was a time, when it would be much too early now to ask for asparagus, rhubarb, and many of the spring products for which aur mouths water. How- ever, today it is much different, with frozen fruits and vegetables on tho market, and other products provided by modern hothouse fac- ilities. Almost anything we desire, we may have. This week let us commence in real Southern style by serving the saladfirst. I wanted to give you this salad last week but lacked the space so here we are. Asparagus Salad 20 stalks asparagus Rings cut from green pepper • xnd pimento - 1 tablespoon finely chopped 'Onion Lettuce Plain boiled dressing Arrange four stalks of aspar- agus. of either freshly cooked as- paragus, or canned, or shredded lettuce, Slip over the stalks a ring of green pepper.

A perfect boon is that lovely pint; hot -house rhubarb, witch i, on the inarltet,'satisfying our pal- ates now and . giving promise of mote to follow, Rhubarb 'Shortcake If you never. tried a shortcake of this delicious spring fruit, by all meaa do so. Make a ricin shortcake dough (for those who htive filed these recipes you will have just the one you , wish). Cook the rhubarb in the same pro- portions as in the trifle. Cool the rhubarb and place between lay- ers ayers of shortcake, Serve either with whipped cream or custard as above recipe. Maple Syrup Cream Pie Everyone is watching now for the announcement the sap is run- ning and the glad news that Maple Syrup is on the market. After you have relished that first taste of syrup and homemade bread or rolls, try this dessert and I ani sure you will agree it is truly Canadian: - 1% cups rich milk li cup maple syrup 2% tablespoons Benson's corn- starch (again watch Level measuring) 3 egg yolks teaspoon salt .?ca cup rolled pecans 1 tablespoon butter Place milk, salt, maple syrup and butter in double boiler.

'Siren suits" — loose trousers and matching blous- c.s cut ou the stylo of windbreakers — are an example. The need for their use in air raids has not arisen, but women are finding them com• fortablo and useful for house wear. QUICK -CHANGE OUTFITS It is quite possible the army' simplified battle dress will outlive the tear to be taken up by civilians. It would be suitable for sports wear, golf and hiking, for instance, If not for everyday business wear. Aar raids in the last war wore not sufficiently widespread to pro- duce a fashion, but the need for a quick change after a day's work away from home led women in the Services to take up the slip-on frock. The fashion developed and stayed. Hair bobbing was another child of the last lvar. Many other present day fasuions suns their origins in wars, Jack• boot., for instance, were first do- signed to guard cavalrymen's feet from sword cuts. Napoleon's Egyp- tian campaign brought the turban and other Oriental styles to Paris and Tater to the rest of the civiliz- ed world.
