W. J. Dickson, president of Cana­ dian News, said he had been notified such a step would be taken by Love 'StbrJS Western Story,* Popular,’’Ar­ gosy, Flynn’s, Adventure and Cal­ gary Eye-Opener. He considered that practically all magazines taxed at 15 cents per copy would be discontinued by retail.deal­ ers, except for specific orders from customers. Magazine readers may switch to English magazines as a result of the newly-announced tariffs, believed C. W. Playfair, president of Western News Agency. He forecast that a decreased price could be allowed for the English magazines if increased demand warranted. 25 YEARS AGO The Ross-Taylor Co, are installing an electric dynamo to light their factory so as to run full time, Mr, Geo.

Sunday School Lesson THE MACEDONIAN CALL Bunday, Oct. 4.—Acts 15:36 to 16:15; Romans 1/5:18-2 L Goldci: Text Go ye therefore, and teach all na­ tions* (Matt. 28:19). “Every man’s life a plan of God” —“that was the title of a sermon preached more than half a century ago by Horace Bushnell of New England, which had a profound and far-reaching influence. But then can break with the plans of God lias hiade for theiii, To learn and fol­ low His plans means blessing and success. To -break with His plans means failure odi disaster, Paul was one of the men. whose life purpose and passion was to- discover and do the will of God. . As he fell pros- irate on the way Jp Damascus before the glory of the revealed Christ he asked, “Lord-, what wilt Thou have me to do?” It was a lifelong ques­ tion. with PauL with lifelong obed­ ience to the answers given by his Lord. Why should we not all have the joy and thrill and adventurous achievement that may he ours by fallowing the same course? Paul and Barnalbas had completed their first missionary journey, and they believed it would1 be well to “go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have .preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do.” A young man named John Mark had bean with them as their attendant and helper during part of their first journey, and then had turned his back on the missionary enterprise and' left them, returning to Jerusalem (Acts 12:25; 13;5, 113. Barnabas now thought it. would foe well to take the young man with them again; Piaui questioned the wisdom of this. The two mission­ aries could not come to an agree­ ment, “and the contention was so Sharp between them, that they de­ parted asunder one from the other,” Barnabas took Mark with him and palled for Cyprus. Piaui “chose Si'las and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.’’ The Scripture makes no comment on the right or wrong of this re­ grettable disagreement betwen swjli stalwart men of the fait'hi and am­ bassadors of the cross at Paul and Btarnalbas. It' simply records the historical fact without comment, as so often in othei' Scripture incidents But it is significant, as Dr. Scho­ field notes, that Barnabas drops out of the Bible story from this point on, being heard of no more. Where­ as Paul’s extraordinary missionary experiences fill the rest of the book of Acts, and his Epistles make la large part of the New Testament. It will help to make these mis­ sionary journeys more real and vivid to the class if they are traced on the map, as can readily be done. The first missionary journey of Paul and Barnabas was from. Anitoch (on the northern:coast of .Syria) to Salamis on the Island of Cyprus; then .across Cyprus to PaphoS; then northwest through the Mediterranean to Perga in Pamphylia, Where John Mark met them North again to Anitoch in. Pisidia, where Paul preached his great sermon in the synagogue of the Jews, tracing the whole history of Israel, and making a city-wide sensation resulting in many conver- sonsions and open persecution. It Wias a turning point,in the' history of Christianity, as Christian missions were forced to turn from the Jews to the Gentiles* Incohium followed, with more persecutions, then Lystra and Derhe, Paul havng. been stoned and left for dead at Lystra. The return to Anitoch in Syria ended that momentous first missionary campaign by the Christian Church. To Denbe and Lystra Paul now re­ turns on his second missionary jour­ ney, taking Salas with, him, and here young Timothy is discovered, men­ tioned as “a certain disciple.” Later references to Timothy indicate that Paul had led him to Christ, and the young man was a lifelong friend and disciple of the great misisonary, evidently becoming an outstanding figure in the early Christian Church. Now coms a striking incident of Paul’s Divine guidance. Taking 'Tim­ othy with them, Paul and Silas set out through Phrygia and the region of Galatta, but “were forbidden of the .Holy Ghost to preach the word of Asia,” Asia being the name of one of the Provinces or main divi­ sions of what we now call Asia Min­ or. Moving on to Mysia,, in the northern part of Asia, tlie mission­ aries attempted to go into Bitliyna, the great province On the Southern shores of the Black Sea. “But the spirit suffered them not.” The class miay be ask how Paul was "forbidden of the Holy. Ghost” to do this or that. The Bible does not tell us just how the Holy Spirit communicated His will to Paul, whether in audible words or by an inner leading or conviction, The important fact is that the Holy Spir­ it Was in. charge of this missionary journey, as He would foe of all Chris­ tian missions, if missionaries were .always yielded ‘fully to Him. And the Holy Spirit can always commun­ icate His will and leading to truly surrendered, sensitively listening, ■children of God, who are eager to get His guidance. .We are plainly told what happen­ ed them. Paul had a vision in the night: .A man of Macedonia appear­ ed and pleaded, “Come over in Mace­ donia and help us.” The missionar­ ies then were sure the Lord was calling them to preach the Gospel In Europe, and they lost no time in sailng across the Aegean sea from Troas to Stanothnaeia, an island, then to Macedonia, just north of Achaia or Greece, Here they mov­ ed north to Neapolis and Phillippi, a leading city, where a wealthy wo­ man, Lydia, seller of purple, became the first Christian convert in Eur­ ope, .She and her whole household were saved, and hecame hospitable and influential friends of the mis­ sionaries.
