It has been said that wher- ever Paul went he bad either a` revival or a riot. In Ephesus he had both and the revival was in a sense the cauee of the riot. Paul had visited briefly at Ephesus On his return from Corinth on his second miesion- ary journey. Now on his third. Missionary journey he comes Ephesus, the third largest city in the Roman Empire. As usual he entered the synagogue, Af- ter three months, opposition be- came so acute that he retired to, a. sehool where he continued teaching for two years, The sick 'e were . healed and evil -spirits were cast out. Seven sons, expee cietso began to use the name of' Jeeus to cast out dein:ins but. were" 'badly beaten b'y a eemon possessed man. Many turned Mom paganism to Jesus Christ. any brought their books of magic and burned them in a huge bonere. The total cost of" these approximated, the wages• of 136 laborets for' a year. The city was greatly moved," The silversmiths .who made silver' shrines for the goddess Diana saw their business falling off. Demetrius, their leader, made a rousing speech inciting them to, anger. To the public .they did not emphasize the money angle• but rather the religions, shout- ing, "Great is. Diane: of the Ephesians." They' caught two• of Paul's companions; Steen a. riot was on. • "Some therefore cried one thing, and some an- other: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together." The town clerk finally quieted the people. The lesson closes With a se- lection from the letter Paul. later wrote to the church at Ephesus. In it he says. "Be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit," On a conservative esti- mate, 16 of every 1000 adults in Canada are alcoholics. Sixty per cent cif these 150,000 are in the semi-skilled, skilled, white collar, professional, managerial and proprietary occupational groups. But you need never be- come an alcoholic if you heed the warning of Solomon: "Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his col- our in the cup, when it moveth itself aright. At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder," Proverbs 23:31.32.

Wet, -Socks *Clue' To- Beach Murder . Change of Plans Robert Ledru, famous French detective of the Surete, Paris, was on holiday. at Le Havre. He had just recovered 'from a nervous breakdown caused by long hours probing a murder mystery, and had been advised to rest for a month. One morning Ledru awoke' in his hotel room after twelve hours' sleep and, as' he was put- ting on his socks, ielt that they were damp. At the time he did not think anything more about ' it. Late in the afternoon he re- ceived a telegram from his su- perior in Paris stating that the body of a man had been` found shot dead on teee beach at Saint Addresse The man had ap- parently gone midnight l ewim- „ swim- ming, The Surete asked if Ledru would assist the local police in solving the murder. Ledru established that the murdered man was not rich and that he had many friends but no enemies. His .clothes 'Were left by him -in a neat pile on the beach; there was money in his pockets and a gold watch., but nothing had been disturbed: It seemed, to be a motiveless crime. The only clues found by the polcie were footprints which it was obvious had been made by the murderer because they did not fit those of the dead Man and because they were the only footprints near the victim, The.footprints were clearly imprinted in the wet earid and apparently, the man who made them had been in his stockinged feet, Ballistics experts said that the fatal bullet had been fired troth a Luger revolver, a common type of weapon such as was' is= sued to -all members of the po- lice force.

You have to hand it to the starlings — they make the most of every oppor- tunity, whether its in a hen- house or a mailbox. And another items of bird lore. The swallows returned a week .ago -- May 1st to be exact. et 'was far too cold tor the stable doors to be left open at the top. Partner thought he might have to cut a hole in the boards so The swallows could get in and out. But they found a broken window - pane and were soon busily engaged building their wonderful nests on the rough Old beams in the barn. So we have swallows and starlings nesting but we still haven't beard the frogs. Nor is there eine sign of spring seeding around here as we had another heavy rain recently. The land is getting, pretty well water-logged. However, as far as we are concerned we have plenty to occupy our time even if it is wet outside. We have our grand- - son here on a visit. Dee and Art Came yesterday and left David behind fee' a while. We won- dered what would happen when he woke up this morning and found Mummy and Daddy gone. l'eertunately he was quite happy and contented so we think the first real test is over, Just the same I expect by next week I shall possibly have a lot more to write about as I think Grandma IS in for a very busy week, How- ever, Granded will do his share if the weather is fit for Dave to go out. Or if we get com- pletely run off our legs joy and Bob are ready to respend to an SOS anytime. Last week was a busy week too. One day in Toronto -- and of course it rained, And on Fri- day night a unique experience —at least for me. I was invited to. the first County Rally of the Girl Guides in Halton. It was held' in Burlington and There were nearly a thousand Guides taking part. Such an excited group of youngsters, and all very much in earnest. There were folk dances; flag drills, a first aid pageant and twenty - one badge demonstrations. The grand finale was the campfire, with the Guides circling the impro- vised camp fire and singing songs with extraordinary suc- cess, considering there had been no rehearsal and the companies were in most cases unknown to each other. It was an excellent demonstration of the possibility of group work following good training and discipline in each company. Our local group — of which daughter was one of the first members — demonstrated the Hiker's Badg e' and . set about building a campfire with skill and intelligence. Others were equally good but we Must admit the "Dairymaids" stole the show. Malk maids, stable boys and farm hands came on to the scene leading a refrac- tory cow complete with horns and a well-filled udder! Var- ious attempts were made to "milk" Bossy who alternately sat down on her haunches, got up and kicked, or pranced around every which-way. 'It was so well done and of course the audience howled with laugh- ter. The next two days my time was taken up helping two octo- genarian ladies who had lost an octogenarian brother. All three had led busy and useful lives, and although they are all over eighty, this is the first break in their family circle. Those who are left feel very lonely indeed. Well, my grandson has got tired of watching television and is now busily engaged bringing his whole collection of toys into the living room, That is, when he isn't loving Robbie to death or walking around with his grandfather's gloves on his two wee hands, With such an active youngster I am sure his mother is glad of a little respite es- pecially as she had a most awful cold yesterday, Ah, here comes Mitchie - White so' I expect he will get a little more attention than he is likely to welcome, What amazes the is the under- standing that seems to exist be- tween Chldren arid domestic ani male.

It was revealed during the sub- sequent investigation that Ledru had left the hotel in his sleep and that he had shot Monet while asleeP, returned to the hotel, and discarded the wet socks and gone back to sleep— without once being aware of what he was doing! Ledru was not tried for mur- der; instead he was sent to a farm in the Country Where he was given protection against himself for he was A danger to the public—but only when he was •asleep, lde died having spent fifty years on the. farm where he was put under guard only while be was fast asleep! A few monthe ago in Ken. tucky, 16-year-old Jo Ann Niger dreamed' that burglars had broken into her home and that her family was being murdered. She left. her 'bed, seized two revolvers and dashed into the "dream battle" during which she fired ten shots, killing her father and six-year-old brother, and seriously injuring her mother. The girl was , arrested and charged with murder, but the. d e f eno e brought conclusive.' evidence that she had had pieeie- e.vlous nightmares and that ghee .eevas a confirmed sleep-walleer.se h. This evidence and the fact:' that the prosecution could offer t" no motive at all, resulted in her being acquitted. An equally odd case was that of John Cooke,, of Denver, Col- orado, who stabbed himself four &ries while 'fast asleep: A few minutes before he died lie awoke and revealed to the eoe-* for and nurses trying to save his life that he had dreamed Thal he was surrounded by en- emies who were going to tor- ' ture him: In desperation and, facing torture he had grabbed up a knife in his dream and stabbed himself fatally. Narcotics are being used to probe the subconscious and bring out incidents ,which peo- ple have forgotten many years ago. But 33 - year - old Henry Chancey, a railway clerk in Boston, was questioned while he was asleep to solve a rays- " tery which he knew nothing abolit' While awake. Chancey reported the disap- pearance of 39,000. 'dollars, and the Federal Bureau of InVesti.. gation were convinced that he had stolen the money, But they couldn't prove a thing against Chancey, who'had an unblerre- eished record and who, welcomed their most searching, questions. It was a purely chance re- mark that put the"F.B.I. on the right trail. Someone said to `Chancey: "Are you • sure you didn't take the money while you were sleep-walking?" The F.B.I. established that Chancey had for Many years been • a confirmed sleepwalker and that he did many odd and- unaccountable things during his lengthy' bouts of somnambulism. With his full permission they sat in his home one night and waited until he fell asleep, then they eaestiOned him closely about the money. To the astonsihrnent of • the Officers, Chancey, who was ob- viously in a deep sleep, replied to all their questions, and a lit- tle later when they said to' him, "Lead us to the place Where you put• -the money," he arose it his sleep and left the house. The detectives., trailed along behind" osier' rough ground for eight miles, until Chancey be- gan to dig in soft earth and .un- covered the bags of money! 'Then he turned around to re- trace his steps but one of the detectives slapped him sharply on the back to awaken him. After several slaps Chancey, awoke from the deep sleep. He' had no 'idea of how he, got where he was, nor of hoW the. money had been placed there..., Try Something New Usually on a special page• of the seed catalogue will be listed • brand new varieties and nevel- ties., Among these will be the All-American winners for this year. These are new flowerseand vegetables that in.Canadian and American field trials last year were awarded the most points. A few 'of these Will certainly add colour and' inierest to any' border. • In the vegetable lines there are a whole lot of improved productions. New, faster grow- ing and crisper .radish, more tender carrots, new 'beans, beets and corn. Over the years -plant breeders have given us tre- mendous improvement in all vegetables. Not only are the va- rieties grown today far more tender than those of a genera- tion ago, but they are also much earlier end more disease resis- tant. With these it is' possible to have a good garden with much variety in area's where it was hardly safe to risk any- thing but the toughest things before. This.progress has meant more to Canada than most countries because our growing season is so -short. Fertilizer Commercial `fertilizers contain three main elements; nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. These are usually indicated in a formula on the bag or box, thus 2-4-6 or 6-4-2 or some similar combination. The first figure indicates the amount of nitrogen, the second phosphoric acid and the last the proportion of potash. If, for example, we want to encourage green growth as in grass, lettuce, cabbage and such, we choose a fertilizer high in the first' 'mentioned element. If it is root growth we are in- terested in, such as beets and potatoes; we use more potash. Sometimes certain soils are very deficient in one of these ele- ments and we naturally select a fertilizer to remedy that defi- ciency., Chemical fertilizer is potent stuff and it should be handled carefully and according to die 'sections: Results are literally amazing. It will start flOWers and vegetables growing quickly, will make grass green almost overnight. The safest Way 'to epply to lawns and flower beds is to dissolve in Water and sprinkle during or just 'before 6 rain. This prevents any burning injury, to "the grass or flowers.
