Sovereignty. Golden Text. -God so loved the world, that He gave His only begot- ten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have et- ernal life.- John 3:16. I. THE DIVINE PORTRAIT RE- VIEW. -Each leson of the quarter contri- butes something to the portrait of Je- sus Christ. In studying this closing half of Luke's Gospel we have, if we have been thoughtful, built up a clear picture of the world's Saviour. An excellent way to conduct the review is to divide the lessons of the quar- ter .among the members of the class, asking each to speak to the class (what he has to say may be written) about the side of Christ's character ▪ imost prominent in the lesson assign- ed him. The temperance lesson may be omitted from the review, and if you have fewer than eleven in the class, some of the members will han- g die two lessons each; while if you 1 have more than eleven pupils, the same lesson may be assigned to two pupils. The following list may be helpful. Lesson 1. The of Jesus. I' Lesson II. The forgiving Love of R▪ I Jesus. • Lesson -III. The Generosity of Je- a sus. W Lesson. IV. The Prayerfulness of ®.

Necessarily the project of collecting and assembling the data is fraught with difficulties, and must always fall short of being of the char- acter of list minute information. In a recently published summary, made from official data by.13e11 Telephone System statisticians, world telephone figures are now available up to the date of January 1st, 1930. North America has 21,695,376 tele- phones, or 62.84% of the world to- tal, a number that is allnost twice the total of all other countries. Canada with 14.2 telephones for each 100 of population comes second in telephone development to the United States, who leads the world with 16,4 tele- phones per 100 ' of its inhabitants, New Zealand comes third with 10.3, followed by Denmark with 9.6, Swe- den with 8,3 and. Australia with 7,9 telephones per 100 inhabitants, Canada with 1,399,986 ranks fourth in absolute number of telephones be- ing led only by United States, Ger- many and Great Britain. But in Ger- many and Great Britain the number of telephones per 100 population is only 5.0 and 4.1 respectively. It is interesting to note that in Canada 82 per cent and in United States 100 per cent. of the telephones are under pri- vate ownership and operation, while in Germany and Great Britain all telephones arc operated by the gov- er•ntnent. Argentina leads South Am- erica in telephone development with 2.5 per 100 inhabitants, a density ex- actly equal to that of France. Japan easily leads the Asiatic countries but has only 1.4 telephones per 100 peo- ple. In the provision of telephone facil- ities for cities of 50,000 people and over, Canada leads the world. With 23.3 telephones per 100 inhabitants in these communities its closest rival is the United States with 22,9, .Til the smaller towns and villages Canada ranks second, with 10:I 'telephones per 100 people, being• led only by 'United States, with 12.1 tele - es' per 100 people. Thus the in - This happiness in part is mine, Already saved from low design, From every creature -love; Blest with the scorn of finite good, ibly soul is lightened sof its load, And seekest the things above. The things eternal I pursue, My happiness beyond the view Of those who basely pant; The things by nature felt and seen, Their honors, wealth and pleasures mean, I neither have nor want. There is my house and portion fair; My treasure and• my heart are there, And my abiding home; For me my elder brethren stay, And angels beckon me away, And Jesus bids me comer I conte, thy servant, Lord, replies; I conte to meet Thee in the skies, And claim my heavenly rest'! Soon will the pilgrim's journey end; Then, 0 my Saviour, brother, Friend, Receive me to Thy breast! The Reverend John Wesley and his brother Charles are said to have had an arrangement, according to which their hymns were to be printed with- out signature to distinguish one writ- er from the other. As a result, there has always been a degree ,of doubt in attributing Wesleyan hymns to one or the other brother, excepting in the case of those concerning which cir- cumstantial evidence is conclusive as to the authorship. Probably, however, the current op- inion, is correct, that, while Charles Wesley' was the major poet of the 0 GET RID OF CONSTIPATION Use Dr. Carter's famoue Little Liver Pills, Entirely Vegetable.. ;Geode but effective.

But it need not he forgotten that some of the most valuable hymns em- ployed by English-speaking Christ- ians, French and Spanish were made by John Wesley. "Lo, God is Here," "0, Thou, to Whose All -searching Sight," "Commit Thou All Thy Griefs," may be mentioned as exam- ples. Certainly he could have writ- ten, probably he did write, many a fine hymn for the comfort and assist- ance, of souls struggling heavenward. 'To John Wesley is to be assigned the chief praise for the editing of the Wesleyan Hymnbook. He wrote the scholarly, and, at times, caustic in- troduction to the book in which he sternly warns against any altering of the hymns, although he was, probab- y, himself the greatest of all sinners 'n that respect, There is apparently good reason for associating John Wesley's name with the, pilgrims' hymn quoted here- with. Evidence submitted to him re- cently appears, to the present writer, to be conclusive upon the subject. Some insist that not John but Char- les was its author, but apparently the contrary opinion will have to prevail in the future. Only part of the long hymn is suit- ed for public service, some ..of the verses, always omitted in the hymn- books, referring to matters purely personal, as for instance the two be- ginning: "I have no babes to hold me here," and "No foot of land do I possess, No cottage in the wilderness, A poor wayfaring man." It was in 1750 or thereabouts, he married Mrs. Vizelle, a widow with four children, who proved a quar- relsome, troublesome spouse, running away from him several times, and, in 1771, going off for good. She lived for ten years after that. John Wes- ley never had any children. This hymn appears to have been written about the year 1764, when John Wesley's lot would have been considered anything but happy from a worldly point of view. Success had not then crowned his incessant labors Th finest Orange Pekoe t ° • costs less than "4 timers 1 ORANGE PEKOE BLEND TLA `Fresh from the gardens' and it was the' fashion to abuse him and his followersas disturbers of the peace and fanatical breakers of church law. There were disturbances among his own followers,.: discussions and bickering on all sides. In February of that year, the most trying of times for travelling' in mid- land or northern England, he set out to travel on horseback from Bristol to Newcastle,; a matter of-sonae three or four hundred miles.' For ten drea- ry days he plodded along, Making de- tours where brooks had swollen over their banks and tarried -away bridges, trespassing through fields where roads were impassable, Where open country was encountered as on Al- dridge Heath and Cannock Chase in Staffordshi-re, 'he met with cold northerly winds, which encrusted him with ice from head to foot, At Leeds aa mob collected and pelted him with whatever missies came first to hand. Nevertheless he arrived at Newcastle on February 26th, 'free from every anxious thought from worldly hope It has been computed that before death touched him in his eighty- eighth year, he had. travelled over 225,000 miles, a good part of it on horseback. His biographers state that they do not believe "an instance could be found during the space of fifty years wherein the severest wea- ther hindered him for one day." A happy, busy pilgrim, no one could have been found better qualified in worldly circumstances to write his Pilgrim's Hymn. The t'un'e' Esca Viatorum was com- posed by that master of sacred har- monies, the Rev. Dr. Dykes, of. St. Oswald's church, Durham.

A signal cabin on the main line, at the outskirts of the cityl houses the control system. The operator faces' a board, shown in the top pieture, which eonsists of a number of electric levers for opening and closing switches and also has 20 rotary buttons, for operating the lights of a like number of signals at various points on the trackage covered, By the same board, the operator is able to locate his train or trains at arty moment. It will be noted that the control board is praetieally a map of the tunnel tracks, the numbers on it corresponding to those on the signal posts.
