Had Traffic Officer Robinson been ar- ound at that time he could have had scores of drivers on the gourt car- pet for wilfully disregarding the stop signal. Strange as it may seem, the busy bees were the only ones to ob- serve the sign at that point—Walk- erton Herald -Times.

'The efforts of the snake to es- cape and the work of the spider in keeping it a prisdner until the snake was exhausted from lack of nourish- ment, has been the subject of vari- nes news dispatches. In Palmerston a somewhat similar struggle has been taking place except that the prisoner is a large worm. The spider has kept close guard over the worm and keeps busy spinning additional web when the worm damages that already spun. Mr. W. Desmond has been an inter- ested watcher of this incident for some time.—Palmerston Spectator. FOURTH QUARTER LESSON 1 OCTOBER 2 THE CHRISTIAN'S DEVOTION- AL 'LIFE. -Matt 6:5-15; 2 Tim. 3: 14-17.

The scribes and Pharisees, whose religion consisted chiefly in show and externals. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues. Wherever they might be when the three hours of prayer arrived -9 a.m., noon, and 3 p.m. And in the corners of the streets, that they may been seen of men. At the street corners there would be the largest crowds to note their piety. Verily I say unto you, they have re- ceived their reward. Prayer that is right and acceptable with God does not depend upon ,posture, elegance or aptness of 'expression, inventiveness of thought or form, but upon the simple and genuine outpouring of the spirit of the man in the presence of the Spirit of God." But thou, when thou prayest, en- ter into thine inner chamber. Thy "closet," a closed place where no one but God can see you. And having shuil thy door. Having shut out all the frets and worries and distract- ions of life. Pray to thy Father who is in. secret. Who is to be known in the inward life. And thy Father who seeth in secret. Who knows, as men do not, all the thoughts and intents of the heart. Shall recompense thee. Of course this verse does not forbid public prayer, which is a anode of prompting and guiding private pray- er; but public or social prayer is fruitless unless preceeded and accom- panied by the private prayers of God's children. And in praying use not vain. repe- titions, as the Gentiles do. For ex- emple, the Buddhist "prayer wheel," containing on the inside a roll of printed prayers, and every revolut- ion of the wheel is thought to "pray" the prayers. For they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. "We repeat supplications, not in order to secure God's atten- tion, as if He might grant at the third supplication what He refused at the first; but in order to secure our own attention." Be not therefore like unto them, for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask Him. A father knows what is best for his child, and after he has given his decision he does not want to be teased, but he does want to tack over his child's desires with his child, that the two may settle toge- ther on what is best. And after tbis, manner therefore pray ye. Not necessarily in these words, but with his simplicity and directness and in this spirit. Our Father who art in heaven. Note that God is our Father, and we are to pray "bring us," "forgive us," "bring us." For Fatherhood of God involv- es a ' spiritual communion among. those who are sons and daughters of the Lord Almighty. Hallowed be thy name. "It would mean much if 'be- fore we take upon our lips the Name of God, we should stop an instant, and try to think what we are about to say." Thy kingdom come. Do the little everyday duties now, and daily and strenuously, so you will promote that kingdom most effectually, and the great duties will come to you if God wills, Thy will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. "Some would cut off the half of this prayer. 'Thy will be done on. earth' is the motto of many who want great changes on earth, who who des not care inueh about heaven. We wish to take the whole prayer as it came from the 41 1 PEKOE 6EEND 1, "Fresh from the Gardens" lips of our Lord. He wishes earth to be like heaven, and man like God. Give us this, day our daily bread. We are not taught to ask for cake, or even for a year's supply of bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven' our debtors. This first clause occasions no surprise. The normal man would have won- dered if it had been omitted. It is the conclusion of the sentence that gives us pause, "As we forgive our debtors," These two things God's forgiveness of you and your forgive- ness of your brother — hath God joined together and none .can put them asunder. And bring us not into temptation. Temptation may be our appointed discipline; but no one who has ev- er seriously resisted it will wish to meet it again, whether he has been victorious or no. For we know too well in our heart of hearts that we are all to likely to fail itx our hour of trial. But deliver us from the ev- il one (or "evil"). To every finite spirit there is a breaking strain, and it is right for ars to pray that God will mercifully save us from these extremities of trial. For if ye forgive men their tres- passes, your heavenly Father will al- so forgive you. If we men can also iso forgive our fellow -men, that is good reason for believing that God will be able to forgive us. But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses, It is a seri- ous and solemn thought that if we carry: around with us an unforgiv rid spirit, then every time we pray this prayer we are actually asking the Father not to forgive our sins! SCRIPTURAL COMMUNION WITH GOD. But abide thou in the things whish thou hast learned and hast been as- sured! of. Thou . contrasts Timothy with the "evil men ` and .impostors," of whom Paul had just written, Knowing of whom thou hast learned them. Religious education is based upon religious personalities. And that from a babe thou hast known the sacred writings. It was a requirement of the rabbis that a child should begin to learn the Law by heart when five years old. Which are able to make thee wise unto sal-. vation through faith which is irt. Christ Jesus. The aim of wisdom is salvation from sin; the agency of wisdom is the Word of God; the, power of wisdom is faith in Christ. Jesus. "T'he Long Life Lamps" Wrotham Utilities Commission Crawford Block.
