Some of the Talking
TN ONE way it's hard for me to talk about
Delco -Light. I'm apt to get enthusiast
and serve a lot `of sound facts that seen too
good to be true. So when I feel myself slip•
ping, I simply turn the microphone over to one
of my good friends and let him do the talking.
For instance:
R. R. No. 3, Clinton, June is, 1928
To whom it may concern:
I purchased my Delco plant in the Fall of leas
and have found it satisfactory in every way, I have
in connection with it about sixty lamps in barn and
house. It also has been doing my pumping since
installed in a very satisfactory manner. "
I am still using my original batteries.

The Lesson In Its Setting.
Time.—Saul's' conversion A,D. 36,
Place.—Damascus, in Syria-, about
4o miles north of Jerusalem,
And it came to pass, that, as 1
made my journey, and drew nigh
unto Damascus. "Tradition, ever.
anxious to fix the exact site of every
great event in history, tells us that.
the awful vision which -struck Saul
blind, but at the same time opened
his spiritual eyes, carne to hint at the
spot now called Es-Salehiyeli, where
the umbrageous gardens of the
magnificent city of Damascus first
break upon eyes that have been
tortured by sterile mountains and
thirsty plains; and half bfinded by
the overpowering Syrian sun. About
noon. It was (and is) customary foor.
travellers in that hot climate to rest
at noon and not to resume their
journey till the declining sun miti-
gated the terrific heat; but Saul, in
his impetuous 'zeal, was pressing on,.
in great haste to get at his wicked
task, Suddenly ' there shone from
heaven a greatlight round about me.
The light wasdazzling and blinding.
It was the great light of deity, which
in ancient days glowed above the
mercy seat in the Most Holy Place,
and which was manifest in many
crucial events during Bible times,
And I fell unto thegrouhd. Saul's
companions (Acts 26: 14.) fell to the
ground with him, all being ' utterly
prostrated by terror by that noise-
less explosion of awful light. And
heard a voice saying unto me. We
are not told definitely that Saul had
not met Jesus in the flesh and heard
Him speak, but this is clearly im-
plied'in the narrative. Saul, Saul,
why persecutest thou Me? The
Hebrew form of Saul's name, Seoul,
is here used, showing that we here
have Christ's exact words, as related
to Luke by Paul himself. Another
evidenced of this is the doubling of
the name, which seemsto have been
characteristic of our Lord, as in
"Simon, Simon" (Luke 22:31) and
"Martha, Martha" (Luke zo:41.)
And I answered, Who art thou,
Lord? Here is another evidence
that Saul had not seen Jesus in the
flesh, for if he had, he would have
recognized him is his glorified body.
And He said .unto me, I am Jesus of
Nazareth, whom thou ' persecutest.
With these words Saul's house of
bigotry and hatred tumbled about
his head.
Arid they that were with me be-
held indeed the light, but they heard
not the voice of Him that spake to
me. In Acts 9: 7 it is said that
Saul's companions heard the voice,
but "voice" is not in the same case
as here, a distinction in the Greek
that cannot be imitated in the Eng-
lish. Saul's companions heard a
sound, but not articulate words;
Saul distinguished the words.
And X said, What shall I do, Lord?
This question is most charcteristic
of Saul the energetic. As soon as
the true `way of life was presented
to him, he was ready to set out upon
it. And the Lord said unto me,
Arise, and go into Damascus. There
in the great city where Saul intend-
ed to (work against Christ, he was
now to work for him. And there it
shall be told thee of all things which
are appointed for thee to. do. It.
was made, clear to Saul from the
hour of his conversion that his life
was a part of the plan of God, that
his new Master had a' definite work
else could do so well, Every Chris-
tian should know this same thing to
for him to perform, one that no one
be true of himself,
Saul's New Commission
And when 'I could not see for the
glory of that light. The blindness
which then came upon Saul, though
the full calamity was supernaturally.
removed three days later, caused
seemingly a weakness ,' of the eyes
which remained •, with Saul through-
out his life, and which many believe
to have been the "thorn in the flesh
of which he wrote. Thus his indis-
tinct vision caused hint to fail to
identify the high priest (Acts 23.5),
and made it necessary for him to
dictatehis epistles to an amanuen-
sis, and, when he signed them, to
sign with "la.rge letters," Being led

the journey on foot.;, for if he hada

"The beauty of Damascus, situated
between barren mountains and the
desert has been sang by many a
poet...
And one Ananias. It is well to
have this name redeemed, and it is
a pity that when we think of it we,
remember the liar of the early
church (Acts 5: x-6), rather than this
good man who helped Saul, A de-
vout man according to the law. He
was a disciple of Christ (Acts 9. lo)
perhaps one who had come from
Jerusalem, though probably before
Saul's persecution; but he remained
a true Jew, faithful to the law of
Moses, as were all the Christians.
Well reported of by all the Jews
that dwelt there. Though a Chris-
tian, he was honored by the Jews of
Damascus, among ,whom there had
not yet been time for such hostility
to Christianity to grow up as had
developed in Jerusalem, fomented
by the , Sanhedrin and the other
Jewish leaders.
Came unto me. In Acts .9: xo-16
Luke tells us, having his informa-
tion from Saul, how a vision of
Christ came to this Ananias, bidding
him go into the street called
Straight, a long, straight street
which down to our oivn day ran
through Damascus, being the princi-
pal thoroughfare of the city. •The
was 'to ask' in the house of Judas
for Saul of Tarsus, Who was blind,
who had been much in prayer, and
who had had a vision . of Ananias
coming and restoring his sight by
placing hands upon him. But
Ananias was terrified by the very
name of Saul, of whose persecuting
errand to Damascus he had heard,
and protested against the errant,
The Lord,, however, reassured him
by telling him that this very Saul
had been chosen by him to carry
His naive before Jews and Gentiles
and even into royal courts, and that
he who had caused so :many Chris-
tians to suffer would himself suffer
many things for the name of Christ.
Therefore Ananias obtained suffi-
cient courage to seek out the dread
messenger of the hostile Sanhedrin.
And standing by me said unto me,
Brother Saul, receive thy sight.
Ananias was evidently moved by the
sight of the blind man. Laying his
hands on him, as Saul in his vision
had seen him doing, and tailing'
him '(Brother," Ananias told him of
the message that had come to .him
from the Lord. And in that very
hour I looked upon him. Scales fell
from his eyes (Acts 9: i8.).
And he said, The God of our
Fathers hath appointed thee to know
His will. Ananias derived this from
the Lord's statement to him that
Saul was "a chosen vessel." And
to see the Righteous One. Jesus
is most fittingly called "The Right-
eous One, for He alone is perfectly
righteous and we maybe righteous
only as His righteousness is 'impart-
ed; to us. And to hear a voice from
His mouth. , Thus Saul not only saw
but heard the Lord Jesus, "as one
born out of due time," (Cor. 15: 8).
For thou shalt be a Witness for
Him unto all men of what thou hast
seen: and heard. All of Christ's
apostles were to be Ilis witnesses of
what they had seen and heard '"(Acts
x: 8), and now Saul no less than
they.
.And now why tamest thou? "Ac-
cording, to the narrative in Acts 9'4 15
the message of Ananias had, already'
proclaini:ed the gift of the Holy
Spirit to Saul, and the favor of God
had been shown in the recovery of
his sight, Arise, and be baptised
and wash away thy sins, calling' oat
bceause. Christ bad commanded the
use of the sacred rite (Matt, 2S: 19,
etc.) as a testimony before men of
faith in Christ.

SMALL ACT OF KINDNESS
IS APPRECIATED
The following` was clipped from the
Hespeler , ierald and has reference to
a small act of kindness in Wingham.
"These days the gardens are in
bloom Peonies, iris roses, etc. are
at their best and delight the hearts ef.
the flower lovers in their own Pro-
duct, iiut how much more pleasure
they can derive from them if they
give pleasure to someone else. The
citizen who has no garden gets de-
light from their fragrance and their
beauty as he passes, the sick person
that shares some of these flowers is
refreshed and. strengthened, Flowers
are a tonic..
On Saturday, while waiting for a
friend to finish his business in •Wing-
ham, we wandered around the side.
1 streets of the town and seeing a gar-
den foil of peony bloom we went over
to see them, and .enquire. the names
of the particularly beautiful blooms.
The young 'couple were extremely
kind and very ready to impart all the
information possible, and then picked
a magnifcent bunch of 'gloom for us
to take home. There is and will la
a kindly feeling for the people for this
gracious act, and they have created
:a kindly feeling for tike town, so that
the act of the individual wields its
jinfluence for the community. The
flower lover who beautifies his place
is not only heaping up beauty which
repays himself but it benefits his cons.
1 triunity as well, and if he shares those
flowers he is doing double duty with.
