He magnified his ma ter, calling him again and agai "The great king, the king of As ria." He.belittled their king and t strength of his defences, and the use lessness of -his depending on Egy help. He further spoke see ingly of their putting their trust i the, God of Israel, comparing him an putting him- on the same level wit the gods of the nations which he ha conquered. He ended by saying that if the gods of the vanquished natio 'could not defend and deliver thei worshippers neither could the God o Israel defend and deliver them._ At this . blasphemous out-potirin Hezekiah's messengers held thei peace but rent their clothes in toke of their grief •at the dishonor done t God, and then they returned and r ported ..to Hezekiah all • they ha heard, Like his messengers, Heze hiak rent his cloths and put on sack cloth, and went into the house of the Lord and there laid the matter before God saying "Thou shalt answer Lord, for;nie." He next sent a mes- senger to Isiah asking his prayers for Judah and Jerusalem. Isiah re- plied, "Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the King- of Assyria have bleesphemed me. Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumor, and return to his own land; and I, will cause hikn to fall by the sword in his own land." Rabshakeln, having . delivered him- self of'his boastful message, left his army before Jerusalem, under the command of the other generals, and, returned for further orders from his king. He found him warring with another tribe, bust he sent messengers with a letter to afezekiah in which he reiterated all that Rabslakeh had said and urged him to surrender to his army. Verse x4—Hezekiah the Good This great crisis in the life of the nation shovaed the manner of man the king was; .On the receipt of this let- ter he read it and then, instead of cal- ling his advisers together to condsicter .what reply should be made to it, 'Fie went into the house of the'Lord and took. counsel again with the king of kings, Sennacherib and Radshekeh intended to frighten Hezekiah away 1 from the Lord but they frightened t him to the Lord. In his prayer he adored the God whom they had bias- st phemed; he called upon God to see o and hear the words Sennacherib had e sent to reproach the living God," who t alone ail God of all the kingdoms of g the earth," He acknowledged the n truth of what Sennaehex'ib had writ- tl ten concerning his victories q'ver oth-o er nations and their gods which were la 'no gods` but the work of men's hands and therefore could be destroyed," r He concluded his prayer by asking e that God would make their cause His d cause and deliver Jerusaleni,. for if no they Were defeated then the- nations o would say the God of Israel was, con- ut quered nas their gods had been. to save"goostherefore, obis a 1.d,ord thattr allGthe, d I£ingdoms of the earth may know 11 sun - n er'ed that um - t we mph the corn voi;ic age •the age 0,115, 0 dark - d to last' OR k he e •,:_ g of Chevrolet's Transportation ‘‘Economical T more economical. to travel by Chevrolet than by any other mea hs.

It • reads' Ass "The council of any township muni - he cipality in which statute labor has been abolished by by-law shall by by- ptylaw .appoint a township road superin- 'r- tendent, who, subject to the direction n of the council, shall'lay out ancl. super - d vise all work and inspect all roads h within the exclusive Jurisdiction of d the Council, and the Minister may direct that out of the highway improv - ns onment fund so per cent. of the salary r: and expenses of such superintendent f' paid by the township shall be reim- bursed by the province." g "We propose to say," explained the ✓ premier, -"where -you abolish statute n labor you must have a road superin- o tendent. Municipalities have and e- where 'a pian is assessed'four or five d 'days statute labor they charged the. - commuted rate whatever it was. God't Answer God hears and answers the l,r,lyer of the afflicted when the. ,k. him.

It was a direct and gracious answer showinghila in• r t, wltxlt lii,llt Gad regarded Sennachcrilc and his boasting, He' said , Jerusalem was under his protection as a virgin daughter 's: I1 her Father's house could' therefore despise and laugh Ito scorn' shaking' her head at such an arrogant enemy as the Assyrian king - God said Seitnaeherib; was his enemy and "no one shall provoke me_with impunity." He further said Sennach- erib's, going : out and. corning in were all under his eye; he was but an in- strument in his hand and he could turn him whithersoever he chase. Now he chose to turn hien round and send hint home disappointed •of his aim. Godthen he' n a e . v Fzez g ck, ah a sign n of his favor towards hike and his peo- ple. The Assyrians in over -running the land had destroyed et s3 c o e l tl 3 le fruits' the field but, "yer shall eat this year such as growth of itself; and the se- cond year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof." Not only was the city to be saved but.the land Was to be left unmolested and they were to be fed '• abundantly. Verse 36--Sennacherib Defeated Prophesis are sometimes long in. 'being fulfilled but in this case the fulfilment followed close on the .pre_ diction. That same night the main. body of the army was slain by an an- gel showing how weak the 'nighties army :is c before Almighty God, hen those within the beselged city rose early in the morning a terrify- ing sight met their eyes. Sennach erkb escaped at this tinge but it was tiot long after that he met death. at the hands of his own sons. WORLD MISSIONS Five hundred of General Fen's 'Christian corporals took a: pledge on. Christmas Day that they would give their blood,, without Charge, to per- sons suffering from pernicious anae- mia and other diseases. Three days later the surgeons at the hospital in connec'tion with the Peking Union' Medical College, find- ing heal need lives of af such woman andia boy telephoned to Nanyuan to General Fpng's camp and asked for two vol- unteers. The corporals made good. Two of then rode to the hospital on their bicycles, submitted to the operation in which each gave something more than a pint of blood. Then they rode back to camp. Townships Abolishing Statute Labor Must Have Road Superintendent ,They got the value and in addition carne to the department with their proofs certified and got by. We , think the' only way is to make clear. where they abolish statute labor their purpose must be to have some .syst emizect method of road building and that should be done under a road superintendent. To enable the tdwn- ships to do that without unduly in- creasing their burden, we inay say we will pay 5o per cent. of the man's salary and 30 per cent. of the cost of the road, so the townships will be touch better off; there will be stand- ardized ^system of roads without ad - cling lnuch to the outlay of the town- ships. But they must abolish statute labor and appoint a road superintend- ent," Answering questions Mr. Ferguson said that the superintendents would work under the supervision of depart- mental officers, They need not be enginneers but they must:have'the qualifications satisfactory to the de- pat'tment. J• G. Lethbridge, West Middlesex, asked: "Could a 'municipality have more than one?" The premier replied, "One in a township." "It niay be possible to carry out such a bill now," commented Hots. F. Biggs. "Sentiment has greatly chang- ed since the people received some as- sistance on county roads from the government. The department in the' ast three or four years encouraged be townships by paying 20 per cent, of , expenditures. If they abolish atnte labor they received 20 per cent f the money paid out by the trCasur- r, whether collected, as it were, from. h6 abolition of statute"`' labor 'or in •enerat taxes, In townships where of abolished we tried to' 'encourage sett to that point by paying on the ther expenditures outside statute bor." "But they commuted statute labor", epeated the premier, "and called it xpenditure on roads and put it to the epartYnent, and the department could t possibly discover it. i have a list £ X31 councils that were getting aid ider the circttnrstances, We desire expend money in a way that 'tvill. o the most good and do it in a per- anent way, If they are going ;; get public money they have to comply that thou art the Lord eVers thou On- strictly, with the requiternents," RIx ANC1N ,i $1' fik1 aiDR NAGE Tile Drainage Act Serr arized Ohje �y c.t,--'i"o make available, ,iok• the individual farmer through their Town- ship Council, money for I3nderdrain ate. r, A Township.
