Psalm 92 4. •THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time,—The Apostle Peter wrote eeond Epistle in A.D. 66. Place.—We do not know from what place this epistle was writ- ten, and we probably never will be able to determine it. The Salutation "Simon .Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ. To then - that have obtained a like prec- ious faith with us in the righteous- ness of our God and the Saviour Jesus Christ.' There can be. ato growth at all in the pi,Ysical sense, for example. unless there is physical life as the basis of it. .And so it is in the spiritual sense. There can he no spirtnaI growth without spiritual life preceding it. And there can be no spiritnal life except through the new birth. And the new birth comes as we obtain this 'precious faith: Faithful Service "Grace to you antl.peaee be mul- tiplied -in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord." This is an srt'.nstolic salutation and is the way in which nearly all the epist las of the• New Testament begins. "Dile true knowledge of Go,b can om1Y come: of faithful service.

A Christian's Duty "Yea, and for this very -atti=c adding on your part all diligence." Diligence is that sort of endeavor which springs from a sense of duty. "In your faith supply v ir- 'tine." Virtue means the best de- veloprnent of such power as a min possesses. "And in your virtue knowledge" Knowledge here prob- ably means spiritual discernment as to what is right and what Is wrong in all things. "And in your knowledge self-control." Self-con- trol is really temperance in all things. "Auer in your self-control Itatien.ce." Patience grows out of self-eontroi. "And in your patience godliness." This last word strictly means true reverence for God. "Anel in. your godliness' brotherly kindness; and in your brotherly :kindness love" The last-named love is that highest love, the love el God to men, which is set tip as the ideal toward which His ser- vants are to constantly press for- ward. Our love for our feila\s is to be es God's love for es, not dependent 011 • their worthiness ot It, and not deterred by their dis- regard of it. • Knowledge From Growth "For if these things ore yours and ae'acand, they may make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus ("heist.."

The new series heard over CBC outlets every IKdnday evening at 3.30 and titled "1943 Food Prospects"' will inform. Can adian farmerson agriculture's aebi.evements to, date and give them an idea ofwhat is expected in the future. The series ehould, prove equally of interest ,to 'the urban housewife. ' Every radio announcer at some time or other gets into trouble. with his listeners over pronuncia- tion. In Wales there is a delight - fel, little village bearing the name L 1,a ofaieph.11gywnlYygogertyllan le- wbw'Ilan tisiliogogocla. Recently, Da- vid Grenfell, the chairman of the Welsh Committee in the British House of Commons remarked that he didn't like the way BBC an- nouncers pronounced the mane of this dainty morsel of Welsh coun- tryside. He went on to explain that while many announcers. pronounc- ed fancy French, German, Spanish and Russian and other continental names reasonably well, few of them could pronounce Welsh words beginning witth "LI" with' any degree of fidelity. I3et'e's how you do it—according to Mr. Gren- fell, just stick the tip of your tongue on the roof of the mouth` and blow out both cheeks like a goose. lis easier to do it right, he says, if you've got loose lower' teeth! s+ ivings. "For he that lacketh these things is blind, seeing only what is near." Tha word blind is here applied figrnatively to the ret i n d. "Ilavin; forgotten the elransing from his old sins." The rrittn who forgets this cleansing of his soul and acts as if he were in his natural elate with no power to rr'sist temptation does in fact ignore what God has done for hint and treats the tins of long ago as though they were toil In'eecnt. A True -Christian 'Wherefore, l,rr: three, give the male diligence to make your coil- ing and electinn auto: for if ye do these things, ye shall never stumble. For thus shall be richly suh,plied unto you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." As we close this lesson. -we ought to remember one thing. This passage is a revelation of the •will of God for us. This is not what some philosopher has pictured, an impossible idealistic life. This is a portrait of a true Christian, drawn by the Apostle Peter, snider the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. If Peter could live this kind of life, so can the .rest of us; if this is the life God would have ns live, He will enable us to live it, if we so choose. No Tourist Traffic On Akan Highway : Only Civilian Motorists Are Those On War Duty Fly Pests Menace Health Of Family Early Action Urged to Ensure Effective Control The season for flies—the coni - mon pestiferous, disease -carving, house fly—is upon usNow at the very beginning of summer is the • • beet time to destrey flies. Every fly killed- now is as good as a million or more killed later on in the season. Calculators figure that the progeny of one. pair of flies • mightequal five and a' half billion by September if ,not interfered with in any way, and if,breeding places were favorable. A Universal Pest All over the world wherever mean hae gone the common house fly has gone, too, Musca domes - Mee, which ins the scientific name. for this universal pest, occurs ' always in assoeiation with the. human family. • There :are other .flies, notably the stable fly, and . the bluebottle. .'hey are eels - lives, but not the close associates of mankind that the common house fly is. Fly Tracks Dirt and Diseaie If every housewife in the land .could see. a common house fly - mamagnified to one hundred times its natural size, : she would feel such horror and disgust she would never rest while there was one of them around the place. For the fine invisible hairs revealed by the microscope, hairs that clothe its feet, legs and under- parts, are found to be alive with geihns and contaminated with un- speakable impurities. Their feet are equipped with sticky pads to enable them to- cling to 'such places as walls and ceilings. Imagine the trail of diirt and dis- ease a sufficiently powerful microscope would show! Grave Danger to Babies "There is probably no 'greater sourci: of danger to a baby than the disease germs collected by the, wanderings of the house fly and transported to the foods and persons of its innocent victims," The Asan Highway across Can- ada to Alaska traverses some of the most beautiful country on this continent, yet it cannot be con- sidered at this time as a va.ation ''ass' paradise observes Tha Netve,r�t says a well-known medical offi- cer of health. "Flies trill carry on their feet, legs and body, and in the alimentary canal, the spe- cific &•ernes causing typhoid. fever, eholera, infantile diarrhoea, tube- culosis and other diseases. The house fly is also suspected of transmitting infantile paralysis (poliomyelitis). .These organisms may be deposited in the food, because flies are fond of all hu- man foods, both liquid and solid, and because they are active in- -seets, travelling extensively* and York Sun, .Authorities in both 111e flitting about from place to place United States and Canada have been receiving requests fur per- mission to motor over Jim Alcan, and have. of worse, refused nearly all of thein.

Peek At Radar Rader, elle of the most heavily curtained of tear secrets, was bared for a quick peck by the army and navy, reports Ting Magazine. The word stands for "radio detecting and ranging." Basis of operation, a high -fee- queney radio ray, scanning air or seen, bounces back from objects it strikes: e.g., ships or planes. Radar treasures the infinitesimal fraction of a second this takes (at 186;000 miles an hold'), thus ealculates diaitance as well as direction. Both Britain and Ger- many have similes, devices, with rapidity. Th€y wipe their 1 feet, perhaps bearing myriads of disease germs, on everything they touch. 'When we ponder over the source from. which flies come and their filthy habits, ere should not allow them to live in a kitchen or a dining• room any longer than it is absolutely necessary to kill them." Methods of Fly Control Do not throw dish water or scrub water near the house, or in the back yard. Nothing attracts flies more quickly. Sink a box with a hinged cover batt no bot- tom in the ground, and pout waste water into this box to soak away. Keep the lid down and the flies , out. Screen the doors and windows of your house with mosquito net- ting. In the, army refuse is burned lir buried, and the same practice • should be followed in civilian Iife, except of course • where garbage is collected be the municipality. , Food, 'water and milk supplies should be earefally protected from :flies. Wilson's FIy Pads, properly distributed about the house in plates of water, will attract and kill any flies that manage to get into the house despite the screens. Tables, sink -boards; pantry shelves or any place Where food is set. —and where flies have crawled ---should be cleaned with a scrubbing brush and email or disinfectants. Adherence to these simple Mules of hygiene will more than repay the thought and effort by safeguarding the nation ;s Most precious asset, the health of our people.
