Zurich Herald, 1939-11-09, Page 7Sunday School Lesson LESSON VII PUTTING GOD'S KINGDOM FIRST Matthew 6;19-34. «olden Text.—Seek ye first Lis kingdom, and his righteousness. Matt. 6:33. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.—Spring, A.D. 27. Place.—On some ' mountain in Palestine, the location of which we, do net know. . 19. Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal: 20. but lay up for yourselves trea- sures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not breakthrough nor steal. The King does not say that it is wrong to lay up; it is the purpose at the back of things which matters. Christ says we are to remember that we are not the child of today, nor of the earth; we are of the eternities. Where Your Treasure h 21. For where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also: Christ warns us against the accumulation of wealth for wealth's sake, be- cause of the influence of that which a man lives f or. on the man hirnself. The heart, he says, seals the fate of the treasure. Life it- self may become a victim of mold and rust and thief. We lay up treasures in Heaven when our lives are bearing fruit, spiritually, when we employ in service for the King the spiritual gifts and talents he has intrusted to us. Inner Illumination 22. The lamp of the body is the eye• if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, hoes, great is the darkness! The single eye sees everything in proper proportion, related to e. whole. Here the body represents the man himself in the complete— ness of his personality, and the eye is the outlook on the world and his fellow men. A good eye is the condition of spiritual illumination. Freedom From Anxiety 24. No man can serve two mas- ters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and Mammon. One cannot obey God when one is enslaved to rich- es, material possessions. To be wholly yielded to God is to be the master of all material things. 25. Therefore I say unto you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? Christ is here warn- ing us against having an anxious temper of mind. If we spend all our energy and thought in worry- ing about what things eve are go- ing to eat and wear, we have little time for the inner, precious things that make life really worth living. 26. Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much more value than they? 27. And which of you by being anxi- ous can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? Worrying about death does not prolong life. 28. And why are ye anxious con- cerning raiment? . Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they. toil not, neither de they spin; 29. yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. The plant referred to here may be the anemone, which grows in the 'spring of the year on the hillsides of Galilee. 30. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe • you, 0 ye of little faith? If God has spent all this labor on what passes so soon, 'how easy it should be to trust him to care for us with that same wis- dom and omnipotence, when we are his children forever. Live For Today 31. Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What ehall we drink? or, Where- withal shall we be clothed? 32. For after • all these things the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have no need of all these things. ' By Gen.. tiles here, is meant Pagan peoples of the world, then and no*. 83. But seek ye first his kingdom, and hie righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. The first lesson taught by these. passages is that anxious thought is contrary to all the lessons of na-' tore, which show it to be unneces- sary; secondly, it is contrary to call the lessons of revelation or rrli- plan, which show it..to be heathen- MP thirdly we must have rd goal itt irate, a spiritual objective. Huge French Tanks Crush Brick Walls As ` `trough Paper This 'News Of the Day series shows the power of th e new French 70-90 ton tanks. Their battering power Is terrific and„far exceeds anything known in the last war. It plows through brick walls as if they were made of paper mache, and snaps trees as if they were twigs. It is believed that they will be an important factor on the west front when the fighting gets heavy. At the . TOP LEFT, the war monster is being tipped nose up as it encounters a wall, and then, BOTTOM LEFT, we see it from the rear as it crashes through. On the TOP RIGHT is a head-on view of the tank as it goes through a breach in the wall, and gives an idea of how it must appear to an unfortunate soldier in its path. On the BOTTOM RIGHT is a side view of the tank in action crashing through the wall. Various Types Of Handshakes Hand Analyst Claims He Can Judge Character By That Method A. hand analyst of New York, Dr. Josef Ranald by name, says he can judge characted by a handshake. In his list of hand g*ips is what he calls the leathery or Tarzan type. "This fellow,” he says, "will graft your hand in a first-rate imitation of a vise, and will smile perfectly satisfied when he sees you writh- ing inwardly at the strength of his grip." "This sledgehammer or bone- crusher type," the good doctor con- tinues, "represents the domineer- ing, stubborn and intolerant fel- low who will stop at ,nothing to achieve his end." The six remaining elassificatio:.s according to the doctor are: The clammy type, traced to bad glandu- lar conditions; the nervous, or un- certain (he recommends more ex- ercise) ; the inept, or negative -cut - ward expression of a man who can- not make up his mind about any- thing; "the grabby or dead fish" which is a red signal' that the hand- shaker is not to be trusted; the passionate grip with its alternate pressure and release with which a man tries to carry on a flirta- tion; and the timid. Whey that watery liquid re- maining after cheese has been ex- tracted from milk by the cheese industries of the United States amounts to 5,500,000,000 pounds a year—enough to float a good- sized navy.

Would Beautify Rural Schools Ontario Agriculture Minister Thinks Interest of Young People In Such Projects— Would Spread to Their Own Homes Interest school children in im- provement of houses and lands and the interest will spread to the home Hon. P. M. Dewan, Ontario Minis- ter of Agriculture, told the Oxford County Home Improvement Asso- elation in a recent address at Woodstock, The meeting was held to honor Oxford county entrants who won awards in an Ontario home im.- grovement contest based on perm- anent improvements made around rural properties during the year. The contest was won by Lorne Richardson of Walnut Grove Jer- sey Farm, Orford Centre. E. k. Monteith, of Embro placed third, and Alex. Muir, of Woodstock, was eighteenth. "I feel that much improvement can be done by promoting improve- ment about our rural schools," Mr. Dewan said. "I believe the.t the school is one place to make a be- ginning that will prove fruitful. RADIO NOTES ANDN E @N 8 By MADGE ARCHER NEIGHBORLY CO-OPERATION 'An example in international re- lations — that might well be a les- son to some nations in Europe — was a discovery I made the other day while doing some investigating on programs heard across the bor- der. For in Buffalo I came to a pro- gram that might well be called "Hands Across the Border" rather than its present title "Internation- al House Party." I found that while the hour variety show employed the best of American talent, the Canadian touch is supplied with scripts that are written in Mont- real, one of the highlights of the program "The Story Within the Song" is the product of a Toron- tonian, the dramatic feature — a five minute sketch — is the regu- lar contribution of Walter O'Ilearn a Montreal newspaperman, and John Sturgiss, the baritone solo- ist, is also Toronto's gift. The pro- gram can be heard from Buffalo over WGR any Tuesday evening from. 9:00 to 10:00 o'clock. REMEMBRANCE DAY The Annual Remembrance Day ceremony on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, which will take place in the presence of the Governor Gen- eral, Lord Tweedsmuir, Prime Min- ister MacKenzie King, Canadian dignitaries of -Church and State, the Diplomatic Corps and consular representatives from many coun- tries, will be broadcast to the peo- ple of the Dominion by the Canad- ian Broadcasting Corporation- through orporationthrough their coast to coast net, work of stations, on Saturday, Nov- ember 11, from 10:45 to 11:30 a.m. A choir conducted by Cyril Rick - wood will open the program with "0 Canada", Brigadier W. W. Fos- ter, and Maurice Olivier will read short messages of remembrance, after which the guns will signal a two minutes' silence. The Last Post and the Reveille sounded by trumpeters fax above in the gallery of the Peace Tower will end the ceremony. In the evening a special Remembrance program presented in co-operation with the Canadian Legion of the British Empire Ser- vice League from Convocation Hall in Toronto will be heard from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m.'During this program a special message from Lord Tweeds- muir speaking from Ottawa, will be conveyed to the Canadian peo- ple..
