PRAYER 0 God who has given us light and who grievest `because we have so often loved the darkness better, Thou hast called us to follow that which is good, and to flee from that which is evil; and Thou knowest how, hour after hour, day after day, we have yielded to the temptations in our path, have done what Thou hadst for- bidden, and have left undone the work Thou ,hast given us to do. 0 Thou, whose voice of .warning and of love we have so little heeded, calls us yet again we beseech Thee; call us that we many answer, and do Thy bidding; that we may go astray from Thee no niore; but that, being com- forted `by Thy love and upheld by Thy strength, we may fulfil our days on earth forgiven and at peace with Thee. Through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen. S. S. LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 15 Lesson Topic—Teaching The Law of God. Lesson Passage—Nehemiah 8 ; 1-- 3, 5, 6, 8-12. Golden Text—Psalm 119:130. The last part of the preceding chapter gives the time of the event recorded in to -day's lesson. It was the seventh month and the first day of that month was the day of the "Feast of Trumpets," appointed as one of a sabbatical rest, and on which there was to be a "Holy Con- vocation." The gathering together of the most people recorded in verse 1, was most probably to keep this feast. Ezra is here spoken of for the first time in the book of Nehemiah. It seems impossible that he should have been in Jerusalem during the events narrated in Nehemiah 2-6, and have played no part in them. Probably he had returned to the court of Artax erxes soon after effecting the setting up of the altar, the building of the temple and the executing of certain moral reforms in the life of the peo- ple, and did not revisit Jerusalem till about the time when the walls were completed. If he had thus just re- turned after an absence of such a period, more than ten years, it would be natural for the people to request him to resume the work of. exposi- tion of the Law to which he had ac- customed them on his former visit. Ezra on this occasion had beside him thirteen priests, probably the chief priests of the course which was at the time performing the temple service. He stood in the presence of his great assembly and opening the book he and the priests continued to read and explain the Law and caused them to understand the meaning of what was read. They saw, in the light of what they heard, their sins of com- mission and omission towards God and they wept. Then it was that Ne- hemiah and Ezra commanded them to cease weeping and to rejoice, not that they forbade them to be sorry for their sins but rather to cease to mar a festive occasion. Ezra then commanded them to show their joy in a practical way. They were allowed to feast, to eat and drink better than on other days and also to extend their feast to others in need, thus out of their ab- undance supplying the others' want. --(Condensed from the Pulpit Com• mentary). He showed them the reason for this saying—for this day is holy un- to our Lord; for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Bishop MacLagan says of this text: No heart was really ever mov- ed with godly sorrow that did not, in God's good time, come to holy joy and no heart ever came to holy joy that had not been first moved to godly sorrow. The joy of the Lord is our strength when following after holiness. It is the want of this that makes many of us so slow in our progress in spiritual things. WORLD MISSIONS A little alert Chinese lady arose in the meeting after F. H. Hawkins had spoken of the state of missions in the far East. It was Miss Hung Ying Liao, of Tingchow. She stood there, a portent the audience had just heard about the alarms and confus- ions of war time in China and the arrival of the Southern Natihnillist armies in Central China. Then this slight girlish figure from that same area arose to tell then' that as a Christian Chinese student she with others had gone into the disturbed towns before the Southern Armies arrived. Those girl students went t3 arouse an interest in China's affairs among the country women, and to prepare them for the inevitable ar- rival of the Southerners. If anything could show the young people assem- bled at the Swanwick Conference of the London Missionary Society last week that they were living in a new world, the spectacle of Miss Hung Ying Liao standing there telling them things ought to have done it Miss Liao is as eager to take her part in life's affairs here as at home. She spoke to the smaller groups dis- cussing her country, wind joined the Girl's Auxiliary to their joy. Her presence was particularly helpful be- cause the Conference was largely en- gaged in discussing the future rela- tions between the 'Church of, China, and the missionaries.'

The old-timer drew up the list and was carefullynacrutinizing it for cor- rections. Suddenly he took a pencil and ran down the list, jotting down check marks after some of the names. "Here's a remarkable thing," said the old-timer. "Wihat is that, sir?" "Nine of the ten are dead." "Well wr could hardly.. " "But it makes no difference," in- terrupted the old-timer. "No• list of representative men from this .prov• ince could -be complete without them." The' old-timer took his cheque book and wrote out a cheque for a thou- sand dollars. • "See," he said, "that those nine names are on the list." So it happened that the Alberta plaque of contributors bears the names of nine men long since pioneer- ing a new world. Among them are those of Father Lacombe and Dr. Mc - Dougall. The old-timer was Pat Burns. A WARNING TO MOTHERS Watch the Health of Your Little Ones at All Times. No mother can expect that her child will escape all the ills to which babyhood and childhood are subject, but she can do much to lessen the severity of these troubles. The moth- er should be constantly on her guard to prevent childhood ailments, or if they come on suddenly as they usual- ly do, to have the means at hand to relieve them.: Thousands of mothers have found' c by's• Own Tablets the ideal remect ' or little ones—thou- sands of ,,..in ' yens always keep the Tablets its' the house as a safeguard a .'inti,- the sudden illness of their little ones. Baby's Own Tablets are a mild but thorough laxative. They regulate the bowels; sweeten the, stomach and thus banish constipation and indiges- tion; break up colds and simple fev- er and make the cutting of teeth easy. The Tablets are absolutely guaranteed free from injurious drugs and may be given to the youngest child with perfect safety. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25c a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. MORE PLANES IIN USE TO -DAY THAN AUTOMOBILES IN 1900 There are more aeroplanes in civ- ilian operation in the United States to -day than there were automobiles in use in 1900, and the number of 'planes, aside from those in military operations, has • increased approxi- mately 200 per `cent. since America really began to become air -minded early in 1926,• according to the air travel division of the American Auto- mobile Association. The air travel division of the A. A. A. pointed out that there were - only 8,000 automobiles in use in 1900 and all of these were passenger cars, while available figures show that there are 8,064 'planes now in opera- tion. Moreover, they are used for pas senger carrying, . transporting the mails, forestry patrol duty and also for carrying freight. "This shows in a graphic way the progress being made in the field of air trapsportartion," says the state- ment, "and A. A. A. motor clubs throughout the country are meeting the condition presented in this com- paratively new field by providing members with adequate air travel ser- vices. "Although the aeroplane has been steadily gaining a foothold in the field of. travel for the. past twenty years, it remained for the momentous flight li of Colonel Lindbergh, early in 1926, to awaken America to the growing importance of aviation. This is shown in no more convincing way than by the fact that there were about 2,700 'planes in civilian operation at that time. Therefore a. 200 per cent. in- crease in number within the brief space of two yeah clearly shows that the eyes of the American people are Lameu mmr i A.bsorbine otopo haieaeae caused by o bolo dio avis, Had bone,bpliint, curb, side bone, e nner troubles- Slid aeio spur home goknrQ oound eitain.

They, as much as any other agencies in the country, have fore- seen the future of air transportation and are aiding its progress." RYERSON'S TEXT BOOK ON AGRICULTURE, 1870 In the home of a Canadian farmer, where it is still referred to for guid- ance, a little book dated 1870 was stumbled upon, entitled "First Les - sons on Agriculture." In this prov- ince that work was the subject of no small controversy in its day. Its author was Rev. Egerton Ryerson, LL.D., Chief Superintendent of Edu- cation for Ontario. He intended it for Canadian farmers and their fam- ilies, but the controversial point con- cerning it was its proposed use in the schools of Ontario. "Agriculture, said its critics, cannot be tanght in schools." On the opposite side it was strongly contended that the subject could be made extremely interesting to pupils if it were handled by teach- ers with heads and hearts for such schoolwork. The arguments between assailants and defenders of the book have long been settled by educational practice and especially by the course the present Ontario government has provided to give every boy and girl looking forward to life on the farms an introduction to the study of the science of agriculture. In his "dedicatory preface" Dr. Ryerson says that "after noting the nature and importance of the farm- er's profession and the education de- manded by his employment and posi- tion I have sought to prepare an ele- mentary Grammar of Agriculture for. his use." He adds: "If this little book shouldamong other things tend to show how much science, art, re- finements, and pleasure as well as pro- fit are involved in the true pursuit of. agriculture, and thus elevate it in the esteem and olccupation of the youth of Canada, I shall beamply compensated for the labor of prepar- ing it." The author announced • that he would not participate in any pro- fits arising from the sale of the book, his aim being solely to contribute to a most important branch of Canad- ian education and industry. The founder of Ontario's educational sys- tem had sound ideas as to the value of instruction in aur fundamental in- dustries. He was brought up on the farm. Of this he gives evidences in his book. One of these is the fol- lowing passage: "The writer of these pages, between 15 and 20 years of age, learned the greater part of the languages, literature and science that hethenacquired during the evening and between the hours- of three and six in the mornings. Any farmer's son wmhqq will carry a copy of this lit- tle book in his pocket and learn a' section or two of it at each interval when he is resting his team, etc , will be gratified and surprised to find at the end of a- week or month. how much he has learned that will be use- ful for life, and how many idle thoughts and idle words he has avoid- ed. When I was a lad and before I was 16 years of age I learned a much larger and more difficult one than this in a single month and that, too, while working daily very hard on the farm." That passage also throws light on the conditions under which lads of little means but bent on getting an education had to carry on their stu- dies. It ought to be healthful read- ing to those of our young people of to -day, who, not having all the aids to education that so many of their peers have, stuck to, their private studies in hours when others are in bed and even when working between the plough handles. Men of the Ryerson type not only increase their knowledge but they did that more useful thing, they built up character and fitted themselves for positions requiring courage, tenacity, honesty, etc. Another quotation has reference to personal habits. The writer ex- plains that among agricultural pro- ducts, he had not mentioned tobacco, "'because," he said, "I have not only never used it in any form, but hope that no reader of this little book will even use or cultivate it. I have lived nearly 70 years and after revolving my recollections ons the subject again and again, I am unable to call to mind a single instance, within my o*ii observations, of a youth who ha- bitually either chewed or smoked to• bunco, having, in subsequent years, attained to any responsible, much less distinguished position in any profes- sion or pursuit of life. I have known many estimable and able men use to baceo, though seldom, if ever, advance in intellectual or moral power, or pro- fessional or social position, after re- sorting to the habitual use of this ,pernicious weed the general precur- sor, if not the parents, of intemper- ance arid many other vises.

SIM & Son Q o reader of the works of William Cob- bett, who was himself a yeoman of the soil, a strong and positive urger of youth making_ the best use of its precious time and of the practice of good habits, Dr. Ryerson was a . true friend of the youth of the Ontario of his day and did his pant in making of this great province, whose agri- cultural industry he endeavored in the light of his time to put on a book. ii2dOirtlio Ont. basis of education. Agricultural edu- cation today has a place in our school programmes.
