PRAYER Early in the morning, 0 Lord, will we direct our prayer unto Thee, and will look up. Blessed art Thou who didst create the heavens and the heavenly powers. We confess our sins and the sins of our forefathers; for we have all transgressed and neg- lected Thee. But set not, 0 God, our misdeeds before us, nor our past life in the light of Thy countenance. Truly our hope is in Thee; in Thee have we trusted, let us never be con- founded. We pray for the whole race of mankind, for the supply of what is wanting unto each, and for succour and comfort unto all, And for Thy whole creation do we pray, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

S. S. LESSON FOR APRIL 20, 1930 Lesson Topic—Easter Lesson. Lesson Passage—John 20:1-16. Golden Text—Matthew 28:6. In these verses we have an account of the resurrection by an eye witness. It is perhaps more an account of how he was convinced that a resurrection had actually taken place. When Mary brought the startling word that the tomb was empty Peter and John instantly set off at top speed for the garden. The older man was left behind by John—that other dis- ciple—but natural reserve kept him from entering the rocky chamber. He looked in, however, and to his sur- prise saw that the tomb was, as Mary had said, empty. But he saw more than had caught her eye. She at once concluded that some one had re- moved the body possibly for burial elsewhere. John's eye saw that the linen cloths in which Jesus' body had been wrapped, had been removed and left behind. Peter, coming up by this time, went in and' a further observa- tion was made which showed there had been no hasty removing of the body. The grave clothes were in one place and the "napkin that was about His head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself." John then followed in and his second sight of the empty tomb convinced him that Jesus had Himself risen and disencumbered Himself from these wrappings and departed. It was enough for John— "He 'saw and believed." Filled with astonishment and with strange thou astonishment a n d w i t h ,•strange thoughts chasing one another through their minds, the disciples went away again unto their own hones. Mary, exhausted with her rapid carrying of the news to Peter and John, was not able to keep pace with them on the return trip, so that when she arrived they were gone. We see her standing there desolate and pour- ing out her distress in tears. That grave being empty, the whole earth is empty to her. Thinking she' might have been deceived in the dusk of the early morn, she stooped down and looked in again. So absorbed was she in her grief that the vision she saw of angels did not astonish her nor was she startled when they said to her: "Woman, why weepest thou." She had but one consuming thought and she uttered it:—"Because they have taken away my Lard, and I know not where they have laid Him." -She didn't say who her Lord was. to y say who? Can any need one be thinking of any other but of Him who filled all her thought? As Mary answered the angels she heard a step behind or saw the tomb darkened by a shadow, and on turn- ing discerned dimly, through her tears, a figure which naturally enough she supposed to be the gardener, being the likeliest person to be going about the garden at that early hour. As she turned, one word wiped the tears from her eyes and sent joy coursing through her heart. Once before, that voice had banished from her nature the foul spirits that had possessed her; and she had "awaked from hell beneath the smile of Christ," and clow again the same voice 'brought her out of darkness in- to light. From being the most dis- consolate, Mary became at a word the happiest creature in the world. Mary, with one quick exclamation of recognition and joy, sprang to - ward's him. "Rabboni" which is to say "Master." But as Mary made as though she would embrace the Lord, she is met by these words: "Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my father." Mary seemed to have thought that already the "little while" of his absence was past and that now he was to be always with them on earth, helping them in the same fam- iliar ways and training them by his visible presence and spoken words. But he showed her differently and gave her work to do. for him in the wonderful message he sent to his dis- ciples. "Go to my brothers, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father and your Father and to my God and your God." This is the message of the risen Lord to men. He has be- come the link between us and all that is highest and best. --'Condensed from The Expositor's Bible. ALONG distance call — that carries your voice, your personality — is the finest re- membrance you can send on a birthday, anniversary or any other occasion. It carries a touch of intimacy no other re- membrance can bring. And what other gift could you send that would cost you so little and give so much pleas- ure. Just look over the long distance rates in the front of your telephone book and note the unusually low cost since the recent rate reductions. Call by number and tell the long distance operator "anyone there will do." This gives you the low station -to -station rate. If you call after 7 in the even- ing the cost will be about 25% lower than the day rate; and froth 8.30 p.m. to 4.30 a.m. the rate is about half the day rate. (These reductions apply on "anyone" calls only.) Long distance today is quicker, cheaper and more dependable than ever before.

The new law would also insist that the small N. l's be put in ane package and the larger ones in another. Small Potatoes- Count. With the recognition of the small potato in official seed grades, and its increasing popularity in the export trade for seed purposes, the old fam- iliar epithet "small potatoes takes cn a new meaning. "Certified Seed Potatoes Grade Small 'Size" is the new grade 'provided under the regu- lation of the Dominion Department of Agriculture, and the potato grow- er will now be able to sell a much larger portion of his crop at a prem- ium as certified seed, insofar as the small size, 1' to 3 ounce tubers con- form to the requirements for certi- fied seed stock. The new regulation has another purpose as well, it as- sists in the effective control and er- adication of potato disease. Further, only certified seed potatoes may now be sold as seed stock. MRS. EDITH BROWN "I had 'awful pains in my right side and in my right shoulder joint, that extended all the way down to my wrist and the joints of my hand. Nothing I took helped me until I took Sargon. It completely overcame the pain. I notice too that I am stronger in every way with worlds of new en- ergy and vitality. Sargon Pills regu- lated me 'perfectly." — Mrs. Edith Brawn,426 Clen denan Ave., Toronto. Sargon may be obtained in Seaforth from Charles Aberhart. • To Wish Ban Voyage so I asked, pointing to the picture: 'Do you know what it is?' `Yes,' came the quick response, `that's our Sav- iour,' with a mingled look of pity and surprise that I should not know. With an evident desire to enlighten me further he continued, after a pause, 'Them's the soldiers, the Roman sol- diers,' and, with a long -drawn sigh: 'That woman crying there is His mother.' He waited, apparently for me to question him further, thrust his hands into his pockets, and, with a reverent and subdued voice, added: ."They killed Him, Mister. Yes, sir, they killed Him!" I looked at the lit- tle ragged fellow and asked. 'Where did you learn this?' He replied, 'At the Mission Sunday school.' Full of thought regarding the benefits of Mission Sunday schools, I turned away and resumed my walk, leaving the little lad look at the picture. I had not walked a block when I heard his childish treble calling: "Mister! Say, Mister!" I turned. He was running toward me, but paused; then up went his little hand, and with triumphant sound in voice, he said: "I wanted to tell you He rose again! Yes, Mister, He rose again." ---Select- ed.

Mormon was able to take in his re- ligiou was that it was new, It was the newest of all religions, and there- fore the +best. It retained all' the good features of the older faiths and incor- porated some new ideas. Joseph Smith was regarded as a kind of Moses, and a superior kind. Like noses be had been directed to a certain place where he had dug up certain golden plates upon which God had written out cer- tain specifications and command- ments for the new religion. He had conversed with an angel. He 'had not actual witnesses to the interview, but there were several supporters who were ready to testify that they had handled the golden plates. They could not understand what was writ- ten thereon, nor could Smith himself, until he had been provided with a pair of magic spectacles. Then his eyes were opened and he had been en- abled to translate the strange writ- ings into a kind of English hardly less strange. This job done, the angel had taken away the original plates. The translation comprised the Book of Mormon. It was amplified from time to time in consequence of vis- ions and divine revelations to Smith and Young. Whether the process con- tinues we are unable to say. One of the contentions of Smith was that the North American Indians were the descendants of a lost Jewish tribe, and the immediate duty of the Mormons was to reconvert the Indians to the faith which had been lost and was now miraculously recovered. The early friendliness of the Mormons with the Indians excited the hostility and suspicion of their white neigh- bors, and was one of the reasons back of the successive moves westward. The necessity of converting the In- dians and the advisability of escaping lynching at the hands of the whites were sufficient motives for western treks. There were massacres of Mor- mons in Missouri and Illinois. In the latter Joseph Smith was killed and Brigham Young was nominated as his successor. It was under Young that the famous march to Utah began. This has long been recognized as a heroic pilgrimage, and undoubtedly the Mormons suffered terribly from hunger and cold and disease, to say nothing of occasional massacre's by hostile Indians. In the end the site of Salt Lake City was reached and here in .a few years the ant -like indus- try of the Mormons under the iron discipline of Young had. caused the wilderness to blossom as the rose. • Clashes with the United States Government, whose authority was then extending into the new territory, were frequent. There was a particu- larly horrible massacre of an immi- grant caravan on its way to Cali- fornia by a party of bloodthirsty Mormons. Young was hardly a party to these wholesale murders but for years after remained on the friend- liest terms with its organizer, John D. Lee, and did • all he could to keep Lee from the punishment which he had earned and which in the end he received. The gold rush to California helped the Mormons for there was an immediate demand for whatever they could raise and sell from fresh vege- tables to pack horses and other sup- plies. Young set himself up as gov- ernor of the state and the threat of American troops was necessary to force his retirement. Even then he remained until the day of his death the real government of the state. The Mormons to -day own and operate Utah, but they bear little resemblance to their grandfathers and great-grand- fathers who established it. The chief flower of their peculiar culture is MORMON CHURCH FOUNDED ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO It is just a hundred years ago since Joseph 'Smith and a few friend's meet- ing in a farm house in New York State determined to establish the Mormon Church. 'It was one of the most curious of the numerous freakish religions of which the United States has been so prolific, and is founded on premises which nobody who is not a Mormon accept. conspicu- ous most cons icu- ous feature for most •of its history was the doctrine that plural marriages were proper, and it clung to this un- til near the end of the Nineteenth Century, only surrendering when it had become apparent that Utah would never be admitted to statehood in the American union unless the state dis- claimed 'polygamy. It is probably true that at no time was the practise as general as the critics of Mormon- ism believed. The picture of some bearded, weather-beaten elder having half a dozen charming young girls as his wives very rarely corresponded with reality. Authentic photographs of the 'Mormons at the time when polygamy was openlypractised rob- bed this feature of their religion of all romance. There were no rvoluptu- •ous Mormon harems. Most of the men had to work too bard to be able to support more than one wife, and the women had also to work like hors- es, so that when they returned, be- grimed and blistered, from the fields amorous dalliance was the though furthest from their minds. But it seems that if the doctrine of polygamy had not been a feature of the new religion at the time it was put upon the market by Joseph Smith and Brigham Young it never would have attracted the attention that it won and its adherents would have re- mained an obscure, poverty-stricken sect. Undoubtedly the lure ofNpoly- gamy proved' glamorous to thousands of women in the British Isles, Ger- many and the 'Scandinavian countries who had about given up hope of be- coming possessed of suitable hus- bands. 'When they migrated to Utah it seemed certain that marriage of some sort would be their reward. Men, too, were no doubt charmed by the same carnal visions that a con- templation of ' the sultan's seraglio would conjure up. There was also the promise of free land. These were the chief talking points of the mis- Time after time cases are brought to the notice of the public where suf- ferers from nervous troubles have been relieved by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills—where victims of St. Vitus Dance have been made well through the use of these pills after other med- icines have, failed to be of benefit. The reason for this is that Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills act directly upon the blood—they make new, rich red blood and. in thus banishing all impurities from the blood strengthen the nerves and make St. Vitus Dance impossible. 'Mrs. P. Donnelly, Montreal, Que., is one more grateful mother who wish- es to add her testimony to those al- ready published. She says;—"My lit- tle girl, aged eleven, was a great suf- ferer from St. Vitus Dance. Several doctors prescribed for her without benefit. She was in the hospital for two weeks—still no benefit. I then saw an advertisement recommending Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for 'St. Vitus Dance, so decided to try them. My little girl had only taken a couple of boxes when I noticed some improve- ment so I continued with the treat-. ment till now she is completely free from the trouble and can enjoy her- self as other children do. I can high- ly recommend Dr. William Pink Pills to anyone suffering from St. Vitus Dance or any other form of nervous trouble, for what these Pills have done for my daughter I am sure they will do for others." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are soli by all dealers in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. FARM NEWS AND VIEWS Now Ready For Research. "'I believe we are just on the thres- hold of a considerable development in the field of agricultural economics research," observes Dr. J. F. Booth, Commissioner, Agricultural Econ- omics Branch, Dominion Department of Agriculture. "I think as time goes on both farmers and the general public will appreciate •and malue all economic research in the solution of agricultural problems." Coming, as this does, from Dr. Booth, it has par- ticular significance. On two occas- ions recently, the annual meeting of the Canadian Horticultural Council and the All -Canada Agricultural Con- ference, keen demands for economic surveys and coat production studies were evinced. Not only does Such work reveal relative profitableness of farming; it also provides a medium for finding and correcting the difficul- ties in existing. methods. „Just Like Newll Curtains ... for almost nothing ONE or two dips in water colored. by New INSTANT RIT and your curtains come out with fashion's latest shade—gold, ecru or some other color you favor.
