S. S. LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 19
Lesson Topic—Paul in Athens.
Lesson Passage—Acts 17:22-34,
Golden Text—Acts 17:28.
'In our last lesson we left Luke be -
bind in Phillippi to care for the in-
fant church while Paul, Silvanus and
'Tinuotheu.s started on their journey to
:Athens. As they went they preach-
ed, were received at times, and at
ether times rejected and forced to
stove on—pursued from city to city
by infuriated enemies of the word.
.At Beroea a church was established
over which Silas and Timothy were
appointed to water the good seed
which had begun to spring, while
Paul proceeded in the „company of
some of the Beroean brethren. They
left the land route and sailed to -
'wards Athens.
"Athens!—with what a thrill of de-
light has many a modern traveller
been filled as for the first time, he
stepped upon that classic land! With
what an eager gaze has he scanned
the scenery and outline of that city
—on the Argean shore, built nobly,
-pure the air, and light the. soil. Ath-
ens, the eye of Greece, mother of
arts, and eloquence."
As he parted from his companions
be urged them to send Saul and Tim-
othy to him. Why? We gather
from the writings of St. Luke that
the one trial which Paul found it'
the most difficult to bear was solitude.
'While he waited their coming he re-
lieved his melancholy loneliness by
'wandering hither and thither, with a
curiosity largely mingled with grief
and indignation. "Athens was the
city of statues; statues of),yood, and
earthenware, and stone, and marble,.
and bronze, and ivory, and gold, in
every attitude, in all possible _com-
binations; statues starting fforn e,v-
fry cave, and standing like lines of
sentinels in every street." Paul saw
nothing in them but idols. "His spir-
it," says his biographer, "wtis em-
bittered withinhim when he saw the
city filled with idols."
But, among the many altars vis-
ible in every street, there was one
iby which he lingered with special at-
tention, and on which he read with
the deepest emotionthe ancient in-
scription—"To the unknown God."
lie saw in it, or Iiked to read intt)
it, the.. acknowledgment of some di-
vinity after whom they yearned, but
to the knowledge of whom they had
.been unable to attain; and this was
He whom "he felt it to be his own
mission to make known. It Was with
this thought that he consoled his rest-
less loneliness in that uncongenial
city; it was this thought which re-
kindled his natural ardor es he wan-
dered through its idol crowded
streets. It was said that in the city
of Athens the images of the gods
were ntore in number than the peo-
ple. In all ages Athens had been a
City of idler's and their conspicuous
characteristic was, as St. Luke says,
the telling or hearing of Whatever
was new. Therefore, it was that
Paul's presence among them and his
message to' them soon attracted at-
tention. His teachings were of a dif-
ferent order and they. even the wis-
est aineng them, listened for. a time
regarding him as "apparently a pro-
elaitner of strange deities." The crowd
increased So that he was taken to
Mar's Hill where, ranged around it,
were etone seats for the accernmoda-
thin of large gatherings. Standing
in their midst, Paul proclaimed with
all seriousness and undaunted cour-
age, man's relationship to God. He
told them. it was as one of their own
poets had said: "For we ale e'en
his offspring." Fallowing along that
thought he said that since, then, we
are the offspring of God, we ought
not to think the Divine is like gold
or silver or brass, the graving art of
man's genius. HIe then proceeded to
give his great message of repentance
and salvation through the One, God
had sent to seek and to save the lost.
But when he came tospeak. of his
crucifixon and resurrection from the
dead some laughed him to scorn; but
others said; "We will hear you again
about this." Paul did not make many
converts in Athens but amongst those
who did believe was a man of some
standing in the court, named Diony-
sines-and a woman named Daimaris.
Dr. Crosby Meets With a Surprise:
By Rev. F. G. Weir, of the Saugeen
Indian Mission.
Dr. Crosby was born in England.
In the village where he lived there
was a young man, named George
Piercy. Piercy greatly desired to go
to China as a massionary. There
were many difficulties in his way, but
"NOT CONSTIPATED
FOR SEVEN WEEKS"
Writes Mrs. Johnson After
Using Kellogg's ALL -BRAN
Sufferers from constipation will
be interested in this unsolicited
letter:
"Your ALL-BitAx surely relieves
constipation. I am so glad over the
good it has done me that I feel I
must write and tell you of it.
"For lunch I take a banana, a
large one. Six tablespc ons of ALL -
BRAN in. a sauce dish, and dip
banana at each bite until all is
consumed. I haven't been consti-
pated now for seven weeks."—Mrs.
Louise Johnson. (Address furnished
upon request.)
Constipation often causes head-
aches, loss of appetite and energy,
sleeplessness. This condition is
usually due to lack of "bulk" to ex-
ercise the intestines, and vitamin B
to further promote regular habits.
Kellogg's ALLeBRAN has both, as
well as iron for the blood.
The "bulk" in ALL -BEAN is much
like that in leafy vegetables. With-
in the body, it forms a sat mass.
Gently, it clears out the wastes.
TryALL-BRAN in place of patent
medicines — often harmful. Two
tablespoonfuls daily will overcome
Most types of constipation. Chronic
oases, with each meal. If not re-
lieved this way, see your doctor.

he 'overcame them all and went.
Piercy's zeal and resolution, and his
going upon such an adventure made
a strong impression upon Crosby's
mind.
In course of time Crosby felt that
he was calle.d- to go as missionary to
the British Columbia Coast. Follow-
ing the example of his friend Piercy,
he obeyed the call and went. In 1872
in the course of his missionary jour-
neys, he visited the Bunch Grass
Country. One incident of this visit
gave him much surprise and plea-
sure. The incident is best presented
in his own words. He says:
"'I had hoped to spend the next
night at the home of my friend S
but next day I met him and others
going to the Ashcroft races. He ex-
pressed his regret at not being home
to -receive me, but begged me to stay
at his place that night.
"I preached at Cache Creek, and
arrived at my friend's ranch about
evening. His Chinese servant niet us
and I said to him:
"'Jahn, I met your master to -day,
and he told me to stay here all night.
You are, to feed -my horses, and I am
to stay here until morning.'
"He seemed doubtful as to my hon-
esty, and in a somewhat peremptory
tone of voice said: tri -Au savee Mr.
S—? You savee Mr. S. ?'
'Yee,'t I said, 'and he told me to
stop here -.to -night.'
"'You savee Mr. You
savee t Mr. he repeated, each
time growing louder and more em-
phatic.
"•Yes,' I replied, in a strong and
decided voice, `I know 'Mr. S—; your.
master, "and I want you to get my
supper, for I am going to remain
here .to -night."
"Finally convinced, he took the
horses and put theins in the stable,
and returning to the house, very soon
had a .fine supper for us, of boiled
chicken and other delicacies.
•After supper I said to him, "John,
do you know Jest's? Have you
heard about Jesus?"
4tMe savee little bit," he said.
"Then let us pray to God, who has
given us all this good food and all
good things," said I.
We knelt down; I prayer and my
Indian companion prayed in his own
language; then to our surprise, 'John,
the Chinaman at once began to pray
in Chinese, and, as I should think
from the earnestness of his utteranc-
es, ninde a marvellous prayer. Un-
der the blessed influence of grace we
had a shouting, happy time.
As soon as we got through, John,
looked at rne very earnestly, and in
an excited tone of voice, said: "Me
save Mr. Pierce, Canton, China, ailee
same you. Canton, China, one man,
ellee same you. Mr. Piercy, Canton.
China, allee same you." And as he
spoke he grew -more excited with his
effort to convey to me the fact that
in Canton, his native city in China,
he had been led to know Jesus
through the instrulmentality of 'Mr.
Piercy, a missionary like myself.
Suddenlyit dawned upon me that
the .Mr. Piercy referred to was the
same. George Piercy who, many years
before, had left my native- village in
England and had gosieslis a mission-
ary to China . Here in the
,interior of British 'C'elutribia, thou-
sands of miles from the scene,of his
labors, I m'et the gracious results of
the work of this saintly servant of
Christ."--Frorn The United Church

THE OLD CLAY 110LTSP.
When I am through with this old clay
house of trainee
When no 'mere guide lights through
the windows shine,
Just box it up and lay it away
With the other clay houses of yester-
day,
And with it, -my friends, do try if
you can,
To bury the wrongs since first 4 be-
gan
To live in this hoese, bury deep, and

I want to be square and out of your
debt,
When I meet the Grand Architect
supreme
Face to face, I want to be clean;
Of course I know its too late to tnend
A bad builded house when we, come
to the end,
But, to you who are building, just
look over mine,
And make your alterations -while
there is time;
Just study this house—no tears
should be shed,
It's like any clay house when the
tenant has fled.
I•have lived in the house many days
alone,
Just waiting, and oh how I longed to
go home!
Don't misunderstand me—this old
world divine, •
With love, 'birds and flowers and
glorious sunshine,
Is a wonderful place, and a wonder-
ful plan,
And a wonderful, wonderful gift to
man.
Yet somehow when we feel when this
cycle's complete,
There are dear ones across we are
anxious to Meet,
So we open the books and check up
the past,
And no more forced balances, this is
the last,
Each item is checked, each page must
be clean,
It's the passport we carry to our
Ibuilder supreme.
So when I am through with this old
house of clay,
Just box it up, tight, and lay it away,
For the builder has promised when
this house is spent, t
To have one all finished, with timber

'Twee told you long since, by the

Honey in Candy,
Cooking or Preserving
;Honey has long 'been recognized
not only as the most delectable of
sweets, but also as a valuable heat
and energy .producing food, yet, there
are many people still unaware of- the
.several ways in which it m'ay be us-
ed. Honey' is a highly eoncentrated
sugar solution. and as such may be
used in practicaily .every way that
ordinary sugar is used. Owing to
the great eariety• of flowers from
which it is .,gathered, honey varies
greatly in colour and flavour. As a
rule, the lighter the colour the more
de/irate its flavour, therefore, in se-
lecting fee-TO/Sur one may be large-
ly guided by colour. All Canadian
honeys 'granulate sooner or later.
This. however, does not affect its
quality, and granulated' honey can
easily be restored to its liquid form
',I- standing it in hot water until all
'the crystals are dissolved. Theeiva,
ter should be no hotter than the
hand will bear. Honey contains from
18 to 20 per cent. water, therefore
the quantity of liquid called for in
any recipe Insust be reduced one-
fourth when honey is used to replace
the sugar. Honey is less acid than
molasses. therefore, if it is used in
the place of molasses less soda is re-
quired. From, one-quarter to one-
half teaspoon is sufficient for one
cup of honey. Most honeys have a
slightly higher sweetening value.
than sugar, therefore, less of. it
should be used when replacing su-
gar. When used on fruit or cereals,
or in the manufacture of fruit drinks
or ice cream, honey not only pro-
vides the necessary sweetening ele-
ment, but in addition adds a delight-
ful flavour of its own. If used in
the manufacture of bread, cakes,
cookies, muffins, etc., it not onlysiso-.
prOves their flavour but also their
keeping qualities, in that it keeps
them moist and more palatable for
a much longer time than does sugar.
Honey may also, replace sugar in
Part or in whole in the making of
jams or Preserves, but as it has a.
tendency to foam when heated, great-
er care must be exercised to prevent
it from boiling over. Tested recipes
can be obtained by writing to the

Farm, Ottawa.
Turkey's Abraham Lincoln
(Condensed from The American Spec-
tator in the Reader's Digest).
October 29th marks the tenth an-
niversary of the founding of the
Turkish Republic, and it should focus
world-wide attention upon a man in
Ankara who flashes out in present
Old -World politics like a beacon
'breaking through the gloom of a
stormy night.
This amazing human dynamo who
whipped the Allies at the Dardanelles
and ie 1933 with a miotely army of
peasants wearing American uniforms,
tribesmien carrying German rifles and
women dragging British cannon,
drove an invading Greek army into
the Mediterranean Sea—this life-
long warrior, Mustapha Kemal, who
earned the title of Gazi, "The Con-
ouerer," by hia miracles on the bat-
tlef&Ids, has taken one of the Most
hidebound, superstitious, and belliger-
ent peoples on earth, molded them ifi-

their necks for the first consecutive
ten years in Ottoman history.
Ask an American what Kemal has
accomplished and he will invariably
explain. "He took the veils off the
women and substituted the European
hat for the fez."
What Kemal really tore away were
the veils of superstition, ignorance
and religious fanaticism. When he
banned the fez, he was not concern-
ed with whatevas on top of the heads
of the Turks, but. What was inside
of them. He knew that he had to

minds. In, effect, his act was an-

mation. freed .14,000,000 mental
slaves.
That the minds of the Turks were
rips for opening was dramatically
evidenced !by their quick response to
his ban on the ,veil and the fez, an
edict as sensational in Anatolia as
would be an executive order from
Franklin Roosevelt in America that
all women must remove their bras-
sieres and all men wear sandalin-
stead of shoes. For the veil, to Mo-
hammedan daughters, was a far
more intimate garment than is the
brassiere to Christian females, and
the fez was part and parcel of the
age -long Moslem religious ceremony.
Yet in Istanbul twenty-four hours af;
:ter Mustapha Kemal's decree not a
fez' was in sight anywhere: Men ap-
peared on the streets wearing caps,
derbies, .fedoras, and even women's
hats, but not a fez.
The secret of Kemal's miraculous
achievements was' the blind, abiding
faith of the people in the man ',who
had saved Turkey and their readi-
ness to follow him anywhere; and his
even greater, but far from blind read-
iness to lead his people along paths
new and strange to them.
'He abolished "harems" and poly-
gamy by law, thus creating a more
equitable' distribution of the unde-
veloped female resourceof the coun-
try and reducing sexual unemploy-
ment among women to a point of.
practical ton -existence. To sexual
equality for women he added econ-

bands on the street—divorced 4* three

the words, "I divorce thee," 'before

So that the eyes of shis people
might focus back to fundamentals
and the true spirit of IlVlahomet's wise
philosophy, he rid his country of
ancient political intrigue and modern
religious hypocrisy. Not completely
as yet, nor by any single pre -de•
termined action. But these things
are an inevitable and clearly fore-
seen by-product of the accomplish-
ment of the following:
(1) He moved the Capital away
from the professional politicians and
the meddling missionaries of old Con-
stantinople to the fresh air of the,
hills of Ankara.
(2) Through his staunch col-
league, Ismet Pasha, Turkey's deaf
but ,far from dumb Prime Minister,
he achieved an almost incredible dip-
lomatic .victory in the Treaty of
Lausanne with the complete abolish-
ment of the Sultan -sold. "Capitula-
tions," which had surrendered to
foreign commercial interests piece
tically all the spoil of industry and
certainly all the toil of industee of
the Turkish people.

approximate 90 per cent. to an esti-
mated 42 per cent. of the population,
compelling all adults under 45, as
well as children, to go to school. He
Spends 121/2 per -cent. of his annual
budget for education as against two
per cent. in the last years of the Ot-
toman Government. - To simplify ed-
ucation he substituted the modern
Latin alphabet of 26 letters for the,
old Arabic script of nearly 500 letter
combinations, and- then went out i.ne
to the streets and public squares
him-
self with a huge chart to set an in-
spirational example by teaching this
new alphabet to his people himself.
(4) 'He undertook the restoration
of ancieat Turkish culture, opened up
the Art Schools, ordered the Koran
translated into the language of his
country, and punished the rebellious
Muezzins who persisted in singing
their perfunctory prayers in the
Mosquesin a foreign tongue.
(5) IHe octupled the Sultan's an-
nual budget for railroads and ma-
terial improvements; conscripted the
entire male population for the build-
ing of highways; stimulated the de-
velopment of aviation, engaging Am-
erican flyers to teach the Turke; and
pereinally directed and supervised the
'wilding of a beautiful, modern city
of 80.000 people on the swamp lands
and hillsides -of the village of An-
kara.

SAFE WAY TO REDUCE
39 lbs. Off—and She
- Feels Better
A woman who has found a sure,
safe way to lose fat --without freak
dieting or dangerous drugs—writes:
"A year ago I was eaten up with
rheumatism, and was far too fat. I
weighed 154 lbs. and, as my-thei'ght is
only 5 feet 2 inches, you can judge
my appearance. I have taken Krusch-
en regularly, and not dieted, and now
I weigh 11,5 lbs., which is just nice,
and, further, I feel better in health
and my rheumatism has vanished."
—(Mrs.) D. N.
Unlike certain drastic drugs,
Kruschen does not aim to reduce by
rushing food through the body; its
action is not confined to a single pert
of the system. It has a tonic influ-
ence upon every organ of elimination,
every gland, every nerve, every vein.
Gently, but surely, it rids the system
of all fat -forming food refuse, of all
poisons and harmful acids which give
rise to rheumatism, digestive disor-
ders and many other ills.
Corn Vs. Barley in
The Laying Ration
The question of using horne-grown
barley instead of the comparatively
high-priced corn for which the farm-
er and poultryman in Canada must
pay ready, cash is an important, one.
The price of corn in some sections
of the country places it almost be-
yond the reach of the average poul-
tryinan and makes its use in large
quantities almost prohibitive. On
the other hand, the price of barley
is love and it is for this reason that
the question of its substitution for
corn in the poultry ration is of great
economic importance.
In order -to determine 'if barley is
a satisfactory substitute for corn in
the grain ration of laying pullets for
winter egg production, the Dominion
Experimental Station, Lacombe, Al-
berta, conducted an experiment in
this connection during the last seven
years. Two groups of pullets of the
same age, strain and general de-
velopment were fed the same way
for a period of six months each year,
from. November to May, except that
in one pen both the scratch and mash
contained considerable corn, while in
the other pen the corn was left out
of the scratch and mash, barley and
barley meal being substituted. The
scratch feed was fed in the litter,
and the mash was dry fed in a hop-
per and was always available.
The average results of these tests
Backache is the most persistent symptom
of kidney troubles. Dr. Chase's Eldney-Liver
Pills entirely riot the system of the poisons
which cause backache, lumbago and other
painful and dangerous diseases. Used once
or twice a week they ensure the healthful
action of the liver, kidneys and bowels.
Dits6C14141SE'S
show that in so far as the number
of eggs prodelced ,was concerned,
there was practically no difference
lietwoen the corn fed pen and the
Harley fed pen over a period of sev-
en years, with a total of only seven
eggs more in favour of the barley.
Over a seven year period, however,
on account of the high cost of the
corn as compared with barley, the
cost per dozen of eggs produced was
on the average 2.3 cents in favour
of the barley fed pen. The results
would indicate that if the farmtr or
poultryman has a supply of good
quality 'barley, it will not be neces-
sary to purchase high priced corn for
egg production.,
In feeding barley it should be re-
membered that it is lacking in Vit-
amin A, while yellow corn is a good
source of this vitamin. In so far as
poultry is concerned a severe lack
of this vitamin has 0, tendency to
slow up growth in the young and to
cause a deficiency disease known as
opthalmia (an eye disease) not un-
common to poultry. Fortunately,
this vitamin deficiency -can be over-
come by the use of cod' liver oil, or
alfalfa leaves, or surplus vegetables.
Snow -Mould Turf Injury
During the past three years, the
Dominion Lalboratory of Plant Path-
ology at EdImenton, Alberta, has
found that the most important sin-
gle factor of the cause of winter in-
jury to lawns or putting greens is
due to a parasite called snow -mould.
The symptoms are 'first recognized
as soon as the snow melts in the
spring. As soon as the grass starts
to grow, dead areas are found in the
turf, which is sometimes covered
with an aerial growth of the snow -
mould fungus. The fungus is often
found to be growing into and through
the snow and ice over the turf. This
fungus attacks the plants, killing the
leaves, stems and roots,e.thns de-
stroying the crown of the plant. Such
plants do not usually recover, and,
thus, patches, somewhat circular in
outline, often coalescing ancl cover-
ing a large area, are found.
The' organism. causing snow -mould
has been isolated, inoculated into
healthy plants, re -isolated, a n d
identified by plant pathologists in
Europe and North Ahnerica. Control
of lsnow-mould has been attempted in
different ways with varying degrees
of success. Obviously the provision
for adequate surface drainage, al-
though it may aid, will not alone
control the disease. The use of re-
sistant varieties of grass would be
ideal, but unfortunately Ithiere are
apparently - no resistant varieties
cf grass would be ideal, but untfor-
tunately there are apparently no re-
sistant 'varieties now known. Me-
chanical attrition, or brushing the
turf, undoubtedly can be utilized' in
reducing the damage once it becomes
evident that snow -mould is present.
Hewever, this alone will not control
the disease. Removal of the snow
from the turf early in the spring,
before melting starts, is also helpful,
but, unfortunately, in some years
when the snow nearest the surface is
frozen, it is almost impos.sible to
carry this out without injuring the
turf. Therefore, albout the only
other alternative is the use of fun-
gicides or chemicals for killing the
parasite, but not -the turf.
The finest promising method, which
has been .successfully used by var-
ious ,golf clubs, is that of using a
preventive treatment which can be
applied the previous fall, and which
will serve to .protect the turf throughe
out the late fall, winter and early
spring. The treatment is as fol-
lows: .iMix 3 ounces of calomel
1 ounce of corrosive sublimate with
dry !sharp sand inl an eight -quart
bucket about threeJquarters full of
sand, for every 1,000 square feet a
turf surface. It is essential that the
size of the area to be treated be
fairly accurately known, as mercury
is quite toxic to the turf when used
in excessive amounts. The fungicide
should be thoroughly mixed with a -
small quantity of finely screened
sand or compost if fall applications
are to be made, It is preferable to,
allow the mixture to stand over
night. This mixture should be dis-
tributed evenly over the turf. Since
mercury is corrosive to metals and.
very poisonous care should be exer-
cised.

B. C. Apples
I A comprehensive apple thinuing
system which has been in operation
for sixteen years at the Dominion
Experimental Station at Summerland
B.C. has provided a wealth of data,
which is exerting a material influ-
ence on comMercial practice. Stor-
age experiments also have afforded
important data on the influence of
temperature on the life of Okanagan
apples and pears. In order to in-
sure the longest possible marketable
season for ,pears and for such varie-
ties of apples as McIntosh and De-
licious, prompt storage at 32 degrees
Fahrenheit is imperative.
