LESSON
THE VOICE OF WISDOM. --
Proverbs 4.
PRINTED TEXT, Prov. 4: 10.27.
GOLDEN TEXT.—
Keep thy heart with all diligence;
For out of It are the issues of Iife.
Prov, 4: 23.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING,
Time. No definite date can be
given for the writing of these chap-
ters, but the author of most of the
book of Proverbs, Solomon, flour-
ished about 1000 B,C,
Place.—No geographical location
is mentioned anywhere in this chap-
ter,
The emphasis throughout the op-
ening section of this chapter, as in.
deed throughout the entire book
of Proverbs, is on the priceless
value and infinite importance of
wisdom. Wisdom has been defined:
"In all the complex relations of
human life and conduct, to know
and do God's will." Wisdom is to
understand, so far as it is per-
mitted to man's finite intelligence,
the manifold adaptation and har-
mony, the beauty and utility, of
pod's works and ways, and to turn
our knowledge of them to practic-
al account.
In this lesson we have a remark-
able illustration of the infinitely
surpassing value of parental in•
etruction, especially in the matters
of true character and religious
faith.
Rewards of Wisdom
Four inevitable blessings are
promised in this chapter to those
who truly and consistently embrace
such wisdom in their own life, and
let it instruct them in all that they
plan and undertake: 1, Wisdom
will keep such a person from
trembling; 2, Wisdom will make
such a man's life balanced and
sane and healthy—whatever he un-
dertakes will succeed; 3, wisdom
will bring honor from his fellow
citizens to such a man; 4, finally,
such a man, as he goes on in years,
will find his whole life beautified
and adorned with a character of
strength, a character tried and test-
ed, a heart at peace because God
is known and trusted.
Two Paths of Life
The father here informs Ills son
concerning the two paths of life
and which one to follow, Prov, 4:
10.
11. Hear, 0 my son, and receive
my sayings; And the years of thy
life shall be many. 1 have taught
thee in the way of wisdom; I have
led thee in paths of uprightness,
12, When thou goest, thy steps
shall not be straightened; And it
thou runnest, thou shalt not
stumble, Widening of the steps is
an Oriental figure for the bold and
free movements of one in Asper-
ity, as the straitening (narrowing)
of them is the constrained and Lim -
Id action of one in adversity.
13. Take fast hold of instruction;
let her not go: Keep her; for she
is thy life.
14, Enter not into the path of the
wicked, And walk not in the way
of evil men,
15. Avoid it, Pass not by it; Turn
from it, and pass on, •
16. For they sleep not, except
they do evil; And their sleep is
taken away, unless they cause
some to fall.
17. For they eat the bread of
wickedness, And drink the wine of
violence.
Instruction of a positive nature
urging the son to walls in the way
of wisdom is now followed by in-
struction of a negative form, warn-
ing the son to keep far, far away
from the path of wicked men.
1,8. But the path of the righteous
is as the dawning light, That shin•
eth more and more unto the perfect
day,
19, The way of the wicked is as
darkness, They know not at what
they stumble.
Tho path of the righteous begins
like the light of dawn. It is small
In its beginning. The new-born
Christian is like a rising sun strug•
gling through the mists of morn.
Life of True Integrity
20, My son, attend to any words;
Incline thine ear unto my sayings,
• 21, Let them not depart from
thine eyes; Keep them in the midst
of thy heart.
22. For they are life unto those
that find them, And health to all
their flesh,
23, Keep thy heart with all dil-
igence; or out of it are the issues
of life.
The fountains and wells of the
East were watched over with spec.
!al care. A stone was rolled to the
mouth of the well so that "a spring
shut up, a fountain sealed" became
the type of all that is more jealous-
ly guarded, So it is here. The heart
is such a fountain; out of it flow
the issues of life.
24. Put away front thee a way-
'ward
ayWard mouth, And perverse lips put
far from thee.
The Hebrew word here translat-
ed "wayward" means literally dis-
tortion, and the phrase indicates
a twisting of the truth; perverse
lips are those that turn aside from
the truth.
26. Let thine eyes look right on,
And let thine eyelids. look straight
before thee,
M
Canadian "Clads" Are Planted In American Soil
Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Niagara Parks commission chairman, and
Ontario minister of highways, presents to Margaret Anne Mather cuts
tings of Canadian gladioli to be planted in American soil. Occasion
was dedication in Fort Erie, Ont., of Mather Park, named in honor of
Alonzo Mather, 91, Chicago and Los Angeles industrialist, who donated
the land. The park is the only memorial in Canada to a living Ameri-
can. The girl is a cousin of the donor.
26, Make level the path of thy
feet, And let all thy ways be estab•
hafted.
27. Turn not to the right hand
nor to the left: Remove thy foot
from evil.
Farm Notes . .
Weeds: Farmer's
Perpetual Enemy
Weeds are the farmer's per-
petual enemy and must be fought
continually says John D. Mac-
Leod, Crops, Seeds and Weeds
Branch, Ont, Dept. of Agricul-
ture, Toronto. It is unfortunate
that nature endows weeds with
more ability to maintain and per-
petuate themselves than it does
cultivated crops.
Here are a few figures as
quoted in the "Seed World"
showing the reproducing qualities
of weeds and the number of
years they will maintain their
germination:
Seeds per plant
Dock 8,000
Pig Weed 12,000
Mustard 20,000
Peppergrass 14,000
Buckthorn 2,000
Dodder 5,000
Smartweed 2,000
Sorrell 3,000
Thistle 9,000

In England it was discovered
weeds lived in the soil 58 years.
Tho United States Dept. of Ag-
riculture planted 107 varieties of
weeds and 51 grew after 21 years,
proving that weeds once in the
soil have an excellent chance to
produce at some period.
Here are a few disadvantages
of weeds:
1, Rob soil of fertility.
2. Make harvesting difficult.
3. Ct,st down yields.
4. Reduce quality of crop.
5. Reduce value of land.
G. Take needed moisture from
the soil.

GOOD DEED CLUB
When next Saturday morning
rolls around and the clock points
to 9.45—be sure your radio is
tuned to 1120 on the dial—for
once again the Good Deed Club
of the air will make its bow to
launch good deeds unlimited for
the eighth season in a row.
For those of you who aren't
acquainted with the Good Deed
Club, it's a radio show whose
members have merited their cer-
tificates by doing worthwhile
deeds. And you too, Johnny and
Mary, can win a membership,
and possibly a wrist watch or
four war savings stamps, if you
write in to the Gocd Deed Club
and tell then what you have done.
The Hamilton Good Deed Club
stays close to the rule that all
their performers must not be
more than 16 yrs. of age, so many
thousands have passed through
the orchestra, choir and specialty
groups that have been broadcast-
ing for the last seven years.
These youngsters are real kids
and put on a real show—so listen
in next Saturday morning at
9.46!

A Seed Shortage
Coming In 1942?
Dominion. Agricultural Sup.
plies Board Believes -Certain
Bi.ennlal Field Roots May
Then Be Short — Cabbage,
Beets, Cauliflower, Parsnips
The Seed Supply Conunittee of
the Agricultural Supplies Board,
which was formed after the ,out-
break of war last September, has
been following closely Canadian
seed supplies of cereals, fibre flax,
forage' crops, field roots and garden
vegetable seeds, For the seed sea-
son of 1940 normal seed supplies
were found available and the pros-
pects for 1941 'coed supplies now
are favourable,
Careful investigation of send
stocks on hand, seed imports and
exports and contracts for delivery
in 1941 and 1942• indicate a probe
able shortage in 1942 of curtain bi-
ennial field roots and vegetable
crops including Mangel, Swede, Gar-
den Beet, Cabbage, Cauliflower,
Parsnips and also two annual crops
Radish and Spinach,
DUTCH SUPPLIES CUT OFF
Respective seed shortages from
these crops are due to the cutting
oft of supplies from Holland and
Denmark and to uncertainty as to
quantities that may be imported
from Great Britain.
This situation was reported to
the Agricultural Supplies Board, at
the conference with representatives
of Provincial Departments of Agri-
culture, held in Ottawa, July 18 to
20. It was agreed at that time that
as an insurance against possible
shortage in 1942 the production of
seeds in Canada from approved
seed stocks of these crops of cer-
tain definite quantities under a joint
• plan between Provincial Depart -
meats of Agriculture and the Board
should be undertaken.
The Province's
Grain Harvest
Western Ontario, W a t e r -
Soaked, Is Weeks Behind
Schedule — Central and
Eastern Areas Report Much
Better Progress
Western and Southern Ontario,
water -soaked and with less than
half of its spring grain crop gar-
nered the first week end in Sep-
tember, showed marked contrast
with the counties in Central and
Eastern sections of the Province,
according to the weekly crop re-
port issued by the Department of
Agriculture.
Carleton, for example, report-
ed "splendid harvesting weather."
Frontenac reported "80 per cent
of the threshing is completed,"
while in Leeds "milk production
is falling somewhat due to dry-
ing of pastures." Prince Edward
reported "rain is badly, needed."
In Northumberland, more than
90 per cent of spring grain crops
had been harvested.
ENOUGH FEED FOR STOCK?
Agricultural officials were
hopeful that enough grain was
to be harvested in Western and
Southern Ontario to supply feed
for stock, but were not betting
on it. They definitely feared that
the sections would not be able to
produce seed grain for next
spring. Potatoes throughout these
entire districts were being at-
tacked by blight, and, it were es-
timated, scores of fields would be
a total loss.
The survey reveals that hun-
dreds of • acres of fall wheat,
which normally should have been
harvested in July, were still in
the stook. Sprouting had start-
ed in every county in the twn
areas.

Red Cross Is Asking For
Donations Suitable For Older
Boys and Girls and Adults
Sheltered In England
. More and more garments- for
girls and boys over ten, and for
adults, are urgently needed in
England to clothe the more than
100,000 refugees from the Chan-
nel Islands and the continent of
Europe, according to despatches
received by the Canadian Red
Cross Society.
Members of the more than 700
women's groups who resumed
their war time work for the Red
Cross in Toronto this month are
being asked -to devote much of
their efforts: 'for • the next few
months to providing: clothes for
these people who have, in many
cases, been moved abut so many
times that they have lost what
clothing .they ' had. Workers are
reminded that warm winter
clothing will soon be needed,
both for the English climate and
for children who may conic to
Canada in the next few months,
WARM WINTER ONES
Letters coming in to Red Cross
headquartrs tell of the gireat
appreciation felt for what has al-
ready been sent by Canadian wo-
men. A woman who has been
working constantly, alleviating
the distress among refugees,
writes to her mother, "We 'simply
burst into tears when we opened •
the box from Canada. Everything
was of such good quality, so well
made and so exactly what we
wanted."
All the garments , that are
shipped to England are made
from new material, it was pointed
out by Mrs, George Royce, act-
ing director of the Women's War
Work for Toronto Branch. She
says the women of Toronto have
done wonders in obtaining sup-
plies of good material. Many are
extremely clever at making gar-
ments out of small pieces of
goods. •

across the stage in a street
scene of a third-rate drama was

Leave Masks
Behind Them
Less Than Half The People
In England Are Now Carry-
ing Their Gas -Protectors
Gas masks which nearly every
Englishman carried at the out-
break of the war, have been dis-
appearing from the streets gradu-
ally but steadily until less than
half the population carries them
habitually.
An Englishman thinks nothing
of burdening himself daily with
an umbrella and an attache case
in which he may carry -anything
from papers to lunch and a
change of socks.
TOO MANY FORGOTTEN
But he was a bit upset when'
possession of a gas mask, as well
as a ticket, was demanded for
admission to a movie.
The movies soon found the
accumulation of forgotten masks
too great to cope with, and drop-
ped the rule.
There was a marked drop in the
number of gas mask carriers im-
mediately.
Women still generally carry
them, as well as accompanying
toddlers who lug containers al-
most half their size.
ONLY FALSE ALARM
But when German gas attacks
failed to materialize, attempts to
get the public accustomed to
wearing masks were chiefly lim-
ited to newspaper appeals and
warnings.
Some \business establishments
still insist on their employes don-
ning* the masks at intervals for
practice in working in them.
Since the start of the war Lon-
don has had one gas attack alarm,
and it was a false ajarm.

according to C. K. Howard, head
of the Fish and Game Depart-
ment, Canadian National Rail-
ways, ..
CLIFF LAKE SECTION
Among ' the many territories
making a sportsman's paradise is
the-- Cliff Lake section of North-
western Ontario, not only noted
for its big game hunting but also
as one of the finest muskie fishing
waters in America, stated Mr.
Howard. "Comfortable log cab-
ins have been erected on the
shores of this lake for the ac-
commodation of sportsmen visit-
ing the district on fishing or
hunting trips" he said. Fishing
consists primarily of muskies and
salmon trout, although there is
a good supply of pickerel and
great northern pike while the
district provides very good hunt-
ing for big and small game, as
well as waterfowl, stated Mr.
Howard. Of special interest to
the fall canoeing enthusiast are
the almost unlimited possibilities
of the region fur canoe travel,
he said. "Convenient canoe trips
up to a month's duration may be
arranged with the management
of Kenneally Lodge and Camps,
with office at Quibell, Ontario,
who, in addition, can supply
%canoes, guides, camping outfits
and provisions." Access to this
comparatively new _sports dis-
trict of the Cliff Lake section is
made at Quibell station on the
transcontinental line of the Can-
adian National Railways, where
guests are met and conducted to
camp.

Correct Breathing
Prevents Colds
In order that children's chests
may expand correctly it is of the
utmost importance that they
learn to breathe through their
noses from birth. Mouth breath-
ing means the introduction of
germs into the throat and breath-
ing passages. The nose acts as a
filter; having a lining of fine
hairs which stop the progress of
harmful particles. If the Mouth
is kept closed, the saliva is then
quite clean and healthy. If the
mouth is continually open it be-
comes dry and the saliva will bo
contaminated with germs. This
may lead infection to the tonsils.
Correct breathing through the
nose also expands the chest.
EXPANDS CHEST PROPERLY
If babies and young children do
not expand their chests while
their bones and muscles are soft,
they will grow up with narrow,
hollow chests. This will cause
insufficient lung expansion, and
cold and bronchitis will result,
Will you do all you can to see
that baby breathes correctly
from birth? His funny little nose
has not much spare space inside
it and any dried mucuc will soon
block it. Therefore clean it be-
fore he goes to sleep and when
you dress him in the morning.
If his nose is blocked his mouth
will fall open when he is asleep
and he will soon start a habit of
mouth breathing. Do not lay him
down on his back because in this
position his mouth is more likely
to fall open. If he turns on to
-tis back and his mouth conies
open when he is asleep, it is easy
to put a rolled up handkerchief
under his chin to keep his mouth
shut.
Baby must never wear anything
tight or restricting to his move-
ments, and stays that tie across
the chest are harmful. His clothes
must be loose and free, giving
complete freedom of arm move-
ment.

EMERGENCY CALL!
From the shores of our Motherland comes an appeal for help which
no true Canadian can fail to heed. While we live in comfort, death
drops on that embattled island. The need for Red Cross assistance
is urgent. Our sons and brothers are over there. On land, at sea,
in the air, they face death daily. We must be prepared to help them
when they are sick or wounded.
Red Cross help is needed on behalf of soldier and civilian alike.
Hospitals and hospital equipment, surgical supplies and dressings;
ambulances and X -Ray equipment will be needed. Overnight the
need may become so urgent that lives may be sacrificed if help
cannot be sent at once.
Never before has there been so great a need for Red Cross assistance.
This challenge to humanity must be answered. Give to the Red
Cross. Give to the utmost NOW 1

THE WAR •WEE K—Comrnentary on Current Events
"Come All Against Her,
England Yet Shall Stand"
The final death struggle be-
tween Britain and Germany ap-
peared last week to have begun.
The German Air Force was
throwing its colossal strength
into an "all-out" attack against
the British Isles, with three main
objectives: the destruction of the
fighting power of the Royal Air
Force; paralysis of Britain's sup-
ply system by sea and by land;
the shattering of civilian nerves,
the breaking of the people's mor-
ale in the face of an imminent
invasion.
Great Britain, shuddering
through the most soul-destroying
experience in her history, held on
grimly with a three -fold hope:
that the blockade against Ger-
many would soon become serious
enough to cripple the Nazi war
machine; that the relentless at-
tacks of the R.A.F. could disrupt
German industrial and commer-
cial life, ward off an invasion;
that the Nazi air effort would
exhaust itself before British en-
durance came to an end.
A "50.50 Chance"
In Berlin, high-ranking Nazis
declared that new waves of Ger-
man bombers flying against Lon.
don would carry out remorseless
and incessant warfare until (ac-
cording to a United Press dis-
patch), "the smoking ruins of in-
dustrial and military objectives,
decimation of the British Air
Force and shattered morale of
the British people bring into
power a government that will ac-
cept German terms.", The terms
were regarded as unconditional
capitulation.
U. S. Secretary of the Navy
Frank Knox last week gave Britain
a "better than 50-50 chance" to
hold out. He declared that the ex-
istence of the British fleet bottled
up the German navy and that the
Nazis had been unable to establish
sufficient air supremacy to make
surface Invasion of England feas-
ible . Lieutenant -General Sir
Ronald Adarn, General Officer Com-
manding the Northern Command in
Great Britain, told the people that
the next fifteen days would show
them "what is to happen" with re-
gard to a Naxi invasion, If the R,
A. F, could retain mastery of the
air until September 21, he intim-
ated, Britons could then prepare for
a great offensive against Germ-
any... , Meantime the world knew
that enormous help would be com-
ing to Britain from the United
States in the form of planes, am-
munition and other war material.
Our Ex -Allies
Threo important leaders of old
France were arrested during the
week, former Premiers Edouard
1)aladier and Paul Reynaud, and
the former Commander of the Al-
lied Forces, Gen. Marie -Gustavo
Ga melin, Their detention was or-
dered under authority of a decree
law drawn up by Daladier him-
self when war broke out September
1939, providing for internment
of persons considered dangerous to
the national defence and public
security , , , Word -ame from Vichy
that a new Cabinet had been form-
ed under Marshal Petain. It includ.
ed Pierre Laval as vice -premier
and General Charles Huntzhnger as
the new minister of war, Marshal
Petaiu took over the office of chief
of state and Gen. Maximo Wegand
was designated to go to North Af-
rica in charge of all political and
military matters.
Armed Peace In Balkans
Out of the spotlight for the time
being, the Balkans were neverthe-
less still seething. King Carol, ac-
companied by his sweetheart Ma-
dame Lupescu and riding in a bul-
let -pocked train, had escaped into
exile, leaving his country in a state
of turmoil. The Rumanian masses,
under the heel of Antonescu's mil-
itary dictatorship, wore already in
a state of near -revolt, while relig-
ious persecution campaigns corn-
ered thousands of hapless individ-
uals , .. German troops moved up
to police the Rumanian border with
the Soviet Union — a United Press
dispatch estimated that 1,000,000
German soldiers faced the Iced
Army along a lino from Norway to
the Black Sea , .. A military move
against Yugoslavia appeared in the
offing — the magazine "Newsweek"
quoted from highly -placed diplo-
matic sources that the Axis has
prepared complete plans for: rud-
der, occupation by Italian troops
of the Dalmatian coast; 2, simul-
taneous German move across the
Croatian border; and overthrow of
Prince Paul's regency, establishing
in its place a puppet Axis govern-
ment...
Brewing In The Mediterranean
Italy was llefiu ely up to some-
thing big in the Mediterranean bas-
in meanwhile — either the long -
threatened drive against the Suez
Canal; or an early attempt to oc-
cupy French -mandated Syria. As-
sociated Press correspondent Ed-
ward E. Bomar expressed the opin-
ion that in view of Italy's limited
resources in oil and other muni-
tions, the restlessness of the It-
alian public, something more de-
cisive than the odd air raid on
British bases or convoys was on
the books , , . Iteady to deal with
any new action in the war's south-
ern theatre, Britain was busy re-
inforcing her Near East fighting
forces with thousands of troops

In Washington last week the
United States placed orders for 201
warships involving an outlay of
$3,861,053,312 — the largest defence
contract ever let In American his-
tory, The 'order followed a few
hours after President Roosevelt's
signature of tho $5,251,000,000 de-
fense appropriation bill at Hyde
Park, Tho United States' gigantic
preparedness program was moving
ahead.
U. S. After World Supremacy
Commenting on domestic affairs,
the U. S. columnist, Raymond Clap-
per, wrote last week: "Our role is
to seize world naval and air sup-
romaey , .. Our role is to bo hard-
headed and shrewd and to play with
cold calculation for the stakes that
aro within our grasp , , , Our role
is to assist the British to hold out
so that they can preserve their sea
power . . . We must solidity the
western hemisphere." .. .
Birdmen From Canada
At homo in Canada, the deputy -
minister of defence for air, James
B. Duncan, announced that thous-
ands of fighting pilots, air gunners
and observers trained in Canada
would "soon" start streaming to-
ward England to fight with the R.
.A, F. "Our task," he said, "is to
provide the United Kingdom with
an ever-increasing flow of air
crews, whose arrival overseas Is
to coincide with ever -Increasing
supply of aircraft from British and
American sources."
The Canadian -American joint de-
fense board sat in Washington dis-
cussing air and navel bases, stra-
tegic highways, military supplies
for Canada. As a result of its de-
cision, it was expected (as one Can-
adian writer expressed it) that "Be-
fore long the Union Jack and the
Stars and Stripes will fly together
over Canadian strongholds on At-
lantic and Pacific coast . , . Before
long Canadian pilots will fly over
American soil and American pilots
over Canadian soil."
534,000,000 Bushels
If the war had not been going
on, the bumper crop in the Canad-
ian West (more bumper even than
last year) would have been head-
line news every (lay of the week
. and the problem of what to
do with 534,000,000 bushels of 1940
wheat would have occupied the
main field of attention ... Never-
theless the government was busy
on a plan whereby cash might be
advanced to farmers for the wheat
they must keep at home — there
would be no room to store it in the
elevators,
Lives in a Fish
Probably the only person in
the world to own a private sub-
marine is Mr. Barney Connett,
of Chicago, who has a home-made
affair which resembles a huge
fish, complete with mouth, eyes,
fins, tail, and scales. It is 11 ft.
long, 37 ins. high, and 23 ins.
at the widest point. The interior
is fitted with submarine equip-
ment, blowers, oxygen apparatus,
air pump, respirator, and storage
batteries. Already Mr. Connett
has made 300 trips in his queer
fish, and has travelled as far ns
fourteen miles under water in a
single journey. As his periscope
is only four feet long, lie usually
runs at a depth of three feet
below the waves, but he has been

Salting Down
Your Beans
They Will Keep All Winter
If Properly Done
Beans should be salted down in
large stone or glass jars or any
other larger receptacles. Plenty of
salt must be used or the beans may
become slimy and useless.
Allow, a good 1 lb. salt to 3 lbs.
beans, 1[ave ?she beans young and
lender, and see that none have
farmed any hard inner skin, Strang
them, and while'the small ones can
bo left whole, the larger ones may
be sliced.
CI-IOOS1 'EM YOUNG, TENDER
Sprinkle a layer of salt at the
bottom of the jar, and cover with
a layer of beans mixed with a little
salt. Proceed in layers until the jar
Is filled, pressing down each layer
with the hands and having salt as
top layer. Leave for two. or three
days for the beans to sink, and
fill up again with layers of beans
and salt. Allow to sink again and
fill up till the jar Is tightly pack-
ed with a good layer of salt on
top.
Seal the jar tightly. You can do
this with a cork that has been
dipped in melted paraffin wax; run
a little wax over the top,
If the jar has too wide a mouth
for a cork to fit, fasten over with
a bladder or several thicknesses of
parchment, and cover to prevent
evaporation, Store in a cool place,
UON'T SOAK OVEItNIGHT
When you cook the beans, wash
•ell and soak for two hours
In warm water; rinse and cools In
the usual way for about half an
hole', but use no added salt,
If the beans aro found to ho sally
after the first trial, give them n
preliminary boil up after soaking,
throw the water away and boll as
usual,
Note.—If the beans etre ^soake(i
overnight before cooking, they may
tend to become tough.

We use oranges to make mar.

was made of quinces, and the
word is derived from the Latin

of in the reign of Henry VIll.
in a letter of this king to Lady
Lisle, he "most heartily thank-
eth her good ladyship for her

of Lady Lisle we learn that the
