Already radio-telephone conver- sations have been carried on be- tween Fort McMurray, 280 miles northwest of Edmonton, and Alber- ta centres on the experimental system, similar to others used with success in many parts of the world. Eleven British Columbia points are connected on a provincial govern- ment system there. Accelerate Development » The system, expected to acceler- ate development throughout the north, involves use of regular tele- phone equipment as. far as Edmon- ton where wireless links the speak- er with persons in camps scattered throughout the vast northern min- ing and, fur-trading fields. Indian Relics For University The Museum of Indian Archeology of the University of Western Ontario became the richer this week as the result of a gift of over 800 pieces of Indian artifacts, the private collection of Quimby Hess, of Zurich, Ont. , Gathered and collected by Mr. Hess over a number of years, the Indian artifacts are all from the territory between Grand Bend and Zurich, relate' to the Neutral Indians bounded by Lake Huron, and who inhabited this territory. One of the interesting items of the collection is a carved slate stone, bearing a pictorial tribal message of warning. An archaeological interpretation of the Indian message will be made soon. Garden Treachery "'’"sny Of the Plants in Your 'Favorite Border Contain Deadly Poison dery likely you have horseradish in your garden, and, not far off, those pretty blue-flowered plants called Monkshood. When the flow- ers and leaves, have died down at the approach of winter, you n^ay go, as' many others have done, to dig for' a root of horseradish to go with the Sunday beef. Be very careful. The root you are after is very like that of Monkshood, and this contains quantities of one of the most deadly poisons known, aconitin. The thirtieth part of a grain would kill you. The taste is rather like horseradish at first, but soon the lips and tongue begin to tingle, and numbness spreads over the whole body, ending at last in paralysis and death. Henbane is another dangerous plant, common in the kitchen-gar- den, a weed. It belongs to the same family as the potato and tomato, and has sometimes been cooked with the greens, as it is quite a small plant. • You can tell it by its rather large dirty-yellow flowers, with a network of purple veins Foxglove everybody knows.' It is a common enough plant, but rec- koned handsome enough to set in the flower-garden. Every part of it contains digitalin, another danger- ous poison, that weakens the action of the heart to such a degrpe that people have been known to drop dead after taking it, simply from a sudden change of position, such as getting up from a chair. 7,204 New Autos Bought In August Sales of new motor vehicles in Canada during August totalled 7,204 units at I8,ois,020, com- pared with 9,074 at $9,521,833 in August, 1937, the Dominion Bur- eau of Statistics reports. Sales for the first eight months of 1938 numbered 92,085, retailing for $102,352,967, against 115,998 at $117,947,293 in the 1937 period. LESSON III REVERENCE FOR GOD Exodus 20:7; Matthew 5:33-37; 12:33-37. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.â€"The Ten Commandetits were given 1498 B.C, The Sermon on the Mount was uttered by our Lord in. the summer of A.D. 28, and the incident recorded at Capernaum in the autumn of the same year. Place,â€"The Ten Commandments were given on Mount Sinai. It is not) known on what mountain in Palestine our Lord delivered his great sermon. , Capernaum is locat- ed at the northern end of the Sea of Galilee. 7. Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Je- hovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. The Third Commandment continues to dwell upon the sacredness of the relationship that should exist be- tween God and man, but in this par- ticular case deals exclusively with man's speech, declaring that he should not take the name, of the Lord his God in vain. The Hebrew word here translated “in vain’’ means, literally, “to make use of for any idle, frivolous, or in- sincere purpose,” Thus, God’s name is not to be desecrated either by false swearing or by being used dis- respectfully for any other frivolous or idle purpose, as in cursing or reviling, or to support false preten- sions of being able to use magic or divination, or to predict the future. Another way by which men can use the name of the Lord irrever- ently is by insincerity of life, by hypocrisy, by pretending one thing with’ the words that they utter, when in reality they are determin- ed to live a life entirely contrary to what their words would indicate. Christ’s Interpretations Matt. 5:33-37. 33. Again, ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths: 34. but I say un- to you, Swear not at all: neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God; 35. nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36. Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black. "DR. CHRISTIAN” Rosemary DeCamp, lovely young screen starlet, will again play the role of “Judy Price,” secretary to a kindly country doctor, when the dramatic serial, “Dr. Christian,” starring Jean Hersliolt resumes on . the Columbia network Tuesday, Oc- tober 18. (WABC-CBS, 10.00 to 10.30 p.m., EST). A college gradu- ate. Miss DeCamp decided on a mo- vie career before ever considering r a d i o. and was chosen for a part in the ‘‘Dr. Christian” series .from numerous applicants. She Is athletic, enjoys horseback riding and swimming, and has danced Rosemary professionally DeCamp since a child. JACK BENNY PLAYED HIMSELF Jack Benny, popular comedian, played himself during a dramatiza- tion of the spooky comedy, “Seven Keys Ijo Baldpate” which was pre- sented by the “Lux Radio The- ater" over the Columbia network Monday, Septem- ber 26 (WABC- CBS, 9.00 to 10.00 p.m., EST). Mary Livingston (Mrs. Jack Benny) as well as Cecil B. DeMille, the pro- gram’s producer also played them- selves in a new version of this old play. 37. But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay; and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil one. The Jewish people of our Lord’s day were taught “that only oaths need be kept, and not all of them, only certain forms of swearing were binding. Christ says that such distinctions are iniquitous. All oaths are binding, but no oaths ought to be used, because a man’s word ought to be enough. NEWEST RADIOS The 1939 DeForest Crosley Auto- matic Radios offer many new and especially convenient features for women. Due to the accuracy of response from powerful stations, by just the simple press of a button, one is assured of perfect ‘‘On Sta- tion” resonance without distortion. Besides the “No-Stoop” Sloping console tuning panel which DeFor- est Crosley originated, the five short-wave bands are spread out- each 10” wideâ€"-so that foreign re- ception is as simple to tune as standard broadcast stations. GABRIEL HEATTER OF “WE, THE PEOPLE” Gabriel Heatter, crack newspa- perman and veteran radio commen- tator got in some last moments of relaxation before the start of his busiest radio season which began when his famous “Wo, The People” programs made their debut for the 1938-1939 season over the Colum- bia network on Tuesday, Septem- ber 27.: (WABC- CBS, 9,00 to 9.30 p.m., EST). Two years ago when “We The People” was first “aired” and won the aw- ard as being “the outstanding idea show of 1936,” Heatter substitut- ed as its host and commentator dur- Gabriel 1 mg Phillip Lord’s Heatter vacation. Last season he was its regular “master- of-Ceremonies. So this really marks liis third year with the popular show. â-  When our Lord said that to swear by an oath was something that came “of evil," he either meant that the oath was necessary be- cause of the tendency to lie in the hearts of men, and therefore in it- self witnessed to man’s mistrust of men, or as often is the case, our Lord would indicate that many oaths are uttered to support or con- firm what the one so speaking knows to be a lie, and thereby the sin of the falsehood is multiplied, the heart of the one speaking the falsehood is the blacker, and evil itself thereby is multiplied in that person’s heart. Matt. 12:33-37. Our Lord, previ- ous to speaking the words which are assigned to our lesson, had cast out a demon from one who was brought to him suffering blindness and dumbness, as well as this evil possession. 33. Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt for the tree is known by its fruit. 34. Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35. The good man out of his good treasure bring- eth forth good things; and the evil man out of his evil treasure bring- eth forth evil things. See also Matt. 7:16-20; Luke 6:45. The fruit that is borne is determined by the ra- ture of the tree. Words are pror ducts. If a man’s life is evil-at the center, you can expect nothing else but evil words as the fruit of that life. If a man is soundly good, his words will be soundly wholesome and true. There is nothing which we need more these days than the cultiva- tion of noble thinking, and the stor- ing in our hearts of vast treasures of the finest things in life and lit- erature, a purpose that will lead us ’to observe the beautiful and to hate the ugly. 36. And I say unto you, that every idle' word that men ' shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and- by thy words thou shalt bo con- demned. An “idle” word is simply an ineffectual word or an insipid word, “an index of thoughtlessness, if not of malice.” Idle or wicked words are but the expression of a man’s character, and as such will form a basis for judgment in the last day, when the things done in the body will be judged (2 Cor. 5: 10). Hobby Source Of Pleasure May Cost Little or Much,. But It’s Always Fun Before embarking on a new hobbÿ it is necessary to have some preliminary information â€" some- thing of the character of the craft, the initial cost of the equipment, good books of instruction, other methods of learning, practical uses, and outlets for sales. No one craft is suitable for every woman. An older woman with consecutive hours of freedom could study a craft such as cabin- etmaking at a studio, while a very busy young mother might weave in the evening. Some hobbies such as. photography, wood-work, and sketching, a husband and wife can share ; others are exclusively feminine. Some cost little or noth- ing; some can be worked at for 10 minutes and then dropped; and some can be entirely self-taught. Having a Craft There is nothing new to be said about the pleasures of having a real hobby, but most people do not realize how . constructive these pleasures are or how they enrich every aspect of the hobbyist’s life. The instinct for sound craftsman- ship carries over into humdrum daily duties; studios, workshops, exhibitions, libraries, museums all suddenly develop to deep and lively interest; and best of all there, is a generous welcome from the fascinating, international, and historical brotherhood of fellow craftsmen. Launch New Naval Unit la Pacifie H.M.C.S. Nootka slid into the water alongside the Esquiraalt plant of Yarrow, Limited, Victoria, B.C., last week, the fourth Cana- dian vessel to be launched this yqar. Just before the little mine sweeper was launched, Mrs. Eric Hamber, wife of British Colum- bia’s Lieutenant-Governor, smash- ed the traditional bottle of cham- pagne over the prow and gave the vessel its name. The Nootka was then drawn up alongside the Yarrow outfitting jetty where the ship will be mado ready for patrolling the Canadian Pacific coastline and, in the event of war, protecting the Dominion shores from enemy ships. The launching of Nootka follow- ed by scarcely more than a month that of a sister ship, the Comox, at a North Vancouver shipyard. Previously two other minesweep- ers were launched in eastern ship- yards. Egypt’s Minister of the Interior is taking- a census of street haw- kers.
