These {*ocks are in silk and though they sre called ten- nis dresses, are frequently dainty and individual enough in their styling to be.worn for spectator sports. Processing against showers--Ilast year It was done on a comparatively small scale, since the shower-proof process had been considered in cost. uming principally for raincoatts. This spring, however, the practicality and selling power of the ldaexa has grown tremendousky in sportswear, with knitwear, lineh suits, and fannel golf skirts illustrating some cf the groups to come under its influence. Heads have become demure with braids and coft coils worn in a halo above the brow. Some ef the smart- est arrangements are achieved with braided coronets of artificial hair-or with a row of saucy curls along the nape of the neck, For swimming, ten- nis, golf, and *other sports the chic woman wears a bob, even briefer than last season, but wilt. evening she dons strands of (ong hair In keeping with formal dress.

(23).--June 10. Jesus on the Cross, -- Matthew 26:1-66. Golden Text.--Looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured' the cross, des- pising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.--Heb, 12:2. The Lesson in its Setting. - TIME--Friday, April 7, A.D., 30. Place---Jerusalem, the. Praetorium the Via Dolorosa, Calvary. PARALLEL, PASSAGES--Mark, 15; Luke 23; John 18 : 28--19--19: 42, : "And "when they were come unto a place calied Golgptha, that is to say, The place of a skull." Golgotha from the Aramaic and Calvary from the 1-4 cap sweetened Latin both mean the "place of a skull. -{ ot a white tablet was nailed to "They gave him wine to drink mingled with gall." This was a nar- cotic drink prepared regularly for the condemned by a guild of kindly women in Jerusalem. "And when he had tasted it." An act. of courtesy characteristic of our Saviour. "He would not drink." Doubtless® the refusal was with thanks. The cross is the crowning 'se- rvice of his life. "For such hours, when tremendous demands are 'going are going to be imposed a man must be at his clearest and his best." » "And when théy had crucified him' They stretched his body on the cross as it lay on the ground and drove a long spike through each hand into the crosshar, and another through the crossed feet into the upright of the cross. Then they raised the cross and let it fall with a sickening wrench in- to the hole prepared for. It was at this time, seemingly, that Jesus utter- ed the first of the recorded "words from the cross," the wonderful pray- er for his crucifiers, "Father, forg- ive them for they know not what not what do. "They parted his garments among them, casting." Our Lord was guard- ed from possible rescue by his friends by a quaternion of four Roman sold- diers over whom was a centurion. The clothes of the crueif~d were the perquisities of these soldiers. "And they sat and watched him there." They who represruted the world's greatest Streng'h watched thus heedlessly beside IIim who was | the world's greatest Love. They were of course the soldiers of Rome, "And they set up over his head his accusation written, This fz Jesus, the | King of the Jews." Accosding to cust- kis cross setting forth the crime of the 'person crucified. - "Then are there crucified with him 2 robbers, one to the right hand and one on the left." These were bandits, highwaymen ~ Rk "And they that passed hy railed on him, wagging their 'heads. A great crowd was continually passing by, for the road near the cross wage the prin cipal road vorthward, There has al ways héen a thiorng of infidels wag- ging their heads at him and theve al- ways will be. "Any saying, Thou that destoyed the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself." They had heard the charge brought against Jesus at his trial. "If thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross. Our Lord had "openly claimed to bo the Son 'of God, and that claim was-basis of charge of blasphemy. "In like manner also, the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders." These members of the Sanhedrin in their" hatred forzot their dignity and came out to 'gloat. (Said,) 42. "He saved others." This was a tremendous and self-en- criminating admission . They hung him on the cross! "Himself he cannot save." Thus unwittingly the foes of Christ expressed the central truth of his life, his atonement for the sin of the world, . "Let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe on him." Such belief was not what the Saviour wanted. He wanted the be- lief that would take up its cross and follow him along the path of loving sacrifice "He trusteth on God." Possibly no 'better testimony upon this point can be found in all the Scriptures than that taken from the lips of his! deadliest foes." "Let him deliver him now if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God." These critics were basing their argument on the merely human plane. ' "And the robbers also that. were crucified with him cast upon him the same reproach." At first, probably, both of the robbers joined in essail- ing the divine occupant of the cent-' ral cross; but as the day wore on, one of them, moved by the sublime attitude of the Saviour, and perhaps having some previous knowledge of his character and teachings, was actually "converted. "Now from the sixth hour (noon, the day beginning at 6 A.M.) there was darkress over all the land until the ninth hour" (3 P.M, It was passover and the moon was full, so that the darkness was not caused by an eclipse, but was + supernatural, nature joining with the sufferings of the Creator. The crucifixion began at the "hird hour, the time of the daily morning sacrifice in the temple, and the height of Christ's sufferings and his death occurred at the ninth hour, the time of the daily evening sacrifice, "The darkness at the cross speaks to us of the mystery of Ato- nement. "And about the ninth hour Jesus had spoken the third word from the cross, his loving commen- dation of his mother to John the beloved disciple, who from that hour took .her to his own house. "Jesus cried with .a loud voice." Showing that his physical energies were still n far from exhausted. "Eli, Iii, lama sabachtani?" He was quoting in the Aramais, Ps, 22 : 1, "That is, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" | "He does not say, "O God" but 'My God." | "And some of them that stood | there, when they heard it, said, This man called Elijah," They interpreted | "El "My God," as a summons to the grand old prophet Elijah who | was to some as a herald of the Mes-, siah. : : "And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, " The sour wine, a cask of which had been placed there for the refreshment. of the «soldiers. "Andi put it on a reed." John says upon al stalk of the hyssop weed, that they might lift it up tg. Christ's mouth. "And gave him to drink." Our Lord had refused the stupefying potion at the beginning of his ordeal, but! this bit of moisture on a sponge | would not becloud his brain for the few moments that remained. "And the rest said, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to save him." Their hard hearts wanted no interference; let Christ's misery | rise to the sharpest pitch so that] Elijah may come and provide us] with a spectacle a thrill So callous is man's cruelty. ' "And Jesus cried again with aj lougd voice. It was a shout of triumph] for he -had won the final victory.

He had completed his work,! he had made the sacrifice for sin, he! had opened up a living way from man to God. Is Critical of | Canadians Flowers Did You Ever Stop to Think? J. M. Stevenson, publisher of the South Bend, Ind. News-Times, rays: "The fundamental purpose of afver- tising is to inform the prospective buyer. No medium has Leen develop. ed, even by high pressure methods of moder business, which begins to ap- proach the newspaper in the fulfill ment of this aim, "The agency is universal for almost everyone is able to read and they all read one newspaper or another. Hence the newspaper advertisement will reach practically all of the purchasing public. In the last analysis, that is what the advertiser sees to do "Most advertising is devoted to a buying opportunity and the majority of these have time as their escence. No periodical can bring to the atten. tion of the public the merchant's bar- gains except the new: paper, It strikes while the iron is hot. "The radio has a weakness equal to that of the periodical, for the air ad- vertisement 'is gene in oa flash, leav- ing no lasting impression with the hearer. The newspaper advertise ment, on the contrary, is a continu- ous impression of a recorded fact, to which the reader can refer for coms parisons or to refiesh his mind as he starts shopping, Tuen, too the press can give a reproduction of the ticle, and nothing can he more eflee- tive than visual presentment "I"inally, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Since advertising began, no agency has produced, or can produce, the substantial results of the newspaper." The "Perfect" Murder What some English papers are cal- ling the *'peifect murder" has come to light near Clitheroe.

Family It is always a tender qnestior how to break the news of a vew hoby to the "other baby"--the little two or three-year-old who has been the centre of the universe until the 'atest birthday in the family. You can get around it very well with the older child, the little boy or girl of five or six. They can be told the baby is coming, help to get ready tar it, and be partners in "our baby." 'But the younger child won't wader stand all the preparations and he won't be ready. Yet it is better, if it can be done, not to break his little heart even for a day. He'll get used to it, of course, but who knows what jealousies or antagonisms against 'sisters or bro- thers have their beginnings at this time? It never does to disregard a Tittle child's reactions-- because he is only two or three years old Too often we use the old alibi about him getting used to things. He mey not get over his first shock. or not al together, .as long as he lives, Getting Acquainted One little 'fellow 1 know thas a sister. Ie hasn't seen her yet be- cause she is still in the hospital and hospitals have a way with them about segregating new habiez from street germs that visitors may bring fn, even nice little brothers. So he will have to wait un'il his mother aid new sister get home be- tore making her acquaintance. No one in the family 'has said, "you're not mama's baby any more. She has a new baby row." Great care has been taken to avoid any teasing about "roses being ont of joint" and all that kind of talk.

The nurse will probably say, I think it will happen something like this. There -is a the new basinefte baby in the Without his knowing it _the latest baby will be carried in and laid in her bed. After Jimmy's re-anion with his mother is over and he has dis- covered she loves him 2s mah as ever after being away he will be call. ready for new nursery, "Here's Jimmy's new baby: Isn't she nice? She's yours. Your, little sister. Sit down on your little chair and I'll put her on your lap." He will sit down in -great excite; ment. Nurse will lift the bundle from the bed and lay it on its brother's lap, holding it caretylly, of course. He will have time to examine it --eyes, nose, mouth and little hands. He will be enormously interested. How the nurse will say, "Let's show mama. 'Let us take the haby in to mama. I guess I'l] carry her but you hold her dress. We'll both carrey her." They go in and lay her on mama's bed, The lady will be ever so sur- prised. - Together they will admire the new visitor. And from tha' min- ute on I predict Jimmy will take his mother's care of the baby entirely from granted with no stab of hurt. If this seems a roundabout intro-| duction and all "phooy," I shoud like! to say that I don't consider [+ so, but on the contrary very wise.

The quan- tities of elit: seed they are able to produce each year are limited, saya Mr. G. H. Clark, Seed Commissioner, Dominion Department of Agriculture. Those farmers who specialize in seed growing find it necessary in practice to go back to the plant breeder every few years for a fresh supply of elite seed. Our system of inspection and registration, or certification as to variety or quality, of seed crops is in effect a follow-up system with a view to maintaining the highest possible degree of purity in this elite seed stock while it is being multiplied in quantity for commerce by those farmers who elect to make a specialty of seed growing. Only grain of sup- erior quality, and of varieties of cach kind that will blend together to make bulk quantities for commerce, may be admitted to the system of registra- tion of seed crops. They are. known as "Approved" varieties.
