GOLDEN TEXT.--He himself said, It is more blessed to give than to re- ceive. Acts 20 : 35. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--The events described in Acts 4 : 32-35 occurred in the sum- mer of 'A.D. 30; the appointment of the deacons occurred five years later, - A.D. 85; the raising of Dorcas oc- curred five years later still, A.D. 40. The Seeond Epistle to the Corinthians was written approximately A.D. 57. . The first Epistle of Joh was written many 'years later, AD, 90,. . Placé.--The distribution, of pro- perty in the early church and the appointment of deacons took place in the city of 'Jerusalem; the raising of Doreas*éccinred at Joppa, thirty-five mile from Jerusalem, on the Medi- terranean coast, : : "And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and soul." [(See 1 Chron. 12 : 38; Jer, 82 : 39; Phil. 1 : 27; 2 : 2, 20). Aristole ascribes to Diogenes Laertius the following definition of friendship -- 'one soul 'residing in two bodies." "And not one of them said that aught of tho things which he possessed vas his own; but they had all things com- mon." The statement will be com- mented upon when we come to verse ' "And: fi gréat power gave the apostles tl itness of the resurree- a § some time after tion of the Lord Jesus." The resurree- tion of Christ was the fundamental theme of apostoli¢ preaching, but in- cluded in it was, of course, the person and life and death of Jesus Christ. "And great grace was upon them all." (Cf. Luke2 : 52; Acts 2 : 47). The phrase probably means that the grace of God was mightily "upon them, enabling them to live a truly Christian life. . . "For neither was there among them any 'that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold. And laid them at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto each, according as any one had need." This common posses- sion of goods in the early church has often becn used as an argument for socialism and even communism, but this is misinterpreting the passage. A number of things m st be remem- bered: in the first place, it was strict- ly a voluntary matter. There was no law about this in the early church, and no believer was compelled to sell his possessions if he was not led to dc so byshis own conscience. This Sorento only among' be- lievers. Where love is absent, to en- force such a condition is disastrous, Furthermore, it does not appear that every man in the church sold all of his property, nor that even those who «id so sold all that they had, More over, when the fresh warmth of Pentecostal life departed, this prac- tice was given up. It is never re- Junto the riches of their liberality," '| that as he had made a beginning be- practised outside the city of JYeru- salem. - "Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God which | hath been given in the churches of Macedonia." The churches of Mace- donia are those at Philippi, Thessa- lonica, and Beroea. ! "How that'in much proof of afflic- tion." "Tribulation has brought out Macedonian churches." "The abund- ance of their joy." A-strange clause to ba found in a sentence describing trouble and poverty. Their joy really exceeded their "distress, so that the distress became 'insignificant. in com- | parison." "And their deep poverty." The word "deep" mean 'down to the depth," and indicates that their po. verty had already reached the lowest possible stage. The Romans had been especially hard on them. "Abounded The clause would seem to mean that there was a simplicity of purpage in the hearts of these people which at- tracted them toward relieving the necessities of others. The apostle is speaking of the largeness, not of their gifts, but of their minds, i "For according to their power, I bear witness, yea and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord." It shauld be 'especially noted that they gave "of their own accord," i.e., "not of necessity" (see 2 Cor. 9 : m. "Besceching us with much en- treaty." Probably the apostle had' been reluctant to take money from these people who were so extremely receive what they could give for the poor in Jerusalem. "In regard of this grace and the fellowship in the min- istering to the saints." Threc beau- tiful words are here used in deserib- ing their gifts to others--"grace" (see 1 Cor. 16 : 3); "fellowship" (Rom. 15 : 26); and, finally, "administer- ing" (2 Cor. 9 : 1, 12). "And this, not as we had hoped, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God." (Cf. Ex. 14 : 31). "They placed themselves at the apostle's dis- posal for the service of Christ." "Insomuch that we exhorted Titus, foré, so he would also complete in you this grac: also." "It seems clear from the words 'as he had begun' that Titus went a second time to Corinth before the apostle arrived there. His first visit began, his see- ond completed, the collections for the saints." 3 ' "But as yc wbound in everything, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all earnestness, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also." Here, for the third time, is liberality in giving called a "grace." Without the presence of liberality in the life of" Christians, there is a de- cided incompleteness in their Chris- tian experience and activity. "T speak not by way of command- ment, but as proving through the carnesiness of others the sincerity also of your love." A Christian who claims to love other believers and the Lord Jesus can show the sincerity of such devotion in no greater way than by relieving those whom he loves when they are in distress. "For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor. that ye through his poverty might become rich." Dr. A. C. Gaebe- lein, in his remarkable message on this verse, reminds us that Christ was rich in possessions (Ps. 19 : 1; 24 : 1); in love (John 17 : 24); in glory John 17: 5; all these would the Lord Jesus, for our sakes, give up. He faced voluntary impoverishment that we might be made rich. Spraying Celery While leaf and stalk blights may be responsible for greater losses than any other factor in the culture of ce- lery, these diseases can be controlled with comparatively little effort and a minimum of expense if prescribed recommendations are followed. 14 the disease is to be controlled, steps should be taken hefore the. disease has appeared in the field. For the -control of blights the pro- cedure-is just as important as the ma- terial used, because even the best and most effective fungicide can be ineffective if improperly applied. Re- gardless of the spray or dust to be. used, applications of fungicide should be made, at sufficiently frequent in- tervals throughout the growing sea- son, to keep the foliage covered by the protective film, which necessi- tates spraying or dusting every weék or ten days, from the time growth commences until the plants are har- vested, If applications are made less frequently, the unfolding tissue is not sufficiently protected, with the result that it may become diseased, and mce infection has taken place the damage is done, The fungicide should be applied with adequate pressure to mtirely cover the foliage and force the chemical well down into the heart f the plants, Spraying is a protective' not a curative practice. ferred to again in the New Testa- ment, and never seems to have been the genuine Christian qualities of th 4 poor, which led them to beg him to | !

Hospitals are be- coming more and more dware of their responsibility in this -vegard. They have developed while they have re- tained their first purpose of shelter, They have become centres of health teaching not only through their out- door clinics, but through their social services which, when advisable, follow their patients to their homes. They have become a part of the educational system of the country in. the educa- tion of at least two of the professions. The growing science of bio-chemistry which every year discloses new won- der -is turning its eyes toward -the hospitals. The hospitals are becom- ing, if they are nt already there, highly important medical laboratories. 'Transplanting 'Babies? Science has probed the immemorial mystery of birth, Recently by trans. planting the embryo produced by ar- tificial fertilization into a female rab- bit, Dr. Gregory Pincus, the renowned American biologist, 'created living rab- bits. His first step was. to secure the release of Hormone Prolan A from the pituitary gland of a female rabbit. This was achieved by stimulating el- ectrically a nerve 'centre in the crea. ture"s neck. He then extracted an egg cell and exposed it for a few min- nutes to a temperature of 113 degs. I. Thus fertilized without the use of a male element, the egg cell was trans. mitted to another female rahbit that afterwards brought it to birth, Fach of ihe rabbits born by this means was a female. It 1s possible that Dr. Pincus's discoveries will be ap plied to lessen the toll of human mo- a biologist states, "it should be prac- ticable for frail women, who appear unable to bear the strain of childbirth to have their children transplanted in the embryonic stage to healthy "host mothers." The transplanted child would retain all the inherited characteristics of its true parent's stock. : Of Course That Would Never Do CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Radcliffe College, noted educational institu- tion for women, announced recently it had changed its coat of arms be- cause an -expert had discovered the old one was appropriate for widows and spinsters only. Pierre de C. La Rose, expert in Heraldy, pointed out that the arms had been displayed on a diamond or lozenge, whereas the college as a, cor- pc-ation, should have used a shield. The coat of arms has been used since the college's incorporation in 1894. That King British Press Spreads Report Edward Will Marry Cavalcade, a British news maga- zine, prints on its front cover in the current issue a picture of Princess Alexandrine Louise, a niece of the King of Denmark, and first place in its columns is given to rumors that she will marry King Edward. Caval- cade's article follows: Shortly after the death of King George a story was passed, with all the air of authority which such stories invoke, from "social circle to social circle, that when King Chris- tion of Denmark visited' London for the Jubilee he completed arrange- ments for the marriage of his niece, Alexandrine Louise, to Edward, who was then Prince of Wales. of the-last wishes of the King was that the marriage go forward. With equal air of authority, the news has now been printed in almost every country. With all authority, Smith's Weekly. sensational Australian = mewspaper, printed the report of the "forthcom- ing marriage." ~ In a later issue it said: "Cabled information since fully confirms it . + the official announcement will come later."
