Home Education The €orner-stone Of Our Educational : System Mrs, W. N. Ross, school science convenor of the St. Fhomas, Ont, Home' and School Council in a re- "cent address on "New Course of 'Study;' said: that "it 'was through v pressure of public opinion that the ' new course was adopted. "Home is + the eorner stone of our educational system," sald the speak.r, "where first and foremost the child must bo taught to live with, not only 'Himself but his fellows, He must work out his own aims and stand- ards," she sald. Though health is stressed In the new: curriculum, it should be remembe. d that it is not what a child knows about his health, it is what he does about it that is important, Mental health is allied to happiness, and activity with a reasonable "amount of suc- cess Is necessary to a child," Mrs. Ross thought. Work Out Own Standards .As for t° parents, Mrs. Ross al- vised he should budget 's energy and completely drop the habit of allowing the child to affect fs nerves, A God-given <ift, and one that may mean so much to a child is a saving sense of humor In a parent. ' Trade Balance £ Highest Ever Under U. S.

Sunday School Lesson . .. 4 LESSON 111 * THE TEMPTATION OF JESUS Matthew 4 nt Printed Text, Matt. 4:1.11, " Golden Text--For we have . . .. one that hath. been in all points tempted like as we are, yét with. out sin, Heb, 4:15, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time--The spring of A.D. 27. Place.--A wilderness, though its definite location is nct known, The greatest temptation in Our Lord's life occurred immediately after the glorious, exhilirating ex- perience of the baptism, the de- scent of the Holy Spirit, and the voice from heaven declaring Christ to be God's beloved Son. After spiritual excitement comes the re- action. 1. Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. Why was Jesus tempted? There are sev- ral reasons: it gave proof of his true humanity; it was part of his example to us; it formed part of his personal discipline and of his preparation to be a sympathetic, intercessor. Of the deyil. "Satan means simply, "adversary." 2, And when he had fasted for- - ty days and forty nights, he after- wards hugered. The Threefold Attack 3. And the tempter came and said unto him, If thou are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread. - The first object of the enemy was to destroy the Lord's faith. Satan cunningly hinted at the obvious inconsistency of a man in as deplorable a con- dition as Christ was, claiming to" be the Son of God. os 4. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. In sum, Christ meant this: Far be it from/me to prescribe to God the mode' in which he-shnll provide me substance. Rather will I-trust his - omnipotent . creative power, which- can find mdans to satisfy my hunger; even 'the desert, though it may not be with man's food. Christ had no wish"to free himself from the schse of hu- man weakness and dependence. The Easy Way 5. Then the devil taketh him into the holy city; and he set him on the pinnacle of the temple. 6. And saith unto him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down; for it-is written, He shall give his angels charge concérning thee: and, on their hands they shall bear thee up, lest haply thou dash thy fcot against a stone. Satan hére quotes Psalm 91:11, 12. The devil once more insinuates the doubt about Christ's being 'the Son of God. If Christ will not prove the Messiahship by work- ing a miracle to save himself from 'being dashed to pieces? .It is per- haps a suggestion that Christ should take an easy road to suc- cess. Such a prodigious sign or miracle would convince both the p:iests and the people that he was the Messiah, 7. Jesus said unto him, Again it is written, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God. 'Christ does not deny the correctness of the Satanic quotation but insists that half-truths often form the worst heresies. 8. Again, the devil taketh him unto an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms "of tHe world, and the glory of them; 9. and he. said "unto him, all these will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. All these -things- Satan tempted him with Christ. would some day have, and more, by his precious death; why not take them now and thereby escape all the suffer- ing and agony and shame that resurrection? * The Rejection 0. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it'is written, Thou 'shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only. shalt thou serve." Here .for the first time Christ speaks 3 power, and by the victory he has won this day is able, actually to. were 'betweqn' this hour and the in his own _ command this evil creature to de- part from him. Christ today re- tains that power, and "can com- mand Satan to depart from us when we ery to him for deliver. nke. '5:ts 11.

Ridicule Becomes Dangerous In the Hands of the User-- Men Tire Quickly Of Girl Who Is Always '"'Razzing" A lool girls today are being pretty careless with a dangerous weapon -- ridicule -- and some of them are going to get huri. They use it on each other -- and that isn't so dangerous -- but some- of them urn it onto men, and then wonder why they don't hold the men they moet and attract. Going To Get Hurt It's modern -- this idea of pok- Ing fun gt the person you want to impress. And used beeasionally and smartly, it adds spice to a girl's. personality. It lifts her out of that namby pamby "such-a-nice-girl" class. y : But there are times when it is human to resent razzing, Any girl who wants to get a man in love with her or keep him that way ought to realize those times. One time, when this line is no- go, is when a- man wanls sympa- thy.~ i When He Wants Sympathy Another time fs when a man is on the subject of his ambitions and plans for the future. He wants un- "understanding" then, and he will not take anything else and like it. Ridicule is a dangerous indul- gence for 3 woman.

A. Fagan, at a meeting in Na- tal to consider giving his people "rights and privileges to make them a strong nation," reports the S.A. Press Association. Mshiyeni said that in certain cases their traditions had been de- spoiled. That they did not want. Their wives were running away from them and their girls were being ruined in front of their eyes and they could do nothing. Not Enough Rights They felt Zulus were becoming reduced and in time the Zulu would become extinct. He desired the Zulu nation to become a strong people, but he felt they had not the necessary rights and privileg- es. _ He said the authorities had tak- en over the brewing and selling of beer and the natives were not al- lowed to make beer in private houses. In the towns they drank Euro- pean liquor which went to their heads. He asked whether a bel- ter system could be devised.
