Light Airplane bd Safest Place In An Air Raid New York Building Authgrl. ties Say It's 'he Steel-Framed Skyscraper -- Prove It By Citing Madrid, Rotterdam { i: The safest place in an alr raid is within a steel-framed skyscraper, This statement and evidence to « back it comes from building auth. orities in New York Gity, It applies toa type of buildig common in the United States and Canadian citles, the '"arilculated," or steel cago structure, Two European examples are c¢lt- ed in News and Opinion, publica- tion of the Building Trades Em- ployers Association of the City ot New York. Both are of North Am. erican "pattern. __NOT BUILT ALL IN ONE In Madrid, the 20storey tele phone exchange, ot the Internation. - al Telegraph and Telephone Comp- any withstood constant heavy shel. ling and bombing for 18 months, It was hit many times by bombs and . large calibre shells and not even seriously damaged. In Rotterdam, damage to ordin- ary five-storey business bulldings was terrific, but singularly a 12- storey new steel frame apartment building escaped, Engineers say that the old type of building, which includes all Eur- ope's historic structures, is known as' the monolith, This means that the walls support the entirp weight of roof, floors and contents, It means, also, in terms of tle bombing, that a hit which damages a wall may collapse the whole structure. Unification Of Indies Unlikely Talk Revived as Duke of Windsor Appointed Governor." Speculation on possible unifica- tion of the British West Indigs has been aroused in Nassau, capital of the Bahamas, by appointment as governor cf the Duke of Windsor, but tho talk apparently arose (rom an érroncous belief _that his . ap. pointment was as "governor gener- al" -- a term applied to the King's representatives In dominions, This speculation has been 'the subject of dlscussion for many years in London. Reliable sources sald last week however that "the middle of a war is hardly the time for such a constitutional experi. ment." NOT "GOVERNOR-GENERAL" It was pointed out also that the Duke of Windsor's appointment as governor of the Bahamas simply e named him "governor and comman- der-in-chief", the usual form for a colonial administrator, and not ""governor-general" as apparently © is tho popular belief in Nassau.

Ps, 19:14, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Tithe -- Probably written early _ in David's lite, posalbly 1050 B.C. Place -- This psalm cannot be identified with any particular loca. tion, This psalm consists of two dis- tinct parts, in which are contrast. ed God's revelation of himself in nature, and his revelation of him- self in hic word. It speaks first of "his glory as seen in the heavens, and then of his glory as manifested in his law. WITNESS OF CREATED UNIVERSE Ot' the witness of the heavens five things are said: 1. the witness is specific -- the heavens do not tell of God's will, grace, mercy, or love; they declare Instead his wlis- dom, power, glory and goodness. 2, The witness is also incessant -- in the heavens, the firmament, the days, the nights. 3. The witness is inaudible -- the testimony breathed out and poured forth is inarticulate, 4, The witnczs-is universal ---it-is through all the earth, and to the end of the world. 5. The witness is glorious -- the sun is represonted as a bridegroom, full of joy; and as a runner full of strength. Psalm 19: 1. The heavens declare the glory of God; . And the firmament showeth his handiwork. 2. Day unto day uttereth speech, © And night unto night showeth knowledge. : 3. There Is no speech nor lang- uage; Thelr volce Is not heard, 4. Their line is gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them has Ife set a taber- nacle for the sun, .6. Which is as a bridegroom com- ing out of his chamber, And rejoiceth as a strong man to run his course, 6. His going forth Is from the ond of the heavens. And his circuit unto the ends of it; And there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. The psalmist knew nothing about solar spectra or stellar distances, but he heard a volce from out of the else waste heavens which had sounded to him as it It named God. GOD'S WORD WITNESSED The sinner now turns from God's revelati~n of himself in nature: to his revelation of himself in his written word. What the sun is In the world of nature, that the law is in the spiritual world: the one quickens and cherishes the animal lite -- nothing being hid from its heat; the other quickens and -cher- {shes the life, of the soul. 7. The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul: The testimony of Jehovah fs sure, making wise the simple. 8. The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart. The commandment of Jehovah Is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9. The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring forever: -------The ordinances of Jehovah-are ---true, and righteous altogether. Some notes of the preceding three verses: "Law tells of the divine instruction relative to character and conduct, "Testimony" tells of tho divine witness to what God fis, and should be. "Statute" tells of di- vino directions designed to secure obedience, or check disobedience. "Commandment" tells of the divige decrees, authoritative and impor- . fous. "Fear" tells of the settled habit of the soul which is informed by the Law. "Judgments" tell of the judicial decisions and sentences of Jehovah. 10. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold. Bible truth is enriching-to the soul in the highest degree, Sweeter also than honey and the droppings of the honeycomb, The allusion is to honey that drops from the comb, - which is therefore the purest. And moreover by them fs thy servant warned, Through God's word man's duty js made plain apd the conée- quences plain, In- keeping them. there is great reward. * A PRAYER Through the first eleven verses of this chapter, God has been §peak- ing to the psalmist; it Is perfectly #|° natural, then, that after God hds' thus graciously spoken to men, man should In return address God. The Scriptures are God's word to us: prayer Is our word to God, The psalmist's heart here .goés out in petition and thanksgiving to God. 12, Who can discern his errors? And clear thou me from hidden faults, The psalmlist frequently acknowled. ges his known sins to God, and is cleansed of them by God's grace; .but here he asks that he might also bo cleansed and cleared from the sing of which he Is not conscious. 13. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; FE Le EATS ATM OTN J Ah A hv » SATION La DEN When a new Company Donates Plane TTT Cub "65" training plane, the fastest of its type .yet | produced in Canada, was donated by the Ontario Paper Co., of Thorold, "~to the St Catharines Flying club, it boosted the ability of that club te train student pilots for the Royal Canadian Air Force.

C. TONER (No. 2) About 150 years ago the first ad settlement of this country began. Before that time the primeval forests were undisturbed, except by the wandering tribes of native Indians. Even to a modern observ- er the land would have seemed inexhaustibly rich in its natural resources. 'We know from early books and documents that game, furbearers, birds and fish swarm- ed in countless numbers, Yet, six generations only have looted and spoilt a heritage that should have been continually self-replenish- ing. - Uncontrolled Exploitation Let us look at the record! Sturgeon were native to all the Great Lakes apd to many of the inland waters. In the early days of the fisheries they were re- garded as a nuisance, the fisher- men had no market for them. Later, by 1870, they became sale- able aud in 1885, Lake Erie pro- duced 4,500,000 pounds of stur- geon for the markets, Here, as elsewhere, over-exploitation took place so that between the years 1930 and 1934 the average pro- duction for this lake was 15,000 pounds. There was a decrease in the catch of 99.2% in 45 years. Sturgeon are commercially ex- tinct and it will take many years to restore the fishery if it can be done at all. Salmon Spawned In. Lake Ont. Along the north shore of Lake Ontario are a number of small, rapid rivers. Ninety years ago the Atlantic salmon, at certain times of the year, ran into these crecks and spawned on the gravel bars. Farmers and townspeople caught them by the wagon load while they "were on the spawning grounds, Farms were paid for and men got rich from the salthon of i HAND-PICKED RADIO BRIGHT SPOTS Sunday --- International = Re- view by Prof. E.
