RS % A QUEER PARADOX British sclentists, says the Chris- 'tlan- Sclence Monitor, on seeing a stuffed specimen for the first time, thought that the taxidermist had tried to play a joke on them with cleverly assembled parts from sev- eral different creatures, Later, when oonfronted with .a living specimen from fts Australian haunts, the named it Ornithorhynchus paradoxus, which is Greek for "bird-billed par adox." It Is known also as the duck. 'hill; (platypus, or Ornithorhyuchus anatinus, and lives In' ponds and quiet streams. The female duckbill 1ays her eggs in .a nest which she ;makes .in a -don in the bank of the stream, The eggs are commonly two in num. ber,..and ; after they are hatched, thammotber duckbill feeds her young | on milk which she proyides.

Luke 2: 62, THE LESSON IN IT8 SETTING Time,~Our Lord was born prob ably in the winter of 4 to 6 B.C; /the visit to the temple at Jerusalem when Jesus was twelve years old took place in April, AD, 8,, Place.--The events recorded in verses 1 to 20 took place In Beth. lehem; those recorded in vorses 22 to 38 took place in Jerusalem, as did also the events recorded In verses 41 to 50; the lite of Christ at Nazareth is referred to in vers. es 39, 40, 51, 62, Nazareth, a town in Galilee, the 'home of Joseph and Mary for about thirty years became the place where Jesus spent practically all of his lite up to the time of his baptism, and thus gave him the frequently used title "Jesus of Naz- areth." Luke 2: 4. And the child grew, and waxed strong, filled with wis- upon him, Visit to the Temple 41, And his parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover. 42. And when he was twelve years old, they went up after the cugtom of the feast. The law of Moses commanded all male Jews to attend at Jerusalem at cost, and tabernacles; but this cus- tom had long fallen into abeyance, and it was a mark of devout living to go up once a year, The narrative brings out the piety of Joseph and Mary, On a son's thirteenth birth. day the fatlier brought the boy 'to the synagogue on the "Sabbath-ot Phylacteries" and presented him with phylacteries, which the son thenceforth wore at the recital of his daily prayer. The boy then bo- came a visible member of the Jow- ish Church, and was called "a son of the law." Jesus had formerly seen his parents go yearly to Jer- usalem, leaving hin at home; now he went up wi ti Td the first time, It was his first communion season. We know that our Lord In his boyhood had never attended the schools of the rabbis (Mark 6: 2; John 6: 42) and therefore his later teaching was absolutely original. ~ We know that he had learned to write (John 8: 6). We know that he was acquainted not only with Aramaic, but with Hebrew, Greek, and perhaps Latin; and that he had been deeply impressed by the lessons of nature. 43, And when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, tho boy Jesus tarrled behind In Jérusalem; and his parents knew it not; 44, but suppose him to be fn the company, they went a day's journey; and they sought for him among their kinsfolk and acquain- tance: 46. and when they found him not, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking for him, 46. And it camo to pass, after three days they found him In the temple, Sitting in the midst of the teachers, bath hearing them, and asking them questions: 47. and all that heard him were am- azed at his understanding. and his answers, These were ordinary rab- 'bls ready to teach at any time. They. sat cross-legged on the floor like their pupils. The teaching took place In one of the many temple halls open to all and used for this purpose. It is the worst mistake ot all to entitle the scene "Jesus Teaching in the Temple." Luke says not one word. about his teach- ing. He listened, and asked respect- ful. questions, Jesus here is a well. trained boy, who knows his placo 'rabbis. But even so, all_who wero listening. were.in amazement again and again at the understanding with which his mind grasped thelr combined thoughts, and-with which he replied to the questions address- ed to him, revealing his inner grasp of 'the truth. +48, And when they saw him, they were astonished; and his mother sald unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy wehaiies. land 'Lusought stheo sorrow: g. 49, And he, sald unto them, How 1s {t that ye sow ime? knew yet not that I must be in my Fath. -er's house? 50.

And he went down with them, .and came to Nazareth; and he was | subject unto them; and bis mother , kept all these sayings in her. heart. From this moment: Jesus possesses within him this ideal of life entire ly devoted to the kingdom of God. Now for the next eighteen years he applied himselt in silence to the Nazareth, whero hé was called "the carpentor." §2, And Jesus advanc- ed In wisdom and stature and in favor with God and men. dom: and the grace of God was the three feasts of passover, pente. .

Photo, Farm Notes Bacon for Britain Grown at a Profit Only healthy, vigorous litters grow into prime bacon, the kind that Britain expects of Canada and proves most profitable to the producer. The "runt" seldom re- pays the cost of raising it and never becomes a "select". Sym, ptoms of young pigs are hairlessness, rick- ets and anaemia. Prevention starts with the brood sow whose ration throughout the year should con- tain a well balanced mineral sup- plement providing calcium and phosphorus against rickets and nutritional disorders, iron against anaemia and iodine against hair- lessness. To withhold the mineral supplement until the sow farrows is folly. These minerals are not diseases common to, transmitted in the milk to any extent but are to the embryonic young. A suitable mineral supplement in the ration of the growing bacon hog will enable the animal to make better use of cheap home- grown feeds consisting largely of cereals with a source of protein added. A feeder who mixes his rations with brains! said he could make a profit with hogs at five cents a pound. Super-Suspicious A detachment of Royal Can- adian Engineers making a sur- vey in the Collingwood dis- trict certainly had its troubles. Suspicious citizens, it appears, saw the party at work and <ele- phoned the police asking that they be investigated. "Even our uniforms didn't keep us from suspicion," Sgt.- Major W. Demary said. RADIO REPORTER By DAVE ROBBINS 135.YEAR-OLD PRAYER The other midnight we were turning the dial when we heard a voice praying, speaking words that seemed particularly appropriate at this time, and we listened -- then we were surprised to hear that the prayer for the British fleet and for all Europe had been written by a great English leader one hundred and thirty-five years ago. These are the words we heard-- May the great God whom I wor- ship grant to my country, and for the benefit of Europe In general, a great and glorious victory: and may no misconduct In anyone tar- nish it; and may humanity after victory bo the predominant feature in the British fleet! For mysell individually, I commit my life to Him that made me; and may His" blessing allght on my endeavours for serving my country falthfully. To Him I resign myselt and the just cause which is entrusted to me to defend, Amen, Amen, Amen, This simple prayer for Admiral Lord Nelson was written by him in his dlary on the eve of the battle of Trafalgar, October 21st, 1805, and because of its fitting thought for these dark days CKOC closes its day each midnight with Nelson's prayer.

I Safety Pointers For Pedestrians Ten Rules Are Lald Down Far Guidance, By Industrial Accident Protection Associa. tion An illustrated poster issued by the Industrial Accident Preven- tion Associations outlines a "de- calogue of safety" designed es- pecially for pedestrians. Here are the ten points it s tH CROSS ONLY . AT SIDE. WALKS -- The record in many cities indicates that it is five times more dangerous to cross in the middle of the block than at the corner. WAIT ON THE SIDEWALK--- Impeding the visibility and pro- gress of motor vehicles and risk- ing injury to yourself by stand- ing in the -street while waiting for an opportunity to cross is foolhardy. CROSS ON THE PROPER SIGNAL -- Traffic lights are for all traffic pedestrians as well as motorists. Don't expect the me- torist to obey them if you aren't willing to do so. BE SURE THE WAY IS cL EAR -- Wait until' a closely approaching car has passed, or until the driver has given you the -right of way. Never step between two cars in close-parked traffic. BE DOUBLY ALERT DUR. ING THE FIRST FEW STEPS-- Seventy-five percent. fo pedes- trians in accidents are hit before reaching the middle of the road- way with absent-mindedness the greatest single cause. CROSS WITHIN THE CROSS. WALK -- Seconds and steps saved by skirting the cross-walk or crossing diagonally are not worth the chances you take with your life. WALK, DON'T RUN -- Need- less hurry afoot is often as dan- gerous as needless speed in a car. Don't start across unless you are sure you can make it safely at a walk. ON RURAL ROADS, WALK FACING TRAFFIC -- This en- ables you to watch oncoming traffic and to step off the pave- ment and' out of the way in an emergency. Two pedestrians are killed walking with traffic for every one killed walking against it. . AFTER DARK, WEAR SOME- THING WHITE -- You protect yourself by making certain you will be seen, especially when walking along rural highways at night. Wear a white shirt, shoes or dress -- or carry a light, an open handkerchief, or a news- paper. LOOK - TWICE BEFORE CROSSING -- And you'll prob. ably live twice as long. Single Ounce Can Boil 1,000 Tons Uranium is an element one million times deadlier than dyna- mite. Scientists tell us that the energy contained in one ounce will boil a thousand tons of water, and they are trying to liberate the energy stored in uranium so that we may have a cheaper form of power than ever before. But pure uranium is so deadly that it has caused the decomposition of nitrogen oxide when exposed to it at a considerable distance. The disintegraving effect upon human tissue is even greater, so all ex- periments must be conducted with great caution and for safety minute quantities of diluted urs anium are used. x : THIS CURIOUS WORLD By William Ferguson SUGAR. 1S ONE OF THE FEW suBssTANCES THAT MODERN SCIENCE HAS FROGS, OSPREYS SOMETIMES CARRY OFF ARTICLES OF CLOTHING THAT HAVE BEEN LEFT UNGUARDED 'ay THE | DWNERS OF SOUTH AMERICA, LIVES ON 8/ROS, AND WILL.
