GOD IN THE MAKING OF A NATION (ncutcronomy 8: 11â€"20.) [GOLDEN TEXT:â€" Beware lest thou forjjet the Lord thy God, in not kpepinjr his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, v.hich 1 command thee this day. â€" Deuteronomy 8: 11. The LeK.son in its SettinR Placo:â€" .\11 the early chapters of Deuteronomy record discourses given by Moses on the east side of the Jor- dan River where the Israelites were encamped in what are known as the plains of Moab'(soe Deut. 1: 1.) Time:â€" B.C. 1450. The word "Deuteronomy" means tha "second law," and, in this book, as the title would indicate, there is a summinK up of all the laws and rcgulation.s which God had ^ven to Moses In the forty years of Israel's wandering in the wilderness. For a proper understanding of this lesson, one should read the first ten verses of the chapter, which are not assifrncd in the lesson itself. Four great benefits are, in these opening verses, =aid to have come to Israel from the hands of their gracious * Goil; by him they were guided for , forty years in the wilderness; in all ^of their suffering and hardships, God had a gracious purpose toward them * â€" that they might come to know him < better; the Lord had preserved them .during all their forty years cf wan- dering; and Jehovah their God was -now to bring them into "a good Jand" where water abounded, where cereals and fruit could be grown in ebundance, and in whose hills valu- able metals would be found. This fteautiful description of God's graci- ousncss to L«rael concludes with this iidmonition: ".-^nd thou shalt eat and be full, and thou shalt bless Jehovah thy God, for the good land which he Ijath given thee." « Needed a Warning "Beware lest thou forg.'t Jeho- i^h thy f^od, in not keeping his com- mandments, and h's ordinances, and his statutes, which 1 command thee thi:' day." (See also Deut. 4: 9, 23, 21; C: 12.) â€"That Israel greatly reede<l such war.ing as this, her later history sadly proved. In the early days of the judges, we read thlit "the children of Israel did that ^^^lich was evil in the sight of Jeho- v&h and forgot Jehovah their God." (fudges 3: 7). Notice carefully how Moses particularizes this sin of Israel. She revealed she was forget- ting God by not keeping God's com- mandments. One cannot forget what ene docs not know. To be ignorant pt God is a tragedy, but to forget God is a double sin. Forgettin.: God., i.e., le:iving (iud out of cur life, not reckoning with him, or considering his will in our plans and purposes, and pleasures, is expressed in the Now Testament by the significant word "ungodly." "Lest, when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses and dwelt therein; and when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied; then thy heart bo lifted up, and thou forget Jehovah thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage." â€" Moses exposes, in these three years, the deepest, most frequent cause, for men's foi-getting God who, them- selves, have been the recipients of his gifts of love. That condition which is most conducive to making the thought of God vague in the mind, and obedience to God something al- most never considered, in other words, living day by day without God, is what wo might sum up in one phrase as a gratification of all one's fundamental material desires, i.e., abundance of food, delight- ful homes, comparative security from disaster, sufficient wealth to relieve one of worry, a good standing in the community, a lovely family, a large library, leisure and means for sport, an automobile, two or three club memberships, the opportunity for travel, the ability to perform v/hat- ever task one earnestly undertakes, etc. When a man has these things, he seems to possess all that he needs. That which would drive a man to God is, most of all, need, and the most powerful needs, though a sad commentary on human nature, are those that have to do with our material well-being. By nature a man will hasten to God if he is in the midst of groat trouble, or fears a tragedy, or a loved one is desperately ill. What Moses wants the Israelites to know is that, in a time when they do not have much to ask for, they should, nevertheless, seek fellowship with God, if not in their petition, then in their thanksgiving and love for him. Why Israel Should Kemembir "Who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents and scorpions, and thirsty ground where was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint; Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not." â€" The warning against forgetting God is both pre- ceded and followed by a setting forth of powerful reasons why the Israel- ites should forever remember God, proving clearly that they had no ex- cuse whatever for forgetting him. In these two verses. God i.s once again set forth as the one who had graci- Bf What a Beautiful Bible! only "How Cm You Sell It For $*j QC^' New Oxford Reference.

"That he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end: .\nd lest thou say in thy heart. My power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this wealth. But thou shalt remem- ber Jehovah thy God, for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth; that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as at this day" â€" A deep conviction of this fact would turn human history into a sacrament. Receive into the mind the full impression of this doc- trine, and you will find yourself working side by^ side with God, in the field, the warehouse, the bank, the shop, the office, the pulpit. When a young man receives the first pay- ment of his industry, he is to re- member that the Lord his God gave him power to get wealth. Thus the getting of money becomes a sacred act. Money is a mighty power; wealth occupies a proud position in all the parliament of civilization. Trade thus becomes a means of grace and commerce an ally of re- ligion. In one word, the true appre- ciation of this doctrine would restore every act of life to its direct and vital relation to the living God. Our Dependent Strength "And it shall be, if thou shalt for- get Jehovah thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and wor- ship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish." â€" Men mu.st have a god or gods to wor- ship. If they do not have the true God, they will have false gods. If men allow themselves to forget what the true God has done for them, they will soon come to tho place where they will begin to doubt if this God whom they have never seen can do anything for them, and they will turn to visible, but dead deities, made of wood, stone, gold, and silver. "As the nations that Jehovah maketh to perish before you, so sliall ye perish; becau.se ye would not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah, your God." â€" For God's gracious p.romise to Israel if she would obey him, see Deut. 7: 12â€" IC. Isr.iel's security demanded upon her relation- ship to God. We may not believe it, but the secu>rit\-, welfare, and the strength of our nation are ecjUally de- pendent upon our obedience to the commaiidmcnls of the Lord. God's laws are i-casonable, always for the welfare of men, and in obedience to them, men keep their slrcnuth and prolong their life. Forgetting God. who i.s our strength, is synonymous wiih wor- shipping the idols of roan's creiition, which always have and alw.-iys will weaken men moiaily, mentally, and physically. To furget Goil is lu curse one's self. If Canada is de- termined to contiiuio more and more- to forget God. and give herself to the things of tlii.s wi'i-id, it would I)e a lea! blessing to our nation, if wc should be brought, by the hand of God, into times of great .suffering and distress, as well as great (hwiger, if it only made us realize our utter imii';;.jncy. the absolute insufficiency of man. as man, to live without God, and b;;ig us, as a nation, on our kncer., to the throne of grace, con- fesjfing oiir cin:;, imploring the for- giveness of Gcd, and acknowledging that we are, at ka.'.t, willing to live r;ght([)i:sly and soberly in this pres- ent life, walking worthy of his name, ill the li^ht nt his countenance. How United Kingdom Could Be Fed In War Seienti- ts meeting at the British .â- Viociation for the .Advancement of bcicnc;', in Nottinghain, Kng., discus- !cd llic problem of how to feed Great BrUain's population in event of a !>( ifi -I blockade in time of war. Dr. Dudley S'.amp, Professor of D-3 Ask IVIore of Better- Quality Economics at London University, said: "Britain produces less than 40 per cent of her essential fond re- quirements." Suggestions on how to increase, the food output included a mention of synthetic products. Professor J. H. Jones of Leeds University urged consideration of the nation's defense in allocating in- dustries. He said control of the land should rest in the hands of the Gov- ernment and key industries should be moved from points vulnerable to tho enemy o.Ti'iisives. Professor Jones discussed a plan under which the Government would dict:>.t,; what crops sl'.ould be grown and appoint scientists to plan produc- tion of supplementary supplies. Reporting on availai)ie land, Sir Daniel Hall asserlcci "it is easy to cnvis:."-j planning land in Great Brilaiii if it could be managed by a biisii.ess corporation with capi'al ample to take a long view about de- velopments." Under the Canada United-States Trade .Agreement, which came into eii'ect on January 1, 1!)3(;, Canada with -Me.xico was granted a quota of l.'iS.TDO head of cattle of 700 lb. weight or more each in any one year at 2 cents per pound duty instead of the usual three cents per pound.

It was liad enough at the railroad station, where scr:!ecliins women biolve through police lines and shoved caeli other around in an effort to try and shako his hand. But that was noiliing to what occurred oil tho Her- eiif-'aria just as the ship was about to sail v.ith him on board. Girls in their Iceus simply Hwarnieil all over tho l)(iat, climbing over railings, breaking through guard ropes, hiding them- selves under life boats. Sailing was delayed lialf an hour because a steward found two young- sK^rs liiding under tlie bod in Taylor's stateroom, and it was tliouglit wise to search the rest of the ship. Taylor was wearing a three-year old battered brown felt hat. a brown sport.s coat, gray slacks and shirt, and sttirdy brown sports shoes and looked as wliolesdiiic and modest ;ik a power- ful farm hand. nciore 'Vogues of l!t:'.S" opened in New York, the professional dress mo- dids association gave a party for .loan Bennett, and gave her a plaiiue to com- memorate tho occa- sion.
