. i. V LESSON VIII Beverage Alcohol and The Home (A Social Aspect of the Liquor Problem) Jeremiah 35:5-10; Ephesians 5:15- 21; 6:1-4 Golden Text â€" "Drink no wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy tone with thee." Lev. 10:9. The Lesson In Its Setting Time â€" The prophecy of Jere- miali found in chapter thirty-five cannot be located with great exact- ness during tha years when he pro- phesied, but may be put, with a fair degree of certainty, about the year 60-1 B.C. Paul wrote the epis- tle to the Ephesians in A.D. 61. The Rechabltes were a nomad tritie, not of Jewish, but of Keniie race, 1 Chron. 3:33, and connected with the Araalekties, Num. 24: 21. 6. And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups; and I said unto them. Drink ye wine. 6. But ,^hey said. We will drink no wine; ^er Jonadab the son of Rechab, our ;?^alher, commanded us, saying. Ye ""-shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons, forever: 7. neither shall ye build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have any; but ail your days ye shall dwell in tents; that ye may live many days in the land wherein ye sojourn. 8. And we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daugh- ters; 9. nor to build houses for us to dwell in; neither have we vine- yard, nor field, nor seed: 10. but ve have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father command- ed us. Acting under the command of God, Jeremiah called the repres- entative men of the Rechabltee Into the house of Jehovah, and offered them wine. It was done in \order to give them the opportunity to refuse, and thus prepare the way for the message that men are more loyal to the commandments of men than they are to the com- mandments of God. Through Evil Days 15. Look therefore. If believers are bound to dispel the darkness from the hearts and lives of others how careful they should be not to be dark themselves, but to walk as wise men. Carefully how ye walk. Not as unwise, but as wise. Wise men are those who not only know the truth, but live according to the truth. Paul is writing to Christ- ians who have the truth, spiritual truth, moral truth, all centered In Christ, and because of which they know what is right and what Is wrong, as we do. 16. Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. When days are evil. Christians themselves are in great danger of being allured into evil, and will be delivered from such temptations only as they keep near the Lord Jesus Christ, ever alert to witness for him, and trans- acting, with consuming earnestness the business of the King whom they adore. 17. Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18. And be not drunken with the wine, wherein is riot, but be tilled with the Spirit. We are accustomed to oppose ex- cessive drinking by the claims of abstinence; but here the alterna- tive counsel is the recption of the Holy Ghost. The fundamental need of life is not a sensation, but an inspiration. It is folly to seek to spur the essential powers Of life by a stimulus of the flesh. Filled With Holy Spirit it:- Speaking one to^-^other in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord. . 20. Giving thaiiks for all things is the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father. The apostles preached in the name of the Lord Jesus: they wrought miracles in his n^me; believers are commanded to pray in his name; and here we are told to give thanks In his name. 21. Subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ. "The primary point in the spiritual etb- Ici of the gospel is humility. Self Is dethroned as against God, and consequently ag against men. An ideal Christian home, Eph. S:l-4. 1. Children, obey your par- ents in the Lord; for this is right. 2. Honour thy father and mother, (which is the first commandment with promise), 3. that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. 4. And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath. A parent Governor Leverett Saltonstall, of Massachusetts, can't make up bis mind. A woman in Santiago, Chile, wrate him: "I saw your picture in a newspaper. You look like my father who died years ago. As I have no picture of him, will you please send rac one of your«."

But nurt- ure them. In the chastening. The word here translated "chastening" refers to the whole training and education of children. And admoni- tion of the Lord. This last word means generally training by word, and In actual use, mostly, by word of reproof, remonstrance, or blame. Here is a brief but priceless word for the parent's heart. It lays a fresh stress upon his responsibilit- ies in the guidance and the fore- warning of his child; but that the spirit of self must be banished from the work, if it is to be done indeed.

Nelson & Sons $2.50). Pub- lished last year, It won Immediate ificognition and a second printing is now selling in Bnglaad whsre three times more copies have been sold than were â- old in Canada. A first novel begun when the iutbor was 21 and finished when f he was 23, Swiss Sonata is a book of e.xcoptional maturity and depth. In England critics hailed it in most laudatory terms. The story is Blight and not overburdened wi*h plot. What gives it impact and in- terest is sharp insight into char- acter and broad understanding of humanity. Placed in a girls' school overlooking Lake Geneva, it lells what happens during three eventful days in this liny, remote commun- ity where the conflicts which mar Europe and the outer world are re- flected among girls at school. A book for thoughtful people. It Is not one to be read hastily and set aside. Nor is the reader likely to forget it. It has faults, but the most critical reader will agree, from llie first page on, that Miss Graham is a born story teller with exceptional ability for making real the trivia which afflict the mind of youth, and for sustaining suspense In schoolgirl and schoolmistress conflicts. Rich in material (a more seasoned novelist would have writ- ten three novels, two or more short stories and perhaps a play with the same material) its greatest merit is the conversation. Rich, brilliant- ly entertaining, the conversatlnn of some of the characters has a hard, bright, underlying quality of gaiety which perhaps not everyone fully appreciates. Vicky Morrison is a chai-acter you could wish to know, and that wish is a tribute to the success of ^ the author's efforts. The breadth of Vicky's humanity, as portrayed here, shows that Miss Graham has what Arnold Bennett described as the essential qualifications of the great novelist, "A Christlike and all-embracing compassion." o NTARIO UTDOORS By VIC BAKER ONTARIO SCORES AGAIN ! Competitive rifle shooting is without doubt one of the most popular sports enjoyed by Ontario sportsmen, both young and old. Al- most every village, town and city in the province boasts its group of marksmen who are continually participating in one contest or an- other. But it's when national shooting competitions are held tliat proof presents itself of how this sport is enjoyed and practiced by the average Ontario citizen. The most recent national shoot- ing tournament to furnish such proof is the recently completed first round of the 1U39 Dominion Marksmen Junior Small Bore Rifle League annual competition. Of the 109 five-man teams, representing 845 shooters from all over Can- ada, competing in the competition, 81 teams or 405 shooters were Ontario marksmen representing all sections of the province. Think of it, almost half the entries in this nation-wide shooting tourna- ment were On'.ario shooters! BrockviUe Best Shooters ' And there are many expert marksmen axong these, as shown in the final scores posted. Sharp- shooters of the No. 1 rifle team of BrockviUe Collegiate Institute and Vocational School posted second high score among the 169 entries to fall slightly behind the high scorers, the crack No. 1 Team of the Saint John, N.B., Vocational School. The Ontario team scored 1485 out of 1500 points while the Maritimers posted a score of 1491 out of 1500. The BrockviUe shooters also be- came the new holders of the On- tario provincial shooting cham- pionship when la.«!t year's final- ists, the Peterboro Collegiate and Vocational School, failed to com- pete. The BrockviUe boys had to and down Avenue of Remem- brance where trees will be plant- ed as their majesties pass.
