MOUNTAIN MUSIC ON THE HIGH SEAS To every stoker and mechanic in the Royal Canadian Navy a bit of relaxation on deck when tb weather is fine is a welcome diversion. Mechanic Armand Guay relaxes with a few strains of good old- time mountain music on his accordion. His comrades like it, too providing he doesn't relax too often. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON LESSON 33 Printed Text: Genei> 26: 18-31 GOLDEN TEXT 111,-,.,-. I are the peacemakers; for they iKall be called >on> of God." Mat- thew 5:9. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time, Approximately 1800 B.C. Place, Principally (Jerar and Beersheba, cities of Southern Palestine. Isaac the Well-Digger 18. "And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abra- ham his father; for the Philist- ines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them. 19. And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of ipringing water. 20. And the herdsmen of Gerar strove with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, 'The- water is ours': and he called the name of it Sitnah. 22. And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he Mid, for now Jehovah hath mads room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land." Isaac called the name of the first well Ksek, meaning contention, because of his experience with \he men of Gerar; when compelled to leave this well, he called the next one dug by the name Sitnah, meaning enmity, for the opposition of the Philistines was now becoming ac- tually posccution. He now re- moved much further away, to Ke- boboth, forty miles from (lerar, where he was left undisturbed by those who had HO sorely been har- assing him. Almost all who have preached from this particular por- tion of our lesson have empha- sized the truth that all of us havo wells in our lives, at one time or another, which, once flowing with abundant and refreshing water, have been choked by various ex- periences, by doubt, and the ne- glects of life. Covenant With li.i.i. 24. "And Jehovah appeared un- to him the same night, and snid. I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee and will bless thee anil multi- ply thy seed for my servant Ab- raham's sake. 25. And he build- 'I an altnr there and called upon the name of Jehovah, and pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants digged a well." Becr- slielw was a sacred place in the life of Isaac's family, and lim- it would seem, in God's plan for l\ia life, he truly belonged. Here <iod appeared to him with a prom- in of particular prociousnes*. Here for the first time, we find the now familiar title, "ih, (ioil of Abraham". Isaac at once i< -.-ponded to t.lii< Divine revelation. 'He builded an altar there, and called upon tin- name of the Lord, and pitched his tent there: ant) there Isaac's ser- vants digged a wel!.' Let IIH mark carefully Uirso four stagrs In the patriarch's re.siorcd lift-. First comes the altar with its thought of consecration, then prayer with its consciousness of need, then the tent with its wit- ness to liume, and then comes Un- well with its testimony to daily life and needs. The altar and the home sum up everything that is true in life. First the altar and then the home, not first the home .iii-l then the altar. (!nd must In' first in everything. Enemici Ai Frinndn 26. "Then AbimeU-ch went to liim from (ivrar, mid Ahuzzath hi* friend, and I'bicol the raptain f his host. 27. Anil Isnar said jnto them, Wherefore are ye come unto me, seeing ye hate me, and have sent me away from you? 28. And they said, We saw plainly that Jehovah was with thee: and we said, Let there now be an oath betwixt us, even be- twixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee, 29. that thou wilt do us no hurt, a& we have not touched thee, and as we have done unto thee noth- ing but good, an-d have sent thee away in peace: thou are now the blessed of Jehovah. 30. And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink. 31. And they rose up betimes in the morning and sware one to anoher: and Isaac sent them away, and they de- parted from him in peace." The first word of this paragraph is very significant, then. When Is- aac came to the place where God definitely wanted him to be, as soon as an altar had been set up, and the worship of God resumed, then another blessing came into hia life, namely, peace with those who formerly were his enemies. Not long before this, Ablmelech had told Isaac to get out of his sight; now the very same man comes to Isaac, acknowledging that God was with Isaac, and ask- ing that he would enter into a covenant with him and his people, to do them no hurt, an agreement upon which Isaac entered at once. Isaac won the friendship of his opponents by his patience, as the verses after the text tell. Their consciences and hearts were touched, and they 'saw plainly that the Lord was with him,' and sued him for alliance. It is better to turn enemies into friends than to beat them and have them as enemies still. But 'when a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at with him.' Nazis Transport Regiment By Air British sources said recently that a German light infantry reg- iment flown to North Africa from Crete had been put in the Egyp- tian line to reinforce Field Marsh- al Erwin Rommel's forces. There had been previous re- ports that the Axis, finding its trans-Mediterranean sea lanes under sharp British air and naval watch and its African supply ports pounded by the It.A.F., had re- sorted to air transport to get fresh manpower into the drive to- ward Alexandria and the Nile.

A special Scout unit of 100 boys chosen from different To- ronto Troops provided a messen- ger service throughout the recent convention of Rotary Interna- tional at Toronto. They worked from a headquarters set up in Union Station. * The Boy Scouts of much bomb- ed Bristol, England, sent a gift of money to the Scout war casu- alties of Malta. * * * In a first aid competition for the Boy Scouts of Pictou County, N.S., held at New Glasgow by Superintendent James White of the First Aid and Draeger Team of the Acadia Coal Company, the unusual score of 99 out of a pos- sible 300 points was made by the team representing the 1st Stellar- ton Scout Troop. * * Boy Scouts were widely used throughout the Dominion to col- lect sugar ration application cards from private homes. * * Boy Scout training was once again credited with saving life when Jack Picot 14, of Strathroy, Ont., during a hike with his brother and another younger boy, and when some miles from any help, fell on a piece of broken glass and severely cut his arm. Ivan Picot, 12, promptly impro- vised a tourniquet, which control- led the bleeding until the boys could reach the Strathroy Hospi- tal. Jack was a patient there for several days. * In less than a year the Scouts of Aurora, Ont., have raised over $300 by salvage work, and con- tributed this to various war funds, including $80 to the Can- adian Scouts' B.-P. Chins Up Fund for the Scout war suffer- ers of Britain. * "Anyone who has or can make the time available or can other- wise assist in the work of the Boy Scouts Association is not only making a worthwhile contribu- tion towards the winning of thte war, but possibly even more im- portant, towards the building up of the future manhood of this country." Col. R. G. Whitelaw, Director of Military Training. * A mobile war service tea can- teen was presented by the 23 Boy Scouts of the 1st Halesowen Scout Troop of Birmingham, Eng- land, to the Y.M.C.A. The can- teen was received on behalf of the Y. by Sir Alfred Pickford in a little ceremony at the Royal Mews, Buckingham Palace. Th funds for the purchase of the can- teen were raised in nine months by the boys, backed by a com- mittee of parents and other sup- porters. Why Bother? A 32-mile round trip for sugar? And how much home canning did they do last year? The problems were too muh for Myru Uiherd, 71. and her 82-year- old brother. "We have no car, no boss and buggy. My brother says: 'Dam- mit, I quit whiskey, I quit smok- ing, and I ran quit suRar'! "P.S. I couldn't answer all the silly questions about how much 1 canned last year. All I know Is that it's all 'et up'. So probably it's just as well not to register." Luftwaffe Dreads Rocket Apparatus One of the "surprise weapons" used by the Maritime Regiments at sea against attacking enemy aircraft is the rocket apparatus carried by defensively armed mer- chant ships. These rockets are one of the weapons most dreaded by the Luftwaffe. They carry up into the air long wires sup- ported by parachutes, so that they remain in position for an ap- preciable time, and the method of using them is to time and place their discharge so that the attack- ing bomber must either swerve away from his bombing position or become entangled with the wires and be destroyed by them. RADIO REPORTER DIALING WITH DAVE That screen door on Elm St. in Clifford Goldsmith's mythical Centerville is soon to start bang- ing again. In fact, this Thurs- day night at 8.30, "The Aldrich Family," refreshed after a five- weeks vacation, returns for an- other NBC-CBC season. Ezra Stone will continue as Henry Aldrich, the role he created four years ago in Goldsmith's Broad- way play, "What A Life!" Hank's patient father, Sam Aldrich, play- ed by House Jameson; and typical American boy's mother, Mrs. Alice Aldrich (Katherine Rant) ; sister Mary (Charita Bauer) and friend Homer (Jack Kelk) carry on as before. For two years, national popularity surveys have placed "The . Aldrich Family" among the top five of all radio shows on the air so here's for another year of fun and comedy with the Aid- riches starting Thursday, Aug- ust 13, 8.30 p.m. The American music world is still echoing the sensational ac- claim given the Western Hemi- sphere premiere of Dmitri Shoat- akovitchs Seventh Symphony on July. 19. The thunderous studio* ovation accorded Toscannini, who' conducted the NBC Symphony Or** chestra over the NBC network in, the American introduction tu the remarkable work, continued a" considerable time after the pro--* gram was off the air. Written*. under the fiery siege of Lenin- grad, where the composer inter-' mingled. active fire warden dutiei with his composing endeavors, th ' work, as predicted, was hailed by American listeners as an eloquent * indictment of A .vis aggression and tyranny. Doubtless this great \ work will soon be available on records, and will soon become part . and parcel of the continent'* great symphonic organizations Russia's music and composers urn * equally great and we will be hear- * ing much more of them both dur- ing the months to come. On last Wednesday's Bandwagon program, locally produced from CKOC each week (8.30 p.m.) an all-Russian program was presented, with the famous Don Cossacks Choir. Feodor Chaliapin and Irog Goria interpreting the music. Madeleine Carroll took tine out from honeymooning with Stirling Hayden to make two appearances on "Cavalcade of America", Aug. 3rd and 10th. Walter O'Keefe's "Star Spang- led Vaudeville" series for NBO is something of a radio rabbit'* foot. Both Walter and Raymond Page (the show's bandleader) have won additional network con- tracts since the show opened, and Johnny Burke, soldier-monologist of 1917 and Gracie Fields, "The Sweetheart of the Empire" both landed Broadway spots after ap- pearing on the program. Johnny and Gracie will open in a new . "Priorities" revue in the fall. * * Next week and the following week CKOC in Hamilton will an- nounce September on "CKOC a completely new and outstanding broadcast schedule, arranged for fall and winter listening.
