We do well to celebrate on July 1, the birthday of 'our own Dominion, to ex- perience at Christmas the noble con- tagion of giving, to encourage the serious thoughts and hopes of New Year's Day, to commemorate the birth of Victoria the Good, but the signifi- cance of Thanksgiving Day makes it our most sublime national act, It is our'noblest gesture--a confes- sion of the supremacy of God, a ings; a pledge of loyalty to divine principles which insure the happiness and prosperity of men and nations, Why is it that nearly all the peoples of the earth have in their development the first ahd most important words to be taught to every child are "Thank you"?

And all of this vast undertaking inspired by the only power which can bring victory-- an obedient faith in God. Count over your personal blessings, make much of each one; perhaps they are undervalued now. Give thanks for every blessing with your whole heart; only so can you enter into the heart of blessing and truly appreciate it. you are not accustomed to give thanks at table try to begin now. Say, "Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Amen!" Let the children whom you teach to say "Thank you" hear you say it to God. Example is better than precept. On this Thanksgiving Day count the 'blessings, national and personal; thank God for them with intelligence 'and sincerity; add an "Amen!" with all your heart in it.

He predicts the birth of a wonderful child who shall be his peo- Bes deliverer. He recalls that the rst shock of Assyrian invasion, wag felt by the northern provinces of Zebulun and Naphtali (see 2 Kings 15: 29), and expects that the light of a great deliverance will come to them. It is, of course, evident that Isaiah was speaking of deliverance from As- syrian armies, and that the salvation which Jesus set Himself to accomplish was of a quite different character, But it is also true that the hope of a great Saviour, which he was the first to declare, was cherished through all the cehtunies that followed, until Jesus came, laid hold upon it, and gave it a new meaning and a new direction. It is the same hope, purified and enlarg- ed, to which He 1s about to give a larger fulfilment. The writer of the Gospel regards it as significant "that this new light of hope in the teaching and Jreaching of Jesus should now be shining in this very land of Zebulun and Naphtali, the land of Galilee. 18. alking by the Sea of Galilee Jesus was a lover of the mountains and the sea. He knew their quiel places, their companionship, their rest. fulness. He knew also the sudden storms which swept down from the hills and threw the level lake into a sea of tossing waves. He knew: the pleasant pasture , and the plow- ed flelds where the farmer sowed. his seed and the harvest ripened; and the laden vineyards, and the fishing boats whose white sails gleamed in the morning sunlight. Best of all He knew and loved the people, and He found Hits first disciples amongst the hardy shermen, i Simon and Andrew. Simon is bet- ter known to us as Peter, a Greek name meaning "a rock," the Aramaic valent of which was Cephas mon and Andrew, as also James snd John, had been disciples of John. The story of their first meeting and earlier associations with Jesus is told in John 1-8. By those earlier associations they were prepared for the call which now came to them to leave all. and follow Jesus, ¥ 28-25. In All Galilee. Mark tells. (1: 82-29) of a Sabbath evening in Cdper- naum, when the multitudes gathered about the door of the house where Jesus was, bringing their sick ones tc Him for healing. There He minister. ed to them until the darkness com: led them to return to their homes arly on the following morning He sought a quiet place, remote from the town, where He might prdy alone But again the multitudes were abrdad seeking Him. Then, to His disciples who came looking for Him, He said, "Let us go elsewhere into the nexi towns, that I may preach there also; for to this end came I forth." It was not enough to awaken this soul hunger in and to satisfy the need of one place. He felt that He mustxgo abroad and carry the message every- where, It may be that already Je shadow of the cross was upon His path and that He knew His time was short. Jesus sent for His disaiples, and so for all His followers in every age, the example of dilligent, ceage- less, and unwearying effort to spread abroad the Gospel. Three times, dur- ing His short ministry, He went about making a tour of the cities and towns of Galilee, preaching; teaching and healing. Wherever He went the people fol- lowed. And they came, attracted by His name, from more distant Places, from Syria, and from east Jordan land, and from the Greek cities to the north-east. Compare Luke 6:17, where there is mention also of those who came from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, and from all Judea ahd Jerusalem. The multitudes were but the forerunners of that vast host of every land and nation which, down through the ages since, has been com-, ng, for body and soul. to Jesus, and still is coming, for hp and healt of nf ss Pe g 8 2 J mellow fruit.' - Close 8 sun; u on spiring with him how to load and _ With fruit the vines that round the RE? ess! * <i 93 G bosom-friend of the maturing Fe no
