GOLDEN TEXT--Every good gift and every. perfect gift is from above, coming down from the 'Father, James 1: 17. The Lesson In Its Setting Place--The wildernes of Sin was located on the eastern side of the Red Sea on the way to Mount Sinai. Rephidim was probably located on the long Wady Ferian im the peninsula of Sinai. : Time--B.C. 1498, "And Jehovah spake unto; Moses, saying, I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israei: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah your God."--It is quite significant that whenever God works a miracle among his own people or before the nations of the earth, he does it that they might know him. This is a phrase which oc- curs especially throughout the hook of Ezekiel. It is quite similar to the one used of our Lord in the perform- ing of some of 'the miracles .nention- ed in the New Testament--he there | "manifested forth his glory." "And it came to pass at even, that ; "the quails came 'up, and covered the 2 / camp; and in the morning the - dew lay round about the camp." -- this is 'the only place in the entire book of Exodus where the word "quails" appears. (See also Num. 11; 81, 82; Psa, 105: 40.) "Quails belong to the partridge family, They are migratory birds 'and in March and April come up from Arabia and other southern countries, and cross the. Mediterranean Sea in vast num-- bers; and return southwards from Europe in even more enormous flights towards the end of September. They always fly with the wind. 'When they alight, which they generally do at night, they cover the ground; 'and being usually exhausted can be cap- tured by hand in great numbers." "And when the dew that lay was - gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness a small round thing, small as the hoar-frost on the ground. And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, What is it? for they knew not what it was. And Moses said unto them, It is the bread . which 'Jehovah hath given you to eat. "This is the thing which Jehovah hath commanded. Gather ye of it every man, according to his eating; , an omer a head, according to the number of your persons, shall ye take it, every man for them that are in his tent. And the children of Is- rael did so, and gathered some more, some less."--One omer was equiva- lent to about three quarts and one- fifth of a pint. Ten omers made one ephah, "And when they measured it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no. lack; they - gathered every man according to his eating." -- In 2 Cor. 8: 15, St. Paul adopts words from this verse in begging the Corinthians to be liberal in their alms-giving for the poor Christians in Jerusalem. He tells his readers that he has no wish that they should "have distress, in order that others should have relief. He desires an equal balance that they should, at the present time, supply, out of their abundance, the needs of their poorer children. All these instructions were to - keep the Jewish people from hoarding and to prevent any man from having such an abundant over- supply that he could sell what God had freely given him to his neighbors.. Furthermore, it was a perfect provi- sion against gluttony. "And Moses said unto them, Let no man leave of it till the morning. Not- withstanding -they 'hearkened not un- to Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became foul: and Moses was wroth with them."--Of course among wo million people it would hardly be expected that all would be obedient to even God's commands, and yet one would think when the Israclites real- ized how miraculously God was pro- viding for their needs and how grac- fous he was to them in delivering them from the bondage of Egypt, 'they would have gladly yielded their + obedience to him in everything which SA x asked. Yet, how many of us, who Al re the recipients of the wealth of the grace .of God, have not known times when we deliberately ' went straight against the will of God and feved him by our stubborn diso- edience ? RT : ""And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore hast thou brought us up out of Egypt ~to kill us and our children, and our cattle with thirst? And Moses cried _ unto' Jehovah, saying, What shall I do unto this nasnla? thav are almost ready to ston: me?"'--One of the great penalties of leadership is lone- liness. When a man, by his ability, or brilliance, of great achievements, or positions, is lifted h'gh above or- dinary men, and even men above the ordinary, he is in a class by himself, and in his own environment, or com- munity, 'or business, there are few and probably none wth whom he can' fellowship. When people began: to criticize Moses, there was no man to whom he could turn for consolation-- he was driven to God alone. That is the one blessing that can come to us from the strife of tongues, from mis- understanding on the part of other people whom we have tried to bles from those who should have helped) instead of criticizing--we are driven to the bosom of our Father in Heaven, "And Jehevah said unto Moses, Pass on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thy hand, and go. Be- hold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And llcses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel."--God, in his graciousness, instead of rebuk- ing the people, instructed Moses how he was itg-satisfy their thirst at once, by taking the rod ¢f which God had spoken to him before, and which the had. so powerfully used -during the plagues with which God smote Egpyt. (Ex. 4: 2, 4, 17, 20; 7:9--20; 8:.5, 16, 17; 9. 23; 10, 13; 14: 16) The exact location of the rock at Horels; where this miracle took place, it is not possible now to identify. = The names which Moses gave to this place, Massah and Meribah, mean, respectively, "proving," and "strife." -Massah is mentioned again in Deut. "6: 16; 9: 22; 33: 8; Ps, 81: 7. How strange that water should come out of a rock! A rock would seem the last place to choose for the storage of water. But God's cupboards are in very un- likely places. Ravens bring food. The prime minister of Egypt: gives corn. Cyrus lets go the people of .Israel from Babylon, The Jordan heals the leper, Meal makes poisoned pottage wholesome. Wood makes iron swim. _A Samaritan binds up the wounds anl save the life of the pillaged traveller. Joseph of Arimathae buries the sacred body in his own new tomb. It is worth while to go to Rephidim -to-get--an-insight into the fertility and inventiveness of God's provi- dence. There can be no lack to them that fear Him, and no' fear of lack to those who have become acquaint- ed with his secret storehouses. Better Understanding Between Individuals Matter of Education 'NEW YORK.--Before anything can be done about the understanding between nations, said Mrs. Franklin "D. Roosevelt recently, "we must do something about the: understanding between individuals." "And that, I believe, is entirely, a matter of education," she added, Mrs. Roosevelt, in an address said the men and women of one nation -must-learn -more-about the people of other nations before they can under- stand them, Sees Her Escort Shot (ht tr Patricia Eatone before whose hor- rified eyes George Les" Brune- man, reputedly a big-time gamb- ler, was shot and critically wound- ed at they were walking together at Redondo Beach, Cal.

McNaughton, who had established himself as a comedy favorite on the English stage, migrated to America in the twcnties. In 1933 he met Phil Baker on a motion picture lot. When the accordian-playing jester came to radio he obtained McNaughton for the all-important "Bottle." As a result the Englishman has become one of the air's best known characters, But until Von Zell invited him to appear on the latter's show, he never receiv- ed an opportunity to display his tal- ents as a headline comic.

With a background of many years of welfare work in New York and Pennsylvenia, Miss Carr joined the E. R. B. in 1935, becoming as- sistant director of the home relief division. In the same year the Works Progress Administration took over relief, the bureau's work being confined to home relief and Misa Carr being its chief. Before joining the E. R. B., Miss Carr had served the state as assist- ant director of the Bureau of Women in Industry. Protect Carrots From Rust Flies To Escape Damage From the Maggots Carrot rust flies winter in tha ground and soon after emerging in the Spring lay their eggs in or on the soil immediately surrounding the tiny carrot) seodlings. The maggots hatch. ed from these eggs kill many of the small carrots or create much damage _ by burrowing into the roots of the larger vegetables. There are two gonerations of the carrot rust fly every year, the- first one appearing late in May or early June, and the second in late August or early Sept ember, In Eastern Canada advises the Field Crop and Garden Insects Divi sion, Entomological Branch, Dominion Department of Agriculture, injury from the first generation of carrot rust flies will be avolded by delaying planting until the middle of June, as at that time the flies have mostly dis- appeared. When carrots are planted oarly for the Summer. Market, the rust fly can be controlled by watering the seedlings twice with corrosive sublimate, used in the strength of one ounce to 10 gallons of water. The first application should be made dur- ing tho first week of June and the second application a week later. The solution should be poured over the plants, care being taken to wet them thoroughly, as well as two or three inches of the soil around the seedlings. One point of importance is that wooden vessels or graniteware only should be used in mixing and ap- plying the corrosive sublimate as fit quickly cats away a metal container and in doing so loses Its strength, If is a deadly poison and should be very carefully handled. Carrots should b¢ harvested as early as possible te escape damage from the maggots of the second generation. Health-o-Grams Cancer deaths in Toronto in 1936 totalled 1077, the largest number in any year since 1932. Forty percent of all deaths in To- ronto in 1936 were due to the so-call- ed degenerative diseases of later adult life, discases of the heart, kid- neys, and arteries, a total of 2,861. Though old persons with high blood pressure and bad arteries should avoid the shock of the sea when it is cold, most states of ill-health are im- proved by judicious sea-bathing. ("Better Health" --published by Cen- tral Council for Health Education, London, Eng.). The average human is ill 30 times durmg his lifetime. Possibly eighty percent. of h's ailments are trivial; they run their course and vanish. Medical science has found ways of checking most of the more serious dizecases, especially if these are treat- ed carly in their course; but many times all diseases, even the transitory one when checked, have already per- manently affected the body--hence the necessity for early and correct trestment. Would Rebuild Great Britain LONDON.---A four-year plan cell- ing for almost complete reconstruc- tion of Great Britain at a cost of £1,000,000,000 ($4,980,000,000) has been advanced by Major Ernest Matthews, secretary to the Institute of Registered Architects. .
