L Text--Exodus 25: 1, 2, 8, 9; 4 29: 43--46; 40: 34-38, GOLDEN TEXT---Blessed is the na- tion whose God is the Lord, -- Psalm 83; 12. The Lesson in its Setting Place--Mount Sinai. Time--B.C. 1489, "And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they take for me an of- fering: of every man whose heart maketh him willing ye shall take my offering."--For the construction of this place of 'worship, the people "themselves were to bring offerings of geld, and silver, and brass, of 'vari- ous kinds of 'cloth, of acacia wood, with various kinds of stones, but only those were to bring such offerings whose hearts led them to do so will- Jngly. : ¥ And let them make me a sanctu- ary, that I may dwell among them, According to all that I show thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it."--Two _ things in this-introductory announce- ment the Lord makes clear to Moses '--first, that tha sanctuary which Wehovah is now 'speaking of is a place in which God would dwell among His people, the Israelites. The verb "dwell" is the one from which the word shekinah comes (see Lev. 15: +81; 16: 16:16; 26: 11-12; Num. 9: 18, 20).--The tabernacle is, in general, an adumbration of the great dwell- fag-place of God, where He holds converse with all the ranks of His rational creatures, the heaven of heavens." Set Apart for God "® "And the Tent shall be sanctified by my. glory."-- In the Old Testa-! ment, when any thing, or -any per- #0n, or any day, is said to have been sanclified, we understand that that thing, or perzon, or day was set apart for holy purposes," for God's service and worship, As would' --# naturally be expected, that thing or person was to be kept clean from all defilment and pollution of any kind * that would interrupt unbroken com- - munion wth God, or hinder the ser- vice for wah this thing or person we sesittily the tent of m .ne altar: Aaron also and «.s suas will I sanctify, to min- ist& to me in the priest's office." -- The entire chapter, of which these verses are the conclusion, is a des- cription of the rites by which Aaron and his sons were set apart and - Fanctified for their priestly office. "And I will dwell among the chil- 4 dren of Israel, and will be their verse without thinking of two won- derful New Testament passages con- cerning a greater tabernacling of God with men. In John 1: 14, we read: "And the world became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begot- ten from the Father), full of grace and truth." It should be noted that that margin of the Revised Version informs us that the verb here trans- lated "dwelt" is literally a verb meaning "tabernacled." (See also Rev. 21 :3). That which God begins to do with his own chosen people, the Israelites, out there in the wild- erness of Sinai, God will bring to glorious perfection in the eternity to come, for all his people who have truly been redeemed, separated and sanctified, because of the blood of Christ, to whom all the tabernacle service pointed. "And they shall know that I am Jehovah,, their God, that brought them forth out of the 1and of Egypt, that I might dwell among them: I =: Jehovah, their God."--Life with- out a knowledge of God, is the most tragic thing in the unjvesse, And "this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and. him whom thou -didst send, even Christ. (John 17: 8). ~, "Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle, And Moses was not able to enter iuto the tent: of meeting, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle."--When all had been done according to God's instruc. "tions, then the very purpose God in- tended the tabernacle to serve was realized when he himself, in the form of a cloud, came down to rest upon the tabernacle. "A cloud is the con- stant symbol, or if not always this, the accompaniment of the divine presence (Ex, 14: 19; 19: 16; 83: 9; 1 Kings 8: 10; Psalm 104: 3; Isa. 19: 1; Dan. 7: 13). - "And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the chil- dren of Israel went onward, through- out all their journeys: But if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up. } "For the cloud of Jehovah was upon the tabernacle by day, and there was fire therein by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journey."--The children of Israel were thus most divinely guided by none other than God himself in his manifestation and presence in the cloud, which, by night, appeared as fire. 'We are: led today also by God, not by such a visible things as a cloud, but by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us (Rom, 8: 14). 4 | The Book Shelf | By ELIZABETH EEDY MURDER AT GOVERNMENT House -- by Elspeth Huxley, (Methven & Co., Ltd., Toronto, Reginald Saunders): "The * music goes _round and around, but it won't come oft," says Superintendent Vachell, of the Chania Police, when he finds himself in charge of an investi- gation which seems lead no- Where. A most horrifying murder has been committed--Sir Malcolm : McLeod, Governor of Chania, one of the larger British colonies in Africa, "has been strangled at his desk in Government House, by. an ¥ unknown assassin, on the eve of a conference with a colleague, the Governor of Totseland. Clues point in a mass of scandal and in- trigue begins to bo uncovered, _ More than one of the official sec- retaries had motive and oppor- tunity, but which man carried out his threats against the Governor's e? ERY : Old S:ilu, grand old Man of the Wabenda Tribe in the nearby Bush, proponds a riddle: "What is it?" 'he asks, "that swallows at noontime, he who is swallowed by night? He who swells and grows little. Old Silu knows the 2s, but keeps his knowledge 'to himself, while Chanio secethes with rumors and the police are at their wit's end. "Murder at Government House" is a cracking good yarn which keeps you on your toes till the bi line. The element of mystery ind suspense i3 very well-handled. When the final solution comes, you wonder why you didn't guess it before, because the murderer has been getting in his work right under your eyes, A--3 But, enough about the story -- We mustn't spoil it for you, Miss Huxley, in this, her first, full-length novel, shows a first- hand knowledge of the colonial background which, together with the unusual sctting, she hag chosen, of a town in the heart of Africa, gives us something quite new in the line of a crime story. A visiting woman anthropolog- - ist from the London School of Economics adds a dash of humor to the situation, and the antics of officialdom draw many a chuckle, You'll enjoy the chase by plane over the mountain valleys of Central Africa, "dotted with the. dark purplé cones of old volcanoes and rolling pastures which were in reality, dense forests of bam- boo." ' When the flight ends, what do you find? Perhaps the seditious native secret society was behind the dark deed of crime? Read "Murder at Government House" and see. Into the bargain you'll be entertained. Mushroom Poison Cure Developed PARIS.--Dr. Leon Binet, Professor of Physiology has announced the de. velopment of a cure for mushroom polsoning, The treatment consists of glucose injections, which restore the normal glucose content of the blood destroyed by the mushroom toxin, Death may be prevented, he said, by an injection of 40 grams of glu- cose per litre of distilled water. His attention was called to the treatment when he noticed that fn mushroom pofsoning the glucose con- tent of the blood, normally one gram per litre, dropped to three-tenths of a gram 12 hours after the poisoning, There followed experiments over a period of years upon rabbits, which have the same blood glucose content ag human beings.

WE p-- RA a Drama Series Starts Sept. 13 The Lux Radio Theatre, one of the outstanding dramatic features of the alr, startg its third year on CBS, Mon- day, September 13, from 9.00 to 10.00 p.m. B.D.S.T. Since the first Columbia broadcast of this series began, July, 1935, with the presentation of Helen Hays in "Bunty Pulls the Strings", the programs have presented such stars and vehicles as Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur in "The Plainsman"; Les- lie Howard and Elissa Landi in "Mon- sleur Beaucaire"; Edward G. Robin son and Beverly Roberts in "The Crim- inal Code"; Jeanette MacDonald in "Tonight or Never"; Walter Huston, Nan Sunderland and Fay Bainter in "Dodsworth", and many other famed artists of stage and screen in nearly "100 other plays of equal importance. Because of the talent, selection and production of these radio plays, which are under the direction of Cecil B. "DeMille, they have won such acclaim as the award for the best dramatic program by the Women's National Radio Committee, and first place for radio drama in the New York World- Telegram Polls of 1935 and 1936, a vote which'is taken among radio edi- tors of newspapers. throughout the country, i Phil Baker to be Heard from Coast to Coast In New Series Phil Baker returns to the air over sixty Columbia stations from coast to coast, Sunday, October 3, at 7.30 p.m. E.S.T, This new series marks the third consecutive year that the accor- deon squeezing comedian has been sponsored by Gulf. Beetle and Bottle will be on hand to heckle Baker, Harry McNaughton will again take the role of Bottle, while Beetle will remain as a haunting voice. His identity is to¥ remain a closely veiled sceret, Silver Theatre Inaugurates New ' Dramatic Series Leadlng stars of screen and stage will be heard on the Silver Theatre, a half-hour weekly show, starting Sun. day, October 3, at 5.00 p.m. A new departure in the method of selecting material for these broadcasts will set a precedent in radlo drama. The Sil- ver Theatre will make use primarily of novels, magazine storles and orig- inal manuscripts. This will glve radio listeners an opportunity of hearing thelr favorite "stories in dramatic form. Other details concerning the new Silver Theatre series will be an- nounced as soon as arrangemonts have been made. Repeat Series of Muskoka Broad- : cast A repeat serles of Vacationland Tours, sponsored by the Muskoka Tourist Development Assoclation will be heard over CFRB, 2.00 to 2.15 p.m., Tuesdays and Thursdays starting Aug. 10th. The program will feature Harry Lord as the travelling commentator, and incidental organ music will be supplied by Vincent Boyd, known to radio listeners as "Flying Fingers". Ernest Taylor, Canadian baritone, will appear as guest on several programs. Each program will bring to the miero- phone one of the prominent men of the north country. Interesting Morning Program A rather novel and interesting meth- od of broadcasting morning exercises is presented on a nation-wide network This wake-up program features songs and gags intermingled with the exercises. Dobsie and Wee Willie are the only characters. The program is heard each morning over CKOC, CKCR, CFCO, CKCH, CHSJ, CKCW, CHNC, CJLS, and many western sta- tions. It has just came out that a certain congressman in the good old U.S.A. is trying to pass a bill which will make all the radio entertainers use their right names. Now ean you im- agine the embarrassment of the poor radio announcer introducing such celebrities as Izzy Iskowitz, Benny Kubloski, William Dunkenfield, Glen Knoblauch or Marie Gabriel Germaine Belzeniere Belanger? Which are the real names of Eddie Cantor, Jack Ben- ny, W. C. Flelds, Glen Gary and Gogo deLys. Bob Bazooka Burns was once known as "Blue" in the vaudeville team of "Black and Blue." His first plcture work was imitating a negro drinking soup in Universal's Heaven on Earth, starring Lew Ayers, who has been Burns' second best pal ever since. Burns was also champion rifle shot of the Allied armies in France during the World War beating 1,400 of the crack shots of all allied armies fn a competition which lasted more than a year. He's really got something to toot about. Radio's First Croaker Andy Devine, gravel-throated come- dian, hag received more fan mail dur- ing his few months on radio with Jack Benny than in ten years in the moy- fes. His voice has been raspy and husky since he was a small child and tried to swallow a ruler with a Jagged brass edge. Andy's vocal strain has made him a fortune. He calls him- self the radio's first croaker, You should have heard him sing a duet with Bing Crosby at a recent bonefit, He can't beat Bing at golf, either, but the two are friendly enemies every time they tee-off on the golf course which is directly behind the homes of both actors. Although the new Chase & Sanborn hour which {s leaping up to the top of the popularity poll like a whippet is packed with star names and tal- ents, Nelson Eddy is to be added to the program starting some time this month, All of which will' be gratity- ing news to the leglon of Eddy fans who never seem to get enough of this popular singer's golden voice. Edgar Bergen, who is the brilliant "mouthpiece" for Charlie McCarthte, has printed special stationery for Charlie and all his future fan letters are to be answered on it. (We have the inside dope that Charlie writes Just like he talks.) Kenny Baker, sweet volced tenor on the Jello Hour, received $19.00 a week and a guarantee of six breakfasts a week for his wife and himself on his first professional radio broadcasting engagement. : 'The Big Fight We read that the big Farr-Lewls fight to take place this month is to be described to the radio listeners by none other than Wladyslag Ochry- mowicz. I guess a great many of the listeners are not acquainted with this name but when we tell you that his American name is Ira Walsh that should clear things up. Clem McCar- thy, who will also describe the big fight, will also take the air on Thurs- day night at 5.15 to interview Joe Lewis at his training camp. Can you remember Tony Wons? He who had the serap, book. A great number of people have been asking, "Where's Tony?" and so I thought I would tell you. Tony has been catch- ing up on his hobby. Sounds queer doesn't it, but it's true. Tony always had a great ambition to make good violins and so when his contract was up last year he would not renew it but wont home to the family home- stead 'way out in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and has been there ever since making violins, one of which by the way he "has just refused $2500 for. But Tony and his sound, kindly philosophy will be back on the air again this fall and I for one will be very glad to hear his simple kindly poems fv'l of good advice to mankind, Want Live Talent Orchesira Well sir, the radio stations around town are beginning to wonder what will happen if a series of private meetings now in progress In New York are successful. The meetings are being held by the A.F.M.. American Federation of Musicians, and this as. sociation is trying to put the clamps on the radio stations so as to foren them to do away with transcribed music and to supplant musical records with live talent orchestra. It is re- ported that the radio stations have heen glven till August 14th to prepara for the change and if they do not agree at that time then the Federa tion will call a strike of its musicians which will just about close up every- thing as far as music is concerned, which includes hotels, night-clubs snd dance halls. And if the rule passes what will we have on the air you may ask. Well I'll tell you, we will have Talk! Talk! and more Talk. Think it over folks, it really is serious. Bing Crosby, who left the air a short time ago to open his new million dollar race track "Del Mar," at San Diego, California, will be back on the air again this fall. This track, which is rated as one of the best on ihe con tinent, opened on July 3rd, and all Hollywood attended to see Bing's horse take the opening race. The ush- erg are all dressed In the prevailing Spanish costumes and Bing in his usual work clothes, sailor cap and big pipe. "Del Mar" has eight races dafly and there {3 no betting limit. 3180,000 went through the windows the opon- ing day. , Neighbors Help LINDSAY. --- More than 100 neigh- bors of Willlam Newman,. Liberal member for Victoria of the Ontarlo Legislature, have gathered at his farm and erected a new barn to re- place the one destroyed by fire three weeks ago. At tho timo of the $5,000 fire, neighbors promised to do the work so Mr, Newman could attend to his dairy business and politics, Heat Kills Birds WEYBURN, Sask. -- Scores of blackbirds were killed by the heat on Monday, July 5, when an official tem- perature of 114 was registered, Sore Again Friend--Your husbana is sulking again.

Taylor, Deputy Minister wt Game and Fisheries for Ontario made the statement that more tourists in. vaded Ontario in the good fishing sea- sons of 19284929 than in any compar- able period since the birth of the Dionne quintuplets. From the nature of the statement, It is obvious that . the Deputy Minister does not propose to let the famous Quints take the lion's share of publicity and credit for the great influx from across the line. Mr, Taylor is right. He has committed no heresay whatever. Mr. Taylor was an e¢lacted member of the Legislature in 1934 and he re- signed to take the appointment tn tha Game and Fisheries Department, Such - things have happened before in pohti- cal life, bit not so happily as in the case of D. J. Taylor, who has proven his worth and capacity in every way as an official with very heavy respon sibilities. He has a sound outlook in conservation of game and fish, and he has sponsored one of the best aut- umn shoots in the country, that on Pelee Island, when the farmers gain by the great fnvasion and all other business there abouts gains too. But to get back to the lure of (igh- ing. It {8 no respecter of persons. The rich and the poor alike are hit 'hard. We have seen the former with enough fancy expensive tackle and equipment, plus high-powered boat with guide to catch all the fish In the lake in no time. But the catch in it all is that they don't. They monkey first with one lure, then another. Finally it often occurs, they take the worms the gulde 'has brought with him, do an hour's still fishing and make a good catch of black bass, And are they happy and proud. Expense cuts no ice at all; it is the catch which counts, for which many have burned up dollars in gas and have travelled far. When {t Is a good catch, the home town newspaper gets a picture with all the particulars. 'The Dionne Quints may bo the passing rage, or ---- vogue for many tourists; the lure of fishing will never die out in the hu- man breast. And talking about fishing lures, an article by a scientific expert recently submitted that all the high-colors on spinners, flies, etc, were of no ac- count at all to the fish, which when looking at the bait, had no sense ot color at all, just of motion. The col- ored fly spinners and spoons were just made to attract the sucker on land, We can neither prove nor disprove this scientific conclusion. Beetle Attacks School House Insect Really Voracious -- Menu Has 200 Items Twenty-one years ago the Japanese beetle made fits first appearance in New Jersey. It lost no time in making itself a nuisance and a curse. In halt a dozen years or so it covered a terri- tory of 2,500 square miles. Since some time in June it has been raiding New Jersey. It has invaded West- chester and Long Island. Pennsyl- vania suffered from its depredations years ago. It looks like the pirate it is, gaudy and green, its wing-covers done in copper-brown. Hardly any other pets is so loathsome to the dweller in the country. Its bill of fare contains 200 or more items. We firmly believe that it has been trying to eal up a Jersey school house; and it i8 entirely credible that it is actuated noi by hunger but by an insatiable desire to do malicious mischief. It tears your roses to tat- ters. It strips the trees of leaves, It ruins the grass, It loves best your best-loved fruit tree. A prohibition- ist, it hates grapes. A new cconomist, it reduces the corn crop. As befits a savage, it rages especially against shade trees and beautiful shrubs. Un. derground the larva, the beetle-to-be, is at work on the roots, spoiling the lawn. Underground and overhead..jt is a tireless destroyer. Trees can be sprayed with arsenate of lead, but that makes the fruit dan- gerous. Starlings and even gulls, not at present a common land bird, are suid to bo fond of the Japanese bect- le. We never had the luck to see the Japanese flies and wasps that have been imported from Japan to make away with this undesirable. immi- grant. As we think of Westchester and Long Island and Jersey we have a glimpse of weary and exasperated men, women and children patiently picking these infamous creatures oft their prey and dropping them into a can of kerosene. They poison Sum. mer. Would that some magical in. cantation could wipe out the whole brood! Quality of Mercy Does Seem Strained PARIS.--Mme. Madeleine Fontages, self-proclaimed former friend of Prem. for Mussolini of Italy, received a sus- pended sentence of one year in prison at the conclusion of her secret trial on charges of shooting Count Charles Pinaton de Chambrun, The trial was held fh secret because judges feared the vivid brunette might talk too freely of her.alleged love af- fair with 11 Duce.
