They heard what hundreds of young people bad to say for them. selves -- and they learned that most of them made the same mis- takes. They hadn't done any prepara. tion before going to the appoint. ment, That was obvious, For they knew nothing of the business, And ' they didn't even know what to of- ter for sale, All they knew was the lact that they wanted a job -- and they would "do anything." Most of them were pretty nearly tongue-tied. Instead of taking -an employer's question as an opening for selling themselves, they were content with "Yes, sir," and "No, sir" answers. The women listening behind - the screen decided that the young person who could present a differ- ent picture -- one of intelligent in- terest in the employer's business" and what he could bring to it -- "would seem 80 outstanding that an employer would be willing to take a chance on him, } A VARIATION OF THE SUIT This these: ese costume destined by 'Dolly oto r Virginia Bruce has a - Slrcutar or Skies of light grey. wool: the balero jacket fs of dar TL or 1th border motif of black i braid ambrol dery. * Modern Wars ~~.

LESSON XII ISAIAH: FORETELLING THE BIRTH OF THE MESSIANIC KING.-- Isa. 7:14 9:1.7; 11:1.5 Golden Text.~--His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isa, 9:6. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--Isaiah prophesied from about 740 to 701 B.C. The pro- phecies in this lesson were utter-" ed approximately at 734 B.C. Isaiah is. beyond question the greatest of the Old Testament prophets. In a prophetic activity extending through a long period «of varied experiences and historic- al change, he has given us one of - the grandest monuments of inspir- ed thoughts and utterances. The name Isaiah means '"Jchovah saves." . Prophesies Christ's Birth 14. Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: behold, a vir- . gin shall conceive, and bear a son,- and shall call his name Immanuel. This prophecy was given during the reign of Ahaz, in the midst. of calamities. The child is a sign or a pledge that God is with his peo- ple. This is a truly Messianic passage. The word -"Immanuel" means "God with us," _ Isaiah be- "lieved the Messiah to be different" s from, higher and more divine than any other person who had ever ap- peared in human history. Isa. 9:1-7." 1. But there shall be no gloom' to her that was in an- guish. In the former: time he brdught into contempt the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; but inthe latter time hath he made it glorious, by the way of the sea, beyond 'the Jordan, Galilee of the nations. 2. The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. Isaiah here prophesies the terrible Assy- rian invasion but says that in the midst of it there will be hope.and light." (Zebulun and' Napthali "were tribal areas in northern Pal- estine, directly west of the Sea of Galilee.) 3. Thou has multiplied the na- tion, thou has increased their joy; they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest. as men rejoice when they divide the Spoil. "Na- tion" refers to the Jewish nation which will rejoice when their ag- onies are over. 4, For the yoke of his burden; and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, thou has broken as in the day of Midian. 6. For all the armor of the armed man in the tumult, and the garments rolled. in blood, "shall be for burning, for fuel of fire, His Government 6. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder. . And 'his name shall be called Wonderful, = Counsellor, Mighty God, "Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Five remarkable - titles are given to this predicted i ou Of the increase of his govern- ment and of pekce there shall be no_end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to estab. lish it, and to uphold it with jus- tice and with righteousness from henceforth 'even for" ever, ~ The zeal of, Jehovah of hosts will per- form this," The government of Christ as predicted here will be a righteous and just government, an everlasting government. It will be 'a government set up not by men, but by God, its King appoint- ed by God himself. _The Righloous, Judge Isa. 11:1-5. 1. And there shall come forth a shoot-out - of the stock of Jesse, and-a branch out of his roots shall bear fruit. (a) And the Spirit of Jehovah shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of coun- sel and might. the spirit of know- ledge and of the fear of Jehovah. . Here is pictured the endowment (by the Holy Spirit). of the Messi- ah with eminent prophetic gifts and qualifications for his ministry * on earth. How is each one of.thesc gifts of the Spirit of God manifest- ed in the earthly ministry of the Lord Jesus? 3. And his delight shall be in the fear of Jehovah; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hear- ing of his ears. 4. But with right" eousness shall be judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth. And he shall smite the earth with the rod of his .mouth; and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. 5. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his waist, and faithful- ness the girdle of his loins. The girdle is the symbol of vigorous, unimpeded strength. Christ is' righteousness incarnate anl all his judgments will be according to his character. He. will know all cir- " cumstances, all motives.

A Year On This Continent, Government Official Says Contrary to popular belief, the North American Indian is not de- creasing in numbers, according to Dr. H. W. McGill, director, Indian Affairs Branch, Ottawa, who ad- dressed a seminar conferenco at the Royal Ontario Muscum, To- ronto, recently.

THis" crop has been In field - tests at the Ontario Agricultural College for many years; but has not been unreservedly recommend: ed to the farmers of Ontario as no variety yet tested has been hardy enough to ensure a crop in sea- sons following severe winters. 'Experimental results at the Col lege and the experience of farm- ers 'who have grown wiiter barley indicate the following facts about this crop: -- It is not as depondablo a crop when not winter killed, it produces excep- tionally high yields. The quality of the grain Is gen erally excellent. ' It can be grown on well dralned land in parts of the province where the snow cover is good and where winters are not too severe, It matures very early and thus gives an excellent opportunity to control weeds by after harvest cul. tivation. Sinco summer cultivation is nec: essary to provide a good seed bed, growing this crop gives good con- trol of weeds as partial summer following can be practised = both before seeding and after harvest- ing winter barley.
