LESSON If THE MESSAGE OF JOHN THE BAPTIST. --Luke 8. PRINTED TEXT, Luke 8: 8, 817, 21, 22. - GOLDEN TEXT--Bring forth there- fore fruits worthy of repentance. Luke 3; 8. THE LESSON IN IT§ SETTING Time. --It is generally understood that the ®limax of John's ministry, and the baptism of Christ, occur red between the summer of A.D. 26 and the spring of A.D. 27, Place.---The nitalstry of John the Baptist for the most part was in the wilderness of Judaea. The ex- dct place where Jesus 'was bap- tized is not known, but it is thought to have been not far from the city of Jericho, and of course on the Jordan River. John's Ministry John the Baptist appeared, wand shortly our Lord algo, at a time when the world was ruled by the most powerful government, the Ro- man, that the world has ever known. The priesthood of Israel was as corrupt as the government which she hated.. Israel was in a tragically deplorable condition, cer- tainly needing light, cleansing, a nety word from God which would convict her of her sins, and pre- pare her for receiving the Messiah. At this time the word of the Lord came to ome who had been an. noun¢éd, even before his birth, as - the forerunner of the Messiah, John the Baptist, who was found.at this tine In the wilderness, He had been there at least ton years, One day he roused himsell -under the mastery of a pressure upon him from above and the messenger of the living God began to proclaim his message. Luke 3: 3. And he came into all the region round about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance unto remis- slon of sins. The Rite of Baptism This baptism of John's was an entirely new rite, and highly sig- niticant. The Jews were accustom: ed to ablution as the outward slgn of inward purification; but John made it a universal rite. The first word of his ministry was, Repent; his baptism was for those who had repented; It foretold the puritica- _ tion of mind and heart which comes from the washing away of our sins fn the blood of Jesus Christ; on the part of man, dellvers a declar- atlon of-sin renounced; on the part ot God, of sin forglven. 8. Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to. say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I -say unto you, that God is able of | these stones to raise up children unto' Abraham, The Jews had so exalted a conception of their prlv- {loge as children of Abraham that they could scarcely believe it pos- sible that any son of Abraham should ever be lost. John pointed to the rocky plains around him, and declared that God who had. made Adam from clay could make sons of Abraham from those stones, 9. And even now the axe also lieth at the root'of the trees: every tree * therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit Is hewn down, and cast. into the tire.

Spring Pastares In Canada, during the past de-. cade, many a farmer has revised his estimate of pasture and learn- ed that with rational fertilizing and grazing management it may be made the mast profitable crop on the farm, providing an abun- dance of palatable, more nutri- tious feed over an extended graz- ing season, With the introduction of pas- ture improvement it was (ustom- ary to make the fertilizer appli- cation in spring, a practice that continues on many farms. But the results of experiments indicated a distant advantage in the full application of a mineral fertilizer, notably the 0-16-G, while some relied on straight su- per-phosphate "for the heavier soils, Wher the herbage con- sisted mostly of grasses the fall treatment was sometimes followed by a dressing - of Splphate of Ammonia or other nitregen fertil- izer in spring. . MORE VIGOROUS GROWTH In the fall of 1939 pasture trials to determine chiefly the value of nitrogen in the fertil- izer applied at this season were commenced at a number of points in Ontario and Quebec, the rate and weight of growing being es- periodically during the season by the aid of protective cages placed at several sites in Although the records are not complete, it is possible to draw general conclusions from the data available. The outstanding feature in ev- ery trial was the more advanced and vigorous growth of the fer- tilized herbage, noticed in early spring, and the marked superiori- ty of the grazing throughout the season. In two or three instances where but little clover was pre- sent in the herbage the influence of the nitrogen in the fall Tertil- izer was quite marked at first but less so as the season advanced. The choice lay between 0-16-6 and 2-16-6, the former preferable where clover or other legumes were plentiful, the latter where grasses made up the greater part of the herbage. Radio Irons Out Schedules Continuation of Daylight Time Caused Confusion For _Canadian Broadcasting Cor- poration --- Trouble With Chain Programs Unexpected repercussions of the Federal Power Commissioner's rul- ing continuing daylight saving time where it {s established in Ontario and Quebec, were successfully iron- ed out by the Canadian Broadcast: ing Corporation. The ruling threw a monkey wrench Into plans for winter pro- grams requiring co-ordination with time in other provinces and in the United States where clocks were moved back one hour to standard time, SAME AS ATLANTIC TIME Gernerally speaking programs. of the C. B. C. have been based on Eastern Daylight time in the sume mer and Eastern standard time In the winter. Now they are contin- uing throughout the winter to be based on: Eastern daylight time. The eftect has been to base them on Atlantic standard time. . Thus In the winter days before the war, if a program were pre- sented over a national hookup at- 8 p.m. ES.T, it would be hoard in Halifax at 9 pam, A.S.T. and in Vancouver at 6 pm, P.S.T, Now this program is presented at 9 p.m. EDT. which will be 9 pm, AST. and 6 pm, P.8.T.
