"We will fill up their plant ca. pacity," said Mr, Howe. "There {is being reorganized now under the direction of Allan Williamson, the new controller of supplies." The old indirect plan of rationing sup plies of raw materials was being abandoned. No Loss of Emplpyment ployment by this change-over," sald Mr. Howe. "Every plant we can use will be used," No man should have any difficulty getting _ a job today," . The "bits and pieces" program wis 'going ahead. By this program -- the -government plans to- utilize every small machine shop and plant "hat can h adle war ordors. More wamen will be employed in war industry as time goes on. "They will be taken on in in creased numbers," the minister safd. In reorganizing the priorities system on raw materials Canada and the United States had got to- gether, On United States priorities Canada was being treated insofar as steel and other- materials was concerned just as if this country was a state of the Union.

Inas- much as the 103rd Psalm 1s a Psalm of David .it was probably written between 1020 and 1040 B.C. The prophecy taken from Isaiah was -written about 712 'B.C. The Sermon on the Mount was de- livered in thecsummer of A.D, 28, whereas the conversation of our Jord with the lawyer took place on Tuesday April 4th, A.D. 30, The passage from the 14th' of John was uttered on Thursday evening, the -same week, April 6th, 'Man has never been able, by 'his own wisdom, to come to a .true knowledge of the living God, Gad has three ways of revealing Him- self--through His Word, through His Works and through His Son. Our lesson considers the revelation of God in His Word. - Man, In God's Image 26. "And God sald, Let us make man in our image, after our own likeness; and let them have do- minlon over the 'fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing, that creepeth ypon the earth, 27. And God created man in His own image, In the image o God créated He them; male and female created he them.. 28. And God blessed them; and God sald unto them, Be fruitful and multiply," and replenish the earth and sub- due it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth," It was specifi. cally -the mind of man -that was created In the divine Image. It was created with "original right. eousness," As God is holy, so man was created holy. This great at- tribute of man, -as he came, origin- ally from the creative Land. of God, ight be called the moral and spiritual image. : - . God as a Father 24, "No man can serve two mas- *ters;. for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon, . not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; | nor yet for your body, what ye- shall put on. Is not the life more + than the food, and the body than the raiment? 26, Behold the birds of tne heaven, that they sow not nelther do they reap, nor gather into barns, and your heavenly father feedeth them. Are not ye of much more value than they? 27, And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? 28. And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? , Consider the lilies of the field, how, they grow; they toil not, neither "do they spin: 29. Yet I say unto - ._ you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and' tomorrow fis cast "into the oven, shall he not much more, clothe you, O ye of little faith? "'31. Be not therefore anx- fous, "Jaying, What shall we eat, or 'what shall we drink? or, whero- withal shall wé be clothed? 32, For after all these things do . the Gentiles seek; for your heav-" enly Father knoweth that. ye have need of all these things." What is meant by God being our Father? There is a dofinite relationship im- plied here a relationship of love, The heathen thought of God is that he i8 far removed from our per- plexties, either ignorant of our struggles," or unsympathizing with them.

To seek the Kingdom of God is noi to dream about it, or to wish that we were participhting in His Kingdom, or even to approve the rule of God, but it is to yield our lives to God; not to talk about righteousness, but to practice righteousness. : Cure For Worry.
