Helliwell." The ap- plicant seemed to have had good experience and, was instructed to start work. The foreman was sur- prised wiren M. Helliwell turned up to commence doing a repair job on top of a tall factory chimney, be- cause M. Helliwell, prior to chang- ing Into working. togs, wore petti- coats and gave her full name as May . Helliwell. The foreman told her she ought to go home, but she pleaded for a chance to show what she could do, promising to make no fuss about it if she was reject- ed. However, she climbed without fear and did the job, and ever since then she and another woman in another part of the country have established reputations as steeple- Jills who are just as fearless, and just as efficient as any of the steeplejacks. Mrs. Helliwell is the wife of a steeplejack who is in the army, and before the war just for the sake of adventure accompanied him on some of his jobs. After he Joined. up she decided to adopt the calling herself, Her tallest job has been 300 feet. Mgs. Helliwell has lots of nerve, however, and issues a challenge to any man In the business to a time race up a chim- mney with a 60-foot rim 17 inches wide. Except for a job calling for sheer phyeical strength there is prob- ably no task hitherto undertaken only by men that some women in England are not afraid to tackle.

Ontario's 1042 soybean. crop is likely to be so large there will not be enough processing plants in Canada to handle more than halt of the crop, according to N. D. MacKenzie, plant products inspec. ~ tor of the Dominion Department of Agriculitre. Not only is the © 1942 crop one of the largest ever grown In Canada, but It is at the same time of the highest quality throughout most parts of the dis. trict. > Mr. MacKenzie, wlio has just completed a tour of inspection of the soybean fields, announced it was the finest crop he had seen. Throughout the Chatham section of the district and through to Windsor, the crop is a record one. There has been very little frost damage it any and while the rain hos made harvesting difficult it has had little effect on the soy. beans themselves, In the district east of Chatham through Middle- sex, Elgin and Oxford Counties there had been considerable frost damage due in a large part to the farmers planting, the wrong typa of soybean for the soil and climate "which differs "greatly from the climate (n Kent, Fesex and Lamb ton. : .

While frost damage to the soy. beans lowers their value there will likely still be a demand for frost ed beans if the needs of the goy- bean ofl.and other products are - as great as has been predicted.

And the reason you are interested in the Army is because your son or your brother or your father or your sister or your mother is in the Army. You can't find out enough to satisfy you. You want to know what he is doing,- what his en- vironment is,. what his: compan- dons are like or to know whether -she is amongst congenial people, what her job is or is likely to be. In other words, and your parti- cular contact with Army life may not realize it, you want to know every little -thing that goes on. The sort of thing that-is so close to the letter-writer that he or she does not think of it as being in- teresting, Right? Since we understand each other on this point let's have a look at the other side, What about 'the soldier--male or female--who awaits your let- ters from home? What sort of letters do you write? Do you tell every little thing that goes on, do you realize that no soldier, man or woman, is so far from home that home isn't the most absorbing thing to read about when the Mail Corporal comes around with the letters? or parcels? + Not long ago some of our sta- tesmen made pleas for letters to _soldiers that would buck up their morale. They wanted us to write brightly and chéerily so that the boys and girls would feel better about things. Stuff, nonsense cock! . The troops don't need artificial cheerfulness -- the kind of boys and girls in need of artificial cheer haven't yet volunteered for active service -- what they want is news of thelr real life, the life they have put behind them until they finish the job of making a contih- uance of that life possible. Tell them what's happening and poppy "around the barn, down by the Post Office, who is "going with" who -- or should it be whom? -- how many kittens Tabby had last time, how Aunt Martha looked when she slipped on the cellar stairs and broke ler ankle. Write a chapter about the new teacher who slapped the face of the fresh kid whose father is chairman of the School Board. In other words, keep them In the family circle, And when you are doing that -- and be sure to do it often, but not because you fear a loss of morale -- give a thought to the Canadian Postal Corps. * There is an unpublicized unit of . specialists who get nothing but criticism from their fellow sol- diers because mail 13 one of the things we take for granted when we get it and curse the post- man for when it is late! It is a mammoth task, this handling of letters nad parcels to hundieds of thousands of ad- dressees who have literally "no known address." When you put © your letter in the mail box its dés-- * tination, unknown. to you of course, may be the West Indies, Newfoungland, Nova Scotia, Egypt, Gibraltar, England, Scot- land or Brockville, It may change from one of those destinations to another while the letter Is en route, ; ' But that letter is delivered, and in less time than the civilian Post Office which works very closely with the C.P.C., could handle an ordinary piece of mail, As an eXample imagine you have decided to take a trip to Vancouver, Half way there you modities, Don't tell me.

Help it do this big job for you by seeing to it that no in- fraction goes un-reported.

THE CHRISTIAN VIEW OF MARRIAGE Genesis 1:27, 28; 2:18.24; Jeremiah 29:4.6; Matthew 19:3.6; John 2:1.5 PRINTED TEXT . Genesis 2:18:24; Matthew 19:3.6; John 2:1.5 / TEXT.--Let marriage 4 Heb- GOLDEN .be had in honor among all. rews 13:4, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--We do not know when our first parents began their life together. It was something over six thousand years ago. The let- ter of Jeremiah's, partly quoted in .this lesson, was written about 599 B.C. Our Lord's teaching on divorce was given in February, A.D. 30. The marriage in Cana occurred in February, A.D. 217, Place.--We do not know where the garden of Eden was located, but it was probably near the lower part of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers; those to whom Jeremiah wrote were living in Babylon, Our Lord's teaching on divorce was given in Peraea. The wedding described by John was in Cana of Galilee, Before the Creation of Eve 18. "And Jehovah God said, It is not good that man should be alone; 1 will make him a help meet for him. 19, And out of the ground Jehovah God formed every beast of the field, and every bird of the heavens; and brought them unto"the man to see what he would call them: and whatsoever the man called every living creature, that was the name thereof. 20v. And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; but for man there was not found a help meet for him." The main word in this paragraph ls helpmeet, which means, literally, a helper. The expression indicates that the forthcoming helper was to be of similar nature to the man himself, corresponding by way of supplement to the incompleteness of his lonely being, and in every way adapted to be his co-partner and companion. All that Adam's nature demanded for its comple- -tion, physically, intellectually, so- cially, was to be included in this -other-self who was soon to stand by his side. Thus in man's need, and woman's power to satisfy that need, is laid the foundation for the Divine institution of marriage, which was afterwards prescribed not for the first pair alone, but for all their posterity. Creation of Eve 21, "And Jehovah God cauged a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof: 22, and the rib, which Jehovah" God had taken from the man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man." It is interesting to note that man was a keeper of the garden before woman was created, and was to be enabled to provide for the sus- tenance and comfort of his wife. Adam's Joy 28. "And the man said, This 'Is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man." The poctry of love is found here in its first origin, expression to the joyful surprise with which he beholds her. Divine Rite of Marriage __24, "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be onc flesh." There: are four great principles enunciated in this one verse. (1) . One man was to have one wife and one woman one husband, that is except in the case of the death of one. (2) The devotion of hus- band and wife should be first to each other and not to their par- ents. (3) Husband and wife are permanently united in the deepest devotion, and this relationship is deeper than citizenship in a state, employment in any egnecern, mem- bership in any human organiza- tion, devotion to any social group, (4) Marriage does have, and is in- tended to have, a deep physical basis, and husband and wife should be, and are intended to be, definitely attracted to each other.

After considerable dis- cussion, it/has been decided to continue the hgrkey broadcasts of the National Hockey League again this scason. There was in fact more argument pro and con on the subject of continuing profes- sional hockey this season, than in deciding to voice the puck action over the national networks, In many ways it was largely the radio angle which swung the de- cision to continue the N.H.L. games this winter. One potent argument favoured the belief that even a Canada dt war required the relaxation which the broad- casts of hockey every Saturday evening brought to listeners from the Atlantic to the Pacific . . . so Saturday evening is again to become Canada's national hockey night from coast to coast, CBL and CERI Toronto will carry the broadcasts; commencing October 81st, 9 p.m. New York Rangers and Toronto Maple Leafs will open the scason. As usual the Hot Stove - League featuring Elmer Fergiison, Wes McKnight, Harold Cotton and Bobby Hewitson will In connection with the opening of the hockey season, sports fans will be glad to know that Wes Me- Knight's interviews with hockey stars will be broadcast for the 10th consecutive season, Origin- ating from CFRB Toronto these interviews will bo heard every Saturday evening 7 to 7.156 and will be fed to many Canadian stations across the Dominion, Coach Happy Day who led the Leafs to the Stanley Cup last: season will face the microphone on Saturday, October S1st. . .

The = Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has just announced the commencement of a new ser- ies of Sunday morning programs designed to familiarise the chile dren with the Bible, and®particu« larly with the Life of Christ, Like the very popular series "And It Came to Pass," the new presen- tation styled "Dramas from the Bible" will offer stories entirely in dramatic form, Old Testament stories. will be featured during November concerning Noah, Abra- ham, Moses, Elijah and the Young David. The stories presumably are designed with particular ap- peal to children in the age group of 12 to 14 years, bat at the same time will include enough dramatic interest to gain the ear of older youth groups and adults, The first programme will be heard, Sunday, November 1st, over net- work stations of the CBC, 10 a.m. EE . * Have you heard the new "Good Luck" show which commenced over CBL a week ago on a Mon- day, Wednesday and Friday 7 to 7.16 schedule?

Divorce 8-6. "And there came unto him Pharisees, trying him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? 4. And he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, b. and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shal cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh? 6. So that they are no more two but one flesh, What hath joined, to- gether, let not man put asunder." Marriage is a fundamental human } than a living together of man and woman; it is a psychical as well as a physical completion of indivi- duals; and as such it Is in the largest sense of the term a fra- ternity that depends for its per- petuation upon love, Divorce by Jesus is regarded as Impossible, except as a formal recognition of an already broken: union. As marriage gives rise to an actual union of personalities, it can be broken only by an actual severance of this union. Our Lord does not say that every mar- riage entered into is according to the will of God. What our Lord does say is that when God has united two people in marriage, no one should ever do, or think, or plan, or suggest anything that would break that marriage cove- nant, and lead to the termination of that holy relationship, Wedding Feast In Cana 1. "And the third day there was & marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: 2, and Jesus also was bid- den, and his disciples, to the mar- riage. © 3. And when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said unto hiw, They have no wine. 4. And Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 5. His mother saith unto tne servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it." As this was a marriage feast, we cannot forget that in the benu- tiful words of the marriage service Christ 'hallowed and adorned! that divine institution 'by his presence and first miracle that he wrought In Cana of Galilee! At the very beginning of the Old Testament we find the primeval law that one man €hould be the husband of one __ wife, and here, at the very outset of his ministry, we have Christ giving his countenance to mar- Tiage, thereby showing at what a distance he stood from those who, already in the days of Paul, had begun to forbid men to marry, and had cast reproach upon the holiest and most helpful relation- ship of life, At all our feasts, therefore, let us seek to have Christ present, and to be ourselves Christians, Above all, at our marriage feasts let us send our first invitation to him, for when 'marriages among us shall be en- tered into in that spirit, there will be fewer divorces in the land.
