For two days he was unablé to work-- and the wheat already to draw in! There 1s such a + all grain crop this year that we wero hoping to get in what we have In pretty fair shape, but of course by the time Partner was able to wield a fork the wheat was soaking wet again, However, that's the way things go and we just have to make up our minds to-take it on the chin. I . . Last week-end, being a holiday, wo had visitors from the city-- and théy did enjoy the clean, fresh air, even though it was hot. You know I am always very interested ----+--------1in--people's 'reactions -- of city people in the country and vice versa. I like a chance to sce our- sejves as others see us -- that fis, insofar as ordinary politeness will allow people to express their opin- fons. So I was naturally interested in two recent but contrary opin- fons regarding our farm and home. - Here they are. A business man down town went out of his way to compliment us upon the appear- ance of our place from the road. is something very nice about that place of yours,' he said, "the house has good lines and there is so much green around It just seems to nestle among the trees." Then came my sister from the city and after a close-up tour of Inspection these were her re- marks. "You know, Gwen, I was just thinking what a hice place this would have been had the house and gardens been properly arranged. It is such a hit and miss affair with no real shade where you want it!" To tell you the truth I was rather taken aback because I always thought what- ever else we lacked we did have plenty of shade. However, her re- marks sot me thinking, and-any criticism that does that is worth- while. That same evening we went for a short drlve and took par- ticular notice of farm houses along the way. And do you know most of them were "hit and miss." Suddenly 1 realised why, and I- tried to explain' it to my sister. Many of the farms around here are the original family homesteads where pioneers made a ¢learing and built their houses or log cab- ins. The old homes have since been replaced by more 'modern dwellings but practically on the same site. Trées that were allow- ed to remain wore naturally old trees. Nature took Its courso and - tho trees died one by one. Thus we find gaps in evergreens; and little shade where obviously a shade tree would be most wel: come. And yet on tho whole, | think the general effect -of most old farm houses is pleasing. Sym- metrical arrangement is all right for country estates but It doesn't lend itself to the average farm house. I have In mind one place whero there is a low cedar, wind- "break complefely surrounding the house. Back of the windbreak there are Manitoba maples spaced at regular distances." I don't like "that place at all. It is too set-- too procise to suit the surround- ing country. To aim -at too much precision in the country is to at- tempt to paint the lily. A tree Is a beautiful thing, It™-- ghould not be destroyed If it hap- pens to be two feet out of line with another tree, for "only God can make a tree." And don't de- stroy the little saplings around your farm. Thid them out for pro- per growth--or bettér still' trans- plant them, Take a long view of your home--try to see it as others ° geo it, and then you may think twice about urging John to cut _ down that wild apple tree In the back yard. I am reminded of an old estate in England that dated back hun- dreds of years. The property was entalled ani a condition -of the heritage was that for every tree that dled or was cut down anoth- or should be planted In its place. That estate was one of the beauty spots of the countryside.

PRINTED TEXT, Exodus 32: 7-10; -34: 49, 27, 28. GOLDEN TEXT -- Jehovah Is slow to anger, and abundant In loving kindness, forgiving Iniquity and transgression. Numbers 14:18. Memory Verse: I was glad when they said-unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehdvah. Psalm 122: 1. "THE LESSON. IN ITS SETTING Time.--1445-1444 B.C. Place.--At the foot of Sinal." God's Intentions "And Jehovah spake unto Moses, Qo, get thee down; for thy people, that thou broughtest up out.of the Igypt,--have corrupted themselyes: they have turned aside quickly: out of the way which I commanded thém: they have made them a molten calf, and have wor- shipped it, and have sacrificed un- to it, and said, These are thy gods, 0 Israel, which brought thee up-« out of the land of Egypt." No mat- ter what excuse some might offer for thls crime the sinfulness of the act is clearly revealed in what God says about it. Our acts must "| be judged not by custom, nor by mere oxternal circumstances, nor * by what great men say is right and wrong, but by the.law of God, as It i8 revealed In His Word to us. "And Jehovah sald unto Moses, . I have seen this people, and, be- hold, it 1s stiff-necked people." - This word 'stiffnecked' is general: ly explained as 'obstinate,' but rather means 'perverse,' the meta- phor being taken from the horse that 'stiffens his neck against the pull of the rein, and will not be gulded by the rider. "Moses Pleads With God "Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may con- sume them: and I will make of thee a great nation." What the Lord told Moses to do Moses did not do; the Lord told him to let Him alone that He might destroy these people, though he would preserve Moses and make of him a great nation. It Is in an hour like this that Moses' undying love, true compassionate love for Israel, © bursts forth in one of the greatest Intercessory eplsodes to bo found anywhere in the Word of God: The offer to make, of Moses a great "HAtloNCAvAE tied ately, without hesitation, put aside by the great lawgiver; instead, he pleads that God might refrajn from destroy- ing these people in his wrath, God's Glory "And he hewed two tables of 1 like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morn- ing, and went up unto mount 8in- al, as Jehovah had commanded "tsi a tracer bullet, a" him, and took In his hand two tables of stone. And Jehovah de- scended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed tho name of Jehovah. And Jehovah passed by before him, and pro- claimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to ang- er, and abundant in lovingkind- ness and truth; keeping loving: kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, apd upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth gen- eration." In this brief phrase we have the entire historical narrative of the manifestation to Moses of God's glory, For details we must refer to the terms of the promise (33: . 21:23).. Moses was, no-doubt, -hid- den and protected by Ggd's hand in a 'cleft of the rock' while God's glory passed by. He was only al-* lowed to look out from his hiding- place after the glory had passed. In the act of pardoning His people and taking them once more into favor, God made known His the fatal misapprehension that He is a Boing of pure find mere bene - volence He. added a reference to His justice. He 'will by no means clear the guilty' (cf. Nahum 1: 3), and will 'visit iniquity to the third and fourth generation.' And Moses made haste, and bow- ed his head toward the earth, and worshipped. And he sald, It now I have found favor In thy sight, 0 Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in the midst of us; for it is a stift- necked people; and pardon our Iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance, Once again Moses .pleadg for the presence, and mercy of God, a prayer which God does not at this timo directly ans- wer in so many words or promises, but Indirectly answers by His ro "mewal of His covenant with Israel. The Final Word "And Jehovali said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel. And ho was there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink "water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments." On this second occasion of going forty days into seclusion with God uy !pajse] mosoly jv i R M1 perhaps jr] hat ho fasted on the first occasion. ~The writer of the ten words is-- shown to have been the Lord by Sxodus 34 verso 1. The 'words' which Moses has to write are, the _ matters connected with, this renew- Ing of the covenant--a record of the proceedings. All-Synthetic Tires + Not Around Corner One of the biggest of United States rubber tire companies Is publishing an advertisement giv- ing the facts about synthetic rub- ber tires, says the Ottawa Jour- pal; The story is not one to make _us cheer, Thus: . The first all-synthetic passenger *| car tires to be bullt on a produc- tion basis are only just now com- ing oft the lines in limited quantl- tles. No satisfactory all-synthetle truck tires have been built as yet by any one. No satisfactory all:synthetle tubes have been built as yet by any one. There will be very, very few new tires of all-synthetic rubber this year. 1t wil probably he the middle of next year before civillans can get the tires they need--even though there will be penty of raw synthe- tic rubber. ) Thus the position In the United States.
