Many other uses will cuggest themselves, Valve timing is usually stated in degrees ahead of past dead centre. While this is perhaps the most ac- curate method, In the ‘average re- pair sh op the degrees are converted into inches of piston -trave}! For example, to say that the valve opens certaln number of degrees past dead centre, will be taken to mean that the p'ston has already travelled f certain distance on ita down stroke On cars having an exposed fivwhee!l ft is very simple to work to degrees marked on the cirewm- ference, but where the flywheel {s enclosed the method of timing by piston travel is generally used. simpler method is to work from the cheeks of thé crankshaft, Provided of course that they are Straight.

This is greatly simplified if two people do the work. Some dif- ficulty is usually experienced when compressing the spring. There are special tools for this purpose, though a strong acrewdrlyer can ibe used for a lever, and a block of wood Placed conveniently for a fulcrum. When ralsing the spring, the valve usually adheres to the cup washers, This must be prevented by pressing the head with the wooden handle of a hammer. Another method ts to place some packing material cn top of the valve, and with finger pres- sure screw the valve cap down on it, being careful that nothing falls onto the piston. To replace the valve after grinding it, it must be dropped into Its guide, having previously placed the spring and washer in position, and then the spring can be compressed once more in order to insert the Cotter.

(Eph. 2:10.) _ b Paul's minisyy in Ephesus waa one of the most remarkable parts of his lifework. It was bold; uncom- promising as always, and secur tinued for three years that it hecame a strategle achievement In the evan- gelization of the Roman Province of 51 a. It was marked by clear doctrinal teaching, it reached both Gentiles, it included systematic was signalized by §pec'al m les, it confronted and defeated the evil spirit world, it won sincere Christian converts from among the leaders of false cults, and it culminated tn a city-wide attack upon Christianity by a leading re- ligious and business Interest. Further, Paul's. founding and building up of the church at Eph- esus resulted in his writing, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, one of the richest of all the rich New Testament Epistles—to the Eph- esians. We should be impoverished indeed if that letter were not In the Scriptures, There is a good deal of confusion today as to what is called the bapt- ism of the Holy Spirit. The first verses of our lesson chapter throw light on this, if we are careful to en in the . Paul found certain disciples at Ephesus, and asked them, “Did ye receive the norant of the Holy Spirit, he dis- covered that they had gone no far- ther, spiritually, than “John's Bapt- ism’"—that is, the call of John the Baptist to repent of sin. - Then Paul told them abopt believing on Christ Jesus; they did so, and “were bapt- ized Inte the name of the Lor Jesus," and, “when Paul had lald his hands upon them, Holy Spirit came on them.” In other words, it {s plain that the Holy Ghost {s given to every one by faith In Christ ga Saviour, not as a special gift-or experience to certain Christian believers at some - time subsequent to thelr conversion and & new birth. Bit believers need to yield. whelly to the Lord if they would be filled with the Spirit, If by sin of any sort thev grieve or quench the Holy they need to be filled again, by con- fessing their sin te God and then trusting Him for Hls fulness. “One baptism, many fillings.” Paul gave the Gospel and other Scriptural truth so clearly, directly w:th such inténse personal ap- Dif{cation that men could not be in- itferent; elther they accepted they openly oppogea PAULIN EPHESUS faa he well 3 were as posi- pable as this. When Paul found certain people thorough- nis he wasted no time t with him, teaching service “in the school or ene Tyrannus.” Preaching Is not enough; teaching also is Our Lord aud the apostles did both. It is significant that, in the midst. of this testimony and teaching, “God such a tremendous hearing as jt con-! wrought spec miracles . by the ‘hands of Paul.” Not merely mira- | cles, wonderful and ‘supernatural jas those are, but special miracles. 1 must-have .been asistonnding. | They” ; : | Indeed, we read that when handker- |- ews and) chiefs or aprons were taken from Paul's body and carried to the s'ck they were healed of their diseases, and evil spirits were cast out oz But when certain “vaga- hond Jews, exorcists,” attempted to imitate Paul an cast. out evil spirits by naming the name of. the Lord Jesus, they got into trouble. An eyll spirit, with the cry, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?" forced the man — whose body he was possessing to’ Id¢ap upon these Jews, attack them, and overcome them, till they “fled ont or that house ed and wbunded.” Let us have no doubt the fact of demon possession. It is recorded over and over again in the Scriptures. All this was tremendous ‘adver- tising" for the Gospel; it. challenged thinking -people; . Yeltey plied, open confessions. were made, sins were repented of and abandon- ed. Even priests or ministers of false. Teligions brought their evil books to a public place and burned them; the value of the volumes de- stroyed was fifty thousand. pleces of silver. Men cannot say that true evangelism falls to have practical results, Finally the business of the siflver- smiths who made silver shrines for Diana, the pagan goddess whose famous temple was in Ephesus, were aroused to opposition as one of their craftsmen called them together and told them their business and wealth were being threatened by Paul and his preaching, and that the temple ‘umd pre-eminence of goddess | Diana were in danger of coming into disrepute !

These flowers are not only beautiful in the bed, but they make exceptional cut flowers, for they have excellent lasting qualities their variety of colors lend them- selves to the choicest decorative ef- p i=] a =| Usually when old clumps are transplanted, the follaga dies, and new shoots spring up. To hasten this the follage may be cut back so that ‘the new shoots will have a bet- ter chance. When the plants hava ceased to bloom, the foliage will con- tinue to beautify the garden, if the plot is kept weeded and watered. Columbine planta should be set vut In the garden now, that they may establish their root systems’ suffic- lently to prevent heaving during the winter. For those who enjoy raising their own plants from seeds, this ig a g00d time to sow them. The best plan is to-use a coldframe. Prepare the soil In the frame so that Kt Ia very fins and then plant the seede after the bed has been watered. Over the seeds sprinkle a light covering of sand or peat moss not more than an eighth of an inch thick. this covering down firmly with a board, Over the soll a covering of burlap may be placed and it, too, watered. This will help to retain the moisture. Do not at any time allow place.a lath screen over the top of the frame to help shade it, and thus help keep the moisture. About the twelfth or fifteenth day after -sow- (ng. the beds should be watched for germinating seeds. If a fairly good etand {s evident, remove the burlap, and watch the beds carefully for moisture. Keep the seedlings well supplied with walter.

Indian Summer occurs in the fall and may last two or three weeks; Indian Days occur in July and are only three in number; but, for those for whom they. are named, there is more rea! pleasure crowded into that shent time than they experience during the| post other three hundred and sixty-two. days of the year. For three days the Indian is “King of Banff", He. pitches his tepees under the steep cliffs of Cas- cade Mountain, known to the Indians from anc ; days as “Stoney Chief”. Close to “Stoney Chief” and still known by its original name stands Stoney Squaw”. Theclatter is a pretty mountain; much smaller than its neighbour, but with an ling feminine dignity all its own.
