The barber made several slips with his razor, and each tlme he would paste a small piece ot paper over the out to stop the bleeding. When the operation was over the victim handed the man halt a crown. "Keep the change, barber," he Said. "it's worth halt a. crown to be shaved by so versatile an artist. Why, you're a barber, butcher, and paperhanger all in one." There is a greatly mistaken idea that making a record or having a song recorded is the "open Sesame" to fame and fortune. But the truth of it is that a song is never record- ed until it has been accepted by a publisher, and then one record would bring the composer or author only from ten to tttteen pounds (850 to 375). The unknown singer or player is lucky to receive at the be. ginning five to ten on a basis (it he is lucky) of six records a year. So many records have been spoil- ed by artists not waiting for the "All Clear" signal at the finish, that the recording operator is constantly on his guard against it. One humus operatic star had great difficulty with the last bars on one ot his selec- tions. They tried it several times, but never seemed able to make a success ot those last few bars. Fin- ally, when they were almost willing to give up, the opera singer decided he would try it just once more. He sang it marvelously. The studio manager was in ecstacles. Then, before the recording operator had time to lift the point from the wax, he heard, forever engraved on the last grooves, "Thank God, that's over. I couldn't make a better one it I tried for years." i Today any music, speech or sound incoustlc (or "horn") recording ot 1 six or seven years Mo. mar be successfully recorded, even in the open alr. But in spite of the expert knowledge gained in the last few years, it is still impossible to predict recording success in the case of a singer The quality, or tim, bre, ot the voice may sound quite different on the wax. The svience of recording, to what. ever height ot perfection it may be brought, will never be without its occasional humorous moments. m the final analysis the whole thing rests on the personal element invol- ved, and the very human nature ot; the work brings about many very; amusing incidents. l Records are made at successful shows at the theatres. Many ot the London theatres have proved to be excellent studios. But in spite ot the tact that theatre recording has become an accepted thing, it always seems strange to see famous thea- trical stars singing away on the stage in an empty theatre--not to crowded stalls, but to a little black box on a pedestal. Electricity has brought almost limitless possibilities into the tuid ot recording outside the studio. Animals at the Zoo, New Year's Eve at St. Paul's, Beatrice Harrison and her famous nightingales, the King’s speech at some opening, the Trooping ot the Colors-alt these would hare been unattainable by the The room in lone and high.

Unrepentant, they are not fit for the Christian brotherhood. J uat 'as the wind is known only by its ef- ifects. said Jesus (v. 8). so the pres- lence of the Spirit is recognized by the lchanged character ot a man. The per- isistent incredulity of Nicodemus (v. ' 12) convinced Jesus that nothing was to be gained by continuing the con- versation. John has now finished With Nicodemus. and dismisses him. He l 'lfllt on with his discourse on God's! ' i t. in him will be in us also, changing our characters and our attitudes. We shall become so different from our old self-considering selves-actually liv- ing a new life-that we can be spoken of as having been "re-born," "born from above." Jesus shattered this complacency with one sentence, "Exeept a man be born -gain he cannot see the kingdom of God," v. s. As mere physical birth does not make one a real Canadian, 1i ing up to the high ideals of Cana- dian citizenship, neither did his Jew- ish birth make Nicodemus a member of the new kingdom. A spiritual as well as a physical qualification was necessary. To be a member of the kingdom of love and brotherhood. one had to be loving and brotherly. The Pharisees' religion was not love, out law. Jesus, in speaking of a new birth, borrowed his figure from the religious and political language of his day. A pagan, upon embracing the Jewish religion, was said to be "re- born" in the new faith. The same term was used in the mystery religions which flourished in Ephesus where, John was writing his Gospel. To bel “Lon again" is not to experience some magical change; it is to commit our- selves so unreservedly to the Jesus way .ot livingthut the spirit that was Jesus never wasted his time on sham. With Nicodemus he went at once to the heart of things. Nicodemus and his associates were concerned strut this new preacher's possible connection with the Messianic king- dom. Their own fitness for that kine- dom was taken for granted. Were they not orthodox children of Abra- ham? They connected Jesus with the kingdom because they saw external "signs." But the trath of his utter- ances had not gripped them. l Be came to Jesus by night (v, 2) perhaps because he did not wish to compromise either himself or his bro. ther Pharisees until he was sure of this new movement. He began with a diplomatic. if somewhat patronizing, speech. He has been accused of cow- ardice, but surely. unfairly. If it-was by night that he came. at least he eame--to learn for himself. It is true that he defended Jesus without 'ex- p; 'h' aim: any personal interest in him. but he defended him. He was sat'ss fied with his own religion, but he was open-minded enough to seek further' knowledge. , II. AN UNHEARD-OF' CONDITION, 3: 3-111 Nicodemus. a member of the San- hedrin, is taken as an example of that imperfect faith. He knew about Jesus. The tremendous influence and the nor- sonality of the young preacher had ap- ‘pealed to him. He may have had 1hopes of persuading him to give up his revolutionary theories and asso- ciate himself with the regularly organized channels of religion. He would be lea: dangerous there. So the Roman Catholics thought about Fran-) cia of Assisi. Nicodemus was not the "anxious enquirer." He came to dis- cover whether he could come to some understanding with this popular young preaches which would keep the Pharisees still in their loved position oUflitrious leadership. _ _ The slaughter ot the animals wu necessary because there in only sut- tlclent pasturage within the park to teed about 6,000 head of buthuo and also in order to maintain the quality ot the stock, says the bulletin.

If our deeds are evil, we shun the light because it shows up our true character. The man who has nothing to hide welcomes the investigation. He who avoids the light thereby proclaims that his deeds are evil. The Jews thought Messiah was com- ing to punish the unbelievers. But it judgment is not the motive of the Christ's coming, it is the inevitable consequence. His coming compels men to take s'des. The stand they take tshyys they up in their true colors.

"Be.. lieveth" here is not an intellectual; assent to a creed. It is a personal) loyalty and devotion to a person. To be "saveu," to "have eternal life," and "to be like Jesus" means the same thing.
