Unseen in the background, God was shaping t c most unlikely chain of events in order to preserve the child, and to 5t him for the day of deliverance. The daughter of the Pharaoh, attended by her ladiesâ€"inâ€"waiting, came down to the riverâ€"bank at just the spot where the little basketâ€"boat lay floating amâ€" ong the rushes.

Golden Textâ€" Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.â€"Proverbs 22: 6. Moses was born at a time when his life was in deadly poril of being forâ€" feit to the frenzy cf the Pharaoh. There seemed, on all human reckonâ€" ing, little hope that he would escape the general oxtermination. At first his mother hid him, until the growing power of his lungs made concealment no longer possible. A mother‘s _ove usually sharpens ber wits and makes her resourceful; but Moses‘ mother was utterly baffied. There was noâ€" thing more she could doâ€"nothing but commit him to the hindly providence of God. To show that the life of her child was beyond hes power and solely in the hand of God, she set him out. or exposed him, on that same river in which Pharaoh had decreed thai the Hebrew baby boys should be 28 Pueblo ruings common in New Mexico and Arizona.

The previous year ships totaled 278 and the customs receipt $2,700,000. Thoughts The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it. a cwuple of delightful touches. The princess was induced by Moses‘ sister to employ a Hebrew nurse; and the nurse procured was none other than the chila‘s mother! In the good proviâ€" dence of God the mother not only had her child restored to her, but she was actually given wages for nursing her own child by the daughter of the Pharaoch who had decreed that the child should perish! Then, too, there is grim humor in the fact that Muses, _ a _ Hebrew child, _ was brought to live in the palace of the Pharaoh. Through the mysteriâ€" ous providence of God, Pharach, who had decreed the extermination of the Hebrews, was really sheltering one who was to be their deliverer under Cod. The child was obviously givon an Egyptian name. The word "Moses" means in the Egyptian language "son": it occurs frequently in comâ€" pounds _ namesâ€"Thutmoses, _ Ram (o)ses. It sounded similar, howeves, to the Hebrew word for "removed" or "drawn," and was thus understood among the Hebrews. III. tnE cHipn‘s EDUCATION, Acts 7: 20â€"22. The education of Moses in the lore of th: Egyptians became a matter of elaborate speculation among _ later Jews like Philo of Alexandria,. In his address Stephen b=iefly alludes to it. The Egyptologist, Erman, points out that a good Egyptiar education comâ€" prised such things as "moral duties ard good manners, reading. writing, composition and arithmetic," but also such undesirable items as "mythology, astrclogy, magic and superstitions practices in medicine." Doubtless the education Moses received gave him a breadth of view, but much that he had learned in Egypt had to be unlearned before he could become the leader of God‘s people. Losses From Sinking Logs The sinking of logs while being floated to the sawmill is responsible for a considerable annual loss to Canâ€" ada‘s lumber and pulp industries. In a recent year the loss of logs in that industry attributable to the cause just mentioned was estimated to amount to 225,000 cords, valued at about 2.â€" 700,000.
