Hence th» petition, "Thy kingdom come." Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, v. 10. Jesus wants us to pray for a new era when J istice will prevail, when kindness will find expression, when purity will triâ€" umph. From the highest spiritual aspiraâ€" tions the prayer suddenly drops to man‘s most common physical need, bread, v. 11. Jesus knew that grindâ€" ing poverty, as well as too much wealth, has soulâ€"destroying power. Hence the prayerâ€""enough for each day." Bread, not for me alone, nor for seme of us, but for all God‘s children. "Lead us not into temptation" (v. 13), is probably better rendered, "Let us not enter into temptation."

INTRODUCTIONâ€"How can I be a Christian in these complex and conâ€" fusing days* Only as I keep the thought of God vivid in my own life,. Therefore the Christian needs to pray and study the Bible. I. tn®E curtstian axp» mis PRAYING, , Matt. 6: 5â€"15, This passage occurs in that section of the Sermon on the Mount which contrasts the new piety with the old. Jesus refers to three types 6of prayer: (a) The "Bostor Audience" Prayer, v. 5. Jesus warns against making prayer a mere performance. The Jews had stated hours for prayerâ€"morning, noon, evening. Some were careful to be found in some conspicuous place, a erewded street corner, say, when the prayerâ€"hour struck. There, sure to be observed, they prayed. An enthusiâ€" acitic reporter once described a certain devotional effort as the "finest prayer ever delivered before a Boston audiâ€" ence." Such prayers get what they vant, publicity. "Reward" means "paid in full." Verce 6 commends that secret communion with God which was Jesus‘ own method. (b) The Mechanical Prayer, v. 7. "Vain repetitions‘"‘â€"a lot of talk with out much behind it. Prayer tends to become a series of conventional reâ€" quests and set phrases which we rattle off without sealizing their meaning, withont any serious attempt to live up to them. Is this the reason why so many Ssincere Christian folk never go to prayerâ€"meeting? Prayer is not o be merely a "want list." Our Father knows already v. 8. It is cultivating nis friendshipâ€" tuning in the radio of the soul to ctober 2. Lesson Iâ€"The Christian‘s Devotional Lifeâ€"Matthew 6: §â€"15; 2 Timothy 3: 14.17, Golden Textâ€" Grow in grace, and in knowledge of our Lord and Saviour â€" Jesus Chr‘st.â€"2 Peter 3: 18. MUTT AND JEFF: The performance of a new _ air liner designed for operation of the African air routes attracted much attention. This is a monoplane with accommodation for seventeen passenâ€" gers in a cabin said to be roomiecr than the most luxurious of Pullman rail cars. Driven by four airâ€"cooled engines totalling 1,360 horsepower, the new craft cruises easily at 120 miles per hour and is capable of a maxiâ€" mum velocity in level flight of more than 150 miles an hour. Marriage and Travel Boomed By Italian Fare Reduction married couples. It is announced that newlyweds of any nationality, married anywhere outside the territory of the Kingdom of Italy, will enjoy a special reduction of 70 pe. cent. from the Italian frontier to Rome and return. Ottawa.â€"Canadians drink more tea than coffee, in the proportion of four to three. Statistics show that the anâ€" nual per capita consumption in the Doâ€" minion is four pounds of tea ind three pounds of coffes, and use of both seems to be increasing steadily. But Canaâ€" dians still have a long way to go beâ€" fore they approach the enormous amount of tea consumed in the British Islss. There the per capita consumpâ€" t.on is eight pounds a year. Eig new night bombers showed their places in circuits of the airâ€" drome, flying at first slowly and later moving at full speed with thunderâ€" ous bellow of engines. One of the night bomber pilots made almost a complete circuit of the airdrome with hands held high above his head, not once touching the control lever 2s the big plane moved around. Some months ago the Ministry of Communications grarted Italian honâ€" eymooning couples, married anywhere The small singleseater aircraft, a" oi them capable of speeds in level flight considerably exceeding 200 miles an hour, were put through every aerian manoeuvre. One maâ€" chine made four consecutive upward spins with the tail pointing almost vertically toward the earth and still had sufficient power in hand to climb on to a level keel once more. Another climbed steeply for several seconds upâ€" side down and with the engine throtâ€" tle closed. And each was dived at speceds surpassing 350 miles an hour, falling vertically downward and flatâ€" tening out barely 100 feet above the airdrome. In sharp contrast the same planes were flown slowly across the flying field providing a demorâ€" stration of wide speed range and efâ€" ficient flying control. Rome.â€"Rome may soon become the honeymoon capital of the world as a c .~»quence of reductions granted by the Italian State Railroads to newly in Italy, 70 per cent. reductions for journeys to Rome and return. The experiment was highly successful. Even the Pope entered into the spirit of the thing and made a point of reâ€" cciving in audience all the couples who came to Rome on their honeymoon. Canadians Prefer In the aggregate the aircraft, aero engines and accessory equipment brought to the airdrome were worth nearly $2,500,000. Aggregate engine power of the thiryâ€"five airplanes was approximately 20,000 horsepower. Paris Is Steadily Replacing Trolley Cars With Buses Parisâ€"The ubiquitous trolley, a few years hence, will be a thing of the past in Paris. Its replacement by autobus is slowly but surely being effected. port companies watched at Hendor airdrome, near London, recently the demonstration of thirtyâ€"five different types of United Kingdom airplanes in the course of a display organized hy the Society of British Aircraft Conâ€" structors. Some fifty trolley lincs have been suspended during the past seven years by the Societe des Transports en Comâ€" mun. These lines served sections of the capital and the outlying districts. During the first half of this year five lines have been discarded for the more comfortable bus. There is no doubt that with the passing of the trolleys traffic regulation will be simpler, parâ€" ticularly around the Opera and St. Lazare districts and several others where buses and trollcys converge. Tea to Coffee , Contrary to a widespread impresâ€" sion that the Indian section of our population _ was steadily declining, comes a statement from the Departâ€" ment of Indian Affairs to the effect that the latest census shows an ac. tual increase of over 14,000 since the previous census ten years ago. We have usually had drawn for us a rather pathetic picture of the passâ€" ing of a raceâ€"a page turned down in the history of the land. In the United States, as an actual matter of fact, the Indian population is d>â€" creasing rapidly through intormar. rlage, But it seems that our more stimulating climate and> the fact that there is relatively little intorâ€" marriage here combine to perpetuat> the race. The care devoted to the welfare of all Indian communities in Canada is well known, and the Do partment may _ congratulate _ itself and stick another feather in its cap on the strength of the census return. The noble red man may have vanishâ€" ed as a historic figure from our midst, but his descandants are still virile and still maintain some of the best traditions of their ancestors.â€"Montâ€" real Daily Star! Small Japanese Industries ! ‘* That the smaller industrial eslahâ€" lishments in Japan have been more adversely affected during the last few years than the big concerns is inâ€" dicated by a report recently publishâ€" ed by the Japanese Bureau of Social Affairs showing an increase in the number of labor disputes from 2,289 in 1930 to 2,456 in 1931, but a deâ€" crease in the number of workers inâ€" volved from 191,805 to 154,528. In 998 cases the disputes developed into 864 strikes, seventyâ€"six lockouts and fiftyâ€"eight instances where the workâ€" ers stayed on the job, but did as litâ€" tle as possible. The principal causes of disputes were the discharge of workers, reductions of wages and deâ€" mands for discharge allowances, inâ€" creases of wages and the payment of wages in arrears. Of the 998 active disputes, 393 ended in failure for the workers,, 351 in compromise and 225 in favor of the workers‘ demands; 23 were reported unsettied, and in Six cases the outrome could not be ascortained.

The organization is known as "Sisterhood of the Plow" and the first camp, called "Gouliston Training Camp," boasts of eighteen girls who already are export plowwomen. They include former stenographers, school teachers, nurses, store clerks who had lost their positions. The camp is on a twentyâ€"acre farm, which the girls have cleared and preâ€" pared for cultivation. Each expects eventually to manage her own farm.

The children, the grocer discovered, had played store for some time in the school room, using a few old boxes and calling their "store" by the name that the grocer used. He conceived the idea of giving them a real, upâ€"toâ€"date store to play in and proceeded to build it in the school. He wrote uo manufacturers for empty â€" sample boxes of miniature editions of their products and stocked the small shelves in the usual way. No beauty dwells on earth Till eyes do give it birth; No rock, no stome, till a hand‘s touch bring concreteness; Fragrance, till breath be near; Music, till listening ear The size of a trout is not necessarâ€" ily a guide to its age, officials of the U.S,. Fish Division of the Dept. of Conservation say. This, they point out, is frequently proved in rearing stations where it often happens that trout raised from the same batch of fry will range in length from two to scven inches when the ponds are seinâ€" ed in September. A formal opening day was held when the store was completed and the parents of the children were invited to attend. Moving pictures were taken and candy favors distributed to the children. Each day during class the children are allowed to play "store" for one hour. A "manager" and his "assistâ€" ant" are chosen by the teacher, and the class buys groceries in the same manner in which they have seen their mothers buy at the rcal store. Ashtonâ€"Underâ€"Lyne, England.â€"The Chamber of Commerce here is apâ€" proaching cotton mill employers with a view to ending the practice of retail trading in mills in the Ashton district.

By Jan Struther in ‘London Spectator‘ Though God in seven days The world and all its ways Once for his own delight did fashion truly, Yet every man alive Must through his sonses five Create it newly, ) The explanation of this is that here and there an especially vigorous trout has managed to obtain a little more food than the others or to live near the head of the pond where the water is fresher and contains more living organism on which to feed. The smaller trout must content themselves with the artificial food given them by the station attendant, and, as a result, it is not long before they are in danger of being consumed by their brothers, who have grown to such a superior size. Miniature Store Built By Grocer for Children Draw forth its sweetness A word more pleasing? The Little World The Uncrowned Champ In return the Mother Country grants preferences to the products of Canada‘s farms and orchards. Canaâ€" cian produce has always been as good as any in the world. Now it should be cheaper than foreign produce. It is practical business to buy Canadian goods, See that the shops supply New Trade Opportunities (From "Canada".)

The production of creamery butter in Canada in 1931 amounted to 225,â€" 802,635 pounds valued at $50,168,738, the output in 1930 being 185,751,001 p unds with a value of $56,670,504. Ontario and Quebec ranked fair‘y close in volume of production in 1931, the former province producing 77,36¢,â€" 710 pounds and the latter 69,653,510 p« unds. Alberta ranked third among the provinces in regard to production w‘th 10 per cent. of the Dominion outâ€" put, and was followed in order by Minitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, British Columbia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. Ontario proâ€" duced 34 per cent. and Quebec 31 per cent. of the Dominion total. All the provinces showed increased output when compared with 1930. Creamery Butter Production Sets New High Recordâ€" Ontario Lead in Cheese Output The production of creamery butter in Canada last year established a new high record for the industry. The previous record had been set up in 1930, but even that figure was exceedâ€" ed last year by over 20 per cent. The cutput of factory cheese showed a deâ€" cline in 1931, but both cheese and butâ€" ter scored an advance in exports. On the other hand, imports of dairy proâ€" ducts, not normally high, sank to very low proportions. them Berlin, with 147 dailies, has more newspapers than the whole province of Pommern. The factory output of cheese in the Dominion for 1931 was 113,704,109 pounds valued at $12,796,616. In the previous year production was 119,â€" 105,203 pounds and the value $18,089,â€" 870. Ontario was the big producer among the provinces in 1931, her outâ€" put being 84,229,045 pounds or 74 per cent. of the total for Canada. Queber was second in importance with a proâ€" duction of 25,907,691 pounds. Ontario showed an increase over 1930 of nearly 3,000,000 pounds, but the Quebec outâ€" put fell off by a little over 8,000,008 pounds.
