(See Josh. 1: 6, 7.) It is quite remarkable to notice here, as in verse 21, that the fathers of Israel, who were now dead, are mentioned as those whom God promâ€" ised would some day possess the land of Canaan, and, as an ancient Jewish commentator says: "Hence we find the resurrection of the dead taught in he of m is "Vor the land, whither thou goest #&!~ possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and watâ€" eredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs." "But the land, whither ye go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven."

Moreover, the land of Goshen, in which Israel lived throughout the centuries of her sojourn in Egypt, is called "the best of the land" (Gen. 47: 6). Yet Israel was to have a more wonderfully ferâ€" tile ‘and than even Egypt, for, whereâ€" as the fertility of Egypt depended upâ€" on the annual overflow of the Nile River, the fertility of Palestine was dependent upon rain from heaven. "A land which Jehovah thy God careth for: thé eyes of Jehovah thy God are always upon it, from the beâ€" ginning of the year even unto the end of the year." It is difficult not to think of the better land in this desâ€" cription, and of our Saviour‘s promâ€" ise, "I go to prepare a place for you." There "the poor and needy" shall not "seek water," for "he shall lead them to living fountaings of water." "They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more." "Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse." "The blessing, if ye shall hearken unto the commandâ€" ments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day." We cannot but think of two other occasions in Israel‘s history when similar opporâ€" tunities for choosing right from wrong were presented to her. In this very same year, at the end of his life, his voice vibrating with love, and longing for their welfare, Moses said to the children of Israel: "See, I have set beâ€" fore thee this day, life and good, and death and evil; in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest in to possess it . . . I call heaven and earth to witâ€" ness against you this day that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse: _ therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed" (Deut. 30: 15, 16, 19). Less than a quarter of a century later, as Israel had come into the Land of Promise, Joshua, in his farewell address, once more pleaded with the people to make a definite, deliberate choice of Giod and of good. "And the curse, if ye shall not hearâ€" ken unto the commandments of Jeâ€" hovah your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known." To choose to obey the commandments of God does not have negative results, but positive reâ€" gults. "And it shall come to pass, when Jehovah thy God shall bring thee inâ€" to the land whither thou goest to possâ€" ess it, that thou shalt set the blessing upon Mount Gerizim, and the curse upon Mount Ebal."

"For ye are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein." "In the place of Shechem by the oak of Moreh, the Lord had appeared to Abraham and promised him this very land of Palestine. It is the first reâ€" corded promise given to the patriarch that his seed should inherit that parâ€" ticular country."â€"(Cf, Deut. 4: 5, 6.) and northern sides, respectively, of the narrow pass which cuts through the mountain range, opening a way from the sea to the Jordan, about 35 miles north of Jerusalem, at the city of Cychar, and near the city of Samâ€" aria. At the foot of Mount Gerizim lies the town of Nablus, the ancient city of Shechem. Here Abraham camped at the oak of Moreh (Gen. 12: 6). The Samaritans believe that it was on this mountain that Abraham prepared to offer his son Isaac in sacâ€" rifice. These are the two sacred mountains of the Samaritans. The word Arabah refers to that porâ€" tion of the land or the west side of the Jordan River stretching out beâ€" fore the eyes of the Israelites who were encamped on the hills of Moab, or, in other words, southwestern Palâ€" estine.

By way of Indian runrer and pony express: word has reached us from Huntington, Calif., that a band of hardy pioneers actually have organâ€" ized a society for the suppression of swing music. And the natme of this outfit very appropriately, is The Society for the Suppression of Swing . . . This Huntington group has disâ€" tributed circulars and has embarked upon an intensive mail campaign summoning all true musie lovers to enlist under their banner. "Swing," say the members of this hardy group of pioneers, "is a scurrilous craze completely misrepresenting present: day civilization and distorting the musical tastes of the younger generâ€" ation.‘" Maybe there‘s something in what our friend says. At any rate, down in Newport, RI., the town fathers haven‘t any use for swing music. They have ruled that the taverns must not allow swing music to be played. The classics, however, are O.K. Just about the best judges of swing music, one would think, are the dance orchestra leaders themâ€" selves.> Hal Kemp says: "There are still lots of swing addicts who never tire of this type of syncopation. It looks as though they never will, either." Then, there‘s Don Bestor: "According to my observations," says Don, "swing definitely is on the skids, Most people prefer sweet music." And then there is the No. 1 orchestra leader who played at our Exhibition, Guy Lombardo, and his say is short but straight to the point: "Sorry but we can‘t see swing at all." And that is that. But Mark Warnow says: "It will never die out completely; its popularity will come in cycles." So that is that, again; so we will let you readers be the judge; some like it; others don‘t, but at the present its having its "swing" and, like all other forms, we think will soon be discarded for some other brand which will be made popular when a new form of dance comes into vogue. . .. tically all arrangements have been completed between Maple Leaf Garâ€" dens and broadcasting officials for the airing of descriptions of all sports activities for this coming winâ€" ter . . .

A few woeks after, it became Buckingham Palace, the oficial town residence of ‘the Monarch. James‘ scheme was a failare and the house was leased by Goring and called "Goring House." Once Destroysd By Fire It was leased by the Earl of Arâ€" lington from the Crown in 1672. The house was destroyed by fire and "Arâ€" lington House" was built, This beâ€" came the property of the Earl of Grafâ€" ton and eventually passed to the E€arl of Musgrave, later to be the Duke of Buckingham, who added winys which oxist to a large extent today. Goorge 111 and Queen â€" Charlotte lived at Ruckingham House as it then was, forming the nucleus of the art picces which Queen Mary has done so much to preserve. Buckingham Palace has hbad a roâ€" mantic history. It owes its existonce to Csorge IV, whe, on finding the Royal recidonce of his time too small and inconvenient, decided to erev‘s a home fitting the dignity of a Bsush Sovercign. Several sites were suggested, but he insisted that the most suitable was Buckingham House and its grounds, then a mulberry tree gardon founded by James 1 in the hopes of cresting a flourishing silk industry in Engâ€" land. % When the property came to George IV alterations and improvements were begun, and the King was frequently at odds with his exchequer over funds. At the time of his death $3,250,000 had been spent, and during the reign of William IV another $500,000 was nocessary to improve the building. William died before the work on the house was completed, and . so Queen Victoria became the first Sovâ€" ereign to live at the place in its new phase as State residence.

He blamed freakâ€" ish weather conditions, borne of sunâ€" spots, for the "tragedy."
