Former Air Seehetary Predicts This Will Come Early

That nations within the British em- pire would ‘be -closély linked by air transportation systems within the near future was the opinion expressed by Lord Thomson, who was secretary of state for air in the British Labor Gov- ernment, in an interview at Toronto. Lord Thomson is a firm believer in airships particularly.

“I feel sure the time is coming when Canada will be- linked by air with the Motherland,” he said.

Canada should be an advantageous country for the development of com- mercial

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

JANUARY 17 JESUS AND NICODEMUS

Golden Text: God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosever believeth on Him should not perish, but have. eternal life. . John 3.16.

Lesson: John 3.1-17; °7.45-52;: 19.88- Devotional Reading: John. 3.31-36.

Explanations and Comments

Nicodemus Comes to Jesus, verses 1, 2.—Nicodemus was‘a Jew with a Greek name. He was a Pharisee, & member of that sect. which as -a rule appears in the Gospels as bigot: ed and hypocritical, and a ruler of the Jews, a member of the Sanhedrin) the council of seventy men who formed the Jewest Court of Justice. He ap- pears later as a defender of Jesus (Jn. 7.4552). After the crucifixion he brought myrrh and aloes for the, embalming of Christ’s body. It was at night that Nicodemus made his famous visit to Jesus.. He was cau- tious, and probably did not wish to endanger his reputation by being seen visiting the new Rabbi. (We are told later that some even of the Sanhedrin believed in Jesus, but did not dare let it be known lest they be put ott’ of the Synagogue, Jn. 12,42.) ~

“Rabbi,” said Nicodemus, “we know that thou art a teacher- come from God; for no one can do these signs that thou doest, except God be with him.” Nicodemus-was convinced that Jesus was a divinely-commissioned Teacher, that Jesus’ teaching was divinely authenicated by his miracles, and he came to hear what Jesus had to teach,

Sun Spots, May Not Affect Weather Experts at the Toronto meteorologi- cal office doubt very much if the spots on the sun have any effect on the weather, W. E. Jackson, local as- tronomical expert, said he was look- ing at the sun and saw two magnifi- cent groups of sun spots. “You could drop the earth into the corner of eith- er one of them,” he declared. There

were 54 spots in one group alone. He}:

said that it had not been definitely de- cided what influence, if any, the sun spots had on weather ‘changes.

Wild currants and raspberries were ripen- ing, and Baree was fond of these,’ He also liked the bitter berries of the mountain ash, which, along with the soft balsam and spruce pitch which he licked with his*tongue now and then, were good medicine for him. In shal- low .water he occasionally caught a fish; now and them he hazarded a cau- tious battle witH a porcupine, and if lie Was successful he feasted om the], tenderest and most luscious of all the flesh that made up his menu.

In October he wandered as far west as the Geikie River, and then north- ward to: Wollaston Lake, which was a good hundred miles north of the Gray Loon. The first week in November he turned south again; following the Canoe River for a distance, and then swinging westward along a twist creek called the Little Black Bear With No Tail. More than once during these weeks Baree came into touch with man, but, with the exception of the Cree hunter at the upper end of Wol- laston Lake, no man had seen him. Three times in following the Geikie he lay crouched in the bush while canoes passed; half a dozen times, in the stillness *of night, he nosed about ¢cabins and tepees in which there was life, ‘and once he came so near to the Hudson's Bay Company post at Wol- laston tha the could hear the barking of dogs and ‘the “shouting of their masters. And always he was- seck- ing—questing for the thing that had gone out of his life. _

GUARD THE BABY - AGAINST COLDS

By Keeping Baby’s Own Tablets in the House at All Times

To guard the baby against colds nothing can equal Baby’s Own Tablets. The Tablets are a mild laxative that will keep the little one’s stomach and bowels working regularly. It is a recognized fact that where the stom- ach and bowels are in geed order that colds will not exist; that thé health of the little one will.be good and that he will thrive and be happy.

Thousands of mothers have become convinced. through the actual use of the Tablets that there is nothing to equal them in banishing constipation and indigestion; breaking up colds and simple fevers; expelling. worms. and maki eething tinte-easy. Among the thousands who praise Baby’s Own Tablets is Mrs. Alex, J, Perry, Altan- tic, N.S., who says:—“I always keep Baby’s Own Tablets in the house as I know of no other medicine for little ones to equal them.”

New Fabric Is Invented By a Noted London Designer

London and Paris shortly will see an entirely new fabric created by a noted London designer. Its exact composi- tion has been kept a secret but it is known that ostrich feathers pluck- ed from the quills and specially treat- ed and’woven are the basis of it.

The eloth is lighter than thistle down and softer than the finest crepe de chine, ‘and it displays a different pattern from every angle, Thous- ands of yards"of the material are. be- ing made. So striking is the cloth that the manufacturers. say they ex- pect it to be. ali the rage in the West End ballrooms this winter. °
