Long Flight of Tern
Made Official Record
From northern Michigan to Peru,
South America, in nine months Is
the record of a common tern re
ported at a recent meeting of the
Inland Bird Banding association in
Chicago. Official records show that
the tern was banded at Lone Tree
Island, near Sebewaing, Mich., on
July 11, 1931, and in less than nine
months had turned up at Trujillo,
Peru, 500 miles south of the equator.
E. R. Ford, secretary of the asso
ciation, has expressed the belief that
this is the farthest soutli recovery
ever made of a bird banded in North
America.
The tern in question was banded
by a graduate student at University
of Michigan. Both sender and find
er made reports to the bureau of
biological survey at Washington, so
that the identity of the bird could be
traced.
To make Children
EAT
Don't force children to eat! The
girl or boy who has no appetite has
stasis —which means the child is
sluggish. But cathartics have caused
more constipation than they ever
cured! The “California treatment”
Is best—just pure syrup of figs. Try
this for a few days, then see how
eagerly your youngster will eat.
Stimulate the colon and that child
with a finicky appetite will devour
everything set before him. Here's
the simple treatment that does more
for babies or older children than all
the diets, fad foods, or tonics.
Nature has provided tho “medi
cine” you’ll need to stir your child's
colon muscles into proper action.
California syrup of figs. Pure, de
licious, harmless. I* acts on the
lower colon—where the trouble is.
It has no ill effects on the intestines.
Begin tonight, with this marvel
ous “California treatment.” Any
druggist has California syrup of
figs, all bottled, with directions. Use
enough the first time to cleanse the
clogged colon of every bit of poison
and hard waste. Then just a little
twice a week until the child's appe
tite, color, weight and spirits tell
you the stasis is gone. Whenever a
cold or other upset clogs the system
again, use this natural vegetable
laxative instead of drastic drugs.
WARNING! There are dealers
who practice substitution. Be sure to
protect your child by looking for the
name CALIFORNIA, on the bottle.
Blemishes on Face
and Shoulders
Almost a Year
Cuticura Healed
"For almost a year I was troubled
with blemishes that took the form
of pimples and blackheads. My face
and shoulders were the affected parts.
The pimples were large and red and
my shoulders became sore from the
rubbing of my shoulder straps. The
pimples itched and after scratching
them they festered and were so sore
that I could not sleep.
"People suggested many remedies;
I tried all but to no avail. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment were suggested
and I was completely healed, after
using three cakes of Cuticura Soap
and two boxes of Cuticura Ointment.”

Canada’s name be changed from Do

called “kingdom” originally, but “fear

prevented.”
Canadians fear nothing, ns the old
Cauls told Alexander the Great, “ex

And they certainly need not fear

seem rather silly, however, for a free

ROOSEVELT CALLS
GOVERNORS’ MEET
Asks AH of Them to Confer
With Him March 6.
New York.—President-Elect Frank
lin D. Roosevelt has invited the gov
ernors of the 48 states to confer with
him at the White House on March 6,
two days after his inauguration, to
discuss ways and means of solving
national problems in which the gov
ernments of the states and the nation
have a common vital interest.
in a letter to the governors Mr.
Roosevelt outlined five major subjects
which he felt should be considered
and jointly solved by the nation and
the states.
“Because so many governors will
be in Washington on March 4th,” the
letter says, "I want to take that op
portunity of holding a conference in
relation to a number of matters in
which the federal government and the
state governments are mutually inter
ested. For that reason I want to in
vite you to come to the White House
on Monday. March 6th, at II :00 a. m.,
to attend an informal conference.
"It is my thought that we should
discuss for our mutual benefit certain
subjects, such as:
"(a) Conflicting taxation by federal
and state governments:
"(b) Federal aid for unemployment
relief;
“(c) Mortgage foreclosures, especial
ly on farm lands, and
"(d) Better land use by afforesta
tion. elimination of marginal agricul
tural land, flood prevention, etc.;
“(e) Reorganization and consolida
tion of local government to decrease
tax costs.
“It is possible that other subjects
will occur to the governors or to me
as being essential for discussion.
“I do not believe that more than
one day will be required for this in
formal meeting. But it will give me
the opportunity of having the pleasure
of meeting many of the chief execu
tives of the states. I hope much that
you will be able not only to come to
the inauguration, but also to stay over
through Monday for this meeting at
the White House."
Little doubt was expressed here that
all, or nearly al), of the 48 governors
will avail themselves of tho President-
Elect’s invitation. All but 10 of the
governors at present are Democrats, it
was pointed out, and are expected to
be in Washington for the inaugural
ceremonies.

4G—The Spread of Christianity.
I. The Parable of the Candle (vv.
21-25).
The Word which is sown in the par
able of the Sower (vv. 1-20) Is not
only to bear fruit, but to shine forth
in testimony. This obligation Is en
forced by a solemn command and
warning. “Take heed what ye hear”
(v. 24) means that there should not
only be attention to what is taught,
but whole hearted reception of it.
11. The Parable of the Growing
Grain (vv. 26-2!)).
This parable is peculiar to Mark.
In the light of the purpose of Mark,
it is clear why it should appear here.
It Is the parable for the servant In
tb<» previous parables (vv. 24-25, cf.
vv. I 21), the responsibility of the
hearer is set forth. The responsibility
here is that which devolves upon the
servant who proclaims the message.
1. The attitude of mind of the gos
pel preacher (vv. 26, 27). He should
with the utmost fidelity “cast seed
Into the ground,” preach the Word,
and leave the results with God. The
spiritual processes of God’s Word in
the soul of man are shrouded In the
deepest mystery. The seed should
"spring and grow up, he knoweth not
how" (v. 27). When the sowing has
been intelligently and faithfully done,
the sower should not be burdened
with anxiety. He can “sleep and rise
night and day." confident that the Al
mighty will take care of the processes
and results.
2. The processes of the spiritual
life are gradual (v. 28). “First the
blade, then the ear, after that the full
corn In the ear.” We should not ex
pect maturity of Christian character
at once any more than the farmer
should expect the crops to mature at
Once. The farmer has a time of sow
ing, of growing, and of harvest
3. The consummation of the spir
itual processes (v. 29). Though the
sowing of the seed be done under dif
ficulties and the processes of develop
ment long drawn out, the harvest will
surely come.
HI. The Parable of the Mustard
Seed (vv. 30-34).
In this parable the plant with its
great branches, called a tree in Mat
thew 13:32, which springs out of the
small seed, exhibits the Kingdom In
its mystery form, Matthew 13:11. It
shows the condition of tilings in the
world in the interval between Christ’s
going away and his coming again. In
this parable three things claim our
attention.
1. The unimportant beginning (v.
31). It begins as tile least of all seeds
but grows to be the greatest among
herbs. The parentage and humble cir
cumstances of Jesus greatly per
plexed the people. That twelve unlet
tered men, most of them fishermen,
should be selected as his royal ad
visors was still more amazing. The
prophet had said of him Unit be would
be despised, rejected, forsaken, cut
off, having nothing.
2, The vigorous growth (v. 32).
From the very beginning of the move
ment inaugurated by Christ his Influ
ence has gone forth so that there Is
no power or influence today in the
earth so great as that which calls it
self Christian.
3. The lodging capacity. The birds
which find lodgment in the branches
flo not represent, as is commonly In
terpreted, the children of men who
find safety and salvation in the
church, because church truth is not
now under consideration. It Is the
mystery of the Kingdom which was
proclaimed as at hand by John the
Baptist. This Kingdom passed into
abeyance when Jesus was crucified
and It shall come Into realization
when Jesus comes back to earth
again. The believer in Christ becomes
a vital part of bls body and even is
necessary to its strength and fruitful
ness. The bird in the branches is
something foreign to and independent
of the tree. The branches increase
the growth of the tree but birds are
Injurious and burdensome to It. They
are predatory —wafting to pluck off
the tender buds or to prey upon the
ripened fruit. The effect of such lodg
ing is evil and blighting to the tree.
Love
Love Is known by its gifts, not by Its
receipts. "God so loved the world,
that he gave his only-begotten Son."
God loved: he gave. If we love, we
will give. Christ said. ”Ts ye love me,
keep my commandments." Then If
we love him, we will demonstrate our
love primarily by obeying him. And
when we obey him, we will fully real
ize the meaning of giving because we
will be anxious to tell others of Christ,
only by obedience and self-sacrifice
can we walk in his steps.
