Sunday School Lesson
By
Rev. Hugh T. Stevenson.

not know the result of their catch until
the net had been pulled in on the shore,
or at least In shallow water, where
they could cast out that part Of the
catch which was of no value. Just as
there was q separating, binding and
burning of the tares, teaching the pun
ishment of the Judgment, so here in
this parable we learn that we must
wait until the end of this age to deter
mine the real value of ones life.
Jesus gave them an examination
concerning the meaning of the seven
parallels that Matthew grouped In this
chapter. He gave them private in
depreciation of the meaning of the one
we considered last week and also Of
the tares, which was the most din
cult for them to grasp and also a
partial Interpretation of the dragnet.
The other four were short and very
easily understood. When they assured
Him that they understood their mean
ing, He pointed out that they had a
duty to pass on the instruction they
had obtained unto others. The COM
prehension Of these parallels by US is
a call to service as fishers of men.
Christ had by this series Of parallels
impressed upon His disciples the
spiritual character of the kingdom Of
God. He had taught them the process,
progress and power of its development.
He called upon them to be prepared
to make any sacrifices necessary to
pass on His gospel without spot or blem-
ish to men. 4 Jesus prepared them for
the period Of rejection that He was
about to face. He furnished them the
fundamental knowledge concerning the
value OF Christianity to the world that
ought to have encouraged them and
inspire us to be faithful to our Lord
at all times and in every way seek
first the kingdom of God.

A. When st. John commands Us to
"T owe not the world" we have to know
what was in the apostles mind. Surely
he could not have meant the visible
universe. for this is registration OF
Divine power and wisdom. 1t reflects
the Creators love Of order, beauty and
usefulness Nor did the apostle mean
that the arts and sciences are outcast.

HEAVY SPRINKLINGS
BEST FOR LAWNS.

The right way to water lawn is to
give it a thorough soaking at each
application, says L. E. Longley, land
Scape specialist of the division of
horticulture, University Farm. FIRE.
quent and shallow sprinkling causes
the grass roots to grow near the sur
face which is exactly what they should
not do, particularly in time of drouth.
Enough water should be applied to
soak the ground down to a depth of
at least six inches, Mr.. Longely says.
When enough water has been applied
the soil becomes springy under foot
and water can be squeezed out when
heavy pressure is applied with the
foot.
The frequency with which the lawn
is watered must be guaged by con-
ditionS, but the sprinkling should be
done regularly. The time of day is
not important, except that less water
will be lost by evaporation if it is
applied in the evening Deep water
ing encourages the roots to grow nat
urally down into the soil making the
grass less susceptible to drouth or
neglect.
Sometimes fertilizers, such as sui
phate of ammonia, are applied to the
lawns during the summer months. If
this is done, it is very important that
the lawn be heavily watered after the
application of the fertilizer to pre-
vent burning.
