RADIANT LIVING
THE GLORY OF DIVINE
ILLUMINATION
BY Rev. c. NJ. Griffeth
Methodist Pastor of
Deals Island, Nd.

The ancient cities were but dimly
lighted. 1t was not safe to be out
after sunset. In the day the narrow
streets were binding hot in the glar-
ing sun, but at night they were in
pitch darkness, except here or there
blazing torch or the pale light of
the quiet moon hung low in the
southern heavens.
In his prophesy of the future Jeru-
salem, Isaiah speaks of the city as
being divinely illuminated. 1.-THE
sun shall be no more thy light by
day; neither for the brightness shall
the moon give light unto thee; but
the Lord shall be unto thee an ever
lasting light, and thy God, thy glory"
What a picture these words given
to the divinely illuminated soul!
When a mans soul is despOndent
for light upon material sources such
as pleasure and possessions, his light
is but material light-shining for a
season and then twilight; after which
Genes pitch darkness.
But when a mans soul is illumi-
mated by that spiritual light whose
source is God, his soul shall re-
joice in a perpetual day! There
shall be no night, for God Himself
is the light thereof. AS Isaiah says:
THE Lord shall be thine everlasting
light"
May your soul be as an inner city
of Zion! May every thought and
every emotion he as a holy resident.
May its atmosphere be that of heav-
snly serenity. May the walls about
L. be the walls of Salvation. May its
Gates be the gates of Praise. And
nay God Himself be thine everlast-
ng Light!

Hints to Gardeners
by Harold Coulter
Plant Expert
Ferry Seed Institute
Caring for the Lawn

MAINTENANCE Of firstclass
WI lawns requires long, hard work,
and patience. For those who are
willing to stick by the job at hand,
the information here will be of as
sistance.
Weeds, of course, are an eternal
problem. They must be given vigor-
GUS battle each succeeding year.
Early spring and late fall are the
best times for weed fighting, as the
moist conditions then make it more
easy to pull them by the roots.
Dig out dandeliOns at least too
inches beloW the surface. Shallow
cutting is worse than useless as the
remaining root forms several new
plants.
Crab grass is one Of the most
widespread and persistent Of the
current grass enemies. In late sum
mer, when it is about to seed, keep
1t cut closely. It should be pulled
out by the roots in late summer and
early fall. Special rakes can be OBJ
tanned for the purpose if pulling by
hand proves too laborious.
When the pulling chore is done.
balanced plant food should be ap-
piled to the lawn,-four pounds to
every 100 square feet. Next wet the
lawn. Then apply seed and rake or
roll it in.
Crab grass dies in the fall, but
drops seed which terminates the
following spring. The practice here
recommended lit should be per.
formed sometime between August
Is and September 15) should give a
good crop of grass in the early
spring. so dense and vigorous that
the crab grass seedlings, which
terminate comparatively late. will
not have sufficient space or light for
development.
In caring for the lawn, remember
to make additional applications Of
plant food periodically where there
are large trees.
Water lawns late in the day. Do
not sprinkle every day or 80, but
give one good soaking q week, wet
ting the soil to q depth Of several
inches.
