He has kept tiis promise and he expects man to be loyal to him.

In good faith was this covenant r;ade and it has ever been kept by the fatner and ever broken by man. iJater dia God make a covenant v.jth Abraham, that through his seed nMght man be saved. Again, there iV.us a covenant between God and Ieaar. found in Gen. 26:3, in which the Father said, "Sojourn in this land and I will be with thee and bless thee; for unto thy seed will I give all thefe countries, and will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father." Again, when Jacob was jcurneying to the land of his uncle m the east, when he rested at night at Bethel, God in Gen. 2S:13 said: "And behold the Lord stood above it and said, 'I am the Lord God of Abra ham, thy father, and the God of Isaac. The land whereon thou liest. to thee? , will I jrive and to thy seed." and in , the following verse, he continued. saying. "And thy seed shall be as the oust of the earth, and thou shall spread abroad in the west and to the wilderness. Joshua 24:22-28, reads ias follows: "And Joshua said unto shall, therefore, be a witness unto you, lest you deny your God.' So Joshua let the people depart, every man to his own inheritance." In the matter of personal covenants between men, the one most often re ferred to Is that of Jonathan and David. Saul who was king, did not like David and was striving to kill him, but Saul's son Jonathan, made a covenant with David as is found in I Samuel 18:3, "When Jonathan and David maF a covenant because he loved him. Then Jonathan stripped off the robe that was upon him, and ave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword and to his bow iand to his girdle."

I All previous covenants were ful-j filled whn Christ gave his life that jwe all might live, and it is with us to accept ine Facriuce wnicn ne nas made for our redemption, which is the everlasting covenant.

YAET PROBLEM FACES MUSSOLINI IN TYROL Basle, Switzerland, April 25. Seemingly undisputed master of Italy,: Benito Mussolini has in the Italian Tyrol, which before the war was part ; of Austria, a political problem of so; delicate a nature that it will un doubtedly prove a great test of his patience and skill. In a speech before the chamber of deputies in February last Mus solini declared with reference to Brenner Pass, that "fascist Italy can. if necessary carry further beyond its tricolor, but never lower it." Now, however, he must by tactful policies seek to win over to Italy some 150 thousand people a district which Italy calls the Upper Adige, but which the Austrians and Germans call southern Tyrol.

SOUTH DAKOTA I.IAN, HOME SKUNK LADEN Sioux Falls, S. p., April 27. A familv of skunk living under his garage and within a few feet of his bedroom is making life miserable for Charles S. Hills, residing in the out skirts of town, and though he appeal ed to city authorities today they could offer no help. Hills said he cannot sleep at night unless he wears a gas mask. April is a closed season on skunks, it is against the law to discharge fire arms within the city limits, and he cannot legally trap them. Hills appealed to the humane so ciety, but it declared the matter out of its jurisdiction. The city health department told Hills it did not believe skunks a men ace to the public health; the city attorney declared he could find no law the skunks had broken; and the municipal judge asserted the mat ter did not come under his author ity.
