It probably occtined lit Octo ber. st- months hofoie the ciuclflxlon, while .lesos was attending the Keast of the Tabernacles. There are sl oilier canes of blindness recorded as having been cured. Look them up. I. The Case (vv. I-1). It was nbso. Ititely hopeless. No human skill could touch It. but .losus "passed by," and that changed everything. What men cannot do .losus can. .lesus is passing today, ami we mn epei I things quite as wonderful to happen (.lohn H:1'J). This blind man llhistiatcs the unsaved sinner (1 (.'or. 'J. II). He never had seen, lie was bo.v out! human help (v. '!'-'). He had doubtless given up all hope of seeing. He was without sym pathy, suspected and despised (vv. "., ill). Poor he was u beggar, lie Is also a t.vpe of the nation of Israel (liov. ,':I7). We must not attempt to explain all sickness (v. .'). God fre quently uses it for the advancement of his kingdom (,lohn 11:1). .lesos not only passed by hut he "saw." The feeling of the crowd was that of curi osity and (ontempt. His fooling was that of compassion (vv. '2, -1 and (1). Sickness sometimes manifests Gotl'H .sustaining grace (II Cor. 1U:S-10). It Is doubtless true that a large percent age of sickness is the direct result of sin (John 0:1-1; Mk. 2:5; Acts PJ:'J:t), some, of course, Indirectly (Job l!::l-l- ::o). II. The Cure (vv. -Ml). The word "must" In verse four Is a stiong one. Tho time for us to do our work Is "now." This word "must" carries with It the Idea of a divine imperative, and the reason for that Imperativeness Is the approaching "night." Night is coming fast, when no man can work. Notice the works we are to do are not our own, hut "the works of hlui that sent me." Compare carefully verses two and four, and see that Jesus con sidered delivering the man from evil far more important than speculating ubout the origin of his complaint. Too much time Is spent In investigation. Let us have more of action. The means used in this cure were clay and spittle. The inlracle was performed In plain view of nil who might see. The man did not ask Jesus to help him, hut Jesus had gone where lie was (v. C). Ills words, "Go wash" were u test of the man's faith (II Kings 0:10-14), and his part In the transaction was a testimony that it was Christ who worked the cure. The use of the material moans In this ceremony mndo the mail more willing to go and wash. It gave him something to do, and doing Is always an end to faith. Slloam menus "sent," and was a type of Jesus himself (v. -1; John 10:'I0; Item. 8:.'t; (Jul. 4:4). If we wish to receive sight for our blind eyes, we should go to him nnd bathe (John 8:12). III. The Controversy (v. 12 to end of chapter). This controversy gave op portunity for testimony, ns we litivo nlready seen, first of nil upon the part of the man whoso testimony was pro gressive. At first ho merely spoke of the fact. Ho was not acquainted with Jesus, for he calls him "The mnn called Jesus." Later on lie is moved to call him u "prophet." He Is n prophet (v. 17), and later still ho recognizes him as "The Son of God" (vv. .IfKiS). This controversy estab lished beyond question the fact of tho cure. It In ought out the deity of Christ (v. UK). Tho man was excom municated, but for that matter ho was already outside because of his physical Infirmity, but, best of all, he became truly Clulst's disciple. IV. Comments. This lesson with Its vivid contrasts of belief mid unbelief gives us u wonderful opportunity to urge upon pupils u decision to live tho Christian life. Has Christ opened tho o.es of our Miiolais to the lovo of God, to Hie aw fulness of sin, to the need of a Savior, our divine Leader nnd Iirother? Urge them, In tho class nnd out, to be as outspoken and cour ageous for Christ as was this man who had never before perhaps seen or heard of Jesus, and whose gratitude nt once called forth this wonderful con fession. llolng cast out by the rules of tho synagogue brought this man Into closer nnd deeper fellowship nnd commun ion with Jesus. He had believed fur enough to obey his bidding, and had thus been healed. Now he Is brought to n great sav ing, transforming faith, viz., that Jesus Is the Son of God. Do we take ndvantage of our privi lege of confession? Hefore Christ came thero wero no hospitals. He Is the Inspiration of all charitable institutions, but healing of the body Ib of secondary importance; tho healing of tho soul Is primary. "Whercns I was blind, now I see."

Canada Offers 160 Acres Free to Farm Hands Bonus of Western Canada Land to Men Assisting in Maintaining Needed Grain Production The demand for farm labor in Canada is great. As an inducement to secure the necessary help at once, Canada will give ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES OF LAND FREE AS A HOMESTEAD and allow the time of the farm laborer, who has filed on the land, to apply as residence duties, the same as if he actually had lived on it. Another special concession is the reduction of one year in the time to complete duties. Two years instead of three as heretofore, but only to men working on the farms for at least six months in 1917. This appeal for farm help is in no way connected with enlistment for military service but solely to increase agricultural output.
