Legion and do the right thing always,
and In time we will have the confi
dence of the people," Mr. MacNIder
continued.
"Men who offered all they had to
the country have a right to the con
lldence of that country. They should
havo a voice In its affairs, for they
never would want to do a thing con
trary to the country's Interests."
By building up a "spirit" among the
members of the Legion and creating n
comradeship with "our companions In
arms in England, France, Italy and the
other countries,'.' moro can be done for
peace than In any other way, tho
peaker claimed.

I. Ahab Covets Naboth's Vineyard
(vv. 1-0).
I. Location of tho vineyard (v. 1).
It Joined Allah's summer home In J or.
reel. lie wanted to transform It Into
an herb garden and thus round out
his property.
U. Ahab's proposal (v. 12). lie of
fered to buy It outright for money, or
give In exchange a better one. Ahab's
wish for It was a selfish whim. Ho
did not at all need It.
H. Naboth's refusal (v. ,'l). It was.
for u twofold reason: (1) regard for
tho paternnl estate; (2) obedience to
God's law (Lev. !r SUM'S, cf. Num. :1C:
7-0). Ills rofusul was on conscientious
grounds. A king, even, hns no right
to nsk of his subject that he violate
his conscience.
1. Ahab's behavior (v. 4). Ho camo
Into his house, lay down upon his bed
and refused to cat. The king was
sulking like a spoiled child. This Is
a picture of what a fool even a king,
may make of himself. Let us learn
that "godliness with contentment is
great gain" (I Tim. 0:0).
0. Jezebel's inquiry (vv. 5, 0). Ap
parently she came with the sympa
thy of a wife, Inquiring as to tho
cause of his behavior. But when she
knew of Naboth's refusal sho was vi
olently nngry. That a humble Mib
Ject should refuse to conform to tho
desire of the king was an Insult which
sho would not brook.
II. Ahab Taking Possession of Na
both'o Vineyard (vv. 7-10).
1. Jezebel's treachery (vv. 7-l").
(1) Her contemptuous question (v.
7). Sho taunted him for his coward
Ice. The fear of being thought weak
moves a weak man quickly. (2) Her
exhortation to Ahnh (v. 7). "Arise, eat
bread, and let thine heart he merry."
A wife has great Influence over her
husband. Mnny a man has been saved
from discouragement and therefore
defeat, through his wife's inllueuce.
Unfortunately In this case the In
fluence of the wife Is bad. (It)
Her promise to Ahab (v. 7). "I will
give thee the vineyard of Nahoth."
She tool; matters Into her own hands.
If Ahab was too weak to be king, Mio
would rule for him. (1) Her wicked
scheme (vv. 8-lf). She wrote letters
In Ahab's name, scaled them with his
seal and sent them to the elder.- and
nobles who were dwelling In the city
with Nahoth, asking them to proclaim
a fast, as though some great calamity
had befallen the nation, and place Na
hoth before the public as the one who
was the cnue of it all. They were
instructed to find two false witnesses
who would testify against Xnhnth.
The charge they brought according to
the wicked device of Jezebel was
blasphemy against God and the king.
Naboth's only offense was his refu-al
to sell his estate, contrary to the law
of God. When they had stoned to
death Nahoth and his sons (Il Kings
0:20), they rami? and told Jezebel,
who in turn came to Ahab with tho
Information and directed him to take
possession of Uie vlneynid.
2. Ahab goes to Jezreel to take pos
session of Naboth's vineyard (v. 10).
Ahab had not killed Nahoth, hut he
eagerly accepted the Vlzo without In
quiring as to how It was secured.
III. Elijah in Naboth's Vineyard
Announcing Doom Upon Ahab (vv. 17
20). 1. Doom upon Ahab (vv. 17-22).
Klljah told him the dog should lick
his blood In the place where they
licked the blood of Nahoth. Kvl! was
to fall upon Ahab and his posterity,
even wipe out his seed and name. He
was guilty of conspiracy, murder, rob
bery, perjury, blasphemy, though he
had been silent and Inactive. God
held him responsible for Jezebel's acts,
for he was king and head of the na
tion. The day of reckoning did come
to Ahab (I Kings 22::i8).
2. Doom upon Jezebel (vv. 2I1-20).
She likewise should bo eaten by dogs
by the wall of Jezreel. This was lit
erally fulfilled (II Kings 0::i3-a7).
"Be sure your sin will find you out."
IV. Ahab's Repentance (vv. 27-29).
Because of this, God promised to
withhold Judgment during his life
time. Death of Abraham.
And these are ihp days of the years
of Abraham's life which he lived, an
hundred threescore and fifteen years.
Then Abraham gave up tho ghost, and
dli'd in n good old age, an old man,
and full of years; and was gathered
to his people. Genesis 25:7-8.
The Murmuring Congregation.
And tho Lord spoko unto Moses and
unto Aaron, saying, How long shall
I bear with thin ovll congregation,
which murmur against me? Numbers
14:20-27.
LAND OF WEALTH
Potentialities of Western Canada
Abundantly Proved.
Prizes Taken ak International Live
Stock Exposition Show What Land
lo Capable of Producing.
Forty j ears ago the tlrsl sale was
hiudo of lands acquired by the Cana
dian racltlc railway. This Is but a
hhott simn In the lives of many, and
there are those who look back upon
that period as it being but of yester
day. Yet when one glances hack It Is
to marvel at the accomplishments of
that period. Onu of the most striking
of these Is the progress that has been
iniulo in Western Camilla since that
day, forty years ago, when an oilkial
of the'rallway placed his signature to
the document that gave possession to
the new owner of a section of land.
This was the lhst sign or the wealth
that In time would be added to the
wealth of the world in forty years,
this single section of land being tho
base upon which the future would be
built. The potential wealth was but'
In embryo; today It Is a big, living
reality. Among the many things that
reveal this, may be seen the winnings
made by Western Camilla exhibitors at
the International Live Stock show held
In Chicago la 1021. TheVc were so
marked In their number as to give to
the world the American world a
splendid Idea of the excellence of the
products of the farms of tho new but
rapidly developing country lying to the
north of the International boundary
line.
The results of the exhibition show,
according to the Mnnltoha Free Press,
that In llvo stock mid grain exhibits
tho three prairie provinces of Canada
made something like 1C0 winnings.
Every animal sent from the province
of Alberta won a prize. Exhibits In
cluded Shorthorn and Hereford cattle
and l'ercheron and Clydesdale horses.
An Alberta-bred heifer got fourth placo
In a class of eighteen outstanding In
dividuals. In grain, Alberta made sim
ply an astounding record, securing the
sweepstakes for oats, and eight or nine
prizes before even the American ex
hibitors secured a placing, and while
the grand championship for wheat
went to Montana, the prairie provinces
took 2il out of 2,i 'possible plnclngs.
The first prize for alfalfa seed was
awarded for seed grown at Brooks,
Alberta, in competition with -III entries.
'Alfalfa-growing In Western Canada
has been Increasing by leaps and
bounds, and this victory will give It
and the dairy Industry, which Is al
ways linked with It, a further Impetus.
' In llvo stock classes alone Saskatch
ewan had sixty entries ami took sixty
four ribbons.
The winning of the grand champion
ship for Clydesdale stallions by a
Saskatchewan horse, for the second
time In succession, was aliuo.-t excep
tional. He was bred on a Western
Canada farm, fitted anil prepared for
exhibition there, and able to win over
horses shown from the studs of men
who have unlimited money to spend
on the breeding and preparation of
their exhibits. This Is proof positive
that the farmers of Western Canada
are not only In a position to breed
their own horse power, and that of a
very high quality, but to hree4 horses
that will be saleable In any market
of the world.
Manitoba takes Just pride In the fact
that a l'ercheron stallion, first In his
class uud Canadian-bred champion,
was bred by Vance, of Crandall, Mani
toba. Manitoba took 01 places outside
of the grain exhibits.
When all Is said and done, the real
triumphs are the wins of both livestock
and grains actually produced In the
great Canadian provinces.
Commenting upon the enterprise of
agriculturists of Western Cannon In
Taste is a matter of
tobacco quality
We state it as our honest
belief that the tobaccos used
in Chesterfield arc of finer
quality (and hence of better
taste) than in any other
