It represented\nGod's throne, the place from which\nhc communicated his will to the people through the priest (Ex. 25:22;\nPsalms 80:1).\nI. David's Unsuccessful Attempt to\nBring  up   the   Ark(vv.l-S).\nThis is an example of the wrong\nway of doing a right thing. That thc\nark of thc Lord of Hosts, thc symbol\nof God's presence, should be brought\nto thc very centre of the nation's lifc\nwas a decision worthy of all praise.\nIt surely met God's approval. David\ngathered together the representative\nmen of thc nation in order that the\nmovement might bc a national one.\nThat David was sincere in this measure cannot be doubted, but he was\nhasty and inconsiderate. God had\nexpressly decreed that thc Kohathitcs\nshould bear the ark upon thcir shoulders (Num. 4: 14, 15; 18:3). For\nthem to place it' even upon a cart\nwas a positive violation of God's\ncommandment. Though David was\nsincere his sincerity did not atone for\ndisobedience to God's word. Thc\ndictum that it matters little what you\ndo, just so you arc honest and sincere, is one of thc Devil's blackest\nlies. It mattered much in this case,\nand always'docs. David cannot bc\nexcused on hc groutnd of ignorance,\nbecause he had the opportunity to\nknow. God cannot be blamed for\nman's ignorance when he has given\nhim the law and the ability to understand it.\nII. God Vindicates His Law and Holiness.\nThe people were very joyful as\nthey moved on toward Jerusalem\nwith thc ark, but suddenly therc was\n!a stop to thcir jubilant voices and\nmusic. At some rough place in the\nroad the oxen stumbled and Uzzah,\nanxious for the precious freight on\nhis cart, reached forth his hand to\nsteady it. This resulted with his being stricken with death. Ignorance\ndecs nol makc a m .\\< immune from\nthe death which is iii thc. touch cf\na heavily charged electric wire; neither docs it in thc case of the violation of God's laws. Even thosc who\nwere designated by the Lord to cany\nthe ark wcrc not allowed to touch it\nwith their hands. Since thc ark was\nGod's dwelling place among men,\nthe j' needed, to know that hc was\nholy. ; ' God's judgment was severe\nr.but\" riot morc so than thcy deserved.\nThis awful visitation-of just.judgment\nstruck tcrror to David.

Douglas Newton, is\nan intensely human record of a memorable journey.\"\" There is a.wealth\nof detail which, as it concerns the\nmost popular character in Great Britain, cannot be looked upon'as mere\nliterary padding. The Prince's\n'sporting and athletic proclivities\nseem to have been the chief source\nof his great reception and popularity\nin thc \"West,\" and Mr. Newton enables us to see His Royal Highness'\nas an angler, a baseball pitcher and\nas  a \"broncho\" rider.\nAs an angler, thc Prince did not\nmeet with much success, on account\nof the lateness of thc season, and the\nman who caught thc most fish was\nnot an expert angler, bcing none\nother than thc official photographer,\nwho was vastly pleased, not to say\namused, when His Royal Highness\nsaid to him: \"Look here, don't you\nrealize I'm the onc to do that? You're\ntaking my place in the programme?\"\nGreater success seems to havc\ncrowned the Prince's initiation into\nthe myslcris of baseball. At Edmonton he took part in an inter-local\nteam, and the author relates:\n. \"Walking to the diamond, he\nequipped himself in authentic manner with floppy, jockey-peaked cap\nand a ruthless glance, took his stand\nas a pitcher, and delivered two balls.\nI don't know whether thcy , were\nstingers or swizzcrs, or whajjsver the\nsyncopated phraseology of the game\"\ndubs thcin, but they were matters of\ngreat admiration.\n\"Having led to thc undoing (I\nhope, for that was his task) of someone, the Prince then'joined thc audience. He chose not thc best seats\nbut tiie popular ones, for he sat on\nthc grass among thc 'bleachers,' and\nwhen one. has sat out of the shade\nin the hot prairie sun, one knows\nwhat 'bleachers' means. This sporting littic interlude was immensely\npopular, and the Prince left Edmonton with the reputation of being a\ntrue 'fan' and.'a real good feller.'\"\nPerhaps thc most sporting and\npopular of th'c Prince's athletic\nachievements, not only1 from thc\npoint of view of the \"wcst.ii-but also\nfroni that of his own country, wa.s\nhis riding of a \"broncho.\" Apropos\nof this incident, Mr. Newton stales:\n\"Saskatoon,   the   distributing ,. city\nfor thc middle of Saskatchewan, was ;\nto give lhc Prince a memorable day. |\nIt was'here that he obtained his first!\ninsight into -the lifc and  excitements\nof the. cowboy.\n- \"Tlic.

Christie of -Purdue  University Reviews Agricultural   \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nSituation in U. S.\nIn a statement with regard to. the\nagricultural situation, Prof. G. I.\nChristie of Purdue University, who\nis a graduate of the Ontario Agricultural College, says: \"The people of\nthe United Statcs are demanding\nautomobiles, musical instruments,\njewelry, fine clothes and recreation\nmorc than they- wish food. . Thesc\npeople are willing to pay _high prices\nfor such articles that laboring men\nengaged in the manufacture of these\nmaterials may be paid wages two,\nthree and five times as great as the\nfarmer can afford  to pay.\n\"Cheap land and cheap labor havc\ngone,\" continues Professor Christie,\n\"and so the last of cheap food has\nbeen seen. From now on consumers\nmust, pay the price that allows^hc\nfarmer a fair return for liis labor\nand his investment.\" A conference\nof the members of the agricultural\nstaff of, Purdue University was held\nto consider phases of the present agricultural situation. Many reports received, from thc various counties in\n,thc: state are alarming and show an\nunsettled condition.\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Thc statement concludes: .\"Food\nis absolutely necessary\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmore than a\nhundred millions of people -in thc\nUnited Statcs must be fed, while in\naddition, many millions in Europe\nmust hav.e food from American farms\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdpeople of the cities must realize\nthat farmers must have a fair price\nfor tlicir products. Cheap land and\ncheap labor have gone and so thc\nlast of cheap food has been seep.\nFrom now on consumers must pay\na price that will give a fair return for\nthe farmer's labor and also for his\ninvestment. Under the conditions, if\nwheat was worth $2.20 per bushel in\n1917, thc crop of 1920 should bring\nnot less  than $3.\n\/ \"If corn was worth eighty cents\nin 1914, thc 1920 crop should -return\n$1.75 to $2 per bushel. Prices* for\nother crops, for livo stock, dairy and\npoultry, should bc increased accordingly. Food production should bc\nmaintained, but this can only bc hoped for when farmers a\/c assured of\nreasonable prices. The situation demands the serious and careful consideration of all thc people. The farmer\nshould go ahead and do thc b-'sf possible tinder the conditions.\"\nJunior Farmer A, Big Factor\nBoys   and   Girls   Do   Their   Part   In\nEmpire Building\nSome persons, perhaps, may look\nupon boys' and girls' club work as\nbcing of somc worth, but arc not\nparticularly impressed with its value,\nnor optimistic about its possibilities.\nProbably a lack of definite knowledge\nof the extent of such work is the\nreason. The following extract from\nPresident Willis E. Johnson's inauguration address at Brookings, S. D.,\nrecently, discloses the fact that the\nboys' and girls' club work alone has\nattained such proportions as to bc a\nmatter of state pride. It shows that\nboys and girls, when given thc chance\ncan play tlicir part in Empire building.\nThe boys and girls iu the pig clubs\nof South Dakota produced last year\nover onc, million dollars' worth of\npure-bred registered pigs. It was.\nsome work to furnish the money and\nthc little pigs for such an undertaking, and this-was \"only one-project\nof a single department of the division\nof extension. .
