SCOUTS' FIRST WAR SERVICE. Members of th Boy Rcouts of America gave a practical demonstra- tlon of the services which they can ! render In aa emergency when the dls- j aster at th Eddyston Munition com- 1 pany's works occurred. More than 120 Uvea were lost In thl explosion and several hundred people were Injured. I Word was sent to schools lu nearby I towns requesting the services of scouts. All member were Immedltite- : ly released from school dutle snd hur- . ried to EiMyston and to Chester, where they did splendid work assist ing In first aid, acting as guard and : doing various sorts of put ml duty. j Their assistance was so iuvHluvble during this trying period that many of ; them were held for three days. They also caine to the rescue of th West- j ern Union Telegraph company, which was flooded with telegrams from anxious relatives of munition workers. TAKE DOWN YOUR WIRELESS. Here's another opportunity for boys to demonstrate their loyalty and their scouting ability. In accordance with .. ..-.i..- iuu.,j . ,,., ,,-.,1,1..,,, the United States, it Is Illegal for any persons not authorised government of- flclals to operate a wireless plunt or to have one ln such condition a to be curable of oneratlon. This ai.ulles to receiving as well as to transmitting stations. Every scout should dismantle has appuratus Immediately. This means the taking down of the antenna wire, and the disconnecting and packing of the Instruments. Scouts should not only dismantle their own apparatus, but report to the local police department any stations aside from those they know to be government stations which are ln op eration. SCOUTS AID FIREMEN. The fire departments In many cities are beginning to recognize the value of the assistance which trained Hoy Vouts can give. Under the direction of Robert J. Charles the Boy Scouts of Knnxvllle, Tenn., are being trained to assist the Are deportment of that city. Whenever a fire Is reported the scout commissioner la notified, and he In turn notifies the scouts In the city through the officers of the various dis trict commissions. This Is part of the plan devised by Mr. Charles for th mobilization of Boy Scouts in time of , fire or other disaster. SCOUT KNOWS HIS CITY. A scout knows his city as well as he knows the trails in the forest. He can guide a stranger wherever he desires to go, and his knowledge of short cuts saves him many needless steps. He knows where the police stations are located, where the fire-alarm boxes are placed, where the nearest doctor lives, where the hospitals are, and which Is the quickest way to reach them. He 1 knows the numes of the city officials 1 and the nature of their duties. A scout is proud of his city and freely offers bis services when he can help. CIVIC GOOD TURNS. Th civic good turns of semtt are adding very considerably to the com fort and wellbelng of the communities In which they live. Recently the Boy Scouts of Alameda, Cul., cleaned the beaches on the south side of their city for a distance of several miles. Under the direction of their scoutmasters the boys of seven troops separated Into groups and cleared the stretch of sand. Following the cleanup, they held a scout rally and made a big bonfire ot he rubbish they had gnthered. South Africa's Qold Produot The output of gold In the Transvaal during 1018 has been valued at $197, 423,500. This constitutes an Increase of $4,287,540 on the output for 101.1, and is the highest year's return in the history of the Transvaal. The previ ous record was the 1012 production, which, however, has been beaten by the 1016 output by over three-quarters of a million. The 1010 output represents approximately 40 per cent of the world's output South Africa has now, since the first discovery of gold In that country, contributed $2,575,000,000.

Another reason why thta Is done Is to 1 show ;od's hug forbearance. He ts hot willing that any should perlh. but j that all should come to repentance (II Peter S O). And finally, we can ! account for It on the ground that God penult the things to go on long In order to vindicate hi Justice when he fudges.

He restored the high places which had been destroyed by his father (v. S). It Is thus seen that he sought to undo the good work done by his father. 2. lie erected altar to Baal (v. 8).

It seems to be true always thnt when those who profess to worship God turn away from him, they Indulge ln sin ln excess of the unbelievers. 0, He rejected the Lord's testimony (v. 10). Doubtless the prophets had again and again admonished him, but he teems to hnve turned entirely asids from such 'remonstrances. II. Manasseh's Chastisement (vv. 11 13). The Lord In grace used the As syrians to chastise Mnnnsseh, so as to bring him to see his evil ways. He was captured, perhaps while hiding among the Ihlcket ef thorns (v. 11). bound In chains and carried to Baby lon. This was most humiliating. Ills hands were manacled, his ankles fas tened together with rings and a bar. III. Manasuh't Repentance, (vv. 12. 13). Eortunntely, the chastisement bad Its desired effect. Manasseh was brought to his senses and turned from his evil ways. The steps In his re pentance are as follows : 1. Affliction (v. 12). This was most severe. Bound with chains and dragged to Babylon. While this was severe. It was light in comparison with the sins which provoked it Many today are groaning under the weight of God's chasUsement who have not yet come to realize that the weight Is light com pared with the offense. Affliction Is God's love token (Heb. 12:0). Its pri mary design Is to brine men back to God. 2. 8uppllcatlon (v. 12). Manasseh had the good sense to cry out to God in tills condition. It Is the unmistak able evidence that God's chastisement ts accomplishing Its purpose. We are Instructed In Jaine 5 :13 In time of af fliction to prny. 8. Humility (v. 12). This Is a com mon characteristic of penitent souls. Those who come under the hand of God always recognize It In their hum ble walk. 4. Forgiveness (v. 13). As soon as Ood sees the signs of penitence, be turns In mercy to the peultent and grants absolution for sin. No one needs to wait long to receive his for giveness. 5. His kingdom restored (v, 13). Manasseh not only was forgiven, but he was actually restored to his king dom. Those who truly repent God will not only forgive, but be will re store (Psa. 82:3-5). 6. Apprehension of Ood (v. 13). Through this experience Manasseh came to know God. He not only came to know God na the Jealous God, th One who will not tolerate a rival, but he came to know him as a Ood of mercy. He came to know him In a new way. Happy are those who sub mit to the chastisement of God, who opens their hearts to receive the new revelation of himself,' even though it be through Qie band of cbasUsemest , New Discovery!
