MOTHER CHURCH, SCIENTISTS, HELD George Shaw Cook Named [ President, Succeeding Ralph H. Knapp | | BOSTON, Mass, June 8—Thou- |sands of Christian Scientists, meet- ing in this city, challenged a troub- led world to change its perspective from a material to a spiritual basis in its search for release from press- ing economic and political prob- lems. The occasion for the great influx of the followers of Mary Baker Eddy was the annual meeting of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Bos- ton, Massachusetts, which was filled right up to the center bal- cony under the very dome of the | great edifice. Through an entire afternoon’s round of addresses and reports from the field, the power of Christ, Truth, to lift individuals above the ills of human sense w: acknowledged and this same spiri- tual power was recommended for the healing of the nations and the establishment of a permanent world peace. Looking beneath the surface rip- ples of troubled international rela- tionships apparent in the world today, The Christian Science Board of Directors saw the deep-running currents of spiritual progress “keeping alive the vital realization of spiritual truth which Christian Scientists must always nurture, |whether their work be along the| speeific line of healing or in the impoértant channels connected with home, church, busines, and gov- ernment.” Church Progress Reported Various reports cited specific in- stances of spiritual enlightenment actively at work among the nations | today. One revealed that Europe, seething center of turbulent poli- tical upheavals, is also a fertile field | fm spiritual growth, indicated in the formation of 21 new branch church organizations abroad, 12 of them being in England. | Similar progress was reported in North America where 25 new branch organizations were launched. Africa and Australia, it was stated, have formed one new organization each, while 32 societies were found rais- ing their status to that of churches | during the last 12 months. In edu- | cational fields, nine new university organizations became. recognized | units of the Christian Science move- ment, Summarizing these distinct evi- dences of a continued reaching out for Truth, the Directors stated: “We are in a position to know, and are glad to report, that at no time in the history of the Christian Science movement has the healing | work been carried on with greater | success or along broader lines than it is today.” Benefit to World Sought Continuing, the Directors said: “Surely in this period of unsettled | world conditions our prayers are most essential, and each one of us should ask himself if he is doing all that he can to meet the aggres- sive suggestions of error, which | became intex Westcrn Beautwa l ie for “Mi iss Bouldvr Dam Western States or B Dam” with such prizes as a trip to the Golden Dam and numerous other trips. on June 11 in connection with dedication of a huge relief map of the West at the Hall of Western States asure Island.

When Rosalind Russell, a news- paper reporter, wins Patric Knowles, playboy publisher, over to hiring Errol Flynn, a whirlwind press agent, as his editor, Flynn picks Walter Connolly, a piratical captain of in- dustry, as the butt of a circulation- building campaign. Then he makes love to Olivia de Havilland, Con- nolly’s granddaughter, which in turn makes everybody hopping mad — Rosalind because she is in love with Flynn, Patric because he's in love with Olivia and Connolly because he likes to get mad.

The house—say, that’s the house that Jack built! bert. The house with the view from here to there. But it isn't the house that Jack built. Not exactly. Inside, it's the house that Miriam rebuilt. She bought it from the estate, you know, and she began doing things. Jack, whose life was pretty turbulent, might even find some peace there now. That living room, for instance. Tt used to have heavy Gothic windows, and dark oaken beams, and nooks and niches and cran- nies. A few stained-glass windows, and madonnas here and madon- nas there. Walls of gold, if I remember correctly, and pretty de- pressing any way you looked at it. Miriam has done what she could. It's a bright, pleasant, peaceful room now. The Gothic windows, the heavy beams, the nooks and niches and crannies are gone. Thete is cheery maple (I think it is) woodwork, and a flat ceiling, and pale blue walls as background for the lady’s rare paintings—a Degas, a Renoir, a Matisse and others she knows but I don't.

The dark green walls have been cheerily papered, however—and as for the tub: “I'm a convert to the old Roman, early-Hollywood bath,” says Miriam. “For a long time I was afraid to use it, and Just took showers, but one evening I came in tired and—it's marvelous! You can relax, even read a book, in that tub. I'm all for it!” Miriam has a cold, but she’s still the livést—and the only we can serve you better NOW —our newly rebuilf kitchen and pantry enable us to improve that service fo our diners on which we have always prided ourselves.
