RIGHT THINKING HELD | KEY TO HEALTHY LIFE Christian Science Lecturer De- scribes Teaching to Masonio Auditorium Audience. Separates Mental Faculty From Materia¥ Organs or Functions, A lecture on Christian Science, enti- tled “God, the One Infinite Mind,” was delivered last evening at the Masonic Auditorium by Bicknell Young, C. S. 1., of Chicago, Il The lecturer is a member of the board of lectureship of the Mother Church, the Church of Christ, Scientist, in Bos- ton, Mass., and was well qualified to speak on his subject. The Auditorium was filled and the lecturer was introduced by Allan C. Clough, first reader of Third Church of Christ, Scientist, under whose aus- Dices the lecture was given. The lec- ture will be repeated this evening at 8 p.m. and is free to the public. Young said, in part: Capacity to Thi The wise man wrote. “Get wis- ¢ getting get un- Understanding implies We can all think, but we realize that we can all be great thinkers in the sense of being #ood thinkers. We can all gain thoughts which are purely spiritual. and we can make them practical in our lives through Christian Sclence, which enables us to recognize their origin and prove their power. Prior to the advent of Christian Science no such thing was scientifically possible, bLecause uninstructed by Christi h §) rstanding. thinking. scarcely Science the natural ability w Dossess to gain and exercise power lics dormaunt. Though rarely considered by the V' lay man or woman, yet our to think is the greatest of our possessions and the only means by which we can know the truth which Jesus said would make us free. Nothing important that can be clas- sified as mental escaped the search- ing analysis of the discoverer and founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, while carrying on_for many years 'the remarkable intellec- tual and spiritual investigation that resulted in the discovery of the true system of mind-healing, which she s> aptly denominated Christian Science. Right Concept of God. Her discovery sprang from a right concept of God. This concept satis- fies reason and agrees with revela- tion. It adds grandeur as well as practical helpfulness to the Christian religion. It especially associates im- minence with God, and thereby makes the divine law available to mankind. For this reason and for others equally - cogent, she announced the -ETeat primal fact of all science and of all religion in the words: “God is Mind,” and she proved th.s statement | to be both true and available during many years of actual practice, by healing through the power of the divine Mind alone many cases of pirtual diseases that are regarded as incura- |- ble by the prevailing material meth- 0ds of healing. In the some way Mrs. Eddy's fol- lowers, Christian Science practition- ers throughout the world, in the ex- act proportion to their understanding | of the power of the divine mind, gained through the study of her books. and more particularly “Science and Health with Key to the Scrip- tures,” the textbook of Christian Sci- Bxe, are doing the same work that she Divine Mind Heals. It is the divine mind, which saves and heals in Christian Sclence, and therefore in order to experience the protection.. or healing power of Christian_Science, one must seek to understand and demonstrate the di- vine mind. Mes. Eddy writes in her book “Scieffcé..and Health” (p. vii), “The time for thinkers has come,” and one who reads her books at- tentively can scarcely fail to observe that she is equally insistent upon the fact that the time to think has come, __The general opinion of mankind is to the effect that the ability to think is depéndent upon matter. So much i3 this the case that if you speak to a person about his mind or yours it is more than likely that he will answer in terms of matter. His education and belief tend to make mind ~ and brains synonymous. Christian Science shows that they are not so, but that they are, on the con- trary, antithetical, for mind, God, is apirit, and matter is always the op- posite of spirit. As already indicated, Christian Sci- enoe declares that the one infinite God of Christendom is one infinite mind, which, being infinite, is unquestion- ably capable of doing all the thinking that needs to be done, or that can really be done. It shows also that human beings are not thinking with thelir brains even when they suppose that they are, for matter, that is to say, brains, is always nonintelligent. There is no such thing as thinking ‘matter. Jesus Fulfllled Law. Jesus declared that he came to ful- i1l the law, that he came to save that which waslost, that he came to save men’s, lives, not to destroy them. Ac- cordingly Christian Science has not come to destroy anything that is es- sential to a human being's existence or welfare. While it repudiates the proposition that such a glorious thing as the power to think could spring from or be dependent upon nonin- telligent matter, it does not te: ithat we are to be deprived of our ‘brains. On the contrary, it shows us that in the measure that Christian Science is understood and demon- strated, the human body. including brains, is improved in health. Incidently the.slipshod ways and immature conclusions which most of APPEAL FGR FOREIGN CHILDREN IS RENEWED D. C. Red Cross Asks for Volunteers to Sew Additional Ma- terial Received. Receipt of additional material for garments and layettes for the - gee children of Poland, Hungary and Greece has been received by the Dis- trict Chapter, American Red Cross. In announcing this last night, Mrs. Theodore W. Richards, secretary of the chapter. again issued an appeal for more volunteers to sew these garments, which will be furnished to the workers cut out. More than 400 garments were com- pleted last we¢k, making the total above 2,000 since the call for help was first received. All women willing to help are asked to call at the District headquarters, 16 Jackson place northwest, daily between 9:30 am. and 4:30 p.m. Mrs. Richards also announced that the District chapter has on hand wool to distribute to skilled knitters to make knitted. garments. There are twenty pounds of sweater wool available—baby wool and wool for socks. CHANGE IS URGED IN CRAMTON BILL "I Test of Fitness Plea of National Civil Service Reform League Official. Elimination from the Cramton bill for a separate bureau of prohibition of the provision which would permit appointment of the higher prohibition enforcement officials and all attor- neys without tests of their fitness is urged in a petition to the House ju- diciary committee by H. W. Marsh, secretary of the National Civil Serv- ice Reform League. “Whether some exceptions (from the requircments of the civil service law) may be desirable or not. we be- lieve they have no place in the stat- utes,” the brief states. “The terms of the civil service act permit the President of the United States in his discretion to make any exceptions from the competitive system that seem desirable. We believe that it is not only unwise, but also inappro- priate, for the Congress to make the exceptions set forth in Mr. Cramton's bill. It fs a question whether the scandals with which the prohibition bureau has been so notoriously iden- tified in the past will cease in any real measure if all the exceptions enumerated in_the Cramton bill are permitted to stan us have called thinking may easily be made to give place to the correct- ress in method and judgment which characterize real thinking. By this I do not mean to imply mere intel- lectuality. If the race could have been saved by intellectuality it would have gained both happiness and holi- ness centuries ago. Jesus repudiated the intellectuality of his time, and yet as a philosopher, and, Christian Science shows, as a scientist, he was superior to all the intellectuals of his of any other age. oAsk your grocer about LIFEBUOY Gray hair, however handsome, de- notes advancing age. We all know the advantages of a youthful ap- pearance. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray and looks streaked, just a:few applications of Sage Tea and_ Sulphur enhance its appearance a hundred-fold. Don't stay gray! Look young! Either prepare the recipe at home or get from any drug store a bottle of "gVVyelh's Sage and Sulphur Com- pound,” which is merely the old- time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. Thousands of folks recommend this ready-to-use preparation, because it darkens the hair beautifully; besides, no one can possibly tell, as it darkens so natu- rally and evenly. You moisten a sponge or soft brush with it, draw- ing this through.the hair, taking one small strand at a time. By mogning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two its natural color is restored and it be- comes thick, glossy and lustrous, and you appear years younger.
