Lecturer Gives Fundamentals Of Faith Questions about man’s purpose and destiny, the nature of the uni- verse and the “why”’ of all things, : are given a satisfactory and heal- ing answer by Christian Science — the spiritual Science that explains causation--- it was declared here Sunday afternoon by Robert S. Van Atta in a Christian Science lecture. “Spiritual Science is fundamental because it reveals primal cause and purpose it explains God and man so the simplest may understand,” he stated. “It explains away mat- ter, exalts Spirit, brings heaven down to earth, and shows how we may delineate upon our present lives the heavenly vision of. free- dom and joy which men have mis- takenly believed could be attained only hereafter.”’ Mr. Van Atta, now on extended tour from his home in Rochester, N. Y., spoke under auspices of Christian Society of Key West in the Harris Elementiqy School Audi- torium. His topic Was “Christian Science and the Search for Cause.” He is a member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, entist, in Boston, Mass. He was introduced by Cdr. Ray W. Byrns, USN, Ret. “How interested we all are in knowing the cause of things!” he declared. ‘We think of events as occurring in time, of one succed- ing another in a steady procession, and we say that any one is the cause of the next one in line.” But, he continued, “the question of cause is not finally settled until the inquiry leads us back to a point beyond which it is impossible to go, back to something which has no cause outside of itself. Primal cause will neyer be discovered so long as the investigation keeps to the-direct line of matter, for matter is not causative.’ “The persistent investigation of the research stientist should lead him back to divine Mind as cause of every effect,” the lecturer went on.-“It should be apparent to all that divine Mind is the beginning of all things.” He asked the audience: “Has anyone ever gone beyond in- telligence as a starting point?” The speaker recalled that Moses searched for ultimate causation, and was led by the spectacle of the burning bush, which was not consumed, to look beyond material knowlege and to conclude that the cause was “spiritually mental.” This revelation, Mr. Van Atta said, was to Moses as‘the voice of God speaking “he had touched -some- thing fundamental; he had glimps- ed the absolute.” The lecturer told of steps by which Mary Baker Eddy, the Dis- coverer and Founder of’ Christian Science, was led to conclude that “divine Mind is the only cause and all effects are mental.” “Discarding all reliance on mat- ter and mortal belief, Mrs. Eddy found the healing power of divine Mind to be immeasurably superior to all lower remedies,” he added. Mrs. Eddy proved her discovery by healing many desperate cases of sickness, he stated, and many others, following her instructions also are healing the sick in Chris. tian Science. He told of one indi- vidual who healed himself of in- fection, and another who healed herself of a severe burn, by turn- Just Wave Solemn High Mass At Seaplane Base On Christmas Eve The Feast of the Birth of Our Lord was celebrated at the Naval Air Station by the beautiful and traditional Solemn High Mass at midnight on Christmas Eve. In preparation ‘for the event the thea- ter-chapel at the Seaplane Base was lavishly decorated. The stage, be- fore which stood the altar, was a solid bank of evergreens, poinsett and white chrysanthemum, all making a gorgeous picture as they were tinted by soft blue footlights. On the altar 2 huge bouquets of white, candlelit gladioli completed the setting. The theater had heen changed for the occasion into a chapel com- plete to the last detail. That it was a complete chapel, second to none in beauty, is due to vast amount of time and effort expended by. the Commanding Officer, Capt. A. E. Buckley, USN, by the Special Ser- vices Department, under Lt. Ro- bert E. Sharrai, USN; and by the Public Works Department. The Rev. James Clyne, J. C. D., and the Rev. Geoffrey Gaughan, O. S. B., came down from the Catholic ‘University in Washington, D. C. to assist Chaplain Vincent de Paul Casey in the celebration of the Mass. Steve Wochy of the Cleveland Barons in the American Hockey League, scored 10 winning goals during the 1951-52 season, ing thought quickly an* earnestly away from the claims of matter to the allness of Spirit, and rea- soning carefully from the basis of spiritual causation. “The Christian Scientist prays by communing with God,” he explain- ed. “‘Because of his cultivated spiri- tual understanding of God he is able to do this intelligently and therefore with practical results.” He said the power of Christian Sci- is divine, “‘but it is to be onstrated on the human level.” when 1t calls for a PRESCRIPtION call your pharmacist GARDNER'S — PHARMACY — The Rexall Store 1114 TRUMAN AVENUE Corner Varela Streef DIAL 2-764] ACROSS FROM CITY HALL — GREENE ST. e) Worries — Why datoe... ween you can enjoy complete comfort, re- laxation and riding ease on the most modern motor coaches on American highways.
