The Theosophical meeting at Odd Eel
low hall last night was a large one in
spite of the rain. The lecture on Death
was postponed and Abbott Clark gave a
talk on the general principles of Theoso-
ply, which was in part as follows:
Theosophy is the science OF life and the
art of living. 1t gives the science of life
because 1t teaches the laws OF nature and
how to live up to them. 1t teaches not
only the mechanical laws of physical
nature, but all the laws of mind and of
the soul and spirit. All the laws which
relate man to himself. his fellow man
and to God. In every respect Theosophy
is natural, logical and common sense. 1t
never denies fact nor ignores princi
pie, but sympathizes all departments of
the universe into one complete whole
whose laws extend throughout every part
The great law of nature which produces
effects from causes and restores harmony
the Testament It is stated, LAS we SOW
50 shall ye reap; as ye mete it shall be
measured unto you again. The hides
tructibility OF matter and force and cause
and effect and evolution when applied to
man produces reincarnation by which
each man makes himself throughout the
whole course of his evolutionary journey.
Mr.. Leader then spoke on the esoteric
keys to the Christian scriptures.
Orange j. Clark spoke as follows on the
power of thought:
"As a man thinketh so is he," applies
to every. department of life. Our actions
are the result of our thoughts. We can
not act without first thinking, and the
character of any particular thought is de
termined mostly by the tendencies we
have set up by past thinking. Thoughts
are things and forces and live in the
mental atmosphere. They chrystalize
around the individual. forming habits
and molding the character. Everything
that man is, is the result of his own
thinking and all that We meet in life is
the result of past thoughts and actions,
whether in this body or in previous
states. The thoughts we think ana
mental forces we send out affect others !;
for this reason the whole race rises or
falls together.

On all deiusions, political or social,
