By JAMES A. EDGERToN.

1T has been only a trife over two
years since the Emmanuel move
E ment started, and yet it has spread
into many countries and into
scores Of churches. Today it is pop
ular topic in newspapers, magazines
and medical journals and for the most
part is receiving unstinted praise. Is
it passing fad or the beginning of a
new era not only in the church, but in
medicine and in the health and spirit
of the race generally? The thought
less may take the first view, but those
who look into the matter more deeply
are concluding that there is something
in the movement which is represented
not only In the Emmanuel cult, but in
Christian Science and the New Thought
that the mind does have an influence
over the body, that mental healing at
least of some diseases is a demonstrate
ed fact and that the result of all these
new schools will be to make a more
optimistic, more healthy and a more
spiritual humanity.
DR.. Elwood Worcester, the leader of
the new departure, is an Episcopal
clergyman in Boston, the birthplace of
SO many movements that have affected
the thought not only of this country,
but of the world. Boston is both the
Hub and the incubator of the uni
verse. American independence, aboll-
ton, transcendentalism, the New
Thought, Christian Science, the EN-
manuel movement and kindred isms
cults and crusades all were born in
, Boston or in the shadow Of Boston.
A Buckeye by Birth.
DR.. worcester was not only fortu
nate in choosing birthplace for his
movement, but also in selecting one
! for himself. He came into this world

The Val Ianauaue.

There is in use on the west coast Of
Africa system of writing of native
invention which is said to be success
fully competing with English writing.
1t Is called the Val language and was
Invented by Doalu Bukere, assisted by
five Of his friends. The characters re-
semble Egyptian hieroglyphics, but the
tongue is said to be harmonious, rela-
lively easy to pronounce and with a
grammar that is reasonable and far
from difficult. 1t is being more and
more used in west Africa and will
probably become the dominant form
of native speech in Liberia and ada.

Disciples of Quimby.

More directly, however, these move
ments in America, where the mind

birth, came from Phineas P. Quimby

that could give birth to AParsifal'

nishes fitting pulpit from which to
preach tc the world this new theory
of a sound body from a sound mind.
this latest development of the philoso-
ply of the Nazarene.
Yet in giving credit for the Emman
uel and kindred cults it is not just to
overlook the Anglo-SaAon world and
especially the American end of it. In
England the great forerunner Of the
movement was Bishop Berkeley, Of
whom Byron makes facetious mention
In "Don Juan"
Since Bishop Berkeley says there is no
matter
And proves it, tits no matter what he
In spite Of the Byronic cynicism it
did matter what Bishop Berkeley said,
as these movements which have sprung
up century after his death bear am
pie witness.
Byron's play on words recalls an
other familiar saw, used much by the
late President Mark Hopkins Of Will
l1ams, I believe it was which ran
somewhat in this wise:
What is mind? No matter
What is matter? Never mind.
In America the earliest manifesto
tation of this philosophy was Ralph
Waldo Emerson and his transcenden-
tai school, Emerson did not teach the
faith cure, 1t is true, but his system
so far as he had formulated system
looked in that direction. There is nc
one that the modern New Thoughte1
is fonder of quoting than Emerson.
Disciples Of Quimby.
More directly. however, these move
ments in America, where the mind
healing cults proper all had their
| birth, came from Phineas P. Quimby
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-12-09

and his pupils. A series Of recent ar
uicles in one Of the magazines claims
chat Mrs. Eddy herself studied under
Quimby. 1t is certain that Julius
Dresser and DR.. w. r. Evans, who
wrote the first mind cure books, were
disciples of his and that the New
Thought, which is the parent body of
spiritual healing in modern times, is
his direct offspring.
The Emmanuel movement is more
recent manifestation Of the same phi
losophy that is included in New
Thought. In principle it differs scarce
ly at all. The only divergence is in
details and methods of application,
For example, the New Thought, while
it does not antagonize the medical
fraternity, does not always cooperate
with it, although some Of the New
Thought healers are licensed physi-
clans, while others work with licensed
physicians. The Emmanuel movement
has it's corps of doctors to whom all
cases are at first referred. If the
| disease is organic the doctors keep
the case, and if functional the mental
healers take it. This has been crit
ic1sed as a somewhat arbitrary divi-
sion, but seems to form working
basis of union between psychotherapy
and the materia medica, or, to put it
in everyday English, between faith
cure and drugs.
Another minor difference between
the two schools is that the New
| Thought works both outside and III
side the church, while the Emmanuel
movement is entirely inside. A third
difference is found in the fact that
some New Thought practitioners
charge, while others depend wholly on
| voluntary contributions In the En-
manuel movement voluntary contribu.

Always Accompanies Life.

Now, this healing force ever attends
the life principle Because it always
accompanies life it may be said to be
an attribute of life. Intelligence is
also an attribute of life, since there is
some sort Of intelligence, however ru-
dimentary, In every living organism.
Between the observation-disclosures, life
and the power of self repair or the
healing principle-there is a mysteri-
GUS bond Of union since they are thus
always found together. All that men
tai healing does is to make use Of this
connection. Medicine at best works
on the surface. Mental healing goes
to the root by invoking the power Of
mind over the attendant power Of self
repair inherent in the organism.
| Theory aside, experiment. has proved
that mental healing does cure some
diseases. Physicians admit this and
always have admitted it. The Emman-
uel movement takes advantage Of a
principle recognized from of old. 1t
obeys the Masters command to heal
the sick. In this work Dr. Worcester
and his assistant, DR.. McComb, are
leading the way within the church,
but marching in the same direction is
a great host confident in the faith that
this work will constitute the next great
forward step Of western civilization
Canon Robert Ellis Jones Of st.
Johns cathedral, in New York, who is
an intimate personal friend of DR..
Worcester, recently told the writer
that the founder of the new departure
had dreamed of the step for ten years
before it was taken. A man who can
hold an ideal so long and has the
courage, faith and ability to realize 1t
is entitled to all honor when his vision
assumes the form of world crusade.
1t is but fitting, therefore, that this
momentous work should take its name
from DR.. Worcester's own church and
should go down to the ages as the
Emmanuel movement.

body, and finally that the spiritual Is
the real world and the material only
It's manifestat ion-in these and kim
.dred beliefs the two systems are in
essential agreement Likewise and
this is perhaps most important Of all
both of them and all other faith cure
movements as well claim to draw their
Inspiration from the Christ He heal
ed the sick himself and commanded
his followers to do so. These modern
movements therefore regard them
selves as the fruit of the tree planted
In Galilee 900 years ago.
A Personal Testimony.
As never hide my light under a
bushel, but stand for the faith that is
tn me, it is but frank and candid to
enter personal testimony at this
point / believe in the direct word,
the sort given at the old fashioned ex-
perience meeting. I am especially in
terested in this Emmanuel movement
for the reason that I have advocated
ldentically the same thing for the past
seven years, or five years before DR..
Worcester started his work. In news
papers, magazines and books and in
lectures delivered in Denver, New
York, Brooklyn, Boston, Washington
and elsewhere 1 have written and
| talked on this precise line wherever
given an opportunity to do so. My
| contention was that what the world
needs is to return to the fountain, to
original and genuine Christianity as
contained in the utterances and the
spirit of the Man of Nazareth. This
Is it's need in politics, In healing and
In life. Out of the original Christian
harmony some notes have been drop
ped, notably: the healing of man and
the brotherhood Of man. These lost
chords should be restored. The cure
of man morally and physically is not
Christian Science; it is Christianity.
In this work the doctor and the won
derful advance of medical science
should not be ignored. Any method
Of healing is divine method. The
ailing horse hunts for certain herb
/ that will give relief 1t is the life
principle that heals, and anything
which assists in that process is good.
But faith-faith in the God who is
perfect love, perfect truth, perfect
health, perfect joy and perfect good
is the most potent Of all. GAS man
th1nketh in his heart SO is he." That
is but a meager statement, but be-
lieve it now as have believed it ever
since I saw that light. The Emmanuel
movement comedies practically at ev-
cry point with the thing I have advo-
Gated and dreamed. I therefore bid
1t godspeed with the faith that it
means better day to the world.
At the breaking of a stone there is
no effort in the stone itself to repair
the injury, but if a tree, an animal, a
man or any other living organism be
wounded it at once starts to mend its
own hurt. Medicine or surgery does
not heal, and no intelligent physician
has ever claimed that it does. Its
only Office is to remove certain OBJ
stacles, bring about certain physical
effects and assist the healing force
whatever it is, which inheres in the
living organism itself.

We received your box of candy in

and that it was very much enjoyed is
expressing it mildly. 1t was the best
candy we have ever tasted The choco-
late and bon bon creams were soft and
delicious-the flavors perfectly lovely
The card in the box says they were all
made in Webster. If Webster has
candy factory which manufactures such
delicious sweet meats, our old home is
certainly to be congratulated, as we can
buy nothing here, in the city, to com
pare with them in flavor and freshness
Wishing you, and all our friends,
