SAYS TO ONES BODY CAN BE
MORE THAN SEVEN YEARS OLD

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 1.-[Editor
Herald: What is the body? 1t is a
material concept, a servant of the
mind, faithful even unto death. One
thinks he has swollen feet, accom-
panied with pain, and in response to
his mental condition the feet reflect
the thought. Another thinks sore
throat, and so the throat becomes in
famed. Still another fears rheumatic
pains, while some one else fears in
famed eyes, and the faithful servant,
the body, reflects as mirror the OBJ
jects presented to it by the belief of
the mind.
Thousands think gray hair, stiff
joints, Withered hands, wrinkled faces,
faltering footsteps and all the ct
ceteras associated in the carnal mind
with what is called "old age" and
when about so years old this mortal
body, begins to manifest these symp-
toms and at least WHEN the mind be-
| comes paralyzed with fear and be-
+, lief in death, the body accommodating
| 1y responds and manifests the condi-
tion called death. All physical philos-
ophers agree that the body changes
entirely every seven years; hence no
body can be more than seven years old.
| There is no intelligence, no life, no
causatton in matter. Hence there is
not, never was and never can be any
| sensation or pain in the body.
| What is mind? Intelligence, the
| only I AM. The mind of God is in
finite wisdom, Divine knowledge of
! truth eternal.
What is God? God is love, truth,
| life, all power, all wisdom, the founda-
| tion of all existence, fixed, changeless
| law, Divine principle.
Truth is the spiritual, not the mate
rial; substance, not shadow; Truth un-
| the sinner.
know the truth and the truth will
make you free. Jesus.
His truth shall be thy shield and
/ buckler. Psalms.
Life, the eternal action of God; that
| which makes conscious existence eter-
nal. Spirit, Divine truth.
Il am the resurrection and the Life;
he that believeth in me, though he
were dead, yet shall he live; and who
| soever liVeth and belieVeth in me shall
| never die. Jesus Christ.
1t is impossible to be sick or to suf-
| fer and at the same time UNDER
| STAND the teachings of Christ, who
| says: 81 am the light of the world; he
! that follOWeth me shall not walk in
darkness, but shall have the light OF
! life" And, again: Fear not. little
| flock, for it is your fathers good pleas
! ure to give you the kingdom" g..
! Every one that harkens to these
words shall never taste of DEATH
| Jesus.
Life is God and God is the all eter-
nal Life, For to be carnally-minded is
| death; but to be spiritually minded is
life and peace" I. H. S.

JAPAN

A AMBASSADOR TAKAHIRA of JAP
A an said in his Lincoln day speech:
~ 'We have never had any idea for
a moment of displeasing your people
much less of waging war against you.
1t is for this reason that when dis
pleasure was manifested in this coun-
try in relation to the japanese immi-
grafton we readily consented to the
adjustment of the question under GER
tain conditions by limiting the infAni-
grafton of laborers to the minimum
number. notably since the last of
July" ...-.,-..
Thus doth the wisdom of the jingoes
become foolishness. 1t is well Califor-
MIA has not committed itself to legisla-
tion which, in view of the fact that
during the latter half of 1908 the emil
grafton Of japanese from the United
States and Hawaii to Japan exceeded
the immigration by $500, would have
been absurd.

WRITER OUTLINE IDEAS
ON EMMANUEL MOVEMENT

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 1O.-[Editor
Herald: Anent the Emmanuel move
ment, which is arOusing much interest
in this city since the visit of Dr.
Worcester, ! would like to set forth a
few ideas. To many this movement is
doubtless a source of much amusement.
At the outset the gaping world was
told it was to be a return to primitive
Christianity, to the healing method
employed by Christ and his followers.
We are then informed that medical
diagnosis is necessary to determine the
character of the disease If it is or
game, it must be handled by physi-
clans; if merely functional, it may be
safely turned over to God. His power
being necessarily limited, He cannot be
expected to do much in the way Of Sc
tan Scientists, who do heal organic
disease, Indignantly repudiate connec-
tion with this movement.
A study of the New Testament and
the early history OF Christianity fails
to reveal any similarity between Chris
tan healing and the Emmanuel move
ment. There is abundant testimony to
show that before Constantine blew out
the flame Of Christianity and lighted
the candles of ecclesiasticism the power
to heal and restore was common among
the followers of the new faith; but
they did not work in conjunction with
physicians. If the church would be
honest with herself she would admit
that her position in this instance is, as
always, a question Of economic deter
minism. 1t is like this: The Christian
Science movement, full of imperfections
though if be, is causing a serious loss
to both church and medical profession.
Something must of necessity be done
to check this; the church could not af-
ford to antagonize the wealthy physi-
clans among her members; physicians
saw opportunity for strictly ethical ed
vertising, and as a result we have the
Emmanuel movement to meet these
needs. w. B. T.

EDUCATION

HT E ARE assured provision will
w be made for the complete educa-
ton Of all the children of Los
Angeles, including the children who
wish to become students at the Poly
technic high school, and whose. life
bent will be interfered with If they are
forced into educational grooves for
which they are untitled. Rather than
have it said that Los Angeles cannot
educate even one child who earnestly
wishes education, extraordinary meas
ures should be taken. If the Polytech-
mic high school will not accommodate
all the students who wish to take the
Polytechnic course, and who have an
absolute and undeniable right to take
that course, then let us pitch tents, if
necessary, and engage the extra teach
ers who are needed and continue the
work, which is most highly appreciated
by this community because every one
realizes the Los Angeles Polytechnic
course offers the best practical educa-
tion in the world. We are certain many
citizens of Los Angeles would be more
UONpAS NtS"PpOllIISu NY AalAuIO W sc
cure the education they desire for their
children than they would by any ma
terial mishap that might happen to
them. AS long as there are halls TO
hire, yes, and congregations which
would gladly allow the use Of their
church buildings for the overflow from
the Polytechnic, teachers should be
engaged and apparatus secured, and the
work should go on. We have no doubt
the capable and practical men on the
board of education will find solution
for the grave problem presented by the
difference between demand for and sup
ply of accommodations at the Poly
technic high school.

DENIES ECONOMISTS CLAIM
THAT MAJORITY NOW RULES

LOS ANGELES, Feb. s-TEditor
Herald1: Why will Economist persist
in claiming that the evils of capitalistic
rule today exempIify the results of ma
jority rule? We have not, and never
yet had, majority rule Majority vote
does not constitute majority rule and
never can, so long as economic con-
ditions are such as to give minority
the power to control the majority vote.
When we become economically free
then majority vote will mean majority
rule and we shall for the first time in
our history have an opportunity to see
what majority rule means.

has Savage to gain by his determined
efforts to make a Titus Oates of him
self as far as the people of Los An

fornia are concerned? What motive
impels him to oppose the wishes of his

market II it acted logically. should have
shown a better decline today than oc-
cuIrcd. as the blcs and the crop news
both seemed bearish for the moment. but
the truth Is. the big lines have been
cleaned out and want the cotton back.
and the students of the situation can
readily see that these prices DO not in
any way discount the probability OF n
crop under 12i million bales. An effort
will be made 10 cheaper values on Mon
day, but it is very doubtful If the effort
will meet with success. If the Spinncrs
of the world only take normal amount
OF cotton from now on; the consumption
OF the world will PROBABLY equal any year &

mills were shut down last October and
November. On all setbacks, cotton is a
