applies himself To gain d better
understanding in divine Princi-
pie, and persists in using that
understanding in the affairs Of
his every day life. He must give
it expression to the Limit OF his
cognition, for a principle unex
pressed is as futile as a theory
untried.
Christian Science emphasizes
the fact that whom fear is elm
mated from the consciousness of
the sick man no matter what
the naturesof his illness he has
taken a long step towards re
covery. 1t declares also that
people who are habitually free
from fear, worry, anxiety, APP
prehenSiOn and the like are far
less susceptible to illness and
misfortune than others. 1t has
uncovered in fear an agency of
evil an enemy to health, a des-
troyer of peace and d bar to
mans progress heavenward.
1t is not to be wondered then
that the elimination of fear from
human consciousness is am inn
portant feature of Christian
Science.

DISCOURAGEMENT

Christian Science brings the Truth
to human comprehension, gives free
dom from whatever enslaves and
thus bestows mental. moral and
physical liberty. In the process of
liberation it sifts out certain per-
nicious practices and propensities,
generally regarded as harmless, but
which are to be stunned as allies Of
evil. 1t shows us that we have in
dulGed in moods and inclinations
that we believed were guileless. if
not commendable, but were in reaii-
ty neither wise nor harmless. We
find we have been warming in the
incubator of our favor, the eggs of
serpents that we believed belonged
to doves. Perhaps the most COM
NOR of these disease inviting habits
is encouragement. | daresay we
have all been on intimate terms with
it one or another and while we ;have
never found it cheerful company,
we have not looked upon it sa a sinis-
ter visitor. Yet that is just what
Christian Science shows it to be.
Discouragement wears the invis-
ible livery of evil and is constantly
and consistanly working for its mas
ter. 1t is always pulling down and
never building up.
Did you ever know anyone to ac-
complish anything while in the grip
Of Encouragement? 1t paralyzes eff
fort, stupefes thought and dissi-
pates purpose.
The discouraged man is as power
less in the hands Of evil as a batch
of dough in the hands of a baker.
He has no more backbone than a
putty doll. But unlike either dough
or putty he neither satisfies a long
ing or restores an unsightly blemish.
He is neither useful nor ornamental.
More than all of this Christian
Science discloses that the man habit
ually discouraged is not only an in
viting target for disease. but is al
ready striped with the colors of un.
belief. for he gloomily distrusts the
pos5er and goodness Of God Himself
This may startle some of you who
are accustomed to let yourselves be
robbed of your courage discour-
aged and to slide unresistingly in.

doubt with Encouragement for they

tell you that attempting to
change the condition Of a man $
body through mind is about as
sensible as Wishing dollars into
youl. bank account. 1t won't
work he Informs you, the sick
man will get worse in the one
case and your checks will be
thrown out in the other" !" And
vet this same intelligent citizen
will readily admit that a mans
body commonly undergoes sud
den and very marked changes
due entirely to mental causes.
He will admit that salt water
will flow from his eyes II he il
subjected to great grief. That
sudden fear will produce cold
perspifation. That anger will
cause the face to flush or pale,
the heart to thump, the voice to
change.
Now gricf, nnger and the like
are obviously mental, but be
cause their effects ON the body
is of everyday occurance, as
commonplace as eating and
drinking, the lesson they dis
close is lost upon the man who
hastens to censure Christian
Science for achieving what he
/. styles the impossible, yet which
has been a part of him since the
day when as a crying infant he
on his mothers arm shed his
first tears.
Ii then it is conceded that the
state of mind may disturb the
secretions, causing the tears to
flow; or that the state of mind
may quicken the action of the
heart, causing the blood to rush
to the face or away from it; or if
the state of mind can affect the
organs of the throat causing
huskiness then it is plain that
the state of mind may be held
accountable for ether derange- :
ments of tllesorgans of secretion,
of cirulaticn and Of speech. And
if of these, why not of the other
organs of the body. If changing
grief into JOY will stop the flow
OF tears, or in other words if a
change of thought will change
the flow of fluid to the eyes, why
will not a change of thought
change the flow of fluids to the
stomach. Is it not more ration
al then to treat dyspepsia with
mind than with tabloids and
powders?
And so it is with all other
bodily diseases and derange-
lnents, they have one and all
responded to the curative in
fiuence of Mind, administered in
Christian Science.
In contemplating God as in
finite Principle, we find our life
problems must be worked out
according to this unerring Prin-
ciple Of Being, or they will be
failures, precisely as failure fol

SCHOOL OBSERVES
A SOFT-SHlRT DAY
Three students at Rock Island High
Are Suspended for Their OBJ
jectional Acts.

Last week the Rock Island high
school boys announced Wednesday,
(today) would be the annual soft shirt
day and that every boy attending
the school should wear a shirt with a
soft collar, or run a chance of being
separated from his wearing apparel.
The greater number OF the boys wore
soft shirts today. Some of them came
In bright red and others wore shirts
which were equally hideous. The fac
ulty of the school objected to the red
shirt, and the boy who was wearing it
was sent home. On leaving he pass
ed It to another student, and before
II was finally taken from the school
several had worn IT.
Orville Harms, son OF the instructor
of manual training at the school, vast
ed three starched collars. This morn
ing he appeared with a nicely launder-
ed linen collar. II was torn of by the
boys. Harms resenting this, struck one
OF his assailants, and after an ex-
change of blows the boy who tore OF
the collar was suspended from school.
The rest OF the students have banded
together and have circulated q petition
stating that the suspension was unjust.
The greater number OF them were sent
from the school this afternoon. Three

Most of the crowd spent the night at

decided that while they were at it they
might as well clean out the crowd for
a few days and 80 they made a hur-

such calibre hang out, and they were

eff l Am Elected
Mayor of City"

In order that the electorate Of the
city may not be held in the dark az
to the policies Of candidates for may
or-the platform on which each pro
poses 10 stand, in the event Of election
throughout his four-year term-Tht
Argus has opened its columns to each
aspirant TO the first office under the
new form Of government to fully sci
forth his position. There are 10 can
didates for the mayoralty, and accord
ingly there should be as many platform
statements appearing in The Argus
between now and the primary date
Feb. 2s.
The voter has right to know In ad
vance what sort of administration he
may expect from a candidate before
he extends support at the polls. I'm
der the old system of government, we
had the nominees Of the different part
les. The candidate ordinarily stood
by the policies of his party, with an
occasional injection of the local Is
sue, if there happened 10 be one. When
the election was over, the successful
candidate for mayor proceeded 70
swing the official ak to make way for
the ones TO whom jobs had been prom
ised before election day.
Each candidate under the commits
sion form is obliged to stand on his
individual footing. Service that he
might have rendered to any particular
party in the past will not count Each
candidate comes forward as a citizen
confident in the belief that he can eff
GENTLY direct the government of his
home city. In so doing he is general
izing merely. The voters are not salts
fed to accept him on such representa-
ton. They want to know just where
he stands on all questions affecting
the moral and material welfare of
their city.
The platforms of the candidates for
mayor will be printed in The Argus as
soon as they are received.

ICE MOVING OUT;
NO DAMAGE DONE
Expected That Mississippi Will
Be Clear at This Point by
Night.
PILED HIGH ON SHORES
Break Begins Early In the Morn.
ing Above the Government
Bridge.

The ice started to move in the Mis-
sissippi river this afternoon at 2:45
and it is expected that the channel
will be practically clear before night
The ice until a few days ago, was OF
greater solidity than is usually the
case, for there was little snow during
the formation Of the crystal. AS con-
sequence it was expected that the ice
in going out possibly would cause
some trouble, but so far it looks as
though it will pass this point without
gorging. At various points along the
shores, It is piled TO a considerable
height, but 1t is hardly likely that IT
will be forced far enough to reach any
place where damage may be caused.
CROWDS ON LEVEE-
The news that the ice was moving,
spread rapidly and the shore on either
side was soon crowded with spectators.
The Oldest inhabitant, who has been
camping in close proximity to the riv-
er since the warm weather set In,
was the first one to report the ice
movement. He went back few years,
but in his "reminiscences was unable 70
recall any season when the bridge
went out at an earlier date, after the
river had been frozen over any length
of time. The river was closed at this
point in December. 1t was on the
nights of the 18th and 18th, that the
cold weather forced Commodore Mar
Gus L. Henderson to pilot the ferry
Rock Island to the Kahlke boat yards,
where it was placed in winter quar-
tiers. During the past few days, the
commodore has been overlooking the
ferry and placing it in readiness for
lust such conditions as are being
brought about right now. If the chan-
mel is clear tomorrow it is needless to
saw that the commodore will begin
transporting passengers between ROCK
Island and Davenport.
BREAK BEGINS AT A. NJ.
II was only a few days ago that IT
was possible to drive across the ice at
Fulton. This morning shortly after
O'Clock, the ice in the river, above the
government bridge broke loose, and
until noon It looked as though there
might possibly be a gorge at the
bridge. The ice piled high and the
dam which it formed, caused the water
to rise to a stage OF 1915 feet When
the river froze over in December the
stage was eighttenths OF foot less
than the gauge. The difference in the
stage now and at that time is there
fore 1885. With the movement OF the
ice. It is certain that the water will fall
again.
The movement was accompanied by
the usual roaring due to the breaking
of the large cakes of crystal.
