The prompt acquittal of MIS-
V Edna Henson, tllrlSli'"
Scinnce healer, arrested ut 'ai'-
Won City. Texas, for pract'c'h"
medicine without a license, IS
str;kino illustration Of the prog
rcsS of the times.
Had Mrs Henson been arrested
tvcutv wears ago on charge OF
this nature, she could not nave
been convicted before the judge
asccndcd thc bench. or before the
;urv was drawn. Public opinion
vonld have marked her for lis
victim She would have been
the butt Of criticism and the prey
If ridicuIc. The belief she pfao'
ticed or professcd, or whatever
thc term may be, would, OF II.
self have constituted a plea OF
emily in any American court OF
justice
Rrt the times have changed
and men and women nave
CHANGED with them. There Is no
LONGER a disposition to restrict
RELIGIOUS thought; to CONNIE
spiritual doctrine and belief with
in conventional boundaries
Fundamentally, Christianity VIII
never change. II i, based upon
faith that is chained to rock,
Whether this faith takes the
form Of Christian Science, or
what not. it respected today, ne
inc rightly appraised at It's
value TO humankind as a moral
and spiritual uplift. Years ago
il was different. But the world
is advancing; the "rule OF rca-
son" is unconsciorsly applied TO
those things with which we come
into daily contact. Ollr l'NeS
are no longer measured by our
own individual standard; we look
bevoud orr own rramped environ
ments and try to see others AZ
they see themselves, aud not as
they appear to our narrow an"
often selfish vision.
This is indeed the era OF ND
ertv. so long as thought is IN
tellioent, it is free. 80 long as
religion is uplifting, it Is hamper
ed by public sentiment or Jaw
The right to worship God accord
inn to ones conscience is conced-
ed TO every man, woman and IN
trllioent child. Rituallsm does
not count half so much IN TN"
Christianity Of today as faiih
aud works and preccpt and eX-
ample.
The sincerity Of the Christian
Scientists is not to be questioned,
II is as strong as the faith of the
the devotces Of any widely-known
branch of the Christian church
The Scientists are entitled to
their belief; they are entitled to
the happiness and comfort 1t g1ves
them. And it is a notable stgn
Of the advance Of civilization
that those who disagree, doemat-
icaIly and otherwise, with CHRIS
tan Scientists are unwilling TO
interfere with the development

It is a revolutionary concession
to religious liberty. And, on the
whole, il does modern civilization
credit.

more tnan one minimu um payment a

Understood the company will appeal
to higher court. RulIf V. Lawrence
of Freehold represents Mrs. Sickles.
Judge Foster holds hat Mrs. Sickles

tract,r be says in his decision, the
defendant has not violated the COM
