and sickness, pain, distress, sorrow,
and misery are the results. It is a
dictator, a tyrant, a despot, and the
human body is its obedient servant.
Yet it may be stripped of all it's as
sumed power and aggressiveness, and
be reduced to nothingness.
Christian Science is revealing that
the human mind, this "carnal mind
as Paul calls it, is rendered absolute
ly powerless to do evil when it is con-
fronted by the divine Mind-God
Himself; that its so-called laws of
health and sickness are annulled and
obliterated when confronted by the
laws Of God, and that this mortal
mind may be controlled, directed, in
1uenced, and ultimately destroyed by
immortal Mind, which, in the Ian
guage of the text book of Christian
Science 'must be acknowledged as
supreme in the physical realm, So
called, as we'll as in the spiritual. -
Is. & H. 427.)
Knowing God.
If at this stage of his enlighten-
ment it is explained to the beginner
that right knowledge of God, divine
Mind, is essential to his progress, he
naturally asks, How am 1 to learn
to know God, divine Mind, that His
benign influence may harmonic my
troubled life and heal this ailing
body that gives me so much distress !?
How am I to understand the laws
under which He operates? Who is
to teach me?"
Jesus of Nazareth was not only
the greatest physician but also the
greatest teacher the world has ever
known. He taught men to know
God, and now, as then, mans great
need is right understanding of God
and His law.
Most men know so little about God
as Life, Truth, and Love, supreme on
earth as in heaven, that they think
they can get along just as we'll with
out such knowledge as with it. Yet
there is nothing within the range of
human consciousness that is more es-
sential to mans happiness, health
and true success.
The world today is profoundly
wise and learned in all that pertains
to materiality, but it is centuries be-
hind in spiritual understanding.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1914-10-14

It knows so much about matter
that it can move mountains; 1t knows
so little of God that it is afraid Of a
germ.
The average man of today rarely
regards a knowledge of God as at all
essential to his health, usefulness, or
as affecting his daily affairs. If he
thinks of God at all, he generally
thinks of him as a far away, mysteri-
Gus being, hard to approach and
harder to understand, whose ac-
auaintance he can put off until some
more convenient time when he is not
so busy. Few people. have any ac-
curate or tangible concept of God.
Outside of Christian Science, there
are as many erroneous conceptions
about God as there are people to con-
.ceive them, yet there is only one true
idea of God, and it is to be learned
through the study of the life and
lessons of Jesus the Christ as eluci-
dated in the text book of Christian
Science.
Too many of us have never grown
beyond our childhood beliefs about
God planted by old theology, ferti-
lized by fear, cultivated by ignor-
ance, which depict God as fearful
and mighty potentate, ruling the af
fairs of men in a. way that is hard to
understand and still harder to ap-
prove. Too many of us still think of
Him as God of moods and impulses,
a magnified man with mans pecul-
iarities and attributes, man-made,
man-like, man-punishing God, the
creator of both good and evil, health
and sickness, who is believed to OPP
crate under mysterious laws that no
one can understand or follow.
Until this fearfully wrong concep-
ton of God is corrected and a right
knowledge of him is established,
mortals do not comprehend the mo-
dus of true mind-healing in Chris
tian Science.
Right Idea of God
We will then ask the beginner to
set aside for the time his inherited
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1914-10-14

and impedimentive beliefs about God
and to consider with an open mind a
little of the teachings of Christian
Science about God, good, the God
whom Jesus taught men to know.
Let us explain to him that God Is
Love; that God is Mind; that He is
Spirit; the infinite Principle of being;
that He is Truth, that He is Life;
that He is omnipotence, omniscience,
omnipresence. Do these definitions
of God quickly appeal to the man who
has always thought of Him as a f.
mite parsonage subject to the limita-
tions of time, space, and circum-
stance? Perhaps not. But let us
propose as an aid towards a fuller
comprehension, that he choose from
among these definitions the one
which most nearly approaches his
conception of the highest possible
good, and let his thought dwell upon
that. A mans highest ideas of God

always be that high.
In forming a new idea of God, the
beginner is not asked to cast aside
his present beliefs only because they
are old. Whatsoever is good or true
or helpful in his present understand
ing OF God is to be retained, for all
good everlastingly belongs to God
and proceeds from Him.

DEPTH OF OUR GRANITE DEPOSITS

All persons interested in the granite
industry, including pessimists, will be
glad to know that there is a depth OF
$50 feet of granite in the Bethel quarry
region that fact having been determined
by the operations in digging for an ar
tesian well. Those who are prone to
take a gloomy view of any situation
are frequently heard to remark that soon
Vermont's granite supply will be eX-
hausted and then one of the chief indus
tries OF the state will have to close
down. 1t doesn't seem likely that the
supply will soon be exhausted if condt-
tions elsewhere are the same as in the
Bethel region and providing OF course,
the material underneath is OF as good
quality as that nearer the surface. In
fact, we may confidently took forward
to unnumbered decades of quarrying OPP
erations in the land already uncovered
and they we may turn to new deposits

that war stops literature have never believed. "

produced great literature They seldom call forth

In poetry it is not the poems of occasion that
endure but the poems that have come into being
independently, not as the result of momcntons hap

novelist and The dramaDist with the material of
literature
For instance the Germans, as every one will
admit, have shown extraordinary vaor but we
do not think of celebrating that valor in poetry
1t does not thrill the modern writer's of bvponc
centuries
When We think of the valor Of the Germans
our emotion IS not admiration, but pity And the
reason for tins is that fighting is no longer our

fore it is no longer our deal b."
