MINISTER SEES GOOD
IN CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Rev. Earle Whitley Says 1t Is Protest
Against Idea that Suffering
Is Necessary.

In a sermon on mind and Matter
yesterday morning at the Vermont Ave-
nue. Christian Church before a large con-
gregation, the pastor, Rev. Earle VIII
fey, took the position that the reality Of
matter. evil and disease must be recog-
nized and reckoned with. but that these
things can be controlled and overcome
by the power of God working through
the human mind.
While dissenting from some of the
teachings of Christian Science, DR.. Will
fey commended much that Is found in
that form Of religion. and urged on
church members generally the cultivation
OF the fine spirit of optimism. wholesome
ness and faith that characterizes its fol-
lowers
Beginning with the philosophy of Des-
cartes in the middle ages, DR.. Wilfley
sketched the development of the various
modern cults of metaphysics. which he
said number more than sixty to his
knowledge. OF these he discussed the
three principal forms. known as Chris
tian Science, psychotherapsutics and the
Emanuel movement.
DR.. Wilhey expressed high apprecia-
tion of Christian Science, as a protest
against ultra gross materialism and
against the doctrine that suffering is A
necessity and is sent by God. and as a
plea against agnosticism.

the time that II was for the benefit OF
Gen. Grant he was not named in the

President Lincoln had summoned Gen
Grant to come TO Washington from the

way. the President. some members Of his
Cabinet, and Mrs. Lincoln being in the

terrupted by a cry: Here comes Gen.
Grant
Immediately President Lincoln left his
place in the receiving line and hurried
to the door leading to the Red Room from
the vestibule. where he met Gen. Grant

recognized him. although they had never
met before. My curiosity had led me to

Lincoln say, Gen Grant I believe this
is the first time We tavS ever met To
which Gen. Grant replied. Yes, Mr.. Presi-

THE rest OF the conversation was
lost to me is the two men came closer
together and moved away. talking in
lower tones ! recall Seward and Stan

general, and that Mrs. Lincoln also
greeted him cordially. Soon Gen.
Grant was hustled into the East Room,
and as he sat on a sofa he was sur
rounded by a great crowd. He seemed
modest and somewhat bored by the
attention showered upon him.
Il do not believe there is another
man alive who witnessed that meet
ing. and ! surely doubt IL there is any
alive who can recall the first words
that ever passed between Lincoln and
Grant. 1t was understood in Washing

doubt about Grant accepting the COM
mission He took the position that IL

made public by the State department of
agriculture. The reports received from
township assessors show that there are
3s, 092 go fowls on Iowa farms and that
the egg production for twelve months
amounts to s7.5is.751 dozen.
The department estimates the value Of
poultry and eggs for a year as $500, 600.
This is more than the annual output of
all the gold mines In Alaska or Califor-
mia or Colorado or any State in the Union.
Iowa's poultry and egg crop for year
would buy $1,000 automobiles at $500 each.
This would allow one car to every thirty
FIVE persons in the State. The per capita
production of eggs in Iowa is AZ dozen
or one and half for every person in
the state every day in the year.
