GROSS SPEAKS ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
 AT LYRIC THEATRE
tcontinued from Page Five,

God is infinite good and no good thing will be withheld from them that walk uprightly,' are obedient to divine law.
 Jesus commanded his students to heal the sick and cast out devils as well as preach the gospel, and this command was faithfully adhered to until mortal belief substituted material methods for Gods power in the healing of sickness.
 Christianity as Jesus taught 1t is ef- fectual; being effectual. 1t is practical, and because it Is practical 1t is the privi- lege of every man to find in his own ex- perience the proof of its truth and power. Christianity is not rightly appre- hended until it becomes practical. for 1t Is not a matter of faith merely. The scriptures declare that faith without works is dead.
 '"rhere Is great 4oed of a religion which heals. and a healing system which Is thor oughly Christian in theory and practice. Christian Science meets these require- ments, It heals both sickness and sin. It relies upon and recognizes no power apart from God. It's teachings are found avail able in all the activities of human en- deavor It renders effectual aid in every time of need. and is proving itself to be the one universal remedy for human ills."

Small Boats Full of Dead

But at the forty sixth mile I saw a dead horse. half on the land and half in the water. and little further dead camel. Then the excitement began. First one dead Turk was seen, then two, then a batch of seven or eight, and at the forty-seventh mile a crowd of them, with a number of broken small boats. full of hanging over the side with leg gone others without an arm, and some you could not recognize as men at all. Just here the banks are quite high, but they slope down to the water and on these slopes were dead Turks in all sorts of positions. Some had fallen with their heads and shoulders Just in the water. climbed up in the rigging to see what was over the top of the bank. ana there saw almost hundreds.
 .It appeared that the Turks were seen coming and the warships in the canal al- lowed them to throw a pontoon across. When they were all gathered at this spot the warships let fly. They had to retire after losing several of their guns. This place was Kintara, few miles down the Bitter Lakes. The battle oc- cured on the previous day.
 "On arrival at the lakes we anchored for the night with all lights out and among about 9 other ships.
 "FTghting was going on all night a little further up S+he canal, and we thought we should be held up in the lakes, but we started off the next morn ing, with our bridge and deck protected by sandbags.
 ..From here to Suez we passed camp after camp of soldiers. Most of them had been in action. The Turks were about eight miles away. A

There were some low sandhills about five miles away ard could see men on this ridge. The British had several thousand men and six guns marching over the flat ground for this ridge.
 q don't suppose many people have had or will have the chance that we had to go straight through the middle of a battlefield. before they have even had chance to bury the dead. The eff feet of these naval guns must be awful. and from the curious position of the killed they must have been dead almost before they reached the ground. Occa- cfonally you would notice man who ap- peared to have struggled. but most lay evidently where they fell.''

First Evidence of Fight

About the thirtieth mile we passed the Indian marine cruiser Hardinge, and here was our first evidence of there hav- ing been a fight. for her funnel was gone all the way down one side and the other side was riddled with bullets and her bridge gone. Of course ships in the canal pass within few feet of each other, so we could see everything. Her captain and pilot, who were on the bridge at the time. were killed, and about 16 others were wounded.
 From this time on we passed sev- era ,warships and troops were on both sides of the canal. We amused ourselves by throwing tins of cigarettes out to them. We cleared all the cigarettes from the bar.
 All this time we were going at eight miles an hour. which is three miles more than the speed limit, so 1t was evident that they wanted to get us through the canal as quickly as possible.
 At the fortieth mile the men in the trenches told us that they had been en- gagged with the enemy on the previous day, and that the Turks were now about eight miles off. I went up on the deck and saw troops in the distance but could not say whether they were Turks or not. From the forty-second mile the banks of the canal are high and I could not see any great distance except betwen occa- sional gaps.

IN MIDST OF BATTLE
 FOR THE ESUEZ CANAL
Ship Passed Through Before
 Fighting Was Over
TURKS BADLY BEATEN
British 'Warships Allowed Enemy to Throw PontoOn Across Canal and Then Opened Fire Into Massed
 Troops With Terrible Effect

Cairo, April 3.-(Correspondenc of the Associated Press. )-There were two steamers bound from England to India which passed through the Suez canal while the attack by the Turkish troops was actually In progress. One of these carried a considerable number of passen- gers who were privileged to get a more complete panoramic view of big bat tlefield than has probably been the good fortune of nonmlitary observers in any other field of action. They not only saw fragments of the repulsed Turks at Kin tara, but also the advance of British troops into the desert in their wide flank ing movement further down the canal.
 letter from one of these passengers says in part:
 "A few minutes after we left Port Said notice was sent around that passen- gers were to keep to the port decks, as Turkish snipers were at work on the north side of the canal.
 For the first 10 miles all the low lying land had been flooded, but from there onward we commenced to see troops en- trenched. Every tenth mile was a camp, and about every 100 yards between were small trenches containing about dozen Indians. Further up the troops were mostly New zealanders and Australians.
