roads are OF the permanent" kind,
defined by the statute to be hard-sur-

'THEOSOPHY
EXPOUNDED
in LECTURE
Man is Not Punished for His Sins But
By Them, Declares Max WardaII
at City Hall

'Man is not punished for his sins,
but by them" declared Max Wardall
last night in his lecture at the city hall.
There is no God in the heavens that
Furnishes us when we do wrong and re-
wards us when we do right" said the
lecturer, "There is only His will i'm
pressed upon all living things and His
will is expressed in natural law Whe-
we deviate from the law scSner or la
ter reaction sets in and we suffer.
This is the law of compensation and
it works with infinite nicely and pre-
cision. 1t even takes account of idle
and foolish words, AS the Master
said, For every idle word that men
speak they shall account thereof at the
day of judgm ent The day of judg-
ment is not postponed until some far
off time reckoning, but each mdment
of time we are being judged in ma
ture's court of justice. We must not
worry when some one does us an in
jury, for he who wrongs another can
not escape from the consequences Of
his act any more than the unstable
house can escape from the law Of grav-
bur part in the little drama
should be to hold still and seek by for
giveness and good win to lessen his
suffering"
Tonight Mr.. Wardall will lecture on
1.-THE Real Supermen" at the same
time and place. The lectures are free
and all are given welcome.
