SCIENTISTS RESIST
MISTAKEN SYSTEMS
AND NOT PERSONS

The first of the annual Christian
Science lectures to be given in the
new Christian Science church on
North A street, drew a crowd last
night which completely filled every
corner of the little building. Edward
A. Merritt, C. B. S., of Cleveland, a
member of the Board of Lectureship
of the First Church of Christ, Scien-
list, Boston, Mass, was the lecturer.
Mr. Merritt declared the Scientists
are waging fight against false sys-
TENS, not persons, and are always
constructive. He related the story OF
Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy's discovery OF
Christian Science in 1866 and her ad-
vocacy of spiritual and mental heal
ing which resulted in the formation
of the great church.
Religion, according to the popular
view, may be defined as the acts and
forms through which men express
their concepts of God and seek to
commune with Him." said Mr. Merritt.
Consider the simplicity of the teach
ings of Jesus. He makes two all-im-
portant demands upon his followers,
namely, to preach and to heal.
THE demand of this age is proof of
the practical availability of every pro-
duct of human effort. That it may be
uplifted, the race needs the knowledge
of that Science which Jesus demon
strated when He cleansed the lepers,
healed the sick, raised the dead, and
gave his promise that those who seek
and find the Father he came to Jn-
fold to human understanding. shall do
the works which he did, and even
greater works.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 1o.-Negotia-
tions between the indianapolis trac-

crates the city street cars, and mem-
bers Of the local street car mems
union, were considered to be APP
preaching critical stage today. A
three-year agreement the men had
with the company expired Nosem-
ber 8.
The company has notified the men
they have until o'clock Saturday
night to sign a contract Of employ
ment. A special meeting Of the Gen.
tral labor union of Indianapolis has
been called for tonight, it is said, to
consider the situation.
The organized street car men in
new demands on the company ask an
increase in wages, changes in working
conditions, recognition of the union,
and a "ciosed shop" The company
recently announced an increase in
wages, but not as much as the union
men are demanding.
