science and who were seeking inform
alton. The suggestion was unusual
and interesting,
''If you are thinking of taking up
Christian Science, do not stay out
till you become good enough If you
reached that point and then sought
to join, the chances are, you would
be advised to wait awhile"
do not think it is something ditfi-
cult TO understand. 1t is the simplest
thing in the world"
"When you seek help be careful
from whom you seek it Not all
those calling themselves Scientists are
prepared toinstruct Others " There
is mistaken idea abroad" he said,
that Scientists are at enmity with
doctors. This is not true. Physicians
do great good in alternating suffering
and carrying comfort to stricken ones.
They are needed and reach hundreds
of people who could be reached in no
other way. Our paths lie in opposite
directions, how then can we clash %
INCIDENTS OF THE STREET
The next day as we came out of
church just before services closed we
overlook lady leading diminutive
valuable dog, which had evidently
been injured. The writer never hest
tates to address children or dogs
knowing love is surely reflected by
love. A passing remark to the dog
received a cordial answer from its
owner. To our surprise she added,
"We've been to church OF course,
Fido and | sat in the lobby but we
could hear"
Shocking? Not at all. She under
stands that all created things came
from source and that Not a Sparrow
Falleth.'"
In contrast as to the line of thought
the Sunday before we overlook a
stranger leading child. 4 don't see
why | couldn't stay complained the
child. well, if your mother cannot
be admitted to Sunday School with
you, it's no place for you. I've my
opinion of that kind of religion"
The writer patted the baby head
as she sighed: 1--WE would all like to
be under twenty and be taught as
little children, but we must do our
own work, and strive as we'll as de-
SIRE"
She was still giving vent to her in
jured feelings, and super-sensitiveness,
as we boarded the car with a silent
consciousness that error soon destroys
itself and gives place to Truth.
A READING.
Such treat was enjoyed by select
audience, teachers and students three
weeks ago when Mrs. A. d. Baker
of New York gave series Of readings
from Maeterlink and ended with THE
Unseen Empire" by Fuller, an Amer
lean poet. which seemed marvellously
prophetic in the pace Of the tragedies
being enacted upon the very spot
chosen by the author as his theatre
of action, although the play was pub
lished year before the war broke
out.
Mrs. Baker is considered one of the
foremost readers in the .. S. and is
a German by parentage if not by
birth but most loyal American.
1t needed just such person TO pre-
sent the work, and clearly define the
authors position as regards his princi-
pal characters, which now seem TO
point to personalities and to bring
out the psychological truth underly-
ing the play. 1t seemed to us that
no better peace lecture could have
been given and the audience listened
breathlessly to the entire play.
New Year resolutions have
framed those sent by the PILOT.
Have you resolved to keep the COM
mandments ? Begin with the first
and realize that in obeying it none of
the other nine can be broken. l
never could remember them in their
order. RAMBLER.
