CHRISTIAN
 SCIENCE IS
 HIS THEME
Member of Board of Lectureship Speaks at Arctic Brotherhood
 Hall To Large Crowd

Before an interested audience at Arctic Brotherhood Hall, Saturday evening, Virgil O. Strcikler, C. s. B., of the Christian Science Lectureship Board, gave an interesting lecture on Christian Science.
 Mir. Strickler in heiS lecture, said in part:
 "As it becomes more generally un- derStood that through the ministry of Christian Science people are being healed of sickness, in, unhappineSS, worry, fear, and other diScordant con ditionS. there is an ever-increaSing de- sire upon the part of the general public to learn how these results are accomplished. It is the purpose of this lecture to explain how Christian Science does these things. There is no mystery about Christian Science healing, nor is it difficult to under stand. It can be stated without any reservation whatever that every per son who is willing to do so may learn how to heal sickness and to destroy the desire to sin for himself and oth- CTS through Christian Science.
 It is said that there are more than two hundred different kinds of the Christian religion alone, not to men ton the hundreds of other forms of religions that are not Christian. It is fact that people do entertain wide ly differing religious beliefs. In many instances the differences are irrecon-

Jesus, when understood and applied, is sufficient without drugs or any mate ral means to heal the sick and regen- crate the sinner, and Christian Scien- tiSts everywhere are engaged daily in demonstrating and proving this to be true.
 "Mrs. Eddy is acknowledged to be the DiScoverer and Founder of Chris tian Science, and many people ask what it is that she has discovered. In reply it can be said that she has dis covered the law of Spirit which is spir- itual truth.
 "Mrs. Eddy discovered the law of Spirit as truly as Sir Isaac Newton discovered the law of gravitation, and this fact should be thoroughly under stood. Just as Newton discovered that the movements of material bodies are regulated and governed by this mate rial law, so Mrs. Eddy discovered the Principle that governs the entire uni verse, including every detail in the lives of men. That supreme, creative, governing, omnipresent Mind or Prin- ciple is God, the only cause, the only creator, the only Ruler of man and the universe"

SUNDAYS
 SERMONS
"NO SUBSTITUTE FOR CHRIST"
 SUBJECT AT METHODIST
 CHURCH, SUNDAY MORNING

During the course of his remarks Sunday morning at the Methodist church, Rev. Patton said in part:
 "These are the days for substitutes. Health boards are everywhere neces- sary in order to prevent men from sub stituting imitation foods for the gen uine. Cunningly devised means are continually used in order that mems coffers may be filled. Scorched dough for coffee grains, soapstone pebbles to increase the weight of beans. Neces- sity frequently compels us to substi- ute in many ways Tin is scarce in comparison with the demand, hence wooden receptacles are much used. As the result of EdiSon's and others in- genuity and scientific investigation, we have canned" music at little expense. Our housewives being over-burdened with the modern routine of cares and social functions, children are not in- frequently given into the hands of substitute mothers. However, our text, John 6:6S-69, plainly illustrates that there can be no substitute for Christ without an irreparable disaster. Hear Peter as he says, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eter- nal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.'"

WHERE WILL HE GET A
WIFE?

While the war is going on and
the young man is supposed to be
On the firing line on the continent,
shedding sweat and blood, land the
time approaching for the Prince
of Wales to be formally tied to
a queen consort, those whose duty
it is to find the said consort are
sorely puzzled over the problem.
They do not know where to 60 to
find her.
Heretofore when the time came
for them to select wife ;or their
heir apparent to the British
throne all they had to do was to
go and get one Of the kaiser s
manageable daughters, which he
seems to have always had in his
family; but that seems to be out
of the question now. A GOODNESS
exists between the families, SO
that they will not risk the loyalty
Of a queen selected in the usual
way, and the blood of any thinner
royalty than that of the house OF
Hapsburg is not considered blue
enough. To make a selection
from anything less than a royal
family is unthinkable; anything
less than that is coming too near
plebian blood. That is British
Democracy, of which we hear a
good deal these days.
The prince royal, if he is heir
APPARENT to the throne is not al
lowed to fall in love with and
marry the woman Of his choice.
He can have as many lady loves
as he pleases, so he does not 60
below the daughter Of an earl or
a lord, but to marry one Of them
is not permitted. He must marry
one that is chosen for him, but
he is not expected to love her,
as a common man loves his wife
that would be too much like
ordinary man.
Hence the perplexity Of the
cabinet and the house of lords.
The question is more important
to them than the result of the
great war now in progress. A
queen consort must be had to
perpetuate royalty but where to
find her is the perplexing ques-
ton. There is no longer a FRENCH
royal family.-Ruston Leader.

ton of State support for public
education.
(2) School Attendance. Fig
ures will be presented to Illus
trate some Of the loss sustained
on account of irregular attend
ance and an effort will be made
to discover the best way to reach

tendance law will be gone into
thoroughly with the view of de-
termining whether or not this
law should be strengthened in or
der to make it more effective.

will be discussed as, the necessity
for increased food production, d.
versifcation, consolidation of
schools, good roads, industrial ed

SALT WATER A MENACE.

The salt water menace is one
Of deep interest in this section.
While many planters have deep
wells from which they can get
their own irrigation, yet the
great mass Of the rice crop de-
ponds on the irrigation canal that
takes the water from the Verf
million bayou, now strongly ind
pregnated with salt water.
Should there be no rain in the
very near future the situation will
be very serious. Many of the
farmers are now having deep
wells placed on their field and it
seems impossible for all Of them
to get wells. Consequently, there
is no means by which the present
outlooks can be judged.-Abbe-

WORK WILL NOT HURT.

It was Robert J. Burdette
who said: My son, you have to
work. whether you handle pick
or pen, a vince barrow or set of
books. ringing an auction bell or
writing funny things, you must
work. If you look around. you
will see the men who are the
most able to live the rest of their
days without work are the men
who work the hardest.
Don't be afraid of killing your
self with overwork. They die
sometimes, but it's because they
quit work at 6 p. m. and don't go
home until 2 a. m. It is the in
terval that kills, my son. The
work gives you an appetite for
your meals, it lends solidity to
your slumbers and gives you q
perfect aud graceful appreciation
of a holiday. :
There are young men who do
not work, but the world is not
proud of them. It does not
know their names even; 1t SIM
ply speaks of them as odd so
and SOS boys" The great,
busy world dosen't know that
they are there.
So find out what you want to
be and do, take off your coat and
make a dust in the world. The
buster you are the less harm you
are apt to get into, the sweeter
and happier your holidays, and
the better satisfied will the
world be with you.

THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.

Amerchant in q western town
showed a farmer a buggy, priced
at 500. 90, and the farmer kicked
because twenty years ago his
father bought one just like it for
$50 90.
Then the merchant looked up
the sale and found that the father
had turned in 800 bushels of corn
Tor that buggy aud he told the
farmers son to bring him 800
bushels of corn and he would
give him:
$4,000 buggy.
1-"75.OO wagon
1-''2O. 90 suit Of clothes.
10000 dress.
800 baby dress.
n 1-''6. 90 scrib.
300 box of cigars.
/ 1000 worth Of sugar.
1000 worth Of tea.
100 90 worth of gasoline.
1890 worth of lubricating
oil.
The total figure $685.. 90 az the
value of 800 bushels Of corn, and
it 10 needless to say that the
high cost Of living disappeared
from the farmers mind and he
bought the buggy.
Some such reckoning a. this
might be q good thing for those
people who are throwing fits"
over the proposition to tax excess
profits, with inevitable result Of
speedy cure.-Ex.
