Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1917-01-26

Every recommendation for legisla-
ton made in the second inaugural
address of Governor Ernest Lister
has been carefully considered by the
house committee on rules and order
of business, with the result that
Speaker Guy e. Kelly has instructed
the chairmen Of the various house
committees to take those recommen-
dations which affect legislation each
committee is expected to consider
and prepare bills covering the same.
This move will result. it is expected,
in placing before the legislature prac-
tically all Of the recommendations Of
the governor. something which has
never before been done in the legis-
lative history Of the state, although
efforts have been made to bring
about similar action in the past.
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1917-01-26

There is apparently an earnest de-
sire on the part of the committees in
both the house and senate to sift
out thoroughly everything which
comes up for a hearing. More COM
mittee sessions are being held this
session, and these meetings continue
longer than those of previous ses-
sions SO early in the game. The re-
suit should be a class Of legislation
of which the members of the legis-
lature should be proud. The newer
members who came to Olympia with
an idea that it was going to be a
sixty days vacation at IS q day at
the expense Of the taxpayers have
had rather rude awakening. As a
matter of fact, this legislature IS set
Ting into harness, working longer
hours and with the exception of its
weekend adjournments, getting In
more hard work than any preceding
session for several years.

One fact is beginning to stand out,
and this is that the legislature may
find 1t is going to run short of funds,
before the session is over, II halt
is not called. The senate recently
was the scene of a rather amusing
incident along these lines. Someone
ordered handsome silver and glass
cigar and match holders for the men,
bers and the sergeant-at-arms was
busy distributing them to the men,
bers' desks when someone called at
tention to the fact that majority
of those present had at one time or
other during the last campaign criti-
cized the governor for his expendi-
ture of $25 for a humidor for the
mansion. When this fact soaked
home there was a scurrying of pages
around the senate chambers and the
cigar holders and ask trays disap-
peared as suddenly as they appeared.

TELLS OF
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Continued from Page One

continued from rage OHe
Christian Science. Mary Baker Eddy,
in her work entitled Miscellaneous
Writings says of this Science: Its
genius is right thinking and right
acting and in another Of her works
she says, The essence of this Science
is right thinking and right acting
Basis Of Right Thought.
"In seeking an answer to the ques-
ton how to think rightly. Christian
Science recognizes that there must
necessarily be basis or standard &C.
cording to which thought may be
measured as right or wrong, the same
as mathematical law measures with
exactness the correctness or incor-
rectness of mathematical thinking.
with a correct understanding of
divine Mind as the one intelligent
cause, and man as Minds eternal
idea, whose real selfhood is good
ness, as the basis for right thinking,
Christian Science shows man how to
make this truth practicable in his
daily problems. The method is the
|supplanting in consciousness of the
temporal and mortal sense of life
and selfhood with the true and eter-
nal facts of spiritual life and man
hood. 1t is a mental transforma-
ton which gradually exchanges a
material for the spiritual sense of
being.
Jesus said, Except We become
as little children, We shall not enter
the kingdom of heaven This
showed that the kingdom of heaven
was not place, but a state of con-
seriousness, to find which one must
acquire the childlike qualities Of
love. gentleness. humility. unselfish-
ness, purity and goodness. Thus we
see that heaven is not future state
Of regal refuge, but a present reward
for righteous thinking. Instead of
dying his way into heaven. man must
think his way in, and this is just as
true this day and hour as when Jesus
said 1t. 1t is these childlike quail
ties Of thought that one needs to gain
an understanding Of Christian Sci
ence, to gain the Mind Of Christ, the
consciousness Of Truth.
''Something Has Failed"
ION earth peace, good will to-
ward men, was the message that
heralded Jesus ministry. For nearly
two thousand years these words and
the prayer of the Master: Thy king
dom come. Thy will be done in earth.
as it is in heaven have been on the
lips of Christendom. But what is
the trouble? Something has failed.
Somewhere there has been a hitch.
Something has been out of gear.
This people draw near me with their
mouth wrote Isaiah, and with their
lips do honor me, but have removed
their heart far from me-
"The trouble has not been with
mems words, 1t has been with mems
thoughts. Rivers of words will not
bring Gods kingdom to earth in q
thousand centuries; universal right
thinking will establish 1t in q day.
And universal right thinking is no
more and no less than every fndi-
vidual thinking, that is, praying
rightly"

"In the first place, before 1 begin to
tell you of the work that 1 have done
as field agent" Miss Foster said, II
want to tell you of the qualification and
the inspiration it has been TO me on
