love DECLARED To Be
FOUNDATION OF GOOD
"Truest Synonym Of God" Says
Paul Stark Seeley, c. S., in
Lecture at Polls.

"The highest significance of in
telligence is love, the truest synonym
for God" said Paul Stark Seeley, C.
S., member of the board of lecture
ship of the mother church. Scientist,
Boston. in a lecture at Polls theater
yesterday afternoon. I'VE thus come
to see that this one intelligence, this
one altogether good mind, life, truth
and love is that primary cause to
which mortals have given the name
of God, and that the totality Of good
or the, sum total Of intelligence is
the person of Cod"
Mr.. Seeley was introduced to the
audience, which filed the theater, by
Hiram w. Hayes. former Christian
Science committee on publication OF
the District of Columbia
The lecturer said evil is not of
God. "Evi9 is not an adjunct of In
telligence nor is immortal mind
sponsor for sin, mortality. discord
and disease. To make God RESPONSE
Ible for evil gives it place as eternal
reality. Christian Science is a re-
ligion of joy and gladness, for 1t
propounds an intelligent optimism
based on a usable understanding of
the supremacy of good and the way
to Its present demOnStratlOn.
while recognizing the goodness of
God, it is important for us to recog-
nize the fact of Gods presence and
how we may find Him. God is spir-
itual good, and everywhere we find
spiritual good we find God. God is to
be found in thought, through spirit
ual thinking, and nowhere else I'm
derstanding good is knowing God. do
ing good is expressing God.
IF God be divine intelligence or
the altogether good mind. what is the
true status of man? We all know
that mind is manifest only through
it's ideas. Therefore. the true status
of man. the creature of intelligence,
is the idea of mind the individual ex-
preston of God. the offspring of in
telligence. or the son of God, as the
Bible puts it
Christian Science shows you and
me how not to be fooled by the cam
outage of evil. but through a knowl-
edge of spiritual reality to pierce the
mask of mortality and find our true
spiritual selfhood.
christianity rightly understood is
the touchstone of democracy. for
without Christianity-the science of
true law and true living-democracy
is but sounding brass and tinkling
cymbal."

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK. November 16.-In a
cable from Paris there is, a statement
that the French women are showing
their elation over the 'armistice by
wearing splendid hats.
One does feel joyful in a ripping,
crispy bit Of headgear; it is an old
old feeling, that of placing a shower
Of plumes on the warriors head. OF

Hat Like Chestnut Burr.

Hat Like Chestnut Burr.
There is another type of faring hat
that has none Of the ;coquetry Of this
Dropping affair Of lace, but is equally
big and smart. A sketch Of 1t Is given
today. The high crown is. like half
opened chestnut burr made OF brown
fur; and the swirling brfm is of black
lace resting on the crown at an angle
that suggests the tilt Of an airplane.
1t is not everybody's hat. Only the
specialist in posing millinery can
carry 1t of. but It is significant Of the
trend Of fashion and it shows what
/, other women will want to wear even
if you can't stand it.
Does it signify q return to the merry
widow shape? That is what miIlinerl
and. the curious part Of the public
ask. As far as the season goes, the
incoming of this hat has not affected
the wearing Of the turban, for this
shape is 80 popular that mi11iners
have reverted to the Russian form OF
which most Of US wearied after two
years.

Do you wonder that Peter Rabbit
suspected that his eyes might be
playing him tricks? It was hard
enough to believe that there could be
such a flying giant as Peter and all
his friends had seen, a giant so big
that King Eagle seemed small. Yes.
indeed. that was hard enough to be-
lieve, but to see man jump out OF
the back of that giant was enough to
make any one doubt his own eyes.
Peter was stiIl wondering II his

and turned It around. Then Peter
noticed for the nrst time that what
he had taken for feet were wheels.
Peter knew what wheels were be-
cause he had seen them many times
on Farmer Browns wagon. That was
funny. a bird with wheels.
While he was till wondering about
this Peter saw Farmer Brown, him
self, coming. When he had joined the
others they once more walked all

it with the greatest interest Then
the man who haA climbed out of the

Boy climbed into the. back Of the giant
and the other man followed him.
Farmer Brown went behind the giant
and twisted it's tail. At least that is
the way>tt looked to Peter. The giant
began to run and at the same time to
make a terrible noise. A minute later
the giant was in the air going UP, up,

The Blaze Of New Hats.

Yet SO far the best American de-
signers do not offer nor approve
brilliant hats. but they are keeping
in line with the French by putting
out large and, sometimes capricious
things that draw attention at once to
the head. Brims are increasing in
size at the same time that turbans
of significance are considered the best
choice for the street.
Cart-wheel brims have been returned
to fashion by certain smart women
who realize how inadequate turhaE
is as an evening hat. and who do not
feel that proper distinction is given a
costume uniess it includes headgear
that takes on size.
One of the best hats launched here
in that type is of chantilly lace with
a stable crown and q wide, wide brim
