There have been remarkable opera

the heavy glass to splinters and sent
some OF them into the brain OF Charon,
destroying his left eye.
1t was hardly a minute later Charon
was on an operating table and all the
ships surgical talent was making an ef-

NEARING ENDS HIS
ANTI-WAR DEFENCE
Denies Attacks on US. Partici-

Draft.

The defence Of Scott Nearing to the
law through a pamphlet called The
Great Madness" which attacked the
draft, was finished yesterday. 1t ended
as II began. with the defendant on the
stand explaining his attacks on the
course Of the United States in entering
the war as expressions of opinion that
we're not written with the idea OF caus-
ing recruits to refuse to do their duty.
Nearing passed two days and part OF
third on the stand. Other witnesses

Both sides will sum up when the trial
Is resumed Monday. Nearing will make
his own plea to the jury. Counsel for
both sides agreed yesterday to split the

Nearing testified that before the United

speeches in a pacifist campaign that COW

Through Christian Science is aWak;
ened the great yearning and long;
ing of the human heart to know the
Truth: to find God as a fact, rather
than a mere belief or profession.
Theoretically, perhaps, all these
things could be attained through
Judaism and other religions. Prac-
tically, particularly in modern times,
this has not been true. Christian
Science furnishes not only the the
DRY and Principle, but supplies the
rule and method for practical ap-
plication In this it is distinctive,
not only in the fact itself, but in the
results proving the fact. 1t makes
it's appeal and obtains its adherents
because it exemplihes religion as
practical feature in the constant ex-
perience of living. Christian Sci
ence demonstrates that religion IS
not merely matter OF profession
or theory, but matter Of living.
1t transmutes belief into faith, faith
into understanding, understanding
into practical exemplifcation. 1t OBJ
tains it's adherents not by coercion
nor even persuasion; not by the
usual sectarian methods of vi1ifca-
ton, condemnation, and abuse OF
other religions or sects; not because
it merely promises or processes; but
because it measures up to the stand
ard, "By their fruits we shall know
them" Its results do not have to
be taken on faith, they are actually
and visibly demonstrated.
A Jew becomes a Christian Sci
enlist only through much travail.
Usually he turns to it exclusively for
relief from physical suffering. He
obtains results which he cannot de-
ny. With the desire that they shall
be permanent, and that he may
know the reasons for them, he
studies the Christian Science text
book, "Science and Health With
Key to the Scriptures" by Mary
Baker Eddy. He Immediately meets
the forces of the education of CEN
turtles opposed to everything con-
nected with the word "Christian,"
or "Jesus." All the traditions, the
teachings of his Sunday School and
synagog, all the ties Of relatives and
friends, marshall the forces to bar
his progress. Ingrained in his con-
seriousness is the inherent sense Of
sacrilege in the very name Of Jesus.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

striving to retain the name of both
Jew and Christian Scientist Such
a position is anomalous and wholly
inconsistent with the attitude of
sincere Christian Scientist. Those
who indulge in such "parrot-like"
talk simply evidence the fact that
they have not yet grasped the
simplest elementals of Christian Sci
ence, speak wholly without author
ity and do not represent in any way
Christian Science or what it teaches.
Furthermore, Jew when he be-
comes Christian Scientist, the
same as any other person, ceases to
rely upon doctors, drugs, or any 9TH
er material form of treatment He
obeys the health laws, as prescribed
by proper authorities, but he trusts
to God for the healing of his sick
ness, in accordance with the pattern
showed him by the Bible: that is,
with an absolute reliance on God,
faith in His promises and their full
fillment.
In all trouble, physical and men
tai, in sickness and in sin, the Chris
tan Scientist turns to God and to
Him solely and only for his help,
and results prove that in doing so he
takes no chances. Unlike drugs, or
the surgeons knife, the power of
God is not experimental, but posi-
tive, exact, and fruitful in results.
Christian Science teaches man
how to seek and find God, and OBJ
tain His help. He has, therefore,
no occasion to turn to so-called
lesser powers. For fifty years Chris
tan Scientists have been and today
are standing as living examples of
the result of that steadfast faith in
and reliance on God which was
characteristic of the old Jewish
worthless. and to whom God mani
tested His power, even as He is re-
peating the same in the experience
of Christian Scientists today. (How
are Christian Scientists living exam
pies more than other human beings?
Don't they die when their disease IS
fatal?- Editor.)
A Jew does not become a Chris
tan Scientist to escape from Juda-
ISM" but rather to find it in it's
original conception of God and His
worship. He turns for the same
reason that hundreds of thousands

ers work for the Christian Science
church, we should need twenty more
synagogs in Minneapolis Editor.)
Membership in it is attained through
voluntary action on the part of the
person desiring it, and only upon
such satisfactory proof Of quali6ca-
ton as indicates not only belief
in the teachings of Christian Sci
ence, but proof of their manifesto
ton in life and conduct. 1t likewise
requires that experience shall have
brought to. the applicant the conv1c-
ton that Christian Science offers
him something better and more
satisfying than that which he was
able to secure in his former church.
This is not intended as a disparage-
ment of Judaism or any other re-
ligion. 1t simply indicates that the
Christian Science church neither
needs, seeks nor accepts members
who are not only convinced of the
value and efficiency of it's teachings,
but willing to exemplify them in
daily life and conduct.
There can be no hyphenated
Christian Scientist There is no
such thing as a Jewish Christian
Scientist, any more than there is
Baptist, Methodist, or any other by
phenated form. Christian Science is
a, distinct religious system, entirely
separate and apart from any other
religious sect or creed. 1t stands
on we'll defined religious principles
and neither makes nor is required to
make any apologies for itself or it's
teachings. A person is either
Christian Scientist or he is not He
can hold no halfway position.
In it's basic fundamentals the
teachings of Christian Science are
the same as those of Judaism and
primitive Christianity. (The writer
undoubtedly knows Christian Sci
ence, for he is leader in the church,
but osser if he knows anything
about Judaism If he did he would
not make such statement. In their
fundamentals Christian Science and
Judaism are as far apart as the poles.
--Editor.) Speaking, therefore, in
a broad sense and obliterating the
distinctions of creeds and sects, it
might truly be said that Jew who
becomes a Christian Scientist does
