versity, delivered a mastery address,
using as his subject New Thera-

The greatest thing about the
body" said DR.. BOYD, "is the blood
current and to keep the body healthy
the blood must lbe pure. There IS a
current of thought passing through
the veins Therefore it is just as es-
.sential that we keep this stream Of
Thought pure, SO as to have pure
minds, as it is to keep the blood in
good condition to guard our bodies
from becoming diseased. DO not al
low the mind to become flabby. or
impure thoughts creep in"
c. NJ. Bolts will deliver the address
at the luncheon next Sunday evening.
