Last Sunday evening at the Liber-
ty Theater, Mr.. Cook spoke to an at
tentive and interested audience as fol
lows:
In this audience there are, without
doubt, those who hold many and di-
verse views about theology, philoso-
ply, economics. medicine. Some OF
these beliefs are, doubtless, opposed
to the teachings of Christian Science
Yet l trust that as we proceed we
shall find many points on which we
can agree, and some points, at least,
on which we are already in agreement.
For example, we are all agreed at the
outset that we exist. About this fact
there can be no difference of opinion.
Everyone in this room admits his
conscious existence. There is no one
present who is not conscious Of some
kind of existence, whether it be good
or bad, happy or unhappy, satisfying
or unsatisfying. Another point about
which there can be no dispute is that
there must be cause for our exist
ence. If we accept the premise that
we exist, we are led to the unavoid-
able conclusion that there is cause
for our existence. We may, however,
differ as to the nature Of that cause.
Mrs. Eddy with admirable direct
ness, on page 544 of the Christian
Science textbook, "Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures"
says, MAN exists because God exists"
and often, if not always, Jesus spoke
of God as the only Father. He said,
my Father and your Father" and,
Our Father which art in heaven"
Writing of the Master (Scienee and
Health, p. 3D. Mrs. Eddy says, "Jesus
of Nazareth was the most scientific
man that ever trod the globe He
plunged beneath the material surface
of things and found the spiritual
cause" This Spiritual cause" Christ
ian Science shows US to be the one
supreme intelligence, Min, Life,
Truth, Love, that we call God
SPIRITUAL CAUSATION
God is described in the Scriptures
as the Almighty, as l AM, as Spirit,
Life, Love. Christian Science agrees
with these Scriptural definitions of
Deity, and also teaches that God is
absolute good, the only real substance,
the infinite consciousness, divine Mind, |
or Principle. These synonymous
terms help us to understand God as
causation, as the only basis of real
existence. They also help US to APP
prehend the omnipotence, omnis-
cience, and omnipresence of the one
creative power.
Snce this causative Principle is in
The Emmett index. [volume] (Emmett, Idaho) 1893-1925, 1920-05-06

worry causes insomnia and indiges-
ton. Since we are convinced of the
mental causes of these physical eff
fects, does it rot seem entirely reason
able to agree with the statement of
Christian Science that, primarily, all
disease has a mental cause? But
Christian Scientists do not contend
that all sickness is the result of con-
sciouS fear or of willful wrongdolng
on the part of the victims of disease.
They merely claim that somewhere
back of all bodily diseases there are
erroneous conditions of thought which
must be discovered and corrected be-
fore there can be permanent cure.
May not this explain why Christian
! Science has healed many chronic case
that medicine had failed to cure? Is
it not plain that physicians in their
| treatment of these cases were not get
| ting at the root of the difficulty, be-
cause the drugs which they prescribed
could not reach, nor have any effect
upon, the mental cause of disease?
Can nonintelligent drugs reasonably
be expected 70 influence thought?
Could one well expect medicines to
have power over such emotions as
grief? And yet, even from the medi-
thoughts are seen to be frequent
causes of disease.
Perhaps the most prolific cause of
disease is fear. Fear is in fact the
greatest enemy of mankind. If one
doubts this somewhat radical state
ment, let him pause long enough to
consider some of the things of which
people are afraid They are afraid of
weather, food, germs, criticism, fail
ure and poverty. And the Bible tells
US of those who Through fear of
death" are "all their lifetime subject
to bondage" The complete removal
of fear from the consciousness of hu-
mainly would unquestionably be a
wonderful blessing. Christian Science
shows that fear is needless. 1t ex-
plains why it is needless. Thus it |
removes fear. Christian Science re-
moves fear by first removing the ig-
norance that causes fear. A truly in
telligent individual, one who expresses
real presence of Mind, or the presence
Of real Mind, could not possibly be
afraid.
Christian Scientists do not pretend
that they are never afraid, any more
than that they, as mortals, are never
sick. Man, the image of God, is never
sick; for if man, as Gods likeness.
could be sick, it would follow
that God must be sick, because
the likeness can express only
that that which is in the ORR
ginal Mortals, however, frequently
are sick, and Christian Scientists, as
are sometimes afraid. What
they claim, therefore, is that they are
much less fearful than they formerly
were and for that very reasan, much
less subject to disease and disaster. Fl
Christian Science not only helps one
to be free from fear of disease, but it
helps one to rise gradually above all
phases of fear. In like manner !
Christian Science enables one to over
come other kinds of wrong thinking,
sueh as envy, hatred, revenge, greed, I

and avarice, through understanding
that these evil thoughts do not eman-
ate from Truth, the infinite, divine
Mind; hence they are without real
cause or existence.
FALSE LAWS ANNULLED
As it has been previously indicated,
all sickness does not, even from the
Christian Science viewpoint, result
from willful sin or from conscious
fear. Disease is frequently the effect
of generally accepted beliefs OF the
human mind which have mistakenly
come to be regarded rs laws Among
these are found the so-called laws
which appear to control the effect of
food, climate, contagion, and heredity.
Christian Science shows that these as
serted laws which claim to hold nor
tails in bondage ard cause them to
sicken and die are not real laws. 1t
teaches that these mortal laws may
be rendered void and imperative,
through enforcement of the law of
divine Truth-which is the law of life
and health And it does not matter
how long one of these supposed laws
may have been believed in or submit
ted to, if it can be set aside IN its
operation in single instance it is
proved not to be law. 1t IS safe to
say that the practice Of Christian
Science has anDulled every so called
health law"-not in one instance
only, but in many instances. Jesus, it

PAINE To PILOT
CANTU'S PLANES

CALEXICO, May 28.-T. 0. Paine,
formerly lieutenant in the United
States air service. has delivered to
Governor Esteban Cantu of Lower Cal
ifornia, two Curtiss airplanes of mil
itary type, and will act as commodore
Of the Mexican fleet until some of
Cantu's junior officers can be trained.
The sale was made by Mr.. Paine, the
price being $4,000, and he is to re-
ceivc 5000 per month to act as instruc-
tor. He is one of the most capable
air men developed in the United States
army and has many startling exploits
to his credit.
Governor Cantu in purchasing the
planes, said he expected to use them
more for industrial purposes than in
military manoeuvers. Lower Califor-
MIA has many impossible districts,
from which reports are hardly ever
obtainable, and the Colorado river
delta is at times the source Of much
danger to irrigated lands. BY use Of
the planes the governor can keep the
ranchcrs and irrigation district Off
cials as to water conditions which
otherwise could not be taken.

says the Gazette. The demand for
laborers has fallen of very much In

There still is some railroad work to

LINE To
LAKE TAHOE

Young Bros. who own and operate a
summer resort at Bijou, completed ar
rangements this week with the United
Farmers Telephone and Telegraph
company, for the construction of tele-
phone line from the foot of Kings
bury grade to Bijou, distance of ten
miles. Work has already started on
the new line and with favorable
weather conditions, will be completed
within three weeks.
Inasmuch as Young Bros. transact
a great deal of business with the peo-
pie of this Valley. they have long con-
sidered the construction of a telephone
line to connect their resort with the
Farmers system In this county. A
week or so ago Anita Baldwin, who
has summer home at Fallen Leaf
Lake, opened negotiations with the
Farmers company for phone service,
but finally abandoned the plan. Learn
ing of the abandonment, Young Bros.
Immediately closed contract with
the Farmers company and the much
needed line is now being built.
