MOUNTAIN FEUD IS
THEME Of DRAMA At
COLUMBIA TODAY
BY Ripley

A real holiday program headed by
Elaine Hammerstein In "Remorseless
Love" will be the Decoration day
morsel at Mauk's Columbia theater
today. The same bill holds over for
Wednesday also.
A good comedy. one of the SPAR
king Movie Chats reels, Pathe

orchestra, Fred Barlow. director, are
other numbers that go to make the
offering today one of timelincss and
interest
"Remorseless Love" is a powerful
feud drama. story of the picturesque
mountain country of Kentucky and
the strong men and women who
helped make history in that section
of the country. If the picture had no
other entertainment value the sce-
mic effects alone would make gen.
uine hit, but the story has every
element that goes to make fas-
cinating film play; it is splendidly
enacted by Miss Hammerstein and
her co-players and the suspense Is
so well sustained that one is kept on
the anxious seat to the very end.
Many critics believe this to be Miss

Peyote

A correspondent writes that he has just heard
of the Hayden Peyote bill which he has also learned
has been lying dormant in the house committee
Indian affairs since ast March He wants to know
what in the dickens peyote is. He says that he
cannot find 1t in the dictionary; he has talked to
his neighbors about it and he has found nobody who
ever heard of peyote. The thing is troubling him
and interfering with his rest.
There is such thing peyote. 1t is In the
dictionary. will be in the latest edition of
Webster "below the line." where briefly defined
"any cactus of the genus Laphophora; the mesca.
The bill introduced by Representative Hayden pro-
hbits the transportation of it In interstate commerce

its name which the Spaniards took from peyotl the
Aztec for Caterpillar so-caled the fibrous
downy growth the roots of the plant. From the
earliest times the plant used by Indians along
the east coast of Mexico to point of what is now
the United States far north Southern Colorado
and in places along the Pacific.
Use principally made of the root of the
plant, though the dried top button is gathered
by the Indians who employ it in a sort of religious
ceremony. Its effect is exhlarating; it spurs the
imaginative facilities and produces kind of dream
mess without, however temporarily conquering
the win power and without being followed by that
reaction which is technically known the morning
after"
Some observers have gone far to say that
the of peyote places its on higher moral
level and that checks tendencies toward alcoholism
If there is such effect it may be that of the
influence of the attending religious ceremony. The
peyote religion is said to be extending northward
from the Rio Grande.
Mr. Hayden probably differs from the observers
to whom we have made reference to the elevating
character of peyote. From what we know of him
and we have known him long and intimately-he is
not the kind of who would withhold the means
or instrument by which higher moral level might
be attained He is doubtless much more familiar
with effects Indian religious ceremonials than
those casual Observers and he almost surely knows
that mesca in the form with which we are familiar,
is not recognized as an antidote for alcoholism.

Solving Problems

ing the lnreality OF the assumption
that man is separated from God. The
life of Christ Jesus should, therefore,
interest every mortal, because II
shows how t.. master all so-called
human prob. ems. Mrs. Eddy says in
Unity of Good" (p. %: "The talent
and genus of the centuries have
wrongly reckoned:" and she further
states: "They have not accepted the
simple teaching and life Of Jesus as
the only true solution of the perplex-
ing problem of human existence"
The next important question to
consider is: How did Christ Jesus
solve this human problem which
confronted him. even as 1t seems to
confront every one OF us? He not
only perceived the coexistence OF
God and man he denied completely
the reality of matter. Here human
ity. unle. instructed by Christian
Science, differs from Christ Jesus,
and refuses to follow in his footsteps
But Jesus left no claim OF matter
unsolved; he denied by word and
demonstration all so-called material
laws. He healed the sick and
raised tie dead; he fed the five
thousand: re annulled time and
space; he walked on the waves; all
in complete denial of matter. thus
bringing about the demonstration OF
| Spirits allnes,, even the allness OF
our Father in heaven, whose law is
the only law that operates in the
| universe.
In all his work Christ Jesus never
spent much time in contemplating
or studying the so-called human
problem. but centered his attention
upon its divine solution. Mortal
mind not only presents its evil circle
of problems but insists that there is
nothing else to perceive except its
problems and the dire results that
will follow IL we do not solve them
in mortal minds own way. Mortal
mind contemp ates its own Deliel OF
separation from God, and thus hides
the true solution that would bring
the real man into view and dispel the
false beliefs. From this it follows
that one ignorant of God. with his
exaggerated belief in problems
many, will contemplate them in fear,
seeing only his own ignorance.
while one with spiritual understand
ing. sucr as we may all possess
through Christian Science. will con-
template only God and His perfec-
tion, expressed in man and the uni
verse, and will quickly deny all sep
aration from God. To solve any
o-called human problem, then, we
must contemplate divine Science,
and not allow ourselves to be mes
merized ly the problem. What we
all want is proof of our unity with
the divine Mind: for. as Mrs. Eddy
SAYS in The First Church CT Christ,
Scientist and Miscellany (p. 3O6):
"Divinity alone solves the problem
of humanity, and that in Gods own
time"
Arizona republican., 1922-05-30

Life is made up of unsolved prob
lems, the right solving of which
would make IT more worth living.
While convinced of this, very few OF
us are wise enough to ask ourselves
what 1t is that is making so many OF
these problems for US to solve; for,
are we not so busy solving them that
we feel we have little time to ask
questions? Mrs. Eddy, however. says
in Miscellaneous Writings (p. 52)
that mans existence is problem TO
be wrought in divine Science. 1t
cannot, therefore, be overlooked.
According to popular theology.
human problems are the gift of d.
vine Providence to test us and make
US fit Iof the kingdom of heaven. !.
Where this commonly accepted
theory crumbles is that. instead of
inducin, people to solve their prob
lens correctly this Is what
should be done with enthusiasm II
these problems are from God,-it
frequently causes them to TALL into
the trap wrongfully called patient
endurance; which simply means that
they stop trying to solve earth
problems at all. This theory, that
God sends us our problems, being
mixture of good and evil assumption,
is impossible of understanding and
it has caused more people to get
false concept of God--an unkind con-
cept of Him who is infinite Love
than almost any other with which
we are familiar.
Let US. then turn for a moment to
the life Christ Jesus and see how
he understood this subject. Jesus
life was full of problems which from
the superficial viewpoint, seemed to
be sent Il. Gcd. But this could not
have been So. God is infinitely just;
and, therefore He could not make
false mortal beliefs the basis OF
problems for His beloved Son. There
can be but one possible way out OF
this dilemma and it is that there
really was but one problem even
confronting Christ Jesus,-the false
belief that man is separated from
God. 1t made no difference what
the claim of evil or matter might
seem TO be; Christ Jesus annulled it
completely, because He knew so
clearly that mans absolute atone.
ment with Spirit, God, was estab-
lished forever. 1t was not some
thing to be accomplished, it was al
ready established; and Jesus demon
strated this fact for humanity. Thus,
Jesus fortified his Father and him
self continually, not by pointing out
problems, bus by showing the scien-
tific unity between God and man.
This. then, answers the question
at the beginning OF this article
What is IL that is making so many
problems fol- us to solve? 1t is just
the false claim that man Is sepa-
rated from God, that he has ma
terial life and mind entirely separate
from Spirit. This is the problem
that has ever confronted humanity;
this is the one, in all OF its ramifi-
cations. thst Christ Jesus met and
conquered; and he did this by show
