blocks in town have received new
coats of paint this year than per-
haps ever in the history of the town
This is due partly because during
the war period the material and
labor were both SO high that the US
ual repairing was not done and pert

and Keep 1t Up" campaign which
was conducted by some Of the citi-
zens early last summer.

that her father on dying had left a
will which required that the man who
won her must choose one Of three cas-
Ilets in which We're concealed Caesars
Commentaries, Cicero's OrationS and
Virgins Acncid. The sutton must trans
late this volume before he could marry
Portia. Now unfortunately, Bassanio
was n very poor man, and therefore 4
very poor student. He asked his COM
panions if they could loan him ponies
of these great works. Unfortunately
they could not, but the kind Antonio
remembered that Shyloc<, a gambler
and rather poor sport had a Caesar
pony. Antonio borrows the pony of
Shylock, agreeing to forfeit n pound
of his fair hair next to his brain if
, the pony is not returned within a
month.
Act shows a scene in Portals home.
where Bassanio has come to choose the
casllct. He brings his friend, Gera-
tiano, who being in love with Ncrissa,
a friend of Portals, agrees to let Bas-
SANTOS choice govern his fate. AS he
approaches the baskets to make his
choice he reads the following inscrip-
tons On the golden casket is writ
ten. "Who chooscth me must know a
lot to win" Rassanio knowing this is
not for him passes on to the silver
casket, which says. "Nho chooscth me
will win Miss Elliot's favor" Now
Bassanio knowing Miss Elliot realizes
that he must know a lot to win" even

reads the lead casket which says, who
chooseth me viii get it in the neck"
In spite of the rather sinister threat
the optimistic Bassanio thinks that
this may mean that lie will get po--
tia'S arms around his neck SO he
chooses the lead caskct. Upon upcn-
ing this it is discovered that it for
tunately contains the copy of Caesars
Commentaries. When we last sec Bas-
sanio he is, with the aid of Shylocks
pony, laboriously translating the book
while Miss Thccdice, a school teach
or, keeps a watchful eye over him.
A very dramatic beginning is given
to Act in the conversation between
Shy!ocIl and his ward Jcssica. Shy
lock is in love with Jessica and wishes
her to marry him, but as she loves
Antonio She refuses. Shylocll locks
her in the house and goes away. An
extremely humorous turn is given 10
the plot when Laucelot Gobbo enters.
He wishes to leave the services of Shy
lock and after a lively conversation
with his blind mother, who is taking
the washing to Antonio, asks his moth
er to secure a position for him in the
services of Antonio. Jessica again APP
pears, this time in the window of her
home, and asks Gobbo to take q note

Antonio return shortly and are forced
to break down the door TO rescue Jcs-

Christian Science-God's Law"
500 word report of lecture by
William D. Fitzpatrick

Christian Science has come to
humanity to restore to it the lost art
Of healing which the great Master
Christian, Jesus the Christ, declared
OF those truths Of existence which
he gave to the world some twenty
centuries ago. One can hardly read
the New Testament without a firm
conviction that. much Of the vitality
given it by the life and works of
Jesus. has been lost or eliminated
throughout the intervening centuries.
Jesus taught that it was his under
standing of God and Gods govern
ment of His universe which enabled
him to do the works of healing and re-
generation he so freely accomplished
Throughout His brief ministry and of
| which he said in no unmistakable
terms "He that believeth on me, the
works that do shall he do ALSO"
/! If you will carefully follow the life
of Jesus as given in the New Tesla
ment and consider his works in con-
nection with what he taught you will
discover that what he did was merely
to establish as demonstrable fact
what he taught, and that what he
taught and did were said and done in
accord with and in explanation of,
some immutable ever present, univer-
sal law. You will see, in other words,
that his words and works were look
ing to the establishment with men
| of a divine, omnipotent, spiritual
law which will eventually rule all
mankind to the complete extinction
of any so-called opposed law and its
effects.
And this Law Of God-this Law,
the knowledge and application Of
which Jesus said should make us free
is what Christian Science has come
to re-establish with men. Those
wonderful works Of Jesus prove
conclusively that the laws Of matter
are not Gods Laws and that Gods
, Laws are not only superior but are
4 actually laws of humiliation to so
called material laws and thereby
prove that material laws are the pro-
duct of mortal misconception of
what constitutes true law.
We find, with reinsurance, that
/ this Law Of God is Law of Life
not of death; law Of health-not of
sickness; law of abundance Of
lack and limitation; law Of harmony
mot Of discord; law of peace-not
of strife; law Of love-not of hate.
And now the question of how to
bring into action this ever present law
of God, how to apply it to our present
needs, how to heal the sick, comfort
the sorrowing and save the sinner, as
Jesus did, naturally presents itself.
This, my friends, is accomplished in
1 Christian Science solely through the
prayer of understanding. Christian
4 Scientists have learned that whatever
is to be achieved in the way of heal
ling and saving must be done through
such prayer, and that this prayer must
be without ceasing. Our every
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1922-03-23

thought, inclination and deed must be
the outcome of constant mental atti-
tude Of prayer if we would follow the
Master in the way of his appointing.
Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer
and founder Of Christian Science, has
incorporated the fundamental teach
ings of Christian Science in her book,
Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" This is the textbook Of
the Christian Science denomination.
Through its study the secrets and OBJ
securities of Holy Writ have been made
plain and instead of book Of mystery
the Bible has come to be the chart of
life to thousands upon thousands to
whom it has heretofore been closed.
