THOUGHT is POWER, SAYS
SCIENTIST IN LECTURE
Ohrenstein Says People Come to
Christian Science Because They
Want Relief.

IF God is the all-enabling power anc
God is Mind, the operation Of this pow
er must primarily be by way of ideas
thought" said Charles L. Ohrenstein, c
5. b., member of tbe Board of Lecture
ship of the Mother Church, the Firsl
Church Of Christ, Scientist. in Boston
Mass, in a lecture Thursday night al
the Y. NJ. c. A. Auditorium.
The speaker was introduced to the au
dience by Prof. II. W. Smith. Professor
Smith said, in part:
'lnasmuch as preparation is a mental
process, the world does not readily rec.
ognize its stages; but, noting the result,
proclaims a miracle The world took
little notice of Moses in exile tending
the focks of Jethro. his father-in-law,
and preparing thought for service 10 his
people. Similarly the longest span Of
the career of Jesus is the part of which
the world has not record"
Mr.. Ohrenstein's lecture. in part fol-
lows: 1T is no. because people seek
Christian Science that they come to in
quire, but because they want relief. So
it is with an audience, those who are not
Scientists come because they feel an as
surance.
"The natural question is, What is
COd?' The popular idea is that heaven
/ is above the clouds, and God an old man.
There is no such God. God is power,
all constructive power, strength and the
spirit Of the mind, God, the father Of all,
made man in his own image. The man
that Jesus represented was the real man,
the spiritual man; the man that human
ity insists upon is the man of flesh.
IF God is the all-enabling power, and
God is Mind, the operation of this power
must primarily be by the way of thought.
Who can straighten out che finger or
bend it without thought debating the
action? Will not the hand do kind
things under the impulse Of loving
thoughts?
THE schools are beginning TO recog-
nize that in Christian Science light
has come into the world, bur they are not
! able to see that it is all light and that
there is no darkness at all. Theology
is beginning to teach an incorporeal God,
but not~one who is the Spirit that is all
Love, too pure to behold evil Of any
kind. to cause it, or to permit IT,. The
healing arts are beginning to teach that
mind is at least in part cause, but with,
out recognizing that mind is God, SO
never the cause Of disease. but always the
cause of restoration of health and life. !"

new LEAGUE IS
HARRICAN PLAN
With CITY nine
Manager of Team Wants
in League With
Six Clubs

Possibility of {, new lndepen-
dent" baseball league in Imperial
Valley was revealed yesterday by
B. A. Harrigan, who was interested
in the formation of the Ell Centre
independents, when Mr.. Harri-
gan declared that they have not
disbanded, but changed managers,
and are now stronger than ever.
According to Mr.. Harrigan, over
lures have been made to the Imper-
ial Valley Winter League to admit
the FL Centre Independents and
a Mexicali team to the league, thus
making it six club affair. In the
event the league does not see fit to
do this, he says, a new league, con-
sisting of Holtville, FL Centre "In-
dependents, Mexicali and Cantu
or Coachella will be formed. While
such league would not be evenly
balanced, owing to the distance from
the center of the valley to Cantu or
Coachella, it is probable that way
could be found to overcome this and
make a compact circuit that would
produce fast ball.
''Practically all the dead wood
carried by the Independents in the
early part of the season has been
discarded says Harrigan, land
right now we are as strong as any
team in the valley.
Claim Better Team
"'We had a game scheduled with
the FL Centre league team last Sun
day after their regular game with
Brawley was called off owing to
Howard Gipe's death, and though
we took the field, the leaguers failed
to show up. This certainly looks as
though they were afraid of us and
realize we are a much stronger team
than the one they faced here several
weeks ago. With Joe Steel and
Brewer we have one of the ablest
batteries in the valley, and we have
succeeded in getting good men for
every other position to back them
up.
'.While l would like to see the
league open up and admit us, togeth-
er with Mexicali, if they don t we
will put through a league of our
own and guarantee the fans good
ball. There is more interest in a
six club league than one of only
four clubs, and l believe baseball
followers would like to see Mexi-
cali in the league again. They al
