Now we simply put the toe of our shoe in the handle and drag the box all over without bending our backs. F. M.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
I BELIEF EXPLAINED
All Right Thinking Comes
From God, British Lecturer
|. Declares.

"It is always the purpose of Chris
tian Science to show that every ac-
tiyity that is for the good Of man
love; that such activities forever
abide in God and that they are al
ways for the Father; also that they
express the power and the presence
of God" said John w. Doorly OF Lon
don, England, member of the board
of lectureship, First Church of Christ,
Scientist, Boston, in lecture on
Christian Science: The Science OF
the Revelation of Gods Nature to
Man." yesterday afternoon at the
Arcade auditorium,
1.-THE Christian Scientist knows that
all good, however expressed or by
whomsoever expressed, is but mani
festation OF expression of Gods ma
ture; he consequently understands
that it Is the Father that doeth the
works." he said.
"The purpose of this lecture is to
show that all right activity, every
good thought and deed. originates III
God, forever abideS in Him, anu
wherever or by whomsoever mani
tested Is always to some extent Iou
expressing His nature. through some
one of His ideas. Every right mental
activity, therefore, expresses the ma
ture of God; It consequently eN-
presses infinite power and ability 10

liefs This is the science of Chris
tianity, revealing one infinite cause
or creator, God. divine love. spirit,
mind, and His creation. spiritual re-
ality, which is forever manifestfnS
the divine nature. This science of
Christianity has nothing in common
with blind human belief, but Is based
on spiritual understanding or on eX-
act scientific knowledge. Is not this
science of the Christ divine loves
infinite provision and plan of saliva
ton? Christian Science teaches that
no good can ever be separated from
the one infinite good. God, and If men
would only recognize this they would
not only grasp the fact that all good
has forever proceeded from God alone,
but they would grasp the even more
important fact of the availability
and power of any and of all good as
forever inseparable from God and
always proceeding from Him."
The lecturer was introduced by Her
bert W. Archer. first reader OF Fourth
Church, under whose auspices the
lecture was given.

called upon Vice President Mr.. F. T. p,
who responded in spirit analogous to
that of the foregoing address, adding only

tain meekness and lowliness in

This is especially the case when
man has little or no knowledge

he imagines that he can dispose

Costa Rican delegation to the Pan.
American conference today created a
sensation in the political committee
of the conference by proposing a plan
for the reorganization of the Pan.
American Union which would abolish
as a condition to membership on the
governing board virtual requirement
that a government must be recognized
by the United States.
In place Of the present rule, under
which membership on the governing
board is limited to diplomatic repre-
sentatives accredited to Washington,
Costa RIGA proposes that the board
be composed of representatives direct.
ly accredited to the Pan-American
Union.
According TO Alvarsdo Quiroz, of
the Costa Rican delegation, who read
the plan to the committee, it is de-
clared TO obviate embarrassment such
as that felt by Mexico. with regard
to participation in the Psn-American
conferences or being representing on
the governing board of the Pan-Amer-
lean Union by a diplomat of some
other nation, as is provided in the
present rule for those nations not
