finite Mind, Spirit, Soul, Principle,
Lite, Truth. Love-
This definition is abundantly sus
tanned by Scriptural authority. Thus
Moses, encouraging his followers DUR
ing their struggles in the wilderness.
reminds them that God is Life. Paul
refers to God as Mind when. in writ
ing to the Philippians. he admonishes
them to have that Mind which was In
Christ Jesus. Jesus. finding the Sa-
maritan woman at the well in an in
quiring mood, says to her, God is a
Spirit: and they that worship Him
must worship Him in spirit and in
truth. While John, whose associ-
alton with the Nazarene has trans
formed him from the impetuous Son
of Thunder to the gentle Apostle OF
Peace. can say, God is Love: and
he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in
God, and God in him.
Definition of Deity.
Nor is there any escape from the
logic of MrsL Eddy's definition of
Deity. For when we concede, as
we do, that God is everywhere pres
ent and all-knowing, We are driven
to the conclusion that He must be
mind. Nothing other that mind can
be all-knowing and measure up to
omniscience. But mind, ever ami
mate and cea Ielessly active. cannot
be dissociated from life. Therefore,
we are led to see that God is life
as we'll mind.
Mind and life, however, in their
true sense, are inseparable from love,
which reminds US of the Apostle s
declaration that God is love. But
mind. life and love, as humanely mani
tested. are lamentably imperfect. Only
as love is unselfish, mind unerring,
life above disease. can they prop
erly be held to be Diety. In other
words, only as they are sustained.
vitalized, and impelled by principle
are they worthy names for God. And
on the other hand. only as principle
is not abstract and mindless but
imbued with life, mind and love. is it
entitled to be regarded as Deity.
Then are they all transferred from
the realm of the human to the
divine"

in part:
when we look out upon the world
at large and contemplate the beauty
and order manifested on all hands
and in every direction. and then con-
sidcr that what we sec through the re-
stricted avenue of the physical senses
Is not the fu1lneSs but at most only d
hint of the perfection and grandeur
OF the spiritually real phenomena
which fill all space, we are at once
led to inquire concerning the origin
"f things. We cannot conceive of
their being here by accident or
chance, nor by virtue of their own
power or yolition, but we are per-
suaded, If we think seriously upon
the subject that they are creations
Of law and intelligence. and that
underlying them is some grand.
beneficent purpose.
Views First Cause.
Naturally. different people at diff
ferent periods Of time have enter
tanned widely varying conceptions as
to the origin. cause or creation of
things. The ancient Hebrews, for
example, conceived of the creator as
an enlarged human being-Jehovah
ny name-a sort of king having the
uneven temperament and the local
jurisdiction Of a chieftain or monarch.
But in course of time, with the eX-
pansion of Jewish thought. Jehovah
gave place to Elohim, whose pres
ence bright all space doth occupy,

"One reason the Bible holds ab-
sorbing interest for thinking people
is, that it portrays this unfoldment
OF the Hebrew conception of Deity
from Il primitive sense of God as
corporcal, CircumSCribed and human,
toward an enlightened concept OF
God as being everywhere present as
having all intelligence, as possessing
ana exercising all power. unseen and
unSeeahle to the physical senses.
This enlarged conception OF Deity
was the priceless contribution from
the Jewish race to Western civiliza :
ton, made t A time when paganism
and mythology fourished even in
cultured Greece and Rome.
More Tangible Idea Sought.
But there still remained throug gh
all the centuries the necessity for a
more tangible concept, more definite
definition of Deity, to meet the prac-
teal needs of humanity: and this
came, only SO years or SO ago,
through the inspired thought of Mary
Baker Eddy. when she discerned, as
she writes on page 465 of her great
book Science and HEALTH that God

Joint Air Debate

Never before had the voters Wit

joint debate. A few hours before
the opening of the polls, between two
outstanding figures of campaign.
Never had so great multitudes been
able to hear. as from one platform.
the voices of two men who have been
lifted to the highest pinnacle of party
leadership.
Momentarily the spectacle iostled
out of public view the loud and per-
sistent claims of victory that eman-
ated in the final hours OF the cam
paign headquarters of all parties. It
overshadowed for tonight even to-
morrow's election ITSELF at which
the nation will choose between Cool
idge. Davis and Lat'ollette, will elect
new congress, and will fill gov
ernor's chair in each of "a states.
Both the president and his Den. -
ocratic opponent chose the occasion
to say n word for a full poll of vot-
ing strength-an objective which
kept party managers great and small
busy throughout the day, and far
into the night.
A forecast of fair weather for vir-
tually the entire country. with dry
roads in the agricultural sections OF

that tomOrows vote would be by far

LIEF ERICSSON

st. Johns, n. F., Nov. s-Belief
that the sIoop Lief Ericsson, with her
crew of three, has met with disaster
in the heavy Arctic ice along the
Greenland coast, was expressed at
Battle Harbor, Labrador, today. The
little sailing craft which set out
along the old Vikings course from
Bergen, Norway, bound for Battle
Harbor, was last heard from at the
latter port on August II last when
Judge Wells of New York, travelling
in the motor yacht Shanghai, arriv-
ed with word that the. Ericsson was
somewhere behind him" Two and
one half months have passed and the
little vessel has not arrived.
A telegram received here today
from a leading citizen and merchant
at Battle Harbor named Loveridge
states:
NO information whatever of
Ericsson. Fear worst has happened
to sloop and crew as Judge Wells of
New York in motor yacht Shanghai.
who arrived here via Norway and
Greenland on August IA and left the
nett day for New York informed me
that Ericsson was somewhere behind
him and intended calling at Battle
Harbor.
"Owing to the splendid August and
September weather | concluded the
captain had changed plans and pro-
ceeded to his destination direct.
Unlike the Shanghai, the Ericsson
depended on sail only during her
perilous voyage. The Shanghai en-
countered heavy Arctic ice near the
Greenland coast, barely escaping dis
aster. My opinion is the Ericsson
met her fate while contending with
similar conditions near the coast"
