oppressed go free? Shall Christian
Scientists be critized for their effort
to completely fulfill the injunction OF
the Master to heal the sick? Are we
so remote from God, so separated in
belief? Have they taken away our
Lord that we know not where they
have laid him? People strangely mar
vel at what they call miraculous mani
festations of divine power. But why
should they marvel? Should it sur
prise us to see concrete evidence OF
that one omnipotent God who governs
the universe and man in perfect har-
mony and order? The works of healing
and regeneration seem incredible only
because humanity has continued on
it's sorrowing. suffering way in igno-
rance of its Redeemer God is not in
all (their) thoughts. The operation o
Gods law should seem the most pre-

four in our neighbofhood. Through
his grandmother he has been taught
something of the truths of Christian
Science. Recently he wandered away
from home and was gone for over an

Christian Scientist, was full of fear.
When he finally arrived home quite
serene and whole, she said, "Oh, Son

AT this point there may be those
here who will say, "You ask me to
accept Christian Science on the basis
of the Bible. How can | do that :?
The discussions and debates of to-day
and the radical differences in opinion
even in churches of older faith than
yours have unsettled my thought.
How do you or know that the Bible
can be accepted as true?" Christian
Science does not ask you toaccept
single statement about the Bible or
anything else which does not coincide
with correct reason or that you cannot
fully test by demonstration. Realizing
this, Mrs. Eddy herself tested her dis
covery for years before she gave it
to the world;

Frank Manning was

Frank Manning was one Of the
"boys with no chance" He was
born hunchback in poor section
of Charlestown, Mass. His father
was freight handler on the docks;
his mother took in washing. He
was the ninth child. Slow to de-
velop and weak of physique, his
only schooling was three terms in
public school. When he was thir-
teen he was earning $1.O0 a day as
a dishwasher in an all-night lunch
wagon in Boston. He walked to
and from his job-a distance of
over four miles-daily. In the
summer of 1901, when he was IT
years old, he conceived the idea of
offering tempting and wholesome
luncheons 10 Harvard students in
Cambridge. The students were

courses. He had saved $115 from
his meagre pay and with this he
rented "hole in the wall' which
faced Harvard University on
Massachusetts avenue, Cambridge.
An attractive sign over his tiny
door read, EAT Well-Think Bet
ter" His specialties consisted OF
home-cool1ed meats, pies, iced cof-
fees, teas and lemonade. A widow
living across the street did the
cooking. He bought the food and
paid her ten per cent gross of his
earnings. Before winter of that
year he had sailed away 81 100 in
cash and all his bills were paid.

balance amounted to $4,000. Dur
ing the four years student friends
who patronized his place took
enough interest in him to tutor
him and at the end of the four
years his education was equivalent
to that of a high school graduate.
incidentally he learned shorthand
and became law reporter. He
sold out, moved to Chicago and
opened a large law reporting office
where he made a small fortune.
Selling this business he moved to

he did many wonderful works in the
name of God What was it, then, that
enabled him to do these works? They
were concrete exhibitions of spiritual
force, of intelligence What was the
power back of these healings, and
how is it that people are healed in
Christian Science to-day? This, my
friends, is the same question that was
put to Jesus centuries ago, and the
answer is still the same. 1t was the
Christ or spiritual and exact under
standing of God, of Truth, Life, and
Love, reflected by the Master, which
did the work, and it is that same spirit
ual scientific knowledge of God and
man reflected, in measure, by students
of Christian Science to-day which is
manifested in multitudes of healed
and regenerated men and women
This spiritual understanding, then,
was the Mind that was in Christ
Jesus, revealing itself in ideas or
enabled him to heal all manner of dis
ease and raise the dead Explaining
his works he said: 1.-The words (the
ideas or thoughts) that | speak unto
you they are spirit and they are life"
1t was the potency, then, of the divine
Mind which was in Christ Jesus which

is that same spiritual thinking of
Christian Scientists to-day that is do
ing the work which he said would be
done by those who believed, under
stood, his word or thought.
ALL MAY HEAL
One of the distinctive features of
Christian Science is the fact that the
power to heal and regenerate mankind
is open to all. 1t is yours tonight. 1t
belongs to no privileged class or group
of people. 1t is true that there are
thousands of consecrated men and
women who are devoting their lives
to the ministry or practice of healing
as taught in Christian Science, but to-
night any one of you, earnestly seek
ing Truth, may commence the study
of Christian Science and it's actual
practice, up to your highest light. To
night you may begin to approximate
the understanding of Christian
Science and apply it in your life and
the problems of your daily living. Do
you believe it blasphemous to assume
the right and power to heal as Jesus
did? Do you believe that Christian
Scientists are assuming too much in

NATURE OF The CHRIST

In claiming his spiritual heritage as
the reflection of infinite Mind, Jesus
thereby established his identity as the
Christ. This is the spiritual idea of
sonship to which Jesus referred when
he said, Before Abraham was, am, y
and, II and my Father are one"
Christian Science distinguishes be-
tween the corporal man Jesus and the
Christ or Truth which he exemplified
and lived. If Jesus had not appeared
as human being practically explain
ing and demonstrating in the flesh
this Christ-sonship, mOrtals would not
have appreciated or understood him
His healings were the proofs of his
divine sonship. and the Bible says that

SMA1L groups Of those who appre-
- ciate the unusual in music en-
Joyed a rare treat last week. when
Saveli Walevitch, singer of Russian
folk songs and gypsy ballads, gave
several interesting programs, includ-
ing one for the members of the
Women's National Press Club. Mr..
Walevitch has remarkable natural
voice of sweet, mellow quality large
volume and considerable resonance.
He also sings with much feeling and
dramatic shading of his selections.
Although he has been in this country
eight years, Mr.. Walevitch had his
first meeting with Americans when
he was still a small boy in Russia.
A group of American cowboys came
to his part of the country to test
their ability against that of the IA
nous Cossacks. The Americans filled
their great Stetson hats with vodka
and drank everyidrop in an effort to
keep the pace set by the Russians.
There were few things the Cossacks
could do that Americans could not do
as well. One, however, was the trick
Of riding at good speed and picking
up a man from the ground and put
ting him upon the BACK of a running
horse.
The Cossacks were originally taught
their famous 'knee-breaking" dances
so as to keep them in physical trim
for emergencies. The centuries and
positions of all these dances are those
which will prove advantageous in
horseback riding. So it is with the
dances of all the peasant or print
tive folk, according to Mr.. Walevitch
there is the up-and-do down, bending
motion and a rhythm that will keep
the dancers timber for riding in bat
tie.
Mr. Waleyitch's father was a mer-
chant, poet and musician. Saveli
Walevitch was born in Odessa, on
the Black Sea, Russia's famous port
that is a door to the Orient. Groups
of laborers, bricklayers. carpenters
and others passed through the town,
and while they were at the inns
young Walevitch listened to them
sing many folk songs in the patois
of their native provinces. Most of
