CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
LECTURE IS GIVEN
Speaker Declares Theological
Thought Is in Error,

The most ~grievous error of scholas-
tbs theology is that of ascribing the
power of Jesus over evil and sickness
to the realm of miracles, said John
Randall Dunn, Boston, Mass, mem
Der of the board of lectureship OF the
Church of Christ Scientist in a lecture
at the Church edif1ce, 3348 Washington
Blvd, Tuesday.
Nineteen centuries ago the Great
Teacher of Nazareth pointed the way
cut of human discords. But have
mortals ever really acccT ted Jesus as
the greatest healer of disease ever
known? Have they realized that on
the shores Of Galilee were given
scientific rules which will solve knotty
lroblems of existence. Of labor and
capital, Of supply and demand. Ct men
and n%ations?"
The lecturer described the childhood
and later experiences of Mary Baker
Eddy in developing her belief. Mrs.
Eddy healed herself of sickness and
was able to heal others with the might
and glory Of the Word of God, he said.

REGISTRATION LISTS.

1t is very evident that the old
law requiring voters in Georgia
to register every two years should
be restored.
The new law allowing perpet-
ual registration was passed sew
eral years ago in the interest Of
convenience, but it has given
great Inconvenience, especially in
the larger counties. The trouble
is that there is little inspection
of the lists and the purg;ng there
of shows that the new law is not
suitable in this State. In smaller
counties, perpetual registration
will work well, where the voters
in the various districts are well
known and where, as one of
Savannah candidates SAYS. every
body knows everybody else"
But it does not work we'll in
the larger, more populous coun-
ties, and as the State grows, and
even the smaller counties increase
in population, the law of per-
petual registration will give
trouble everywhere. Savannah

THE BUSINESS OF FARMING
AT MERCY OF THE WEATHER

No business on earth is so COM
pletely at the mercy Of the elc-
ments as that of farming. The
very best crop prospects can be
ruined by a few days or rain, or
a few weeks of drouth. If rains
should come just as thew are need
ed and warm weather should fol-
low in Just the proper quantity 10
make the cotton grow as It should,
along may come a hailstorm to
tear the cotton plants in shreds
or beat them into the earth. Hot
dry weather, when cool, moist
weather is desired, may ruin crop
prospects. Cool, rainv weather
when warm, drv weather is need
ed NAV dash farmeks' hopes to
the ground.
You can never tell what the
weather will be. and vet the
farmer has TO bank unon the
weather all the time. He never
can tell how his years work viii
come out. because he does not
know Just when unfavorable
weather conditions will practical
" ruin all his prospects and set
Mt naught all of his calculations.
