COMMUNICATION
Boise, Idaho

February 8, 1925
Editor, Mountain Home Republican
viii you allow me to correct
| through your columns, an entirely
erroneous and misleading statement
which your readers received in a re-
cent issue of your paper. In debat-
ing on the legislative floor in Boise
the bill providing for the reading of
the bible in public schools of Idaho,
without comment or Interpretation,
the statement was made that Chris
| tian Scientists do not believe the
bible. This statement could never
have been made by one familiar with
the facts. 1t is directly contrary to
the truth. The first tenet of Chris
tian Science, on page 497 of the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
lures" by Mary Baker Eddy reads:
"As adherents of Truth We take the
inspired Word of the Bible as our
sufficient guide to eternal life" and
in relating how She was led to the
discovery of Christian Science, Mrs.
Eddy on page 1875 of our textbook
states: ''The bible was my only au-
thority, l had no other guide in the
straight and narrow way of Truth
Based entirely on the bible, ON the
teachings and demonstrations of Je-
sus, of the prophets and of the apos-
ties, Christian Science has led many
thousands, who formerly seldom open
ed the covers of the bible to become
its daily students. 1t is teaching them
not only to believe it, but to love it.
Its adherents trustingly believing the
bible promises are successfully work
ing out their daily problems of the !
health, peace, harmony and supply. |
They are willing through their re-
lance on these Bible truths to de-
pend on God, not only for their own
health and happiness of those who
are most dear to them Could there
be greater proof of their belief? Dis
believing the bible there could be no
belief in the teaching of Christian
Science as they are absolutely insep-
arabic.
1t is to be regretted that, with
nearly every public library having its
copy of the Christian Science text
book and full information as to its
teachings being so easily obtainable,
still such absurd charges with refer
ence to 1t should be made, for it is
very generally admitted that there
are no more faithful students of the
bible than are the members of the
Christian Science denomination.
Sincerely,

THE CROSSWORD PUZZLE

AS is the case of all "fads" the
pros and ICONS" are aroused. The
latest of these. the cross word puz-
zle has caused a great deal of discus
sion. Many people believe that a
crossword puzzle is just a silly game
but if one really applies himself, he
will find that those little blank
blocks necessitate great deal of
hard study and concentration. A
steady use of the dictionary is also
procured Encyclopedias, histories,
literature, foreign languages and
maps are consulted to probably,
three letter word
This search for synonyms natur-
ally cultivates the memory and adds
to the vocabulary. Subjects that
have been forgotten are brought to
light. New words are brought into
use and old ones sometimes discard
ed.
A student might profitably spend
his time on the latest fad and really
get come benefit and knowledge from
it. The variety of words that sweeps
in, though sometimes unawares,
builds up, bit by bit vocabulary
which enables the student to express
his thoughts fiuently He is able to
express himself more clearly and can
also grasp with a greater understand
ing his fellow students meaning. /
Words are the only keys to thoughts
and these keys are found only
through study of words.

THE GARDEN IN THE HEART
Though summer goes and winter
comes,
And the roses fade and fall
From off the garden wall,
There's still that garden in the
heart
Where love and roses do their part.
Though summers last sweet token
Is fading, heart broken
By the ripping little stream;
Like loves sweet youthful dream,
There's still that garden in the
heart
Where love has done its part.
Like the flowers that fade and fall,
The friends of life leave us be-
hind,
AS if it were all designed
That jems of Life should all depart,
And only leave a garden in the
heart.
Like those last sweet tokens of sum-
mer's glad array,
We fade and fall, from off the
wall, in a single day,
And find our doom
In deepest gloom,
Within the garden of our hearts
Where tolls of life have done their
part.

Dover. Foxcroft, Me-, May %
Workmen at Merrills saw mill, loca-
ted only short distance from the
scene of the fire at Dover Foxcroft
which caused a quarter of a million
dollars damage early Thursday
morning. discovered Friday morning
a bunch Of tarred rope and kinddling
under the southwest corner of the
mill. The finding led to other inves-
legations around in that section of
the village which resulted in the
finding of several other piles of rope
and soft wood edgings. The person
who placed these piles Of infiamables
was evidently adept al building fires.
All of the piles were similar. con-
structed and consisted of several
large handfuls of tarred rope over
which was crosspiled about an arm
full of dry soft wood kindling. They
were placed where their flames
would readily ignite with buildings
and rows Of spoolbars.
One of the piles, was found under
the cider mill and vinegar factory
owned by Charles Dearth, former
sheriff of this county.
Sheriff John H. Weymouth denied
that the county officials had any
reason to suspect that the l. w. w.
organization was connected with the
setting of the fires. He claims that
up to the present time they have no
direct clue to work upon. Three
tramps were brought into the court
house Friday and questioned but
thew all proved a perfect alibi.

Plan Republican :.
Conferences Next Fall
In Several Sections

Washington, May 22-(AP)-Plans
for maintaining, and if possible in
creasing, the Republican strength In
congress in the 1926 elections Will
be discussed at conferences Senator
Butler of Massachusetts,. chairman
of the Republican national commit
tee, will hold next fall in various
sections of the country.
Mr.. Butler. VINO was here today in
connection with his committee and
senatorial duties, said he expected to
meet a group of party leaders IN
Chicago, probably in September. So
much interest is being shown in par
ty affairs, he added, that he has de-
cided to visit other cities and per.
haps go to the Pacific coast.
He expects during such conferences
to nav particular attention to the
situation in Wisconsin and In other
northwestern staes. Mr.. Butler said
the Republican campaign slogan IN
next years congressional elections
undoubtedly would call for support
of the president and his policies.

panel of four jurors was sworn III
late today, five days being necessary
