MIND CURES
IN SERMON
Dr. Walter Hubbard Convinced
by Experience Christian
Science Way Is Best

Doctor Walter Hubbard, G. s.. B.,
OF Los Angeles, after practicing
medicine for many years, using his
science and all its laws to heal his
patients, yesterday made the state
ment thai. "All that is required to
experience health is to exclude sick
thoughts by entertaining only Gods
thought of health"
Doctor Hubbard, who is q men,
Der of the board of lectureship of
the Mother Church, The First
Church OF Christ, Scientist, in Bos-
ton, lectured yesterday in the after
noon and evening In the First
Church Of Christ, Scientist, this
city, on Christian Science. He
was introduced by Elmer I. Bald
win, first reader of the First
Church, under whose auspices the
lectures were given.
The lecturer said In part:
Admitting that there is nothing
wrong as to the nature and char
acter OF God and of mans Terfec-
ton. we are Immediately confronted
by the fact that this conclusion ID
contrary to the evidence of the
material senses, that man is ma
teriaI, and that he Is imperfect and
mortal, subject to sin, sickness and
DEATH"
From this hypothesis. he drew
the conclusion that mans admitted
imperfection In health and mind Is
wrong.
1.-The Christian Scientist Is daily
proving that matter Is but a men
tai manifestation, an expression of
beliefs that are contrary to Gods
law" he said.
He concludes:
my experience In the practice of
medicine convinced me absolutely
that all disease is mental"

Coles Report
Mr.. Coles report follows
Under my plan, said Mr.. Cole,
"a man and wife who disagree must
live apart under supervision Of q
probation or marital relations court,
while their children are taken care
OF by state appointed custodian.
Then. after the misunderstanding
have been arranged or forgotten, the
couple can come together again
amicably, each convinced that the
other has. been true during the
period of legalized separation.
"A domestic relations court aimed
at the legalizing of marriage yaca-
lions and in other ways obviating
the necessity for divorce procedure,
is the thing I am working for.
1.-THE institution of such court,
together with probation depart
ment composed of men and women
of tact and common sense, can do
more for the alienation of the d.
vorce evil than any other thing.
Wherever domestic relations
courts are in existence, wherever
a man and his wife can appear be-
fore a Judge to tell their story in
their own way. without interference
from fee-seeking lawyers, 1t has
been conclusively proved that sixty
five times out Of one hundred the
Observation-Disclosures are settled, and
the divorce avoided.
IBIames Greedy Lawyers
"This State is cursed with greedy
lawyers who egg their clients on
in the face of possibilities Of con.
Citation so that they can obtain
more fees.
For every conscientious lawyer
searching for the happiness OF his
client, there are two searching for
the fattening of their pocketbooks:
The domestic relations court would
do, away with lawyers and their
fees.

continued Cole, that am not ad-
vocating trial marriages. A mar
riage Is not to be approached in
an experimental vein. But the fact
remains that human nature is human
nature. A vein Of irritation often
covers an abiding love. Give that
irritation a chance to wear off and
that love will show itself again.
Absence makes the heart grew

BARTHELMESS CO-STARS
WITH WEST POINT
Dick and Future Generals At Acade-
my Score Hit In Classmates"

Richard Barthelmess scores one of
the most compelling and realistic
Characterization of his screen career
in CLASSMATES" at the Bever-Lee
Theatre next Friday and Saturday.
1t is Dicks announced ambition to
bring to the screen his interpretations
of the American boy in all his life
phases. His "Way Down East, {"
"Topable David" Enchanted Cot
tage" and others have all done hon
or to that ambition.
But these successive triumphs, we
feel justified in saying, are eclipsed
by Dick in his CLASSMATES" role of
young Duncan Irving.
The picture is distinct novelty in
that great portion of its scenes ac-
tually were filmed at the United
States Military Academy, West Point,
and transformed the entire cadet
corps into movie actors for the pur-
pose.
West Point has always held its
doors rigidly closed to the pleas of
producers of photodrama, albeit
many have tried for entrance to its
almost sacred confines.
Here, however, we not only have
free access to all the closely guard
ed and traditional spots of the ia
NOUS institution-"Fl Filtration Walk"
kissing Walk,p Scamp Illumination"
and others-but we see the arrow
like young future generals of Uncle
Sans army unbending with glee be-
fore the camera. We are told that
Dick and his company lived at the
school three weeks and were person
ally assisted by the Academy author
titles in accurately filming the scenes
there for CLASSMATES" Such indeed,
is a novelty for West Point.
The story shows Dick as country
youth enrolled at West Point. His
rival for the love of a girl brings
about his disgrace just as he is about
to receive his commission, and he dis
appears.
How finally he redeems himself by
rescuing his rival in the heart OF the
Amazon jungles brings a thrilling
contrast to the delightful episodes
of West Point life.
Madge Evans, as the girl, appears
exceedingly young and pretty and
bids fair to win greater honors on
the screen. She will be remembered
by old timers as perhaps the original
child actress of the movies.
Others in the cast include Claude
Brooke, Reginald Sheffield, Charlotte
Walker, former stage star; Beach
Cooke, James Bradbury, Jr. ana 9TH
ers. And then, of course, there are
Major Henry B. Lewis, adjutant at
West Point, and the entire cadet
corps, who certainly "do their stuff
in real Snowman shape.
John Robertson directed the pic
ture with the skill of veteran.
The story is an adoption from the
stage play of the same title by Will
liam De Mile and Margaret Turn
bull, and is an Inspiration Pictures,
Inc, production, released by First
National,
