that the secretary of the Triton Chamber of

Solomon Has
Imifator

Solomon's wisdom in :, determining
the true mother between the two APP
pealing contestants has been emulated
by modern judge using more mod
ern methods of arriving at the truth.
The moving picture camera was en-
ployed to register the emotions OF the
two applicants seeking the custody OF
certain little girl who had almost
from the time of her birth been under
the care of foster mother. The is
sue with the judge was not to deter
mine which was the natural mother,
as that was already known, but which
had the tender mother heart showing
unconsciously real concern over the
child's welfare. The. hidden camera
showed plainly to committee OF
psychologists viewing the film that
the foster mother revealed greater
emotion over the threat to commit
the child to an institution. This in
fluenced the decision of the judge in
her favor.

in it as an exponent. of American

A fifty-day trip to the Holy Land,
sponsored by the Christian Herald,
enlisted 519 recruits who were pas
sengers on the steamship Republic
out of New York harbor this week.
Many of the passengers are said to
have mortgaged their homes to make
this journey. Quite a number OF
them have odd notions about what
they wish to see or do. One hopes
to locate the spot where the whale
swallowed Jonah. One has an orig
inal poem to recite about important
events at the places at which they
occurred. Many have planned to
bring back bottle of water from the
River Jordan. Some are as artless

LECTURE ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

in a few moments of silent prayer, TO
be followed by the audible repetition
of the Lords Prayer, repeated in
unison. In an instant you could have
heard a pin drop, the peace and quiet
was so marked during the silent
prayer; and then followed the rev.
erent, audible repetition of the Lords
Prayer, all present T spending in per-
feet unison. The inspiration and con-
fidenee that came to those leaders
was beautiful to behold. Several ex-
pressed themselves as impressed with
the thought of its being the most eff
fectual prayer of the convention. A
minister in the audience said it
seemed as though the gates of heaven
had opened to receive that vast audi
ence into the presence of the AL
mighty. It is needless to say that
the convention quietly and quickly
resumed deliberations and soon NOM
mated a candidate for Vice-President.
The effects of this experience were
far-reaching, as reports show that
large assemblies in other cities, lis
tening in on the radio, stood in sill
ence during the silent prayer, and
many participated in the audible
repetition. 1t was an experience new
er to be forgotten, for it again proved
the power of true prayer, fulfilling
the promise of Scripture so beauti-
fully set forth in the 18th chapter of
John, 7th verse: off ye abide in me,
and my words abide in you, We shall
ask what We will, and it shall be done
unto you"
The following lines of a hymn in
the Christian Science Hymnal ex-
press the Christian Science thought
of what constitutes true prayer:
"Pray'r is the hearts sincere de-
sire,
Uttered or u~nexpressed;
The motion of a hidden fire
That trembles in the breast.
Pray'r is the simplest form of
speech,
That infant lips can try;
Pray'r the sublimest strains that
reach
The Majesty on high.
Pray'r is the Christians vital
breath.
The Christians native air;
