On this occasion, presumably

A Departure
This was a bit of a departure,
for, since President Roosevelt
brought about a change from the
time honored custom of inviting
only the cabinet group to the
Cabinet dinners for the Chief
Executive, the usual procedure
has been for each host to inn
port friends, from his own State
principally, with only a few
Washington residents and most of
those from the unofficial centin'
gent as guests.
When Mr.. Hoover was Secres

WILL LECTURE.
ON CHRISTIAN
SCIENCE

A lecture on "shristiaH Sciences:
the Idberator Of Mankind" was de-
Iivered last evening in First Church
of Christ, Scientist. by John Randall
Dunn. C. s, B., II Boston. He IS a
member OF the board OF lectureship
of the Mother Church, the First
Church of Christ, Scientist, In Bos-
ton. He was introduced by William
q. Biederman. first reader OF First
Church. under whose auspices the
lecture was given. The lecturer said
in part:
"Wbat would those who fancy
themselves opposed to this spiritual
teaching have II students do?
Would they ask the man who sta'"s.
and whose family cOrreborates his
statement, that he has been freed
from the torments OF alcoholism, to
go back TO his appetite and his bond.
aReP Would they bid the inhdel
who through Christian Science has
become a believer In and lover OF the
Bible, discard that holy volume. ana
tread again his cheetless, goddess
road? Would they bring back the
pain and anguish which in the cases
of thousands OF men and women and
little children have been baHished by
the touch OF this healing evangel?
Surely this is no time to oppose
the coming to saddened humanity OF
a spiritual message the certain effect
of which is the uplift and comfort Of
mankind. 1t might be recommended
therefore, TO those who feel called
upon to ridicule and revile the Chris
tian Scientists. that perhaps the SAT
est and most Christian attitude for
them to assume il to be found in
Gamaliel's sound advice to the would
be prosecutors of the Apostles as re-
corded In the fifth chapter OF Acts:
And now / say unto you. Refrain
from these men, and let them alone:
for il this counsel or this work be
of men, it win come to nought; but
il it be of God. We cannot overthrow
it; lest haply ye be found even TO
fight against God
There Is not a people on the
face of the earth that is not yearn-
ing for the comfort and healing
and joy that follow in the wake
of this spiritual teaching. In many
countries that one visits today, one
senses a feeling akin to dismay
over the increasing discord, unrest,
and turmoil. What does 1t all
mean? Christian Science answers,
in the words of Christ Jesus, When
these things begin to come to pass,
then look. and lift up your heads;
for your redemption draweth nigh
THE Master plainly foresaw that
an upheayaI, a bringing TO the sur
face of the hidden errors of the
earnaI mind, would accompany the
appearance of that promised spirit
of Truth which was to redeem
and save mankind. In fact, Chris
tan Science is explaining the pres
ent worldwide fermentation, and
bidding nlortals TO see therein evi-
dence that the night is far spent,
the day is at hand"

The Value of the
Bible
By the Rev. Edward TaIber

The Bible is supremely great
as an authoritative guide in
religion, and it is supremely
great in beauty of expression.
A great deal of foolishness has
been written and spoken concern
ing modern higher and textual
criticism destroying the authen-
ITCHY of the Scriptures.
All that criticism has done
has been to relieve us Of some
grievous errors in regard to the
intent of the Scriptures. The
Bible never vas intended as a
textbook on astronomy or
geology. 1t was not written
with any scientific purpose.
All parts of the book, OBJ
viously, are not of equal value.
Whether Moses wrote all the
Pentateuch Jas nothing to do
with the religious value and au-
thority of the first five books
of the Bible. The Bible is a
progressive revelation of reli-
gion, and no reflective man
would think of saying that GER
tain portions of Judges, for ex-
ample, are of equal value with
the greatest of the Psalms.
Christ did not hesitate to
elaborate on the law of Moses.
He gave to men a higher law,
He. said, than that of the great
Moses. He repudiated the doc
trine of an eye for an eye and
a tooth for a tooth.
Modern research has shown
the substantial truth of the his
torical portions of the Old Testa-
ment. If the Jews knew nothing
of astronomy as we know it to-
day, the Psalms are none the
less beautiful and authoritative
in matters of religion.
An intelligent reading of the
Bible demands an intelligent
reader. For one seeking truth

in religion, comfort in trouble,
a bulwark for faith, the great
problems of the Scriptures are
supremely adequate.
The Sermon on the Mount is
the longest single recorded ut
terance of the Master. But
surely it is no more beautiful
or significant THAI the many
exquisite parallels. Those mag
nificent short stories, the para
bles of the Lost Sheep, the
Prodigal Son and the Good
Samaritan, are supreme ex-
amples of lofty religious teach
ing.
The teachings of Christ are
authoritative. He gave to men
the greatest revelation of God,
and the most exalted moral code
the world has ever known.
Religion is not an exact
science. 1t does not use the
laboratory method. 1t boldly
affirms its faith in the good
ness of the unseen, and the care
of God.
Great prophets of the ancient
Hebrews had a superb insight
into the truths of religion. Amos,
Hosea, Isaiah, and many others
taught of the benevolent care of
an all-wise God! Christ exempli-
fled and added to their teach
ings. He brought the supreme
religious code.
The Bible is. filled with the
greatest poetry ever written.
Where can we find more
majestic expression than the
lamentation of David over the
death of Saul and Jonathan?
The Bible today as ever is
the Holy Book. With supreme
dignity, with ineffable beauty,
it tells of the concern of God
for man.
