VISITOR DISCUSSES
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Paul A. Harsch of Toledo, Ohio,
Delivers Lecture at Cont
mental Hall.

A lecture on Christian Science, the
Road of Spiritual Achievement" was
delivered last evening in Memorial Con-
tinental Hall by Paul A. Harsch, C. S. B.,
of Toledo, Ohio. Mr. Harsch is men,
'ber of the board of lectureship of the
mother church, the First Church Of
Christ Scientist, in Boston. Mass. He
was introduced by Clarke F. HUM, first
reader of Third Church, under the aus
pices of which this lecture was given.
Christian Science has brought to the
world new concept of prayer" he
said. ut envisions in terms almost
revolutionary mans method Of COM
muning with God, who made all things
perfect, and of destroying false belief,
which argues constantly mans imper-
fections. I am not saying, please OBJ
serve, that prayer was not abundantly
fruitful long before Christian Science
came. but implying, rather. that in
Christian Science we get away from
something which every would-be Chris
tian has felt that he xperienced-futile
prayer.
Every desire for a larger sense Of
health and joy, every desire for the
dominion which is the birthright of all,
is prayer. 1t was the prayer of great
desire that Surged in the heart of Abra-
ham as he toiled up the slopes Of Mount
Moriah. 1t was the prayer of great
desire that filled the consciousness of
David as he stopped at the brook to
choose five smooth stones of which
he later required but one. 1t is the
prayer of great desire that each member
OF this audience has played in some
measure when thinking of himself and
this lecture he was to attend. Think
for moment of the cumulative effect
OF such prayer, and then do not be
surprised when you learn that many
sick and suffering persons leave Chris
han Science lectures healed and restored
to the full use of their limbs and
faculties.
yet desire, however earnest, is far
from being the whole of prayer. We
have to know not only Gods power and
His Willingness, but we have to under
stand intelligently that He already has
done every perfect thing we could ask
Him to do. Thus Christian Scientists
get away, as Mrs. Eddy has taught them
to do in her very wonderful chapter
on prayer In the textbook, from some-
bthing wilich has made so much of ahu-
man prayer depressing and at times
rather terrible. They do not beg for
sunrise upon their dearest hopes:
they affirm until their eager eyes open
to the glorious light of reality, already
Illuminating all that is good and pure
and right to be-"
