Christian Science

Probation after Death" is the
Sunday in all Christian Science
churches. branches of The Mother
Church, The First Church of Christ,

golden text consists of Paul's
words to the Corinthians: THE
last enemy that shall be destroyed
is death" A verse in the Respon-
sive Reading from I Corinthians
states, But thanks be to God,
which giveth us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ"
One of the Bible selections in the
lesson sermon contains Peters
charge, Beloved, think it not
strange concerning the fiery trial
which is to try you, as though some
strange thing happened unto you:
but rejoice inasmuch as ye, are
partakers of Christ's sufferings;
that when his glory shall be reveal
ed, ye may be glad also with ex-
ceeding JOY"
Among the citations from the
Christian Science textbook Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy,
is the passage Every day makes
it's demands upon us for higher
proofs rather than professions of
Christian power These proofs con-
sist solely in the destruction of sin
sickness, and death by the power of
Spirit, as Jesus destroyed them"

my church is the place where the
word of God is preached, the power
of God is felt, the spirit of God is
manifested the love of God is re-
vealed. 1t should be the home of
my soul, the altar of my devotion,
the hearth of my faith, the center
of my affection, and the inspira-
ton of my daily life. Having
united with the church in solemn
covenant, I will advance its inter-
ests by my faithful attendance at
its services, by studying its holy
Scriptures, by observing its ordi-
nances, by contributing to its sup
port, by encouraging its members
and it's leaders and by joining with
them in all good works. BY thus
honoring and serving God I shall
share with many others the life of
the kingdom of heaven"
Thus spake one who lived yes
terday, and thus should good men
of today declare themselves. Again
the Methodist church joins the
other churches of Ell Centre in in

What Are Republicans For?
. 1New York .Times.l


 MT. Everett Case asks this question in The At lIantic Monthly StiH dazed, divided and uncertain after their defeat they have so far shown singular inability to present an intelligent opposition Public sentiment the feeling of the people about their Government is one thing; intelligent public opinion quite another You cannot have an ef- fective public opinion without an effective opposi- Ition" You have propaganda You don't have all the evidence It is the prime business of the opposi- tion to see to it that all the evidence is heard"
 At present. Mir Roosevelt practically has the field to himself There is no contest because there is no effectual opposition. Tn Mir Cases opinion "the gravest threat to the Administration itself comes today neither from the Tories from doubt ing Thomases but from the collapse of the opposi- tion' It would be unkind to dwell upon the fatal stupidity of the Republicans, after all their lip service against spending seized with sudden tenderness for the veterans and voting against the Presidents veto when he was striving for economy and pension reform But take the devauation Of the dollar It may have been necessary, but it's implications it's danger "a precedent for cur rency mainipuatcn,' should have been pointed out. It was Democrat MT. Glass who strongly chal- lenged it. So with the Gold Reserve Act, placing in the control of the Secretary of the Treasury a Stabilization Fund of two billions. Here again in forming criticism of measure putting power over credit which substantially parallels that of the Federal Reserve and potentially cancels the latter'sp in a political agency, however well-inten uOneu, came rom MT GdSo diiu ACW OoiiCl OCilo- crats. Like the Government the opposition
 has important public functions to perform.
 Like the Government, it is responsible to the
 people for their performance Like the Gov
 ernment it will do its job with conspicuous
 success only as it develops party leader
 ship strong enough to be effective, wise
 enough to be restrained and intelligent
 enough to command respect.
 Such is the formula of salvation MT. Case offers the Republicans. Where and who are the leaders able to fill it?
