CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES

Christ Science Church service re-
port for Sunday, November 20: Sub
ject, Soul and Body" Golden text
lisa. 1858. Yea, in the way Of thy
judgment, o Lord, have we waited
for thee; the desire of our soul is to
thy name, and to the remembrance
of thee.
A Bible citation from the lesson
sermon: 1 Cor. 6:19, 20. What? know
ye not that your body is the temple
of the Holy Ghost which is in you,
which ye have of God, and ye are
not your own? For ye are bought
with a price: therefore glorify Go
in your body, and in your spirit,
which are Gods.
A correlative passage from the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
lures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Tho
material body and mind are tenn
pOral. but the real man is spiritual
and eternal. The science of be-
ing reveals man as perfect, even as
the Father is perfect, because the
soul. or mind, of the spiritual mar
is God, the divine principle Of all
being, and because this real man is
governed by soul instead Og sense,
by the law of spirit. not by the so
called laws of matter"

POTATO GROWERS MAY

crop is produced, although other
areas are expected to show some
decrease from 1888 paintings.
Average yields on the acreage now
indicated for next year would pro-
duce about 80 million bushels.
Yields up to the unusually high
average of the past two seasons
would result in a crop of approxi-
mately $50 million bushels. The 1888
potato crop is now estimated at 1913
million bushels-mOre than million
bushels larger than the 1926 aver
age.
I'm the intermediate states" Direc-
tor McCue pointed out, the total
acreage planted to potatoes in 1899
is likely to be decreased about 5 per
cent" The intermediate commercial
areas will show greater decreases
than the nOn-commercial areas.
Prices received for the 1888 crop in
the intermediate states were rela-
lively low and probably have served
to discourage growers in these
areas.
