CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Seventh and Olive SITS.

"Unreality" is the subject of tho
lesson-sermon on Sunday in all
Churches of Christ, Scientist. The
Golden Text is from the Book of
Job: Let not him that is deceived
trust in vanity: for vanity shall be
his recompence."
The lesson n-sermon includes these
words of God as revealed to Isaiah :
Behold, the Lord GOD will come
with strong hand, and his arm shall
rule for him; behold, his reward is
with him, and his work before
him are as nothing; and they are
counted to him less than nothing.
and vanity Fear thou not; for I
am with thee De not dismayed: for
I am thy God I will strengthen
thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I
will uphold thee with the right
bend of my righteousness.
For I the LORD thy God will hold
thy right hand, saying unto thee,
Fear not; I will help thee
Among the passages from the
Christian Science textbook, Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy,
are the statements: Where the
spirit of God is, ard there is no
place where Coo is not, evil be-
comes nothing,-the opposite of the
something of Spirit" That only
is real which reflects God"

The South hand was bid extremely
we'll. BY failing to double two clubs
and then doubling three clubs. South
indicated to his partner that he did not
have too much strength in clubs. In
view OF this. North felt he could not
leave in the double. South then made
the daring bid of three no trump over
North's three-spade bid.
West opened the five of clubs. The
declarer, who was fine player as well
as a good bidder, Immediately proceed
ed to analyze the hand He figured
that on the continuous rebidding of
clubs by East and the lead of the five
spot, which looked like the highest in
the West hand, East must hold seven
clubs. He then determined that in all
probability East held one of the miss
ing aces and one of the missing spade
honors. South further decided that if
East held either both aces or one ace
and both honors in spades, he would
have opened the bidding originally.
Although the normal play would be
to discard a spade from dummy in
order to set up the diamond suit, South
figured that the safer play was a dia-
mond discard. After discarding the
diamond, he won the first trick in his
hand with the king Of clubs. He then
LED the nine of spades. which was
ducked by West and won by East. East
now led another club, which declarer
won with the l0-spot. He cleared the
heart suit. knocking out East's last
entry. and was able to make three
spade tricks, three club tricks and
three heart tricks, and at the end was
even able to make an extra diamond
trick by playing the king Of diamonds
after he had secured his contract.
Note that if declarer had gone after
the diamond suit, West could have
gotten in with the ace of diamonds
and played club before East's two
entries were knocked out.
