On Christian Science

A lecture on Christian Science was
given in the National Theater at
noon today under the auspices Of
First Church of Christ, Scientist.
The lecturer was James G. Rowell
Of Kansas City, Mo.
He said in part: Christian Sci
ence reveals and teaches true
knowledge of God. It shows us the
talsity of a concept of God as SUBJ
ject to changeableness and wrath
and asks us to rejoice in the spiritual
fact that God is love- as John ex-
presses it; that He Is divine truth;
that He is not only the source OF
life, but that He is life itself; that
He is divine principle. which Is also

the great and only cause, the one
and only self-existent being.
christian Science corrects oul
false and limited beliefs about man
too. It shows us that man, In the
likeness of God, his Father, Is
spiritual, not material. 1t teaches
that he reflects all the qualities o1
his perfect original; that he is an

Redland Rally Wins
Thriller From ConchS
By URIC GWYNN. JR

Key West Highs varsity five
last night met defeat at the hands
of Redland Highs Diamond
backs by score of 1851.
Collins, lanky center for the
Conchs, started the scoring of the
game with two field goals and a
free try, with Chambers, center
for the invaders, following up
with a fly-away goal for his club.
AS the game progressed spec
totors formed the opinion that
it was sin the bag" for the home
team, until the last quarter when
Rivers and Chambers began to
put on a burst of steam.
Living up to their nickname,
Diamondback Rattlers, the Red
land players struck Unexpectedly
from all parts of the court. With
the game going into the last eight
minutes of play and Key West
still in the lead by twelve points,
the invaders came from behind
to score 18 points and held down
the local boys to one point.
Making the trip to Key West
with the Epstaters were Coach o.
iR. Snyder and Assistant Coach l..
H. Green. A group of about
| 20 Redland High students, togeth~
er with several teachers from
Redland and Homestead, also
journeyed to Key West to witness
the game. +.,
Between two and three hun
dred local fans and visitors were
on hand to cheer for the home
team. The cheering section, led
by Chas. Ketchum and Louise
/ Niles. kept the roof of the gym
bouncing up and down on its
rafters with number of stirring
High School yells. Doing his
share of "whooping it up" for the
Conchs was Professor O'Bryant
of the Key West Jr-Sr. High
School,. Another old basketball
fan on hand to cheer the locals
was Chas. H. Ketchum, Sr.
Running score for this game

legislature would put stop to the
evil if it didn't do anything else
the entire session. And when
they did, I'd publicize that fact
with even greater vigor.
While l told the outsider of our
marvellous citrus groves and urg-
ed them to eat more Florida
fruit, l think I'd manage to sand
witch in an ad or two explaining
to the housewife that not all Flor
. ida fruit was fit to eat. I'd urge
her to be mighty cautious about
buying oranges and grapefruit,
! especially Florida's. I'd explain
that it might be beautifully col
ored, but still worthless as far as
eating quality was concerned,
and l would urge her to be good
enough to return it to me with
the wrapper in which it came so
that l could publicize the shipper
through the press of the state so
that the people of Florida might
know just who was to blame.
When it came to my attention
that any Florida community was
so short-sighted that during the
! tourist season it made a practice
of gouging the tourist and winter
visitors by advancing rents and
hotel rates beyond all reason, /
think I'd advise the public of the
fact and call to their attention
other Florida communities where
they could find welcome and
not be mistreated.
I realize that in so doing 1
, probably would be the most
thoroughly diSliked person in the
entire state. Before I got well
started on such a screwy cam
paign I would probably be boiled
in oil, tarred and feathered, and
run out of the state on a rail.
But nevertheless, such a state adj
vertising program based on hon.
esty, sincerity and fair play
would live in history to the ever
lasting credit and glory of Flor
ida. 1t would keep no one away
but on the contrary would so
startle and impress the reader
that folks would flock here in
greater numbers, for the world
likes a guy who puts his cards on
the table, who shoots square and
plays the game.
Florida is a great state. Her
people are hospitable and kind.
She is fundamentally square and
honest; all the bad that might be
said about her could never Off
set that which is good. But still
she has a few skeletons in her
closest and they will probably
remain there for our guests to
stumble on until we ourselves
find courage to drag them out
and destroy them.

Several gubernatorial candi-
dates advocate a constructive in
telligent advertising program fol
Florida. They contend that we
should make a greater effort to
tell folks in other sections of the
charms and advantages of our
state.
That's fine, but just what are
they going to advertise? Sun
shine-bathing beaches-mocking
birds-and all the other famed
attractions? Swell, I'm for it
But I would go further than that
Il wouldn't content myself with
telling just ONE SIDE of the
story.
Every now and then I'd inject
an advertisement for all the
world to read that would do more
for Florida than all the other
ads combined. I'd take liberal
space in northern papers and
magazines to point out a few
things about this state that we
now leave unsaid, but which
would be better TOLD.
I'd point out to prospective
tourists that along with the
pleasures this state had to offer
their journey over our highways
would be dangerous because we
hold the woods cow sacred and
that while enjoying our zephyrs
they must likewise dodge our
heiferS.
A few ads like that would &c
a long way toward bringing our
home folks to realize how back
ward we are in this respect. Al
the same time it would be so con-
trary to the usual appeal found in
advertisements that I'm inclined
to believe it would leave a fav-
orable impression on the reader
and react to Florida's good.
While I told them of the many
interesting and delightful attrac-
tons of Miami, Jacksonville
Tampa, Pensacola, Orlando, ST
Petersburg and other points,
think I'd point out that all OF
these charming cities were in
tested with loan sharks and sal
airy buyers whom the good peo-
pie of Florida permitted to prey
on the helpless, the weak and the
ignorant, making small loans and
charging as high as 800 percent
interest. Of course. I'd explain
that the racketeers operating such
institutions maintained a power
full lobby in Tallahassee and Sc
far no Florida legislature had
ever been strong enough to OPP
pose it.
l am inclined to believe that
a single page advertisement in
the Saturday Evening Post along
that line would cause an uproar
within our state that the next
