in operation three-quarters OF
century. Discovered and founded
in New England BY Mary Baker
Eddy. il hes long since reached
Worldwide dimensions. It's
churches encircle the earth. Its
periodicals. including The Chris
tan Science Monitor. an interna-
tional daily newspaper, are read
and appreciated in all lands. The
headquarters of the movement are
in Boston, Massachusetts. where
its affairs are administered by a
board of five directors. So faith
fully and efficiently do they dis
charge their duties that the influ-
ence Of Christian Science is con-
stsntly widening.
Prior TO her discovery OF Chris
tan Science Mrs. Eddy was seldom
free from sickness. Finding no
material remedy. she eventually
concluded that there must be A
spiritual law Of healing. As
spiritually minded woman and
great student Of the Scriptures she
naturally sought for this remedy
in the Bible. She found il there.
She discovered that Jesus in heal
ing the sick was not working
miracles but praeticing Science.
Having discovered the Science
Of Christianity she tested it on
people in distress and found that
she could relieve them. She next
set forth the teachings of Chris
tan Science in her famous volume
Science and Health with Key TO
the Scriptures" The book can be
read in any public library or in any
Christian Science Reading Room.
Many people have been healed Of
serious ailments by studying its
pages.
Science in our times has gone as
widely abroad perhaps as has the
Sermon on the Mount. In other
words it has permeated universal
thought. There is hardly person
in western civilization who is not
talking a different and a better
language, who is not pursuing a
different and a better life, who is
not living in different and
better world, because this great
woman has lived and labored here
REMEDY FOR LAWLESSNESS
Every individual can make the
world better. He can have part in
quoting the present unrest. This
he can accomplish by recognizing
and insisting that the Lord God
omnipotent reigneth. We all know
that He does reign, reign wisely
and absolutely. We should be suf-
ficiently alert and just and rever-
ent to admit the fact. In this very
admission, this very recognition,
We help to make of none effect
the turbulence at large in the
earth.
The world, with its affairs and
its people, is after all is said and
done, governed by the one and only
Mind. Chaos and disorder there
fore cannot run riot. The world
is at peace when divine Mind
governs. Sinister intrigue. selfish
ambition, attempts at ruthless
domination are then unavailing.
The certain effect of a constant
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1940-06-22

for the prize of the high calling Of
God in Christ Jesus"
You remember the morning
Jesus was brought before PLATE,
charged with making himself
king. At one point in the trial
where he refused to talk, Plate
said TO him: "Speaketh thou not
unto me? Knowest thou not that
I have power to cruelty thee and
have power to release thee ?"
Thou couldest have no power at
all against me" answered Jesus,
except it were given thee from
above"
Then PLATE delivered him to his
accusers and he was executed. But
presently Jesus was back alive the
same man he was before. How
little the conspiracy accomplished
except to speed and glorify the
career of that great man. There
was not power enough in the
clamorous rabble or even in the
Roman government to defeat the
purpose God had for Jesus.
There il no circumstance, no in
justice, no power in this world to
defeat the purpose God has for
you. If you make the right choice
and stay resolutely with it. And
life is still before you.

IDENTITY IN THE
HEREAFTER

Docs this not help you to under
stand what takes place when one
falls into the last sleep? Immedi-
ately consciousness evolves an
other BODY unseen by anxious
friends. The departed, becoming
invisible in the form we are accus-
toned to, take on another form
which our dull senses cannot COM
prehend. But with vision quick
ened by the truths Of Christian
Science we shall some day see
that the real man does not come,
age, sicken, or depart. We shall
see that the real man is, was, and
will be. He lives on and on in
definitely, maintaining his identity.
distinguishable and recognizable,
made in the pattern Of endless
Life.
Things of Spirit may seem at
first approach elusive TO him ac-
customed to deal with the sup
posedly sure, firm things of mat
ter. But if difficult TO define, they
are impossible to deny. In num-
Der they are as the sands of the
shore. In unison they are the sub
stance of spiritual man. Outstand-
ing among them are affection,
fsithfulness, generosity, acumen,
integrity.
Integrity as God knows IT. Can
there be time or place from which
it is ABSENT From everlasting to
everlasting it endures in form
more palpable to enlightened
vision than the wayside rock to
darkened material sense. So it is
of all divine qualities or ideas.
They exist in mold and structure
as tangible as they are permanent.
Not one of them can lose or sur
render its identity. And as they
are when viewed singly SO must
they be whom fifty joined together
in man.
Birth is not the beginning Of an
individuals existence and death is
not its conclusion. Birth and
death are events in the voyage
OF human experience. Can you
not believe that you were some
thing before? That you will be
something after?

PUTTING ASIDE SkEPTICIsM
Not a person should walk out Of
this auditorium the same person he
was when he came in. Each one
of you should depart with more
hope, strength, courage, and en-
durance than you had an hour ago.
Many Of you could well spare ten
years Of age or ten pounds of
weight. Why not allow these I'M
desirables To dissipate and depart
along with your aches and failures
and loneliness? They are not
actualities. They are receptions.
You can lose them all IL you will
suspend your unbelief long enough
to permit the truths you are hear
ing to take lodgment in mentality.
II Is not an easy thing for
person to revise his opinions, to
subdue his preJudices, to waive his
skepticism. II is 80 much easier
to say: These pronouneements
are wonderful. They may be true

they TO do with me? ?" They have
everything 10 do with you. for are
you not in your genuine makeup
a spiritual man?
Accept these precious gifts of
the Almighty which hitherto you
may have been putting aside.
Yours is the life that does not
come or age or fail or despair or
sicken or fade out; yours is the
life which by the grace of God is
invincible.
As you silently talk these truths
over with yourself, while at rest
or at work, you will become aware
Of better body, a better intellect,
better career, better world.
You will come more certainly into
the possession Of that Life whose
joys eternal flow.
