or painful human history is ne II the,
reality of being, Man, who is Gods
"own image" is. not and never as inl
the dream state called mortc exis-'
tence. The real man is perfsct and
spiritual, and exists forever in Spirit,
God. -. Loneliness, self-pity, and
unnamed fears are false beliefs, which
have no place in true consciousness.
Spiritual JOY, health, dominion, and
progressive unfoldment belong to the
real man. O
Jesus said Matthew 5:25), agree
with thine adversary quickly, whiles
thou art in the way with him." This
adversary is never person, but is
an erroneous suggestion or present
ment OF evil. Disease, sorrow, and sin
are unreal, for God, infinite Love, does
not create or countenance them in any
form. 1t is, however, a moral offense
TO believe that, because sin is unreal,
it can be indulged with impunity.
Self-condemnation, self -excusing, or
self righteous rebukes do not inspire
true reDentance. But forgiveness,
ws s..4.~.ss, and increasing love Of
s,.ou will surely save one from the sad
sequrls r.l1ich often follow misguided
ir es, hasty tempers, and indiscre-

ever-presence of good will help all to
detect and resist the errors which
| claim to deceive and use them
But someone may say, Are there
not occasions when harmonious rela-
tionships can be preserved only by
frankness and fairness?' Frankness
does not always indicate a desire to
heal discord, but is sometimes an exhi-
bition of self-1ighteousness or lack Of
loving self-restraint. 1t is loving,
gentle persuasion, spiritual insight,
and silent prayer which heal breaches
caused by misunderstanding All man
kind greatly needs the spontaneous
expression Of Love and Truth, which,
comforts. strengthens, and inspires
one to do better.

Inside stories reaching Washing
ton are to the afFeet that England
and especially London, has suffered
greater damage from German aerial
bombardment than has been made
public through censored news re-
ports. At the same time it is also
reported that the British Royal Air
Force has been creating real havoc
in Germany and during the past two
or three weeks has been trading
blow for blow with the enemy.
While the property damage in Eng
land has been great, and several
thousand civilians have been killed,
the actual military losses have beerf
neglible. The morale of the peo-
pie is at high pitch, and England
is no closer TO being invaded or con-
quered now then several months ago.
Aerial warfare in England and Ger
many can only result in the eventual
devastation of both countries and
the loss of many civilian lives, but
it is doubted that aerial combat
alone can win the war for either
side. Incidentally, for the informa-
ton of those who are focusing their
attention upon the terrible toll of
life that is being taken in England
by the German air raiders, it might
be pointed out that reliable official
figures show that more people have
been killed in the United States in
automobile and traffic accidents
during recent weeks than have lost
their lives in England from the Ger
man bombing during the same per-
iod Of time.

tremely grave, but it does not take

A WISE MAN of long ago declared
/. ~ proverbs 1922, sHe that is
= a slow to anger is better than the
than he that taketh a city," What
his words and deeds may always bless
and never harm others? This spir-
itual desire is fulfilled by cheerful and
law of love. For this heavenly rule
completely wipes out the belief that
there can ever be a real cause for re-
sentiment.
One need not be disheartened if this
happy state does not appear at once
in his human experience. Trials some
times require one to be patiently zeal
Gus, over long period, in guarding
ones thoughts, temper, and tongue.
Many beautiful lessons are thus
learned, for moral, intellectual, and
practical abilities are often developed
in the effort to rise above difficulties.
=. Perfect, piritual thoughts ema-
nate from the one Mind, and these con-
stitute the only genuine thinking. Evil
suggestions, which masquerade as
thought, have no reality, intelligence,
or power, for God, good, is All. The
real man, Gods reflection, is conscious
only Of divine reality.
The human consciousness may er-
tertain wrong thoughts, which Truth
eventually rectifies. Unbroken har-
mony is experienced in proportion to
ones readiness, steadiness, and cour-
age in affirming Truth and denying
error. Provocative circumstances can
not dishearten the one who knows that
God is the only Mind and Life. How
often the individual expression of wis
dom, kindness, and composure affects
others favorably! The loving way is
the only right way to rebuke the errors
of self-will, anger, and recrimination
All seeming personal hostility dimin-
ishes and disappears when divine
Loves power is clearly realized AND
reflected.

and Founder Of Christian Science

ted by political observers Friendly
20 the Administration thai Wendell
Willkie, Republican candidate for
President, has been making heavy
gains during the past two or three
weeks and that at the present time
the race for the Presidency is nip
and tuck affair. That the Roosevelt
forces have lost much Of their form
er confidence Is attested to by the
fact thata full airy Of New Deal
speakers are being hastily sent into
the field In behalf Of Roosevelt's
candidacy, while the President is
widening great Y the territory into
which he is going for defense in
spection' visits. Unless the Willkie
surge dies down rapidly it can be
safely predicted that Mr.. Roosevelt
will find the time to devote more and
more attention IS the political stu
alton and to the making of political
speeches during the next three
weeks.
The publication of reccnt Gallup
polls has brought much comment in
Congressional circles. Most If the
national legislators, while remaining
on the job In Washington, are in
constant touch with matters politi-
cal back home and are receiving
regular reports from local polls and
from those actively engaged in the
political conditions and vote trends
line. State, district and county polls
taken by newspapers and other agen-
cles in various sections of the coun-
try do MT give the same results by
any means as those shown by DR..
Gallup in his poll. Emil Huria, sta
tistician for the Democratic National
Committee in the 1882 and 1896
campaigns, always accurate in his
own polls and predictions, is in COM
plete disagreement with recent find
ings Of DR.. Gallup. Reports as to
political conditions and vote trends
being received by both Democratic
and Republican Members of Con-
gress of many states claimed to be
Democratic by Dr.. Gallup are to the
effect that heavy Republican gains
have been made this year and that
the Republicans will carry such
states. Someone must be wrong, but
only time can prove who. However,
predictions are being made rather
freely here that, when the election
returns are in, the DR.. Gallup poll
will go the way Of the Literary Di-
gest poll in 1886.

practice.
Ill "The Road to Bankruptcy"
lii the field Of fiscal policy our dissent
from tho course pursued by Mr. Roosevelt
dates from his first year in office. We ex
pressed this dissent in 1896, even while
supporting him for reelection, and ven
tured then to express the hope that he
N0i.ia pursue i more responsible fiscal
policy during his second term in office.
Unfortunately, his course during his sec
ond term has become still more reckless.
We cite evidence at three points to sup
polt this statement
90 The fantastic silver policy Of the
Roosevelt Administrations scarcely begun
ia 1886 has now grown to almost incred
ible proportions. More than two billion
ounces of metal for which our Govern
tnent has no earthly approximately
hundred times as much silver as all the
silver mines in the United States produced
ii the year before this policy began-have
been bought by the Treasury at over
valued prices IN an artificial market. This
policy makes no sense, except as politi
ca manoenyre to win the support Of the
so-called silver bloc Otherwise it's
only visible results have been to drive off
the silver standard the one important
country which had previously been on it
and to take from other nations useless
silver IN exchange for our own good wheat
and OIL and motor cars and other exports.
There Is only one way to describe such
policy as this. 1t leads over the hill to the
poorhouse.
~ The national budget, which was
originally to be balanced SO courageously,
has been continuously out of balance since
Mr. Roosevelt entered office. The national
debt has more than doubled in seven years.
It is true that the new defense program
has now made a balanced budget hope
program was proposed the Administration
was operating under gigantic deficit and
spending far more money annually than
had ever been raised by taxation in any
year in the whole history Of the United
States Moreover the problem of the
budget is net less serious, but far more
serious, because of the new difficulties
presented by the defense program For the
sake Of conserving the national credit in
time of danger, expenditures other than
those for defense ought now to be cut to
point at which they balance tax yields.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
By CHARLOTTE SPENCER
Nuirifionin for fhe STATE Board

SPEND YOUR FOOD MONEY
WISELY

WADEAL
Economical main dish meals are
enc of the best ways to feed your
family well at low cost.
Protein foods such as meat, eggs,
cheese, and dried beans or peas usn-
ally furnish the basis for such dish.
These are mixed with starchy foods
such as potatoes. rice, spaghetti,
macaroni, bread. toast. crackers, or
dumplings. Additional vegetables
may be added
A six layer dinner is an example
of this triple combination of meat,
starchy food and vegetable. Grease
well a baking dish. For the first
layer cover the bottom of the dish
with one cup Of diced potatoes. The
second layer is one pound of ham
burg. Then one cup Of onions is
spread over the hamburg. One cup of
shredded cabbage is added and then
one cup of stewed tomatoes is poured
over the mixture. This is baked in a
glow or moderate oven for one hour.
If you have a glass baking dish, you
will be delighted at the appearance
0f the many cOlOred layers.
ScallOped salmon and corn is an
other main dish combination. Use
one well beaten egg. one can pink
salmon, one can of corn, one cup Of
bread or cracker crumbs, and milk 20
mOisten. Season, mix well and bake
in a slow oven for one hour. Left
over vegetables such as peas or
greens can be mixed with this before
baking.
pe,,, Y-e -. r.. -. a..... ..-...
kind Of beans. Mash three cups Of
boiled beans, add one cup OF dry
bread or cracker crumbs, one-half
cup chopped onions and one we'll
beaten egg. Bake for one-half hour
in a slow oven. Strips Of bacon or
of salt pork may be placed over the
top.
Beef or pork liver can be used In
Il liver and vegetable casserole.
Shredded cabbage, diced carrots. +.
chopped onions, and sliced potatoes
combine well with liver to form a
dish it is hard to beat for flavor or
health-giying nOurishment.
Flank steak or bottom round
eteak can be made more tender by
slow moist cooking with tomato
Swiss steak is a well known ex
ample of this. A variation OF Swiss
steak is to use thinly cut steak.
Wrap the steak around a slice OF
onion. Around that wrap a cabbage
leaf. Season and fasten the roll to-
gether with a toothpick. and simmer
it slowly in stewed tomatoes or to-
matO juice.
Macaroni and cheese, Spanish rice,
tomatoes, corn and cheese, creamed
chipped beef on toast, creamed cod
fish on baked potatO-there are in
combinations Of this main
dish idea.
Most families spend too much OF
their food money for meat, leaving
ont the protective foods-milk, eggs,
cheese and green vegetables. Care
full thought in planning economical
meat and meat substitute dishes can
often make the difference between q
healthy, well nourished family and
cne which is constantly on the bor-
ierline of sickness.
