like trying to correct the child's mistake by talking to the chalk and blackboard and leaving the mistake still active in the child's thinking. "A sick body is evolved from sick thoughts, states Mrs. Eddy on page 260 of Science and Health. And on page 26l, Hold thought steadfastly to the enduring, the good, and the true, and you will bring these into your experi- ence proportionably to their occu- pancy of your thoughts"
 Declared the Work of God
 Tn the sixty-fourth Psalm we read, All men shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing That is what Jesus did. That is what Christian Science is helping us to do Instead of concurring in the works of the devil and accepting as real and unacceptable the sick ness and woes of material sense, it teaches us to declare the work of God, His perfect and harmonious spiritual creation and man, and wisely to consider and think upon what He has done.
 When Jesus healed the blind beegar near Jericho, he must have had very clearly in mind the work of God and realized it's perfec- ton. He knew matter could not cause man to see, any more than it could cause man to be. In mans God given right-mindedness lives mans eternal right t-sightedness Ma terial sense said the man had no sight. But Jesus, conscious of mans oneness with ever seeing Mind, said to the patient, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee What different points of view! The abil- ity to see, Jesus knew, was inalien- able from mans individuality, spiri- tual and perfect. Matters claim to give sight, and then to take it away. never altered the divine fact. Before the Masters clear spiritual thinking the false assertion of mat ter was nullified and the patient mentally received and expressed his faculty to see. There was no treat

A lecture on Christian Science entitled Christian Science: The Science of Health, Happiness and Immortality" was given last night at the Scottish Rite Temple by Paul Stark Seeley, C.S.B, of Portland oregon. Member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scien- list. in Boston, Massachusetts,.
 The lecturer, who was introduced by Mrs. Anna E. Larson, said in part
 How does Christian Science heal the physical body, if the body IS wholly unrelated to God or His man? This is an oft-repeated ques- tion. If child wrote on the black board. in his number work, two times three is seven, neither the chalk nor the blackboard would be responsible for his mistake. It would be due entirely to his wrong thinking. To correct the mistake, you would not address the chalk or the blackbard or the digits on it. You would direct your effort solely to correct his thought. His corrected thought would remove the mistake and cause the true state ment to fill it's place.
 50 when wrong mental state delineates sickness, a mistaken sense of life and selfhood, on the body. the Christian Scientist turns thought away from the material body, which has no more to do with the disease than the blackboard had with the childs mistake, and turns to the true, or spiritual idea of man as Gods image, fearless sinless, and diseaseless. He aids the patient to grasp something of the true idea Of himself and his God given dominion over matters sick suggestions. When the scientific fact as to his health is, in some degree. realized, the true thinking replaces the disease producing thinking, and the body, which is always responsive to thought, be- comes normal and harmonious.

PILOTS ADD TO ALUMINIUM
 WITH PARIS
Defense Drive SweIIed d with 600 Pounds of
 Strapped Airplanes

Two-thirds of Juneau's, aviation industry ransacked attics, storage bins and hangars today in an effort to contribute to the local aluminium pot for national defense with the resulting effects of over 600 pounds of duralumin adding to the rapidly growing pile of pots and pans in the corral on Front and Seward Streets.
 Originally valued at over $5,000 the aviation metal brought out by the drive was composed two plane pontoons weighing 300 pounds and offered to the City by Juneau flier Casey Rolf, and 300 pounds of as sorted cylinder heads struts, pistons and twisted propeller blades bur rowed out of the Alaska Coastal Airlines hangar by Chief Mechanic Burrass Smith.
 Late last night Rolf called Mayor Harry Lucas to inform him that his floats, obsolete from a former ship and valued today at approx imately S75 as junk. was ready for collection. This morning City truck drove out the Glacier High way to Roofs hangar to pick up the pontoons.
 Simultaneously mechanic Bur rass Smith dug into storage bins and scrap piles at the local airways to add 300 more pounds to the rapidly growing aluminium deposits part of a national drive to aid de- fense measures.

 Half of the cash left by Sorby, plus S2900 then goes to Miss Void in Norway. Court costs, delinquent taxes and other debts against the estate must be paid before the cash is divided.
 Cash left by Sorby, including bank deposits here and in New York and several promissory notes which nave been drawing interest, total more than $12,000. .
 Dispute over the Sorby estate has been waged in the local court since shortly after his death, due to conflicting wills,

Shortly there after, he made trip to Norway. Upon his return, he made out second will, leaving the entire es- tate to Miss Void. The second will was dated July IT 1889.

ment of the body, but a right evaluation of man as the conscious identity of all-seeing Mind.
 True sight is never localized in matter, nor is it subject to time, organization. or space. To divine Mind there is no nearsightedness, no farsightedness, no distortion, or dimness. These are forms of mate rial sensation, and as such, wholly false. Mind sees with the clarity of it's own light and intelligence all that fills infinity, from the infini- tesimal to the infinite. Its seeing is as perfect as it's being. This lucid perception is eternally active and identified in man. A familiar hymn might be paraphrased to read,
 I have no sight divided,
 All-seeing Mind, from Thee;
 Tn Thee is sight provided
 For all mankind and me.
 What We Have Is What We Think
 Listen to the conversation around you on a train or bus and you may hear something like this: I have had a cold for two weeks. It's getting to be a bore Answer. I have had an operation on my stomach and may have to have another in six months From a neighbor All our family have had shingles, and say, we had a time of it. Where do all these halves come from? To have means to possess. The only way one can have a condition is to have it in his thought. What an assortment of troubles mortals have in their mental kit bags, and how gener- ous they are in sharing the exhibit with all who will take look
 Since we can only have con- dition by having it in thought, it follows that if we can root it out of thought we will no longer have it. Of course, we can only root out what does not belong to us. The method of ridding ourselves of what does not belong to us is sim pie. It is by letting the true idea of our individuality as spiritual, Mindlike, Godlike, so fill and en- tighten our consciousness that we no longer consent to have what is really no legitimate condition, fac tor, or element of our true, God created being.
 Tn other words, identify your true selfhood as the reflection of God, Spirit, Love, and Life eter- nal, Stop consenting to believe that negative, nonsensical matter can, or does, identify you. Do not men, tally tie yourself up with that which only befogs and buries thought in the enigma of matter and mortal selfhood. Pray, as did Jesus, Now. O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee be- fore the world was. Mentally align all your thinking with the immor- tai, the joyous, the healthful. Pro claim your divine nature, and your inseparability from eternal Being, God.'
