Dubuque was wrong. Those Hearing
aids" were new headphones which
were designed to permit service men
to wear the new American helmet that

head and the back Of his neck from
bullets, and shell and bomb splinters.
The new headset, destined to play
major role in saving the lives of
American soldiers, has been provided
for our fighting forces by Signal
Corps engineers in cooperation with
the Bell Telephone Laboratories and
the Western Electric Company. Now
being manufactured in large quanti-
ties by the Western Electric Com
pany, the new set furnishes the an
swer to the problem Of how signal
men can wear headsets under the new
type steel helmets which come well
down over the sides Of the head.
The new and smaller set replaces
the regular headphones which forced
Signal Corps men to go into battle
zones bareheaded. It not only per-
mits them to have protection against
head wounds, but keeps out the noise
of battle and affords better reception.
The new headphone 10 somewhat SINH
lar in appearance to the hearing aid
worn by civilians. It has a fiat,
narrow headband made Of semi-spring
steel which can be bent to the shape
Of the head. -.
Miniature receivers on the new
headset have higher sensitivity and
fidelity of tone than did the old head
phones. This is due in part to the
fact that they allow the signal less
air to vibrate, since the insert focuses
the sound directly in the ear channel.
The set uses far less material than
the old one and can be used inter-
changeably with all ground signal
equipment.

In addition, all dealers of cars,
new or used, will submit their inven-
tories as of December 81 with their
rationing boards and receive a re-
ceipt from them for each vehicle.
1.-THE Importance of this ruling, !"
said Leo H. Mccormick, State Direc-
tor, "lies in the fact that an estima-
ted two hundred thousand cars
change ownership every m 0 mt b
throughout the country. If large
numbers of unused ration coupons
change hands with these cars, it
would mean that stable quantity
of gas would be available to people
who have no right to it, and we on
the home front cannot allow even one
gallon to be diverted from essen
tial driving needs"

True Self-Appreciation

There is a tendency among indivld-
uals to think either too highly OF
themselves, or on the other hand, too
lowly. Paul refers to this when ne
advises one not to think Of himself
more highly than he ought to think,
but to think soberly. Worldly self
somethingness must give way to self
nothingness, if we would find our true
self as the child of God.
Does it sound like belittling oneself
thus to speak of self-abnegation :?
Christian Science never takes away
something without putting something
better in it's place. This process is
not one Of self depreciation, but a
rightful sense of self-appreciation
gained from an understanding of the
real man in Science.
On the other hand, the deplorable
practice of self-depreciation, self-con-
demnation, establishment, is as old
as when Moses demurred to the call
of God to lead his people out of bond
age. Ask some Of your friends, care
you able to take this difficult assign
ment in my business ?" or, "Will you
speak at our club tomorrow" or,
evil you take part in the business
meeting of our church," and then the
excuses come. "I'm inadequate for
the job; / shall have to prepare my
self for long time;;" or II can't
speak in public; l don't know enough;
/ am afraid" / dare say that we all
have harbored such thoughts. Such
doubts often work secretly in ones
consciousness. The little gopher II
can't has cut the roots of many a
promising plant Of high purpose, and
laid it low.
Mrs. Eddy was not patient with the
excuse, "I'll try" or "I'll do my best"
Rather she insisted on, "I'll do it," for
she knew that when one questioned
his own power to do something, he
failed to know what the real power
was that was doing it. Divine Mind
posses all power, capacity, ability,
strength, intelligence, and man in Sci
ence possesses these qualities direct
from God by reflection. The motto of
the Christian Scientist is, 81 can be-
cause. God cam" Mans capacity is
based on Gods ability.
Do you not feel in your heart Of
hearts that you should be good
enough, worthy enough, capable
enough to- do all things required of
you adequately and well? Isaiah
writes, Behold my servant, whom ]
uphold; mine eject, in whom my soul
delighteth; I have put my spirit upon
him. he shall bring forth judgment to
the Gentiles." Respect your kingly
office as son of God, and that Of
your brother, likewise. Exercise your
God-given dominion! Act upon your
right to all good in every situation,
and at all times! A certain king had
not respect for his kingly Office. He
belittled it-and he lost it. You will
not lose, your place as son of God,
if you first recognize it; second, uti-
80 it; third, glory in it.

Budding Scientists Find
This Nut Tough to Crack

Forty finalists in the nationwide
Science Talent Search, all senior
high school boys and girls, recently
completed one of the stiffest aptitude
examinations leading psychologists
could devise.
An examination consisted Of set
of II separate statements about va
rious scientific subjects. Here Is q
sample Statement-read it carefully,
then answer the questions that fol-
low it.:
About 5000 stars are visible with
the naked eye under the most favor
able conditions. To first approxi-
nation the stars appear to be fixed
relative to one another on celestial
sphere which makes one revolution
around the pole star in % hours, So
minutes and three seconds. On the
sphere appear also the sun, moon,
and planets. These continually
change their positions with respect
to the stars. The moon moves east
ward on the celestial sphere about II
degrees per day, the sun moves east
ward about ! degree per day, and
the planets move mostly eastward
but sometimes westward at varying
rates.
Now find the correct answers TO
the following questions:
A. A clock which keeps star time
would have to 1: run more slowly
than our ordinary clocks; 2: run at
the same rate as our ordinary
clocks; 3: Run faster than our or
binary clocks; 4: have different
type of construction than our ordi-
nary clocks.
B. For the sun to return to the
same position in the celestial sphere
(relative to an observer on the
earth), it will take /: more than one
clock year; Q: less than one clock
year; 8: slightly more than one clock
day; 4: one clock day.
c. To an observer on the earth,
the celestial body which retains its
absolute position is /: the sun; 2:
the moon; 8: Mars; 4: the pole star.
The correct answers are: A, 8; B,
2; c, 4.

A Free Lecture ON
Christian Science
Entitled
Christian Science: Prayer
Made Practical
Leonard T. Carney, C.S.B.
of Beverly Hills, California

Member Of the Board of Lectureship OF the
Mother Church. The First Church of Christ,
Scientist, In Boston, Massachusetts,.
The lecturer spoke substantially as
follows:
Mankind, today, is in search of that
which will solve the perplexing prob
lens of life. The average man is
seeking for a simpler, happier way OF
existence. Find a man who is truly
happy, and you usually have one who
is healthy and sufficiently supplied.
It is sometimes said that Christian
Scientists place their textbook above
the Bible, but this is not so. They
are obedient to what is given in the
textbook, "Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy, where it is written Up. 49O:
GAS adherents of Truth, we take the
inspired Word of the Bible as our suf-
ficient guide to eternal Life"
The message of Christ-healing came
from God, and the woman who heard
it became the messenger, commits
stoned and equipped by God to bring
this divine message to the present
age. We receive this message through
her writings. Her hand held the pen,
but God gave her the words. Thus
is fulfilled the forecast of John on
Patmos who saw two witnesses to the
Truth who should evidence it through
out all time. Those two witnesses are
Christ Jesus and Christian Science, or
Gods law made available to humanity.
We do not defy the personality OF
Mrs. Eddy; she would be the first to
rebuke this; but we do accord to her,
her rightful place in Christian history.
Because God is everywhere, He is
properly defined as the All-in-all, that
is omnipresence, meaning all-pres-
ence; omnipotence, meaning all
power; omniscience, all true knowl-
edge. Paul recognized the nature of
Deity when he spoke of Him as "all
in all" Il Cor. 1929. From this we
perceive that there is nothing outside
of God, no wisdom, no intelligence, no
presence, no power, no being. He is
all-inclusive, all-embracing, alien
circling, .all-enveloping. Christian
Science clearly defines God without
reservation, for it is not to an I'M
known God that prayer is uttered.
God is defined in the textbook Up. $50
as "The great I AM; the all-knowing,
all-seeing, all-acting, all-wise, all
loving, and eternal; Principle; Mind;
Soul; Spirit; Life; Truth; Love; all
substance; intelligence"

Bordeaux Busy Port,
French Wine Center

Bordeaux, Frances fourth city
and third most important port, is
best known to the outside world as
a wine center, says the National &C.
ographic society, but it is also inn
portant normally because of its
heavy overseas commerce in various
commodities and because of the
prominent part it has played in
French history.
Thousands of American doughboys
of the first World war remember
Bordeaux as their landing place. At
LIE Verdon, a port at the Atlantic
end OF the Gironde estuary which
reaches so miles inland to Bordeaux,
a monument commentaries the
landing of the first American SOL
dier in 1917. The monument also
recalls the departure from this point
of Lafayette to help the American
Colonies win their independence in
1777.
Vineyards surround Bordeaux and
each large vineyard surrounds the
chateau of the owner. Wine cell
lars and wine Libraries" in some
of these chateaux were open to the
public in peacetime.
The fiat triangle of land between
the Atlantic and the Gironde estu-
airy, the Medoc Peninsula, is the
primary wine-producing area of the
bordeaux region. Its white and red
wines strive more for quality than
volume.
