~OL ROBERT R McCORMICK'S
~ Chicago Tribune is the most
treacherous single newspaper in Amer
lea. It's services to the Axis cause and
close adherence to the fascist line could
scarcely be improved upon by Herr
Goebbels himself.

disunity and discomfort at home and SLAM

Cormick's deliberate knitting Of Roosevelt,
Russia, Great Britain and organized Ia
Dor. In wartime his violent blasts dis
rupt morale, impede victory and threaten
a true peoples peace. HIS publication Of
an overseas edition for servicemen brings
his policies even more into the national
spotlight
This brief review of Mccormick and his
medium of malevolence is designed to show
what they stand for in order that we may
be on guard against their poison.

seen In the election of Tribme-backed

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES

CHRISTIAN SClENCE CHUhCHES
1.-THE people that walked in dark
ness have seen great light: they
that dwell in the lano of the shad-
ow of death, upon them hath the
light shined" This verse from
Isaiah will be the Golden Text in
the Sunday lesson sermon on
Christ Jesus" in all branches of
The Mother Church, The First
Church of Christ, Scientist, in Bos-
ton.
In Johns Gospel Jesus declares,
HE that entereth not by the door
into the sheepfold, but climbeth up
some other way, the same is "a thief
anc a robber verify, I say unto
you, am the door of the sheep
1 am the good shepherd, and know
my sheep, and am known of mine.
. And other sheep I have, which
are not of this fold: them also I
must bring, and they shall hear my
voice; and there shall be one fold,
and one shepherd"
Mary Baker Eddy says in Sci
erce and Health with Key to the
Scriptures: Our heavenly Father,
divine Love, demands that all men
should follow the example of our
Master and his apostles and not
merely worship his personality"
Again she says, "It is the living
Christ, the practical Truth, which
makes Jesus the resurrection and
the life to all who follow him in
deed"
