spection' (p. 30 1T was to relieve the
sufferings of humanity by a sanitary sys-
TEN that should include all moral and
religious reform" The evidence is over
whelming that she proved faithful to her
trust. Each Wednesday evening, in hun
dreds of Christian Science churches are
held testimony meetings, at which thou
sands of beneficiaries raise their voices
in praise to God for the healing and re-
demption that has come to them through
the teachings Of Christian Science, as
set forth in the writings of our beloved
Leader. Fear, ignorance, and m%isrepre-
sentation tried to oppose her efforts;
but they could not stay her onward way,
for God was with her. In the hours of
stress and trial she turned u~nreservedly
ness for condemnation, unfailing charity
for censure and Misrepresentation. She
built for time and eternity, and a lasting
monument to her faithful efforts has been
reared in the hearts and lives of those
who have been healed Of hopeless dis
ease, redeemed from sin, and who have
felt that abiding peace that God alone
can give. It is u privilege to emulate
u great Leader, as she followed Christ
Jesus, and to embody in our lives those
golden qualities of love, purity, and hui
mility which characterized her holy la
bors. AS we contemplate what she has
done for US, We say from our heart of
hearts, Thanks be unto God for his
~unspeakable gift"

IN the neighboring pits, in the Bruay
coal field. events took a more violent
turn. Eighteen thousand miners laid
down their picks and went on strike
underground. The sub-prefect Of Be
thume himself went down to parley with
the miners. The miners listened to him
respectfully. then informed him Of their
determination not to work on Sundays
and of their wish to obtain an increase
of pay and an improvement in their
food rations. The attempts of the sub
project being unsuccessful, the German
military police interviewed and brought
up 81 miners whom it held as hostages,
threatening to use force if work was not
resumed. A fresh appeal on the part Of
the sub-prefect having had no effect
on the miners, the German officers ord
cred machine-guns to be put in position.
To avoid the worst, the men then dis
persed. The strike movement spread.
Very soon the collieries at Noeux-le-
Mines, at Marie, at Lens, at La Clarence,
at Courrieres and at Douryes were effect
ed. The pits and the towns were sur
rounded, the miners led to work by force
with fixed b%ayonets, and more than 900
miners were arrested. On Monday Oct.
18, loudspeakers on motor cars were
driven throuvh the mining towns to in
form the men that if work were not
resumed on the morning of Tuesday
Cl9th) not only would all the men be
arrested, but their wives and children
also. Furthermore, the Germans have
again threatened the miners that they
will deport $4,000 to 10000 men to the
Ruhr coal fields, where, they say, the
German miner produces four tons of coal
in the time taken by the French miner
to produce one ton.
One can judge from these facts that
the French working classes have truly
remained in the war; they are fighting
without weapons against a savage and
powerful enemy. We hope that u
comrades who have the good fortune to
fight in the open will acknowledge the
sacrifices of those whom circumstances
have condemned to fight in the under
ground, and that soon each and every
one will come together to build a world
worthy of their sacrifices.

HAS PINNACLE Been
REACHED BY
WORLD CIVILIZATION

Previous to World Wa No. l and 2
different civilization have flourished on
earth, wilted and disappeared, but o N
of them has been as all world-inclusive
as the existing today. Barring a few
scattering tribes, the whole worlds popu-
lation is included today and will leave
its indelible mark on the world of to-
morrow.
There were the Egyptians, the Phoene-
clans, Persians, Mongolians, Greeks, Ro-
mans and Turks; all had their fling be-
fore they fell in the discard and left but
little of any value beside a few meaning
less monuments behind them. In fact
their very achievements had the seeds of
their W destruction. Nc Tern Ger
many is a case in point. AS a matter of
fact, mankind has been the most de-
structive animal in natures economy.
Man Against Nature
Millions of years before man appeared
on earth, nature, by the aid of sunshine,
developed the earth's surface in various
ways but mostly by weathering the
earth's crust and inducing the growth Of
vegetation-than later animal life. This
process in turn stored millions of tons
Of coal and gas in various parts on earth.
It took millions Of years to do it but
the living creatures at that time worked
with, not against, nature to establish an
equilibrium between vegetable and ami
NAL life. This equilibrium was not
broken until man arrived on the scene.
The surface soil was even getting richer
and there was no gold dredging to ruin
the unreplaceable soil.
Through mans tilling of the soil and
with the aid Of mechanical industry, it
was made possible for the earth to supply
many times its former population but at
a fearful inroad on natures storehouse.
Thus China was deforested exacting
yearly tolls of life and property in annual
floods; Sahara was likewise turned into
a torrid desert and a million acre dust
bowl was created out Of a once fertile
grass bowl. This is not the worst and
most Of this can be corrected but the
wanton destruction Of natural gas and
coal for the insane Moloch of war is ir-
reparable as it can never be replaced.
This goes to show that with each ad-
vancement Of science it carried with it
the very essence Of its own destruction
as it only too often eliminates in the art
of war and the most scientific achieve
ment in annihilating all that nature and
man had created.
While man has been in possession of
the earth but a few thousand years, he
has used up more natural resources than
the dinosaurs did in the millions of years
they reigned supreme. Each period of
scientific progress, each period of eco
nomic upbuild always eliminates in war,
how most thoroughly to destroy in the
shortest time what we have so laboriously
built up.

Christian Science Lecture
CONTINUED from Page A


our human consciousness is purified and
uplifted, as we are renewed in the spirit
of our mind, as we entertain finer,
higher, and nobler ideals, this improved
state of thought will irresistibly express
itself in a better state Of health and a
better, more harmonious body. This up
lifted and exalted thinking is accom-
panied by two other great blessings.
When the troublesome mental cause Of
the difficulty is removed by the renew
ing of the mind, the healing is perma-
nent, complete, and lasting. The patient
is not only healed physically, but is bene-
fitted spiritually, morally, and financially.
His whole life is improved and ennobled.
The results are far-reaching and expan-
sive. He gains his freedom not only from
bodily suffering, but from many other
forms of enslavement. He attains do
minion not only over his body, but over
all his affairs. He is restored to his
original purity and integrity" which is
the normal and rightful condition Of
man. He is thus able to forget his body
and devote his energies to noble pursuits
and holy attainments. In the instance
of healing just described, the mans
whole life was transformed, enlarged,
and harmonized. Truly the Scripture
was fulfilled He brought me forth also
into a large place he delivered me, be-
cause he delighted in me-" He who turns
to God for his healing is made every
whit whole.

AUTO STAMPS USE
BEGINS JUNE 10

Sale of auto use tax stamps Of $500
will begin on June 10, Lewis Penwell,
collector of internal revenue for the
District of Montana announced today.
Available in all p~ostoffices and at the
office of the collector Of internal reve-
nue. in Helena, the stamps will evidence
payment Of the tax for the fiscal year
beginning July l, 1914. The stamps,
which must be purchased on or before
July 1, will be gummed on the face, and
will have provision IN the back for
entry of make, model, serial number and
state license of the vehicle.
Mr.. Penwell suggests that vehicle
owners, when affixing the stamps, damp
en- the windshield rather than the adj
hesive side of the stamp. This method
keeps the stamp intact, helps guard
against loss or theft. He also recon-
mends that each owner keep a record
of the serial number of his stamp for
protectin in case of loss.
Every owner of a motor vehicle which
is used upon the highways must secure
a $500 use tax stamp and affix it to his
vehicle on or before July /, the collector
emphasized, as failure to do so will sub
ject v%iolators to severe penalties imposed
by law.
Postoffices will sell the stamps only
over the counter for cash, not by mail,
and will not sell any for denominations
of less than $500. Owners liable for
payment of the use tax stamp for
periods of less than a full year must OBJ
tain their stamps in lesser denomina-
tons from the collector of internal v
nue.. Collectors are authorized to accept
cash, postoffice money orders, and GER
titled checks in payment. Uncertified
checks will not be accepted.
