Creams Used in
Sunburn treatment
By DONNA GRACE

so YOU went out last
weekend and got yourself all
sunburned. You poor thing.
Thousands of others did the
same thing, if that is any COM

We can tell you that skin that

exposure 10 the sun You won't
pay any attention but 60 right

the beach find yourself all nicely
blistered.

We are almost as reckless

though and thew alas, are now

protection is no longer neces-

Avoid lingering the spots.
Keep your hands away from
them. Don't let clothes irritate
them. Broken skin can easily

Rest as much as possible. That
area of the burn is a part of the
body where normal function has
been retarded. This always
means SOME disturbance to the
whole body function.

Shady
Spots
BY ISABEL FUCKER

IN EVERY garden no mat
ter what the size, there are lit
tie shady spots. These hooks
are most often neglected and
yet they can be treated so they
add much to the garden picture
as one walks around.
Probably the ioveiiest plants
for all summer long in the shade
are the ferns and the lovehest
Of these, 10 many people, is
the maiden hair fern. This can
be bought and moved in fall or
spring. and If the ground IN
which il is planted is carefully
prepared with leaf mold. woods
soil or peat moss, il should be
perfectly happy for years 10
come.
Verities
Other ferns which will do in
moist shade are the evergreen
wood fern, the spinulose wood
fern, the splecnwort and lis
silver variety, the heXagon
beech fern. the Christmas fern
and the lady fern. These range
all the way from one foot TO
three feet in height so give a
wide choice.
Then. in with the ferns there
ought 10 be something for color.
Now for color in the shade in
summer is not easy 10 get.

that he had made, and, behold, Il
was very good" Not only good,
but very good. No mention of evil
precedes this statement, because
God had not created II.
The Prodlaal Son
Mortal man believes IL TO be
possible to separate himself from
God, and to take up an independ.
ent course OF action; to think. and
speak, and act for himself, with.
out recourse TO the divine Mind
for inspiration or direction. He
believes he can go HIS own way OF
materiality and ignominy II he so
pleases! But, can he?
In the fifteenth chapter OF Luke.
Jesus tells about the prodigal son.
In the light OF what has Just been
said, let us look at this story, re-
Numbering that 1t Is parable,
and not the story OF a real person,
although incidents similar in every
way have been enacted over and
over again.
Jesus drew a word picture OF a
well-to-do family, the younger son
OF which, longing to get away from
restrictive discipline in the paren-
tai home and to follow his own de-
vices, persuaded his father to let
him have his inheritance, and took
1t with him into a far country
where he wasted this accumula-
ton upon false friends and in loose
living. And then came a famine
in that land-a depression, TO use
a more modern term.
He found himself in want and
had to seek employment. THAT
has familiar sound, hasn't it?)
He could find work only OF the
lowest order, according to the
thought OF that time, tending
swine. His false friends had dis.
appeared, no man gave unto him,
and he sought to satisfy his hunger
with the scanty fare provided for
the swine.
"As with many another, when
everything was at its lowest ebb,
suddenly his thought began to
clear. He saw himself and his

er saw him long way off and ran
and greeted him lovingly, and gave
a feast In his honor, declaring:
For this my son was dead. and
Is alive again; he was lost, and is
found"
No Lost Substance
Now, remember this was a par
able through which Jesus was
teaching a lesson to his followers,
which is a lesson for US, too. What
is this lesson? Well, can sub
stance, which is eternal, be lost?
No. because God Is substance.
What. then. did the prodigal son
waste? Nothing-in other words,
just a false sense Of substance, all
that he had ever taken into a far
country. Is there any place that
is far from God, where a famine
could arise: No, there is no such
place. Is there place where
man, the real man, could be in
want? No; where God Is. and He
is everywhere, there can be no
lack.
And he arose, and came to his
father" Who Is father? Love is
Father. The prodigal rose higher
mentally because OF this trial
through which he seemingly had
passed. Did divine Love delay in
recognition OF this idea which
seemingly had strayed? No. Love
had never lost sight of His idea
never lost sight Of him for an
instant. Man is forever in divine
Mind, forever reflected and held
perfect, whole, harmonious, healthy
strong. and prosperous. Had the
Father ever failed In loving His
idea? No. Love ever loves His
reflection. And Love is reflect
ed in love"

Texas, Sunday evening in the Up
slant High School auditorium.
: Never has the world been more
in need OF a restorative agency in
need OF a restorative agency than
today" he said. Material sense
is shrieking that destruction is
stalking the earth and bringing
Il TO a state Of devastation from
which IL will never recover.
"Discouragement and despera.
ton sit at the council tables OF the
nations, crying to them: Where is
your Cod"
Those who consider themselves
wise in this worlds wisdom seek
to answer this query with some
philosophy or ism, forgetting that
Isaiah concerning the coming OF
Christ Jesus, OF whom he said:
The Spirit OF the Lord God is
upon me; because the Lord hath
anointed me to preach good It'd
ings unto the meek; he hath sent
me to bind up the broken-hearted,
TO proclaim liberty to the cap
tives, and the opening OF the
prison TO them that are bound; to
proclaim the acceptable year Of
the Lord. and the day OF ven
geance OF our God; to comfort all
that mourn; to appoint unto them
that mourn in Zion, to give unto
them beauty for ashes, the oil OF
Joy for mourning, the garment OF
praise for the spirit of heaviness;
that they might be called trees OF
righteousness, the planting Of the
Lord, that he might be glorified."
Amidst all the present-day con.
fusion OF thought and action, what
glorious peace and freedom are
enjoyed by the Christian Scientist,
who. with singleness OF vision,
clings to God, knowing that He,
the only Cause and creator, is. the
Saviour of the world from its own
false conclusions and fears.
Right Sense Of Diety
How grateful all should be for
the teachings of Christian Science,
which have restored to the world
a right sense of Diety! Not only
a God afar off, but God at hand

nearer than hands and feet" A

knows no evil. who sanctions n
not: who says to the man of His
creating: You are free, whole,
perfect, strong. intelligent, healthy,
prosperous, progressive, and for
ever at peace with thy brethren"
THE teachings OF Christian Sci
ence have done great things for
mankind by impressing human
thinking with the facts that evil
cannot be present when God, good,
is never absent: that evil cannot
be anything but powerless with
God the only power; that evil is
