Christian Scientists
Have Lesson On life"

Life" was the subject Of the Les
son-Sermon in all Christian Science
Churches and Societies on Sunday.
July %.
The Golden Text was from Luke
2O.37, 38 Nov that the dead are
raised, even Moses showed at the
bush, when he calleth the Lord the
God of Abraham, and the God Of
Isaac, and the God of Jacob. For
he is not God of the dead, but
of the living: for all live unto him."
Among the citations which COM
prised the Lesson-Sermon were the
following from the Bible: Fight
the good fight of faith, lay hold on
eternal life. Whereunto thou are al
SO called, That thou keep this COM
mandment without spot, unrebuke-
able, until the appearing Of our
Lord Jesus Christ: Which in His
times he shall shew, Who is also
the blessed and only Potentate, the
King of kings, and Lord OF lords;
Who only hath Immortality, dwell
ing in the light which no man can
approach unto; to Whom be
honour and power everlasting Il
Tim. 6:12 to first, IA, IS, 16).
The Lesson-Sermon also included
the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, Sci
eace and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
"The way is straight and narrow,
which leads to the understanding
that God is the only life. The I'M
Outstanding that Life is God, Spi-
rit, lengthens our days by streng-
thening our trust in the deathless
reality of Life, it's almightiness
and Immortality pages 1874, 4SO.

Who May Think?

Stopped by a traffic signal while
driving in narrow, busy street a
few days ago, my ear caught a ia
miliar, musical note. Just beyond
the sidewalk, through a big, open
door, a blacksmith was shaping
shoes for a farmers heavy team.
Horns behind me suggested moving
along before had finished looking,
but it was an inspiration to watch
this workman, SO 3lSillful and ener-
getic.
Moving-picture blacksmiths are
elderly gentlemen with droopy mus
taches, but not this man. He was
about 30, clean shaven and active.
The tempo of his hammer was live
ly. The hopeful picture he unwit-
tingly posed of postwar America has
come to mind several times since.
More recently l have been listen
ing to men discuss postwar plans
that involved moulding public opin-
ion.
