 the breath of life to Tom Healey,
 and no player ever played the grid

 Al Hummell, Jack Freney and the
 others. One of his many nephews is States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald.

Christian Scientists Hear
Lesson-Sermon On Matter

Matter" was the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon in all Christian
Science Churches and Societies
yesterday.
The Golden Text was from
Isaih 1913. 1.-The grass withereth.
the flower fadeth; but the word
Of our God shall stand for ever"
Among the citations which com.
prised the Lesson-Sermon were the
following from the Bible: And
Jesus went about all Galilee,
teaching in their synagogues, and
preaching the gospel of the king
dom, and healing all manner Of
sickness and all manner of disease
among the people. And his fame
went throughout all Syria: and
they brought unto him all sick
people that were taken with divers
diseases and torments, and those
which were possessed with devils,
and those which were lunatic, and
those that had palsy, and he heal
ed them" Matt; 1923, 20.
The Lesson-Sermon also includ-
ed the following passages from the
Christian Science textb ook,
Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy: Health is not a condition
Of matter, but in Mind, nor can
the material senses bear reliable
testimony on the subject. The
Science OF Mind-healing shows it
to be impossible for aught but
Mind to testify truly or to exhibit
the real status of man. Therefore,
the divine Principle of Science,
reversing the testimony Of the
physical senses, reveals man az
marmoniously existent in Truth,
which is the only basis of health:
and thus Science denies all di-
sease, heals the sick. overthrows
Ease evidence, and refutes ma
terialistic logic" page 12o).
