ative and sustaining law of all that actually exists.
 Mrs. Eddy has given us a con- else definition of God on page 465 of the textbook. There she an- swers the question, What is God?" with the statement, God is in corporeal, divine, supreme, infinite Mind, Spirit, Soul, Principle, Life, Truth, Love" She then goes on to tell us that these are synony- moustern1s and says that they re- fer to one absolute God" These synonymous terms all being equal to the same thing are necessarily equal to each other; hence, Mind is characterized by the substance of Spirit and Spirit expresses the conscious intelligence of Mind Prin- ciple takes to Love it's exactness and irnpartiality and finds there the unity of spiritual understand ing. The activity which is Life is the verity which is Truth and Truth gives to Life the power of is changeleSSnesS. That which is true is true eternally, possessing inherently the capacity to retain it's identity as Truth and successfully resist being anything else. Thus We have one God-infinite in His na- ture, universal in His being, change less in His love. An understand ing of God is fundamental to your understanding and emonstration of Christian Science. To know God is to be active, to be useful, to dwell in harmony.

Better World RemoinsMyth Veterans Become
 DisiIlusioned by
 World Conditions

Failure to keep the promise of a better world order was condemned in sermon at the Second Congre- gational Church yesterday by Major James B. Allan, Salvation Army chaplain, who said returning ser- vicemen have not found the better country for which they fought.
 Economic greed, evidenced by the black market is rampant, and ra- cial prejudice has advanced the speaker, who is no won terminal leave declared. Speaking of the re- tention of other "old hatreds," Ma jor Allan said, "Is it any wonder that returning servicemen are con- fused and irritated when they see the direction in which we are trav- cling"
 Recalling the promises of the first and second World Wars, the chap lain asked, What are We doing to- day to insure that these dead will not have died in vain."
 Nine members of the church, who died in the war, were honored dur ing the military memorial service. They were: It. William Valentine, Jr., It. Kenneth Coe, Bristol, It. Stephen Hart Butler, It. Frank J. Sharon, Pvt. Oscar E. Benway, It. John D. Coe, Pfc. Donald D. Viall, Pfc. George V. Adam and It. Col Thomas Henry Sutliffe.

God Deuine Principle Says John Lan1mons
Christian Scientist Lecturer Claims To Know God Is To Be Active, Useful

A free lecture was presented at the Women'S Club yesterday af- ternoon under the auspices of First Church of Christ, Scientist, on the subject, Christian Science: A Re- Hgion of oWrka." The lecturer John s. Sammons, of Chicago, H., a member of the Board of Lecture ship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist. in Boston, Mass, was introduced by Miss Gladys P. Macauley.
 MT. Sammons spoke substantially as follows:
 Christian Science is based upon the Bible, the King James Version, which is the translation accepted and used in all Protestant church. es. Mary Baker Eddy, the Dis coverer and Founder of Christ Science, quotes from the Bible 681 times in the Christian Science text book, Science and Health with Key to the scriptures" and in each instance with appropriate explana- ton and comment. She refers to the Bible as "the chart of life" (p. 24), and states further that divine Science derives it's sanc- tion from the Bible" (p. 146). Sci- ence and Health, then, is literally a key" to the Scriptures, bring ing to the sacred pages the spir- itual inspiration which is necessary to an understanding of them.
 God Is Divine Principle
 In the first chapter of John we read, Tn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" The or iginal Greek word translated be ginning might, with equal pro- priety, be translated principle (Strong's Concordance, Greek Lexi- con). In Christian Science we have God revealed as divine Principle, the primal source or origin, the cre-

 Announces Willingness

The first announced candidacy for the Democratic congressional nomination in the 5th district vas on the record today. The aspirant is William P. Doyle. Winsted, a party leader in the 31st senatorial district.
 Winsted Democrats nave started movement to bring the nomina- tion to their section of the congress sional district.
 MT. Doyle has issued the follow. ing statement:
 Several weeks ago. I was ap' praised of movement being launched by Democratic leaders in the 31st district to obtain the Fifth district Congressional nomination for candidate from Winsted or one of the other towns comprising the senatorial district. At that time I was asked if I would con- slider the congressional nomination myself but I felt that decision of such importance should not be made without giving the matter serious consideration. During the last week or 10 days I have had so many offers of support from other sections of the fifth congressional district that I have decided to per- init my name to be placed before the congressional convention to be held in the late Summer or early Fall "

their lives for a better country. We cherish the memory of George Washington who led his small, ragged Army of the Colonies against a vastly superior English Army to battle for the cause of freedom and independence. Sev- enty-f1ve years later men were called upon to sacrifice their lives in another struggle to preserve the Union. Although the question of right in the struggle is still cause for augmentation, both Armies contained men who saw beyond the struggle, who saw the rise of a great Nation.
 But heroism Is not exclusive to war activity alone. Records tell us of great sacrifices that have been made in the field of social service as well. The name of William Lloyd Garrison will live in the hearts of the American people for his steadfast loyalty to the cause of the Negro. We can still picture him standing in Boston Commons pro- claiming the equality of all men regardless of race, while angry mobs threaten to do bodily injury to him because of his doctrine. Jacob Riis in New York and Jane Addams in Chicago were troubled over the conditions under which men were forced to live. It was through the undying efforts of Jacob Riis that slums in New York were investigated and the first steps in solving the problems of Juvenile Delinquency were taken by the construction Of playgrounds and recreation parks under his leadership,
 These all died in faith because they desired better country

Sen. Morse Goes Ito Missouri
By DREW PEARSON

Senator Wayne Morse, outspoken Republican from Oregon, addressed the Liberal Forum, a non- partisan group of St. Louis citizens the other day. A critic of the Truman Ad- ministration from the left, rather than from the right, Morse was un- certain how far he could go before a mixed audience in the Presidents $ own state.
 When introduced, Morse began: T have been looking forward to this trip for long time. I don't know the state of Missouri very well, but in the last year I have become acquainted with a great many Missourians in Washington.
 One reason I have been looking forward to this trip is that I want ed to see if the Missourians meet in Washington are typical of the State. I am glad to see that they are not"
 When applause greeted this test, Morse plunged into an attack on MisSouri's leading citizen.

America has given helping hand" so often: She helped feed Europe during World War I, and after; she gave lavishly to a dew astated Japan in the mid-twen- ties; now, she has given the peo- pie of the Philippines their free dom-Americans are strange peo- pie.
 This is not to say that Amer jeans may therefore claim to be Christian in all Of the.r actions, but it is 10 say that they have followed the precep:s of Christ :n one detail: to share with those who do not have as much as we and with our enemies. The plea comes again 10 share our food with starving peoples. If we are Christ ian we will not hesitate to give as much as we are able. The mark of the Christian is that he gives sacrificially in order to help those who are not his own-for even the heather sacrifice for their own. Are we Christian-at least in this respect?
