which additional funds might be
set up during the present session.
The loophole was the language OF
the committees report stating
that "if the amounts recommend
ed prove insufficient, the recla-

Maupin said the interest of the
reclamation bureau in the kenne-
WICK project was keen.
The committee explained its
action reducing amounts saying
that construction costs have been
declining SINCE last October.
In another place in the report,
the committee added:
IF experience shows additional
funds to be required at the begin
ming of the next session of con-
gress, after every effort has been
made to accomplish the approved
program within the limits of the

men. Members of the council,
Mayor Keolker and city superin-
tendent r. c. Rector met with
the representatives in Portland

during the negotiations.
The present council inherited
the sale problem from the pre-
vious council which had employ
ed engineer R. H. Corey to make
a survey Of the system to estab-
ish its value. Corey made the
survey, announced q value to
the council in an inclusive re-
port. The company turned down
an offer based on that report,
but the terms accepted yesterday
by the PIP & L turned out to be
on the basis Of the Corey report
plus additions and improvements
which had been made by the

The child's question touches q

inner consciousness and acknOwl-

Of mind, and satisfaction such as

1t is natural to be happy and

Founder of Christian Science,
says in her book Miscellaneous
Writings" Up. 81. IF we regard
good as more natural than evil.
and spiritual understanding
the true knowledge of God as
imparting the only power to heal
the sick and the sinner, we shall
demonstrate in our lives the
power of Truth and Love-"
The understanding that God is
infinite Life, Truth, Love, divine
Principle, and that man is spirit
ual, the likeness or reflection of
God, imparts peace which is in
separable from true happiness, a
freedom which holds no memory
Or consciousness of bondage. and
joy which is not at the mercy of
circumstance. Mortals commonly
accept the belief that happiness
depends upon material conditions,
upon circumstances or added
things. But this is not true. Hap,
piness comes of the consciousness
o. mans unity with God. divine
Love.
Christ Jesus made plain the
road to happiness when he said
Matthew 6:33), "Seek We FIRST The
Kingdom of God, and his right
eousness; and all these things
shall be added unto you" Seeking
the kingdom of God through the
expression of Godlike qualities in
daily experience brings happi-
ness; and the inevitable results Of
seeking God first are the added
things - peace, health, and free
dom from limiting beliefs.
4 Robert Louis Stevenson said,
"There is no duty we underrate
SO much as the duty Of being
happy" Duty need not mean
struggle or burdensome effort.
Real happiness is spontaneous,
coming from the inner assurance
that all is well since God is All.
We can as rightfully claim happi-
ness as honesty, intelligence.
strength, freedom, and all the
qualities inherent in the real man
made in Gods likeness. Proper
tionably as we gain more spiritual
concepts of God as infinite Life,
Truth, Love, as limitless Soul,
Spirit, we find our true natures as
His children becoming apparent.
Christ Jesus said John 15:1D.
''These things have ] spoken unto
you, that my Joy might remain in
you. and that your joy might be
full" He had told them to he
merciful, just. kind. and pure. to
be as little children. to have one
God and to love Him with their
whole hearts. to love their neigh
Dor, and to do unto him as they
would be dune by. He told them
to let their light shine that their
good works might he seen and
God be glorified. When we dem.
onstrate divine Principle in this
way, nothing can disturb the in
ner Joy which comes not Of mat.
ter but of Spirit. God. and Is not
affected by material circumstance,
person, place, or thing.
