LECTURE GIVEN ON CHRISTIAN SCIENGE California Speakers Ad- dress Gathering in the Regent Theatre A fairly large gathering of inter- ested listeners gathered in the Re- gent. Theatre on Sunday afternoon to hear a lecture of Christian Science, delivered by the Hon. W. E. Brown, of Los Angeles, California, under the auspices of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, of this city. Mr, Brown, who is a member of the board of lectureship of the Mother Church, First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Mass, spoke on "Christian Science; the Religion of Now, "In part, he said: "To understand the Science of Christianity, the most important dis- covery of this age, it will be well to bear in mind that the Bible is the source from whieh came this discov- ery. Here let me brush aside several misconceptions which might act as a deterrent in acquiring this correct anderstanding of Christian Science. The charge has been made that \Ehristian Science is, something apart drom the Bible; Let me dispose of .this by reading to you the first tenet of the Christian Science church, as tontained in the Manual of The Mother- Church, written by Mrs. Eddy (p. 15), 'As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word of the Bible as our sufficient guide to ecter- nal Life.

This falsehood is forever exposed by the fourth tenet, which reads as fol- lows: "We acknowledge Jesus' atone- ment as the evidence of divine, efficacious Love, unfolding man's unity with God through Christ Jesus the Wayshower; and we acknowledge that man 'is saved through Christ, through Truth, Life, and Love as demonstrated 'by the Galilean Pro- phet in healing sick and overcoming sin and death." "Then there is a hackneyed saying, uttered frequently by those who gre opposed to Christian Science, namely, that Christian Scicitists are a pray- erless people. It is inconceivable how this parficuilar error ever presented itself, because nothing could be far- ther from the truth. The truth is-- and this may be ecasily=Christian Scientists devote more time to pray- er than they did before they learned of Christian Science; and they sec Hotpoint gives you greater cooking Speed OT until you cook on a Hot- you realize how fast electric cook- ery can be.

This question of prayer is one of the most important we shall discuss this evening, and, indeed, is of vital im- portance to all Christians everywhere and all the time. This is so, be- cause praper is the process whereby we are delivered from all mortal ills. "Mrs. Eddy's discovery of the Science of Christian healing is com- paratively recent, and yet Christian Science has proved its ability to heal all manner of disease and discord. From what has been said about the Bible and the practice of Christian Science, it will be clear that Chris- tian Science is not a. new religion and that its practice is strictly in accordance with the teachings and practice of Christ Jesus, and that it uses the same dear old Bible of our forefathers, that what has been ter- med Mrs, Eddy's religion is simply the religion of Jesus." MEMORIAL WINDOW "UNVEILED TO REV. AND MRS. MANNING Service Was. Surprise to Rev. Mr. Manning Who Preached There Sunday Albert Street United Church was the scene Sunday of an inter- esting service when there was un- veiled a lovely memorial window. This' window wag in honour of Rev, and Mrs. H. M, Manning, a former pastor of the church, who donated the site {or the new building. The picture was Hoffman's "The Light of the World." This service was well attended as many wished to see the memorial window and to hear Rev. Mr. Manning preach once more. x "From a Sunday school down in the terrace on Olive avenue, sevens teen years ago, this church has arigen," said Rev. Mr. Manning, "This is the Lord's doing. When first came to this community I could not see what was coming, 1 did not have enough vision to vis- ualize this structure." The subject for the sermon was taken from Nehemiah, 6:3. "And He sent messengers unto them saying, [am dong a great work, so that I cannot come down; why should the work cease whilst I leave it and come down to you." While Nehemiah was a cupbearer in the 'Persian court he heard of how the city of Jerusalem was lying waste. This troubled him for months which was noticed by tue king who on enquiring gave him permission to go up there and re- store the city. While he was doing this work there were many people who objected and who tried to stop the work but Nehemiah persisted in going ahead, This showed that whoever was doing the Lord's work was doing a great work. The work of God was one that was hard to stop, he said. The work of God will cease only when Christians are not growing in grace when Christians consent that the work shall cease, when the worship of God becomes formal and the church becomes illiberal in her dealing with the word of God, he said. As a preliminary to the unveiling of the window, Miss Lottie Arnold sang a fitting solo, "The Lord, Is My Light." The window was then appropriately unveiled. Every one was touched by this fine work of art and Rev. Mr. Manning was in- deed surprised to see the window as it was unknown to him what the nature of the memorial was. at the bottom of the window were these words: "A loving memorial to Rev. and Mrs. Manning, erected SPREE FTy by the family, -t SPEGIAL SERVICES KING §T. CHURCH ARE CONCLUDED Rev. J. S. I 'Wilson, Former Pastor, Was Speaker Sunday The series of special services com- memorating the burning of the mort. gage on King street United Church was completed Sunday when Rev. J. S. 1. Wilson, was the special speak- er. Rev. Mr. Wilson, who is now stationed at Brighton, was pastor of the church from 1915 to 1919. At the evening service, the speaker took as his subject "Making Christ First." Jesus had a claim to suprem- acy, he 'said, in three main fields, in his church, in the social and national life, and in the individual heart. "The voice of the people i is not al- ways 'the voice of God," said Rev. Mr. Wilson. "We talk about 'making the world safe for democracy,' but it is first necessary to make demo- cracy safe for the world. A Chris- tianized democracy is the only one that is safe." Dealing with a recent statement of a. German Socialist that "Socialism cannot be Christian," the speaker declared "That is just so much the worse for socialism." One of the great modern achieve- ments, he said, was the rediscover- ing of Christ by his own church. The personality of Jesus had been buried under many creeds and much ritual, and, while admitting that these had their place, Rev. Mr. Wilson declared that they must be kept in their place and that Christ should be kept in the forefront in all church work. Lastly, he said that there was a need of uncomprising devotion of cach individual to Christ. The musical part of the service by the choir under the leadership of AGNEW-SURPASS SECRETARY DIES R. A. Bauslaugh Was Well. Known Young Business Man The death occurred in Hamilton |General Hospital last week of R. A. Bauslaugh, of Brantford, a young business man who, as secre- tary-treasurer of the John Agnew Company, Limited, operators of the chain of Agnew-Surpass shoe stores throughout Ontario, was widely known in many parts of the prov- ince. Mr. Bauslaugh was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Bauslaugn, of Simcoe, and, in addition to being well-known in a business sense, he was active in military affairs in Brant county, and also served with distinction with the Fort Garry Horse in the world war. Mr. Baus- laugh was known to several people in Oshawa with whom he came in contact by his association with the Agnew-Surpass shoe store here, He is survived by his widow, a bride of eight months, by his parents, two brothers, and one sister. LABOR AND DEFENSE (Continued from Page 4) try as a new Department of Defence following the advent of the air mach- ine must ere long compel considera- tion of the question how best to unify the direction and control and co-ordinate the activities of the three defence services, for in practice they are and must remain interdependent Policing Duties The duty cast upon the existing defence forces in addition to provid- ing for the safety of the homeland is that of policing the diverse and widely scattered areas and communi- ties within the British Common- wealth. The effective strength of the Empire garrisons. must be pre- served intact and the forces main- tained, both in respect of personnel and material, so as to be capable of ready expansion and development should the occasion arise. These basic conditions of adapt- ability and expansion in personnel and equipment connote the necessity of a Research Board to keep abreast of and, if possible, to lead in the march of invention. Such a Board might well become an integral part of the defence forces of the realm. For we live in a world of the most startling changes and developments. That which was considered impos- sible today becomes. the accepted, even humdrum, fact tomorrow. Science has revealed to the gaze of horrified mankind a hundred new agencies and methods of slaughter and has increased their destructive- ness a thousand-fold. The composition and quality of the fighting forces of a nation are in the long run.determined by the policy of the nation itself, which, again, is moulded and developed in accordance with the character and extent of the obligations its statesmen have pre- viously contracted. Thus the fight- ing forces of the nation are, in effect, the instrument by which the ultimate purpose of diplomacy is achieved. League Obligations of Nations, in order to promote in- tetnational peace and security, with international co- operation, we enter- ed into an obligation not to resort to war until the matter in dispute had been submitted to the Council of the League for 'arbitration or inquiry, and by Article 8 of the Covenant we have recognized that the maintenarice of peace requires the reduction of armaments to the lowest point consistent with national safety and the enforcement by com- mon action of international obliga- tions, How far we have as a nation observed <the latter conditions is matter for argument, but the ques- | tion which would face a Labour Gov- | Herbert C.

Wednesday Special. 1§e¢ yard ernment is whether, in the problem of national defence, we were keeping them sufficiently in mind. The policy of a Labour Government must in- cvitably be based upon the honour- able fulfilment of international,,obli- gations, the most fundamental of which is that of promoting. interna- tional peace and sccurity, and prob- lems of defence would be considered and solved in a civil and pacific atmosphere. There has for long been a fear that our foreign relations are con- sidered in a more or less military atmosphere, and that, as time goes on, the Committee of Imperial De- fence which is responsible for the co-ordination of our fighting Forces, and of war strategy, is concerning itself in an increasing degree with matters of. a political and quasi- political character. Committee's Function The Committee's function is that of collating information, and advising on all defence questions which trans- cend merely Departmental interests. It is not technically a Comrhittee of the Cabinet, and possesses no execu- tive power, but composed as it is of the Prime Minister, the political and administrative heads of the fighting Services and the Chancellor of the Exchequer (with the Foreign, Col- onial, and Indian Secretaries should occasion require), its status is of the highest - importance, and its advice often of the most far-reaching effect. There is controversy at present time as to whether the Committee of Im- perial Defence: should continue or should be replaced by a: Ministry of Defence completely co- -ordinating the three services. There are substantial arguments in favour of the latter course, but the Labour Party, like the other parties, have come to no definite decision in the matter. New Proposals The proposal I would make is that the Committee of Imperial Defence should be composed entirely of Ministers. They would, of course, bring into consultation the military experts (using that expression as comprising the three Services), the representatives of the Dominions, etc, but the Committee of Ministers Cabinet as a whole, without whose confirmation none of its recommen- dations would become operative. In making this suggestion, I desire to make it quite clear that I am not in any way criticising the men to whose hands are entrusted the success and efficiency of the ' fighting Services. During- my short term of officc as Secretary of the War Department, the one indelible impression left with me was the single-mindedness and devotion of those in charge of the ! organized Forces of the nation, would remain responsible only to the; SPAIN AWAKENING TO MODERN IDEAS Country Emerging From a State of Picturesque Dilapidation Madrid, May Be Spain has aban- doned the Middle Ages for the Twen- ticth Century. She s cinerging slow- Iv but perceptibly from the state of picturesque dilapidation and gentle- manly idleness which has been her existence for so many generations and is bringing herself into line 'with the progressive nations of Europe, writes Sir Percival Phillips 'in this descrip tion of everyday life written on a re- cent visit for the London Daily Mail. The traveller who, like myself, re- turns here after a long absence is astounded by the changes apparent on every side. They affect all phases of socia land business life. The old fami- liar atmosphere of leisure and happy disregard of time has difgappeared in the large tiwns. People are workings harder. Old habits, customs, and tradi- tions are passing away. Fhe spirit of progress animates the State, provin- cial, and local governments. - It is like finding an elderly aristo- crat suddenly rejuvenated and imbued with the energy of a young and am- bitious' man. This is the real revolution in Spain. It has nothing to do with tangled poli- tics or fractional struggles for power. Undoubtedly General Primo de Rivera has been a powerful ally on the side of progress but if he were to be over- thrown tomorrow the spirit of New Spain would survive, as he himself has said, and the influence of mod- ernity would remain unshaken, REV.
