CHRISTIAN SCIENCE "Christ Jesus" is the subject of the lesson sermon which will be read in the church of the Christ- ian Science on Sunday, Decem- ber 24th., 1950. The Golden Text is "Unto'us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the govern- ment shall be upon His shoulder." And from Micah 5:2, "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall be come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose doings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." Correlative citations from the Christian Science text book: "The term Christ Jesus, or Jesus the Christ (to give the full and proper translation of the Greek), may be rendered "Jesus the an- nointed," Jesus the God-crowned or the divinely royal man, as it is said of him in the first chapter of Hebrews: "Therefore God, even thy God hath annointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fel- lows." I The Holiday Season affords us the opportunity to express our appreci- ation to our many friends for their good will and thoughtfulness during the past year. And with this appreciation goes our wish for a memcrable Christmas-- : one that will be abundant with good cheer and good health followed by a New Year of contentment and good fortune. BONES OF CONTENTION It there is anything more ex- asperating than a wife who can cook and won't, it is a wife who can't cook and will.
