WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1920 A LECTURE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE PAUL STARK SEELEY, C. S. B. Mr. Paul Stark Seeley, C. S. B., of Philadelphia, Pa., member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., deliver- ed a lecture on Christian Science, Tuesday evening, April 20th, under the auspices of First Church of Christ, Scientist, Wilmette, Ill, in the Church edifice, Central avenue and Tenth street. The Lecturer was introduced by Mrs. Ernestine Schmidt. Mr. Seeley in his lecture spoke substantially as follows: The fact is as the Bible makes very plain that the one true and enduring man, God's man, is as stated in the first chapter of Genesis made in the likeness of God, that is he has the character and nature of God, and why should this not be. so? Does not a cause produce an effect like itself? Jesus made it plain that this is the fact when he said, "I and my Father are one" (John 10:30), one, that is, in quality an nature. Often he referred to the Father which dwelt "in him, in other words the Mind of good or God which was his cons- ciousness. . Man is predestined to be the living witness or evidence of God, His expression and conscious- ciousness, and to Phillip he said, "I am in the Father and the Father in me" (John 14:10). Man is predestined to be the living witness or evidence of God, His expression and conscious- 'ness, even as the sunbeam is ever the witness and evidence of the pres- ence of the sun. God's one agency of expression is the spiritual uni- verse and spiritual man. Christian Science not only presents the true concept of man but shows that it is attainable in some con- siderable measure right here and right now. It shows that in each and every one of us, and there is no exception, no, not one, there is a natural ability and competency to mentally work our way out of the wilderness of material beliefs, out of the net of material selfhood into out natural unity and agreement with ever present good, Mind, the con- siciousness which is God, our real life and being. The process is wholly mental, as Paul indicated when he said, "Be ye transformed by the re- newing of your mind" (Romans 12:2). Only forty years ago the first Christian Science church was organ- jzed in Boston. Since then nearly eighteen hundred organizations have been formed throughout the world. A publishing society employing more than seven hundred people is supply- ing the ever increasing demand for literature explaining the teachings of Christian Science. Christian Science is offering to the world to- day a volume of testimony as to the efficacy of its healing work un- excelled in the history of thera- peutic systems. From business men, educators, lawyers, judges, phy- sicians, ministers, and men and women of all trades and classes it is offering evidence of health and hap- piness restored to the individual. These testimonies may be heard in the Wednesday evening meetings of the church or read in The Christian Science Journal, the Christian Science Sentinel or the Herald, which is published in French and German. Tt was in 1866 that Mrs. Eddy over- came a serious injury through re- liance on spiritual, as wholly apart from material, law and became con- vinced of the present availability of this law for suffering humanity. For three years thereafter she studied the Scriptures most diligently and from them derived a fuller under- standing of this spiritual law of life and its applicability to every need of men. The results of these and the preceding years of consecrated study and research were given to the world in 1875 through the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," which has be- come, next to the Bible on which it is founded, the most widely read book in the Christian world.

USED CAR EXHIBIT IN CHICAGO ON APRIL 28 Chicago and north shore motor car dealers are again to stage a used car show, the date having been set as April 28 to May 5. The promoter is the Chicago Automobile Trade association through a special exec- utive committee. The used car show was not held last year, the first and last being two seasons ago. This initial affair was in every way a success both from the standpoint of the trade and the buying public. The great de- mand for new cars and the scarcity of good used machines leads the show promoters to believe that every car offered for sale will find a ready purchaser, soon after being offered. When the doors of the Coliseum are thrown open for the show, the of the Winnetka Phone Win. 1565 When You Hear the Call Open Road WiLL you have your Velie all ready for the motor trails to the hills, the lakes, and the woods?
