"SUBSTANCE" IS CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LESSON - SERMON "Will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?" This verse from I Kings is part of a Bible Lesson-Sermon titled "Substance" to be read this Sunday in the McHenry Christian Science chiirch„ One of the selections to be read from the denominational textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, is the following: "The everlasting I AM is not bounded nor compressed within the narrow limits of physical humanity, nor can he be understood aright through mortal concepts. The precise form of God must be of small importance in comparison with the sublime question, What is infinite Mind of divine Love?" Services at Christian Science society, Lincoln road and Eastwood lane begin at 10:30 a.m. All are welcome.

COUNTY FUNDS INVESTED FOR HIGH INTEREST County funds are well" invested, if the latest report of the county Treasurer is any indication. Cal Skinner, Jr., reports that county investments are earning an average of 5.54 percent interest, with some»in-| vestments in federal securities bringing in as much as fi.4percent. Not only is the return on the public's money high, but the investment of county funds is about as complete a$ one can imagine. Skinner points out that of the funds he can invest, over 97 percent were invested. This is an increase of about 3 percent over last year. Over $3 million is invested. In the county's General Fund accounts, for instance, less than $28,000 out of over $2 million remained,uninvested as of Feb. 28, 1969.. Skinner reports, "Investments have been made so that a minimum cash balance is necessary except just prior to the time when bills are paid. TAX FRAUD AUDITOR State Revenue Director George E.

Father John Strazalka, Pastor Sleep in Heavenly Peace Peacc is a baby sleeping. Peace is a walk in God's forests. Peace is gentle Love for one another. Great u ord . . . Peace! We see it in the newspapers, on T.V., in magazines beside horror pictures of war and carnage. But, Peace is not something outside ourselves. It is within. It is the quiet calmness of mind and soul, unperturbed, undismayed. But it is difficult to acquire this frame of mind, this elusive state of soul, this tranquil spirit. To achieve it lie need guidance and help, and therefore we turn to our Church. Here, one sets problems in order, sees difficulties in perspective and consults with one's Creator. Peace of heart is a two-way street--our -way to God, and His way to Us. Copt/right 1969 Keisler Advertising Service, Inc , .Slrajfcurp, Va.
