"Mind" was the subject of the les- son-sermon in all churches of Christ, Scientist, Sunday, February 20. The golden text was from James 1:5, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." Among the citations which comprised the lesson-sermon was the following from the Bible: "O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowl- edge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen." (Ro- mans 11:33, 34, 36). The lesson-sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "The world would col- lapse without Mind, without intelli- gence which holds the winds in its grasp. Neither philosophy nor skepti- cism can hinder the march of Science which reveals the supremacy of Mind" (p. 209). Mrs. Edwin Bluthart, 415 Essex road, Kenilworth is entertaining a few of her friends at a bridge luncheon today.

IL. Nygaard, an illustrated lecture on sculpturing was given Wed- nesday afternoon, February 16, by Emory P. Seidel, noted Chicago artist. Practically every phase of sculptur- ing was dealt with, Mr. Seidel model- ing meanwhile an image of Virginia Johnson, one of the Kenilworth pupils. As he completed his work on the clay model, he continued his talk by ex- plaining how the forms for casts are made and demonstrated this phase of the work by covering the image with plaster of paris. This plaster covering is carefully removed from the original model, he explained, and into the hol- low mould thus formed, is poured the material from which the statue or bust is to be made. Mr. Seidel also ex- plained the use of the various tools and the technique involved in marble modeling. Mr. Seidel is one of the most noted of contemporary sculptors, dealing with child or older subjects with equal ability, it is said. Two of the best known of his works, "Dancing Girl and "Baby's First Pose," were among those shown at Wednesday's exhibit. North Shore Men Guests at Luncheon for Nobleman The Earl of Dunmore, V.
