T3LT40-1te GIVES LECTURE ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE Editor's note: Following is an excerpt from a lecture on Christian Science de- livered at the Winnetka Masonic temple Sunday afternoon, June 26, under aus- pices of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Winnetka. SALEM ANDREW HART, C. S. (Member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass.) When the seventy disciples, whom Jesus had sent forth on a mission of healing, returned with rejoicing, the Bible tells us that he said to them: "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you" (Luke 10:19). This promise or as- surance, of spiritual power to heal is beautifully set forth in the following correlative passage on page 55 of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scrip- tures," by Mary Baker Eddy, the Dis- coverer and Founder of Christian Sci- ence: "The promises will be fulfilled. The time for the reappearing of the divine healing is throughout all time: and whosoever layeth his earthly all on the altar of divine Science, drinketh of Christ's cup now, and is endued with the spirit and power of Christian healing." Webster defines the word "promise" as that which causes, or gives ground for, hope, expectation, or assurance. Now, I feel sure that we will all agree that the promises made in the Bible are true, and were made for all time; so have we not the right to expect the fulfillment of these promises? Christian Science an- swers this question in the affirmative, and is fulfilling the promise of health and long life to the afflicted; of deliver- ance and forgiveness to the sinning: of comfort and protection to the sorrowful; of peace and plenty to those in want and woe; of wisdom and strength to the humble and obedient. It fulfills God's promise found in Isaiah: "And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known; I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them" (Isaiah 42:16). So, if there be any here tonight seeking a solution for the problem of grief and separation; if there be any who are sick or in want; if there be any who are struggling with misfortune or sin; if, perchance, there be any who for the first time have crossed the threshold of Christian Science, we have for you a joyous message of Love, of deliver- ance, of comfort, and happiness. Sense Testimony One of the basic causes of so much discord and sickness today is the general acceptance by mankind of personal sense testimony as reliable and true. We are not trusting God when we accept and rely upon the testimony of the senses as real or true, for we are then believing that matter has life, intelligence, and sensation. The five physical senses can- not be depended upon for guidance and 51 aes 1) truthful information, and I feel sure many of us have experienced striking examples of the falsity of sense evidence. Let us consider for a moment two paral- lel lines, such as the tracks of a rail- road. Sense testimony would have us believe that these two lines converge into one at a distant point. Can we accept such a statement as true? Certainly not. And why? Because we know the truth about this proposition, and no amount of argument can change it. We also know that the sun does not rise in the morning nor set in the evening. We also know that the earth is not station- ary, but revolves on its axis once every twenty-four hours. We also know that any object in the distance is not as small as mortal vision would have us believe. And so I could go on and cite many instances of the unreliability of sense testimony. There is a marked difference between understanding and belief. Sense testimony subjects us to many conflicting beliefs, while Truth only is knowable, for there is only one Truth. Mrs. Eddy states on page 203 of the Christian Science textbook, "If God were understood instead of being merely believed, this understanding would establish health." Christian Science bids us awake from this material dream of sensation in matter, from this snare and delusion which has victimized mankind, to the full realization and understanding that God is All-in-all, the only power, and that everything unlike Him is unreal and untrue. Mary Baker Eddy Mrs. Eddy states on page 107 of the Christian Science textbook, "In the year 1866, I discovered the Christ Science or divine laws of Life, Truth, and Love, and named my discovery Christian Sevi- ence. God had been graciously prepar- ing me during many years for the re- ception of this final revelation of the absolute divine Principle of scientific mental healing." This revelation came to Mrs. Eddy at a time when all seemed dark and hopeless. Lying upon a couch of pain as the result of an injury, she was placed in the hands of a physician, who despaired of her recovery and prom- ised no hope. Left alone, she opened the Bible and turned to the ninth chap- ter of Matthew, second verse, and as she read about the man sick of the palsy who was healed by Jesus, the light of spiritual Truth or the Christ-spirit dawned in her consciousness, and she arose from her couch instantly and per- fectly healed. Thoroughly convinced that her healing was the direct result of the operation of spiritual law, Mrs. Eddy continued to search the Scriptures until the Science of Christianity was fully revealed to her and she became conscious of the fact that the same law which enabled Jesus to heal the man sick of the palsy had healed her, again fulfilling the promise of the Master, "He that believeth on me, the works that I do, shall he do also" (John 14:12). Thoroughly satisfied that her discovery was in accordance with God's law, Mrs. Eddy, undismayed, set out to prove her discovery. This pure and spiritually minded woman bore the heat and burden of the day patiently and lovingly, over- came obstacles, and gave to the world the result of her search and discovery, the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." Stovepipe Comedian Hard on Silken Haberdashery When Raymond Griffith entered the Paramount studio one day there were seven men waiting in the front office to see him. No, they were not bill collectors. Just silk hat salsemen. So much has been said about how many toppers the silk-hat comedian wears out in each picture that sales- men harass him like flies around a sugar bowl. An unusual mobilization on the Paramount lot was taken to indicate that Griffith is about to start a pic- ture. WILLIAM HAINES "Slide, Kelly, Slide" plays William Haines in his first big hit since "Brown of Harvard" and "Tell It to the Marines." Haines was born in Staun- ton, Virginia, and graduated from the Staunton Military Academy. He start- ed life in New York as a bond clerk, then drifted into pictures. Among his notable roles are those in "A Little Journey," "Memory Lane" and others. Since "Brown of Harvard" he has been hailed as one of the biggest box office attractions of the screen.
