WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1920 on the west sidé of Maple. Both wheels of the Hudson completely collapsed, the rear end of car swung around west and nofth and the Hud- son rolled over two or three times, throwing out is passengers and stopping forty to fifty feet north of the point of collision, lying east and west, with its rear end against the west parkway on Maple avenue. Loose Gravel Fatal When the driver of the Ford car _ saw the Hudson, he jammed on his foot brake, locking his wheels, but because of the loose coat of new gravel on Oak street, the locked wheels slid. The skid marks made by the locked wheels began on Oak street about fifteen feet east of the east sidewalk crossing. At the same time he turned north on Maple and then, seeing that he could not turn short enough to avoid the Hudson, he mad: a quick turn towa:sd the south tc pass behind the Hudscn., but, instead struck the Hudson as stat- ed, whereupon the Ford capsized and came to rest just clear of the north- west curb and facing southeast. The testimony of the three women who were eye witnesses, two being on the lawn at the northwest corner of Oak and Maple streets within fifty feet of the collision, and the third on the north side of Oak street when the Ford passed her corroborates these facts. There was some suggestion that the Ford may have been going perhaps at a twenty-five mile speed. This may have been due to the seemingly greater speed of a Ford «car , or it may have been speeded up to take the Oak street hill. It is clear that the driver intended to turn north on Maple avenue that he was unable to do so without swing ing to the west side of Maple avenue, and this in turn was apparently due to the loose gravel on Oak street which prevented him from slowing down enough tod make the turn. Tt was one of those emergencies which call for lightning-like thought and where 'a fraction of a second means the difference between safety and collision. Safe Speed Rate From my careful personal study of the matter, I am satisfied that one of the eye witnesses was absolutely cor- rect when she testified that neither car was going at an unreasonable speed and yet a collision was inevit- able. There is much sorrow in the homes of all the boys. The young men who drove the cars are deeply oppressed by the death of John Patton. I have written this account in the hope that I have made it clear that neither of the drivers were blamable and that unavoidable sorrow may not be in- creased by repetition of wholly un- founded reports of carelessness or speeding. If the gravel had held the Ford back for a fraction of a second longer there would have been no collision. Otto R. Barnett. Mr. and Mrs. George F.

S. B. Dr. Walton Hubbard of Los Angel- es, Calif, member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scien- tist in Boston, Mas, delivered a lecture on Christian Science, Satur- day evening, October 2nd, 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. Eloise H. Schmidt. A synopsis of the evening's lecture follows : The explanation of God's law and its availability to all mankind was taught and demonstrated by Jesus the Christ, but for many centuries it has been maintained that the major portion of the reward for Christian living is to come at some future time. The wisdom of this world has failed not only to heal from discord and sin but to heal from disease, and it will continue to fail in its treatment of disease until it is recognized that sickness is sick thought expressed on the body, and that sick thought is cast out through spiritual under- standing. When human thought is filled with fear and belief in disease, no human statement to the contrary will suffice, and the thought which heals must be so evidently the di- vine idea, that it comes to human consciousness as the very voice of God to destroy and dispel the error. Such a system.is Christian Science and it only asks to be known by its fruits. The revelation came to Mrs. Ed- 'of thought which she possessed made dy because the particular qualities it inevitable. She investigated -every material system of healing and fin- ally decided that all causation must be mental, yet it required twenty years of effort before she really understood that all causation was Mind, God, and a number of years more before it had unfolded with sufficient clarity to be given to the world. The slightest amount of spiritual understanding put into practice brings forth abundant results, and faith as a grain of mustard seed is sufficient to remove mountains of, error. The reasoning of Christian Science brings divine Love close to human explerience. The recognition that God is Mind and that man is His perfect idea is the basis for Chris- tian Science healing. When we measure our thoughts by this divine standard and undertake as far as possible to entertain only that thought which we know to be of God, the thought which has made us sick or unhappy is eliminated. One after another of the material beliefs which have bound us are an- nulled through the application of spiritual law, and we are learning that food, or water, or cold, or heat, or dampness, or dust, or contact with our brother man, never had any power to harm us, for the divine idea comes in contact with nothing but that which is harmonious and health- ful and manifests only the goodness of God. The divine Principle corrects inharmonious and unsuccessful busi- ness conditions, and sorrow and dis- appointment are removed by the law of Love. Each inharmonious condition which is overcome through spiritual under- standing increases one's conscious- ness of joy and harmony. Every ef- fort towards spirituality and away from that which is material brings a rich reward. "He that overcom- eth shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son."
