He was introduced by Mr*. Ancil T. Brown. His lec-
ture, in part, follows:
Today many thinking people are beginning to see *s they have not seen before, that the healing work of the early church is yet possible, although this healing work rebukes the generally accepted supremacy of material law. They perceive that there is such a thing as spiritual law. a law apart from physics; thst this divine la# Is and should be sovereign over so-called physical law; that It has dominion over what is termed matter; »nd all this in spite of the bias of materialistic thought which declares that any existence apart from the material can not be conceived, ft Is encouraging that Christian peoples are beginning to awake out of their sleep and to assert their right to the freedom and harmony

“According to the scriptural accounts, the healing wrougoi »-> . ..t Mae ter and If la disciples, was accomplished through mental or spiritual means alone, that Is through some action of thought. Christian Mclence healing Is brought about In the same way. In both, the healing principle and law are mental, and knowing this, we are led to esamine Into the nature of mind and mind action,

SAYS DEATH IS UNREAL Proves That the Dead Still live
Remarkable evidence that there is no death; there are no dead, is offered by Lloyd Kenyon Jones, Room 982-N, 538 S. dark St„ Chicago, in his book entitled “God’s World,” in which he shows how, through God’s own law, the spirits of those who have passed through the portals of Death, can and do communicate with those on earth. One should be cheered by the thought that loved ones have not been transmuted into cold, unemotional individualities by death, for God’s door is always open between earth life and eternal life, where we all will he united forever. In his illustrated booklet, “Communication,” he presents his view of life, here and beyond the grave, which will enable you to understand “God’s World” and show you how to obtain happiness and a fuller understanding of life here and in the hereafter. Simply send your name to the author at the above ad-

INTEREST IN BORAH PLAN. Japanese Papers as a Whole Approve Mara* Asrreeatest. ffiy the Asaseiatsd Press! TOKIO. December 20.—The Japanese press is manifesting great interest In the proposal of Senator Borah, of Idaho, for a tripartite naval agreement under which the United i States, Great Britain and Japan would pledge themaelves to limitation of naval armaments. In general the newspapers favor the idea, but regard Japan’s present program as a legitimate one. In expressing strong approval of the Borah proposal the Mainichl

Japan’s eight battleship and eight battle cruiser porgram Is not a menace to people, one newspaper Insists. The Nichi Xichl Shimbun says Japan's geographical ami international position does not permit her to indulge in disarmament. If t!»e United States reduces her armaments the others will follow’, says the journal. Japaa’a Papa la t tea 77,005.000.

This is a question of great practical interest in connection with the pending application for an increase in the gas rate in Indianapolis.
standing bonds. What is left is usually considered profits which
may be distributed to stockholders.
The peculiar thing about this Company is that only a limited . amount can be distributed to the stockholders. At the present time the dividends of the Company are strictly limited to 8.267e.
This requires annually $200,000.
Stockholders are not guaranteed any returns whatever. They have risked their money and expect to take their chances. Of course, they would not put in any more money if the dividends should* cease and, of course, the Directors will declare this limited dividend so long as the Company has a balance sufficient for the purpose; but the stockholders have no security and must trust
to tne success of the business.
Now suppose the Company has more than $200,000 in any year, after meeting the other charges mentioned above—what
becomes of it?
There is only one thing that can be done with it. It must go into the property to increase the facilities of the Company for rendering public service. If the net profits should be $10,000,000 in any year, only the $200,000 could be distributed among the 1
owners of the Company.
This situation might not warrant excessive gas rates, as it might not be wise to make the gas consumers of the present day pay a price that would make gas greatly cheaper in the future. But a clear understanding of this situation should enable the public to see that the Directors of the Company have no incen-
tive to seek excessive profits.
Whether the rate requested is needed or not, is a matter to * be established by a full statement of the gas situation, but the presumption is justified that only a reasonable rate is desired
by the Company.
