was prepared for this evnlng will be given. It will be Oratios Night.

At the lecture on Christian Science given in Hammond by Judge Clifford P. Smith the other night he spoke in part as follows: "When Christ Jesus cured the man whoso right . hand was withered, declaring that it was lawful to do so, he proved two facts; he established two propositions: First, that there Is a

Principle and . modus by which such healing is possible; second, that he possessed the understanding thereof.

The only personal factor is the understanding; and in the last analysis this is personal only in the sense of being individual, n'ot in the sense of being human. Its source and power are divine.
