CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH "Man" will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, Sep- tember 7. The Golden Text is from I John 3:1, "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God." The Lesson-Sermon comprises quotations from the Bible and from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. One of the Bible citations reads: "All scripture is given by inspira- tion of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be per- fect, throughly furnished unto all good works" (II Tim. 3:16, 17). Among the selections from the Christian Science textbook is the following: "The Science of being reveals man as perfect, even as the Father is perfect, because the Soul, or Mind, of the spiritual man is God, the divine Principle of all being, and because this real man is gov- erned by Soul instead of sense, by the law of Spirit, not by the so- called laws of matter" (p. 302). 311 First Avenue North Linn Grove .Mrs. I':(hvin Harris Miss Fdna Moynihan was elect- he I HAVE REUNION AT ed i)resident of t l,inn County Teachers As~mci ~lion at a mec~tin~ [WILL CLARK HOME he!d in Cedar Rapids last Saturday.
