Vancouver, Wash. (First Church).—John Randall Dunn, lecturer; introduced by Mrs. Elizabeth Gillott, who said in part:—

We are told in the Scriptures that Jesus of Nazareth healed all manner of disease without using material remedies. For ages, owing to a misconception of God, his work has been regarded by many as supernatural, the result of a special dispensation of God. Christian Science, however, explains the healing power exercised by the Master as divinely natural, based upon his knowledge of God and his understanding of spiritual law, making it perfectly clear that this knowledge is here and now available to all.

Christian Science, through its Discoverer and Founder, Mary Baker Eddy, has thus restored to the world the wonderful Science Jesus so successfully taught and practiced. On page 150 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," Mrs. Eddy writes: "To-day the healing power of Truth is widely demonstrated as an immanent, eternal Science, instead of a phenomenal exhibition. Its appearing is the coming anew of the gospel of 'on earth peace, goodwill toward men.'" In answer to the question, Can this be true? the ever increasing interest in its teachings is sufficient confirmation that it does meet the great need of humanity, healing not only sickness but poverty, sorrow, and sin.
