White Plains, N. Y. (First Church).—Lecturer introduced by Mrs. Eva F. Hovey, who said in part:—

Every one here in one way or another is interested in the subject of peace. We all would like to see some oil of understanding poured upon the troubled waters of unrest so that the world would settle down to a normal, healthful activity, the outcome of which would be rest and prosperity for one and all. Webster gives, as one meaning for peace, "Harmony between persons or nations." It will be admitted that the latter part of the definition is the natural result of the first part.

When Job was in great distress, mentally and physically, his friend advised, "Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace." And all through the Scriptures runs the same thread,—knowledge of God brings peace. And it is just here that the Christian Scientist has cause to be grateful for the practical, workable knowledge of God, which comes to every sincere student.
