Subject Sunday: "Sacrament”.
“GOD” was the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon in all Christian Sci
ence Churches and Societies on
Sunday, July 4, 1937.
The Golden Text was from Jude
1:25. “To the only wise God our
Saviour, be glory and majesty, do
minion and power, both now and
ever.”
Among the citations which com
prised the Lesson-Sermon was the
following from the Bible: “Unto
thee, O God, do we give thanks, un
to thee do we give thanks: for
that thy “name is near thy won
drous works declare.” (Psalms
75:1)
The Lesson-Sermon also includ
ed the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, “Sci
ence & Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.
“This Science teaches man that
God is the only Life, and that this
Life is Truth and Love; that God
is to be understood, adored, and
demonstrated; that divine Love
casts out suppositional error and
heals the sick.”

IN REMEMBRANCE
In memorial of Larry Garris.
There was once a little boy
Who now has gone away.
But whom we will all see
Some happy day.
This little boy’s name was ''Larry,”
The one who with us could not
tarry;
But do not sigh.
For the little one is living
With his Master on high.
Now Larry was a sweet little boy.
And to his mother a great joy—
To know him was to love him,
For he had an appealing way
And for him we are sad this day.
[ Now he was only three,
And was full of glee;
But today he lies ever so still,
And to us his lips are sealed;
But somewhere in a beautiful, land,
This little boy is happy again.
And to his loved ones, who are in
sorrow
Rejoice, for you will see him on
that happy day,
When we all meet on that land far
away.
By Mabel Williams.
