Christian Scientist Claims Concepts Being Challenged By CAROL LOWERY Staff Writer Mrs. Lenore Hanks, Portland member of the Board of Christian Science lecturers in Boston, spoke to the public on the “Myth ology of Mind” last night in the SU. She emphasized that this is an age of “exceptionally vigorous challenge to all concepts . . . including theology.” Perhaps a most up-to-date example would be the fact that no heaven and hell were discovered by either of the Gemini rockets. Theologists, said Mrs. Hanks, are demanding that Christianty be made fully relevant to the world today. She offered this statement by Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the Christian Science faith, as a starting point in her discussion.

SAFE AS COFFEE “Matter is neither a thins* nor a person, but merely the objective supposition of spirits opposite," Mrs. Eddy’s contemporaries scolT ed her, but Mrs. Hanks suggests that the atomic age should be more agreeable to this new ap proach to scientific investigation. God is All “Matter has no real existence at all. God’s spirit is all.” Matter is the myth that produces all sin, disease, and trouble. The science of health is that science of ever coming the fatal misconceptions about the nature of matter. Mrs. Eddy was also convinced through spiritual healing in her childhood and later life that “there is no life, truth, and no intelligence in matter.” Elaborat ing on this, Mrs. Hanks explained that we possess a spiritual in dividuality: our essence is not conceived and sustained by mat ter, but by God. Matter Not Destroyed Matter is a way of seeing things, but “life and intelligence are wholly spiritual ... we don't destroy matter, we prove its noth ingness. (It follows that) disease is mistaken thinking that takes the form of wrong doing.” To the degree that we follow Christ, said Mrs. Hanks, we can use His power. Through his spirit ual convictions Christ could bring about miraculous cures, anil walk through walls anil people as if they didn’t exist—and they don’t in the physical sense, Mrs. Hanks insists. "Matter is a false conception of mistaken thinking The spiritual is real and eternal; the material is unreal and temporal.” She concluded by summarizing that “man is not material; he is spiritual.” Junior Weekend Committee Sign-up The Junior Class is now ac cepting petitions for positions on Junior Weekend commit tees.

College graduates, new to Ford Motor Company, often comment on the comparative youth of many of our top executives. The example of these men in key positions is evidence that being young is no handicap at Ford to those who possess ability and ambition. In fact, new employes can ex|x.*ct challenging assignments while still participating in our College Graduate Program. This means an opportunity to demonstrate special skills and initiative while still learning the practical, day-to day aspects of the business. Consider the exjjeri ence of Jim Weston, who has been with Ford Motor Company for three years. Jim came to Ford in February, 1963. His first assignment was in marketing analysis where his principal job was evaluating present and potential dealer locations. For a time, he also gained experience in the actual pur chasing of dealer locations. Later, an assignment forecasting sales and market potential with Ford Division’s Truck Sales Programming Depart ment gave him the background he needed to qualify for his present position. His job today? Only three years out of college, Jim is now a senior financial analyst in Ford Division’s Business Management Department. Jim Weston’s experience is not unusual. At Ford Motor Company, your twenties can be challenging and rewarding years. Like to learn more about it? Talk to our representative when he visits your campus.
