BoiL.r Addition or Sell Schoolhouse.
Agitation for more room at the "Will
lams-Avenue Schoolhouse, In Upper Al-
fclna, goes on. However, there Is differ
ence of opinion whether a four-room ad
dition should be built on the south side
of the present structure, or whether the
present ground and building should be
disposed of and ground secured in a better
place and a 22-room schoolhouse erected.
The present schoolhouse, with the port
able buildings, has 17 room?, but these
are crowded with 750 pupils. It was sug
gested by the people tributary to the
"W llllaxns-avenue building that a four
room addition be built on the south side
of the ground. Willlamp-Avenue School
house stands on the corner of Williams
avenue and Russell street. In the center
of the business section of Alblna, where
street-cars are constantly passing, and
the question is raised whether it would
not be better to sell the property and put
a new and modern building several blocks
away from the present location, removed
from the turmoil of business and the noise
of passing street-cars. The present
school ground is valuable and could be
disposed of to good advantage.
Indorsed Grange Headquarters. At
the meeting of Evening Star Grange No.
27, Patrons of Husbandrj, held in the hall
on the Section Line road Saturday, the
matter of having Grange headquarters
on the Lewis and Clark Fair grounds was
heartily Indorsed. This matter will come
before the State Grange, which is to meet
in Forest Grove next month. The lec
ture hour was taken up with a pro
gramme, and a general discussion of the
beat methods of making butter ensued led
by A. J. Paulsen. A large class was given
the first and second degrees. One of the
pleasing events of the day -was the pre
sentation to Jud John F. Caples of a
handsome present from each lady in the
Grange as some token of appreciation for
Ills many kindly speeches and compli
ments in their behalf. He carried his
presents home in a basket.
Sewer and Ditch-Digger. F. M. Ire
land, of Alblna, has completed and pat
ented a steamer sewer and ditch-digger,
which is on exhibition on a vacant tract
on Knott street and "Williams avenue.
The machine resembles a dredger. There
Is a powerful engine and a long beam, or
arm, at the end of which Is a scoop. The
ditch is excavated by dredging out the
dirt. The inventor claims that a trench
yfor a sewer can be cut at any reasonable
distance with his machine, and can do the
work of more than a dozen men. Street
and sewer contractors who have watched
the machine in operation where it stands
seem to think that it will prove prac
ticable. Will Soon Occupt New Church. At
the services of the Central Baptist
Church, in Woodmen of the World Hall,
"East Sixth street, yesterday. Rev. Will
iam E. Randall, the pastor, announced
the first services in the new church, being
built on East Ankeny and Twentieth
streets, would be held the last Sunday in
this month. If the pews are not then in
place temporary provision will be made so
the initial meeting may be held at that
time. It will be made the occasion of a
large accession to the membership. Con
tractors are crowding the work on church
and manse, which are being put up at the
same time on the same corner.
Boys Commit Higiiwat Robbert. Two
boys of about 17 years of age tiptoed up
behind Jdiss ivirker, 608 Marquam build'
ing, as she was "walking up Alder street
about 8 o'clock last evening, and grabbed
a purse which contained several dollars
In change. So quietly did the youthful
robbers creep up on Miss Kirker that she
did not know there was anybody near
iter, the llrst intimation being the jerk
ing of the purse from her hand. The only
description Miss Kirker could give was
that they wore messenger boy caps. The
robbery occurred near Twelfth street.

TELLS HOW THE CITY IS BUILT
Mayor Williams Speaks in Favor of
Civic Improvement. (
Incidentally Mayor Williams in his
speech before the. Woodlawn Push Club
a few evenings ago told how to build
up Portland. The Mayor had been in
vited out to Woodlawn, with City At
torney L. A. McNary, to talk about the
gravel pits.' Outside of what he said
about the gravel pits, which, he de
clared, are a nuisance to that part of
the city, the Mayor gave some of his
experiences and Impressions concern
ing the building up of the city. He
said in part:
"1 notice that you have named your
organization the Woodlawn Push Club.
That is an excellent name, for the word
push means a great deal to a commu
nity, and to the entire city. The Bible
says that God helps the man who helps
himself, and the same thing will apply
to communities and to the city. To
work successfully along this line, how
ever, the community must be united,
all must push and pull ' together, to
accompnsn anything, or bring about a
desired Improvement of any kind. A
community split up can do nothing to
better its condition in any direction.
What is true of the suburbs, or com
munities, is true of the whole City of
Portland, which we are all trying to
build up and make beautiful: I have
found? that there is determined opposi
tion to every kind of improvement that
can be suggested or proposed, how
ever much it may be needed, and how
ever shortsighted may be the policy of
opposition. Many people owning prop
erty fail to see, or understand, that

straigntway the owners realize many
times more on their investment than
they could hope to realize had thv nnt

E. A. Kimball Lectures
at the Marquam.
ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Hundreds Turned Away Fron
the Theatre.
GOV. CHAMBERLAIN THERE
Executive Introduces Lecturer to Au
dience as Business Man With Ex
perience In the Doctrine of
Which He Speaks.
The Christian Science lecture given by
Edward A. Kimball. C. S. D.. at the
Marquam Grand Theater last night under
tne auspices of the First and Second
Churches of Christ, Scientist, of Portland,
attracted an audience which completely
filled the theater and made it necessary
to turn away several hundred people.
The lecture given last night is what
might be termed an annual event with
these churches. The occasion finds Its
purpose, not in an endeavor to convert,
but In an effort to enlighten the public as
to the tenets of this faith and to remove
and correct any misapprehension or mis
understanding that may arise and exist
In the minds of those unfamiliar with the
doctrines taught.
The audience was one of the most rep
resentative to bo gathered together In
Portland, and while many might have
been present through curiosity, the think
er and the student rubbed elbows.
Mr. Kimball, who Is a business man
and who tells what he has to say In a
business way. commanded the full at
tention of his hearers throughout his
hour and 50 minutes talk. He was In
troduced by Governor George EL Cham
berlain, who said:
"I suppose it may safely be said that
no religion or system of religion can be
fully appreciated unless it is thoroughly
understood, and I think it may also be
said that every religion or system of
religion has its critics and opponents, and?
this is true of the Christian Scientist re
ligion. It has had Its opponents ever
since its birth and they have been bitter
ties, too. Notwithstanding this fact,
however, it has survived and grown
steadily so that-we cannot today but ad
mire and respect It, I am told that
within the past 20 or 25 years Its number
of churches has grown from 20 to 00 or
000 in the United States.
"We are here tonight to learn of it,
and In our speaker we have a worthy
teacher. One drawback to be found In
such a lecture as that to be given to
night, however. Is that all points cannot
be touched upon and we can only ex
pect tonight to receive knowledge upon a
few features and learn more of the other
at some other time.
"The man who will address us tonight
Is a plain business man, but I am sure
that his knowledge and experience has
been such as to qualify him for the task
of teaching. I take pleasure In intro
ducing Mr. Edward A. Kimball."
Mr. Kimball said in part:
Mr. Kimball said In part: "In order that
you may most readily appreciate the Im
port of this address, you are asked to
contemplate "for a moment the scene upon
which Christian Science has made its en
trance. "The history of the human race may bo
classified as a tragedy. If it were to be
epitomized, then one long monotone of
HAS
.......... t
protest against misery, one pitiful appeal
to God for relief, and one final moan of
acieat would tell the story. There are t
few flowers, a little sunshine. DerhaDS
but beyond the foreground Is the vista at
tne end of which Is the grave and mys
tery- i
"The people ofeaVth, unreconciled to
wnat seems to be an Intolerable fate, hav
turned in every conceivable direction in
their effort for deliverance from evil, and
they have failed, thus far, to find the
way. 1 There are still the same tearsi
broken hearts, beds of pain, the same
havoc of outrageous fortune. Men con
tinue to live, sicken and die according to
a philosophy of doom which declares there
is no salvation this side of the grave, no
way out of hell on earth but to die out.
"To this same stricken people, and in
this very age, comes Christian Science to
declare that they can get out, naturally
lawfully, scientifically; it comes as a
message of hope and promise to a race
which Is in supreme need.
The Mind Which Was In Christ.
"The science of mind declares that to
the extent that man is governed by the
divine Mind, he will manifest perfection
health, life, welfare, prosperity the am
plcness and completeness of harmonious
existence. It was this Mind which was
also in Christ; which canceled temptation
ana sin, healed the sick, raised the dead
raised Jesus from the dead and overcame
the world, the flesh, and the devil.' 'To
be carnally minded is death.' Sin and dls
ease are the offspring of this carnal mind
they are no part of the nature or of the
procurement of the divine Mind.
"God Is good, in nature, design, power,
action, substance and operation. All that
He has- made and done is good. His laws
are good, and He has already done even'
thing that is essential to the supreme
welfare of man.
rConversely we repudiate the effort to
solve the mystery of evil by assuming
that any part of it has been Instituted by
God, or that He needs to Involve himself
in or with evil in any way or for any pur
pose, or that He does so involve Himself.
"God is not only Life, but has ordained
life and Is the law of life and health for
man. The theology of Christian Science
Is consistently parallel throughout with
this declaration. It also declares that God
has created man that he might have
being, and not for the purpose of in
flicting upon him Inveterate agony and
disease.
"We repudiate all assumption that His
law is the law of sin and death. Sickness
is contrary to God, and God Is contrary
to IL God Is the natural healer of the
sick, and is able, willing and ever ready
to save mortals from the evils Imposed
upon them by an utterly perverted sense
of existence.
"The supposition that God has induced
the pangs and horrors of disease and.
death engenders a fear of Him a ftar
and alarm concerning the author and the
law and the destiny of human life; a
fear concerning the very foundations of
existence. We Christian Scientists are no
longer afraid of God or of His Heaven
which we are learning Is within us to the
extent that we are governed by the Mind
which was in Christ.
Evil Not of God.
"We disagree with others concerning
the nature of evil. Mrs. Eddy knows full
well that 'Whatsoever a man soweth, that
ehall he also reap,' and that sin inevitably
Imposes suffering on'its vlctlni; neverthe
less, she declares that sin, sickness and
kindred evils are unreal, meaning thereby
that they belong in the realm of the tem
poral, illegitimate, abnormal. They are
the paraphernalia of mortal belief or the
carnal mind unlawful, unrighteous and
unnecessary monstrosities of unnatural
existence.
"The world generally believes that evil
is an enduring entity having a basis in
truth; that it is as actual and substantial
as good, or God, and that its Indestructi
ble immortality will be manifested in an
eternal hell and devil. If this were true.
and evil as an entltv were coneeouentlv
Indestructible, then the entreaty of Jesus"
to resist and overcome It must needs have
been a mockery. But. on the contrary.
the career of Jesus Is in demonstration of
the power of something to abolish evil. ia
pretense and presence. Is it a thinkable
proposition that our Master sought to
equip a mortal man to destroy something
that God has made, and is therefore a
part of infinity? Do Christ and Christian
ity aek of you something that cannot be
done?
"When Jesus healed the pick did he de
stroy the work of God or devil? Was It
the mission of Jesus to destroy the work
of God? If sickness is the work of the
devil, then i God for or against it? If
His laws are against and contrary to It,
are His laws for or against It? If His
laws are against It. are they available to
man? Has God created a man who Is
without possible recourse to Hie law and
power? Jf He has, then why pray for an
Impossibility?
Complete Salvation Through Christ,
"We believe that Christ Jesus was the
representative of God to humanity: that
he was the voice of wisdom and IntellkJ.
gence, and that He knew more about God,
man and the universe than all other peo
pie combined. We believe He came to do
the will of God and to fulfill law. What
God. and what law? The God that Ib good
and whose law Is the law of life, health.
harmony and holiness. We believe He
came 'to seek and to save that which was
lost,' and that He found that Jwhlch was
lost,' when he found the sinner and the
sick man. We believe that He came to
'destroy the works of the devil, and that
He wa 'about His Father's business'
while he was doing it. Unless He was de
stroying the works of the devil when He
healed the sick, there must have been a
time when He was not In the fulfillment
of his mission, for He gave much atten
tion to the cure of diseases, andHimself
declared that such healing was a part of
His 'works.' We believe this healing was
natural and lawful; that all His works
were done In exquisite accord with the
eternal law of a changeless God. We be-
.Heve that the teaching of Christian Sci
ence through Mrs. Eddy removes the mln
Is-try of Jesus from the realm of mystery
and brings It within the range of law,
order and a scientific modus operandi. We
believe that God and His Christ aro too
wise to be unlawful or to procure or In
duce or make use of that which Is in con
travention of law. We believe that the
unlimited divine volition does not need to
upset or undo any natural law in order
to do good. '
"We believe that the Christ ministry Is
an object-lesson In demonstration of the
imminent, ever-present and ever-available
power of spirit God, to destroy evil. We
believe that Jksus manifested the suprem
acy of spiritual law, which Is the law of
life, and its power over the fictitious law
of eln and death, t
The Key to the Scriptures.
"Mrs. Eddy answers all these questions
and hundreds of others In her text-book,
'Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures."' and thereby reconciles reason
to God and dispels the mystery which has
obscured the science of life.
"People throughout all the Christian
centuries have differed concerning the
meaning of the Bible, Indeed. In behalf
of the quarrel about the Bible and of
the conflict of creeds millions have
gone down to violent death. Our ten
ets declare. 'We take the inspired word
.of the Bible as our sufficient guide to
eternal life.' Like many others, we
believe that the Bible has not been
dictated word for word by God. We
believe with Paul that the things of
God and the real substance of the Bible
must be spiritually discerned.
"Most people have commentaries, or
helps to the study of the Bible. We
have a commentary, or key. in our text
book. With historic and characteristic
Instinct the people whose love is for
their own alone do not like ours, and
even say it is dangerous. I will not
linger long to discuss the merits of this
book now. Since studying the Bible in
its light we have no desire to kill any
one or quarrel with, any one about re
ligion. We have learned to love the
right of every man-to strive for heaven
according to his own Inspiration. We
are laujcht that it is abominable in, ti.ej
sight of God and a decent manhood
to denounce, persecute, or molest a man
who does not agree with our religious
propaganda.
"This book encourages us to live ac
cording to the commandments and the
sermon on the mount, and in obedience
to the highest conceivable moral stand
ard. It teaches us to be loving, char
itable, merciful, meek and pure, and as
followers of Christ Jesus to obey every
mandate of 'God and Christ, even to the
extent of forsaking sin, -preaching the
gospel and healing the sick.
Cause of Disease Little KnovVn.
"The medical profession have practi
cally united in the admission that 'con
cerning the essence or primary cause of
disease little is known; indeed, nothing
at all.' It is generally assumed, how
ever, that matter alone is causation.
There is an exception to the rulo in the
case of homeopathy, which designates
certain abnormal and unrighteous
mental conditions sin, etc as causa
tive, and affirms that anger arrests di
gestion; that grief, sorrow, etc.. Impair
or degrade the nhvslpni fnnHitinn Ac
cording to Christian Science the enigma
of the ages, namely, What Is the pri
mary cause of disease? can be solved
only by entering the mental realm.
"Did you ever see a person turn pale
because of fear? Have you known a
person to turn red because of anger?
Have you ever heard one that has died
because of fright? -Do you know that
the thing which happens is this: that
such mental activities operate as causa
tion, affect the nervous and circulatory
systems and induce congestion the
evidence of physical impairment or de
generacy? "It must be. surely, that you know
that mental conditions affect the body,
and because you know this and should
act accordingly. I ask if there is any
scientific relationship between grief or
Jealousy as a cause and a mud bath as
a cure. If you had a patient whose In
corrigible hatred " had finallv caused
liver trouble and the medical books
prescribed a mustard plaster, would
you apply the plaster to the liver,
which is innooent of offense, or to the
hatred, which is the sole cause?
"If the cause Is to be cured at all
ought not the remedy to reach the
cause and cancel it? Do you think that
a plaster will do it? If not, then con
sider the mind which was in Christ
and which transforms man by means of
righteousness. Consider tha, curative
system of Christ Jesus, which clearly
recognized sin as a cause of 'sickness
and administered the emollient of holi
ness which divine love has prepared In
the laboratory of eternal life.
The Fictitous Nature of Fear.
- "In consequence of Ignorance and su
perstition tne universal mortal man is
afraid of the very foundation of his
being. He is afraid of God and heaven,
he Is afraid of devil and hell; afraid of
his own body, of everything he does
and has. and of all' that exists on
earth. This universal fear constitutes
a-universal and primary cause of dis
ease, and the conclusions can not be
resisted that the curative system which
falls to recognize it can not intelligent
ly abolish Its effects.
"There are two books in the world
which entreat humanity to know that
fear Is Illegitimate and can be 'cast
out.' These books are the Bible and
'Science and Health.' The latter, with
much elaboration, explains the fabulous
nature of fear and "gives the reason
and rule for Its elimination.
"Will not those of you who are Chris
tians consider as to whether or not it
would have been a mockery for the
Savior of the world compassionately to
Implore man to resist fear as if It real
ly has a scientific. Inherent right to
Infest humanity, and, therefore, Irre
sistible? "The matter physician declares that
the proper therapeutic or curative
agency Is to be found in matter or in
the use of material means.

"After this brief and fra cmcnlarv nl-

of a palpable salvation for a man who

Mrs. Eddy and Noble Womanhood.
"For a third of a centurv Mrs
has been pleading with mankind for the
recognition of Its rlirht to Hf honitti
and holiness accordintr to th tl-ih nf

natural healer of the sick, and that dis

angry sea. are thankful that In spite of
every contention against her she has
been faithful to her trust."
