Christian Science "Mind" was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on. Sunday, Feb. 20. The Golden Text was, "Behold, God is mighty, and despiscth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom" (Job 36:5). Among the citations which icomprised the Lesson - Sermon was the following from the Bible: "Who hath directed . the Spirit of the Lord, or being his counsel lor hath taught him? With whom took he counsel, and who in structed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding?" (Isaiiih 40:13,14). The Lesson-Sermon, also In cluded the following correlative passages from the Christion Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scrip tures" by Mary Bnker Eddy: "Mind Is God. The exterminator of error is the great truth that God, good, Is the only Mind, and that the supposititious opposite of Infinite Mind called devil or evil is not Mind, is not Truth, but error, without intelligence or real ity" (p. 49).

HUGH PRUETT Astronomer, General Extension University of Oregon In flights of fancy we some times wing our way far out be yond our familiar earth to. the enchanting landscapes of those other shining worlds of our far flung solar system. But in such reveries we seldom consider the difficulties there awaiting us, even should we sometime perfect space ships capable of spanning the vast interplanetary void. The. recent discovery of an atmosphere of methane and ammonia surround ing Titan, Saturn's largest moon, inspires short review of plane tary atmospheres as revealed by the spectroscope. We may then estimate the desirability of resi dence on these "distant shores." Mercury apparently has very j little gaseous covering, although dust storm's and faint clouds have been suspected at times. On the side constantly facing the sun it Is so Intensely hot that lead would melt; in the eternal night of the opposite side, bitterly cold. Mer curian conditions seem to fit per fectly the "fierce heat and ice" of Dante's Inferno. Venus has a dense atmosphere which supports a constant cloud covering. Water vapor and oxygen have not been found, but they may exist under the clouds or abovs them in amounts too small to be detected. But carbon dioxide is abundant. Wildt reasons that chemically the clouds are com posed of formaldehyde, that pung ent-smelling bacterial antiseptic. How purifying a rain from Venu sian clouds eradicating both bac teria and venturesome space-tourists! Mars seems to have an at mosphere, but as thin at the sur face as ours 11 miles above the earth. I's depth is at least 60 miles and lt is usually clear. The white polar caps are apparently real snow. Occasional clouds, likely both dust and water particles, are seen. Noon temperatures at the equator are, pleasant, but at night freezing occurs everywhere. Wa ter vapor and oxygen, if present, exist in small amonts. The giant Jupiter has a dense gaseous envelope, at least 8000 miles thick out to the visible sur face of the ever-present cloud covering. Methane (marsh gas) and ammonia are the most de tectable atmospheric constituents. But it seems probable that hydro gen gas is more abundant than all the others. The clouds likely are composed ot crystals of frozen ammonia. Saturn's gaseous covering re veals more methane and less am monia than Jupiter's. The lower temperature bar. undoubtedly re sulted in the freezing out of more ammonia into clouds. Uronu3 and Neptune, still far ther from the r.un, show only a irate ui .jiini'biJneiii: uimiiuiua uui a great obundnnce of methane. ' This gus abporbs as much of the red and yellow from the light , leaving these planets that to us they have a distinctly green color. This is observable even ii very small telescopes, Pluto's at mospheric conditions are unknown. Our information therefore strongly suggests that those ot us who desire comfort stay at home save in flight of fancy.

The school building, designed throughout in wood by Graham B. Smith, Eugene archi tect, is cited as an example at the transition in school design during recent years. The "inspiring trend of modern engineering in timber products," said the article published, appear ing in public school construction during the pre-war decade, will be revived in post-war building. "This transition began in Cali fornia some ten years ago, when school architects and engineers tackled the problem of providing school construction resistant to HEX CAFE 92 W. 8th Ave. '(Next to State Theater) SERVING Special Breakfast - 30( Compltte Lunchai 45 C "i ... - . -gnd The Best Dinners In Town!

Since 1900 our production per man-hour has been increasing at the rate of 2 a year-far faster than any other nation's in the world. In the last 44 years we have tripled the mount of goods each gainfully employed person can produce-tVif our standard of living. 3a So If we uit keep our present rate of progrtfs, we can double it again in 25 to 30 years. But we've got to maintain our Free Competitive Enterprise Sys tem to do it. For that rystem is based on two funda mental principles: PROFIT and COMPETITION. And nhtntvrr a nation has tampered lot much teitk eitlur principle Us itatdard iuvv hat mffata 4a Seme have practically eliminated competition by allowing private monopolies of land and industry. Others have eliminated both profit and competition by government ownership. But in either case, the aver age man has taken the rap. Our system isnt perfect yet, but let's be sure that any "improvements" we consider don't hamstring the two principles that have snade us great.
