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).

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.

Blue River School
Cited as New Trend
Pictures and description of the
new .Blue River high school, re
cently completed on the McKenzie
river between Vida and Blue Riv
er, are featured in a new publica
tion, "Trees and Schools" issued
by the West Coast Lumbermen's
association. 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

changes were advanced. First,
wood construction was proven to
be most secure against earth
quakes and was recommended to
public school builders. Second, to
assure safety for students in
emergencies demanding rapid exit
from schools, a 'campus tvoe' nf
school design was advocated. This 1
essentially means ground level
classrooms, bordering open:

The long classrooms wing of

4. Comparison of real income produced annually per t
fully employed person expressed in U. & dollars. Ava
far the decade 1925 to 1934-a typical period indudiog W
prosperity and depression.
la The U.S. ftfjutwt above look good, but by the time
our fighting men are in their forties, the average
American can be producing fust as much real in
come. He can be. buying twice as much bread and
twice a many cigarettes with an hour's wages; work
ing only half as long to earn a radio, a house, a hat, a
vacation or anything else he needs,
2a These are facts, not promises. 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

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.
