Similarly, the race here in southern Oregon for lighted athletic fields apparently was won by the swiftest but Ashland high school, last to arrive, came in Tuesday night with the finest set of arcs in the area. - With more light—72 kilowatts—mounted on eight 80-foot poles set 10 feet into the earth, Ashland’s il lumination tops even Medford’s, formerly accepted as the acme of perfection.

Although The Miner generally regards all republi cans with suspicion and extreme pity, one candidate tethered his elephant outside and dropped into this democratic office for a call Tuesday. He was Walter Norblad, who seeks nomination over James W. Mott, incumbent, and several other aspir ants for representative in congress. Norblad is a young, energetic fellow of some 30 years who has established himself as a brilliant attorney and able state legis lator for two terms. His platform, like that of other GOP’s, is the usual anti-administration baloney, but that makes no differ ence. Political platforms, no matter for what party, are a lot of tripe anyway.

Hia talk follows: Premise* "Christian Science demonstrates the proposition that health, peace, harmony, and prosperity exist as the unlabored manifestations of Life, Mind, or God, which belong to all alike. These desirable and welcome states are not the result of chance nor of a supernatural impulsion. On the contrary, they are the natural fruitage, unfold- ment, or scientific translation of the divine Mind, or God, to the human understanding. Christian Science shows that the creative Mind, or God, cannot be known through any concept hav ing the bias of materiality, but only through the spiritual or true idea, which interprets aright the nature and character of God to the understanding. Prayer and Authority In response to uplifted desire, or prayer, the spiritual or true idea of God unfolds to the under standing the nature of man’s true being, and man’s unity with God; and in this transfiguration of thought the sick are healed and the erring are restored to useful lives. Christ Jesus We are told in the Bible that Jesus spoke as one having au thority. He saw the true identity, eternal individuality of all things, clearly; and this he expressed with the authority of conviction and understanding.

But with respect to the problem of supply, position, poor business, while he tells you that he desires to rely solely on the mental or spiritual means used in Christian Science to establish his harmony of supply, he is still thinking because he has not already been taught how better to think that some personal connection or some material consideration is a prime requisite in the working out of the problem, and that he must look to these as his source of supply. He is, in short, holding fast to a transient, material sym bol of supply. He is not holding fast to the true idea of substance and supply, which, as idea, is eter nal and changeless.
