Washington Faces Fight on Dry Code. The “Best Friend." In commenting on some of our present-day problems, the Portland Oregonian says editorially that life insurance is something no man or woman can afford to be without and that the harder the times, the more important it is to scrimp and save to meet one's premium payments which are necessary to keep protec tion in force. It says: "People pressed by present day conditions are giving up life insur- anee. Others, through fear, are fail ing to take advantage of what their ‘best friend’ offers them. If pressed too hard, a policyholder is able to borrow on hfs policy—a thing which should not he done unless dire neces sity demands it. Hut this borrowing privilege may provide the means out of a difficult situation. "Life insurance offers opportuni ties nothing else does. It gives the insured a feeling of safety and makes the family happy to know they have protection—and protec tion, in whatever form, is a mighty big thing. Instead of allowing pre miums to lapse, people should put forth every possible effort to meet them.” The state of Washington has beet placed on the list of those common wealths in which the antl-prohibi tion forces have succeeded in fore Ing a referendum vote on the state’s dry law.

The Golden Text was, “We have known and believed the love that God bath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth In God, and God in him" (I Jno. 4:16). Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "It ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well" (James 2:8). The Lesson-Sermon also Included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Sci ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures”, by Mary Baker Eddy: "It should be thoroughly understood that all men have one Mind, one God and Father, one Life, Truth, and Love. Mankind will become perfect in proportion as this fact becomes apparent, war will cease and the true brotherhood of man . “and will be established' blessed is that man who seeth his brother’s need and supplieth it, seeking hfs own in another's good” (pp.467, 518).
