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.”

GT ove” was the subject of the
— Lesson Sermon in all Churches
of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday,
July 31.
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).
