Y.-4U.R) Visit ing foreign students at Syracuse university are many times sur prised to "discover" the United States. Brought up on a diet of fan tastic stories of American life, good or bad, they find that most of what they have learned is ex aggerated. ' One hungry visitor built a fire in a dormitory corridor, believ ing that dinner could best be cooked there. An amazed house mother quickly pointed out that Stories Exaggerated kitchen facilities were available. The university, having a large enrollment of foreign students, 356 from 52 countries has set up a special board to aid in weed ing out some of the more popu lar mlsconceptlons,of American life. Inhabitant of the earth when giant dinosaurs first appeared, a New Zealand lizard known as the tuatara has lived practi cally unchanged through mil lions of years. Dr. Robert J.

Some Accidents In Oregon Seem Without Reason Salem (U.R) There must be a feeling of futility among ac cident analysts as they sort through more than 74,000 traf fic accidents occurring each year in Oregon, according to traffic safety division. Some of the accidents seem without reason. An accident report received recently by the division said the mishap occurred when a c a r missed a turn on the highway. The driver said: "I must have had a flat tire." Police investi gation showed all four tires still inflated after the mishap. Driving Fast Further checking showed that the curve the driver missed was a 60 degree turn, and two pass engers said the driver had It up to 70 miles an hour. One driver failed to signal for a left turn and pulled direct ly into another car. He said he didn't signal because "I didn't want to roll down my window."

Like doubting Thomas, mankind largely remains incredulous that Jesus' heal ing work was the Action of divine law, and doubts that prayer can heal today. This doubt can now be honestly dispelled. To any sincere seeker there is proof, ample, abundant, and at band, that the law of God is still available for humanity's need. The Christian Science textbook Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy shows plainly that God's healing, helping power exists. It shows how it is ever available to anyone e who understands the same . truth Jesus knew, which he directly promised would "make us free." This great book shows how to find for ontulf this spiritual understanding.and . how to put it to the test in daily life. As one gains this price less knowledge of the Christ, health and happi ness ascend to the realm of unshakable certainty.
