as men awaken to the necessity of
following in the footsteps of Christ
Jesus that universal peace can be-
come an assured fact. Even this is.
however. beginning to be recognized
by an ever increasing number as the
only way of salvation for the world
from its manifold difficulties; and
herein lieth a great hope for this
age.
Christ Jesus was the one who
proved under every condition that
peace resulted for him and for
others only in the degree that the
will of God was understood and
obeyed. 110 it was who under evury
circumstance victoriously demon-
strated that the peace "which pas-
scth all understanding" resulted
from his triumph over that which
is unlike God. He never looked for'l
it in materiality: but as he met and
mastered the claims of mortal cx-
lstence he won the peace which
alone satisfies.
Unseltlshness was one of the
most prominent keynotes in his life
among men. and it was us/ho con-
quered all the beliefs in a sclfhood
apart from God that men were uni-
versally blessed through his example
and. demonstration. Without Christ-
ian Science mankind could not un-
derstand that unselfishnoss means
the overcoming of self-will. sulf—
lovc. and self-Justification iu vach
human consciousness. Mrs. Eddy
defines these. in "Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures" (p.-
242). as "the adamant of error"
and "the law of sin and death." It
was through triumphlng' over these
universal claims of evil that Jesus
gained the continually recurring
peace which finally rcsultcd for him.
and must result equally for all. in
the peace which knows no cnd
Perfect peace is won by degrees.
It does not come for the more ask-
ing. It docs not come alone for the
seeking. It is one of the added
things which result from seeking
"first. the kingdom of God. and his
righteousness." Paradoxical as it
may seem to be. peace often comes
only as the human mind sacrifices
what it calls pcacc. Mrs. Eddy. in
her Message to The Mother Church
for 1902 (pp. 12. 13). in speaking
of her founding of “the institutions
and early movements of the Cruise

peace sacrificed, Christ and our
Cause my only incentives, and each
success incurred a sharper fire from
enmity."
She who walked most. closely in
the footsteps of our blessed Mustar,
recognized, as did he. that peace
which is to endure can ‘1c Won only

tion. W'hile the fullness of peace
can come to all men only as evuy
mortal fault is destroyed ,onr path-
way is continually being cheered by
some degree of its presence. For
each victory won, each wrong proved
unreal. must be followed by some
measure of the blissful consciousness
of God's neurncss and power: and
this is the true meaning of peace.
In “Miscellaneous V‘V’ritlngs" (p.
22?) our b vcd Leader gives us
a vision of t is when she says. "The
sublime summary of an honest lifc
satisfies the mind craving a. higher
good, and battles it in the cool waters
of peace on earth; till its own by the
amount of happiness it has bestowvu
puon others." How true this is; and
yet how rarely have men measured
their own by the good they have
brought to their follows! 'Iow :ei-
dom have thcy gained the wisdom
which knows that only unselfish liv-
ing can ever bring lusting satisfuc-
tlon! And still, the Christian Scion-
ttst understands full well that he
knows hicssedncss only as he rcflccts
that which blesses. He has had it
proved to him over and over again
that he never knows truc peace ox-
ccpt he win it as “the fruit of con-
quered sin." as he triumphs over
some selfish tendency. as he over-
comcs some arrogant claim of a mind

As another Christmas season ap-
proaches. when all the Christ'an
world is turning its thought towards
the birth of Christ Jesus, his mission

The transformation of the hotel

frequently in high class hotels.
while’ in many of them the has- tit-

Apropoa of this one writer says}
”It is noted by observant travelers
that a growing army of men are to
be seen dropping into. a hotel tea
room for refreshments on their way
home from business." The same
authority says that “From this it
is only a. step to afternoon tea. in
the business offices and factories-—
a custom that the English have
found to be exceedingly beneficial in
keeping up the morale of the work-
crs when the mid-afternoon fatigue
begins to interfere with effic ncy."

“It is impossible unless you have

World’s Largest Film
Studio for Queens
NEW YORK—Further proof of
the Eastward trend of motion picture
production comes in the announce-
ment that a group of tour import-
ant film corporations are jointly in-
terested in a motion picture studio
in the Borough of Queens on which
construction will be started in- two
months. A statement from the of-
fice of Arthur S. Friend, president
of Distinctive Picture Corporation.
said. it was intended to make this
"the largest motion picture studio in
the world."
Among those listed as giving sup-
port to the enterprise besides the
Distinctive Corporation are Richard
A. Rowland. president 01 First Na-
tional: Samuel Goldwyn as an indi-
vidual producer. and E. L. Smith of
Inspiration Pictures. The exact lo-
cation of the site which has been
chosen was withheld. It is described
as being within twenty minutes of
the Times Square district. At the
outset it will have nine stages and
studio units, capable of being in-
creased. Mr. Friend said the enter-
prise had developed as a. result of a
demand greater than ever in the last
two months on the part of the coun-
try's large producers for. additional
Eastern studio facilities.

being organized largely by Henry M.

Speaking of the plan Mr. Rowland
said: "The project has my hearty
indorscmcnt. The industry is very
much in need of this studio plant
and I feel sure that such an enter-
prise will greatly help in our efforts
to make good motion pictures at
much~lowcr cost than is now possl~
ble."
Mr. Hobart said there in the in-
dustry were convinced that the grcat
motion pictures of the future would
be produced in the East.

tries known in which it is believed
