Christian Scientists
Hear Sermon On Truth
“TRUTH” was the subject of the
lesson sermon in all Christian sci
ence churches and societies on
Sunday, January 24.
The Golden Text was from
Psalms 86:11. “Teach me thy way
O Lord; I will walk in thy truth;
unite my heart to fear thy name.”
Among the citations which com
prised the lesson-sermon were the
following from the Bible: “My
little children, let us not love in
word, neither in tongue; but in
deed and in truth. And hereby we
know that we are of the truth, and
shall assure our hearts before
him” (1 John 3: 18, 19).
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:
“Since God is All, there is no room
for His unlikeness. God, Spirit,
alone created all, and called it
good. Therefore evil, being con
trary to good, is unreal, and can
not be the product of God. You
conquer error by denying its veri
ty” (Page 339).

SYNOPSIS
KAY STEVENS, personable young
vice president of McClure’s de
partment store In New York,
feels herself strong attracted to
JONATIAN (JAKE) KERR, talent
ed pianist, who has refused all
professional offers. Kay has been
very friendly with
DAVID BANNING, JR., 35-year
old president of the concern, since
she first started to work there.
Her best friend in the city is her
cousin.
HENRIETTA PAGE, who lives in
Greenwich Village.
* • *
YESTERDAY: Jake tells his femin
ine companion that he wants to
hear nothing of a Mr. Everett,
who is trying to persuade him to
become a professional pianist.
CHAPTER FOUR
Jake had told Hat dinner that
he didn’t want to have anything
to do with Mr. Everitt, but he
hadn’t banked on what ideas Mr.
Everitt himself might have up his
sleeve. On Friday afternoon he
came puffing up the stairs of Jake’s
apartment. Jake knew who it was,
because everyone else took the
stairs on the run. So he ignored
the door bell’s ringing, trying to
pretend he wasn’t there.
“Answer this bell, you young
scoundrel,” roared the old man. “I
know yo uare in; I heard the piano
a block away.” So Jake let him
in. The old man was winded but
magnificent, his back straight, his
white hair thick as a boy’s. Jake
really liked him; he wished they
could be friends on a different
basis.
"Ridiculous, your living in this
barn,” the old man spluttered.
‘‘It suits me.”
"That’s because you’re a lazy
good-for-nothing.” The words were
harsh. The tone wasn’t. The old
man began pacing the floor. "I’m
here for the last time, Jonathan,”
he said sadly. “I’m going to give
you exactly 24 hours.’’ He pulled
out his old-fashioned gold watch.
“If I haven’t heard from you by
6:36 tomorrow night, the offer is
off.” j
“I’ll give you your answer now,”
Jake said defiantly.
“You think it over, you muddle
headed young fool.” Mr. Everitt
walked across the floor, put his
hand on Jake’s shoulder and grip
ped it hard.
"You young people think you
know all the answers, Jake.” He
had never called him Jake before.
"They say wisdom is what you’ve
learned when it’s too late to do
anything about it. You won’t be
young forever. It takes vitality
an dgood nerves and a strong will
to make a success of anything,
particularly a career as a concert
pianist.’’
Jake interrupted him. “I don’t
give a hang about a career. I’ve
told you that. I play the piano be
cause I like it.” He hesitted a
minute. ,
. “ ‘Like’ is a pretty weak word.”
The old man's voice was gentle.
"All right, maybe it is all that
really counts in my life. But now
I’m boss. If I take your offer, your
money, start giving concerts, then
I'm a slave to it.” Jake shook the
old man’s arm free impatiently.
“Nobody’s free, Jonathan,” the
old man said. He sounded tired.
“Let’s hope you grow up before it’s
too late.” He picked up his hat and
cane. “If you come to your senses

before tomorrow' night, call me here
in town. I don’t leave for the coun
try until after dinner.”
After he had left, Jake wondered
if he really was a muddle-headed
young fool. He looked around his
“barn” affectionately. It was all
he wanted. A concert grand piano,
a comfortable day bed, some good
arm chairs. Het had cured the
bare masculine look by . making
chintz curtains and slip covers. He
didn’t have any desire to clutter
up his life with inanimate things
that became a nuisance and a
bother. That’s what people did
when they made a lot of money.
He sat down at the piano. The
keys feit cool and smooth to his
touch. He played a few chords and
then went crashing into a Chopin
polonaise. He played effortlessly,
with a sense of peaceful exhilara
tion. He was lost in a world of
his own. When he got up from the
piano hours later, his mind felt
clear and single tracked. If he
made a serious career of this thing
that he loved so deeply, it -wouldn't
be his any more. It would be tied
up with people and trains and din
ner parties and schedules. And all
those outside things, bit by bit,
would pull apart this thing that
now was wholly his.
He slammed on his hat, dashed
down the stairs and out into the
night. He suddenly felt drained of
thought and feeling and very hun
gry. He went to a diner, ordered
ham and eggs, drank several cups
of good hot coffee. Then he walked
down to the Battery, stood watch
ing the lights on the water. It
was late and the Battery was de
serted. Jake felt as though he had
New York to himself. “Tomorrow,
maybe, I’ll be restless, crave com
panionship,” he thought, “but right
now I wouldn't change places with
anyone in the world. I must re
member how important this feeling
of being independent and free is,
specially when I see Kay.”
Saturday was Kay's busiest day
at the store. The sale was in full
swing and the crowds tremendous.
She and David had just finished a
tour of all her departments, dis
cussing the results of the sale with
each buyer. Most of them were
jubilant.
“The stuff from California is go
ing well,” David observed. Some of
the buyers had made buying trips
to the coast. With foreign markets
cut off, California was rapidly be
coming the source of many novel
ties.
“Maybe you’d better take a trip
out there yourself this summer,”
David suggested.
“I’d thought of that. Kay was
casual; she wasn’t anxious to leave
town.
“We might both go, fly out and
back. A week would do it.”
“Do you think we ought to be
away at the same time”
•‘Johnson can manage your
group, can’t he.” Johnson was her
new assistant and extremely cap
able. He would have no difficulty
managing without her for a week.
It wouldn’t be fair to him to deny
it.
"Yes, he can,” she admitted.
“Are you intimating that you’d
prefer to go without me” David
said wryly.
“Of course not,” she said quick
ly, smiling up at him. “It’s a good
idea, both for business purposes
and because it would be fun. I’ve
never been to California.”
‘It's a marvelous place.” David
was enthusiastic. ‘‘Why not let me
tell you about it at dinner tonight.”
The crowds jostled them.
“Sorry, I’ve got to go to a party.”
She couldn’t miss Tony’s party for
any reason.
“Some night next week, per
haps,” David said, resigned.
Kay had a sudden idea. Tony
never cared who came to his par
ties, the more the merrier. And
she wasn’t anxious to arrive alone
with Het. Too pointed. “Are you,
by any remote chance, feeling Bo
hemian today,” she asked. ‘Be
cause if you are, I’ll take you
along.”
David’s smile was immediate and
warm. “Sold.”
“I can’t vouch for what I’m let
ting you in for.”
“You’ll be there.”
Kay chose to let that remark
pass. "I’ll want to change, and
clean up a bit. Why don't you
pick me up about 7 o’clock. And
don’t say I didn’t warn you.’’
Tony’s parties were famous. He
was gregarious, indiscriminate. He
invited people at random, so you
were apt to find anyone there from
a bus conductor to a foreign dipli
mat. The drinks were strong, the
atmosphere hospitable. Nobody
ever went home.
It was Kay’s initiation. She had
met Tony and she knew all about
his parties from hearsay. Over the
phone Het agreed to dine with
David and Kay, and assured her
that Tony would welcome David.
“Heavens, don’t be jittery about
bringing the president of McClure’s.
Tony will consider him quite a haul.
He’s a snob in a way. He likes to
have a few names scattered among
the hoi-polloi. And speaking of hoi
Polloi, don’t forget onr friend Jake
is due to be there, too; that is, if
he remembers to come. Sometimes
he’s very absent-minded.”

HOSPITAL WAGE
INCREASE SEEN
WLB Allows Raises To
Keep Medical Help
On Jobs
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24. — (A*) —
Non-profit hospitals, hard-pressed
to hold their 150,000 to 200,000 em
ployes tempted by higher pay in
other fields, were authorized by
the War Labor Board today to
grant wage increases wherever
necessary to safeguard the health
of communities. *
In its first grant of such blanket
authority since its initial exemp
tion of employers of eight persons
or less, WLB said it was acting
at the urgent request of the hos
pitals to forestall an emergency.
Salary or wage adjustments may
be made by the non-profit hospitals
without prior approval of the
board, subject, however, to final
review by the WLB, which asked
for monthly reports.
Should the board find that ad
justments went above prevailing
wage or salary levels for similar
services in a given area, the board
would reverse the modification,
but it would not be retroactive.
Sixty California hospitals, the
board said, had appealed to the
regional office there for emergen
cy approval of a wage increase in
order to retain their staffs.
