Strickler Deliv ered Interesting Lec ture WAS HEARDBY Many Members of the Board Lectureship of the First Church of ueiore a large and an apprecia tive audience, Virgil O. Strickler, C. S. and a member of the Board of Lectureship of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Boston, Mass., last evening delivered a most inter esting lecture on "Christian Science. The lecturer had his subject well in hand and fully explained the funda mental principles and major points of the Christian Science faith. In part he said: It is undeniable that Christian. Science has healed many sick people and has brought about the regenera tion of many who were the victims of sin. . Among its membership are those who have been healed of in temperance, of so-called chronic and organic diseases, as . well as the mal adies that were acute or functional Ity had healed others of sorrow, fear, unhappiness and similar diseased men tal conditions that often cause more suffering and distress than physical disorders, "In every case of Christian Science healing, whether the disease was chronic or acute, physical or mental, the cure was brought about without the use of hypnotism, , mental sug gestion, drugs or any material menas, and ..entirely through the applica tion of the spiritual and metaphysi cal teachings of Christian Science. "Thehealing of the sick, however, is not the primary purpose of Chris a: t : ' ' ' A ' r 1 j; .J , 1 , . ' uau ouieuuw. Acuuraing w me teaca- ings of this Science all sickness and disease , result from error and false belief, which .are summarized as sin, and when the error of belief is destroyed by the truth which Chris tian Science imparts, the disease dis appears. '. Christian Science, there fore, teaches .that the cause of all di sease and sin is mental, and not phy sical, and that both sin and disease may be cured by One and the same metaphysical " process namely, by the substitution of spiritual truth in place of error and false belief in the It is recorded in the 8th Chapter of the Gospel of John that upon one occasion Jesus turned to a group of his followers, ' who . were standing near, and said, to them, "Ye shall know the truth and the truth Hbn.ll make you free." In ill' of the Bible there is no statement of greater im portance to mankind than this ut terance of the Master. " It pre scribes the remedy for every human ill. Knowledge of a thing 1 must come through the mental and not through the physical, henoe, according to the words of Jesus, mankind will be delivered from sin, disease and death not by doctoring the physical, but by filling, the mental with, truth. "Christian Science shows that it is the effect produoed by Truth oper ating, in the human mentality,' des troying superstition, false ""and vic ious beliefs that must and will some day emancipate mankind, from bpn- jNlage- to sinr oisease and death.

GREGORY MAKES FIRST REPORT As Head of Department of Justice He Addressed Congress REVIEW YEARS WORK Makes A Number of Re- Commendations Which Are of Interest Washington, Dee. 10. Attorney General Gregory made his first re port to congress today as head of the Department of Justice. He recom mended several amendments to ex isting laws and gave a comprehen sive review of the work of the de partment for the fiscal year. His principal recommendation was for an amendment to the commodities clause of the Interstate Commerce act designed to block the way of any common carrier which seeks to trans port products over its lines in whioh it has any interest whatsoever In asking for such legislation the Attorney General Referred, to the dif ficulty the department has encoun tered in attempting to break up what is known as the "hard coal combina tion" controlling a large part of the anthracite fields in eastern Pennsyl vania. He told Cengress that rail roads in that field -'have met recent supreme court decisions, interpreting the commodities clause, by the or ganization of . corporations whose stock is distributed ratably among Stockholders of the railroad, with its management dominated by the railroad. To such a corporation 'largely, if not completely, within the oower of the railroad." This plan las been challenged by the gov ernment. ' " Aa To Ralironds. I reeommend," wrote Mr. Gre- "' - .j 1 ! 1 Ml gory, an, amendment wmcn win prohibit a railroad from transporting in interstate commeree articles which were manufactured or produced by any corporation controlled by it or affiliated with it by having the same controlling stockholders, irrespective of whether such railroad or suoh controlled affiliated corporation has an interest in the articles at the time ;f transportaion and production are to. be oompletebjp.divorced, that Con gress ., prohibit any railroad owned orconitrolled by a produoing or trad ing -corporation and not operated merely as a plant ' facility, from transporting an interstsate commerce article produced or owned by such corporation,- Other recommendation include:. An amendment making it a federal crime to km an omoer oi tne unnea States engaged in serving or execut ing process, and authority for the use of search warrants in advertising fraud eases whioh rely on the mails to Attract victims. Documentary evidence, " says the report, "only oroourable by search, is almost indispensable to convict these- swindlers and protect their victims." As the law now stands, Mr. Greg ory points out, no authority exists to recover property - used for criminal purposes, save on specifio conditions under customs, revenue, Indian li quor,! -fishery; insterstate commerce transportation and- obscene literature cases. To Enlarge Power AdtorneyGeneral Gregory recom mends that the power of federal grand: juries be enlarge so that they can investigate crimes committed in any division of a federal district. He suggestB,' also , that an amendment to existing law is needed whereby a fed eral judge in whose court an indiot ment is returned, ' may consider tes timony before the grand jury and en ter an order making! the warrant run to all parts of the federal territory. "Under the. prevailing practice," says , the report, .'"offenders against uniform Jaws while, living Within the borders of the dinted .

E. Snowdn will begin the work of pav ing Pembroke and Trent roads. The start will be made at the rock quarry, two miles from the city. The work will continue down to End street and from there will go to Trent road. This road will be paved with the shell rock as far as the intersection of Pembroke road. The entire dis tance will be about eight and one half miles and will give Craven coun ty one of the best pieces of road bed to be found in Eastern North Caro lina. The start is to be made at the rock quarry in order that the material can be hauled, over good roads in stead of through sandy road. Pem broke road has during the past few months been graded and is ready for the coating of shell rock. The build ing of this section will be used as an experiment to ascertain the cost of the construction of this varitey of thoroughfare. The ' cost, it is be lieved will be comparatively small as the convict force" is to be used in doing much of the work, and if it is larger than the cost of construct ing the former variety, of road, it will doubtless prove to be a paying Investment to the county. The old Board of Commissioners inaugurated the plan of constructing concrete bridges whenever any one of the wooden structures became un fit for service and several of these are to be found along the road which is to be paved with the shell rock These will greatly add to th& appear ance and lasting qualities of the thor oughfare.

NEW FAIR ASS'N IS PLANNED FOR ASTERN N. C. Ten or More Counties Would Be Included In The List NEW BERNJN LIST The Plan to Be Put On Foot By Wilmington Capitalists Wilmington. Dec. 10. A fair as sociation, embracing the 10 or a dozen counties of the trucking bolt of North Carolina, is planned by Wilmington and New Hanover men. The movement will probably crys tali i in a meeting which will be held during the first of the coming year, at which time it is likely that the association will be organized and that arrangements will be made to sell the stock. The New Hanover fairs planned for the future are distinctive, since instoad of being generally agricul tural, the trucking industry will be emphasized, Wilmington being the only city in the midst of the greatest trucking center in the world. Mr. J. P. Herring, county farm demonstrator, is one of the moving spirits in the movement. He saya that the idea has taken strong hold in New Hanover and that everything now looks favorable to a successful organization. The New Hanover Corn Show has proved such a decided success for two years that it has grown out of the small afiair class and for its fu ture accommodation must have some organized, body to prepare , for -it. Hence, the proposal for the associa tion. 1 Several sites in or near the city have been considered but as yet nothing has boen decided upon defi nitely. Tho whole affair being in such nebulous shape at the present time Mr. Herring could not say today for how much it will be suggested to capitalize the company. The territory suggested is that surrounding Wilmington between New Bern, Goldsboro and the South Caro lina line. The company will probaly have di rectors in each of the following con ties: New Hanover, Brunswick, Co lumbus, Onslow, Wayne, Bladen, Sampson, Pender, Duplin, - Craven and possiibly others. The stock will probably sell for $10 or $25 a share. G. A. and M. F. Russell, of Have- lock, passed through New Bern yea terday morning enroute to Kinston for a short business visit. MAY INSTALL "NEW SYSTEM Befi Telephone Company May Make Improve ments Here It is understood that The Bell Telephone Company has written to the management of the local tele phone exchange asking for informa tion as to the number of telephones in this city and within a raidius of fifteen miles of New Bern and it is understood that it is their intention to put in a new call system and pay stations whioh are knowa as the re turn fee station. The new system allows a subscriber to have three hundred calls per month for the re gular price now being charged for the service and all other calls are to be charged for at the rate of two cepts each. The return fee long dis-. tance 3ystem is said to be one of tho best ever designed. The party uses the telephone and who is required to go to a pay station, drops a coin in the box provided for that pur pose and asks for the "party desired If "Central" fails to get this party. the person telephoning, so informs her and the coin placed in the box is automatically released. Just when . this new system will be placed in service is a matter of speculation. . D. E.
