The students now studying will be joined by five more who are waiting in New York for permission.to enter. The five now in attendance are: Miss Beatrice Beatitude WorisHie, Charles William Baffoe, - ence and Health with Key to the REEDOM!

Is is it not ariy se bet py get OF, self-discipline, liberty of the min and spirit? Is not the truly free oa dividual or nation the one most cognizant of the divine of: freedom, most alert in. def nding |. its privileges, and most zealous in meeting its r nsibilities? Paul ringingly exclaimed, ~I was free born~ (Acts 22 ment of the t truth that man is free_born nd the establishment of freedom in the hearts and lives of individuals and nations. Of what avail would freedom be to a people unprepared to exercise the divine right of self-government? Only those who are first obedient to moral and spiritual jaw can know true freedom and its blessings. On page 228 of ~Sei pe ae by Mary Baker Eddy these stirring words: ~The en-: avement of man is. not legitimate. It -will cease when man enters into his heritage of fréedom, his God-given dominion over the material senses.~ The-man or woman who puts God first and relies on God alone can glimpse the fact that he is divinely governed and divinely free. @ It is of paramount importance to know what true freedom is and how to attain it, if we are to do our part to help establish on the earth fraternity, equality, and peace.... Material bondage is not ix God~s plan for us, and as we establish in our consciousness our absolute freedom from sin, disease, and death, man in God~s image appears~fetterless, diseaseJess, free.... We cannot begin too soon to establish the habits of obedience fo God. Parents have q duty to perform in training their children from babyhood in willing obedience to Principle, Truth, and Love. a To establish a true attitude of ohedience toe Principle, the child must understand who and what it ). The discern-|{ child. is that he obeys. Primarily, it is the budding thought of the young This early training in obedience to Principle sows the seeds of. good citizenship. We look to the youth of the world for high ideals and the rich fulfillment of these ideals in a better, freer concept of government. But back of our youth is the training and education which their parents and teachers have been able to give them through a knowledge of true fteedons and right. obedience.... - * By his obedience to God, Christ: Jesus demonstrated the power of divine Principle.

The divine purpose and its expression are one. The voice of God speaks to the human heart, and it can be heard by all. It is the inner consciousness of good, popularly called our conscience, the outcome. of. our unity with the divine Mind. Obedience to it'always blesses and heals, and by spiritual education and training we learn to recognize its | clear and constant guidance. ~This is the way, walk ye in it~ (Isaiah 30:21), is the divine admonition- to the people of God throughout the Bible. Their experiences are similar to our own. We see in their trials. and victories a pattern for our own? lives. earnest effort and deep desire for spiritual growth we can prove ever more clearly that strict obedience to Truth and J.ove brings glorious, unlimited, unconditioned freedom. ~ The aed istien Science Monitor.
