A lesson-sermon prepared especially for this occasion was read b"
the First and Second Readers. One
of the Scriptural passages contained
in this lesson-sermon was from
Psalm 22:28: "For the kingdom is
the Lord's; and he is the governor
among the nations." A correlative
passage from the Christian Science
textbook, Cp- 106) was as follows:
"God has endowed man with inalienable rights, among which are self-
government, reason, and conscience.
Mas is properly self-governed only
when he is guided rightly and governed by his Maker, divine Truth
and Love."
The reading of the "scientific

Scripture, and the benediction frr \
