Holy Year Tour.
Miss Hawkins and a friend
stayed in Europe when the two
months tour was completed.
They visited England, Italy,
Austria, France and Germany
and were fortunate to be there
for the Passion Play.
The 20 young women had an
unpleasant experience while}
traveling through the occupied
zone in Germany as one of the
travelers unwisely took a picture
of that territory. The Russians
held her for questioning for several hours: When she was returned to her friends Russian
soldiers were stationed at either
end of the train with Tommy
guns and the doors locked: The
train was jerked soviolently, a
suit case fell on a young lady’s
head causing her to loose consciousness and medical aid was
refused them.
Most of the Russian soldiers
they came in contact with could
speak a very good English but
generally refuse to converse with
the Americans.
Their six days spent in Vieanna
was filled with tension, as they
never knew when they would be
taken to headquarters for questioning but Paris was a playland filled with joy for: these
young travelers.
Walter Hawkins, Jr., spent the
week end with his parents but
has returned to Fort Ord where
he is awaiting orders. He had
been in the reserves so was unable to finish his last year at

For the Christian Science les‘son-sermon this Sunday, on the
subject, “Unreality,” the golden
text will be read from Jeremiah:
“What is the chaff to the wheat?
saith the Lord” (23:28).
The sermon will be comprised
of citations from the Bible and
from the Christian Science textbook “Science and Health With}
Key to the Scriptures” by Mary
Baker Eddy, including the fol-;
lowing:
Isaiah 41:15, 16: “Behold, I will
make thee a new sharp threshing
instrument’ having. teeth: thou
shalt thresh the mountains, and
beat them small, and shalt make
the “hills as. chaff. Thou shalt
fan. them, and the wind shall
carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou
shalt rejoice in the Lord, and
shalt glory in the Holy One of
Israel.”
Science and Health: “The temporal and unreal never touch the
eternal and real. _ The mutable
and imperfect never touch the
immutable and perfect. The inharmonious and _ self-destructive
never touch the harmonious and
self-existent. The opposite qualities are the tares and wheat, that
never really mingle, though (to
mortal sight) they grow side by
side until the harvest; then, Science separates the wheat from
the tares, through the realization
of God as ever present and of
man as reflecting the divine likeness” (p. 300).
