' Keynoting the Lesson-Sermon is the Golden Text from Hebrews- (1:10): "Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the works of thine hands." Among the pass ages from "Science and Health writh Key to the Scriptures" toy Mary Baker Eddy will be the fol lowing: "The true theory of the uni verse, including man, is not in material history but in spiritual development. Inspired thought relinquishes a material, sensual, and mortal theory of the uni verse, and adopts the spiritual and immortal." (547:25). Passages to be readfrom the Bible include the following: "For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth amto man what is his thought, that mak eth .the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The Lord, The God of hosts, is his name."
