Unity Building, 913 Tracy Avenue VOL. II KANSAS CITi, MO., THURSDAY, JUNE 23, 1910 NO. 7 LET’S PLAY Let’s dream like the child in its playing; Let’s make us a sky and a sea. Let’s change the things ’round us by say- ing, - They’re things that we wish them to be. And if there is sadness or sorrow. Let’s dream till we charm it away, Let’s learn from the children and borrow A saying from childhood—-“Let’s play.” Let’s play that the world’s full of beauty; Let’s play there are roses in bloom— Let’s play there is pleasure in duty And light where we thought there was gloom. Let’s play that this heart with its sorrow Is bidden be joyous and glad; Let’s play that we’ll find on the morrow The j ovs that we never have had. Let’s play we have done with repining, Let’s play that our longings are still; Let’s play that the sunlight is shining To gild the green slope of the hill. Let’s play there are birds blithely flinging Their songs of delight to the air; Let’s play that the world’s full of singing, Let’s play there is love everywhere. — Selected. ALL THROUGH WITH HIM The professional point of view is rare- ly that of the humanitarian. A passenger on a London omnibus calls out to the con- ductor : “ ’Ere, there ! Whoa ! There’s an’ old chap fallen off the bus! ” “All right,” responds the conductor, cheerfully, “’E’s paid his fare !”— L o n d o n Sketch.

They expect to move about July 15th. * * * ' * The healing meeting in the Silent Unity room will be held at 4 o’clock during the summer.

Nearly twelve hundred stu- dents have been enrolled, and several of them are now at work on the twelfth and concluding lesson of the Primary Course. About $1200 has been contributed by the school to the new buildings. All of this has been accomplished in a little more than one year, and it is evident that the blessing of the Spirit has been with the work from its begininng.

DO YOU LIVE IN YOUR PURSE?L ast T uesday afternoon, M r. F illm ore
in his H ea lth and H arm ony C lass took up the sub ject of P ro sp erity from a s tan d point en tirely new. H e referred to the sending fo rth of the Seventy and called atten tion to th a t p a r t of the ir instructions which forbade the use of
a purse. T hen he w ent on to show th a t m any people lim it the ir supply to the am ount there contained. By way of illustration he told of one woman who w ent for a car ride w ith the man to whom she was engaged. H e drew from his pocket a sm all purse and fumbled around in it. hunting for the dime for the fares, and all a t once it came over her with a rush w hat it would be to live year a fte r year w ith a m an like th a t, and she broke the engagem ent. H er woman’s intuition told her he was not free and generous in money m atters.
T he lesson of the afternoon was, Get aw ay from all financial lim itations and make connection w ith the great U niversal Source of supply . Almost unconsciously the purse idea becomes fixed in the mind as the storehouse of supply , and when it is em pty one thinks the resource is not in existence for him. Jesus said, “ Judge not according to the appearance.” W hen the purse appears to be em pty, be wise and know th a t back of it is the G rea t U nlim ited Resource. B y filling your purse w ith th a t sort o f thought-substance you m ake it a m agnet fo r p len ty and supply will come in new ways to fill it. Again, if you are in the habit of living financially in your purse, and counting your resources by w hat it contains, it w ere bette r th a t you have no purse a t a ll, so Jesus said to those whom he sent fo rth a t the last, “ T ake neither purse nor scrip t.”
