CHRISTIAN SCIENCE TOPIC FOR SUNDAY ANNOUNCED "Is the Universe, Including Man, Evolved by Atomic Force?" is the subject of the lesson-sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, Sunday. The golden text "Lo, he thet formeth the mountains and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The Lord, The God of hosts, is His name" (Amos Among the citations which comprise the lesson-sermon is the following from the Bible: "The heavens declare the glory of God, the firmament sheweth his handywork. The law of the Lord is perfeet, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple" (Psalm 19:1, 7). The lesson-sermon also includes the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: partnership of mind with matter would ignore omnipresent and omnipotent Mind. This shows that matter did not originate in God, Spirit, and is not eternal.
Therefore matter substantial, living, nor intelligent. The starting-point. of divine Science is that God, Spirit, is All-in-all, and there is no other might nor Mind, that God is Love, and therefore He is divine Principle" (p. 275).

(Special) -Toll collections on the Evansville-Henderson bridge during May totaled $28,947.35, according to a report received here today from J. Lyter Donaldson, state commissioner of highways. Collections in May, 1939, were $26.089.65. During last month, the bridge was used by 81.015 vehicles. including 64,218 automobiles, 14,901 trucks, 1,533 buses and 363 other vehicles.
Average vehicles per day were 2,613, and average collections per day were $933.79. The bridge was orginally scheduled to be freed of tolls about Sept. 1, but Commissioner Donaldson recently announced that he had uncovered clause in the state's contract with Indiana whereby Kentucky could continue 10 collect tolls until it is reimbursed for maintenance of the span during the period when collections were used for retirement of bonds. In event the state decides to reimburse itself for the maintenance, the bridge will not free until about March 1, 1941. REALTORS HEAR CREDIT MANAGER Consumer credit was discussed by G.
Thomas Davis. treasurer manager of the Merchants Credit bureau, before the Evansville Board of Realtors at luncheon yesterday in the Belvedere cafe. Mr. Davis reported a trend away from open charge accounts to installment, purchases, and said "we will see a time when the 30-day account will be reduced to a minimum." The trend in overloading the consumer with credit is greater now than at any time in the past, according to Mr. Davis, who said the government played a part in this situation through extension of FHA credits for appliances and the like.
"We are on dangerous ground in overloading the consumer with credit," the speaker asserted. He pointed out that some correction is being worked out in certain individual lines. "Wise handing of credit lines is very important today," he stressed. Mr. Davis discussed the obtaining of credit information on renters, and Edward Kinkle was named chairman of a committee from the realtor group work with the credit bureau along that line.
