    The characters and lives of men
determine the peac^, prosperity,
and life of nations.—Mary Baker
Eddy
EVERY
COLLEGE
STUDENT
needs this
book
to increase
Usability to
learn
-
An understanding of the truth
contained in Science and
Health with Key to the Scrip
tures by Mary Baker Eddy can
remove the pressure which con
cerns today’s college student
upon whom increasing de
mands are being made for
academic excellence.
Christian Science calms fear
and gives to the student the full
assurance he needs in order to
learn easily and to evaluate
what he has learned. It teaches
that God is man’s Mind—his
only Mind—from which ema
nates all the intelligence he
needs, when and as he needs it.
Science and Health, the text
book of Christian Science, may
be read or examined, together
with the Bible, in an atmos
phere of quiet and peace, at any
Christian Science Reading
Room. Information about Sci
ence and Health may also be ob
tained on campus through the
Christian Science
