November 12, 1926 WILMETTE LIFE Politics Rotten? Forum to Discuss O.uestion Sunday The Chicago Forum, Sunday afternoon, November 14, will present a discussion of the question "Is Politics an Incurable Disea~r ?" with four leadinrr Chicago citizen s contributing thef; answers. Fred A. Moore, director of the Forum, explains that the question arises from such facts as these-the wide-spread popular distrust of government and of public officials the diminishing percentag· e of voters' who go to the polls, the rampant feeling that the professional politician and organized machines hold a whip hand in shaping election results, all summarized in the phrase "politics is rotten." The spe~kers will be Anton ]. Cermak, president of the Cook County board of commissioners; Henry P. Chandler, former president of the City club and chairman of the Committee of 200 that undertook to secure high grade candidates last spring-; Victor A. Olander, secr.etary of the Illinois Federation of Labor, and Miss Harriet E. Vittum, Northwe stern university settlement. Each speaker will give his o: her own answer to the question in v1ew of the premises on which the questi.on is based. Finally the speakers w1ll be subjected to questions from · the audience. The Forum meets in the Erlanger theater, Sunday afternoon at 3 :15 o'clock. ' Christian Science Churches hakespearesaid··And now is the \lJinter of our 'Discontent .. -But alas!

The Golden Text was from Ezekiel 18:23, "Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God: and not that he should return from . his ways, and live?" Among the citations which . comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "Be ye therefore followers of God as dear children: And have no fello~·ship with the unfruitful works of darkness but rather reprove them. But all things that are reproved are made manifest hy the light: for whatsoever doth make manife~t is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that slee·p est, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light" (Ephesians 5:1, 11, 13, 14). The Le sson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key _to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "\\'hen we are awake, we dream of the pains and pleasures of matter. Who will say, even t.hough he does not understand Christian Science, that this dreamrather than the dreamer- may not be mortal man? ...
