MORE GOOD WORDST he follow ing encouraging w ords of

apprecia tion came in a recen t le tte r. We publish them here fo r we feel sure th a t a ll the readers of the W e e k l y U n i t y will be g lad to know th a t it is p rov ing in te r­esting and he lp fu l to those outside as well as the local readers.

D enver, Col.D e a r W e e k l y U n i t y .— Am so g lad to

lea rn , by p ap e r received today , th a t you are s till d istribu ting the P ro sp e rity Banks and th a t they are fo r outsiders as well as local people. H a d w anted one, bu t un­derstood had to call fo r one— i. e., not m ailable. P lease renew m y subscription to the W e e k l y U n i t y under your offer, enro ll me for th e m onth’s p ro sp erity tre a t­m ent, and send the bank. T he W e e k l y U n i t y is a m ost welcome visitor and a l­ways read from beginning to end. I never fa il to find a blessing therein . T he special w ord fo r me in today ’s num ber is, “ R e­m em ber to le t your ligh test words conform to th e T ru th .” I believe th is has been a frequen t cause of stum bling w ith me for undoubtedly the ligh t w ords— the a p p a r­en tly superficial— are the index of the subconscious thought.

V ery sincerely, and w ith genuine a p ­preciation of every b ranch of U nity work. — L. J . H .

UNITY GUILD ENTERTAINMENTO n account of the circus, no doubt, all

of the U nity people did not a ttend the en­te rta inm en t given by the U nity G uild last T uesday nigh t. H ow ever, those who did come w ere well repa id for the effort it cost them.

T he m anagem ent a t the U nity In n is re ­ceiving much encouragem ent. P eople are te lling each other how good the m eals are and how restfu l and quiet the atm osphere of the In n seems. A little note which contained a five do llar b ill and ran as fol­lows, was not the least w ord of encourage­ment received:

“ F or the In n , in apprecia tion of the fact th a t it is being run on P rin c ip le .”

G old, the G uild color, was very p rom inen t; bou­quets of flowers added to the beauty of the tab le ; and having an abundance of Love and Good-will sp rink led in, a most deligh tfu l luncheon was enjoyed. A fter

THE UNITY INNU nity In n is now open under new m an­

agem ent, and everything prom ises success. T h e building has been pain ted on the out­side and some of the rooms have been new­ly papered . T he m anager is en tirely con­secrated to the w ork of the L ord , and, be­ing him self a vegetarian , and believing thoroughly in vegetarian princip les, he 'puts into the In n ’s affairs the force of his faith . H e is also firm ly grounded in the understand ing of the Law of G iving and Receiving, upon which the ru le of free­w ill offerings is based, and very consist­en tly believes th a t, being founded in P r in ­ciple, it can be dem onstrated along all lines.

Good meals are now being served th ree tim es a day. L e t us all give th is branch of the U nity w ork our h earty co-operation and support.
