SACRED STONE STOLEN


Somebody has stolen the sacred stone
on which Moses is said to have stood
while he prayed for the Israelites. The
stone was in the temple of a religious
order known as the Rosicrucians at San
Jose, CaL, who had brought it to this
country from Egypt. Dr. Spencer Lewis,
caretaker of the temple, says the Egyp­
tians had laid a curse on anyone who
should buy or steal this ancient relic
and the thief, whoever he is, is now
subject to this curse. The curse evi­
dently was not functioning while the
stone was in the hands of the Kosicru-
cians.—Cappers Weekly.

Editor of tho Evening Courier.


Dear Sir:
May I trespass upon the valuablo
space of your lottor column to
express my belief in a manner
of reconciliation between science
and religion? I read articles occa­
sionally in your paper by eminent
men in both thcso fields and they
Bcem so far apart in viewpoint as
to leave the reader and layman
suspended in doubt and hesitancy.
Religion and Science
Much of tho discord we find in
society today, resulting in sects
and factions, is due to the evident
conflict between religion and,
science. There has always been,
two theaters for man’s mental a c -}
tivity, At times these various ac-1
tivities have been so far apart
as to bo in absolute conflictlon
with each other. At other times,
they havo been so closely associa­
ted aq to overlap And bo in har­
mony with each other.
No matter how far we delve
into tho history of mankind, wo
find these two theaters, religion
and science. True, ancient science
cannot be placed into the same
classification as tho learned and
highly developed schools of scicnco
we know today, but there were
men in the early civilization who
were not so particularly interested
in why tcertain ntaural phenomena
existed.* That is, they were not
interested in why it rained and
why it snowed, but what were the
antecedent causes of these condi­
tions, what certain conditions re­
sulted in rain and in snow and they
desired to chart, map out the cy­
cles of these causes, so as to bo
ablo to determine just when this
phenomena would take place.
At the same time, there were
other thinkers <\vho looked upon this
phenomena as- tho result of an
intelligence, a dicty, a power great-
er than themselves which hadt
sometime or other, proclaimed that
this phenomena Bhould exist for
man's exclusive benefit. They saw
in it the direction of a personalized
God and at that point we arrive
at tho confliction between science
and religion.
Science, however, represented by
tho outstanding scientific figures
of today, does not deny the cxis-1
tcnce of a God, but merely ex- |
pounds a different conception of
God. Science recognizes an intelli- I
genco not apart from nature nor •
separate nature, but existent in
nature. To science, God did not, I
sometime in tho far past, crcate i
tho world and everything that is •
in it and then cease, but He ere* i
ated then and is still creating all
that is and all that shall be. To
science tnere is an intelligence
ever present underlying every­
thing.
There is only ono thing that
can harmonize these two schools,
religion and science, and that is •
mysticism. Mysticism blends the
two, the esoteric and exoteric, and I
as the Rosicrucian Brotherhood j
specifically states, as an example ■
of mysticism, it is wrong to at­
tempt to personalize his God. God 1
is an intelligence that permates
matter as well as man. In t h is !
sense, it gives man a higher con-1
sciousness, which may bo in the
form we know of as soul, but in J
nature God is evident in tho uni- (
form regularity in which nature
manifests, according to certain de­
finite established laws.
Rosicrucian mysticism of Aroorc
recognizes no beginning and no
end to creation. It does not ac­
cept a God that would create all
Rosicrucian mysticism of Aroorc
no beginning and no
r e c o g n iz e s
end to creation. It does not ac*
cept a God that would create all
that is and then stop creating. It
rather* admits of a creation that
perpetuates itself through continu­
ously creating. Mysticism expounds
God not apart from mon, but resi­
dent within man. A thorough study
of mysticism by any student,
whether of tho Rosicrucian school
or not, permits him to blend the
pristine elements of religion with
the virtues of academic science.
When this is done, these two great
fields of man’s endeavor can work
hand in hand, instead of opposing
each other to the detriment of both
and to the confusion of the mass.
I want to thank you kindly for
the space you have permitted mo
to use, and hope that other read*
crs will let us have their view­
points and reactions on this pop­
ular subject. Prescott Evening Courier

fixed seating capacity of about COO,
with plenty of space left for added

will have a large stage, there will be
reception, cloak, retiring and consult­

will be provided. At the front of the
building will be an alcove for chimes
and bells.
"In order to enlarge tho grounds
and leave park-llke space about the
buildings, we have purchased another
lot and are moving tho rcsidoncc from
it," Dr. Lewis said. "We have just
completed the fifth addition to our
buildings, an open-air Egyptian tem ­

which will be dedicated on March 22
as a shrine to the man who founded
our organization In Egypt 33 centuries
ago this month."
The auditorium will be named a ft­

Dr. Lewis, was an officer of the Roslc-

from all parts of the world will be
present. I t will also be used for free

Shrine Draws Visitors
to Rosicrucian Park
in California
A temple without roof or walls Is
attracting thousands of visitors lo tho
Rosicrucian park In San Jose, Calif.
The strangely constructed temple
is an exact replica of the famous
temple of Karnak. built by the Egyp­
tians In the year 1350 B. C.
In every detail the original shrine
has been reconstructed: hieroglyph­
ics and complex decoration represent­
ing weeks of tedious carving and
painting have made the temple one
of the most unusual buildings in the
United Slates.
The odd monument commemorates
the memory of the founders of the
Rosicrucian brotherhood, one of the
oldest organizations in the world.
Over 3.000 yenrs ago. In a like temple,
these sages gathered to share their
wisdom with those desiring counsel.
It was a t tho time of the erection
of the temple of Karnak. Egyptian
historians contend, that Amonhotcp
IV founded the famous fraternity
whlrh continues to disseminate Its
knowledge to this day.
The Rosicrucian brotherhood,
known generally as AMORC. has re­
cently completed the unique temple
as a part of the building program on
I heir grounds In California, their
North American headquarters. An
Egyptian auditorium, dcdicatcd to
the memory of Sir Francis Dacon. at
one time a Rosicrucian leader, also Is
nearing completion in the Rosicru­
cian park. The Milwaukee Journal

ROfSIORUCIANS MAKE
TRIP TO BIO TREES
Several hundred Rosicrucians
gathered at North American head­
quarters at Amorc tem ple, in an­
nual convention at San Jose, and
enjoyed a motor trip through the
Santa Cruz mountains to the
beach here yesterday.
The group visited points of in­
terest on the coast, and returned
by way of the Big Trees, where
luncheon was served. For many
it was their first glimpse of the
glaat redwood trees, and they de­
scribed the experience a thor­
oughly enjoyable one.
D elegates returned to Ban Jose
in tim e for the devotional services
at Amorc tem ple in the evening.
Convention sessions were resum­
ed today, continuing throughout
tom orrow and W ednesday. i

Dr. Lewis To
Resume Talks
On Sundays
Those who attended nny one of tho
weekly Sunday meetings conducted by
the Roslcrurlnn Order Inst winter, will
be particularly interested In the an*
noimcemcnt that tho public lectures
will be resumed November fl.
As last year, the lectures will be held
In the attractive Francis Bncon Audi-
torlum In Rosicrucian Park, Naglco
Avenue near Park, and will be con­
ducted by Dr. H. Spencef Lewis, su­
preme head of the order.
Tho subjects discussed by Dr. Lewis
do not deal with those touched upon
by religious organizations. Discussion
is upon principles whereby the Rosi­
crucians havo demonstrated their abil­
ity to uso universal laws and cosmic
activities in developing their inner
personal facilities to meet the demands
of human evolution and the require­
ments of dally contact with human
affairs.
Eafh program consists of a brief
but Interesting form of Oriental ritual
accompanied by oxccllont music and
followed by the regular lecture.
Those who have attended the meet­
ings here and in other citlcs where

Order laud tho type of public meet­
ing highly. Of special interest Is tho
part of tho program wherein Dr.
Lewis answers all questions relative
to human contacts. Theso questions,
which arc sent in previous to the meet­
ing, arc carefully studied and answers
elaborated upon to clearly disclose
their association with the teachings
of the order.
Each week a different subject Is
announced and newer phases of living
discussed. There Is no admission
charged, no collection taken and
everyone Is welcome.

■ The quartsrannual district conclavc
of the Rosicrucian Ilrotherhood will
convcnc at the Ncwhouse hotel Sun­
day. Members nf the organization
residing within n hundred miles of
the city me expected to attend the
conclave.
Herbert Dewitz, 27G East South
Temple street, has been appointed by
Charles Dana Dean, grand master, to
dlrcct the scssio'ns. Mr. Dcwitz ex­
plained (hat the Rosicrucians, a non-
religious fraternal organization de­
voted to the study of philosophy and
scicnce, meet four times a year
throughout North America.
Salt Lake was selected for the meet­
ing, Mr.'Dcwitz said, because of the
interest displayed at the Salt Lake
public library in the organization's
monthly periodical, "The Rosicrucian
Digest." It is probable, he added, that
nil future district activities of the
Rosicrucians will be conducted in
Salt Lake.

Centuries before Columbus had
discovered America the ancient
Egyptians had written of the land
“Where the Eagle Spreads Its
Wings." In the recent October num­
ber of “The Rosicrucian Digest,"
published at San Jose, California,
official organ of the International
Rosicrucian Brotherhood, an article
written by the Supreme Secretary
of the order asserts that archaeolo­
gists discovered ancient writings
outlining a system of symbolism to
govern the nations and continents
of the world.
The article reads, “There is a vast
amount of evidence to Indicate that
the Egyptian mystics knew centur­
ies beforehand just how the roots
of civilization would divide and sub­
divide. On a strange map found in
the archives of the mystery schools
of Egypt, we find, for instance, the
bear allotted to that area of land
now occupied by Russia, the lion
assigned to the islands constituting
the British Isles. The interesting
point is that the generally unknown
and undiscovered continent of North
| America was crudely indicated on
their maps. Three symbols were as­
signed to this continent—they being
the pyramid, the obelisk, and the
eagle with its wings outspread in
flight."

mind if I reprint them —because I wish I'd written them.
Here they are:
"It s not the man you bathe, clotha and feed that
does your thinking. It's not the man you compel to labor
to m aintain a home or family or that you force to fight for
righteousness who really cares. It's not the man thru
whose ears you hear words of praise for your acts or deeds.
It's not ho that fills you with pride. It’s not the man
you see in the mirror to whom you’re responsible for what
you are.
"It's the man inside.
"The outer man is one of bone, sinew and blood. Of
Ithese things, he was formed at birth. This phenomenon
is neither the result of man’s will nor choloe. Nature
1thereupon extends to man the alternative of life or death.
It is incumbent on man to choose—there is no midcourse.
The infant knows nothing of life at birth. The child is
bewildered by what he does know of it, and man is aware
of its illusions. Who, therefore, encourages them to
choose life?
"It's the man inside.
"This outer man we can see—what a mighty victor
he may become. He commands the forces about him. He
spans the rivers and harnesses the tide. He times the
cosmic bodies as they traverse the heavens. He links the
continents with his voice and for his travels he has the
sea. land or air for choice. Ye there are those who are
dismal and in despair who not alone the outer world

"It's the man inside.
“Everything hap two sides, even the thinnest paper.
It doesn't require church or creed to prove that under
one name there are two of you, but both are not the
fame. You can remember the things you have started
and done, but do you know whence your mental pictures
and emotions come? You ve planned many ways and
means, but every time the urge inside said: 'Don’t go
ahead' and you did, success then you did not have, it
seems. There is one mind you've used and know you have,

AMORC ROSICRUCIANS
Continuing our comments on the
Rosicrucian prophecy, “1934- -and
War." (some of which *as omit­
ted last week), we with to state that
it will be nece-tsarq to follow this
vital series of articles in tbfs space
in order to properly understand the
entire prophecy, which is happily
on* of encouragement for the CON­
STRUCTIVE FORCES m *is great
country of ours.
Thift WAR which will begin in
1934 "will involve more individuals
and citizens of the cotmtry, and re­
quire the services of the largest army
under strict tm liUrj regulations,
that has ever been organised and
sent to the field of battle by any na­
tion or country in any p*rt of the
world in pan history.”
‘T hia great war will last for many
yeara. It will be actually in its first
camp* gm by the end of 1934, and
•he American people, and the leaders
of'tfte army, and the great military
strategics who will direct the war
activities, will be unable to predict
even at the beginning of 1935 when
the-great war will come to an end.
It is very likely, very probable, that
the war will last at least seven years.
Cetfaxily it will require seven years
of continuous ar vity for this gr at
American army to teadi the ' point
where victory will be m sight.”
This prophecy in its entirety can
he secured by writ*ng to AMORC,
The Rovwrudan Brotherhood. Rosi-
rrtician Park. San Jose, California.

The American government Is on


the eve of a war of construction
against crime, corruption, syndical­
ism and civic sluggishness, accord­
ing to a brochure entitled “1934—
and War,” is<*ied by tho grand lodge
of tho . Rosicrucian order, AMORC,
and received by Mrs. A. G. Powell,
Canutillo, local commissioner.
Mrs. Powell said the brochure
prophesies that Pres. Franklin D.
Roosevelt will be tne last president
j to function and supervise affairs
• of the United States ip the same
j manner and under the same constl-
tutional rules.
I “The new form of government will
| be an intellectual dictatorship," Mrs.
Powell said. “An anti-crime move­
ment, with chapters in every com­
munity, will be formed. “The liquor
Industry will face a serious prob­
lem of decreased desire for liquor.’*
Mrs. Powell said the brochure pre­
dicts that department of Justice
