An Announcement

On Saturday, January 28, 1922, Justice John C. Crosby of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts appointed as Trustees of The Christian Science Publishing Society from the names presented by The Christian Science Board of Directors, Fred M. Lamson, William P. McKenzie, and James E. Patton, three Christian Scientists who have been at all times active and unqualified in their support of the By-laws and government of The Mother Church.

Mr. Fred M. Lamson of Marshfield, Mass., is a Vice-President of the Old Colony Trust Company of Boston. Mr. Lamson has long been a member of The Mother Church, which he has faithfully served for many years as a member of the Finance Committee. He is a trustee of the Franklin Square House in Boston, trustee of Mount Pleasant Home, and trustee of the Shawmut Real Estate Trust.

Mr. William P. McKenzie of Cambridge, Mass., is well known to Christian Scientists for his long and faithful service to The Mother Church. He was educated at Upper Canada College, Toronto University, Knox College, Toronto, and Auburn Theological Seminary. After a brief pastorate, he taught English literature and rhetoric at Rochester University, during which work he became interested in Christian Science. In 1894 he was elected a "First Member" of The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston. In 1896, at Mrs. Eddy's invitation, he came to Boston to be a member of the committee which prepares Bible lessons for Christian Science churches. In 1898, by Mrs. Eddy's appointment, he became one of the original Trustees of The Christian Science Publishing Society. He was a member of the Board of Lectureship, 1898-1915. From July, 1917, to March, 1920, he was Editor of The Christian Science Journal and the Christian Science Sentinel, which position he resigned as a protest against interference with editorial responsibility by the Trustees of the Publishing Society. Mr. McKenzie received instruction in Christian Science directly from Mrs. Eddy in 1898.
