Letters to the Sentinel

Baltimore, Md., January 2, 1900.

Dear Sentinel:— The Sunday School of Second Church of Christ, Scientist, of Baltimore, Md., wants to thank you for telling us about the dedication of the Sunday School rooms by the children of First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Minneapolis, Minn., and to say how much we were helped and encouraged by this demonstration. We are much interested in all you tell us of the "big children's" work, but somehow we seem to understand the work of the little ones better. We suppose it is because we are working out the same examples, and know arithmetic better than we do geometry. Wont you please ask all the little workers to tell us something of their work from time to time?

When we read of the children's work we feel much as the little boy did when he saw his little baby brother for the first time. He said, "Oh, I'm so happy, I feel like smiling all the time !" Since we all have such a precious Mother whom we love so dearly and who loves us so truly, how can we help loving each other and being interested in all that our little brothers and sisters are doing to help on the blessed cause of Christian Science, that means so much to us? Christian Science makes us loving, truthful, obedient, and pure, and teaches us how to overcome every thing that is not good. Would it not be strange for us not to love that which does so much for us? In our Sunday School are several little children who have been healed of serious claims. Some of us helped build Mother's Room in the Mother Church, and although most of us have never visited this room, we know all about it, and some day expect to see it.
