Further Newspaper Corrections

Willard S. Mattox

In the last issue of the Sentinel we published several corrections of misstatements concerning Christian Science. These corrections were made by members of the Publication Committee and originally appeared in the various papers which had published the misstatements. We are pleased to say that in most cases when managers and editors have been requested to do so, they have gladly corrected any erroneous statements that may have appeared in their columns.

We herewith publish some recent corrections of the erroneous statement that Christian Scientists are indifferent about the observance of health ordinances and the matter of sanitation and infection.

Editor The Times:—On November 14, a dispatch from Cleveland was published in your paper regarding the prosecution of Mrs. Lydia Stone, a Christian Scientist, in the Police Court there. I desire to say that the neglect by the Christian Scientist in reporting the case to the Health Department, was merely a technical violation of the health ordinance, and was not deliberate neglect.
