A Teacher's Testimony

Rilla Meeker Hess

For seven years I have been enjoying the benefit of the demonstrations given in the Journal without to the Field my sincere gratitude for them and for the helpful articles in both Journal and Sentinel.

During my college course a little understanding of Christian Science enabled me to do more work and better work than I could have done without it. My friends were continually telling me I should break down through trying to accomplish so much and taking so little rest. I knew God was my strength, and I left school stronger physically than when I entered.

For several years I taught in the public school, First in sixth grade, then as principal of a ward school, and was for three years instructor in algebra in the High School. No one but a teacher can know the difficulties to be met in working with so many different personalities; but a realization that there is but one Mind enabled me to rise above many seeming difficulties without discouragement or great physical weariness. I wish every teacher understood more of the Bible as explained by Science and Health, both for the good of the teacher and the benefit of the students.
