Amendments to Church By-laws

Editor

Section I of Article XXXI. of the By-laws of the Church Manual has been amended so as to read as follows: "There shall be a Board of Education, under the auspices of the Massachusetts Metaphysical College, consisting of three members, a president, a vice-president, and a teacher of Christian Science. Obstetrics is not Science, and will not be taught."

Article XXXIV. of said Church Manual has been repealed.

Section 2 of Article XXXVIII. has been amended so that it now reads as follows: "It shall be the duty of the member constituting the Publication Committee to correct in an Christian manner a lapse, injustice, or blunder, relating either to Christian Science, to Mrs. Eddy, or a prominent member of this denomination, in the periodicals issued in the city wherein he resides. This committee shall also be responsible for correcting, as above named, abusive newspaper articles published in his city and state, that have not been replied to by other Scientists, and have been forwarded to him for said purpose; also for reading the last proof sheet of the article he has prepared on this subject, having it published according to copy; and for having the papers containing these articles circulated in large quantities, and a copy sent to the Clerk of this Church. It shall also be his duty to have published in a Boston newspaper, each year, the letter sent by this Church from their annual meeting to the Pastor Emeritus."
