Semi-annual Lecture of the Mother Church

We give below a condensed report of the lecture by Bicknell Young, C.S.B., member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship, in Symphony Hall, Boston, April 14. The immense audience, which completely filled the large hall, gave the closest attention to the speaker, who was introduced by Mr. Alfred Farlow in the following words:—

Friends:—We are here for a candid consideration of one of the most serious subjects of our age; one which involves not only the health, happiness, and general welfare of the present, but the hope of the future.

The rapid progress in all lines, the frequent discoveries and inventions, affording constant surprises in novelties, have cultivated in the public mind a condition of expectancy and toleration which is quite prepared to give a hearing to all new subjects. And, since we have before us a representative audience assembled from the advanced thinkers of New England, I can trustingly bespeak for our guest your most sincere and earnest attention.
