LOYALTY TO THE MOTHER CHURCH

William E. Armstrong

The following telegram to The Mother Church from the clerk of First Church of Christ, Scientist, Buffalo, N. Y., as well as the action taken by First Church of Christ, Scientist, New York city, in electing trustees, clerk, treasurer, and superintendent of the Sunday School, upon the platform of "Loyalty to The Mother Church, democratic government, rotation in office," are indicative of a practical application of our Leader's advice to branch churches, quoted in our last week's issue and on previous occasions.

Buffalo, N. Y., Jan. 18, 1910.

Board of Directors, The First Church of Christ, Scientist:—First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Buffalo, assembled in the church in annual meeting, send grateful greetings. Awakened to new life, we have adopted by-laws insuring democratic government, and have gained a fuller appreciation of our mission as a loyal branch of The Mother Church. We start the new year with new inspiration and avowed determination to cooperate enthusiastically with your Board and with our brethren here and elsewhere in promoting our glorious Cause and supporting all the institutions identified with it and founded by our beloved Leader, the value of whose patience and wisdom is realized now more than ever before.
