A lecture on Christian Science was delivered at the Christian Science church by Frank H. Leonard. He was introduced by Attorney Frank L. Dodge, who said in part,—

This has been an eventful year, filled with many tender, sacred memories,—a progressive year in state, industrial, and religious affairs. Recently, one of the foremost citizens of our state, according to a newspaper report, said that perhaps it would be wise for religious bodies to adopt a uniform style of dress or costume which would have a tendency to attract people to church. The people of the Christian Science church have not adopted any uniform style of dress, and yet the seating capacity of their churches is usually filled. Shall we reason from cause to effect? Some good church people say that life is like the torrid hour, burned by the wind and sun; that it is a narrow veil between the cold and barren peaks of two eternities. Christian Scientists seem to have the conception that life, truth, and goodness are eternal and are of God.
