The Lectures

with contributions from John C. Lathrop, James A. Hemingway, Myrtle S. Rice, Edward A. Merritt, Ferd DeForest Ernst, J. P. Curran

John W. Doorly of Leeds, England, a member of the Christian Science board of lectureship, delivered a lecture on Christian Science Friday evening [Dec. 29] under the auspices of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., in the church edifice, Falmouth, Norway, and St. Paul Streets. He was introduced by John C. Lathrop, temporary first reader of The Mother Church, who said:—

The Mother Church welcomes to this lecture this large gathering of people who are interested in gaining a better knowledge of Christian Science and its spiritual viewpoint of God, man, and the universe. A material, limited outlook must of necessity be dissatisfying to good and upright people. Material theories and their discordant effects will finally cause mankind to turn away from human self and human will, to discover in the one divine Mind the true Principle and rule of life with its sequence of health, happiness, and peace. Christian Science, when correctly understood, reveals this spiritual rule of freedom, which is a priceless blessing within reach of all who are ready to partake thereof.
