The War Relief Fund

Editor

The amount contributed to Feb. 28, 1917, by Christian Scientists in the United States to the War Relief Fund was $264,442.35, of which sum $256,386.63 has been distributed to those in need in the following countries, namely: England, Canada, Australia, Jamaica, Germany, France, Italy, Armenia, Holland, Switzerland, Denmark, Turkey in Asia, Mexico. This fund will remain open until further notice, and in the mean time remittances from individuals and organizations may be sent to Adam H. Dickey, Treasurer, 236 Huntington Avenue, Back Bay, Boston, Mass.

Our readers will note with interest the following excerpts from a few of the letters received from some of the beneficiaries of this fund:—

"I can hardly find words to express to you and to the relief committee of the Christian Science Society my deepfelt thanks for the beautiful gift and the groceries. There was so much of it that I felt that God was pouring out His horn of plenty over us. Then the words came to me: 'I will ... open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.' Oh, how I thank God for the unexpected help which He sent to us through the love of good people."
