Tokio, Japan (auspices of Christian Science Society of Yokohama).

Lecturer: Algernon Hervey Bathurst; introduced by Miss Florence E. Boynton, who said:—

There comes a time in the life of every one when some problem seems overwhelming. It may be sickness; it may be a problem in the home or in the school; it may be a problem in business. Humanly it seems impossible to solve it. One is then forced to look away from self and beyond the human to a higher power. In this hour of humble search a seemingly intangible something comes to consciousness, which gives hope and directs one to the spiritual, the healing channel. This was my experience some fifteen years ago. I was then in wretched health, broken physically and mentally, and in great fear of becoming a rheumatic invalid. Materia medica and the religion to which I then subscribed had failed to give me either relief or hope. Then came the turning point in my life when I read in a Christian Science Sentinel that right thinking heals. I sent at once to The Christian Science Publishing Society in Boston, Massachusetts, for literature, and began the prayerful study of Christian Science. As I gained the understanding of this new-old religion, my healing came, enabling me to take my place as a useful member of society. I now know that Christian Science, the divine revelation of Mary Baker Eddy, is the Comforter promised by the Master.
