with contributions from Elisabeth F. Norwood, Thomas C. Bruhn, Marjory Smiley Ryan, Arthur Noel Shaw, Floy Fay Beeman, Lillian C. Davis

Boston, Massachusetts (The Mother Church).

Lecturer: Judge Frederick C. Hill; introduced by Mrs. Elisabeth F. Norwood, who said:—

You have come to this lecture on Christian Science for the purpose of gaining a higher understanding of God. There is no visible thing from which to start, no material basis on which to work to gain this understanding. Honesty of purpose and purity of thought enable one to know God. Our great Master, Christ Jesus, knew more about God and His kingdom than anyone who has ever walked the earth, but the fundamental truth of his teaching was not understood, so that a few centuries after his mission here was finished, the spirit of his teaching was almost wholly lost. However, in 1866, Mary Baker Eddy, who was striving above all else to know the one and only God, discovered the basic law governing the Master's words and works, and being imbued with a sincere love for all mankind, she gave to this world its greatest blessing—Christian Science.
