Items of Interest

An accepted applicant for the Sanatorium of The Christian Science Benevolent Association at Chestnut Hill had been suffering from neuritis when she started her journey to the Sanatorium. She writes: "After riding all day in a bus in a heavy snow storm, I was able to sleep all night and get up and use both arms the next morning. I knew I would not take any belief of suffering in there with me, and I didn't; but I surely enjoyed the restful two weeks I spent with you.

"I was a Christian Scientist while our dear Leader was still with us, and the place just rang with the fulfillment of her desire to help humanity. ... I also appreciate your making it possible for me to visit you for the amount my husband felt able to pay, but I am longing for the day when I may be able to return the benevolence that was extended to me. I shall always remember those two weeks as a glimpse of real heaven with the simple, loving spirit of our dear Leader brooding over her fledglings."
