Items of Interest

In October last a letter was sent from the Manager of Committees on Publication to all Committees in the various states and countries, announcing the availability of three electrical transcriptions for radiocasting purposes. The result is that there have been about one hundred and twenty-five radiocasts of these transcriptions, which have been pronounced quite successful in that they have helped to make Christian Scientists more appreciative of Christian Science radiocasts, and have interested many who are not Christian Science in such important facts as these: that Christian Science is based on the Bible, and that Mrs. Eddy's principal book, Science and Health, used as a companion textbook to the Bible in Christian Science services, is a "key" to the Scriptures.

In an interview which Mrs. Eddy gave the New York Herald in 1901, and which is reprinted in "The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany" (pp. 341–346), the interviewer asked about her attitude regarding "the pursuit of modern material inventions," and she answered: "Oh, we cannot oppose them. They all tend to newer, finer, more etherealized ways of living. They seek the finer essences. They light the way to the Church of Christ. We use them, we make them our figures of speech. They are preparing the way for us."
