Boston, Massachusetts (The Mother Church).

Lecturer: Hon. William E. Brown; introduced by Miss Lucia C. Coulson, who said:—

There is a current belief among many people that worldliness and the things of this world are attractive, and that spirituality and the things of Spirit are dull and difficult; yet the whole of history contradicts this. When the Nazarene, learned in the things of Spirit, spoke, "they trode one upon another" to hear him. Earnest seekers for Truth's healing power took off part of the roof on one occasion to find access to him, and others went for days without food, until they were faint with hunger, that they might not miss his words. Later, when the fire of spiritual inspiration lighted the consciousness of Peter and the other disciples, a multitude came together to listen; and we are told that three thousand souls were added to the church in that one day. So it has been down through the ages whenever a spiritual seer has arisen.
