Ralph B. Scholfield, C. S. B., of London, England, who was re-elected to The Christian Science Board of Lectureship on September 13, has been actively engaged in the public practice of Christian Science and in various positions in the movement since 1919. He was born in England and received his early education at Eton College, later taking a course in military training in contemplation of an army career. His family had for years been earnest students of Christian Science, and while at school he was healed through Christian Science of a severe illness, which led to his further investigation and study of this religion. After finishing his eduction, he went into business with the insurance firm, Lloyd's of London.

Mr. Scholfield served his country as Captain during the World War in a British Infantry Regiment in Belgium and France. Since 1919 he has devoted his entire time to Christian Science work.

He was first elected to The Christian Science Board of Lectureship in 1930. His lecture tours included many countries, among them Australia, New Zealand, South and East Africa. In 1935 he was elected by The Christian Science Board of Directors to fill the position of First Reader of The Mother Church, which duty he assumed in June, 1935. In 1937 he was a member of the Normal class in the Board of Education, and became a teacher of Christian Science. After serving the regular three-years term as First Reader in The Mother Church, he returned to London to take up his work as teacher and practitioner of Christian Science.
