William Carson Blackburn, Committee on Publication for the State of North Carolina,—Burlington

Daily Times-News

Recently there appeared in the columns of your paper an article in which it is alleged that a colored woman, living in Burlington, "practiced a sort of Christian Science on several." Of course, you are glad to give necessary space for the correction of possible misunderstanding on the part of your many interested readers.

An interview by the writer with this woman revealed that she is not a Christian Scientist, and knows nothing whatsoever about the fundamental teachings of Christian Science. She, according to her own statement, attended Christian Science church services in a northern city only a few times, and that some fifteen years ago.

So-called "hexing," bewitchery, or any other form of hypnosis, whether employed ignorantly or maliciously, is no part of and has no relationship to Christian Science. Christian Science is the Christian religion, based wholly on the Bible. It can only bless, as it is based on the Christ, Truth, and practiced in a Christianly scientific manner. For its successful application, one should be imbued with purity, truth, and love, and instructed in the Science of metaphysical healing.
