United Church Observer,

It is with the keenest interest that I read the United Church Observer, which comes to this office, and I always find in it something refreshing and inspiring. That this appreciation of your official publication is shared by the editors of the Christian Science periodicals is evidenced by the fact that the United Church Observer is one of the publications often quoted in the "Signs of the Times" columns of the Christian Science Sentinel. These columns endeavor to record that which is finest in human thought as gathered from the publications of countries throughout the world.

It was with regret that I saw in a recent issue a reference to Christian Science which left much to be desired. The writer was deprecating the attacks made on established religious bodies by a recently banned religious sect. It would appear, however, that our friend must, by mistake, have dipped his pen into the same acid.

The searchlight of almost unparalleled public interest and scrutiny, turned upon the life of Mrs. Eddy, for a period of many years, has emphasized clearly her deeply spiritual nature, which alone made her great. The nation-wide poll, conducted by the Ladies' Home Journal to determine the twelve women making the most valuable contribution to American progress in the last one hundred years, returned the name of Mary Baker Eddy at the top of the poll.
