[Christian Science program over Station WEAF, New York City, conducted by Mr. Frank Sargent Bartlett, January 4, 1942. Subject: "The Search for Good."]

A Christian Science program was conducted from Station WEAF, New York City, Sunday afternoon, January 4, at 1.15 by Mr. Frank Sargent Bartlett of New York City. This program was given under the auspices of the Committee on Publication for the State of New York and had the approval of The Christian Science Board of Directors. The soloist, Mrs. Helen Young, was assisted by a staff organist.

The program opened with the solo, "The Lord Is My Light," by Frances Allitsen. Then Mr. Bartlett read an address substantially as follows:

The search for good is, and always has been, universal. Everyone is seeking what he believes to be good. He who seeks place, position, power, fame, and fortune, does so because of his belief that they represent or will obtain for him that which he regards as good. Almost everyone is seeking good not only for himself but also for others—for family, friends, group, class, or organization; and this, in a measure, holds true alike for laborer and capitalist, religionist, business man, charity worker, statesman, and everyone else. Each is seeking what he regards as good for himself and for a larger or smaller group of his associates or beneficiaries, in the way that, to him, seems best.
