Love and Fruitage

A man came into the Reading Room and asked to see "the key book to the Bible." He said that he had heard it advertised on the radio and felt that it was just what he needed and, in fact, what the whole world needed. When the librarian showed him the different editions of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, he opened one of them and read aloud the second paragraph of the first page of the Preface, and then stated: "This is just what I have been looking for. I have always felt in my heart that God is Principle, Love; now I am sure that this book will make the truth clear to me. What we all need is more love in our living." He expressed much gratitude for the Reading Room, where, he discovered, he could purchase authorized Christian Science books and literature.

We decided to have open house in our Reading Room on three consecutive Tuesday nights in order to acquaint our church members and friends with Reading Room privileges. We invited the Chairmen of the Literature Distribution and Circulation committees to contribute display tables and to be present to explain their work. A hostess was in charge of our loan library and another was on duty in the study room to explain the use of the bound volumes. Concordances, and Lesson-Sermon.
