TARGET OUT OF RANGE

L. IVIMY GWALTER

A Practitioner of Christian Science was called to the home of one in distress. The sufferer was a Reader in a branch Church of Christ, Scientist. She was convinced that because of this she was a target for mortal mind's hatred of Truth. The practitioner seemed unable to persuade the patient otherwise. Finally the practitioner said: "Well, if you will be a target, be one. But, for goodness' sake, be a target out of range."

A target out of range! What vistas this opens. To be out of range is to be out of reach, beyond the limited shafts of the aggressor. The bird has but to spread its wings and mount to azure heights to be beyond the range of the sharpshooter.
