Some years before my family began...

Some years before my family began the study of Christian Science, I had been provided by a well-known eye hospital with glasses for an astigmatic condition.

After attending the Christian Science Sunday School for several months, I decided to become a Christian Scientist and wished to lay aside the glasses. An appointment was made with a practitioner, who asked me to study pages 390 to 420 in Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy. I remember her telling me that if I would always look for only what God makes, I should have no trouble seeing it.

When I returned home, my parents gave me permission to remove the glasses, and I have never worn them again. Since that time my eyes have passed rigorous military examinations and have served through graduate work, which often required eight hours of uninterrupted reading. I now teach, and I read without discomfort the highly individual handwriting of the students.
