I beg
to inform my beloved members of the Mother Church that the By-law in Article XXVI, of its Manual does not require members of benevolent and progressive organizations, such as the Free Masons, Odd Fellows, temperance societies, and those of similar cult, to resign this membership.
Thanking the courteous Christian Science lunchers for their respectful attention to our denominational By-law on clubs and organizations, I beg to say: Said By-law prohibits neither informal meetings nor luncheons and select, invited guests.
