Clifford P. Smith, Committee on Publication for The Mother Church,
The account in your issue of January 2 of the proceedings in the district court at Framingham, Massachusetts, against Henry Moyse of Wayland, for providing Christian Science practice rather than medical practice for his fourteen-year-old boy, was mistaken in at least one important particular.
Many
students of Christian Science seem to be battling with a "protracted demonstration," laboring under a burden of difficulties which are at once elusive and tenacious, while making a sincere search within and without to find the cause of their plight.
Beauty,
plenty, harmony, love, are divinely natural expressions of Life; and it is possible for these qualities to be brought out most richly in all true existence.
S. Britton R. Foster, Committee on Publication for Ontario, Canada
Your issue of recent date contains an article in which faith cures were fairly and tolerantly commented upon, but in which an erroneous impression was given of Christian Science, which requires correction.
How generally does the thought of satisfactory reward present itself to mankind; yet how often do men let their desire for reward hinder their attainment of it! Many a time have they given so much attention to the good they have hoped to receive that they have failed to perform that which would have insured their gaining such good.
