The attendance at the monthly meetings of this association has been steadily increasing; and on Wednesday, November 7, there were present a larger number of the members than had attended any previous meeting for several months. Many participated in the discussion of the topic for the afternoon; and from the general tone of the remarks it was evident that those who spoke thought that the Demand of the Hour, upon Christian Scientists, was for greater activity in meeting error in its malicious forms. Some of the speakers gave their experience in overcoming this form of sin, and their complete victory, whenever they met it Scientifically.
The remarks of our Teacher, whose words are always so encouraging and instructive, seemed especially so on this subject. She uncovered the secret workings of sin, showed its evil intent, and instructed the students how to detect the influence of malicious minds, the antidote for which is Love; for from those who seek God's guidance, sin can not hide its wicked design, thus confirming the saying of our Master: "For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed, or hid, that shall not be known."
At the close, many said this was one of the best meetings they had ever attended. This was the second Association meeting held in our new apartment, in Hotel Boylston.
