EDITOR'S NOTE BOOK

From the December 1889 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The Journal will in its future issues be edited in its several departments by different individuals. There are several reasons for this. Since the Journal has become the official periodical of national, Science interests, and with the plans now in course of realization for making it more completely representative of these, it requires either the absolute devotion of one editor, or the collaboration of several. Mr. Bailey has been for several months engaged partially in work in the field—healing and teaching,—and desires to continue thus. It is perhaps questionable whether one could, or ought, to edit a journal of Christian Science without being a worker in the field of demonstration. Certainly one who feels the call to such work should not be required to give it up. Mr. Bailey will, therefore, in future write the Editor's Note Book, and perform certain other duties, and the other editorial work will be done by persons designated for it, all working together for one result.

The correspondence of the editorial department of the Journal has greatly increased since its transfer to the National Association. But it ought to be greatly larger; workers in different fields should report regularly what is passing, in the phases that are of significance and value, and their letters will be acknowledged. Keep in mind it is movements of thought that are of interest in Science,—not movements and doings of persons. We must grow in all our activities to recognize that all is Mind, and instead of the visible, so-called fact, regard more the invisible.
