Christian Scientist Association.— The May meeting of the association was well attended.
Mission work among the self-respecting poor, to be accompanied by a Christian Science Healing Dispensary, was the subject discussed— after transaction of the routine business— by many speakers. It was agreed that the time had come when Christian Scientists should open up new and broader channels of usefulness, and it was believed that missions like the one named above is one of the demands of the hour. The establishment of suitable places where the poor can receive the benefits of Christian Science Healing is a work that should have the active co-operation of every lover of Science. In this way it is believed that thousands may be reached and be brought to a knowledge of the Truth, who otherwise might be deprived of an opportunity for a long time.
That it is a "Divine Mission," none will doubt, nor that its establishment now is a necessity. Self-denial is the first proof of our love for others, and whenever Christian Scientists present this proof in their lives and actions, the cause advances a pace. To-day the cause of Christian Science is spreading faster than ever before, still there is need of unceasing watchfulness, and untiring effort to meet the demands of the hour.
