THE CHURCH IN OKLAHOMA

From the March 1896 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Dear Journal: It will be necessary perhaps, to explain how I came to receive the enclosed letter from Mr. Farlow,— it is as follows. As I read the article in the September Journal entitled "Works as well as words," I thought how good and helpful! The first time I met some of our students I referred to this article and spoke of the propriety of having it read some time when we were all together, because many of our Scientists are not awake to the need of, and do not take the Journal, and you see I wanted all to catch the helpful inspiration of this demonstration, principally because we as a C. S. Church needed to make a financial demonstration; after I had mentioned having the article read, one student said, "Some folks think if one is worth five or six thousand dollars they are poor, I suppose it was that kind of poor people that builded that church." This led me to write to Mr. Farlow, and brought from him the following letter which you are at liberty to publish if you wish.

430 X. Y. Life Building.
Kansas City, Oct. 21, 1895.

Dear Sister—I do not know that I could say more than I wrote in the article for the Journal.
