The Christian Scientists of this city and surrounding towns met in the Tootle Theatre on Sunday and Monday with a large attendance, it being the occasion of the quarterly communion service and meeting of the St. Joseph Students' Christian Science Association.
The stage being ornamented with flowers and ferns, presented a beautiful appearance, and the service was impressive throughout. At the meeting of the Association, after the reading of the minutes of last meeting and reports of officers, followed by reports from the field, all of which were of the most encouraging nature, showing the growth of the cause, a stirring address was given by the president.
The meeting closed with the presentation by the students to Mr. C. M. Howe, their teacher and president of the Association, of a beautiful clock of the latest and most elaborate design; also a fine leather-bound Holman Bible of the finest make, and from one student a costly solitaire diamond ring, as a token of their esteem and regard, which was responded to with brief and appropriate remarks, after which the meeting adjourned.—St. Joseph Herald.
