We are in receipt of letters which indicate that funds are being raised for the purpose of furnishing a certain Christian Science church with chairs and seats, under the "endless chain" system. The Journal has heretofore spoken in disapproval of such methods, and we hereby again call attention to the fact that from our point of view such methods do not properly belong to Christian Science. We do not doubt the honesty of purpose of those concerned, but we do most seriously question the propriety of such means of securing funds. They can scarcely be said to be in the line of voluntary contributions.
"We again call the attention of the Field to the fact that the Tenets of the Mother Church are not to be published in newspapers or magazines, or otherwise made public, except by special permission of the proper authorities.
What we have said above applies equally to all the writings of the Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy.
