Mr. George Shaw Cook, C. S. B., of Chicago, Illinois, has been appointed an Associate Editor of the Christian Science periodicals to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. W. Stuart Booth, who recently became a Trustee of The Christian Science Publishing Society.

He was a member of the Normal Class of the Board of Education of The Mother Church in 1910 and became an authorized teacher of Christian Science. For some years Mr. Cook was Committee on Publication for Illinois, and in 1914 became a member of The Christian Science Board of Lectureship, on which he served until 1925, lecturing in. this country and other countries. Mr. Cook served his branch church, Fifth Church of Christ, Scientist, of Chicago, as First Reader, and in 1929 became First Reader of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, for the regular three-year term. After he had returned to Chicago, he was again called to Boston to teach the Normal Class of the Board of Education in 1934.
