I cannot delay further to show my appreciation of Christian Science and of its Discoverer and Founder, Mary Baker Eddy, the God-appointed revelator of the truth to this age.
At the age of eight I was enrolled in a Christian Science Sunday School, where the fundamental truths of this religion were implanted in my consciousness, and they have never left it. Nevertheless, as I grew older and was associated more and more with young people who were not Christian Scientists, I drifted away from my early teachings and wanted to be sure I did not appear different from the crowd.
Nearly everyone I knew indulged in cigarette smoking and social drinking; so I did the same. It was not until after I had left college and had entered the business world that I had an experience which was to make me an earnest student of Christian Science.
