On November 7, 1901, our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, returned to the Board of Trustees of The Christian Science Publishing Society correspondence regarding a printout of the Bible references from the Lesson-Sermon being published by a Chicago firm. Attached to it, in the handwriting of one of Mrs. Eddy's secretaries, we find this instruction regarding the correspondence: "You can file the same away in the Archives for future reference." Apparently Mrs. Eddy knew the question of printouts might come again. She had made her decision and wanted a permanent record of it.
The correspondence reveals that Mrs. Eddy, herself, approved a notice for the Christian Science Sentinel that appeared October 24, 1901, as follows:
The Bible Lessons.
