WORLD—WORK

WE read on page 559 of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, "The 'still, small voice' of scientific thought reaches over continent and ocean to the globe's remotest bound.

"DESPISE NOT ONE OF THESE LITTLE ONES"

JESUS said, "Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones. " The teachings of Christianity came like a gleam of light and love into the lives of some of the slaves of ancient Rome.

ROUSE , ye soldiers of the cross! " Here is an order for the Christian Scientist. God has called us, individually, to be obedient to His law.

THE LESSON-SERMON

FOR some years a student of Christian Science has found much joy in the realization that each By-Law in the Manual of The Mother Church can be profitably read and studied by every member of The Mother Church or of a branch church. One is apt to regard a By-Law as applying merely to the governing or business arrangement of the work of whatever board or committee is taking care of a particular activity.
