Presentation of Faets.

Editor of Ligonier Banner: & - - Certain interests, operating under the misleading title, ‘‘Christian Science Committee on Information” have ' heen sending broadcast to newspapers: over the United States alleged news reports of Judge Frederic Dodge's findings in litigation offecting the Christian Church in Boston. This committee has no official connmection with the Christian Science organijzation nor was it authorized by that organization. An article in your issue of June 4 under the caption, “Dodge Report in Christian Science Litigation Filed,” is one of these “reports” and, while having the appearance of a .news item, is evidently sent -out to influence ' public opinion. The real news account of Judge Dodge’s findings was given to the public when the master filed his report on May 24, while the article referred to above, it. will be noted, appeared quite a while after that time. The litigation mentioned is a case brought by Mr. John V., Dittemore contesting ' the right of the Christian Science Board of Directors to dismiss him from the board, a right claimed by the direc: tors as given them by the manual ot the church. o _The report of Judge Dodge is but that of a master appointed by the supreme judicial court of Massa chusetts to hear the evidence and find the facts upon which the court is to pass judgement later, and render a decision - ' The account in question is most unfair in that, while purporting to state ‘or quote the master’s findings as to why the directors voted by resolution to dismiss Mr. Dittemore, it neither states nor gquotes the mas: ter’'s main finding on- this subject. The finding is in paragraph numbered 57 of the master’s report, and states, “I find that the controlling motive which induced its (the resolution of dismissal) adoption by ‘the defendants who voted for it was the desire on their part to remove the obstacle [email protected]?f the plaintiff’s presence on the board to their atter_npt’s to arrange a compromise with the trustees”” The “controlling mo: tive” given by the master, as quoted above, shows clearly that any alleged “hostility” was at least a secondary consideration. Judge Dodg2 emphasized this where he said that the directors “acted the more readily under said eontrolling motive by reason of their willingness to disassociate themselves from .a colleague with whom they could not agree and whom they did. not like”. , ‘The article under consideration ends with a paragraph of propaganda calculated to produce public sentiment against, and indyce a change in the form of church government established by Mrs. Eddy. . That government has been in effective opera tion for a great many years, and has 'always been satisfactory to loyal Christian Scientists. Note *particu - larly that the article hints at estahlishing “a definite rule of rotation in office” and also “a minimizing * * * of the greater centralization of authority in the self perpetuating board of directors and their appointees in Boston.” = These are conditions created and provided' for by Mrs.l Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Christian = Science, in the churea manual, and in her deed of trust establishing and perpetuating the board of directors, and these conditions have been and are' now heing accepted by the members of the Christian Science Church. The duties of all officers and the placing of authority have been most effectually provided for and the Christian Science organization has never failed ‘to grow, de-| velop and prosper under the proper administration of its manual. The_ reference to a so-called “pro - gressive element in the church,” is deceptive and misleading. It is in line with general world conditions wherein, under the name of “proress”, mankind, dissatisfied- with the restrictions of proper government, is endeavoring to overthrow fundamentals and substitute the vagaries of human opinion and personal ambi tion. So it has been with the cause of Christian Science. Ever since the Christian Science Church ' was' or--Banized, there have been, from time to time, vain attempts to disrupt its government, but that splendid institution still stands and will continue undisturbed in its great work of blessing and helping mankind. .

FOUND HAPPINESS IN WORK

Great Writers and Inventors Acted . With Much Wisdom in Refusing ‘ ', to “Rust Qut.” : ~ Examples of long life accompanied by happiness in productive labor are numerous, both in biography and in contemporary life, observes the Yorkshire Post. B. W. Leader died the other' day in his ninety-third year, after joyously producing his type of beauty in landscape art slmost to the last. Edison, our greatest contemporary inventor, passed recently his sev-‘enty-sixth birthday. He was too busy to- pause for congratulations, entirely happy in his research and experiment, finding the days too short for his exacting mind. The old- classical apo--thegm which tells us that they die, young whom the gods love, must be taken with the proverbial grain of salt. Wordsworth in all his verses breathed the atmosphere of contentment and joy, and survived until he was a happy octogenarian, glad in hinise and gladdened by his countless admirers. Tennyson reached eighty-three, borne along as on the crest of a flowing wave of joy, the beating of which can be felt In all his work, even to his rhythmic swan’s song of “The Pilot.” CarIyle died at eighty-six, and, although lone and sad in his closing years, he owed his longevity very largely to the Joy he had cuitlvated in his work for fifty productive years. Sir James Barrfe, in his inimitable rectorial address, recently spoke the truth when he sald that Carlyle’'s misery was an illusion to Carlyle himself and a myth in biography. He was happy in his work with a glow of joy that counteracted the pains of his nervous dyspepsia, and nursed his inherited vitality into continuous strength. .

MIXED IN HIS METAPHORS

Of Course Brown Fully Understood What He Meant to Say, but He Blundered. : - Mr, Brown was calling on an old friend. o i “I ~declare,” he remarked to his friend’s wife, “it quite cures me of homesickness to drop in here and see a ltt'e of your home life—er—ér—not that your home life is anything but the—what I mean to say is that it makes me all the fonder of my own home—or rather, that, on the homeo pathic principle,” a hal» of the dog that bit you—which isn’t, of course, what I mean. But when & man s lonely he can enjoy the society of almost anybody—" : “Sir!” sald the lady, lcily. ; © *“I mean,” returned Mr. Brown, as he mopped the perspiration from his face, “that, be it ever so. humble—no. no, yours is not that—but there’s no, place llke one’s own—but, I mean—well, I must be going! Good day!"— London Tit-Bits. ' !

Stockmen Fight Pests.

Stockmen in the Canadian river district In Texas have shown themselves increasingly in accord with the poisoning methods advocated by the biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture for the extermination of predatory animals, particularly coyotes. In one district, poisoning operations have resulted in a kill estimated as between 75 and 90 per cent- of the coyotes over an area of 2,202 square miles. A border strip five miles wide, and including appreximately 1,200 square miles, was poisoned, with a resultant kill of 25 per cent of the coyotes. In coyote poison-Ing-operations stockmen do not usually spend time hunting dead animals beyond the point where they are convinced of the effectiveness of the method. It is considered more profitable to. devote as much time and energy as possible to covering a wider territomy with poison balts. - ; :

Woman Pirate Achieves Fame.

There recently appeared on the river at Hong-Kong, much to the alarm of . ship owners and their crews, a woman pirate, who has already taken a heavy toll of loot from vessels. Nothing is known of her, except the fact that she speaks English, wears a serge costume and Wellington boots, and carrles a wicked-looking revolver, with ~which she compels her victlms to sur_render. Under her are. a score or more Chinese brigands, who, although they are cut-throats and robbers, obey her tmplieitly. - .. . . .

Owing to the fact that quite a number of our citizens have utterly ignored the request of the' City Council re: garding the sprinkling of streets and lawns, and have in many cases permitted the water to run a greater part of the night ,the waterworks commttee has suggested that the only way to stop the indiscriminate use of water is to prohibit the use of hose entirely. . ' L

It is therefore deemed necessary until further notice to request that all persons refrain from using hose to scrub porches and wash autbs, or for the purpose of sprinkling or spraying streets, laws gardens, shubbery or flowers. 5 ‘ : Any known violation of this order ‘will result in having the water shut off from the premises where it is so ;séd. e ‘ e C.
