Allen of Tor- onto, Canada, under auspices of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Winnetka. Mr. Gavin is a member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. How did this great Christian Sci- ence movement begin? When did it start? What brought it about? It is very difficult to point to a specific moment and state definitely that then and there this movement had its birth. Mrs. Eddy has told us (Science and Health, P. 107) that she "discovered the Christ Science or divine laws of Life, Truth, and Love" in 1866, but she has told us also that God had been preparing her during many years for the reception of that revelation. There is, however, an incident which occurred early in 1866, an incident that was recorded in the public press of that day, which was outstanding in the inception of this movement. On Saturday, February 3, 1866, the Reporter, a newspaper of Lynn, Mass., contained a news item concerning Mrs. Eddy which stated: that she fell upon the icy street on the evening of hursday, February 1, and was severely injured; that the doctor who was called found her injuries to be internal and of a severe nature, and that she was removed to her home the following day, though in a very critical condition. After the doctor's departure on Friday she refused to take his medicine and, as she later expressed it, lifted her heart to God. It was natural, perfectly natural, that a woman who had been from her very childhood deeply religious should, in her extremity, turn to God. So on Sunday she called for her Bible and began reading the account of the healing, by Jesus, of the palsied man, and as she read a great spiritual experience was hers, the realization then and there of the presence and power of God. In that moment all pain vanished. She rose from her bed, dressed, and walked tnto the parlor where her clergyman and a few friends were sitting--friends who had withdrawn but a few moments before from what they supposed was her death chamber. In that moment Mrs. Eddy did more than expenience a cure; she received a revelation for which she had been fitting herself all her life. But to be healed herself was not enough. She must know the Science of this healing in order that others might be healed. For three years, Mrs. Eddy says, she "sought the solution of this problem of Mind- healing, searched the Scriptures and read little else, kept aloof from so- ciety, and devoted time and energies to discovering a positive rule" (Science and Health, p. 109). She discovered the long-lost Science of healing, and submitted it to the very broadest prac- tical tests in the healing of disease of every kind for nine years before writ- ing the Christian Sciene textbook. She proved that there is a Science of healing that is applicable to every hu- man need. Nine Contagious Cases Here During September Nine cases of communicable diseas- es were recorded in Winnetka during the month of September, according to the report for that period made to the Village council Tuesday evening by Health Officer H. A. Orvis. There were three of whooping cough; one of chicken-pox and five of mumps. Dr. Orvis further reported that at the date his report was compiled there were only five cases under quarantine in the village, and that all of these were those of whooping cough.
