Dear Sir:—If a person in a Christian Science h fainted away and fell to the floor, as “ated recently in an article entitled “The De- cy in Anxiety,” and “several people looked sound but no one offered to help,’ these people xere acting contrary not only to the teaching of Christian Science but of common decency. Christian Scientists are not as a rule lacking a sense of humor, nor do they object to a joke even at their own expense, but the fetsistent habit of willful and malicious misrep- resentation expressed in statements such as the ¢ are unworthy of a publication of the stand- ing of Lire. To a sick man disease is far from imagination or “an error of mortal mind,” and > rational Christian Scientist would be guilty «withholding from such a one the utmost ten- Jerness and consideration. I hope Lire will admit this communication to their columns. Very respectfully, J. V. Divresore, Garistian Science Committee on Publication for the State of New York. Naw York, April 1, 1909.
