An event OF unusual interest 10
Christian Scientists occurred at Con.
cord, N. H.. July IL. An invitation
was sent to all Christian Scientists
to participate in the dedication OF a
newly completed ediflce which is the
gift Of Mrs. Eddy to the members OF
her home church. Many Christian
Scientists were present and special
trains were run from New York and
Boston. Services were held at half
past ten a. m. three In the after
noon and half-past seven p. m. Al
each OF these a message from the
leader was read.
The cost OF the building has exceed
ed 5000, 900. OF which Mrs. Eddy con-
tributed large proportion. Unsolic-
tied donations from other Christian
Science churches swelied the original
estimate Of $4,000 to the present
amount.
The architecture OF the building is
Italian Gothic and the exterior Is of
rock-faced Concord granite. The
stone tower Is surmounted with a
lantern which rises to height Of 165
feet and forms landmark to the
surrounding country. The designs
were prepared by Messrs. Allen e.
Collins OF Boston.
The seating capacity OF the audi
forum is about one thousand, and
the quarted oak pews are a gift from
the six Christian Science churches Of
Chicago. The interior decoration is
quiet and attractive. and on the walls
there are several Bible texts and quo.
tations from the Christian Science
text book.
1t has always been Mrs. Eddy's
wish that the home church should
represent the labor and material Of
Concord itself. This city Is famous
