MOTHER CHURCH
Mrs. StetSon, Christian Scien-
tiSt Leader, Explains Her
Position to the Public.
MANNER OF TALKING
Is VERY WEIRD

Denies That She Ever ForeswOre the
Principles of Mother Church and
Claims She Did Not Invoke Evil on
Certain Persons by Power OF
Neutrality-suspicious. Difference BE.
tween Mental Malpractice and Self
defense.
New York, Nov. 7.-Annoyonce at
head line in morning paper
which said; Mrs. Stetson's follow
ers defy the Mother Church." yester-
day, prompted Mrs. Augusta F. Stet-
son, the former first reader of the
First Church of Christ, Scientist, to
write her own newspaper story and
her own headlines. The latter read.
"NIrs. ,stetson's 1answer-Declares
her loyalty to the Mother Church
Emphatically denies Mr.. Strickler's
interpretations of her teachings"
These captions appeared upon a
four page typewriter statement
which Mrs. Stetson's secretary dis
tributed last night in her home on
Central Park, West, adjoining the
church of which she was the recent
leader. From that position she was
deposed because of alleged mental
malpractice" OF this charge she was
acquitted by board of inquiry, and
the verdict of exoneration was en-
dorsed last week by the congregation
OF the church, but the controversy
continues.
Mrs. Stetson reaffirms her allegi-
ance to the mother church in the fol-
lowing words:
Does Not Deny Mother Church.
81 wish to state here most en-
phatically that | do not deny the

Answering the charges that she had
attempted to invoke evil by thought
upon the heads of certain persons,
She says of Virgil o. Strickler, the
present first reader and her oppon-
ent:
81 was surprised that he (Strick-
ler) seemingly could not grasp the
points that there is a
difference between mental malprac-
tice and self defense. l will give as

lection; il l felt sure that l was be-
