 FarIow Talks of Will
 Edward Barlow of the Christian Science publicity committee said today: "The story of the Mary Baker Eddy will which appeared this morning is purely guess work The directors have not looked at the will and when they have anything to make public they have told me they will give it to me that may give it to all the papers.
 "The board of directors has so many more things to attend to that l cannot tell when the will will be read. Up to 10 O clock this morning the document had not been opened.''

 NO anxiety for the future of Chris tian Science or of the mother church in Boston is felt by the directors. While comparatively little has been made pub lie regarding the contents of Mrs. Eddy's will, it will not be found difficult to de- termine what Christian Science stands for, what powers and authority the by laws are intended to give and what the future course and management of the church should be-
