CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
REPLY TO THE BISHOP
Says Cathedral Members Have
Personally Apologized for
His Utterances.

Editor Advcrtisor;-The Bishop of
Honolulu, in his annual address, dcliv-
cred May Is, after disparaging in his
usual naive manner various movements
and organizations which have had the
temcrity to come into existence with
out his permission and to remain with
out his consent, gave utterance to Ger.
tain statements relative to Christian
Science and its founder which require
corrections; not so, much for the pur-
pose of cniightening the Bishop, which
would be hopeless undertaking, as to
inform those who may possibly have
been influenced by his unfoundcd as
sertions. .Rr
The Bishop is reported to have said
that Doctor Carroll, who is in charge
of the government census of religions,
"makes Christian Science churches to
have $1,000 members, and found them
to have gained none whatever last
year. Fortunately, Christian Science
is not dependent for its actual mem
bership upon the ''making'' of Doctor
Carroll. of whom, however, ! make no
criticism, rs his report was simply
twisted by the Bishop to suit his needs.
