Observations on Church Attendance and Christian Science
The writer notes Washington Catholic and Protestant churches filled at the same hour while Protestant services lag. He praises Christian Science for music, readers, and inclusive congregational singing, and observes generous offerings totaling around a hundred dollars. The piece suggests Christian Science blends Quakerism and Spiritualism with Mary Baker Eddy once linked to spiritualism.
