Dedication: A Centennial Story
History
Mrs. Elizabeth H. Ferree proposes hanging an American flag behind the readers on February 22, 1932, George Washington's 200th birthday, at Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist, Seattle. The Christian Science Board of Directors announce a special church service and lesson sermon for the Washington Centennial: "Love for God and Man, The Universal Ideal." President Herbert Hoover urges Americans to commune with "the spiritual springs of patriotism," and telegraphs a signal to unfurl flags at the opening of the George Washington Memorial Bridge in Seattle. Mr. Albert Eaton Lombard, Committee on Publication, gives a commencement address called "Looking Upward" at the University of Washington in front of a huge American flag. Third Church of Christ, Scientist, Dallas, Texas, builds a new church. Eleventh Church of Christ, Scientist, Seattle, acquires a building site. Mrs. Hawley at Fourth Church and Eleventh Church write to Boston about using the national anthem at church services.
