for Emeritus of the names of candidates for Readers before they are elected, and if she objects to the nomination, said candidates shall not be chosen." Is that an election--by the Board?
Thus far I have not been able to find out what that Board of Spectres is for.

It certainly has no real function, no duty which the hired girl could not perform, no office beyond the mere recording of the autocrat's decrees.
There are no dangerously long office-terms in Mrs.Eddy's government.
The Readers are elected for but one year.

This insures their subserviency to their proprietor.
Readers are not allowed to copy out passages and read them from the manuscript in the pulpit; they must read from Mrs.Eddy's book itself.
She is right.

Slight changes could be slyly made, repeated, and in time get acceptance with congregations.

Branch sects could grow out of these practices.
