`First, this word from our sponsor . . .'

Ray: Now . . . an important message from the makers of Einbinder Flypaper. Friends -- despite our rigid quality control system at the Einbinder factory, several thousand rolls of flypaper have been released to the public with stickum that could become defective under certain conditions. Bob: If you've bought flypaper recently that bears the manufacturer's code number 3-8-2-9-3 . . . or 3-8-2-9-4 . . . return it to the plant for new stickum at once. And while you're waiting for it to be returned to you -- better protect your family by going out and buying some new flypaper. Ray: When you do, be sure you insist on genuine Einbinder . . . the brand you're gradually grown to trust over the course of three generations. -- From `The New! Improved! Bob & Ray Book'

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
