Mrs. Bilton and Mrs. Madgett shared readings and com- mentaries on the issue of human rights. They stressed that Jesus made no difference between rich and poor, black and white, and their rights. Then they posed the question, "Do we?", adding that the Golden Rule must be followed by everyone. The speakers said that Christians must use whatever talents they possess for the betterment of mankind because "everyone has a right to be his own person". Mrs. Bilton read an article about a meeting held in Santiago during which people made resolutions toward human rights for all. The worship service closed with prayer and the singing of a hymn.
