schools here one similar to a Collegiate Institute with an attendance of GOO students and another school of lower grade called a middle school with an attend ance of nearly 100 These students are all boys and young men and there are but or of the 1600- who are Christians There is also a Normal school here with oyer in attend ance of which number there are not more than two professing Christians Then there are the primary schools in addition to the above In the Guardian of Jan thero was an excellent paper by Rev Takagi upon the Recent Anti- Christian Movement in Japan which you all read It gave some idea of the difficulties of Christianity in Japan In this city alone are over Buddhist and Temples some of hem very large and having many priests attached One large Temple has over priests at tached to it Of course tfcey are to actively oppose Christianity and yet strange as it seems spent most of the day in a Buddhist Temple on Saturday March upon the invitation of the High Priest His oldest son is one of my students and has Buddhism for Christianity The Priest his father invited Misses and tbe two M workers here Mr McKenzie and myself to see a ceremony and partake He thanked us for kind ness shown and help given to his son showed us some of his most ancient and rarest gifts gave us each a keep- and invited us to come again The following Monday I sent him some tracts by his son Yesterday his son told me that his father wanted to see me and ask me many questions I have an invitation to visit another Buddhist Temple next week and see a ceremony The Priests son referred to above said to me before I was invited to the feast that his fath er would very much like to see me and talk with me but he knew that wo Christians disliked him and did not care to talk with a Buddhist Priest I told him to assure his father that we did not dislike him and that I was willing to talk to any person in the world and would be glad to talk with his father I suppose you are all rolling up your sleeves so to speak in order to roll up an overwhelming majority for Prohibition when the Plebiscite is taken If I could be in two places at a time I should like to be over there for a short time to help but my work is here and your active duty there and I feel sure that every Leaguer will give a good account of himself and herself in the Campaign As I read Rev Principal Grants letter and the ac count of his debate against prohibition I was pained by the thought that per haps the Devils best strokes are de livered by thoee who are on the Lords side We have lamentable evidence of that here in Japan Some of the most active Propagandists of the Japanese Doctrine or New Shin- toism called Nippon renegade Christiana Mr Takagi spoke of this movement in the paper above mentioned I have been told that some of these very men who are now opposing Christianity so vigor ously were educated in Mission schools Another thing that has pained me very much is that some foreigners oven commend the licensing of prosti tution as done in this country Since I came here there has been a discussion in some Newspapers on this way of suppressing this evil and strange to say some of the very ar guments used by Dr Grant against prohibition of the liquor traffic were trotted out here in support of a sys tem of prostitution legalized by Gov ernment sanction in the form of license Let us always remember that God is on the Side of Right whether or no it be expedient and popular and also that Right as an adjective or noun either does not admit of comparison I rejoice with you that you are be ing blessed and achieving desirable results in the various departments of League work but most of all in that souls have been saved during the past winter My prayer is that each League in the district may enjoy a rich blessing and be the means of bringing many to Christ and that each one may realize the Presence of Him who said to His followers I will not leave thee no neither will I forsake thee no never Yours in the service CO CO CO CO CO A painful accident took place on Saturday last at the residence of Mr Windott in the of Mr is having a house erected and Cameron and Martin masons were on the
