In our next-door-neighbour village to the west is to be seen the beginning of a very interesting experiment. There are hero the ruins of the No Name temple the founder, some four centuries ago, not feeling sure which god it had better be dedicated to. The ruins and its land —some 30 mow—were offered to one of the missions, but the bait was not swallowed. Advice was freely given, however, that the entire property be converted into a village public school. The advice was accepted and the villagers have alreads taken the first steps toward the carrying out of the plan. They have scoured the larger part of the land and have themselves begun work on the temple compound. One or two swallows of this <ort do not make a spring. especially if the persons who ought to do the spring act prefer another nap, but they may perhaps convince even such persons that the new year edge of winter is not far away.
