W. W. Heady was a Commemoration service for the famous missionary, Dr. Robert Morrison.
"The chief speaker for the week is Dr. Mellenbruch, followed by the Rev. Reichelt, the well-known Norwegian Missionary to Buddhists, who has made a very thorough study of ithe different branches of Buddhism rroughout China. He has pointed cent that though the temples are in Secay and destroyed in many places, Jand the priests on the decline, yel there is a distinct revival of Budde hiiism amongst the gaiety and that new leaders are springing up who are very influential and are proving to be lea ders of the younger generation. He! advised foreign missionaries to become. better acquainted with the movement, as there is deep longing] feoming over the people for a deeper religious life and greater light.
Pastor Reichelt's addresses are well thought out, and show that he knows Jhis subject, though many may disagree with his interpretation. He fo continue his addresses on Buddhiiism at the Summer School next week and we venture to predict there will be a big attendance.
