nature and attended by scenes of pop

were entertained on a trip about the
beautiful inland sea of Japan, the ex-

pecially chartered for the occasion.
Returning the party visited the dock
yards and many large industrial
plants near this city. At night the
feature OF the entertainment was a

the world is the average of individual
comfort and material well-being as
high as in our fortunate land.
For the very reason that in ma
terial well being we have thus
abounded, we owe to the Almighty
to show equal progress in moral and
spiritual things. With a nation, as
with the individuals who make up a
nation, material well-being is an indis-
pensable foundation. But the founda-
tion avails nothing by itself That life
