BUDDHA IN PLACE OF GOD
Eastern Leaders Shrewd Attempt to
Stem the Onward March of Chris
tianity In East.

Yamanaka was q strong Buddhist
and a leader in the movement to re-
vive and reform Buddhism and estab-
llsh 1t as bulwark against the rapid
encroachment of Christianity.
He decided an excellent way to do
this was to found a school for girls
which would be more attractive than
the Christian womens. So he erected
fine buildings and Installed modern
methods. He hired good teachers. All
the paraphernalla Of the best western
schools was taken over. In fact, the
curriculum was about as close as it
could be to that Of the Christian school
not far away. Buddhism was prom
inent feature of the institution--not
the old-fashioned Buddhism, but the
new form which has borrowed from
Christianity, even down to the Sunday
school hymns. The girls were taught
to sing the famous old Christian
hymns with only the word Buddha sub
stituted for that of Christ.
