All its ideals are Christina, and it is an unreasonable system unless you accept a Christian basis for your thought. PRICES Every Western thinker, even those who profese unboliot, has lived in an atmosphere of Christian thought. Shanghai news. paper said the other day that le mauted a Chinese Howard to reform Chinese prisona. Would Howard ever havo reformed the prisons i lys had not been a Christian Would Wilberforcs have freed the slaves if he had been decated at Tokyo or at Shantang Universities ?.
I hear that the prospects of the Hong, kong University speaks o
