purpose of furthering the teaching work has met with the full approval of
the Guardian. He wishes your Assembly every success in this remarkable and
nation-wide undertaking which you have decided to launch.

[From the Guardian:]

Your letter of June 19, enclosing reports of great interest and value, has
also reached me and I am filled with a sense of happiness and gratitude
for these incessant evidences of your zeal and united endeavours. I am
truly impressed by the sound progress and expansion of the activities in
which the believers of India and Burma are so earnestly and devotedly
engaged. The institutions you have recently initiated, the plan of
teaching you have launched, the degree of unity, of consecration and
solidarity you have attained, the measures for internal consolidation you
have devised, the support you have consistently and cordially extended to
our dear Martha, all proclaim the depth of your devotion and attest the
nobility and staunchness of your faith. The utmost care is now required to
nurse, foster, multiply and coordinate these nascent institutions and
activities. Every nerve should be strained, every sacrifice should be made
to enable them to fructify and prosper.

satisfaction at the success that has attended the N.S.A.'s efforts for the
formation of this first Baha'i Summer School in India--a step which, he
strongly feels, is bound to accelerate the extension of the teaching
activities of the believers in that land.

He is truly delighted to know that the attendance at the school has been
satisfactory, and that the young believers, in particular, have been most
enthusiastic about it. What he feels now is most essential for the N.S.A.
is to make arrangements to have this school held regularly every year, so
that it may develop into an effective, and increasingly vital, instrument
