Here was established tire Raja Yoga schools an Institution which professes to give students an equal balance of mental, physical and spiritual education. As the fame of the school spread the number of students multiplied, and pilgrimages were made to the place from many lands. There were persons who hoped to find in Theosophy relief from the pangs, pains, and doubts of human life. As prosperity grew and children of millionaires and day laborers, of authors, actors, and ministers tolled together, was Increased althe curriculum though It never departed from Its original elemental foundation of hygiene, music, the fine arts, and languages, and, of course, what Is known as common school education was not omitted, although everything was taught with the idea that It was a duty to be joyously and unselfishly entered into. Enter Public Nursery Early. A Spartan element was introduced and a child of the colony, as soon as It conwas able to leave Its mother, signed to the public nursery, where its welfare was looked after by an experienced corps of nurses, physicians, and teachers. The day begins at Point Loma at 6 o'clock; halt an hour later the students repair to the Greek theater for physical exercise, the girls being dressed in white and the boys In white blouses with dark blue trousers. This drilling lasts for about of an hour. Then a breakfast at which milk is largely taken. Is served. During the breakfast as well as at other meals there is music. Indeed, music and dancing form a large part of the Instruction at Point Loma. After breakfast the children and students break up into their various groups for their days instruction and recreation. The little ones are taken bnck to the nursery or to the shore If the weather Is fine, where they are Instructed in animal and plant life; the youths and maidens repair to the Raja Yoga school, while the older students go to Academic Grove to listen to lectures or to debate on philosophical subjects. Luncheon is served at 12, the meal consisting of vegetables and fruit, and after luncheon there are athletic games and music and walk on the shore, and conversations between pupils and teachers. Lights Out at 9:30. A vegetarian dinner Is served at 6, and In the evening there may be a play at the theater or a concert; but by half past nine all lights are put out. and stillness reigns at Point Loma.

Mr. Judge, who was a skillful lawyer, so argued as to place the burden of truth tiKn the Knglish woman. He said: Prove that I have not received communications from the Mahatmas. This, of course, Mrs. liesant could not lo, but she continued to proclaim her leadership, and gathered around her In England a desultory following. When Mr. Judge died, Mrs. Tingley became his successor by a similar token, and her enthusiasm, her charm of address, and her executive ability placed Theosophy upon a broader, more practical, and popular basis than that which had formerly held It. Some 12 years ago Mrs. Tingley acquired a long point of land, called Point lamia. In California, and there established in the New Forest. flout-Sitin- Tingley, High Priestess, Imndon. Mm. Kiuherln.
