He was particularly glad to learn that some of our Indian
friends have encouraged you to start a fortnightly paper on the
Cause. The idea is, undoubtedly, most genuine and meets with
our Guardian’s wholehearted approval. He wishes you, however,
not to act hurriedly, to take all the necessary steps which
can insure its safety and development. Such projects are not so
easy to carry out, especially in these days when the economic
crisis is getting so acute. At any rate, if you find that your
financial conditions allow you to undertake such an important
work, you should persevere in your efforts and try to make your
paper an indispensable adjunct to the teaching activities of the
friends.

The Guardian hopes that you will be more successful in
this, your second attempt. The unexpected death of the ‘Baha’i
Weekly’, he feels, had badly affected the prestige of the Cause.
It is hoped that your new fortnightly paper will enable all to
appreciate more adequately the divine potency with which it is
endowed.

Mrs. Keith Ransom-Kehler, who has been doing such a fine
work in Persia, is planning to leave for India at the beginning of
winter. Her presence among you will be certainly appreciated.
She is such a wonderful soul, so devoted, so active and so capable.
The Guardian hopes that you will make the utmost use of
her stay in India.

Your unswerving loyalty and inflexible resolve to carry on
the work you have so nobly initiated are indeed worthy of
the highest praise. I will pray for your success and the
steady and uninterrupted progress of your activities whenever
I lay my head on the sacred Threshold and will supplicate
for you all the strength and guidance you need for the
prosecution of your task. The friends in India and Burma
should bestir themselves and, under the guidance and by the
aid of the National Assembly prepare the way for the forthcoming
visit of our able and brilliant international teacher
Mrs. Kehler. May the Lord sustain and guide them in their
endeavours and reward them for their acts of self-sacrifice in
His Path.
