Dr Bone and staff passed through Dunedin on Thursday on their way to Lake Wakatipu. It is the purpose of Dr Bone to build and establish an institution there where tlie beliefs and principles of the Higher Thought Society (Inc.) of New Zealand will be taught by a coinpetent corps of instructors. Dr Bone indignantly denied the authorship or knowledge of an article purporting to come from him and given wide circulation throughout the Dominion, in which it was stated that he purposed founding a monastery, with himself as abbott and a staff of prophets, priests, and priestesses. He stated that the adherents of higher thought principles had reached such numbers in New Zealand as to justify the establishment of such an institution, founded and conducted on the lines of all other lawfully organised institutions having truth, morality, and God as their foundation stones.
