Notes

Roughly 33 pages per issue at some points, over 60 pages at others. Run by Taiwanese. Started in Chinese. Articles on scripture, faith, practice, poetry. It became bilingual Chinese-Japanese in July, 1936. By 1937, it had become heavily pro-Emperor and the Chinese content was almost completely removed, with only a few poems in Chinese being published.

MFQ has over 200 issues. Looks fairly complete.
