Magazine of the Shrine Association. A national magazine of the Shinto priesthood in prewar Japan. It was an important medium of instruction for local Shinto priests attempting, for example through outreach activities to schools and youth organisations, to integrate Shinto ritual with attitudes of respect for the emperor and to manage changes such as those brought about by the largely unpopular shrine mergers (jinja gappei).
