The sole reason for this step was that the paper took too much of my time. For the warm "words of commendation which have come te> us from many of our subscribers; for the uniform courtesy, kindliness and abil ty with which my editorial colleague has worked with me during the past two years; f6r the generous financial support which has been given the paper by the business men of Honolulu; and for the kind words about 'The Friend which have appeartd in the columns of the secular journals of this city, I wish to express my thanks and due appreciation. I hope that, with Mr. Oggel as Editoi, tinder the new business manager, The Friend will find increase of favor with the people of Hawaii nei. With kindest regard, J. A. Cruzan. Honolulu, H. I. At Mr. Cruzan's retirement from The Friend, it is pleasant to testify to the cordial relations that have existed between us these past two years. Also, that under his careful and efficient management thepaper has easily made its way financially. And further, that our readers will not be altogether deprived of the benefit of his pen, as the monthly record of the Fort-St. Church will appear regularly as heretofore. And this leads us to s;iy, that were it only for this monthly record of ourchurches it would pay every one of our members to take The Friend. We send the January number of the paper to every household in the Fort-St. and Bethel Union Churches, hoping with the opening year to add many new subscribers to our list. Let it be remembered that The Friend is the oldest published newspaper in the Pacific. Its publication was begun in January, 1843, and its memorable past is inseparably linked with the honored name of Dr. Samuel Chenery Damon. We JANUARY, 1887.

We should make the most of every year that is given us in better resolutions and nobler actions. To this we should be stimulated by the example of Him, Who lived, labored and died for others. Moving amid the varied sufferings of men, He bore their griefs and carried their sorrows. And He expects of us, not a cloistered seclusion, but a going out among the sinning and suffering, and that by His help we shall make the moral atmosphere around us purer, healthier and happier.

'The congregation numbers probably over 3000. 'The attendance at morning service however rarely exceeds 500. Services are held every Sunday morning at the Kawaiahao Church. In the evening the congregation 01 Kan makapili and Kawaiahao are united, holding services in the two Churches on alternate Sundays. Kawaiahao Church also holds a regular Wednesday evening prayer meeting, which is held in the basement room. 'The first Monday evening of each month a monthly concert of prayer for missions is also held. 'The Church sustains a young people's association, holding meetings once each month and which is doing active Christian work. Besides this, workers arc sent out every Sunday afternoon who hold meetings, with preaching generally, in from 9 to 10 outlying districts, the people of which reside so fat away as io make it inconvenient if not impracticable for them to attend the central Church. Every 'Thursday at 10 in the morning, a meeting presided over by the pastor is held in one of the districts or apanas. Friday afternoons at three o'clock the women hold a prayer meeting Kawaiahao Church. Besides this, other meetings are from time to time held and active work is done in the temperance cause. The Church contributes about $;iio per annum to foreign missions, besides raising other funds for pastor's salary, Church expenses, the poor, etc. Kawaiahao Sunday School numbers 4 officers, about 23 teachers and has an average attendance of 294 at the 10 o'clock Sunday morning session at Kawaiahao Church. A teachers' meeting is held every Friday evening.

The last Sunday of each quarter is given up to a union exercise of all of the Sunday Schools held at Kawaiahao Church at 10 in the morning, sometimes taking three hours, and a Christmas feather ahaaina is given each year to all of the Sunday Schools connected with the Church. The outlook for the year 1887 is encot raging. w. R. Castle. Honolulu, Dec. 30, 1886. FORT ST. CHURCH. One year ago, the 30th of Nov., the "Morning Star" sailed from Honolulu, with Mr. Chares Lewis, a much-esteemed member of Fort St Church, as engineer, and Miss Lucy Wetmoie, of the Foreign Church, Hilo, asdelegale from the Woman's Board. 'They found the voyage so peas ant that ere it terminated they decided to make the iccaineler of life's voyage together. And so, just one year from the date of the sailing of the "Star," they were united in marriage, by the Pastor of the Foreign Church, Key. E. P. Baker, at thi! residence of Dr. Wttmore, in Hilo. And Fort-St. Church joins with the Hilo Church in wishing these happily mated yourg Christians a long, happy, and tseful married life.

Mr. John Keltn, a member of the Church, has been engaged for some time on Sunday afternoon in visiting seamen on the vessels in the harbor. lie reports to us, at the close of the year, that he has visited on an average five vessels each Sabbath and distributed tracts, sermons and othei rohgious literature among the sailors.

( Delivered at Hile, Hawaii, Nov. 7, 18S6, and published by request.) Microscopic Islands is a name not inaptly applied to Micronesia, as you will all say when you attempt to find them on ordinary maps. 'The term Micronesia is now used to denote the western islands of the North Pacific Ocean. Small as these islands arc, it is necessary, in describing them, to divide them into volcanic and coral islands. When we make this division, we must bear in mind that the former, though volcanic, are '■ more or less fringed with coral reefs," and even have barrier reefs, "a sort of submarine rampart " of coral, enclosing their lagoons, with here and there a volcanic or coral islet intervening to complete the boundary line. Rev. S. J. Whitmee says that " the volcanic islands, with the exception of the Hawaiian Archipelago, are all south of the equator." He makes three or four exceptions, evidently including among them Ponape, Kusaie, and Ruk or Hogolu as it is sometimes called. Micronesia forms a very important portion of what is called the " Atoll Valley." Southward of this valley is located the Ridge," which is about " Great Volcanic and 6o« miles wide 4,000 miles long, while the "Atoll Valley" is 1,200 miles wide and 6,000 miles long. The common pictures of Atolls and Lagoons are very pretty and very unique. 'These Atolls, however, vary so much in their formation and appearance, you cannot map them out satisfactorily and intelligibly except on a very large scale ; and after doing this you need to see one or more in order to have a correct idea of their 1 )ok and character. Mokil or Wellington Island, which has three islets, has a lagoon almost encircled by land, and has only one or two openings for the entrance and exit of tide water, neither of them of sufficient depth to admit anything larger than boats and canoes, and these only when it is high tide.

'The new year is pre-eminently a time of high purposes and new resolves. 'To many the new year has been the birth-hour to a new life, followed by glad years of consecrated activity in the interest ol God and heaven. But to a much larger number, with equally good opportunities and similar intentions, the matter never got beyond intention. 'The good resolution has never crystalized into action. 'The sacred promsie t) God and friends has never found fulfillment, and the passing years record only failure in a multitude of lives that might have been signal victories, to the glory of God and the cheer of humanity. Concerning the past the record is made, but of the future, what i—For your n.otto, take from the Word of God the f blowing Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High." Ps. 50: 14. My unsaved friend you ought to " offer unto God thanks-giving" that He has spared your life to see this opening year. How merciful He has been not to cut you down in the midst of your sins, with the burden of all your broken vows upon you Young man, you stand today upon the thresh jld of another new year. How will you begin it ? Wilt thou " pay thy vows unto the most High?" Vows of consecration to Jesus, made so long ago are nearly forgotton may be ; or perhaps they have been kept fresh in mind, by being repeated occasion illy under pressure of a disturbed conscience, but repeated, only to be broken again as the record shows. Friend, —vow no more, but haste thee, and pay quickly the vows already made. " Behold, ncno is the accepted time; behold, nOw is the day of salvation." 2 Cor. 6: 2. " When thou vowtst a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hith no pleasure in fools pay that which thou hast vowed. Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay." Feci. 5:4, 5. : " : BRIEFS. The presentation of the Y. M. C. A. International Work by the General Secretary, was gener >us'y responded t > in a collection of $22.50, which has been forwarded to Mr. Wetmore in New York. Arrangements are being made to have a brief series of Lectures in the Hall, during the next few months. Prof. Van Slyke of Oahu College has promised to favor us with one or more scientific lectures, and we have our eye on one or two other sources of help. The young men's Bible class has been unusualiy interesting during the past month. The lessons have been calculated timate relation with the personal Savior who although the Son of God was—and is still the sinner's Friend. Aitkr mature deliberation it has been decided that the next International Convention of the Young Men's Christian Association will be held in San Francisco, probably some time in May. Mr. George W lliams of London, the founder of the first Young Men's Christian Association, has recently been elected Hon. President of the Association which he started forty two years ago when a young man of twenty one. For the past twenty five years the late Earl of Shaftesbury occupied the Presidency. We have seen frequent and favorable mention ia Eastern papers of a new parlorgame called " Crwkinole." It has proved to be very popular in many of the larger Associations in the States. 'This Association is now in possession of two of the ibove games, the gift of Mr. J. B. Atherton, purchased by him when on his recent tour in America. Members and other y>ung men are cordially invited to come in and try their skill. A considerable number of the Associations in the large cities of America, now make it a part of their regular work to provide a Thanksg ving Dinner annually, for the young men among their members who are away from home. Oakland and San Francisco Associations both dispensed turkey on that recent festive day. In the latter city the family circle consisted of one hundred and fifty young men. Wi: have known General Secretaries in the States who when about to publish an Association paper, have worked themselves up to nearly a fever-heat in their vain efforts to invent some nm and appropriate name by which to christen their literary producti in. The nautical Secretary at Oakland Cal. bears away the palm for originality in that line. He enlightens the public mind through the columns of an " Association Log Book " EXTRACT FROM LECTURE OF H. VLoXlu4me5, FRIEND. L. HASTINGS. Bible a century ago, in Voltaire's time— entirely demolished the whole thing. "In less th in a hundred years" said Voltaire, "Christimity will be swept from existence, and have passed into history." Infidelity ran riot through France red-handed and impious. A century has passed away. Voltaire's old printing press, it is said has since been used to print the word of God; and the very house where he lived has been packed with Bibles from garret to cellar, as a depot for the Bible Socieiy. 'Thomas Paine demolished the Bible, and finished it off, finally; but after he had crawled despairingly into a drunkard's grave in 1809, the book took such a leap that since that time more than twenty limes as many Bibles have been made and scattered t'tirough the world as ever were made before, since the creation of man. Up to the year 1800, from four to six million copi-;s of the scriptures, in some thirty different languages, comprised all that had been produced since the world began. Eighty years later, in 1880, the Statistics of eighty different Bible societies which are now in existence with their unnumbered agencies and auxiliaries, report more than 15,000,000 Bibles, 'Testaments, and portions of Scripture, with two hundred and six new translators, distributed by Bible societies alone since 1804; to say nothing of the unknown millions of Bibles and Testaments which have been -issued and circulated by private publishers throughout the world. For a book that has been exploded so many times.this book yet shows signs of considerable life. TOPICS FOR SUNDAY EVENING GOSPEL PRAISE SERVICE. Jan. 2—New Things. A Bible Reading.

It is to aid the members io this matter that the topics are selected a month in advance and printed on this page. Our meetings have been interesting and profitable during the past year, but will we not personally endeavor to make them more so in the year to come ? Let us seek to make them soulsaving as well as interesting. Now, do not be fooled by this soft talk about the Bible being a good book,' and vet just like many other good books.
