an even more notable event will in all

probability occur; and that is the final

withdrawal of the American Board of
Commissioners for Foreign Missions
from participation in the support of
Christian work in these Islands. As is
well known the American Board began
work here with the coming of the first
missionaries in 1820. It withdrew from
full responsibility in 1863, but it has ever
since lent its support by an active interest
and by grants-in-aid in money to the continuance of the work which it had inaugurated and carried to such a successful
issue. The civilization of the Islands today, materially, intellectually and spiritually, is due more to the forces introduced by the American Board than to any
other single cause. The annexation of
the Islands to the United States rendered
the old relation a somewhat anomalous
one as they are now no longer foreign
soil. ThU with the increasing ability of
the Territory to maintain its own religious institutions has led the Board to desire to terminate the relations so long
sustained.
The editors and managers of The
Frii-ni) feel that the occasion is an opportune one for giving recognition to a
service to humanity, hence they are
discussing the feasability of issuing a
special, greatly enlarged edition for the
it
month of December, celebrating as
were its own sixtieth anniversary by a
review of the results of the American
Hoard's aid and influence here.

In this issue, we print
the Temperance
page, a list of questions prepared and sent out by the Agitation Committee of the Anti-Saloon
League, in order to gather facts in regard to effects of the present large sale
of intoxicating liquors in the various
islands of the group. We give the answers practically in full in order that our
readers may be able to draw their own
conclusions. The fact that only about
twenty-five per cent of the white men to
whom the questions were sent returned
answers, would tend to show that there
exists a general apathy among the white
people in regard to the subject, or that
there are other reasons why they do not
care to discuss it. The showing from the
natives is better. Sixty-three per cent of
those to whom the questions were sent
replied. It is also a significant fact that

with the heart of the subject, the whites
and natives take almost diametrically opposite positions. There is every reason
to believe that the natives represent the
facts more correctly. For one thing they
are in a position to have more accurate
knowledge; also, the white men who are
most intimate with the conditions of Hawaiian life, almost invariably agree with
the natives in their answers. The unsought, spontaneous testimony such as
can be found on page 15 of the report of
the Hawaiian Evangelical Association,
and as given by &lt;nir correspondent from
the Konas in the Field Notes of this issue,
all tend to confirm the truthfulness of this
side of the case. &lt; )ne question on which
there is general agreement among all
classes is that the subject of the manu

judgment. It seems likely that the moral
principles underlying the subject need
discussion, and the facts pertaining to its
present status bete need presentation liefore the people will he in the right temper of mind to deal candidly with it in
that way. In the meantime let this necessary work be pushed. Let the facts be
gathered in all their bearing on business
and family, life, on courts of justice, on
police effectiveness, on personal habits
and religious life. Let these facts be held
up to the light of day till people become
alive to the ramifications of this evil. We
already lnvc one law that cm he applied
at a practical point, and that is the United
States law requiring temperance instruction in the public schools. It stands the
Board of Education in band to see to it
that this law is adequately enforced in
order to offset as far as possible the tremendous educative influence in the direction of evil of our multiplied drinking
places, and drinking habits. If some
thing is not done to protect the children,
and instill into them correct ideas, and
train them in right principles in opposition, we have only to wait the necessary
time for a largely increased and much
more dangerous class of paupers and
criminals than the country has ever seen.
There can be no other outcome. In conclusion it may be said that this is not a
subject that calls for the consideration of
only church members and a few goodygoody people who are supposed to be paid
for their work. It is a moral responsibility that falls noon every member of the
community and no man has a right, even
in the seclusion of his own home, to use
intoxicating liquors as a beverage without
considering how far it is unfitting him for
his duties as an unselfish and partiotie
citizen. To such the noble principle of
the Apostle Paul is still in force and just

preach."

There was the empty Hour-barrel star

ing at me with open mouth; my pocketbook was empty as the barrel; I was not
on a salary, and knew of no money that
was coming in. I do not know that my
wife enjoyed my preaching, hut she was
evidently bent on enjoying my practicing.
I looked for my faith and could not find
it; I looked for a way of escape, hut could
not find that, my wife blocking the door
of exit with the dust-brush covered with

flour.
I said, "J will put my head in and sing
on one condition."
"What's that?" said my wife.
"The condition that you will put your
head in with me. You know you promised to share ny joys and sorrows."
She consented; so we put our heads in
and sang the long-metre doxology. I will
not say what else we did, but we had a
good time; and when we got our heads
out, we were a good bit powdered Up,
which we took as a token that there was
more flour to follow.
Sure enough, though no person knew
of our need or the empty barrel, the next
day a grocery man called with a barrel of
flour for the Gibhuds. Who sent it, or
where it came from, we do not know to
this day, save that we do know that our
heavenly Father knew that we had "need
of these things."
I have joined with a thousand voices in
singing the grand old doxology; I have
sung it in many a fine church building,
also in the open air under the blue canopy
of heaven; but there is something very
peculiar about the sound of the song when
sung in an empty flour-barrel under the
forgoing conditions. I have repeated the
experience once or twice since with the
same result, though now I never spend
any time in looking for my faith; I
simply apply for flour at Phil. 4:19, and
then sing, "Praise God, from whom all
blessings flow." Bread, butter, beef,
beans, and all our needs we find can be
supplied from the same place.
In days gone by we have trusted in a

Waimea a health station seems to have
been abandoned partly on account ot the
bleakness of the climate in rainy weather,
and partly because missionary servici required constant attendance at once place.
Mr. Lyons was thereafter the central figure in the work in that section, remaining
faithfully at his post for fifty-four years.
The field at first included all Knhala,
both North and South, and llamakua.
In 1837 North Kohala was set off by itself, tinder Messrs. Bliss and Bailey,
having to Mr. Lyons all that long strip
of country, now the llamakua cane belt,
extending from the present &lt; &gt;okala plantation to \\ aipio, and including the deep
valleys of Waipto, Wairnanu and Honopue. It must be remembered that there
were not even horse trails in those days,
die native foot paths descending directly
into the gulches and climbing the other
side. The other half of the field included I'uako, two villages to the south, and
Kawaihae at the sea, and two villages in
Kawaihae mountain. Waimea itself contained several villages. All the country
was populous with natives, W'aipio alone
baying a thousand people.
At first the work consisted of getting
acquainted with the people, and making
preaching tours through the district, and
in examining and directing the schools
which had already been established in the
preceding decade in many sections. Then
crime the great revival of 183S, during
which year and the succeeding one, hundreds and even thousands of people
flocked to the central station, the mission
premises were crowded and overrun with
those who wished to see the pastor, get
instruction to buy hooks, etc., and an immense temporary lanai, or shed, had to be
rected to accommodate worshippers

course world not last, and as the number of church members had increased to
probably 3.000 or more, the field was divided up into sub-parishes. In llamakua proper there were seven; Kukuihaele

Vallcv, and Waimaiui, and on the west•rn shore, I'uako. Kawaihae at the sea,
and Kawaihae with two sub-parishes on
the mountain, in the district afterwards
famous for its "Irish" potatoes. For each
if these divisions there was an elder appointed by the missionary, and also deacons, a building for worship, and a school
house, sometimes the two houses being in

Men of the present day when they
think of the matter often have to confess
that they know very hide about the
methods and details of early missionary
work, and the systems of labor adopted.
It occurs to the writer to give some of
the features of the work in North Ha
waii.
I'poi' the first arrival of missionaries
on these islands a few main points were
occupied, viz: Kailua. I.ahaina, Honolulu
and Waimea on Kauai. These were centers of effort. Later on as the force was
increased the area of the group was divided Up into definite "fields." each of
which was to be thoroughly worked up
by the missionary in charge, the assistant, when two families were at one sta

Without stopping to give the different
divisions of the main island of Hawaii,
this article will deal with the field whose
central station was Waimea, in South Kohala. About the year 1831. eleven years

debilitating influence of the climate of
nich stations as Kailua and Honolulu,
and it was thought wise to choose some
elevated, cool locality for a new center
of work whither different ones could re

rotation in service, or perhaps of having
one permanent family, while the assistants could go and come as was most hen

Rnggles of Kaawaloa went on a tour of
inspection, ami selected Waimea, about

thither and remained for some months.

whole was kept well in hand.
Every quarter the missionary, attended by two faithful "Hawaiians, who carried his baggage in ancient Hawaiian
style known as imimaka, in calabashes at
first, and afterwards in tin adaptations of
the calabash idea, thus protected from
the terrific rains of winter made the entile tour of the field. These journeys
were on foot, in humble missionary Style,
and as about one day was spent at each
sub-station, sometimes more, holding
meetings, administering the sacraments,
examining candidates, and inspecting the
schools, which were then all under the
care of the mission, nearly three weeks
were spent on the entire circuit. During
this time the wife held the fort alone ami
cared for the little ones, and, in a measure, for the people.
The trip to Wainianu was always a
hard one, climbing roadless palls and
crossing deep gulches, or a perilous one
by sea in canoe, a heavy swell from the

THE JAPAN MISSION AND HAWAII
The annual meeting of the American Board's
Japan Mission convened at Kobe College July
,}d md lasted a few hours more than a full
week This yearly gathering is notable even
in this land of many missions as nothing just

like it characterizes any other denomination at
work here. It is at once recreational, hygienic.
educational and religious. Its chief work is
business, both the King's business and also the
kind that the hardest headed American merchants would recognize as classifiable under
no other head. It is a great picnic, the families gathering from all over Japan. Those

who have seen no fellow missionaries for ten
months, children who for nearly a year have
known no playmates come together with those
residing in the large centers and every moment
overflows with the joy of associations in closest intimacy with comrades in the same gre t
cause.
The little ones of course are radiant
with fun. for then all sorts of good times are
prepared and in these meetings they receive

the forms of power which people are he-ginning
to associate with the thought of missionary
children. Kobe College is an Ideal place for

hut a new line of spiritual beauty also appears
due to the spirit of unselfishness in surrendering cherished hopes in order that funds sadly

imperative.

spent tired faces look rested, lines of care arc
smoothed out and Mission meeting is found
to have done more good than seven days at any
sanitarium could have promise.l.
For the earnest Christians in Hawaii the
meeting of the Japan Mission this year has
special significance, Not only were two representatives of the Hawaiian Hoard present at
all the sesious and accorded the honor of cor
responding membership, but what was of still
greater moment not a little time was given to
the consideration of the relation of the Japan
ese work ill Hawaii to the interests of Christianity here.
What Hawaii can do for Japan in a single
isolated ease is clearly exhibited in the person
of Hon. Taro Ando, one of the noblest and
most influential Christian men in the Empire.
lie himself is nev r weary of telling how he
found Christ far away in an island across the
sea and what was done for him there he is
fond of asserting can be accomplished for
others, hut notwithstanding this notable ex
ample it nuist he admitted that a very large
part of the work done for Japanese in Hawaii
seems to go for nought as soon as the Pacific
ocean gets in its negativing influence. It used
to be said fifteen years ago of Japanese returning from America where they had been bap
tiled, that the Pacific was the graveyard of
Christian faith so milch of it had been I uried
therein. The saying might lie repeated of
those coming hack from Hawaii.
That tliis is only a half truth, however, is
evident from testimony coining from the see
li.Mis whence the larger part of the emigrant
to Hawaii have gone, showing that there are
many of these returned Christians who in
-eeret still regard themselves as disciples,
though like the Methodist in one of his temporary falls from grace, they are "not work
in' at it just now." If these could be traced
out. and if the whereabouts of all other Christians who have come back from Hawaii were
knowp, 'here is little doubt that with them as
a foundation a most substantial and promising
work onld be prosecuted. Hut alas, the Misi n after engaging a most competent Japanese
to attempt just this task has been compelled to
listen with keen disappointment to his report

mosquitoes to grumble about. The session*
are confined to the daytime, exacting committee work suffers no undigested subject matter "No Chritiun. ever reach Japan from Hato intrude and waste time, perfect freedom waii."

There is just one way in which to change
this doleful and exaggerated comment upon
the effectiveness of the splendid campaign car
iie.l on so long ill the Territory into a song of
triumphant progress and the procedure is as
simple as it is obvious. Require every Japan
ese evangelist to send to the Hoard in Honolulu
a monthly list of the Christians under his
jurisdiction about to return or actually on the
way to Japan, including their home addresses.
Let a monthly letter be mailed to Rev. S. L.
Gulick from the Board rooms giving these
names and addresses. Mr. Gulick is the direct
appointee of the Japan Mission to receive such
communications ami to take steps to follow up
every returning Christian from Hawaii. If
the name of the steamer on which the persons
are to sail could be known in advance, still
better measures could he inaugurated here to
bind the home comer to the Christian movement in his own land. The Japan Mission has
definitely requested the Hawaiian Hoard to
furnish the information above detailed. Of
course this can and will be done.
A second phase of the close relation existing
between the Hawaiian Hoard ami the Japan
Missiiin was very carefully considered at Kobe.
This was nothing less than the question of
the supply of evangelists. The successful forward movement of the past year and a half
has most painfully accentuated the straitened
condition of .all Japanese missions in respect
to trained Christian workers. Everywhere
there are whitened fields but the laborers arcsadly wanting. Matters have reached such an
acute stage that it is clearly seen that no increased supply of men for Hawaii can be furnished. It is hoped that the number now at
work can somehow he maintained, hut even
this may he found impossible. In this emergency the Mission has actually turned to the
Islands for help. Fortunately the bulk of em
igrants come from the class of farm laborers.
I'he history of Christianity has always enforced the lesson that the best work for any
el.ass can be done by those who belong thereto.
Jestis, a Gililean all save by birth, drew most
of his disciples from Galilee. So it has ever
been. Why not then try to raise up and train
in Hawaii a band of workers from among the
people on the ground? There is no need of
elaborate training or of an education that
shall take the men out of sympathy with their
fellows. What ecems to be indicated is a
training school n the lines of such practical
institutions for lay workers as those founded
by Spurgeon in London ami Moody in Chicago. Already Hawaii has had a slight taste of
what the latter institution can do in the case
of Mr. .Seimatsu Kiniura. who is conducting
such a remarkable campaign in Tokyo. Furthermore Japan might be incalculably benefitted hv such an institution. At present the
farming classes are almost entirely outside the
Christian movement here. Suppose Hawaii
should train a dozen men from a. many provinces who in the Providence of God should
find their way back to their homes after years
of practical work in the 'territory? Might not

Some time ago the Agitation Committee of the Anti-Saloon League sent out a
list of questions (200 copies going to
white men and 100 to natives) in reference to the sale of intoxicating liquors
and its effects in these Islands. The
Temperance page of this issue is put at
the disposal of the committee for its report. Forty-nine white men and sixtythree natives returned answers. Below,
these questions are printed with the
answers received. In all hut three, the

The Anti-Saloon League has made
something of a record during the past
three months. Three applications for
saloons were defeated at Waialua. Rev.
Mr. Poepoe, assistant pastor of Kaumakapili Church, was sent by the League to
pass a petition among the Hawaiians;
Mr. W. A. Bowen took a petition to Manager Goodale of the Waialua Sugar Plantation. The two petitions were signed
by a large number of influential people,
and the applications for license were defeated.
The Primo beer saloons, in direct conflict with the decision of the United States
District Court, have been allowed to run
hy the territorial officials until their year's
license expired. Nine of these licenses
expired during July. The Anti-Saloon
League is watching to see if these saloons
attempt to do business against territorial
laws. They have kept closed doors, and
apparently- do not open at all for business. Camarinos's saloon license expires
Sept. 4th. This is the noted "Gambrinus"
saloon.

The Christian Life...
TRUTH AND LIFE
Experience shows that the highest ends
of life are secured by shaping our plans
and directing our actions in accordance
this in
with the facts about us. We seewatching
such common place routine as
the state of the market or the weather.
When we try to live in ignorance of, or
without reference to facts, we inevitably
bring harm upon ourselves, and lay ourselves open to the suspicion that we are
weak in judgment or careless in action.
Another illustration is found in our relations with others. It is enjoined hy all
as one of the highest duties to so ?peak
and act that the real condition of things
shall be revealed. This is required that
those whose lives we affect may guard
their interests by adjusting themselves to
their environment. So clearly is this
recognized that to falsify is regarded as
one of the greatest vices, and the falsifier
as one of the greatest enemies of life and
happiness: and so it comes that truthfulness is regarded as one of the highest
virtues.
This dependence of welfare upon fact
would argue hat not only is the knowledge of fact essential but that the facts
themselves must in the main he of such a
nature as to he conducive to well-being;
and. further, that, if we live in a beneficent universe, the ultimate constitution
and arrangement of things, under a divine providence are, in the large view,
such as to promote our highest good and
this, as we readily see, is only another
way of saying that God is good, and that
the universe is shaped with reference to
moral ends.
To know the facts and laws, material
and moral, of the universe in which we
live, in other words, to know the truth,
in order that by this knowledge we may
make our lives promotive of the highest
moral and spiritual ends, should, therefore, be one of the chief aims in life. To
fully comprehend these facts and laws is,
of course, beyond the power of any finite
intellect; but in the realm of highest truth,
that which pertains to God and His redemptive work for men, we have the
promise of the guidance of a supernatural
helper, the Holy Spirit. "When he the
Spirit of truth is come he will guide you
into all truth." That the truth is the
divinely appointed means of bringing us
into largeness and fullness of life is also
suggested by words of the Savior, "Ye
shall know the truth and the truth shall
make you free." This is life eternal to
know God and Jesus Christ whom thou
hast sent."

:

We do not then need to fear the truth.
The truth has no influence in the world
but to lead to larger and better things.
We should not be distressed when we see
some old and cherished belief compelled
to give way before a clearer light. This
is not working to our detriment, but to
our greater freedom and power. It is
one of the ways in which the truth should
"make us free." Again God is a "God
of truth" who the Psalmist tells us "desires truth in the inward parts." When,
therefore, we come into knowledge and
obedience to the truth we come into likeness and fellowship with God, "But
speaking the truth in love may grow up
in all things into him who is the head
even Christ."
