Atherton. He never liked notoriety. He would not have liked to have much said concerning his gift, and in this wish, no doubt, his wife and family share. There still remains, however, to say that his original intention was to endow the Hoard to the amount of $50,000. The financial pressure being so great last year, he decided to give $12,000 to wipe out the overdraft at the bank. This left $38,000, the securities for which have recently been handed to the Treasurer, to constitute the J. B. Athcrton Fund. The income from this fund may be used for the current expenses of the Board. "His works do follow him." "The Board is rich." Not at —for answer, Impression look at all, Treasurer's the statement. "But how about the recent Atherton gift ?" This endowment merely perpetuate! Mr. Atherton's quarterly payments, which the Treasurer has drawn since Mr. Atherton's death up to the present time. The bequest was extremely welcome, but nothing new in the way of income. The"de mortuis nil nisi bonum" rule applies only to persons. We might speak "other than good" of the dead county act, but we don't want to. This much, however, concerning the administration we have just escaped in the Oahu County,—we feel at liberty to say concerning the personnel of the supervisors. We are glad that the present head of the government is not also the manager of an important branch of the liquor industry. Of course the Republican party knew what it was doing when it permitted the candidacy of Mr. Hocking. Still, it professed to feel (through tlie mouth of its chief organ) considerably aggrieved that this gentleman so far forgot the "rules of the game" as to seek and obtain the chairmanship of the Hoard of Supervisors. Did the party consider for a moment that the head of a business so inimical to the public welfare, could forget that he was in a [)osition to maintain the well being of the liquor business ? At the best that may be said of the liquor business, we only tolerate it. Put in power,—put it at the head of our County! (S) Hocking! A Narrow Escape modern appliances. At any rate, the reported naive admission of a veteran hotel man is astonishing. From the knowledge we have of Mr. Alexander Young, we foci sure that he will be glad to feel that at least the Annex of his hotel is a safe place for children. Home Work The Japanese war cloud having shifted, it is well nigh certain that it will veer around again. Howlongisitanyway, recent discussion concerning "home work" conducted in the Advertiser, more stress seems to have been laid on the amount, rather than the character of the work required. Mr. Thompson of Kamehameha most ably presented the need of consideration as to the character of the course in our primary and elementary school work. One of our oldest and ablest educators, he has proved in many instances the advantage of the training which may be characterized by the word "observing" over that somewhat covered by the word "cramming." When will we learn that Power is what we want in our chidrcn, —increased ability to think, read, acquire, do for themselves. The chief quarrel with our schools has been (alas! is today) that the grade requirement forces most teachers—we believe unwillingly, in many cases —to cover up the children with so much dead (Continued on A Mistaken War and Labor In the HOTEL BARS AND THE YOUNG fi-H-!- !- H- page 4.) l-H"l"l"l' H"M you know that those The following clipping from the Adyour home which are in games vertiser of late date moves us with some- X T no longer used might help to keep thing like astonishment: "Manager H.

We are not aware of the occasion for the utterance, but we append the following, from the Missionary Herald of December, 1903. that the courteous and graceful intent of the Bishop should be recognized here in the Islands: "Among the many excellent addresses, (at noon meetings in Boston in the interest of Foreign Missions) one from the Rt. Rev. H. B. Restarick, D. D., Bishop of the Episcopal Church of Honolulu, attracted special attention. Bishop Restarick, since coming to this country, had heard disparaging utterances respecting the missionaries and the children of the missionaries in Honolulu, so that he felt called upon on this occasion to hear testimony to the work done in the Islands by the American Board. He spoke in eloquent terms of the consecration, ability and devotion of the sons and daughters of the missionaries who are now at the islands, many of whom are giving not only time and strength, but of their means F.lementary Elementary Pedagogy, Psychology or Child Nature Study—all of prepared books are text for which treated in tory, this very purpose and well within the grasp of the average person.

Their idea was to take as a nucleus Mr. Richards' class, some of the young women in Kawaiahao Seminary and some of the pupils of the Normal School now living at the Kaiulani Home; then build up slowly from the outside. The plan involved a course, including some musical drill; the Bible as a text book; method work following lines already established in the day school Normal work. Of course, Prof. Wood is pre-eminently the man for this leadership. He will be able to bridge over the alarmingly large gap between the day-school and the Sunday-school. The making of maps, the introduction of drawing and practice teaching,—all combined, cannot fail to attract serious-minded young people, who will now feci that something worthy of their efforts is in reach. To make the advantages of such a course as wide as possible, there will be a meeting called to get the opinions of as many superintendents and Sundayschool workers as possible. In fact, a meeting is already provided for (at the present writing) and the consensus of opinion as to where, when and what is awaited with interest. FOR FIFTY YEARS MISSIONARIES Two of the noblest men who ever lived on the shores of the Pacific have now completed fifty years of missionary service. Rev. James Kekela and Rev. S. Kauwealoha, missionaries to the Marquesas Islands in early life, after finishing with credit to themselves the course at the Lahainaluna College and receiving instruction in a theological class taught by Rev. Sheldon Dibble, and later in the school founded by Rev. W. P. Alexander for the training of a Hawaiian ministry, were settled as the first native Hawaiian pastors, the former at Kahuku, Oahu, and the latter at Kaanapali, Maui. These men had for five or six years been pastors and preachers, when in 1853 Matunui, a Marqttcsian chief named landed at Lahaina, asking that a teacher of Christianity be sent to his islands, that his countrymen might receive the blessings which so evidently hail come to Hawaii with the light of Christianity. The missionary fathers and leading Christians in the Hawaiian churches, in heeding this Macedonian call, selected these two stalwart men as suitable ones to face the dangers and discomforts of life in the then cannibal group of the Marquesas. With their most worthy wives, these two men, in 1853, cheerfully entered �5 THE FRIEND upon a work, which to human view presented most discouraging aspects. Undaunted by the well known sanguinary and cannibal proclivities of the people, and trusting their lives to the keeping of six, Mr. Kauwealoha being one of them.

Rev. Sheldon Dibble took this class of There is a chief Governor at Taeohae, : Xi Nuuhiwa, with white police, and at Atuona, Hibaoa, is Beregatia and white policemen, preserving order among residents and among strangers. They advise the prosecution of manual labor, and they punish transgressors. The French officers repress evil-doers; there is no war and but little violence, and the manufacturers of rum are punished, for they are the source of the murders committed. The boys and girls are taken to the family schools and to the day schools. The Government roads are kept in good repair; but the number of the natives is diminishing, and there are no Chinamen, Japanese, Portuguese, or Gilbert Islanders to do the work. There are but few Frenchmen or Americans, or foreigners of any kind; and there is no work to enrich or contribute to the comfort of the people. The resources of this people are their breadfruit and cocoanut trees, and the fish of the sea. The blight rests upon man and upon the trees, destroying the leaves and rendering them unproductive; even the guavas, the cocoanuts, the vi, the bananas, the mango, the melon and the squashes, upon the honey combs and upon mankind. (This sentence is poetical and figurative, relating to the curse of sin which rests upon all creation as well as upon man.) As regards the work of God in Nuuhiwa, we know that He is the Lord and Father over all the world. The Lord Jesus has given us the word, teaching us to pray, "Thy kingdom come." Many have been the Christian workers who have come to these islands for the establishment of His kingdom, and the most of them have been laid to rest. You and I are waiting still for the coming of His kingdom; we have waited these fifty years now past. Have we seen the fruit of our labors? Has the kingdom of our Lord been established in these islands? Do you remember loba lohetia of Oomoo, Fatuhiva, the first fruit of the ingathering into the church ? You have not forgotten Abraham Natua and his wife, the deacon of the church, and Eva Hipahipa, the true believer in Jesus? You remember Daniel Tohutete and his children, and Vaianea, who was sought by his brother to aid in getting me settled at Hanatetuua? So also here at Uapou there were many who heard gladly the word of the Kingdom, until the coming of the smallpox, which took some of our hopeful followers. Two of the wives are laid in the ground of this land, as was Abraham's wife, Sarah, laid in the parcel of ground that they bought from the residents in that land. Our friend, Rev. Z. Hapuku, gathered in members for the kingdom of God, and then laid himself to rest in Atuona. So, too, the wife of Rev.

The Tahitian missionary, Tamatahi, and his wife are stationed at Puaniau, Hivaoa, to the satisfaction of the children and the brethren there.

LIVELY LIHUE For that is all you can call the place, if you are in the Japanese swim. Christianity- is a living force there and no mistake. At its head stand a David and Jonathan pair of friends, Messrs. Fukuda and Uchida. They were comrades back inDoshishadays at Dr. Necsima's splendid University. There they came to know and love one another as only college boys can. Rev. Mr. Fukuda, the up]K-r classman, came to Lihue a year ago and fought to the finish his battle of homesickness all alone. What a tough job that is, only those may guess who know and love Japan and are able to picture the contrast between its rich life and the colorless death of plantation existence in Hawaii. But it was all a part of this brave knight's loyalty to his Lord Jesus Christ. Mr. Fukuda saw at a glance that Christianity's opportunity in this land with his countrymen lies first of all with the children, so in his gentle quiet way —for he is a typical gentleman of that rare style of courtesy for which Japan is famous —he began to plan a school. Lihue has a large quota of Christian Americans who know a good thing when they see it, and also how to make it tell. So they rallied to the support of the evangelist and in due season a tasteful, clean school-bouse rose modestly in the very center of town opposite the mill. Again the call for the exercise of the knightly quality of bravery came to Mr. I'ukiida. There was no Hoard money in sight for a teacher to man the school. "We can if we will, 1 thought the Japanese- samurai, as he sent a letter to his comrade oversea in Kyoto. He explained that funds were scarce but work was plenty, Ile had a few dollars to help his passage, and he would share his own meager salary to round out the tiny tuition fees into a semblance of a living wage. Would his friend come and risk it for the love of Christ? He did not reckon without his host, for Mr. I'chida was sprung from a family whose members for generations had learned how to do and dare for their feudal lords. He is a second generation Christian, too, and that counts tremendously. In her struggle to educate him and his five sisters his mother, long a widow, had taught him how to endure hardship for Christ Jesus. The invitation, therefore, to come to Hawaii was a challenge to his Christian manhood, and he accepted it. The two are at work as only such a team can work. No wonder the school is overflowing and the little Japanese boys and girls flcvk about these young fellows, who are teaching them the meaning of Cod's love. They are a practical pair and know that in order to keep their countrymen from drink anel gambling of nights, they must furnish them healthful recreation. Hence, they are starting a game room, in addition to their English night school for adults. ' Hut whence are the games, crokonole and ping pong, and other indoor means of relaxation to come? To carry two men on the salary of one plus school fees is puzzle enough. Perhaps the boys and girls of Honolulu, by sending to the Board Rooms checkers, chess, lotto, pit, ping pong sets and the like, will help answer this question. When Christmas came these two workers were taken by surprise. Mother Rice, Mrs. Isenberg, Mrs. \\. 11. Kicc, and others helped with gifts of candy, cake, apples, playthings enough to cover all seemingly possible needs. So when the show opened all went merry as a marriage bell until the program had advanced a number or two. Then the little church began to be crowded. Still they came, taking all the standing room by storm, swarming about the doors and windows and tilling a goodly share of the lot outside. Alas! how feed such a swarm? Mrs. W. 11. Rice rose grandly to the emergency. In the home near by were slill two boxes of apples, a couple of boxes of cake, nine cases of sola water, sixty yards of cloth, which Mrs. Isenberg had sent for a possible emergency in some one of the many Christmas celebrations, a lot of plaything cups and saucers, and lasl of all ice water for a cool drink, if the generous supply should run out. In the rear room of the church busy workers now gathered, the cloth was torn into pieces large enough for baby kimonos for the tiny riders mounted on the mothers' backs, cake and candy and apples soon were appropriately wrapped, and when the program ended all was ready. First the children were supplied, then the church was emptied and the mothers filed in with their pickabacks, only to give place in turn to the unmarried men. All received some remembrance and voted the occasion the greatest success the Lihue JapD. S. anese world had ever known. A PLEASANT RECEPTION Mr. F. W. Damon, during his stay on the coast, is doing an excellent work among the Chinese students of California, especially among those who were formerly his students in this institution. There are many Mills' boys in California and Mr. Damon has not been slow to look them up and make them feel that he is still interested in their welfare. On December 22nd, Mr. Damon and Mrs. Mills, of Mills College, received a large number of Chinese young men at an informal luncheon at the college, and among the number were many former students of this school.—Student, Dec, '03- �7 THE FRIEND STRANGE DELAY IN THE DISCOVERY OF HAWAII By S. E. Bishop. The writer proposes to specify and describe a series of peculiar events, all of which contributed and combined to produce the singular success which attended the introduction of Christianity into the Hawaiian Islands. Many of these circumstances were such as were unlikely to occur. Altogether they were so numerous, and so tended to the accomplishment of one result, that they may well be rcgareled by Christian believers as constituting a chain of very marked Special Providences, which were Divinely in tended to se-cure firmly this important strategic position as a possession of enlightened Christianity for the furtherance of the kingdom of the Lord Jesus in this Pacific Hemisphere. It is believed to be profitable and important that we should distinctly recognize this peculiar course- of Divine Providence-, and we may begin by noting the peculiar Providential Delay in the Discovery of Hawaii. Hawaii was first made known to the world through its discovery by the famous explorer, Captain James Cook, who on his voyage from Bolabola to Alaska, visited Kauai in January. 1778, and on his re-turn, first saw the Island of Hawaii in December of the same year. From that time forward, the group was frequently visited, and speedily became of commercial importance. Before 1820, a considerable trade had become established with China, Mexico, and the north west coast of America. There was also a large whaling fleet visiting these- ports. lii fact, no port () f equal commercial importance existed in the central or north-eastern Pacific. In view Of so rapid a commercial development after discovery, it must be considered strange that the existence of so central and important a group remained unknown until so late a date as 1788. All the other groups inhabited by the Polynesian race had long been known to the world. For over 250 years the Spanish galleons had be>en crossing the North Pacific annually both ways between Mexico and the Philippines, Hawaii lying in a direct line between the two countries. Alexander is doubtless correct in his statement (History, p. 100). "These islands did not lie in the track of the Spanish galleons, for on leaving Acapulco they steered southwesterly so as to pass far to the south of them, and on their return voyage they sailed northward till they reached thirty degrees of latitude, and then ran before the westerly being early wrecked by Spanish tyranny winds till they approached the coast of and the Spanish Inquisition?

I TEMPERANCE ISSUES EDITED BY REV W. D. WESTERVELT There is in Honolulu a Japanese bamboo drinking cup which teaches an excellent temperance- lesson. It was made as a "sake" cup, and was used in drinking the Japanese wine called "sake." It is inscribed or carved with three mottoes: "The man drinks the sake;" "The sake drinks the sake ; The sake drinks the man." The three steps, indicating the development of appetite, are very clearly defined, (i) The man drinks, feeling that he has full control over the wine cup. (2) He drinks because the created appetite makes more wine enjoyable. (3) The appetite takes control of the man and his property, and drinks up mind, money and home. It is a strange fact that those handling intoxicating drinks understand thoroughly the serious results, and yet play with Ihe evil. In Denver, Colorado, one saloon carried the sign of the snake, and offered its patrons whiskey as "rattlesnake poison." Another saloon at one time placed in its windows an exceedingly touching picture of a drunkard's child. In Leadville, Colorado, one of the saloons was known as "The Little Church." Another had a large family Hible, helel open by a dagger, and so placed on a shelf back of the bar, that all customers could easily see red marked verses warning against the use of wine.

According to the view of Apr. 23, 1903.—Kohala Club & Transportathe Court, the County Act not only tion Co., Ltd., Kohala. sought to establish a government by Hilo. counties in the Territory, but also entirely to reform and recreate our taxation system; that it was, in fact, a county and a tax act combined, and so interwoven were these two distinct Subjects that it was impossible to separate them, and the entire Act must therefore fall. To the surprise of all, the decision was unanimous. The County Act being voiel, the ole Territorial Government immediately be came active; but we found ourselves in the position of a country with a going government, but no appropriations t meet the expenses thereof. The Governo wisely decided to fall back upon the provisions of the Organic Act, which, Section 54, provides for just such an emergency as the present, declaring that i �case the Legislature fail to provide an appropriation measure, the treasurer might make such payments as were necessary, and "the sums appropriated in the last appropriation bills shall be deemed to have been reappropriated." It seems from the statement of the Auditor that we shall have no trouble in meeting the running expenses of the government in this way, and it is most earnestly hoped that the Governor will not deem it best to call together again our expensive and not over-conscientious Legislature. On all sides we hear expressions of entire satisfaction that the County Act has been killed. The Governor and the one-time officers seem to be the only mourners. That the latter should be such is to be expected, but that the Governor should so have become infatuated with the County idea seems hard to understand. We elo not believe that any deep analysis of the needs of the country or any weighty reasoning has given him this passion for the new form of administration, and we trust that a sober second thought will convince him that the present form of government is nearly enough controlled by the voters, and that there is no need further to inflict the community with elective offices designed only to be filled with men utterly unfit to govern. As to the effort on foot to obtain county legislation through Congress, one of two things will surely happen : —either Congress will refuse tobe bothered longer by her new possessions running cons.antly to her with their troubles, or we shall have an act as iron clad and as inflexible as the Organic Act itself. We may well congratulate ourselves if it does not likewise prove absolutely unfit and unsuited to our conditions. It is impossible to conceive that Congress will pass an act (even if it has the power to do so, which is doubtful) whicV. will be so constructed as to allow the Territorial Legislature to ani*-:-' 1 or entirely nullify its action. Tlie retrenchment in expenses commenced by the former Supervisors of Oahu County, we trust, will be continued by the present officers. It appears to be the easiest thing in the world for a government to become overloaded with clerks and assistants. There is a peculiar attraction which seems to draw into the government employ all the incompetents of the community, and a "government job" has rightfully come to be a synonym for a position whose most exhaustive occupation is the drawing of a salary. Certainly a casual glance into the Executive Building would lead one to such a belief. This being true, it is a good thing to have an occasional house cleaning. Retrenchment has always to be carried out with considerable care and 9 THE FRIEND thought, but if so conducted, we believe it is, that tourist companies and individthat the result will be as surprising as it uals find themselves balked at the very start by a well nigh prohibitive steamwill be gratifying to the taxpayers. ship fare.

Great Palls, a suburb of Btttte, where Miss G. and her brother reside part of the time, is a beautiful inland city, and she has many acquaintances there. She mentioned that Rev. J. A.

A wandering band of Indians, pari of them C'ree and part Chippewa, camped about six miles out of the city, and advertised a great war dance." One exhibition she thus describes: "The wonderful feather, horn and weasel-tail ornaments they wore, were remarkable. Their dance was a foolish kind of a slow shuffle around the group of musicians. The oldest chief, as he- came around to the west, would bow very low to the sun, but there was no other indication that it was a Sun dance.

My only palliation 1 can offer for so trespassing oil your time and patience, is that to start the subject of Hawaii—its history, its life, its thousand memories—is like "the letting out t>f waters." There is so much in theise twenty years of life in and on the " Paradise of the Pacific" that my memory "brings the light of other days around me." May the beautiful mantle of Christian character of honored parents fall and rest benignantly and beneficently on children and children's children, and rtu the land we love and those that elwell therein. I must close with the one sweet word that, once known and unelerstood, is never forgotten. Aloha. From your octogenarian friend, not ( rOKHAM D. (in.man. The heart knows no age. AMONG THE YOUNG PEOPLE Of course we are speaking of the "Brigade"' when we speak of Boys' work,—also it will be noted, that the Boys' Field is that once called the Hoys' Brigade. It suits our fancy not to bring tlie Brigade idea so much to the front at present; you don't mind, do you? The main thing is to get hold of the boy. Tlie field is doing just that, too. The man will do more. But concerning the field: The track is under way, grass covers the entire inside of the oval, outside, too, for that matter. There is almost too much grass, enough to sell, in fact. The big opening Field Day has been announced for the 18th of March, and a most efficient committee has the matter in charge. Mr. Allan Dunn, the chairman, is an old hand at this sort of thing, and with him are Mr. Livingstone of Kamehameha, Mr. Babbitt, Mr. Anderson of Punahou, Mr. Young of the Y. M. C. A., and Lieutenant Newton of Camp McKinley. While public interest will center largely around this first championship event, some will find the boys' meet (which will immediately follow) the most interesting. It will be cruder, no doubt, but will be just as fiercely contested. First, there will be events for the Juniors, boys from 9 to 13 years of age. The Seniors will be boys from 12 to 18, and will come from the same localities. They are picking up their local "yell" and have club colors. Messrs. Wells, Logan and Rider will get something out of this besides mere athletics, though that alone is considerable and worthy of the effort. Now as to the man. Mr. le-nry Martin is the man. lie is acquainted with boys, —had a large club of them in St. Louis, wlu-re- he was Hoys' Secretary tor a long time. Here- is his picture. \Ve wish him success here. To be sure, the boys are different from any be has met. After all, as they are "boys," the resemblances will more than equal the differences.

It was worth it, wasn't it,—the endeavor for the few brief hours he could stay.' The man is electric. His influence is not that which you would expect from mere effervescent enthusiasm. Dr. Clark has grown with his work. // was once housed comfortably m a Maine parsonage; lie was once a country minister. Now both it and he are grown up. They are world-wide. ( hie thing that was noticeable in his address was the complete annihilation of Self. It might be comparatively easy to refrain from saying much concerning'the "I," and yet have it "stick out" all over. What was evident in Dr. Clark's talk— which there was no pretense to oratorical display—was the dee]) impression he left that Jesus Christ was the author and instigator of the Christian Endeavor in movement. May God prosper his trip around the world is the anient wish of Island Chrisstatus with them. He is expected soon, tian Endeavorcrs. so he may take hold of the Field events. Mr. Frank Atherton has acted as the Treasurer of the organizatie)n, but will do so no longer afte-r Feb, i. lie has been carrying two treasurcrships anel the work is, of course, too much. He will retain the work of the Y. M. C. A. and will take a chairmanship of the Hoys' work, as his interest continues as heretofore. The Hoys' work is fortunate in securing Mr. G. P. Castle as the new Treasurer, lie will take hold after his return from Maui.. Boys' Work ORIENTAL WORK. By Rev. E. W. Thwing. The opportunity for effective work among the Oriental people in Hawaii is great. The needs of the work are many. The Territory of Hawaii, as the outpost of the United States in the Pacific, is the point where contact with the people of China, Japan, and Korea, can be made of the greatest advantage. It is here, in these Pacific islands, that the men from these Eastern nations first meet with the Christianity, enlightenment, and progress of American life and civilization. It is here that Christian schools and colleges and universities, might well be established for the education and training of these men who come to us looking for a better life, and higher possibilities than can be at present secureel in their own land. As Western nations have received the priceless heritage of Christian enlightenment from the East, it is now a duty to pass it on to these Eastern lands again. In the providence of God, large numbers of these people have come to our shores. Shall we neglect them or look with indifference at these present opportunities? Surely, no! What is the present condition as to these people ? THE CHINESE IN HAWAII MR. HENRY MARTIN. There are at present between twenty and thirty thousand Chinese in the Islands. Over 4,000 are native born. Since 1000 over 6,000 men have returned �13 THE FRIEND is hoped, some of the brightness of these Islands to their home land. There arc now 1,500 young Chinese students in our schools, and many of them arc among the brightest scholars we have. The Chinese paid in one year (1901) taxes to the amount of $1 15,546.00, so that they are helping to pay for the expense of the government schools. The Chinese are now more and more looking for and realizing the value of a Western education. The Emperor of China has well said of his people: "We do not lack cither men of intellect or brilliant talents, callable of learning and doing anything they please, but their movements have hitherto been hampered to China, taking, it by old prejudices." The younger students of China are realizing these hampering prejudices and are feeling the need of larger opportunities than they can secure at present in China. Hawaii is the place where these young men might come to Study, and be prepared for the work of building up a new China. They are looking to us for C. J. DAY & CO.

Hawaii is a good meeting ground. Shall we not bid these students of China to come to us, and shall we not be ready to give to them freely, that Christian education which has made us great, and which will be just as truly the up-building of China? JAPANESE WORK. work is, being well carried on by This those who have it in charge, both under the Hawaiian Board and the Methodist church. Other churches arc also doing something to reach these people. There are more than twice as many Ja|xmese in these Islands as there are Chinese, and the work is becoming of first im(M>rtance. Many of the towns and villages of the Islands have almost become Japanese towns.

Work on the proposed new building for boys has not yet begun, for lack of funds. This worthy object has the backing of many of our Island people, but the present financial depression has hindered the work from progressing. Subscriptions come in occasionally, however, anel it is much to be hoped that this much-needed improvement may soon be carried out. A new element has lately come into the school, when several Koreans were admitted. These arc all Christian men and are progressing rapidly. The effect upon the Hawaiian boys in the school of admitting other nationalities has been decidedly stimulating. Meeting anel competing with the very elements then- will come in contact with after their school days are over is having a very beneficial effect in awakening greater effort, with the result of better work along all of the many lines fe>llowed out in the school.
