There IS an imperative call for an increase of endowment or other aid so that additional teachers may be secured, and needed aids to instruction added to the equipment r The Friend is taken from the press to make mention of the death of Mother Parker, aged almost 102. She passed away Sunday morning, September 29. Mar) Elizabeth Parker was next to the last of the old missionaries—Mother Rice still is with her household on Kauai. Mother Castle passed away last March as the spring brought its new life to the world. Mother Parker, with the fall time of withered leaves and gathered harvests goes home to meet her old and Mother Castle and very near friend. Mother Parker were so intimate during their lives that they were called David and Jonathan by their families. Mother I'arker came to the islands with the missionary hand May 1. 1833. In July, 1833, the Parkers went to the Marquesas Islands as missionaries, returning in 1834. Since that time Mother Parker never left the islands, until this last journey opened for her eternal delight. The large increase of interest among the Hawaiians in the private schools shows that the young Hawaiians who are too old for the government schools realize that they must gain a better education or go under in the battle for life. This feeling is also very evident among a large class of those who have passed through the Kamehanieha and Hilo schools, and now talk about earnThe effort of County Attorney Cathing money for a better education at the Coast or in Oahu College- The cart to put in cx-SherifT Brown as a need of an advance in order to meet deputy prosecuting attorney was met business conditions is very keenly felt. by the Supervisors with a decided and very proper turn down.

Apparently Kilo and the adjoining district of Puna were settled ages ago by families closely connected with tlv islands of the southern Pacific Ocean. \',o other part of the Hawaiian Islands can give such an abundance of legendary lore which is Polynesian rather than Hawaiian. Almost every valley in all the islands has its own peculiar story, hut Hilo has the folk lore of New Zealand. Samoa and Tahiti grafted into its valleys and along its water courses. Maui, the demi god—the HercuKs of Polynesia—was thought to have his home on the banks of the Wailukj river, on which Hilo is located. His canoe, from which he fished the islands up from the ocean's depths, lies near the mouth of the river changed hit i stone. The Hilo natives tell the same marvelous stories concerning him, as are recorded in the folk lore of New Zealand and many of the other Pacific islands. Ilina was a goddess of the ancient Polynesians. Sometimes she wan known as Hina and sometimes as Ina. The names of Maui and Hina are prob ably more prevalent in the differert Polynesian groups than any others, except Wakca and Papa, who are usually considered the first of the human race. Ilina had her home in the cave under the picturesque Rainbow Falls, neac Hilo. Pele, the goddess of fire, is said by the Rarotongans to have Mahuike, the protector or guardian of fire through all Polynesia, as her grandmother. Mahuike was also Maui's ancestor. The Paao story of Hawaii and Samoa has its counterpart in Mew Zealand. From Paoo was descended the powerful priest family of the Hawaiian Islands, whose descendants arc among the most literary of the llawai ians of today. It would seem as if the southeastern portion of the island of Hawaii had been settled by a different set of Polynesians from those who finally found a home in the islands of Oalni and Kauai. W. D. W. mot �5 THE FRIEND EVOLUSTPINA,DESI EOUS R GNED. The famous plant-wizard, Luther I'.nrbank. recently lectured upon the cactus, telling how he had developed a new species of immense economic value, From the common plant of tlv. desert, which was fearfully spiny ami comparatively innutritions, he had, by means of patient and skilful handling, succeeded in evolving a thornle.-s species of cactus, which was both >f high productive capacity and of highly nutritious quality, while these immensely valuable fodder plants will grow, like their worthless ancestors, on nearly rainless deserts. Mr. Burfoank also meets the inquiry, win no such plants have been evolved naturally. All the Cacti of the deserts are cither dangerously thorny i,i else poisonously bitter. And thus was so simply because any variety ..f (he plant not so defended was at once devoured i>v the hungry and thirsty animals of the deserts, and had no chance tn propagate its species. Natural evolution could beget only such cacti as could in it be eaten. Now I'.urbauk has interposed wPh He .in intelligent Artificial Selection. applies the power of a Designing Mind It direct the hitherto merely Spontaneous Evolution. With the greatest patience and care he plants thousands of cactus seeds, tint of a thousand plants produced he may find one which is (hornless. From the offspring of this one. repeating his careful selections many times, he finally develops a descendant, which possesses all the choice qualities which he desires. The result of his patient labors is a new species of Cactus which is entirely thofnless. These plants will also p;roe. luxuriantly in the driest soils of the desert. Their productiveness is s vigorous, and their roots push to such depths, that they will starve out the native cacti planted in the same row*. At the same time Burbank's new cacti are so richly nutritious that cattle fed upon them produce the richest of milk and beef. And two hundred tons of such valuable fodder can be raised per acre from desert soils ! Thus the deserts are to be made to "rejoice and blossom as the rose." Herein is to be discerned how groundless and absurd is the widely prevalent conclusion that the scientific doctrine of evolution is hostile to a rational belief in the designing activity of an Almighty Creator. The argument is that Science has established the fact that all forms of Lif'* have come into existence by succes- - sive processes of Involution from pre- then may we ascribe the marvels of Therefore, existing nature to the interposition of viously existing forms. there is no need of supposing a De- an Almighty Creator with his legions signing Creator, and the theory of His of angela rejoicing to participate in his activity is inadmissible.

We acknowledge the receipt from of the following books: "The Old and the New," by Cbas. E. Jefferson; "The New Crusade," by the same author; "The Idylls and the Ages," by John F. Genung; "The Little Water Folks," by Clarence Hawkes. We predict that any one dipping into the Jefferson books will read them. The Little Water Folks is fascinating with no suggestion of "nature faking" to give them zest. Taos- Crowell & Co. MAUI'S WELCOME TO REV. E. B. TURNER. One of the most delightful of recent events on Maui was the reception recently tendered by the Paia Church to Rev. and Mrs. E. 15. Turner. The parlors of the church were beautifully decorated for the occasion, and a large reception committee made everyone feel welcome. Mr. D. C. Lindsay, chairman of the program committee, secured all the musical talent on Central Maui. Hon. H. P.
