Hence its tremendous influence upon public opinion. Evil doers in the community hate it and fear it. One of the strongest bits of anti-saloon writing, outside of some of its editorials, which we have seen in a long time was the article by Frederick J. Haskins in the issue of April 9. The truth is the economic argument is surely converting the business interests of the world and the saloon and brewery must go. It will take time, the brewery may print its specious arguments by the millions, but the drink-weakened man and the drinkweakened cause have got to go to the ment. wall as surely as nature's laws work.

What Honolulu can do, and we believe will do, is to give the Fleet an honorable, clean, twentieth-century reception that will be a credit to herself, the Territory and the Nation. The way we treat the Fleet will prove our best promotion trump card. A healthy, happy time, full of innocent fun, in entire keeping with our ideal climate and unique outdoor exercises will do more for this Territory than any other one possible scheme for attracting favoiable mainland com- United States because of the presence therein of calicylie acid as a preservative, has been issued is good news. If this Order be rigorously caried out it will be uossible to test the effect of the withdrawal of this beverage upon the Japanese field hands throughout the Territory. If these laborers think that by raising a hue and cry they will effect anything they may be trusted to squeal as noisily as possible, liut if the purveyors of public opinion among them realize the inevitahleness of Uncle Sam's decrees and pass the word along "shikata get nai," the Japanese community will settle down as quietly as a Mrs. Winslow-syruped baby. It will be interesting to see which of these courses will eventuate. The Friend makes no prophesies concerning so unfathomable an unknown quantity as how Japanese will act in a given case. It is possible that this Order and the effect it causes here may prove our strongest argument in favor of Congressional prohibition of the liquor traffic in Territories. Whatever the outcome the Order is grist to the Temperance Mill. - �5 THE FRIEND was welcome. Everyone recognized the eminent wisdom of the choice. Dr. Cofer is a public servant of wide reputation. His appointment is a formal recognition by our Governor and the Federal authorities, who gave him permission to accept the position, that the office is of national importance. Hawaii's Board of I lealth bears a heavy responsibility because Honolulu is one of the country's great gateways. To keep these Islands free from propagatable disease and pestilence is a task of the first moment to AsiawLeague, embrace all other Americans who think with them, carry their organization to the mainland and extend it slowly but steadily, using money and brains to enlarge their propaganda, bind together a body of voters pledged to down every candidate who will not vote to put Asiatics on the same basis with all other races and they will surely win. In America votes count. Votes are massed by agitation. Eternal justice is on the side of this movement. Therefore it must prevail. It will take time. It will cost work, but it is an entrancing campaign. Whenever a Congressional delegation or a national legislator visits Hawaii, let this Justice to Asia League get in its fine work. God speed the undertaking. the entire Nation. The appointment of Dr. Cofer is a guarantee that all the resources of modern science will he marshalled in this undertaking. Dr. Cofer has shown the highest public spirit in the manner of his acceptance of this responsibility. The Nation, as well as our Territory, is to be congratulated upon having at such a post so devoted and Easter Sunday. able a public servant.

It seemed' as tho the entire people had passed thru a mighty transformation in a moment, comparable only to a conversion of the Pauline type in an individual. It was one of the great experiences of our Nation, well worth living to witness and to share. Something of the same sort is transpiring now, only in a more leisurely and less spectacular fashion and the people of the Union are beginning to see that the Pacific is to be the ocean of the future. Hence a voice from the Pacific calling definite attention to this world movement which is shifting human interest so fundamentally would fall into harmony with the deeper thought of the Nation and meet respectful hearing. Among all the candidates of both parties for nomination to the Presidency there is one and only one who knows at first hand the problem of the Pacific, only one who has fitted himself to deal with the questions vital to both Asia and America which are sure to emerge into first prominence during the next few years, only one in whom the people of the Union can have abiding confidence as a safe leader in the disposal of the Philippines, even as he is the only one who has a definite workable policy for the Pacific and that one is William H. Taft. There is every reason, therefore, in large statesmanship why Hawaii should have endorsed Mr. Taft and should have told its reason for so doing. This reason could have been framed in terms of honest respect for the other candidates on the ground that Mr. Taft had enjoyed opportunities thru the exigencies of public service that had been denied to the other statesmen, all of them good men, who have been proposed for the nomination. The fact that in the past there has been some friction between Mr. Taft and representatives of a number of our Island interests would only have enhanced the value of an endorsement of his candidacy upon such statesmanlike grounds. There would have been no suspicion of currying favor. The action would have been honorable to him, to ourselves and to the Nation. It would have commanded respect and would have carried weight. As it is Hawaii's Republican Party has adopted the role of the chicken with open mouth, ready to run after anyone that will drop corn its way. We are an entirely negligible quantity and must remain such unless the votes chance to run so close that our two will turn the scale. D. S �6 ' THE FRIEND DEBT" "WITHOUT well It The Hawaiian Board looKs well on our printed report. It sounds wants to be able to say it this year and there are about fifteen days of our year (to May 15.) left in which to qualify. TShe CONDITION was recently stated in a letter to our supporters, " What we need is that every one give as much as he did last year "and a little more" to maKe up for shrinKage in unexpected quarters." The "shrinKage " has appeared already and "the little more" too (in some cases) and we are very hopeful. There is an amount of about three thousand dollars as yet unprovided for; that is beyond our expectations from regular givers. ) — "Without debt." LooKed at another way, the Apostle Paul could not say it. On the contrary "I am DEBTOR both to GreeKs and Barbarians"--for "good tidings" was what he said. As to our Island debt in this matter of "good tidings" we have a big charge against us. We may not have to go out of our own families to find "GreeKs." How would our own children pass as "GreeKs,"—whose future will be determined largely by the way we meet our debts? For "Barbarians" (no disparagement intended—the difference lies in priveteges)we have the laborers on our plantations. This year they are pouring into our laps the biggest harvest in our history. Do we owe them nothing—we Christians? Paul added "as much as in me is, J am ready to bring 'good tidings.' " A LEADER PROMOTED. Rev. Charles Cuthbert Hall. D.D., LL.D., president of Union Theological Seminary, New York, and twice Haskell Lecturer in India, died at his home March 25, after a surgical operation, performed as a forlorn hope to save his life, Dr. Hall, who was a cousin of Mrs. A. Francis Judd and Mrs. J. H. Pratt of this city, was one of the most distinguished Christian leaders in the United States. He was a graduate of Williams College, had studied two years in Union Seminary and had supplemented his course by further research in England and Scotland. After a two years' pastorate in Ncwburg, N,. Y„ he was called to the hirst Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn, where he remained until eleven years ago when he was chosen President of Union Seminary. This institution at once entered Upon a new career of enlarged influence. Dr. Hall affiliated it to Columbia University and broadened its seo|x> so as almost to warrant for it the title of a Theological University.

Kusaie, Caroline Islands, Jan. 7, K>o.S. hi ask me to suggest a way of sending money or things down here. I will take you at your word, and tell you just what 1 want. It is nothing very small, nor very cheap, and I have no idea of asking you for it, unless you can get Rockefeller or Carnegie to give you a cheek for it. Put I want a printing press the very most of anything. During the course of a year I do a good deal of translating for our school and for the Knsaien Sunday School. Most of my work is only of temporary value, because we have no press. If I had a small press I could make much better use of my time, the time spent in translating. 1 am translating a small book into Kusaien, but if it has to be sent to America to be printed it will cost a good deal. If I printed it here, by selling it. I could get back part of what I paid for the press. 1 sent for a catalogue some time since, and a driving rain comes in all around the windows. Put it does not rain all the time, even on Kusaie and a room is certainly a luxury. We had a very quiet Christmas, all by ourselves. The Knsaicns celebrated at Lelu, and we sent them some tilings from here, but did not see our way clear to have them here, nor to go around there. We ourselves had our festivities on Christmas eve, the girls seemingly enjoying their simple gifts just as much as they would have larger and more expensive ones. For our feast Christmas Day we had an ox killed. The man killed and dressed it on Christmas eve. and took one-quarter (we gave it, of course) for his trouble. The rest of the beast hung in our canoe house until early the next morning, when I took some of the girls, a knife and an axe, and went down and cut it up. The man who killed it, and our two boys, had all gone to Lelu during the night, and there was no one on this side of the island except Miss Wilson and me, with the girls. So you sec it was a work of necessity. I cut it up in pieces small enough for the girls to carry Up the hill, then Miss Wilson had to take care of it up there. My arm was lame for a week afterwards.

Turner, ter for our native carpenters do not with whom he has been associated in know how to put things together tight, work for the Chinese for the last twenty- five years both in Kohala and on Maui, says that she never knew Mr. Ting to neglect one of his people. He has been one of the most devoted of pastors, and a remarkable man in his loving tact and helpful spirit. Through his efforts work among the Chinese was first begun in Kula, Maui, and he raised the money for the Chinese church and school in that locality. He was also the person under Miss Turner's direction who collected such large sums for the Wailuku Chinese church and parsonage. The funeral service was largely attended by Chinese and towns-people. Seldom do twenty-five hacks in Wailuku follow a body to the grave. Mr. Ting leaves a wife and eight children, all of whom arc an honor to their parents. The eldest son is the well known clerk in the Baldwin National Bank of Kahului. The work on Maui has made steady progress during the last three months. Ulupalakua Church has been dedicated, eight hundred' dollars for which was raised by the Hawaiian people in that district. At the time of dedication fourteen charter members formed the new church. The Wailuku Kaahumanti Church has paid off two-thirds of the debt of over $s<x>; Hale Aloha, in Lahaina, has been completed at a cost of about $2,000, and Union Church, in Wailuku, has made decided improvements in the shape of new doors, a repaired basement which is to he used for a primary Sunday School room for white and Hawaiian children. The introduction of the Pilgrim Responsive Readings—the gift if the Women's Aid Society—has greatly unproved the services of the church. Weekly ofTcring envelopes have aided in bringing in regular contributions. Some discouraging reports were unfortunately circulated in Honolulu concerning the work of the church, hut never in the brief history of the last three years have the audiences been more steady, and the financial and spiritual side of the church in a more flourishing condition. Two new members were received at the last communion. At Lahaina the beautiful lot recently given by Mrs. Abbie K. Campbell-Parker has been put into splendid shape as a public park, and the work on the parsonige begun, so that all may be in readiness for the coming of the new pastor, who is work with our Rev. D. W. K. White on that side of Maui. The work of all our churches is steadily progressing. There is large sympathy and hearty cooperation among all our R. B. Dodge. workers. to �8 THE FRIEND EXPERT OPINION UPON MR. WOOLLEY. The Anti-Saloon League assembled in executive session on April 20 and unanimously adopted with enthusiasm the following minute, which speaks for itself: In bidding farewell to Hon. John G. Woolley, its superintendent since August, 1007, the Anti-Saloon League of Hawaii hereby expresses its deep appreciation of the remarkable work accomplished by him during the few months he has been with us. Coming to these islands in ignorance of the peculiar conditions existing here, Mr. Woolley set about his campaign in the quietest fashion, rapidly accptainted himself with the situation and disappointed both the opponents of temperance and the lukewarm good people by making no mistakes, by inaugurating no noisy propaganda and by addressing himself to the strategic points. With rare tact he cooperated with the liquor commissioners so helpfully that he led them to see the wisdom of the policy of not licensing saloons not demanded by public opinion, and made clear the need of strengthening the present law at several points to safeguard the public weal. Inaugurating a campaign throughout the public and private schools of the Territory, all of which, with a few exceptions, he visited and addressed, he carried the temperance question into the homes of the people with the result that over six thousand children, with the consent of their parents, registered, themselves against alcoholic drinks. This movement was carried on most quietly, with no spectacular features, and, if followed up, promises more for temperance in the Islands than anything ever before attempted. By personal intercourse with men, Mr. Woolley has won over some notable recruits to the Anti-Saloon forces, and his facile pen has had due share in causing the pervasive change of sentiment throughout the Territory against the liquor curse. His coming has marked an epoch in the progress of this reform here. His wisdom in not doing many things that people expected him to do, his unerring insight into what the local situation demanded, and his making good in supplying the demand, have rendered his services on behalf of social uplift in Hawaii invaluable. Our league relinquishes him to the mainland with keen regret so far as our Islands are concerned, but with joyful anticipations of the part he will be called upon to play in the larger field before him. THEODORE A. WALTRIP. Kahului's new pastor, who will reach his field towards the end of this month, is a young man nearing his prime. He took his A. B. at Westfield College, Illinois, and his B. D. at the Union Biblical Seminary in Dayton, Ohio. After graduating from the latter he taught three years in a California Academy and then returned to his Alma Mater to teach for two years. He next served a four years' term as pastor at Lakewood, N. V., and then moved to Phoenix where he was pastor of the Congregational Church for five years. He has a wife but no children. Mr. and Mrs. Waltrip will sail from San Francisco on the Nevadan, May 15. CHINESE IN HAWAII ACTIVE. ASK A LIMITED Nl'Mlil'.R OF I.AMORERS FOR IMPORTANT RICE INDUSTRY ROB OF THE ISLANDS. 3.

They manifested great interest and' enthusiasm, and vet considered the question in a dignified and fair-minded spirit. There was not the slightest antagonism to America, but the most friendly spirit shown in all the discussions. The Chinese felt that they could trust Congress to treat them fairly when conditions were fully understood. When the facts are known certainly Hawaii's rice industry will not be left to go to ruin. Rev. E. W. Thwing made the first address. He was followed by the Chinese Consul, Mr. Tseng Hai, who made a splendid speech and told the Chinese that they should all work together for this important end. He promised to heartily cooperate with them. The following resolutions were passed unanimously and with much enthusiasm, the Chinese Consul promising also to send them to the Chinese ambassadcv at Washington: 1. Resolved, That we, the Chinese of Hawaii, begin a campaign of information, to furnish the people of the United States with real facts as to the Chinese of Hawaii. 2. Resolved, That the important rice industry, begun and fostered by Chinese toil in these Islands, deserves consideration and support from the Congress of the United States. at Lihue the Island. The various reports indicate a prosperous condition of the churches, there being 40 accessions during the past half year. A well equipped new church building at Wanini, in the Hanalci parish, had been dedicated during the term. Among other matters the following created a good deal of interest and dis- cussion : Hawaiian Board Day —A resolution was passed recommending the adoption of one special Sunday in the year as Hawaiian Board Sunday on which occasion the work of the Hawaiian Board should receive the attention of every church in the Islands, with a view to informing the public in regard to this work and stimulating general interest in it. This matter will be brought to the attention of the General Association at Hilo. Permanent Lay Members—A resolution was introduced to add six new names under this head to the membership of the Association. In the spirited discussion which followed it was pointed out that the purpose of the Association was to represent the churches, each church being entitled to representation by pastor and one delegate. This kept a practically even balance of pastoral and lay members. Already there were six permanent lay members in addition to the church delegates, to add to those six more would increase the lav membership out of all proportion to the pastoral membership as �THE FRIEND there were only six pastors present. Furthermore, it was not clear whom these permanent lay delegates were going to represent. The churches had their own elected delegates whom they could control. Apparently these lay members would represent only themselves and would be independent of control, and the twelve of them might easily swamp the Association. It was wisely decided not to add to the present number of such members and in future to restrict the number. A resolution was then introduced to remove the six now in existence, but this was voted down as unwise, retroactive legislation. There was considerable discussion in regard to Mr. Lydgate's so-called ministers' school for the instruction of the churches. At present it is being held at Lihue, Hanapepe and Kilauea. The Hanalei people value this instruction very much and would gladly attend in much larger numbers but for the difficulty of getting to Kilauea. They pointed out that very few attended from Kilauea and therefore they requested that the sessions of this school be transferred to Hanalei. This, however, was strenuously resisted by some who came from the other direction, especially by one old lady wdio declared that she never missed a session, no matter what the weather, though she had to ride ten miles to it. Finally Mr. Lydgate solved the problem by offering to hold an extra session at Hanalei, a proposition which met with instant and unanimous favor. A unanimous petition came from the Waimca church calling Mr. J. A. Akina to the pastorate of that church, which he has been serving as a licentiate for some months with much acceptance. The call was approved by the Association and arrangements made for his ordination. Ile is a man of a good deal of ability and it is hoped that he will prove a valuable addition to the ministry. Very serious charges were preferred against the character of J. K. Apolo, one of the lay members of the Association and special traveling Secretary of the Christian Endeavor Societies. _On investigation, however, by a special committee they were found to be without much foundation and he was exonerated from blame, though cautioned to avoid the appearance of evil. A very enjoyable new feature of the Association was the special music interspersed through the meetings, a feature which it is hoped may be retained in future meetings of this kind. At times the discussions became very spirited indeed, not to say turbulent, and it seemed as though the outcome must be bitterness and enmity, but in every case peace and unity followed and the interests of well being were furthered. 9 The new Secretary elect, Rev. W. B. Parting with the song "Till we meet Oleson, was received by the Association again," the youthful audience gave place with much satisfaction, and unfamiliar to an audience scarcely inferior in size, as he was with the affairs of our churches of those of larger experience who made he exercised a very salutary influence heaven's arches ring in praise of the at one or two critical junctures.

KAUAI NOTES. The Lihue Church (Foreign) observed Holy Week as a week of prayer with much interest and inspiration. The services were held in the afternoon mostly and were attended by Hawaiians as well as whites. On Good Friday there was a special service appropriate to the occasion which was largely attended. On Easter Sunday there was a special service, largely musical and responsive, including a fine anthem by the choir and a very pleasing solo by Mrs. W. H. Rice. A special collection was taken for the .American Board. At Koloa there were special Easter services, with excellent music by the choir and a special collection for the American Board. The Easter spirit also reached Fleele where a similar Easter service was enjoyed' and a similar collection taken. EASTER CELEBRATIONS. Ten Sunday Schools gathered in the large auditorium of the Central Union Church for their union Easter celebration, crowding both the main floor and the gallery and many standing in the remaining floor space. For lack of room the large schools of Kawaiahao and Kamakapili could not 1)e invited to join, but had been requested to be represented by delegates. An abundance of lilies and asters, ferns, vines and grasses lent their loveliness to the occasion. Hymns that had been practiced for the occasion for several weeks past were rendered in unison that was inspiring. A few minutes were allotted to each school to render some exercise prepared by its scholars, and a fitting address was delivered by Mr. B. Y. Mitchell, on the nobility of the life of sacrifice. A flutter of excitement was experienced in the expectant throng when the "Sunshine" song, specially prepared for the day, was called for. Many parts of the program had been rendered in strange tongues, but now in English from every part of the building and with an enthusiasm akin to the song of the Angels, ranp out the words, " 'Tis sunshine, 'tis sunshine, that makes the world so bright," and the effect was truly thrilling. The Japanese Easter anthem, "Yomigaeri no Uta," was rendered on the evening of Faster Sunday in both the Nuuanu and the Makiki churches. At the Makiki Church service thirty-eight adults and two infants were baptized at the Easter communion service. FOURTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MAKIKI CHURCH. The fourth anniversary of the organization of the Makiki Church, and the second of the erection of its fine church edifice, was celebrated on Wednesday evening, April Bth. All the sliding doors hail to be thrown open to accommodate the audience, and addresses by Rev. Wm. P. Oleson and Consul Saito were enthusiastically received. A special piece was rendered' by a male choir of fifteen voices. The Consul spoke eloquently of the elemental principles of righteousness which exalt a people, and showed that while Japan had made praiseworthy and remarkable advance in the material civilization and wisdom of the West, she was incredibly slow in embodying in her life the spiritual forces which are the real source and power of that civilization. Material power and advance is but a bauble —a single hole in the bottom of a battleship and its power is forever annihilated ; a single defect in material progress and it is undermined ; but the civilization which is embodied in high spiritual ideals and has its foundations in eternal righteousness, has alone the guaranty of permanence. At the close of the service many gathered around the pastor, Rev. T. Okumura, and expressed their congratulations on the work which has been so signally blessed. The church, which began four years ago in a small room nine feet square with three members, has at the date of this anniversary a membership of 170, two Sunday Schools with 147 members, and a thoroughly wideawake Christian Endeavor Society. It is carrying on a mission in Kakaako and in Moiliili and is pushing its activities in every direction with a modesty and efficiency which betoken a deep spiritual life pervading its pastor and people. �10 THE FRIEND MAKIKI JAPANESE CHURCH ( See page 9. ) NOTES FROM THE FIELD BY FRANK S. SCUDDER The Kingdom of Heaven is like THE OAHU ASSOCIATION The Oahu Association, which was in session from April 10-14, WSI an unusually representative gathering of our workers, delegates being present from the Hawaiian, Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese churches. The business of the Association was mainly that connected with the affairs of the churches as such, and the Sunday School and Christian Endeavor, but subjects of social reform also came in for a good share of attention. Early in the program the keynote of the occasion was struck in a stirring address from the new Secretary of the Hawaiian Board, the Rev. Win. B. Oleson, who in a picturesque style and with striking illustrations spoke of the splendid partnership in which we are called to participate in winning the world to Christ, and how Christ depends upon us men to carry out our side of the partnership into which he has entered with us. One of the many telling illustrations of the power of cooperation was that of a stage party which was stuck in a heavy unto Treasure Hid in road at the bottom of a hill. The driver fastened a rope to the stage and called upon all the passengers to lend a hand until the hill top was gained, after which they might ride again. All cheerfully complied and bent their strength to the task, the driver pulling in the lead, and the stage went Spinning up the grade. Gradually, however, the driver felt an increasing burden, progress was slow, and at last the stage came to a stop. Turning about he found that the travelers, wearied of the sport, had <lropj)ed back one by one and resumed their places in the stage. This was a picture of a church which leaves all its work to be done by its pastor, With equally telling illustrations he showed how by cooperation watches are made, magnificent buildings are reared, and steamers are sent freighted across the seas, and that no task can baffle those who arc in partnership with God. a Field* ciation was the new plan of separate sessions for the different races. All met together for devotional exercises and for the English addresses and business transactions, hut papers on assigned topics had been prepared by Hawaiians, Chinese and Japanese, each of whom in his own tongue delivered his paper in separate session before the people of his own nationality. Afterwards all met again in joint assembly and the principal points of the papers and discussion which came up in the separate sessions were given in English and interpreted so that each nationality could get the benefit of the wisdom and counsel of the other. This plan was put into practice for this time, as an experiment, and on a limited scale. It proved so satisfactory, however, that hereafter the time allotted for separate sessions will be considerably increased. Worthy of especial mention was the paper by Mr. T. Kajiro, on the subject, VARIOUS NATIONALITIES IN SEPARATE "The Attitude of our Churches and PeoSESSION. ple to the Reform Movement." He had made a special investigation of the JapanA distinguishing feature of this Asso- ese bath houses of Honolulu, and found �11 THE FRIEND. them sadly in need of reformation. No such condition can be found in all Japan as exists here and the Japanese are both ashamed and aggrieved that such a menace not only to their own people, but to the 1 lawaiians and Chinese who also frequent these places, should be countenanced in this city. For over thirty years, he said, the bath houses in Japan have been under the strictest governmental regulations, and he hoped that the people of Honolulu would take up the cause in behalf of this reform, and subject the bath houses, not merely to inspection and supervision, which is useless, but to the rigid regulation of law. Papers were also presented on"The Christian Endeavor and the Church," "The Pastor and His Sunday School." A concert was one of the numbers on the evening program, and on Sunday the Association was favored with an address hy Hon. J. (i. Woolley, who made an earnest appeal for a manly stand by the people of these Islands against the destroying power of the liquor traffic. GLEANINGS FROM QUARTERLY REPORTS. Rev. Messrs. Ctilick and Scudder in their tour among the Japanese through Kona and on Maui in February at every meeting had excellent audiences and earnest attention. Nothing was more apparent in these fields than the beneficial influence of the resident missionaries upon the evangelists within their territory, and the example of fraternity among the races, made so evident by the oneness of the Christian forces in their work. From Maui we get tidings of the dedication of a new Hawaiian church at Ulupalakua, eight hundred dollars of the total cost being raised by the Hawaiian people in that district. The Wailuku Kaahumanu Church has paid off two-thirds of its debt of $500; Hale Aloha, in Lahaina, has been completed at a cost of about $2000; and decided improvements have been made in the Union Church at Wailuku. From Hilo we learn that the First Foreign Church received five into membership at the last communion; and that eight were received into membership in the Portuguese Church at that place. Mr. Ho Tsz Tsung, our Chinese evangelist at Hilo holds street meetings down town each Sunday night when the weather permits. Central Kona Church has a new $90 organ, paid for, and only $16 of the cost came from outside friends. At a recent Christion workers' conference in Kona, Hawaii, under the direc- tion of Rev. Dr. Baker there was an attendance of 21, the members coming from considerable distances. Such themes as these were discussed: "The Home and what it should be"; "Christianity in relation to public affairs"; "Prayer meeting hints." I lelani Church, in Kona, Hawaii, dedicated a new chapel three months ago on land acquired for it DV the Hawaiian Board last year. The old parsonage on the shore furnished the material for this 20x40 building, and the people paid the cost of erection, $118.85. They have just bought two koa trays with fifty communion glasses. The need of this chapel is seen by a maximum attendance the past quarter of 92, and" a minimum of 68. Rev. James Unchurch of the Kailua Church, Kona, Hawaii, reports a maximum attendance during the first quarter of 1908 of 100, and a minimum of 50; at Sunday School 104 and 53, respectively; and at Christian Endeavor meetings 60 and 46. Twelve persons have joined the church on confession and twelve babies have been baptized. He has visited 45 families in the three months and his salary is all paid. At the Pookela Portuguese Church, at Makawao, Rev. M. (i. Santos received seven young people at the recent communion, five of them being on profession of faith. The Sunday School, under the leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Tavares, is making progress both in attendance and efficiency. The coming home of Miss Mikahala Awana, a graduate of Kaniehameha, adds another valuable worker to the school. tainly inherit the earth, and find a great deal of pleasure in the heritage. There are times when everything goes well and a tour is an all round pleasure trip, and again there are times when the problems which face us are sufficiently absorbing to render us oblivious to the charms of the loveliest scenery and to things which otherwise would be of interest and delight. A recent trip to Kauai was unusually free from the vexatious questions which often confront us. As far as the work was concerned, we seemed to be carried along on the flood tide of interest, but marred indeed was our happiness, most painfully marred by the heart rending tidings of the sorrow which had befallen our beloved fellow workers in Hilo, coming with special force to us, who, unable to communicate with our loved ones, realize every day that sorrow may have entered, unknown to us, into our homes. With this accustomed burden on our hearts no one could feel more keenly than we the lightning stroke which befell our friends, Mr. and Mrs. Shields. No sorrow touches a deeper chord of sympathy, for every home which has been gladdened by the merry sunshine of little ones, and many a heart that longs in vain for it, enters the shadow with them. So breathes the universal sympathy in the beautiful words of James Whitcomb Riley: I IIAVK NO CHILD TO ME.

This is a camp of promise. On Sunday his Sunday School all lined up in fine order out of doors and marched in for the special purpose of hearing an American speak to them in Japanese. Then followed services, morning and evening, with the Communion of the Lord's Supper and the baptism of five persons. On Monday we visited the Japanese in the hospital and Mr. Tsuji obtained permission to go twice a week or of tener, to read the Bible to, and otherwise comfort his sufferiner fellow countrymen. Thence to Camp Kapaia where we visited inquirers, and then back to Lihue where So children, who are receiving Japanese education, and daily Christian guidance from Mr. Tsuji and Mr. Takeda, kindly listened to my exhortation on "Settling disputes with coals of fire." In the evening we had a meeting of special prayer for the new members of the church. (hi the following morning Mr. Tsuji began his Bible reading in the hospital, and Dr. Ptitman kindly furnished us with new illustrations for preaching, by taking us into a dark room and show ing us our own bones and other mysteries which the X-Ray divulges. In this spectacular manner my work in Lihue came to a close. - the field is well shepherded. Audiences that before were characterized by curiosity, this time gave evidence of earnest attention to Christian teaching. ministers' SCHOOLS, A striking feature of the Association was a practical illustration of Mr. Lydgate's conducting his classes among the Hawaiian workers. These classes are called "Ministers' Schools," and are held monthly for the instruction of pastors, Sunday School teachers and others, at Lihue, llanapcpe anil Kilauea. Sermon sketches are presented on the blackboard by different members of the class, and criticisms elicited which arc always taken in a good spirit and often amid flashes of wit and humor. So earnest and excited do they become that even ladies join in the exercises and often, Mr. Lydgate says, the sermon sketches by the ladies give the paetori reason to put forth their lust energies lest they be outdone. CAMPAIGN. The first evening of the Association was celebrated hv the Japanese by an evangelistic meeting in which each of the evangelists and tin- superintendents presented some aspect of the gospel. The following evening Koloa was stormed hv the same company. The Koloa evangelist, Mr. Kotani, has steadily won for himself the favor and confidence of both lapanese and Americans. We heard nothing but good words spoken of the influence he is exerting. He is specially fortunote in having the sympathetic and tactful cooperation of I)r. and Mrs. Waterhouse, who aid him in his night school as well as in his evangelistic work, and by c.\Mi' their open-heartednoss and evident interest in Christian work among the Japanese are winning the hearts of all the people. As is their custom, they were present at the meeting that evening, and Mrs. Waterhouse favored us with a solo, lending a touch to the service which is all too unusual in the experience of camp life. Next we went to Makaweli, where Mr. Takahashi and his family have gone to fight a good fight. The moral effect of red dust may well be studied here. It is especially hard for refined people and they deserve the reward of heroes for the work they are doing. On Saturday the members of our party scattered, each to his own field, only one remaining to go with Mr. Tsuji over his Lihue field. OPPORTUNITIES AT I.IHI'K. The program here began with » "camp meeting" at Halehaka, with a large and attentive audience, among whom were many enthusiastic little singers, one twelveyear-old lassie fairly leading the crowd with her strenuous voice. I asked Mr. Tsuji if he could not start a Sunday S.woNAKA. In one week, besides having a shaic in the Association meeting, we had gained new insight into the life and problems of our fellow workers and the people of their fields had heard the gospel presented through the coloring of several twenty-seven different speeches, opportunity offered, through indi- minds in and, as vidual persuasion ; so, grateful for the Opwe had enjoyed, and the hearing which our message had received, we exchanged our parting greeting, "Sayonara,"—if we must part, we must.

Miyamori, of the Nuuaini Street Church, of his intention to return at once to Japan, Mr. Miyamori assumed the pastorate of this church only last July, and by his genial and faithful service here had' made many warm friends. The olive branch was the symbol of his ministry and his departure is a matter of deep reMrs. Miyamori was also faithgret. fully discharging the duties of a matron at the Japanese Woman's Home, where she will be greatly missed. On hearing of Mr. Miyamori's resignation, representatives of the Hawaiian Board called upon him, and upon the officers of the church, and all united in requesting him to postpone his resignation. Declining the proposition, he was asked to accept a call from the Hawaiian Hoard to some part of its field, but having already completed his plans for returning to Japan, he could not he persuaded to remain. Mr. and Mrs. Miyamori sailed by the Hongkong Maru on May I. We regret the departure from the Islands of such valuable workers as Mr. and Mrs. Miyamori, but wish them success in their future field of labor. Mr. J. I. at Olaa, Takami, formerly evangelist sailed for Japan by the Hong- kong Maru, May 1. Notwithstanding the four extra pages in the last issue of the 'Friend' these reports were crowded out from our Educational picture gallery, and had to be held over to this month: MILLS INSTITUTE NOTES. The work of the Mills Institute is proceeding in a most satisfactory and encouraging manner. While both teachers and pupils arc earnestly looking forward to the time when the larger opportunities of the Mid-Pacific Institute shall be opened to them, they are now doing their best to be worthy of a place in that undertaking. Never has the work so long carried on in Chaplain Lane been in a more flournishing condition. Principal Merrill and his faithful assistants are steadily endeavoring to advance the standard of scholarship and raise in every -way the religious and moral tone of the institution. The register of the boarding and day departments for this year shows an attendance of fully one hundred and twenty, nine of whom arc Japanese and three Koreans. The additional opportunities for more advanced study now offered have tended in a marked degree to keep in the school a class of students who arc most desirable and who would otherwise not be attracted. Several of the young men have expressed a desire to fit themselves for the gospel ministry. In order to continue to do the best work at least one more teacher is needed and unless funds can be obtained' for his support the work will be seriously crippled and retarded. It is hoped that friends of the work will be led to see the importance of continuing to advance these lines of development which are so promising.

Ellis, of the Philadelphia Press, who has just been on a tour extending over a year, visiting the mission stations of the world, states that the only social and moral hope for the nations of the East is in the missionary enterprise. Hawaii Cousins A housewarming was given at the "Old Mission Home" in the afternoon of April 4th. The Cousins and their friends were received in the old historic reception room where royalty was entertained in the long ago, and where, no doubt, every missionary to these islands has gathered in consultation and knelt in prayer. Many guests explored the numerous nooks and cupboards of the old place before going through to the makai lawn where chairs were arranged for the audience. Here a very �14 pleasant half hour was spent among friends, and "Aunt Martha" Chamberlain, so long absent from the meetings, sat in her carriage and held a reception all her own, on the very grounds where she played as a little child, and "kicked the old idols in disdain." A triangular platform filled the corner between the kitchen and main building. This was lined on two sides with cocoanut leaves, canopied by a sail from a Hawaiian schooner and covered with two large Hawaiian mats. Here Mrs. W. F. Frear, in her pleasing manner, read a letter from Dr. S. E. Bishop, which is given below, and after telling, in picturesque words, of the arrival of the mail, six days from Maui, twelve days from Hilo, and long, weary months from the home-land, introduced Mrs. Theodore Richards, who read three of these letters, yellow with age and full of holes, written by Mother Cooke more than three score years ago. These were so interesting that requests have been made for a second reading, and we hope they may appear in The Friend. Then a Lulaby was sung. An old time missionary mother, on her way to "Mother's Meeting," dressed in her long brown cloak and "calash," stopped by the cradleside to still the waking baby and sing, "Hush my babe, lie still and slumber." After this came the special number of the program, a presentation of Hawaii of Long Ago, prepared by Mr. James Wilder under the auspices of the special committee from the Woman's Board, Mrs. W. F. Frear, Mrs. E. A. Weaver and Miss Pope. The scene was laid in 1840, and represented a half dozen missionary ladies convened from the different islands for "General Meeting," with a new arrival from Boston, and in a sewing circle, and over their cup of tea, talking of their life-work with its sunshine and shadows, its humor and pathos: while into their midst came a princess, the premier of Oahu, bringing as gifts rich rolls of silk which the beauty-hungry eyes of the missionaries were obliged to decline for their work's sake. The princess and her attendants, the kahili-bearers and hand-maidens, were Kamehameha school-girls of today, and the acting fore-mothers were six young ladies, grandchildren of the mission, representing eight original mission families. The furnishings, Mrs. Frear kindly explained, were genuine relics of the olden time, Mother Parker's drop-leafed mahogany table, Mother Armstrong's sewing chair, Mother Lowell Smith's little silver sewing-bird, the Andrews' cradle and THE FRIEND the high chair from which Gen. S. C. Armstrong dangled his little feet. The ladies were gowned in the costumes of sixty years ago—some of them in veritable dresses of their ancestors, while the words they spoke were, many of them, literal quotations from the missionary mothers, culled from letters and diaries penned by their hands. The exercises closed with a very pretty little poem by Mrs. Frear, "Little Sewing Bird," happily rendered by Miss Mary Thurston Taylor Kluegel. Dr. Bishop's Letter. April 3rd. To the Secretary of the Cousin's Society : Dear Madam: In view of the gathering of the Society at the Old Mission Home tomorrow, may I, as the oldest survivor of their number, and debarred by infirmity from being present, send my cordial greetings. That old house holds a strong place in my cherished memories, as the home of the Bingham family in the Thirties, and in which the Bishop family repeatedly were guests during the general meetings. I wish to specify my earliest distinct memory of the house. It was in the afternoon of May 17, 1832, seventy-six years ago, when I was five years old. The whale-ship "Averick" had just arrived and landed the large Fourth Reinforcement of Missionaries. This large company of young people were gathered into the Bingham parlor to meet the older missionaries. I was present and was especially attracted by the pleasant aquiline features of the young Wm. P. Alexander, a type of face quite new to my experience. He sat close to the west side of the door leading to the dining-room. The Armstrongs, Lymans, Emersons, etc., were seated around the room. These young folks were soon helping to make much history, as well as beget a notable progeny. May your meeting to remember the Fathers'and Mothers be pleasant and profitable. Faithfully yours, SERENO E. BISHOP. The annual meeting of the Cousins was held in the same place on Saturday, April the 25th, at half past three o'clock. Following so soon after the housewarming there was not a large attendance, but the short program was exceptionally fine. After the usual open- ing and business—"Blest be the tie," prayer by Dr. John Gulick, reading of the reports of secretary and treasurer, and election of officers, the audience was favored by two beautiful songs by the Kawaiahao girls: "Foaming Waves of the Sea" and "Praise to the Creator." We especially thank these young ladies as they gave of their own recreation time for our pleasure. Then followed Mrs. Dillingham's excellent paper, reminiscent of her father and mother, and a charming letter from Princess Bernice Pauahi, (read by President Cooke), written from the school for royal chiefs and giving many incidents of life as seen by a lovely girl of "sweet sixteen." We trust that this letter as well as Mrs. Dillingham's paper may appear in "The Friend." Miss Agnes Judd then read some verses written in 1857 by Robert Tinker, a young man of twenty years, a tribute to a loved sister born upon the sea when her parents were returning from these Islands. This was followed by an article read by Mr. F. W. Damon published' in the "Jubilee Celebration" of 1887, concerning the Old Mission Home when it was new. Mr. Damon said this was especially appropriate now, as we were holding the first annual meeting after the renovation in these actual surroundings. There were remarks of interest by Mr. Damon, Mr. Carter and Mrs. Dillingham about securing relics and mementos of the missionaries, and Mr. Andrews showed a copy of the first edition of the Hawaiian Gospels, bound in scarlet, also two volumes of the Bible. The latter had belonged to the king, to Mr. Wyllie and to Father Andrews. These were among the treasures presented to the Society within the past two months. The officers elected were: President, Arthur C. Alexander; vice-president, Hon. G. R. Carter; secretary, Mrs. R. W. Andrews; treasurer, Lyle A. Dickey, and recorder, R. W. Andrews. Word has recently been received of the death of Mrs. Abbie Marina Tinker Purdon. She was the second daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Reuben Tinker, and was born on board the whaleship "William Perm" on the return voyage of her parents from these islands. She was married from the home of her brother, Hon. Robert H. Tinker, at Rockford, 111., Oct. 13. 1869, to the late Rev. Dr. Henry Purdon of St. James Memorial Church, Titusville, Pa. Here they lived for nearly thirty years until his death in December, �15 THE FRIEND. 1898. Her youngest daughter, Alice, died in April, 1006, and there remains of the household but one daughter, Marina Louise. The hearts of the Cousins are especially saddened by the cabled news of the death of our dear Mrs. Cornelia Beckwith Damon. With her departure, a bright light seems to have gone out. Her presence carried joy and gladness everywhere. Her hands, her voice, her smile, her cheery words, were for her friends, and for the stranger as well. Though sorrows came into her life they only sweetened her character, and every tear was as a raindrop that reflects the sun and made a rainbow of love about her beautiful life. In her last letter to the cousins she said, "How I love my dear Hawaii! and how I long, sometimes, to be back!" But she has reached a more lovely Paradise, and her sweet alto, we believe, is swelling the praise of Him she served so well below. Butte, Montana, No. 900 W. Quartz St. Dear Aunt Mattie:—We are just as proud as we can be of one week passed without any snow-storm. Our opposite neighbor has two crab-apple trees that have lived over two winters, and are the pride and delight of the whole neighborhood. Sunday, a beautiful day, the whole family was out looking the poor little trees over for signs of life, and today the swelling buds are very much in evidence. To be sure, last year on the 24th of June we had a driving blizzardy snowstorm, so our troubles are not yet over, but that does not happen every year. When I was in Bozeman last year I met Miss Helen Brewer. She and her brother are teaching in the agricultural college. Miss Brewer is very anxious to go to Honolulu. We don't meet many island people here. Butte is off the main line across the continent. I like Butte. I would much rather be here in the winter, but Great Falls is far prettier in summer. The manager's house is up on a bluff, overlooking the river, and our veranda is in constant use, unless, as was the case last summer, it is too cold. I hear very little from home or from Ellen. They are all too busy to write much I fancy. Lewis is in Bates College, doing well. David is working hard in the high school. The journey out here did both boys a world of good. Much love to all.

DIED. ©UR Book Rooms Less than a year ago the Board found it necessary to enlarge its Book and Supply Department and to find an experienced man to manage it. We announced this change to our friends asking them to send us their business, particularly such orders as they were in the habit of sending East. Our request met with a ready response and in spite of the fact we were obliged to wait until November, to get our new stock of books, our sales have largely increased, amounting in the last six month to nearly seven thousand dollars. Our workers have found it very convenient to have a well selected stock of Song Books, Concert Exercises, Maps, Charts Bibles, Testaments (in various languages) Sunday School, Church and C. E. workers handbooks, Reward Cards, Missionary and other good books; organs and Communion Sets on hand where they could see them before buying. Many bear testimony to the district Missionary work the Bookstore has done. If our friends will all send us their business we can do more. Many are still sending away for books and other supplies, they could purchase here at just as satisfactory prices and often without waiting. Won't you all give us a trial this year and see what a credit our Book Department can be to the Board. STILLING—ApriI 5, Johann Heinrich Stilling of Honolulu.
