b\ a year or two at the Massachusetts
Agricultural College.
Returning to the Islands in 1871, Mr.
Cooke entered the employ of the old firm
of Castle &amp; Cooke, which was founded
by his father and Mr. S. N. Castle. At
the time of his entry into business, the
fit m comprised S. N. Castle, J. P. Cooke,
T. B. Athcrton and the ITstate of A. S.
Cooke. Mr. Castle taught book-keeping
to a good inanv of the young men of
those days, and all of the business institution and training Charles had was
derived from this teaching. Tn later
years he was recognised as one of the
finest accountants in the country. At
first, assistant, he soon became head
book-keeper and cashier in the growing
and important business of that concern.
But. partly because he felt that others
of the young nun of the families had
claims on the firm and in part because
he was stirred to strike out for himself,
be accepted an offer from Lewers and
P'ckson, and, with Robert Lewers, became a partner with Joshua G. Dickson.
This was in 1877. Mr. Dickson died i'
Tidy. 1880. Within a few months the
"surviving partners bought the interest
oi the Dickson Estate and launched the
new firm of Lewers and Cooke, which
continued to carry on the lumber business began so many years before by C.
H. Lewers. This is now the well-known
corporate concern called Lewers and

It was during his early connection
with Lewers and Cooke, that his keen
business instincts led him to take a more
active interest in the development of the
country under tbe stimulus of the Reciprocity Treaty. His sagacity and clear

tions of res|K)iisibility in many business the same position in Ewa, Waialua and

ventures. He took hold of established
si,gar plantations and did much in reel ganization and other ways to make
them paying concerns. He believed that
our industrial field offered rare opportunities for the useful investment of capital, and urged the establishment of another bank which should be owned and
controlled by the business men of the
community. During these years he became an acknowledged financial leader.
But his energies were not confined to
the sugar and mercantile industries. Appreciating the danger of depending on a
single industry he urged the establishment of other enterprises and joined
heartily in formulating plans to establish the growth of tea and coffee on a
firm commercial basis. He was a director and deeply interested in the Kon
Coffee and Tea Plantation, and, though
it fa led, he often said that the experience was not lost; it would result in
good to the Islands eventually. The correctness of his judgment has since been
amply demtmst rated.
In 1807 the Bank of Hawaii was organized and opened its doors Decembc*
27. He was one of its charter members,
but as the family was then residing M
California he declined active participa
tion in its affairs. Following the deal
of Ned Jones and the temporary retirement of Mr. P. C. Jones from active
business, he however finally accepted
with some reluctance, the presidency ot
the bank and assumed the duties of tinposition in September. 1898. At that
time the bank had a paid-up capital ol
$300,000, but through his energy am'
able leadership its business so developed
and increased, despite the establishment
cf two other banks and two trust companies since 1898, that when he laid as de
active leadership January 1. 1909.. it ha&lt;'
a paid-up capital of $000,000, undiv'ded
profits of nearly $500,000 more, and the
largest banking business in the Terri
tory.
It is almost true that he had the golden touch. Nearly everything he became
interested in and labored for was prosperous. To illustrate the truth of this,
one only has to remember the names of
some of his enterprises—Ewa, Waialua.
Lihue, Koloa. Hawaiian Agricultural.

the Hawaiian Agricultural Company,
and he was still an active director in
many other corporations.
Those who have dealt with Mr. Cooke
will testify to his rare business ability.
He was shrewd, yet bold: conservative,
yet far sighted. One quality, which has
had a fine influence in Hawaii, was h s
unfailing optimism. It was always present and vigorously exercised when most
needed, and has done much to sustain
when everything appeared dark and
hopeless to others. All will remember
bow perfectly cool and confident he was
during the sudden panic of 1007, when
our close relations with New York seemed to render disaster here certam. Always cordial and courteous, it was a
pleasure to deal with him, and though
one could not always succeed in interestinir him in some business enterprise
vet disappointment was tempered by his
s\ mpathetic kindness.
To those who only met Mr. Cooke in
the walks of business, it would seem that
tbe story of his life was completed with
the commercial history of Ivs times and
hi.i connection therewith. But to those
who knew him well, business was only
one side of the largeness of his nature,
and the sweetest and best was found in
hit social, religious and domestic life.
April 30, 1874. he was married to Anna C. Rice, daughter of the late William
Rice, of Lihue, Kauai. Of the issue of
this marriage all live but two, and all
have settled in Hawaii, becoming useful
and valuable citizens, thus following in
the footsteps of their father. They arc

Ii is not too much to say that in his
home, with his family, Mr. Cooke's life
and influence were nearly perfect. "His
children will rise up and call him blessed" can truly be said of his family. As
business developed and his circumstances became easy: with his wife he became a patron of art, and the beautiful
things with which his houses abound,

and other art products.

NEEDED.
The present huildit g occupied by the
Young Men's Christian Association was
built twenty-seven years ago. For that
day its arrangement was excellent, providing as it did a reading room, game
room and a large assembly hall.
Tbe
Association in those days was not looked upon strictly as a social center, but
largely as a center for religious gather-

position. The Association has found its
mission to these boys anel much tnemey
and time are being devoted to boys'
work.
The old building has occupied a place
of large usefulness and real service in
the community. Has not the time come
when the business men of Hawaii will
provide this institution with a buileling
which will enable us to take advantage
of the years of Association experience
here and elsewhere, and develop an organization that will fill the large vacant
place in the life of the average young

ings.

it found that it could reach a man far
more effectively by reaching him from
all sides of his nature, and eelucational
ami physical departments were added to
grasp this greiwing opportunity. Since

then the Association has had another
vision of opportunity, and now sees that
perhaps its best approach to the heart
of a man is througii his social nature.
When the old lady in the poor house
was asked how she spent her time, she
said: "Sometimes I sits an' thinks, an'
sometimes I jist sits." This plan of life
was very well for the old lady, but the
modern young man is built on more
strenuous lines than "jist sittin' and
thinkin.'" He must have something to
occupy his time, and if he cannot find
it where the influences are good, experience shows that he will find it somewhere else. Occupation he must have.
So the Association building of today is
a great social center and reaches young
men from this most approachable side
of their natures. It now plans to occuply all a man's spare time, giving him
no excuse for going to the bad.
The present Y. M. C. A. building is
not so equipped.
It has practically no
equipment for social work, and its provisions for educational and physical activities are entirely outgrown. Another
serious defect in the present equipment
is that no rooms are provided for the
boys under eighteen. Recent years of
research have impressed it upon the
educators of our nation that the critical
period in a boy's life is the years between twelve and eighteen. Home interests and influences are insufficient
even at their best, and where the home
influence is bad or indifferent the adolescent boy is indeed in an unfortunate

Young Men's Christian Association, by

and its call is being heard. The International Committee of Y. M. C. A.'s

the highest in the percentage of its
members in educational classes. As its

The Western States during the past
few years have been experiencing a
most remarkable era of building activity.
Ihe Y. M. C. A. —always an expression
of the best life of the city—has naturally shared in this movement, and now
every city west of the Rocky Mountains
has either erected a large modern Y. M.
C. A. building or has money raised lor
that purpose. Ihe West is not held
back by precedent, and is continually
on the lookout for new ideas promoting
efficiency, and has seized upon the V
M. C. A. with a most encouraging enthusiasm. Buildings costing from $50,-000 to over half a million have been
erected in Portland, Seattle, Tacoma,
Walla Walla, Salt Lake, Riverside,
Stockton, Spokane and other cities. Los
Angeles has completed a magnificent
structure costing over $600,000.

Friendship, safeguarding of character,
lack of solituele—these are the values,
says President Tbwing of Western Reserves University, that characterize tbe
college dormitory. If the young man
in college—the ideal environment for
friendships, in an atmosphere intended
primarily to focter and develop character, meeting daily with many other
men of like interests —needs some means
of supplying friendship ,ot safeguarding
character and preventing solitude, how
much more does a young man in the
city need them. Young men coming
from the Coast and going to work in
our local establishments, frequently remaining in the city months and even
years, forming few friendships,—and
some of these not uplifting,—need some
such institution as an association dormitory, where they will be thrown daily
into constact with men of clean character and high ideals. If the young
man is not a church goer—and only one
young man in five belongs to the church
—his opportunities for forming wholesome friendships are even less, and bis
need of the dormitory greater. Happily,
this class of men will come to the Association where they will not go to the
church. Many of us who have lived in
college dormitories know that it is there
that we have formed our richest and
most uplifting friendships, lo these
friends we have gone with our difficulties and temptations and problems, our
Hopes and our successes, and found in
their companionship and sympathy the
necessary stimulus to work for the best
things in life. The average young man
coming into the city has had no such
opportunity and the privilege of the
Association of supplying these elements
in the lives of young men is very great.
But the positive work of supplying
men with the opportunity of forming
friendships is, perhaps, exceeded by the
opportunity of safeguarding the welfare
of those whose characters have not yet
been formed and, in other cases, providing a wholesome environment in
which men who have made a failure in
other places can start again. Many a
time during these past three years that
we have been Secretary in Honolulu we
could have helped a man onto his feet
and into character if we had had an
Association dormitory, in which the men
could have lived during the formative
or rebuilding period. Without a dormitory the Association influence can

S. (862. In the Senate of the United
States, April 19, 1909.
Mr. Johnson, of North Dakota, introduced the following; bill which was
read twice and referred to the Committee on Pacific Islands and Porto Rico.
A Bill to prohibit selling of intoxicating beverages in Territory of Hawaii.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House
or Representatives of the United States
of America in Congress assemblcel. That
any person, except agents hereinafter
specified, who shall manufacture or sell,
directly or indirectly, or expose for sale
oi advertise as for sale in saiel Territory
any vinous, malt, or fermented liquors
oi any other intoxicating beverages of
any kind whatsoever, or shall knowingly allow such manufacture or sale in any
shop, restaurant, hotel, drug store, or

building or premises which he owns o'
controls, or who shall give away any inte xicating drink except in his own private residence, shall be punished by I
fine not exceeding five hundred dollars
and by imprisonment for not less than
one month nor more than five years,
with fe&gt;rfeiture to the Territory of all
liquors and bar-room fixtures and furniture found on the premises; and it shall
be the duty of district attorneys and of
all executive officers to prosecute all
violations of this Act.
Sec. 2. That for a second or subsequent conviction the fine and imprisonment shall be double that of the preceding conviction, and in case of a land-

anel man ?

Here is a chance.

It is plain that Hawaii the beautiful
is to be Hawaii the strong, the citadel
of American sea-power, a working model e&gt;f American civilization. The loveliness remains and will remain. But
islanel life has sheel the quiet rainbow
circumflex, and moves henceforth with
the acute accent.
Strength means ability and opportunity, and these, together, mean responsibility. We have come to the day of
tie powerful.
The readers of The Friend are the
most powerful people of these islands.
Human life in the Islands is like
the land—luxuriant to windward, but
weak on the lee side. The readers of
The Friend have the windward of Hawaiian life. Generations of good blood
pour self-control and self-respect into
their veins. The trade wind of mampenticosts blows cool and sweet through
all the chambers of their consciousness.
Wealth and influence are in their hands
by inheritance and achievement.
Over the range is desert; and he is
very deaf who does not hear it cry for

Help has been given, royally and courteously, and none of it in vain. But the
liquor traffic, the tare-sower-chartered
by law, is wiser and busier than church
or school,—the mortal enemy of every
thing that lives, from protoplasm to
philosophy.

October, iejog.

Let us face the facts. There are more
drink shops, licensed anel illicit, than
churches. The Hawaiian Board is no
match for the brewery. The police powt- is incapable of enforcing even the
restrictive features of the license law.
The open saloon should be wipeel out.
The legitimate use and sale of alcoholic
diinks should be carefully guarded.
brewery should be put out of business,
ar worthless and dangerous.
These are the subjects, it is true, of
the local police power. But the liquor
power is greater than the present local
police power. And this is no unhearel-of
crndition. Tt is matched by the corporation problem. Corporations arc created
by states and are subject to their will.
Put corporations do business in the othe • states, and it has been found that
nothing short of federal power is able
to keep them in control.
Tbe suppression of the drink traffic
in the islands is work which only the fc'
eral government can elo. Tt will be done
if tbe readers of The Friend desire it
earnestly enough. The following is a
passage from a letter T have just received from one of the nation's strong men
in Washington: 'T am much interested
in what you are doing in Hawaii. Tt
looks to me as if you were getting things
hi line for prohibition at the hands of
Congress. 1 believe you are on the right
track and that you will win if your support in the islands is strong."
Aye. but will it he strong enough?
The Johnson bill, which is included in
this article, is a moderate measure. It
leaves private hospitality untrammeled
Tt provides the means of getting necessary liquors; but it outlaws dram-making
and dram-selling.
The federal government is able to enforce its laws, far more effectively than
can be done by local officers, with local
laws. Tts officers arc detached from local considerations, and have no business
but to make good in their positions. The
local constabulary arc hindered and
weakened in many ways.
T give herewith a brief list of men in
Congress who would presumably be favorable to the Johnson bill:

(Echo) —recently published a leading

article on the subject, "Reasons Tor the
Necessity of Evangelists in Every Plantation."
Without giving his arguments in detail, we mention here the seven reasons
he advanced in his outspoken advocacy
of Christian work, which are the more
remarkable inasmuch as he himself is
not a Christian.
(t"0. Not all Japanese here are
Buddhists. They are free to choose the
best religion, and therefore they shoubl
have the importunity to learn of and to
embrace Christianity.
(2). Unlike Buddhism, Christianity
is positive, not negative in its teachittg
and practice. Tt exerts itself for the correction of hael customs and evil practices, and works for the social betterment of the people; for example. Buddhism is not ashamed of having women
of ill repute even in connection with its
temples, but Christianity rebukes :mpuritv wherever it may exist. This is one
of the great reasons why evangelists
should be stationed in every plantation.
(3). Christ'an evangelists »*» m*«i
with world-wide conceptions, and not
bmited by merely Japanese considerations. This is a characteristic that qualifies them to be leaders.

(4). There is a need of interpreters
in whom both the manager and the people can have confidence. The evangelists
generally have this confidence and have
sufficient knowledge of English to be
of great service in this respect.
(5). The evangelist stands in the respect of the Manager, and being a Christion, be is more capable of understanding the Manager's point of view. Tlvs
enables him to mediate more intelligently.
(6). He visits the people and shows
true sympathy for them in their trials.
He is needed among us for his sympathetic manner.
(7). He opens night schools and
classes of all kinds to teach the people.
He is necessary to us as an educator.
We congratulate Kona on having, as
the editor of it's chief medium of communication, a man like Dr. Hayashi.
who has the courage of his convictions,
speaking out what he believes to be for
the welfare of the people even though
his views must be unacceptable to a large
part of his Buddhist constituency; and
incidentally it looks to us like a high
compliment to our evangelist, Mr. Okamura, that such an article should appear
in the field in which he has been working.

You can

"Eat your cake and have it"
in a very real sense.
You can give away your property and have it,—really enjoy it, as long as you live. You couldn't have
it longer than that anyway.
This is the idea of "Thk Conditional Gift Plan"s Your money,—property, or whatever can be converted into money,—pays you a gooel, steady income during your life and goes on working for you and
for humanity after you are goiu\
So you ''make friends (by) the mammon of unrighteousness,"
So also, you "lay up for yourself treasures, etc'
This is no can't. Tt is Christian stewardship and sound business sense combined.
The Finance Committee makes you an offer of one whole per cent better than before. You can hardly
invest much better elsewhere anel
the amount you invest with the Hawaiian Board in your life time will not be
wrangled for after you are gone.

"We have spent a most enjoyable anel

tne Hampton which General Armstrong
founded, but the Hampton in which the
spirit of General Armstrong still lives."
The "Friend" wishes it might be able
to reproduce here the extremely interesting article which recently appeared
in the "Hilo Tribune relative to the
great improvements in the school, but
as our limits elo not permit of this, we
must content ourselves with a few words:
"One of the important features of the
industrial work will be the use of a great
deal of ne wequipment which Mr. anel
Mrs. Lyman brought back with them
from the mainland.
"Mr. Chaves of the Ontario Agricultural College experimental station, will
have charge of the agricultural and industrial branch of the work. It is the
aim of the school to give its pupils such
training in the methods of modern dairyindustry as will enable them to contribute toward the elevation of the local
elairy industry to modern lines. For the
printing shop of the school a lot of newtype has been secured, as well as a paper cutter of modern make. This department will be in charge of Miss
Blanche Miller. As a matter of fact,
the school is now excellently equipped
and so thoroughly prepared to give its
pupils a valuable agricultural and industrial course, in addition to the ordinar)
school branches, that it is proposed to
give up the primary branch of the school.
The argument in favor of this plan is
that the primary pupils might get their
instruction in the public schools, and the
accommodations which are occupied by
the primary pupils might then be used
by older students altogether."

We teach such subjects as BOOKKEEPING, SHORTHAND. T/PI-WRITING, ENGLISH, COMMERCIAL LAW, ARITHMETIC. ALGEBRA, SALESMANSHIP, and a special

of this past year."

The local Association will have from
150 to 160 different students in its night
school this year. An educational director
has been employed, to give most of his
time to educational work. He should
succeed in developing a very large educational ?cork. The projected building

A few months more this school, with

representatives from other schools affi-

liated with the "Mid-Pacific Institute."
namely "The Japanese Boarding School"
and "The Korean School" of the M. E.
Mission, will be busily at work in the
splendid school home now nearing complction in beautiful Manoa Valley. Judging by the statement kindly lent us by
President Merrill we have reason to believe that this year will prove one of the
most successful in its history:
"Mills Institute opened its eighteenth
year on September 13th. The enrollment in the Boarding and Day Departments is 163 of whom nine are Japanese
and ten Koreans. The dormitories are
uncomfortably crowded and a number
of applicants have been placed on the
waiting list. Efforts are now being made
to secure rooms in the neighborhood of
the school for dormitory purposes. Four
new students have just arrived from
China and entered upon a four years'
course in the school.
"There are two new teachers on the
faculty this year: Mr. J. Glen Hammond, of Colorado College, and Mr.
Ralph J. Richardson, of Dartmouth
College. The other teachers are, in the
English and Commercial departments.
Mr. R. Wallen and Miss Flora Cannon,
and, in the Chinese department. Mr
Tong Kwan Van and Mr. Pak Chan.
"The High School department is now
well started with a Freshman class of
ten.
"The students this year are an exceptionally fine appearing lot of young men
and boys. The school should have a
successful year."

An important feature of Association
work in future will be the co-ordinating
of its work with that of the various missions about town, giving these missions
the benefit of the supervision of a man
specially trained in the promotion of this
type of educational work.

Owing to the lack of fences around the
majority of the houses, the horses and
cattle that happen along will eat off and
trample the young trees, and all the children of the camp will regard the flowers as raised for the special delectation
of their mischievous little fingers; in
se&gt;me places, water must be carried quite
a distance; and after all, what inspiration is there for a tired laborer at the
close of a strenuous day, to work on at
home improvement? For the most part
he is unmarried; what interest can home
have for him? His room is merely a
roof to sleep under, and to be changed
when he gets tired, perchance, for one
on some other plantation. Even if he
is married, his wife goes out with him
te work in the field, so the situation is
not much changed. He is in the business for money, nothing else.

But here and there some get attach

CHARLES MONTAGUE COOKE.
(Continued from page 8).
Early in life he united with Fort
Street Church and has ever since remained a consistent and untiring church
member and Christian. Even here his
rare business qualifications were most
important, for business energy and tact
are as much needed in the church as in
sugar growing or banking, and when
the difficult task of uniting the Bethel
Union and Fort Street Churches arose,
he was one whose resourcefulness was
most called upon. He became a charter
member of the Central Union Church
and has ever since been a member of its
Board of Trustees and many years its
chairman. For several years he was
Superintendent of the Sunday School
and ever and always foremost in promoting the true interests of the church.
This notice would be incomplete anel
the most notable feature of his life
would be omitted, were his benevolence.?
and public gifts to go unmentioned.
Always generous, yet that generosity
arose to munificence during the later
years of his life. He had acquired,
through his efforts and fine abilities, a
considerable fortune. But he never forgot that with wealth came increased responsibility to others, anel most nobly
has he responded. The public does not
know of the numberless gifts from his
hands and his wife's, but very many of
the sick and unfortunate are full of lasting gratitude for the timely aid which
has come unostentatiously from them.

the Bank of Hawaii a half of his salary
has been given to the same fund in the

charities, have received princely gifts
from them, not once, not twice, but year
after year. To them we owe the Aquarium at Waikiki. But as if this wen

TOURF AUI.
M
In order te&gt; keep in touch with actual
conditions in our Sunday schools and
churches, it is necessary to make frequent tours of the various islands. It
was my good fortune to have made the
circuit of East Maui in the early part
of September with Rev. R. B. Dodge,
the agent of the Hawaiian Board, and
Rev. E. B. Turner of Paia. A few days
spent in Wailuku made a delightful prelude to the tour. On Saturday, Sept.
4th, I set out on the trip, my destination that evening being Kanaio. An
interesting break in the afternoon's ride
was the witnessing of the launching of
a large Japanese fishing boat at Kihei.

The whole population was on the bead
to see the proudly-bedecked craft glide.
Kanaio was reached by star-light and
a cordial welcome awaited me at the
home of Judge Guy S. Goodness.
The next morning a Communion service was held in the church anel tho
the attendance was not large the meeting was most helpful. Later in the morning; I held a Communion service at Ulupalakua and baptized six persons. Judge
Goodness interpreted my sermon there
and at Makena in the afternoon for another Communion service where I baptized four more persons. Quite a large
number were at the latter service, having awaited our arrival since the closing of the Sunday school hour in the
morning. After this Makena meeting 1
rode through the Kula district to the
home of Mr. J. W. Fleming of Makawao and it was good to receive a warm
welcome from these friends after a few
hours of riding in the dark and rainynight along strange roads.
Monday morning Messrs. Dodge, Turner ar| d I met at Makawao and our
joint tour was now in full swing. It
was delightful to see quite a little of the
Kula region with its picturesque homes

luncheon very kindly and sent a guide
with us to see that we reached the Olimla
trail safely. Of the ascent of that grand
old mounain—Haleakala —l shall say
but little. Much has been written of the
glorious sunsets and wonderful sunrises
to be seen from the summit and because
•;- much has been written I shall add
nothing more, except to say that everyone in a position to take the Haleakala
trip should certainly do so. Tt is well
worth the trouble and trivial inconveniences. Our night in the Craigalea
house and morning along the rim of the
crater and crossing through to the Kaupo gap were passed without special
incident, and the Katipo church was
reached shortly after the hour appointed for our service there. The people
refreshed us with sweet oranges and
seemed pleased to see the travel-stained
riders. We could not make a long stay
with them but it was long enough to talk
over certain matters.

Rev. James 11. Alexander, 361 Warwich Aye., Oakland, California, writes:
"The Reports of the Society give just
what we want to know about the 'Cousins and Hawaiian matters. 1 prize very
much the lists of the members and of
thtir places of residence. It is valuable as a Directory for reference.
1 realize every year how happy a
thing it is that at the beginmg ot the
Micronesian Mission the children of the
Hawaiian missionaries organized to support one of their number, Rev. Halsey
Gulick going to Micronesia. The result has been the great work performeel
by the Mission Children in Hawaii —a
development of what evidently is to be
the final missionary work in each group
of the Pacific Islands, the work of transforming new non-Christian populations
crming into the islands.
So Hawaii seems to have a mission
like that of the Lnited States. The latter country began with the best population of Europe, the Puritans, the Covenrnters and the Hugenots that it might
become subseejuently a school for enlightening and evangelizing the worst
populations of Europe coming to America, as well as a radiat'ng center for inflicnccs on the rest of the world.
Hawaii received of the best people of
the world, for such were our missionary
fathers, and now, non-Christian populations coming into Hawaii are to be enlightened and evangelized. There is no

Miss Tulia Edwards Porter, of Hastings. Minnesota, is the latest accession
to our membership. She has a good

right to be on the inside, and we welcr;me her to it as another representative
of the Richards family.
Her first name comes from her grandmother, the wife of Prof. Fisk P. Brewer, known to some of us -n the years
prior to 1840 as our friend and schoolmate. Tulia Maria R'chards. But her
second name points out the more remarkable fact that she is a lineal descendant
fiom Tonathan Edwards, and not only
from his first child but through an unbroken line of eldest children. The Sec-

NEWBOOKS.

MENTAL MEDICINE.—By Oliver

Huekel, S. T. D. This book contains a
series of lectures elelivered by a noted
pastor before the Johns Hopkins Meelical School on a subject which now occupies so large a place in Christian
thought. The title might be improved,
bin the book is full of sound common
sense, readable as a novel and a real inspiration to health, emphasizing the possibility and the duty of utilizing more
fully the patient's inner spiritual energies
in the treatment of disease. It is not a
call to blind faith, but a faith grounded in
God's clear purposes. "(iod wills health
for us. It is not God's will that any one
of us should suffer." Pain is not a punishment, but a friendly monitor. "It is
both foolish and wicked to endure ill
health and disease so long as there is
any hope or means of cure." "People
must be taught not to give up to sickness but to resist it just as they resist
sin." Among the chapter headings are
found such suggestive subjects as "The
Spiritual Mastery of the Body," "The
Therapeutic Value of Faith and Prayer,"
