PAUL SUPER
At the invitation of the directors of the
Honolulu Y. M. C. A.. Mr. John F.
Mopre came all the way from New York
City to spend twelve days with the association men of Honolulu, studying local
conditions with a view to mapping out
a policy for the next few years. The trip
of 11000 miles was well worth while, Mr.
Moore's wide experience as an association secretary during the past twenty
years giving him an insight into the needs
of the men of a city and the methods that
In addition to a nummeet these needs.
ber of conferences with individuals and
committees, Mr. Moore spoke 22 times
in 11 days. The work of the visit can
best be reported under the following
heads:
1. Shops.—At the Honolulu Iron
Works, 102 men gathered one noon hour
to hear an address on men's fundamental
needs. This visit and address gave an
opportunity to study local shop men. A
similar group of 28 men attended the
meeting at Catton Neil] & Cos shops.
2. Soldiers—This phase of the local
situation interested Mr. Moore exceedingly. He organized the association work
at Camp Alger during the SpanishAmerican war, so was on familiar ground
in a military camp. Mr. McCandless
took Mr. Moore and some of the officers
of the Y. M. C. A. to Schofield Barracks
at Leilehua, where they were shown over
the post by Colonel Schueyler. There are
576 men at this post with no religious influences whatever. The chaplains who
have been there have had about as much
religious influence as a saloon. The colonel favors the placing of a Y. M. C. A.
secretary here, and Mr. Moore will try
to get the International Committee to
place a man at this needy post. A meeting of 110 men gathered to hear Mr.
Moore at Fort Ruger, and a conference
was held with Captain Timberlake. Here
both officers and men are very friendly to
the Association, and it is a fine post, of
about 200 men. Fort Shafter was visited, and last, Camp Very, where 300
marines are stationed. Of these about
200 turned out to hear an evangelistic
address, and voted to have a regular
meeting every two weeks. Bi-weekly
meetings have been held at Fort Ruger
for some time. The Association will add
the marine barracks to its extension
work.
3. Railroad —No phase of Mr.

ferences were held with Messrs. Dillingham, Denison and Smith, and other
heads of departments. All are anxious
to have a special Railroad Y. M. C. A.
with a secretary giving all his time to
the railroad men, and a building for the
employes. Over 75,000 railroad men belong to over 240 such associations, and it
is likely that the O. R. and L. men will
soon be added to the list. The officials
have wanted to do welfare work for the
men for some time, and have decided that
the Y. M. C. A. is the proper method.
4. Association.—At the Y. M. C. A.
itself a number of meetings were held,
the chief ones being the members' meeting, attended by 170 members, a directors' meeting, conferences with the mem-

bership, physical and building committees, a talk to the employed boys of the
gymnasium, and a talk to the students of
the educational department one night after classes had been dismissed. A final
conference with directors, trustees and
committee chairmen was called to hear
recommendations based on the study of
the field.
5. Church—Three addresses were
made in Central Union Church. Two on
the only Sunday of the visit, and a stereopticon talk on the "Worldwide Association Movement" one Wednesday night.
Mr. Moore is an excellent speaker and
made a fine impression at all these meetings.
5. Pearl Harbor.—Some time in the
near future this place will be a great center, where hundreds of men will be located, both as civilians and as soldiers and
sailors. The visit would have been incomplete without a study of this place, so
the plans were studied with Engineer
Purrell, and the ground visited with
President Denison of the dredging company, these two conferences combined
giving Mr. Moore a good idea of what
would be needed at Pearl Harbor.
7. Student—The student situation was
given some attention. The older male
students of Kamehameha School, about
160 in number, were addressed one morning, the whole student body of Oahu College the next morning, and later in the
visit the whole student body of McKinley
High School. The students of Mills Institute were also visited and addressed in
a meeting. This gave Mr. Moore a fine
opportunity to see the student phase of
Honolulu iife, and form some opinion as
to what Y. If. C. A. work could be carried on among the male students. Mr.
Home received favorably the idea of a
Y. M. C. A. for the Kamehameha boys.
There was an association there some
years ago, but not since Mr. Home has
been principal. If practicable, the Y. M.
C. A. will again be organized. Mr. Home
was president of the student association
at Harvard, and is therefore familiar
with student Y. M. C. A. work. An increasing number of high school and Punahou Doys are coming to our building,
forming what we call our student department. The new building will solve
many of the problems of these boys.
Frequent conferences were held with

Recommendations. —An extensive report was made to the officers embodying
the suggestions that grew out of the
study of the field. These will be worked
up into a definite policy, and acted on at
the may meeting of the board of directors. The suggestions met with general
approval, Mr. Trent remarking that
there was not one that should not be carried out. Among the chief items are the
following:
a. The organization of a Railroad Y.
M. C. A. among the men of the O. R. &
L. Co. and the employment of a secretary
to give all his time to this branch. This
will involve the erection of a club building on the railroad land near the station.
b. The immediate securing of an army
secretary for Schofield Barracks, to be
financed by the International Committee
of the Y. M. C. A.
c. The securing of an army and navy
secretary for the enlisted men within
Honolulu, this man's budget to be provided jointly by the local association and
the International Committee.
d. The securing of a man to give all
his time to work among the men in the
various industries, enlarging the scope of
the present work carried on at the Hono
lulu Iron Works, the Catton Neill shops,
and the Rapid Transit car barns.

board reorganizes after the spring election of officers, they will doubtless frame
these suggestions into a definite policy,
and set about carrying out the recommendations. This will mean big advance in work for men in Honolulu.
Within the building itself Mr. Moore
thinks the Association is doing about as
big a work as the equipment allows, except along the line of Bible classes. Seven religious meetings a week are held by
the Y. M. C. A., but not enough Bible
work is being done. This the committees will try to remedy.
It is the hardest suggestion of all to carry out, as those
of us who have lived here a while well
know. But we will develop Bible classes
as rapidly as possible.

The historic Hawaiian Church building at Lihue, which has recently been

commodious and comfortable place of
worship for the large congregation
which gather there every Sunday.
In addition to the Church building itself, a large lanai has been erected which
is available for Sunday School purposes
and for use as a dining hall in times of
convention. A kitchen with range, etc.
adds to the completeness of the plant.
These improvements are mainly due to
the interest and generosity of the Rice

At Kapaa the commodious and comfortable new Sunday School hall has

Another very intelligent and useful
Hawaiian, much thought of in our community is Mr. J. M. Kaneakua, county

councils of the C. E. and Sunday School

And out they poured, not armed men,
But, marching side by side,

Whose bright eyes met their gaze

Unversed in war's dread ways.

At sight so strange and fair;
They took the children in their arms,
They stroked their flaxen hair.
They kissed their cheeks and sweet red

The civic slander and the spite;

Ring in the common love of good.

13. Essay, "Heroism Without War."
In defense of war, it is said it developes, as nothing else can do, the virtues
of heroism and self-sacrifice.
But cannot our boasted civilization furnish a more manly test of heroism than
that of fighting to destroy men and property? Are there not battles in which
we can prove our valor by fighting to
save life rather than to destroy it.
To overcome the enemies of Society,
to fight for the suppression of vice, intemperance, dishonesty and injustice,
to save the children of the poor from
lives of hard labor in factories and to
rescue all men from oppression—these
are battles worthy of the statesmanship
and heroism of a Gladstone or a Roosevelt.
Prof. William James of Harvard University suggests the hardihood and discipline which might be developed in our
youth if we were drafted into a war
against Nature.
"To coal and iron mines, to freight
trains, to fishing fleets in December, to
dish washing and window washing, to
road building and tunnel making, to
foundries and stoke holes and to the
frames of skyscrapers, would our gilded
youth be drafted off, according to their
choice, to get the childishness knocked
out of them and to come back into society with healthier sympathies and soberer ideas. They would have paid their
blood tax, done their own part in the
immemorial human warfare against
nature. They should tread the earth
more proudly, the women would value
them more highly, they would be better
fathers and teachers of the following
generation.
Such a conscription
would
preserve the manly virtues which the
military party is so afraid of seeing disand not degrade
appear in peace
the whole remainder of one's life."

14. Reading and Recitation, "The Christ of the Andes."
More significant than all else
The peace monument on the
Andean boundary between Chile
and Argentine, was erected in
March 1904 to commemorate,
the peace between these nations
after years of quarreling and
dispute over the boundary line.
Not only was war averted, but
a treaty made, referring the dispute to the arbitration of King
Edward. The matter was settled satisfactorily to both nations and they later decided to
submit all disputes for five years
to arbitration.
They also agreed to reduce
their armies and their navies.
is the change in the attitude of
the Chileans and Argentines toward each other. All the bitterness and distrust have passed
away and good feeling and confidence have taken their place.
It was therefore most fitting
to erect this huge monument on
the boundary line and to dedicate it to the whole world as a
practical lesson of peace and
goodwill. The figure of Christ
in bronze is twenty-six feet
high and holds in one hand a
cross and the other is in the
attitude of blessing.
"Then kinder, kinglier thought prevailed,
Where threat of sword and gun had failed;
And love-illumined reason wrought
The adjustment long so vainly sought.
"Shall we hush our hearts as we see them go—
God pity!—to strive with a brother foe?
And long as we have waited, have suffered and prayed
For a joy still denied us, a hope still delayed.
"For how can a triflle of earth and air
With the worth of human lives compare?
And what can it matter if thine or mine
Be the narrow side of the Boundary Line?
"Enough; let the sun in highest heaven
Pencil the line for which you have striven;
Let a princely people on either side
In friendship and fair accord abide;
"And why should greed and grim distrust
Despoil us of our faith and trust?
Enough, enough, let us pledge our word
To settle by judgment, not by sword.
"Be the strife of the past to the wild winds swept;
The faith of the future unswervingly kept;
And let 'The Christ of the Andes' rest
In tokens of peace on the mountain's crest."
"Let us heed the counsel
And raise the standards
And the here or there
Let God and the British
our good priests bring,
of Christ our King,
of the Boundary Line
king define."
Then the mother-heart of the nation stirred,
As the fair Dc Costa's plea was heard:
"Fathers and brothers! warriors, men!
Shall we give our bravest to death and pain?
Grandly the people made reply;
The pledge was taken, the arms laid by,
And glad thanksgiving and festal song
Witnessed the joy of the gathered throng.

■
John W. Gilmore, College
of Hawaii.
On February 2, 1906, Tuan Fang,
High Commissioner of the delegation recently sent to the United States to study
economic conditions set forth the attitude
of China to the work of foreign missions
in these words:
"We take pleasure this evening in
bearing testimony to the part taken by
American missionaries in promoting the
progress of the Chinese people. They
have borne the light of Western civilization into every nook and corner of the
empire. They have rendered inestimable
service to China by the laborious task of
translating into the Chinese language religious an 1 scientific work of the west.
They help us to bring happiness and
comfort to the poor and suffering by the
establishment of hospitals and schools.
The awakening of China, which now
seems to be at hand, may be traced in no
small measure to the hand of the missionary. For this service you will find China
not ungrateful."
if
Missions and Social Progress.
These words have a very large and
permanent significance. A very common
conception of the good influence of missionary work in China is that it is measured largely by the number of churches
built and the number of converts enrolled.
In reality, however, while this is
a most commendable part of the missionary enterprise, yet it is not by any means
the measure of the influence that Christian missions are exerting in China today. Some fifteen years ago a definite
movement was inaugurated against the
pernicious custom of foot-binding. While
the propaganda was looked somewhat
askance at in the beginning, now it has
the sanction of the throne to this effect,
that no Chinese official who permits anyfemale member of his family to practice
foot binding upon young girls shall be
eligible to further apointment or promotion. This edict is a direct outcome of
the educational efforts of the missions at
first and afterwards of influential Chinese, including some viceroys. The great
advantage to the Chinese people when
foot binding shall have been abolished
can hardly be estimated, for it has been
perhaps the most discouraging element in
the amelioration of the conditions of women in China. No nation can rise to the
highest without the ennobling influence

girls is essential to the renovation of the
empire.
The Destiny of An Educated China.
Education has an especially fertile
field among the Chinese because of their
high reverence for learning. There are
perhaps no more notable examples of
human sacrifice for knowledge than are
to be found in China. The privileges of
education are open to all classes and
frequent arc the instances where poverty-stricken individuals have struggled
with all their might and energy for a little learning. This love for learning in
itself will be sufficient in time to rejuvenate the nation, and put into its offices
of influence men and women who may
control the destinies of the nation in a
more rational manner. China is beginning to recognize now as never before
the necesity of living and acting in a relationship with other nations, and it is
be hoped that this sisterhood of interests
will be mutual. When after several generations, the accomplishments of China
shall be measured in their relations with
those of other nations, it will be found
that the words of Tuan Fang quoted
above will still be true and that Christian principles of education shall be the
cornerstone of the nation's spiritual and
material prosperity.

HENRY P.
The month of March has been an interesting time for the Sunday Schools
and C. E. Societies of Hawaii and Maui.
These islands have just held their semiannual conventions, and representatives
of the schools and societies have met together to talk over what has been done
for the Kingdom of heaven along the
lines of the young people's work and to
plan for larger things to be done for
ilim in His name.
THE NAPOOPOO MEETING.
The Hawaii Sunday School Association and C. E. Societies met in connection with the gathering of the ministers
and church delegates, in the old church
at Napoopoo, South Kona, from Saturday, March 12th to Wednesday, March
18th. Before the meeting the superintendent had the opportunity of making
several addresses on his way from Hilo
to Kona, speaking to the boys of the Hilo
Boarding School, also to the congregation of the Olaa church, the Pahala Sunday school and the congregation of the
Waiohinu church. It was pleasant to nolice signs of progress in the various
schools visited and to know that much
solid work is being done by faithful
teachers in a quiet way.
The Sunday school part of the convention in Kona was ushered in by an unusually successful "Hoike" on Sunday
morning. Judging by the excellent rendition of the hymns, anthems and the
recitation of Bible verses in an exceptionally distinct manner the schools of North
and South Kona must have done some
hard work and a great deal of intere
have been taken in the schools in the way
of careful preparation for the special occasion. The attendance was large, for
not only were there representatives from
most of the Kona schools, but. quite a
number of visitors. It would not be fair
for me to single out any particular school
for a wor:l of praise. They all did well
iau\ showed what careful training can do.
At the conclusion of the exhibition I was
asked to say a few words to the audience and responded briefly with a message of encouragement to the teachers
and an appeal to put the same amount of
energy in the conduct of the school on
Sundays as was shown in the "Hoike."
The usual luau followed the service and
the crowd slowly drifted away to their
homes, all except the delegates and ministers and a few others who stayed to the
meetings the next week.
JUDD
The C. E. part in the convention was
along the usual lines—the sunrise devotional meetings, the business sessions,
etc. The reports seemed to indicate progress in the societies, there being almost
Oou members on the Big Island, 352 of
whom are members of the churches. The
C. E. is often the gateway to church
niemebership and has not only maintained interest among the church members,
but has been effective as a means of attracting persons into the church.
As usual the Sunday School Association transacted considerable routine business. The total enrollment of the
schools is now about 1.800, more than
three times as numerous as the C. E.
The superintendent brought up for discussion four topics, viz.. the encouragement of a worshipful spirit in the school
sessions, the benefit to be derived from
variety in the programs of the opening
exercises, ways to promote teachertraining and the conversion of the Sunday school pupils as a means of feeding
the Church. These subjects are live
ones in the Hawaiian schools and their
presentation was listened to with good
attention.
It was the fortune of the superintendent and his wife to be the guests of Dr.
and Mrs. A. S. Baker during the days
of the meetings and it was a pleasure to
see what they are doing for the people
of Kona in their quiet and faithful way.
Mrs. Ruth Baker, too, is doing fine work
as superintendent of the Central Kona
Church Sunday school and in many other ways. Let us not forget what these
and other workers are doing for the
kingdom by introducing the children to
the Savior and by building up their
Christia nch aracters through the steady
work of the Sunday schools.
THE WAIHEE MEETINGS.
After a rough passage across the Alenuihaha Channel on Mrach 17th, the delegation of ministers from Honolulu,
Revs. Oleson, Nakuina and Judd reached Maui and the next day began attendance at the meetings of the churches.
Sunday schools and C. E. meetings of
Maui, Molokai and Lanai in the Waihee church. These meetings began on
the 17th and continued until the 23rd.
The Sunday school features were of
the usual order, including a good
"Hoike" on Sunday morning. At this
service Dr. R. J. Burdette and wife were
present and the doctor gave a splendid
�16
talk that was much appreciated. Rev. O.
H. Gulick also gave a talk that was
greatly enjoyed. It will not be out of
place to mention the excellent work of
the Waihee school at the "Hoike." The
splendid singing and letter-perfect recitation of the subjects of the lessons, golden texts and leading thoughts was a noteworthy feature of the occasion and showed that much faithful effort had been
made by Hon. Robert J. K. Nawahine,
son of the venerable pastor of the Waihee church and himself a hard worker
for the church.
The C. E., as is customary, took
charge of the sunrise meetings and they
were helpful and devotional throughout.
At Waihee as well as at Napoopoo
Mr. Xakuina conducted a question box
for the C. E. workers and answered In
an able manner the various questions put
to him.
He also had charge of a question box on Prohibition that aroused
great interest.
Right here it will be fitting to mention the able presentation, by Rev. E. B.
Turner of the Makawao Union church,
of an introduction to the Gospel of Matthew. This was particularly timely because of the fact that the Sunday school
lessons for this year are taken from the
Gospel of Matthew.
Mr. Turner held
the close attention of his audience. Work
of this nature in connection with the
Island Association meetings is most valuable because of its being heard by a
representative body of church workers
from all parts of the isalnds and because
there is such a need for instruction in the
general subject of Biblical introduction.
Besides Mr. Turner's theme there was
the reading of the sermon outlines by
two of the Maui ministers, followed by
criticisms of these sermons. The monthly meetings for ministers and workers of
Central Maui, under the supervision of
Rev. R. B. Dodge, are bearing fruit, and
the benefits of such steady instruction in
sermon outlines and Biblical subjects are
being seen in improved preaching and
higher standards of work among the pastors of Maui.
All that the monthly
school on Maui can accomplish will tend
to improve the Sunday schools of that
island.

THE NEW IDEALS IN HEALING.
By Ray S. Baker.
Published by F. A. Stokes Co., New
York.
Review, by Rev. John T. Gulick, Ph. D.
A small book of 105 pages, but of unusual interest. The subject is presented in two parts. First: "The New Healing Mission of the Church;" being chief-1) on account of the Emanuel movement in Boston, conducted by Rev. Dr.
Worcester, and Rev. Dr. McComb, aided by medical experts- Second: "The
New Healing Mission of the Medical
Profession;" being an account of the
Social Service Department, at the Massachusetts General Hospital, organized
by Dr. Cabot.
The jxisition maintained by the author
will be best presented by a few brief
quotations, which I will now give:
" The clergyman is discovering that
man has a body, and the doctor that he
has a soul. Both are taking a larger
view of humanity; and both are seeking
earnestly to serve humanity more unselfishly." p. viii.
Dr. Worcester after graduating from
Columbia University and from an Episcopal Seminary, took a course under
Wundt & Fecher in Germany. Returning to America he became chaplain
and professor of philosophy at Lehigh
University, and afterwards rector of
St. Stephen's Church in Philadelphia,
coming to Boston in 1904. p. 15-i6.
Dr. McComb was first a Presbyterian
pastor; but after becoming an Episcopalian joined Dr. Worcester in Boston,
p. 16.
"In the fall of 1906 the Emanuel
Movement began. *
* Dr. Worcester
said 'The time has come when the
church must enter more deeply into the
personal lives of the people, and make a
freer use of the means modern science
and the gospel of Christ place at her
disposal, if she is to continue even to hold
her own.' Acting upon this thought, it
was most natural that Emanuel Church
should turn to the healing of the physically and mentally sick. It was one
of the commands of Christ that his disciples should heal the sick.* *
Dr.
Worcester saw the need of the great
faith which cures the Catholic who kissed
the stone toe of the Saint; but he saw
also the need of the best reason that science could give for such a cure. p. 17.
A mass of scientific knowledge has been
attained by the medical profession; much
is known of disease and the cure of disease. Why should all this knowledge
be disregarded or discarded. 'Most religious workers in this field,' says Dr.
Worcester, 'have made the mistake of
*
*
supposing that God
can cure in only one
way, and that the employment of physical means indicates a lack of faith.
This is absurd. God cures by many
means. J It uses the sunlight, healing
and nourishing substances, water and
air.'
p. 18, 19.
"
Fundamental Beliefs.
"Medical science and psychology have
shown that a very large proportion of all
the diseases from which men suffer—
nearly half in fact—are diseases in which
the mind, the personality or the moral na
ture is the controlling factor. Dr. Worcester and Dr. McComb have attempted
to establish no new doctrine. They believe profoundly in the power of the
mind over the body; that the mind when
inspired or transformed, can cure many
of the diseases of the mind and the moral
nature. It can also help greatly in alleviating pain and producing the state of
confidence and hope which is favorable to the cure of all other diseases. But
organic ailments generally, they believe,
must be left to physical treatment, to
medicine, surgery, hygiene, isolation and
and skilled nursing.
For eyestrain a
pair of glasses is far more effective than
any mental treatment." pp. 19, 22.
,"Ail sorts of cases have been treated by
Dr. Worcester and Dr. McComb and
their followers. The lives of many men
and women have been utterly transformed ; from weak, hopeless, complaining,
suffering beings, they have changed to
hopeful, happy, courageous beings. In
April, 1907, for example, there entered
the clinic a middle-aged man suffering
from pseudo-angina pectoris, severe
pains all over his body, and in a very
miserable state of mind. He had been
unable to do any work for almost threeyears ; had gone the usual round of doctors and hospitals, and had fallen into
despair of getting better. I le was a man
of deep religious feeling. First of all
his despair was dissipated by frequent reassurance that there was nothing incurable about his disorder. Then from time
to time during a period of five months
suggestion was applied and his religious
instincts appealed to, until at the end of
that period, he recovered his health and
nervous oalance. He has remained well,
and has gone back to work. There have
been many strange cases of men suffering from fears, worries and phobias
which have paralysed their lives. From
all sorts of causes they had come to a
nervous breakdown, which neither medical treatment nor self-control could cure.
They have had their lives, in many vases,
literally reconstructed." pp. 34-5.
Criticisms of the Movement.
"The questions are frequently asked:
'Where does religion come in?

�THE FRIEND
April. 1910
Why should the church enter upon the
matter at all?"
"There are two groups of reasons why
the church should take Up the work of
healing. The first is a human or social
reason. To be really cured a man must
be dealt with not merely as a material
but as a human being
body,
having a soul, a spirit. Man is a religious animal, and any work for his upbuilding that neglects that element neglects the most important factor in ins
life. Not every doctor is fitted to build
up the moral and spiritual nature of
men; nor have most doctors time for
such work ; whereas the minister is more
or less at the service of the public.
"The sick man coming for treatment
to the church, (say the supporters of the
movement), receives not mere scientific
advice and direction, but what to many
sufferers, ; s far more important; human
.sympathy, disinterested advice. To many
patients, the fact that they are brought
out of lonely lives to friendly surroundings, the quieting and hope-inspiring
meetings of the church, where everyone
is trying to look on the bright side of
life, is a powerful stimulant towards
health. * * * The church inspires
confidence that its ministers have no ulterior or selfish purpose; and many, a
discourage d man finds in that feeling the
first gleams of new hope. Besides this,
the church gives men a new interest in
life, a new work to do—work for some
* * *
p. 42-44.
"In the final analysis it makes little
real difference to you or to me what
profession docs the new work —whether
doctor or minister or a combination of
the two—so long as it is done. The
final test is service, and to that end professions and institutions must shape
themselves. Men aft?r all, whether ill
or well, will follow those leaders who
can give them hope, courage, faith,
health, virtue, enable them to meet the
inevitable difficulties and trials of this
life with a happier face and a serener
soul. In any event, the fine new work
will go on, whether the church in its
for that
present form leads it or
way lies truth." p. 53-4.
Concerning the Social Service Department of the Massachusetts' General
Hospital, we have room for only a few
words. Dr. Cabot had observed, that, in
many cases that came to the Hospital,
the chief cause of disease was the lack
of means, in the home of the patient, for
meeting the ordinary necessities of life.
After careful investigation of these conditions by the Social Service Department, different methods of remedy arc
applied, sometimes the funds of the Hosone besides themselves,
not:
pital lieing drawn on, and sometimes
ether charitable nistitutions being asked

MISSION CHILDREN'S SOCIETY.
By a recent letter from Miss May E.
Loomis, of Ypsilanti. Michigan, we gain
another page in the family history of the
pioneer missionary printer at Honolulu,
Elisha Loomis, and of his descendants.
The simple narrative is more than a
twicetold tale to many of our readers,
but it has the value of authenticity, as
the writer had her grandfather's journal
to draw from; and it falls in with the
quest of our age—delving among the be-
ginnings, to find why and-how things
have grown to be as they are about us.
in a former number (Oct. 1904, p. 6),
were given sketches of the father and
two of the children ; and, without repeating, we will lightly review these, dealing
with all the children first.
Levi Loomis was the oldest child, and
also the first white child born on these
islands, the date being July 16, 1820. If
he has failed of enjoying this distinction,
it is owing to the plain reason that the
family left this field so early that the
name did not get into the "Blue Book"
of the Maternal Association. Levi determined to have a college education, and
worked very hard to get the needed
money, farming and teaching, and helping his mother at the same time. He
graduated with some honor from Geneva
College, in i844; and after that year, he
engaged in farming and nursery business, in Wisconsin.
He was married
once, perhaps twice: but the record goes
no further. He died. March 23, 1892,
at Wolf's Creek, Oregon, 72 years old,
and was attended in his last illness by
his brother, Jeremiah Evarts.
Amanda Loomis was born in Honolulu, Dec. 4, 1821. and died at Hillhurst,
Washington, June 4, 1903. In 1842 she
was graduated from the Ontario Female
Seminary at Geneva, N. V.; and at once
began a life-long teaching service, which
took her into four widely separated states
of the Union, interrupted only by the
care of her paralyzed mother during her
last years, at the home of her brother Albert, in Michigan. Her greatest honor
was her bright and lovely Christian life.
Albert Sewart Loomis was born in
Honolulu, Nov. 9, 1825, and died at Detroit, Mich., March 28, 1904. Like his
sister he obtained his early schooling at
ried Sarah Wood Hill, daughter of Rev.
Oliver Hill (Presbyterian), and was an

ron, Oliver Henry, Charles Albert

we have not yet learned anything further about them.
Jeremian Evarts Loomis was bor 1 at
Rochester, N. V., IX-c. 1, 1829; was never married, ami died at Galice, Oregon,
August 9, 1905.
John Howard Loomis, the youngest
child, has a still shorter record. He was
born at Potter, N. Y.. August 17, 1832
It is not known whether he was evet
married, nor where he is now.
What of the parents of this very scattered family of our cousins? They proved to be of the right stuff for pioneer
work. Take notice that Mr. Loomis was
accepted by the American Board, was
married, and embarked at Boston, before
he was 21 years old. Like the great
English poet, probably he had "little Latin and less Greek," and with less incumbrance of learning he faced the problem
of the "art preservative" in' catching the
fleeting sounds of the spoken Hawaiian,
and embodying them in Roman letters;
and he must have done his full share of
the work which left Hawaaian orthography in its present form. (At a later
period—lß3o-32—at Mackinaw, Michigan, he used the same phonetic method
in creating the Ojibwe spelling book.)
In Honolulu, the printing press was
set up August 7, 1820, "having .suffered
but little damage by transportation, and
it promises to be a good one." (This
press was, in 1839, presented to the Oregon Mission by the First Church of
Honolulu. It did good service there for
many years, and is now in the museum
at Portland.) The output of this press
was—spelling books, lesson leaves, tracts
(3000 in one edition), and a hymn book
of 108 pages and containing 100 hymns,
bearing date on its title page, Oahu,
1827; and probably some portions of the
Testament, though th* volume which we
have samples of was issued a little later,
and will be mentitoned below. Mr. Loomis taught, as well as printed books ; and
Mrs. Loomis also comes in for brief mention as one of those devoted women who
stood to their duty, and let their lives be
worn away by the incessant grind, in the
depressing climate of Kawaiahao as it
used to be. In this case it was the man
who broke down, and was condemned by
the medical director of that time, perhaps Dr. Blatchley, to return home, or
he would die here in a year or 18 months.
�18
He returned, with his family, Jan. 7,
1827; and lived in the home- climate for
nine and a half years,, and labored,
though never with the full ability of a
well man. Two things are probable in
connection with the first six years after
his return horne—that he was under the
direction and pay of the American
Board, and that his family accompanied
him in his migrations. He put forth a
volume of 171 pages, containing the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and John in Hawaiian. Each part had a full title page;
on each the legend appears—llookahi
keia oka pai ana; on the first, the imprint—ROCHESTER. N. Y. PAI IA
MA KA MFIA PAI PALAPALA A
LUMIKI. 1828. On the other two the
imprint is slightly changed, and the date
is 1829; which shows that the work was
done single-handed. Our letter states
that these lxx>ks, and also the earlier
hynmbooki, were bound in red leather
and gilded. We may suppose that such
were gift books, made to lie attractive to
the native- chiefs here.
During the period vaguely described
as 1830-1832, Mr. Loomis was a missionary to the Indians in the extreme north
of Michigan.
We- hear of him, after his return from
Michigan, improving his qualifications
for teaching by attending the Canandaigtta Academy, and then opening a select school in his home town of Rushville, on the east side of Canandaigua
lake. He- continued this until June, 1835,
when he was taken severely ill. He spent
the following winter in Florida; but on
returning in the spring, he was caught
by unpropitious weather, and in late
summer he passed away, being nearly 37
years old.
