Pre-Conference Rallies

The Young People’s Ninth Annual Conference to be held at Camp Harold Erdman, Mokuleia, September 4 to 6 , will be the incentive for three social events to be sponsored by the various YPFs.

On Friday, July 30, a social will be given at the St. Elizabeth’s hall by the combined leagues from the College Epis­copal club, St. Andrew’s Hawaiian Con­gregation, St. Luke’s, and St. Elizabeth’s Missions. Refreshments, games, and dancing will be featured.

Leagues from the Epiphany Mission, St. Andrew’s Congregation, and Trinity Mission will sponsor a picnic on August 13.

A dance will be held at St. M ark’s Mission, Kapahulu, on August 27th under the joint sponsorship of St. Peter’s, St. Mary’s, Good Samaritan and St. M ark’s Missions.

Conference Subjects and SpeakersThe T H R E E I ’s, IN T E R E ST , IN ­

CREASE and IN FL U E N C E will be the

theme for this year’s Young People’s Conference to be held over the Labor Day holidays at Camp Harold Erdman, Mokuleia, September 4 to 6 .

A three-day outing sponsored annually by the District Council of the Episcopal Y PF, this conference is the ninth of the series first beium in 1928, none being held last year due to a postponement.

The main feature of the conference will be the discussions on IN T E R E ST , scheduled for Sunday morning and IN ­CREASE on Sunday evening and IN ­FLU EN C E on Monday morning, fol­lowed with a general summary of the three discussions.

A tentative selection of speakers have been listed to open the discussions. Miss Kathaline Ledgard will speak on IN ­TER E ST , How the Young People can be made more interested in the Church ?; Captain Roberts on IN CREA SE, How can the Young Peonle help to increase the Christian Fellowship in the Diocese ?; and the Rev. E. Rowland T aft on IN ­FLU EN CE, How can the Young People

be of influence in the Church? The leaders of the respective discussions will be Thelma Elderts of the Epiphany Mis­sion, Angelica Reese of St. Mark’s Mis­sion, and Charles MacLean of the Col­lege Episcopal club.

Miss Helen Seu, formerly of St. M ary’s Mission, a recent graduate of the School for Christian Service and Deaconess’ Training School, will lead the general summary.

O f special interest to those connected with Young People’s work is the fact that Miss Kathaline Ledgard from the Leahi Home is acting as Dean of Women. Miss Ledgard, who was instrumental in the building of the program, has had a broad experience in this field, having been an active Young People’s worker in the District of Nevada under Bishop Jenkins.

Recreational ProgramAn attractive recreational program is

being offered, featuring the Social hour or the Ice-breaker on Saturday evening at which there will be musical entertain­ment, dancing and singing. Swimming, baseball, volleyball, hiking and other out­door sports will be held in the afternoon, and a campfire program of songs, stunts and marshmallow roast in the evening will highlight Sunday’s events.

Acting as Chaplain will be the Rev. Charles W. Nelson, vicar of the Epiphany Mission.

The chairmen of the different com­mittees are as follows: Program—H er­bert Chang; Recreation— Sarah Hors- w ell; Publicity—Amy Richardson; Trans­portation—Don Kellerman and Thelma Elderts; Registrars—Richard Emory and Charlotte Wong.

CASH POSITION OF BUILDING FUND

From St. Clement’s (Honolulu) Kalendar

- In round numbers our Building Fund of $36,000.00 includes $26,000.00 in cash and $ 10,000.00 in pledges.

Reserving $3,000.00 for the furnish­ings of the Parish House, now nearly finished, and after having paid the con­tract price and architect’s fees we will have left $4,815.52 in cash.

The pledges are on a three year plan and limited amounts are available from that source this year.

W ith this forty-eight hundred dollars as a start we should plan to augment the fund with sufficient amounts to build or buy a Rectory before the end of this year. This seems reasonable and possible if we work and spread abroad the facts.

W ith the first two units completed then it will be much more definite to present the picture of the new Church during the coming year.

Such an outline has the advantage of clear objectives rather than asking con­tributors to add to a more or less vague Building Fund.

And what a relief it is to pay as we go.

“Faith,” says Sherwood Eddy, “is not trying to believe something regardless of the evidence: faith is daring to do some­thing regardless of the consequences.”

Ckunck CW aptaIn On ПГкеBy the Associate Editor

“The Fleet’s in,” said Hawaii in May when the huge armada of the U. S. Battle Fleet steamed into Pearl Harbor. “And the Church came with the Fleet,” we also learned to say after getting acquainted with Chaplain (Lt. Comdr.) Reuben W. Schrum, D.D., of the U. S. S. Saratoga.

Chaplain Schrum did not wait to be looked up but came ashore like the old sea-dog he is, (he has been in the Navy for 19 years), calling on an old friend, the Associate Editor of the Chronicle, not for purposes of publicity but friendli­ness, and upon the Bishop.

Speaking of the Bishop and the Sara­toga, the writer did not go to lunch the day the Bishop was on board with the Chaplain, but he heard about it and ex­pected to find a very reduced Bishop yet the same old enthusiasm and vitality were evidenced. You see, this Airplane Carrier has a flight deck which is only 888 feet long, the length of three foot­ball fields placed end on end, and as for the up and down distances—well one officer remarked that he had to travel a quarter of a mile from his cabin to work­ing station. Add a modified Empire State Building to three stadiums and gain some idea of the walking necessary.

There are few up and down elevators for sight-seers and ships ladders are ships ladders. The Bishop saw the whole works.

Add ninety planes, a couple of thousand men, power enough to light the city of Los Angeles and one has some idea of the parish watched over by Chaplain Schrum.

Ship ServicesJust below the flight deck is the hangar

deck running the length of the ship, where the planes are stored. It is on this deck where the Chaplain riggs up a place for his services. The accompany­ing picture shows how he has arranged his reredos, altar and lectern. There is a distinct Church atmosphere about it all and the men love it. I t was no doubt the longing for such an atmosphere and an equal longing for the vital Sacramental life of the Church which impelled Chap­lain Schrum after many years as a Presbyterian clergyman to seek Orders in the Church, resulting in his ordination as Priest in February of 1936.

Personal StoryThis leads to an interesting personal

story which we are sure the Chaplain will forgive us for repeating. Some eight

years ago his yeoman was to be married in San Pedro where his ship was stationed at the time. Arrangements were made with the writer, then Rector of St. Peter’s Church, San Pedro. Together they gave the young couple a fine wedding. The part of the Prayer Book service he was to take was pointed out to the Chaplain. After the service it was suggested that the Prayer Book be kept for use in his ship services. Then the dear old Prayer Book got in its good work, and, aided by the above mentioned longings, led to ordination. This is a lesson in the silent value of our book of worship.

сЖош£ StartA Sklrie On. St.Impressions of Navy PersonnelWe are never willing to miss an op­

portunity of saying how proud we are of enlisted boys of the United States Navy, the main object of interest of our Chap­lains. Twenty thousand of these boys landed daily in Honolulu while the Fleet was in port. Considering that they had just been through concentrated exercises, hard work, and that while bottled up on a ship, would seem to indicate what pent up energy would be expended wherever they might land. But with so few excep­tions as are hardly worth mentioning these thousands of young men conducted themselves like the gentlemen they are and won the whole-hearted respect of the community.

Aloha to the Chaplain and the men of the Fleet.

OUR COVER PICTURE

“Fifty years ago,” so says the Notes from Kohala, “Mr. Desborough, an Eng­lish resident of Kohala, has been doing some very beautiful carving for an altar piece to be given to the Episcopal Church by C. S. Kinnersley, Esq.”

W e are glad to reproduce on our cover the interior of the above mentioned Sanctuary of St. Augustine’s, Kohala, on the Island of Hawaii. This mission was established in 1882, the present Church being consecrated in 1884. Quoting from Bishop Restarick’s book, “The Altar, lectern and font were made from oak grown at Loxley Hall, an estate of the Sneyd-Kinnersley’s in England. All the costs of the improvements were met by local gifts and for many years the Kohala people paid the stipend of the priest, and also the upkeep of the property.”

St. Augustine’s is in charge of the Venerable James Walker, Archdeacon, the last number of the Chronicle contain­ing a good account of his varied activities in the localities of north and east Hawaii. His equipment of an automobile, prayer book and unbounded enthusiasm brings great results and how that man travels!

Famous Honeymoon Couples Visit Children

Just imagine the thrills which came to the children of St. M ary’s Home, Hono­lulu, when four stars from the movie heaven’s came to rest actually in the Home, talked in person with the children, and one, Mary Pickford, had her picture taken with the tiniest one of all, five months old H arry Katechista.

When the Lurline came into port July 1st bearing these four well-known actors, Mary Pickford, Buddy Rogers, and Mr. and Mrs. Gene Raymond—Mrs. Ray­mond being the charming Jeanette Mac­Donald—we have not the slightest idea how many thousands were at the dock to give them a greeting. Naturally they were sought after by their, multitude of admirers and were forced to seek a cer­tain amount of seclusion. And yet all four answered the written invitations of the children of St. Mary’s to visit the home.

The Rogers Nearly Get LostSaturday, July 7th, was the first gala

day for the children as Mary Pickford and Buddy Rogers had promised to visit them that afternoon. Even though the

engagement was for late in the afternoon the children were on tip toe very early. At four o’clock Miss Pickford telephoned that they were delayed but would be over in a few minutes. There was another slight delay as Buddy Rogers was his own chauffeur, missed the way, and wandered about for half and hour. Fin­ally shouts of “here they come, here they come,” heralded their approach. Then followed an informal hour in which the famous couple showed much interest in the children, talking individually with many of them, and Miss Pickford seemed happy in posing with wee Harry.

While Miss Pickford admired the little

chapel, her husband entertained the chil­dren by playing for them on the piano, and then asked the children to play for him. Upon leaving they shook hands with everyone and said they would visit St. Mary’s the next time they were in Hono­lulu if they were invited. An invitation was immediately forthcoming and with much waving of hands they departed leaving a lot of excited children who will long remember the visit. Miss Pickford spoke of having entertained Bishop and

Mrs. Ivins of Milwaukee shortly before leaving Hollywood.

Gene Raymond and a Honeymoon Cookie

Jeanette MacDonald and Gene Ray­mond were intrigued by a letter of in­vitation to visit the Home written by one of the children, lima Wilson, and they replied with a cordial acceptance, being brought for the visit by Mrs. Moly- neaux. They were a most charming couple, asking first of all to see the girl who had written them the invitation

which had pleased them so much. Cheer­fully they signed their names to many pictures and autograph books.

Probably the hit of the afternoon came to the bridegroom when at refreshment time he discovered a cookie made to represent two hearts entwined. And so the second special afternoon ended as they left laden with leis made by the children themselves, leaving as well a very fragrant and happy memory.

TRIENNIAL THEME

Three years ago the women of the Church came together to listen, to discuss and to plan. The theme then was, “ If we be His Disciples.” This autumn we are asked again to come, to listen, to learn and take home to those who can­not come. In other words, the Triennial meets in Cincinnati, October 6th to 20th. The theme this time is “Fellowship in Faith and W ork.” This is chosen so as to tie up our meeting with the two great Conferences this summer, the one in O x­ford, England, on “Life and W ork” ; the other in Edinburgh, Scotland, on “Faith and Order”, which will deal with Church unity throughout the world. So in our theme we have taken one word from each conference and added the word Fellow­ship. That is a large order—true fellow­ship means so much. Say it over to yourself— Fellowship in Life and Work.

ATTENTION NOT DRIVE

Plans are being made for a memorial to the late Bishop Lloyd. As this will be in no sense a drive, but a very personal thing, it is requested that those who knew and loved him should give their names to Mrs. W. S. Fraser, who, as president of the Woman’s Auxiliary, has been asked by Dr. John W. Wood of the National Council, to compile a list of friends living in the diocese of Honolulu who would be interested in hearing more about the pro­posed memorial.

Suec6&&|ju£ Sum.rn.6n Sckoaf at 6pi.pkan.tyThe Summer Vacation Church School

at Liholiho School, which was conducted by the Episcopal Church under the direc­tion of Epiphany Mission, held its closing exercises at the school on Friday morn­ing, July 16th.

Two religious plays were given, one by the kindergarten children, and the other by the children in the grades. These plays have been under the direction of Deaconess Swinburne and the teachers of the school. The kindergarten children enacted a little play “Moses,” and the rest of the school enacted “Lady Catechism and The Child.”

The Vacation School, which began on June 21st, has been somewhat of a de­parture from the average summer bible school. Having observed the harm done by confusing the child’s mind with con­flicting ideas, a. course of study which would be positive in its teachings was chosen. Along with the Christian N ur­ture Series, which was chosen, the com­mittee was fortunate in obtaining a book­let on the teachings of the Church which had just been published by the Forward Movement Commission, and this was used to supplement the work of the other course of study. Handwork was used to help the children visualize the courses they were studying.

The school was very fortunate in obtaining the services of teachers who were particularly fitted for the work

which was given them to do. They were Miss Marion Kinney, Mrs. Gladys Pearce, Mrs. R. H. Crane, and Miss Catherine Lewis. In addition to these teachers Fr. Nelson was fortunate in obtaining the part-time services of Dea­coness Sarah F. Swinburne, of St. Eliza­beth’s Mission, whose long experience in young people’s and children’s work in the Church aided greatly in the success of the school.

The school was operated as an experi­ment to learn the advisability of extend­ing the work of the diocese in taking advantage of the vacation time by the children in giving them the opportunity for additional Christian education. The school was made possible due to dona­tions from interested members of this Church in Honolulu.

The Bishop of Kentucky tells of a bank in his diocese where the staff gathers prior to the opening of the doors in the morning for a quiet moment with Christ. No wonder the atmosphere there is dif­ferent.

Dr. Victor Heiser in his monumental book “An Odyssey of an American Doctor” speaks of Moses as the greatest pioneer sanitary engineer. This is a very good description of that equally capable labor leader.

CONFERENCE ON LIFE AND WORK

Representatives of most of the Chris­tian Churches of the world are meeting this month at Oxford, England, in a significant conference on Life and Work. The sad part is that Church representa­tives of totalitarian States will not be present. Hitler has refused passports to the German delegates .who planned to at­tend. The Fascist, Communist, or Nazi philosophy is not interested in such a gathering, nor in the subject under dis­cussion, which is, “Church and State.” And so delegates from democratic coun­tries will wrestle with this vital problem.

How vital it is can be illustrated by the five sections dealing with various aspects of the question. The first two sections are The Church and the Com­munity, and The Church and the State. Just what is the Church is one question which has to be settled. The splits of the 11th and 16th centuries proved this ques­tion is enormously pertinent to the Chris­tian life. Is the Church Catholic, as we Anglicans are stressing, or Protestant, or what?

The third section deals with the prob­lem of Church, Community, and State in relation to the Social Order. Nice little controversial topics such as distribution of wealth, capitalism, and all economic questions come under this head. Then think of the dynamics of the fourth sec­tion dealing with Church, Community and State in relation to Education. The State having taken over education without Christianity seems to have led us into a sorry mess. How can that problem be solved ?

Then there is the fifth section taking up the problem of The Universal Church and the World of Nations. The war question with all its tentacles of approach comes into this discussion.

One would come to the conclusion that this Conference will be worth watch­ing and that we ought to do something about it. There is a fine prayer in the back of the Forward Movement booklet. W ith that as a motive of our intercessions on the subject we can really help.— Prom St. Clement’s Kalendar.

HERE AND THERE IN THE DIOCESE

New Rectory at Good SamaritanThe contract was let on July 14th for

a new vicarage at Good Samaritan. W ork has already been started on the building, and it is hoped that it will be ready for occupancy some time in September. It is located on the Good Samaritan grounds, makai of the main building. This two- bedroom cottage will be roomy and com­fortable for the family of the Rev. B. S. Ikezawa, who have been occupying a small apartment in the main building. This older building will also undergo minor repairs and outside painting this summer.

VacationsFr. Bray left for the mainland in June

soon after the close of school for a three- month stay. Fr. Taft is caring for both the Hawaiian Congregation and St. Mark’s Mission during his absence.

Archdeacon and Mrs. Henry Willey of All Saints’, Kapaa, Kauai, were in Honolulu for a few days, and are now occupying the rectory of the Church of the Good Shepherd, Wailuku, Maui. Mr. Willey reports that Mrs. Willey’s health is slowly improving.

The Rev. and Mrs. C. Fletcher Howe of Wailuku are staying at the Bishop’s House during their vacation this month. The Howes are particularly happy at this time over the birth of their first grand­child, born to Mr. and Mrs. Lee Mc­Kinney on the first day of July.

The Rev. Kenneth Perkins was also on Maui for a brief stay during July. He was able to visit many parts of Maui, and reports a splendid time.

Capt. and Mrs. Henry Hamilton of Eleele, Kauai, are in Honolulu at the Bishop’s House. Capt. Hamilton is at­tending a course at the University of Hawaii in recreational direction. Capt. Harold Wilmot Smith of Eleele came from Kauai also to attend the Christian Conference at Kokokahi, beginning on

e 17th day of July. He stayed for a few days with Capt. Roberts of St. John s-by-the Sea, Kahaluu.

News From St. Elizabeth’sThere has been considerable activity at

bt. Elizabeth’s Mission in spite of our warm weather. On the 10th of July, the Rev. and Mrs. Wai On Shim gave a re-

ception in the vicarage for all those in­terested in the Mission. A large number of the congregation and interested friends attended.

Each Monday evening a group of young men is meeting together for the purpose of forming a Male Chorus. The formation of this Chorus is accomplish­ing two ends, that of creating fellowship among the members, and of rendering service to the Mission.

On Sunday, July 18th, the Rev. C. Fletcher Howe of the Church of the Good Shepherd, Wailuku, Maui, was the guest preacher. A fter the morning serv­ice, a reception for the Rev. and Mrs. Wai On Shim was given in the parish house by the congregation.

Returned as a “ Doctor”The associate editor of the Hawaiian

Church Chronicle returned from the mainland on July 1st. The degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred on Mr. Brown by his alma mater, Illinois Col­lege in June. The C h r o n i c l e and the diocese welcome back our latest “D.D.”

A Visitor to ChinaMrs. S. W. Chang, for manv years

parish vistor of St. Peter’s, and head of the Chinese School there, sailed for China on the Empress of Japan with her son, John. This will be Mrs. Chang’s first visit back to China since her arrival here 23 years ago with her father, the Rev. Y. C. Shim. While there she will visit her younger brother and her aged grand­mother, in Hongkong. The grandmother is 97 years old.

A nother Project FinishedThe last of the six houses to be built

on ground belonging to St. Elizabeth’s Mission has been finished, and the new tenants moved in on July 1st. There are now nine houses standing on the ground where the old Procter Lodge stood for so many years, adding much to the attrac­tiveness of the surroundings.

The Associate Editor, responsible for this publication while the Bishop is away, does not know at this writing the cash position of the Treasury but suspects that it is on the red side—hence please start the gift checks prior to the hysterical appeal in the Fall.

Among the twelve candidates for Honorary Degrees given at the Com­mencement of Trinity College we find the name of the Bishop of Honolulu. The Senior Proctor in presenting the candidates to the President to receive their awards used the following words:

Est nobiscum hodie, praeses reverende, alumnus huius collegii qui post diploma acceptum in urbibus Oxford et Novo Eboraco studiis se dedit, qui per triginta annos missarius inter Seres evangelium praedicabat et nunc diocesim in insulis occidentalibus dirigit: cuius fratres et filii hoc in collegio studuerunt. Hunc episcopum reverendissimum ad te duco Samuelem Harrington Litteli..

If anyone would care for a free trans­lation of the above we take pleasure in doing so:

“Today, Mr. President, we have with us an alumnus of this college, who, after receiving degrees in the cities of Oxford and New York, for thirty years preached the Gospel among the Chinese, as a mis­sionary. Now he directs the affairs of a diocese in the Western isles. He has had both brothers and sons in this col­lege. So I bring before you our candi­date, the Right Reverend Samuel H ar­rington Litteli, Bishop of Honolulu.”

W e send our heartiest congratulations from the Diocesan family to our Bishop upon receiving so significant an honor.

President of Illinois College Also Honored

The president of Illinois College at Jacksonville, Illinois, Dr. Harold C. Ja- quith, received the degree of Doctor of Laws at this same commencement. We feel this fact is interesting because it was at Illinois College that the associate editor received an honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity. In a letter just received from Dr. Jaquith, he speaks of the pleas­ure he had in meeting Bishop Litteli, reporting several delightful conversations with him.

MRS. LITTELL WRITES FROM FLORENCE

Pensione Annalena, Florence.Mav 10.

Giotto: Died 1337, 600 Years Ago“It seems to get more wonderful here

each day. We have tickets for this after­noon to hear Dr. Tialdi speak on Giotto at the special exhibition of Giotto’s pic­tures at the Uffizi, in commemoration of the 600th year since his death (1337). This morning we spent at San Marco, and in the Belli Arti, and this evening we go to the Russian Ballet.

“Yesterday we went to lovely little St. M ark’s English Church at 8:30, and later to St. • James’ American Church. Dr. Chauncey, the rector, preached a magnificent sermon on the Ascension. The Church was full. A fter luncheon, we took the tram and went with the Sun­day afternoon mobs to Fiesole, where we had tea and prowled around the monastery and quaint Church, and watched the sun­set and misty glow come over Florence and her hills and valleys.

No Need For Hui Manu in Florence“Tomorrow morning, Nancy is going

with the teacher of German at Siena University to hear a German lecture on Giotto. I shall browse around. In the afternoon we go on the tour of the gar­dens (with Cook’s). I wonder if it is for the Hui Manu Society! But there are so many birds here; no more are needed. Wednesday we shall listen to the Coronation; go rowing on the river in the afternoon, and squeeze in a church or two somewhere during the day.

W elcom e to the Royal FamilyTuesday, May 11.

“Did I tell you what you gave me for a birthday present ? A pair of opera glasses with a handle, which I used last night at the Ballet Russe. The theater, a huge one, was packed to its capacity. We went an hour and a half early, as our seats were not numbered, and we got good ones. The reserved seats had been sold out. The Princess was there (not the Prince), and we could see the Royal Box from where we were. When she came in, the royal anthem was played and the people rose, cheered, and clapped. She has just had a son, and has pleased the populace thereby. She has great charm and dignity. The Ballet Russe

was good, as it always is. It was 12:30 when it ended.

“I wish you could have seen-the Palazzo Vecchio and the Ponte last night illumi­nated brilliantly in honor of the visit of the Royal Family. All beyond my power to describe.”

Siena: “ Otello” and NotablesMay 14.

“Yesterday was a gala day, begin­ning with the tour to Siena and San Gimignano. The road shot us up to picturesque towns on the tops of hills, then down over the other side to rich valleys with grape vines everywhere— for this is the Chianti country—with vege­tables and wheat growing in every avail­able spot, between rows of vines. It was superb. We had a miserable guide, but I knew Siena so well that it didn’t mat­ter. We wandered off around the Cathe­dral and other places without needing him. Miss Poirier has been grand to us, and last night took me to the opera-house for Verdi’s “Otello,” in connection with the music festival. On my return from Siena, I found a black evening dress, coat, bag, and accessories laid out on my bed, as it was de rinuer to be in evening dress, and I had none with m e! The house was packed. Nancy sat in the gal­lery with the other younp- people here in the Annalena. It was great fun seeing all the folks in full dress, and having Miss Poirier point out the counts and duchesses and writers and musicians. She knows them all—quite a different slant on life for me. The Opera wasn’t over until one o’clock. I have been up late several nights, but Venice will be kind, and tomorrow we shall beach ourselves there, on the Lido, and rest.”

FROM A SCIENTIST

The conclusions of modern science are well-given in the words of William James—that the sum of all that is known about religion warrants us in saying, ( 1) that the visible world is a part of a more spiritual universe from which it draws its chief significance; (2 ) that union or harmonious relations with that higher universe is our true end; and (3) that prayer or inner communion with the Spirit thereof is a process wherein work is really done and spiritual energy flows in and produces effects psychological or material within the phenomenal world.

ST. JO H N ’S-BY-THE-SEA KAHALUU

By Capt. W. A. RobertsA four weeks Church Vacation School

has been held at Waiahole School with over forty children present each morning. „On one Friday they held a service at St. John’s followed by games and a picnic. Some of the older children were taken to Honolulu to visit some of the City Churches, in connection with their course of lessons, and on the final day, joined with other schools of Windward Oahu, at a program and picnic at Hauula.

A Boy Scout Troop is being formed at the Mission and a Weekly Club for boys and young men is held, for games of checkers, table tennis and badminton. The weekly Bible Class on Thursday evenings is studying St. John’s Gospel, and is followed by a prayer meeting when intercessions are offered for Mis­sionary Work, Church Army, and other Missions on the islands.

A Monthly Service of Prayer for Heal­ing is also held on the last Thursday of the month. This service is similar to the Healing Service held at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, and names of sick people are prayed for and thanksgiving is of­fered for health. We are planning a Gift Day in September towards a badly needed new Chapel, we would ask the prayers of friends for this purpose.

A Rummage Sale will also be held shortly, and any gifts of clothing, etc., towards this will be gratefully accepted. We wonder whether there are any small chairs and tables for kindergarten chil­dren anywhere not being used? St. John’s Sunday School could make good use of them. We need about twenty chairs. If any Church people are vacationing on the Windward side of Oahu, we cordially in­vite them to worship with us on Sundays at 9 a. m.

The new Parish House for St. Clement’s Church, Honolulu, is nearing completion and will be ready for the Fall work. This is the first unit of a com­prehensive building program which will see a renewal of all the parish buildings.

e p i p h a n y n o t e b u r n e d

On the first of May, this year, an open letter was printed in the “Epiphany Kai- muki News.” This open letter was ad­dressed to “The Members and Friends of Epiphany Mission”, and in substance stated that an attempt was being made to pay off the amount still due on a note held by The Bishop National Bank for money loaned to The Mission Church of the Epiphany for the purchase of the present Vicarage. The letter was signed by the Vestry of the Mission.

Under the leadership of Mr. Chester Frowe, Warden, members and friends of the Mission were contacted and the situa­tion explained to them. “Bricks” were sold at $5.00 a brick to raise the money necessary to pay off the note. Donations were received not only from members and friends of the Mission in Honolulu, but from people on the mainland, people who had known the work Epiphany has done and who were most desirous of helping the Mission increase its scope of work in the future.

On the third Sunday in June, Mr. Frowe advised the Vicar that the amount necessary for the paying off of the face of the note, along with the current in­terest due, had been received and that the note had been paid in full and the can­celled note turned over to the W arden by the bank.

On Monday evening, June 28th, at the Aloha party held in honor of Mrs. Amy Sullivan, the note was burned. W ith this there was lifted from the shoulders of the Mission a burden which had long sapped its resources and prevented it do­ing the work it could have done had it not been necessary to use its resources in the meeting of the interest payments on the note.

ST. PETER S CHURCH

Mrs. Flora S. Chang on FurloughAfter teaching for 23 years as a

Chinese language teacher in St. Peter’s Mission, Mrs. Chang left here on July 16 to enjoy a well earned vacation. Since coming here in 1914 to join her father the late Rev. Shim Yin Chin, the founder of St. John’s Mission, at Kula, Maui, this is the first visit she has paid to her native land. A part from being a teacher she is also a very zealous church worker. In 1933 on the recommendation of the Vicar, the Bishop appointed her as Parish Visitor. The most commendable piece of work is the wonderful way she has built up the U. T. O. of this mission. In 1933 about 30 women contributed about the like amount of dollars. Today practically all the women of this mission are contributing, with the result that last year over $200.00 were given, and $126.00 was collected and given over to the Diocesan U. T. O. treasurer for the first half year of 1937. In connection with this, a Special Corporate Communion was held on the first Sunday of July as the U. T. O. Sunday, at which all women were requested to participate. It is our hope that before long we shall have our own U. T. O. workers in the Mission fields in China.

W e also like to mention that John Chang (M rs. Chang’s son) has gone with her too. John had been very helpful in printing and running the mimeograph machine and took care of all the smaller printing jobs in connection with this Mission and the Diocesan Woman’s Auxiliary.

W e wish them a delightful time. * --------

HAWAIIAN-JAPANESE STUDENTS IN JAPAN

Portion of a letter to Bishop Littell from the Secretary of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew in Japan:

“We all are most grateful for the wonderful welcome you gave to our young secretary, Mr. Tadao Kaneko, and it was a real pleasure to hear the reports from him and the press regarding his reception there.

“We have two Hawaiian-Japanese students here at St. Paul’s who are prov­ing to be admirable Churchmen and are setting a fine example for the student body. Quite a number more are in other schools, many of which belong to a society which now uses the parish house of Holy Trinity Church, Tokyo, for their gatherings. At our recent Brotherhood camps we have had from five to ten Hawaiian born young men as members. I hope whenever any of your young men happen to come this way for study or visits they will look me up. The second generation problem is now a big one here, we have more than 1,000 registered Hawaiian and mainland Tapanese study­ing in Tokyo’s higher schools. I am one of a Committee in the America-Japan Society here to deal with them. They do not have an easy time coming to the land of their ancestors and the natives do not take to them very readily. For a good part they are like young people lost in a sea of humanity. It would be a great help, for instance, if you would insert some notice in the Hawaiian Church Chronicle to the effect that your priests should on knowing of any of their young people coming to Japan, give them letters to me here at S t.' Paul’s or to the Rev. K. A. Viall, S.S.J.E., at Holy Trinity Church, Aoyama Itchome, Tokyo. We could then keep in touch with them and in many cases help them find places to live, give advice about schools, etc.”

With kind best wishes, I am Sincerely yours,

PA U L RUSCH. * --------

EARLY DAYS OF IOLANI SCHOOL (ST. ALBAN’S)

By Mildred E. Staley(From cuttings and Bishop Staley’s

diaries and letters, 1865-68)“The Female-' Industrial Boarding

School (S t. Andrew’s' Priory) is by no <gj*lri$eans the only- feature of interest here

. . . Archdeacon Mason, assisted by an American priest, carries on an English School for boys, supported partly by the Board of Education grants. . . . He has about 80 boys of whom 25 are boarders. The object which we have in view is to give a thorough education in English to Hawaiian boys. I t is a sad commentary on 40 years of native schools, that the business of the government, from the ministers down to the petty magistrates or sheriff’s officer, has to be entrusted with rare exception to foreigners.

Little progress can be expected among a people with a language so inadequate in its vocabulary and its literature as the Haw aiian; nor through it as a medium can those righteous ideals and principles be implanted in the young which are so essential to all who desire to properly fulfill offices of trust either in the Church or in the State. The Government there­fore apprentices a number of promising youths to this school of ours, commoners, in the hope of creating a body of intelli­gent and trustworthy men, fully educated from early years in the English language, taught to think and reason justly in Eng­lish, familiar with English literature and modern trends of thought, so that they may be able to take a leading part in guiding their nation, and in administer­ing the government and judiciary of the Kingdom.

Our boys receive practical teaching in the principles of healthful living, modern science, the causes of disease and how to prevent them. Even the day-scholars get home only at sundown, for the evening meal and sleep. Boarders rarely spend more than a day or two at home, though visiting parents are welcomed, and often learn a good deal during their visits! It is difficult to get them to leave and go home sometimes. There is no doubt that such schools, if multiplied, would in a few years oust the horrible native super­stitions and the evil practices of the medicine men. But except for the few chief families, there is great opposition to offering such a fine English educa­tion to the mass of the people. . . . But our Church, small as it is, believes that every child should have equal opportunity to acquire the best he is capable of, since all are equal in God’s sight.
