Are Hawaiian teachers so scarce
are there so few to be obtained
from abroad that we must employ
teachers from whom scholars,
parents and fellow-teachers shrink
with feelings of fear and repulsion?
Is it to the interests of the schools?
Is it strictly guarding the physical
condition of the scholars? Is it

which an emphatic "no" must be
said.
If a teacher is suspected of being
a leper, he should be dismissed at

family have been removed to Molo-
kai or elsewhere, it is not too early
to remove all possible contact in

Aerial Navigation.

Tn recent number of the Forum
Prof. II. ii. Thurston, director OF the
schools of mechanical engineering OF
Cornell University, discusses III an
entertaining way the "Problem OF
Air Navigation" After reviewing
many interesting experiments in aero
nautics, Prof. Thurston thus speaks oil
the probability of the ultimate sOlu-
ton of the problem.
'The researches of Langley have
shown the power demanded for flight
to be about 2 per cent of the amount
once supposed minimum. We know
that natures energy can be directly
converted into useful power through
the production of electricity, as in the
pvmnotus, and possibly In all animal
nechanisms. We know that modern
storage batteries are ten times the

tors have been made light enough and

inventors have constructed have sus-
tanned their heavy weights in drifting

animals. His predecessors the bats

is to be found in the fact that the vol

increased demand. The stringency Is
not confined to New York, but pre-
walls relatively in all parts of the coun-

the liberal additions which he made to
the circulation have not proved Sutii-

The Chicago Freie Press (republi-

due TO the prohibition laws in the
western states, passed or advocated by
the republicans, to the unnecessary
hardships against the German paro-
chial schools, contained in the new
school laws of Wisconsin and Illinois,
and to the Mckinley bill. The latte
has been misrcpresented and not suf-
ficienily explained. Before giving it
q chance to demonstrate its effects, it
was considered as an unnecessary new
burden on the consumers. Tie Freie
Prcsse is of the opinion that the re-
publican barty can not carry some OF
the western states in the next presi-
dental election if the party continues
to drive the German vote into the
ranks by measures consld-
cred by many as hostile against per-
sonal, pare ltal and religious rights.
