a newspaper receive a communities

people annually passing from the
schools into business life, it is rare
to find one who writes anything for a
newspaper--communication, report,
or advertisement-whi has not to
be corrected before printing, in
breaches of the most elementary
rules of syntaX, punctuation, and
capitalization, not TO mention lapses

The fair critic, however, should have
warned the young hopefuls who might
have aspirations after journalistic
glory, that their good grammar
would be required to be winged with
a facility that would keep up with

forty words minute--the rate at
which newspaper reports have fire.

DEAR SIR Allow me as a repre-

Government, my heartfelt coincidence
to the widow and relatives of the late
King David Kalakaua and to the peo-

terrible loss.
Believe me, the citizens of San
Francisco mourn with you with the
deepest solicitude in this your afflic-
lion and mingle their prayers with
yours, that the Giver of every good
thing may aid you in bearing the
heavy burden of sorrow.
We realize that the widow of our
deceased friend has lost the staff OF
oak she has so long leaned upon, but
there is One on whom we can all cast
our burdens, 81 hat one who left his
home to die for us"
We hope the kind, loving care OF
Jesus may sustain her in her dark
and lonely hours.
To all her friends and family we
offer our earnest prayers and sympa-
thies and pray that heaven may take
them under its kind protection.
We all mourn but still look forward
to that bright day when Monarch and
people will be united. Let US look
forward to that land beyond the stars
where parting is forever unknown.
With the kindest wishes for your
future welfare and for the people Of
the Hawaiian Islands.
l remain, yours truly,
