YOU WILL FORGET.


You will forget-a few swift hours,
Fortune and fame and all TO WOO.
And ere the bloom forsakes the flowers
The lips you kiss have kissed for you.
And ere tomorrows sun is set.
You will forget.
You win forget-a mile or so.
And out of sight is out of mind:
The easy tears soon cease 10 flow
When lifos before aud loves behind;
Ave. love, while still your eyes are wet,
You will forget.
You will forget-in other years
When you behold that white starshine
We see so dimly through the tears;
When you shall pass these doors OF mine
or that dear spot where first we met,
You Will forget.
You will forget-let me love on,
You have been all in all TO me;
So when the past Is dead and gone,
Like some golden phantasy,
Let me love on, TO pay my debt
You will forget.

And our admiration rightly

And treat.
So let's hang the bills for dollars.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL.

Hawaii is always bound to keep pace
with the times, and no movement of
late years in educational circles has
been more gratifying or more indica-
tive of progress than the establishment
of the summer school for teachers,
necessity of some organization to
bring the teachers of the different ISL
ands into closer union has been appre-
ciated for some time past. Associa-
tions have been formed in Honolulu
and throughout the outside districts,
and they have met with a varying de-
gree of success. Some are still in eX-
istence and the members keep up their
interest in the gatherings, while others
have gradually passed into a state of
innocuous desuetude and remained in
that condition until under the influence
of a returning spirit of enthusiasm
they have been revived for a short time
In the summer school, however, the
teachers of Hawaii ought to find a suf-
icient renewal of enthusiasm, gained
by coming in contact with colaborers
and receiving new ideas from various
lectures, to give a new impetus to the
local teachers organizations, and a re-
newed interest in their work on the
part of individual teachers. The num-
Der of teachers already gathered in the
city gives promise of success so far as
attendance goes, and the personnel of
the faculty is assurance that there will
be nothing lacking in the character of
the instruction. At the outset of this
new departure, for this country, there
is every reason to predict successful
term of midsummer study, the bene-
fetal effects of which will be felt in
every school in the land.

low, and his influence over the Ha-
waiians was marked and uplifting.
Careful in all his efforts, indomitable
in his efforts, kindly and CHEEKY TO all
honest endeavor, his personal force of
character impressed similar character
istics upon many of his people. OF late
years, when laid aside from active la
Dor, his interest in every good work
was as warm as ever; and as means
came to him from the industrial enter
prises he had started, he gave most lib
orally to the many objects of Christian
benevOlence that called out his sympa-
thies. He Will be sorely missed, not
only in the district of Kohala, but in all
the higher activities and interests of
life at the Islands.

On account of the United States and
Great Britain having exchanged blows
in two wars, and furthermore because
Americans and Englishmen are cousins,
it is usually taken as a foregone concIu-
sion that English hate Yankees, and
vice versa. This "goes" very well for
campaign purposes, but now and again
there crop up an exchange of pleas
antries indicating that men on both
sides of the water can occasionally stop
for breath and look at the amusing
side of the family troubles. The London
Telegraph in it's Fourth of July leader
gives the following humorous twist in
paying Americans the compliments of
the season: THE English are not so
unreasonable as to expect that the time
honored custom of twisting the tail of
the British lion should at once and al
together be abandoned. We should be
glad to dispel the widespread fiction
that so long as positive dislocation is
avoided the animal feels nothing We
can assure Americans that the tail is
fully supplied with all the mechanism
of sensation, and even at this moment
when its owner is waving a friendly
Fourth of July salute to his former tor
mentors, he is not unconscious of a
certain soreness and stiffness at its
rOOts''
