claiming that the Philippines are Of
no necessity to the great country than

IMPERIALISM.

The "official" organs of Hawaii are

They follow in the wake OF the pa

them about the dangers and trials

it is attempted to force into the

A Delightful Companion.

Imagine a friend who would listen
to recital of your troubles, give you
help and encouragement, and never
tell soul; who would visit you regu-
larly without waiting for you to re-
turn the call, and who would always
leave you feeling brighter and happier
than when she came; who would give
you the cream of the late news in a
few words, and never forget to bring
a budget of helpful suggestions to
make your work easier. What would
you not give for such a friend! How
eagerly would you look forward to her
coming and how disappointed would
you be should she fail to put in an
appearance at the customary time.
Like semi-monthly visits from a
dear friend." That is what is said of
''The Housekeeper" by all it's readers,
and the lady who has not had this
most delightful home companion has
missed treat. 1t is loss for which
there is no good reason, for none need
be deprived of it's visits since the sub
scription price is only fifty cents a
year, and they who have not that
amount of money can earn the maya
zine in an afternoon by persuading
two friends to subscribe.
The progressive housekeeper will
find this magazine invaluable, for it
tells the best and easiest way to do all
necessary work, and helps her to econ
omize not only in money, but in time
and strength as well. 1t keeps her
informed as to the most important
news of the day, and furnishes inter
esting reading for her entertainment
when she is too tired to care for any
thing except fiction. The serial story
in the present volume is from the pen
of John Strange Winter, and is con-
sidered one Of the best of the many
good stories written by this bright
author. Many of the short stories are
furnished by well known writer's, and
all are far above the stories usually

Answer ChiId's Questions.

A child's questions should be an.
swered very carefully, yet without
suggestion, in order that there may
be no physical strain, says an expert
on kindergarten work. Hot-house
growth and undue forcing are to be
deprecated in fact strongly condemned
in the training of children. If no
suggestion be given the active little
minds will be fully satisfied with the
answers given when once the habit
has been established in the child S
mind that his questions will always
be answered. If mothers, who so often
are victimized by persistent question
erS among their own children, could
learn the value Of always answering a
child's questions from the moment he
begins to ask, remembering, however,
that all she wants to accomplish is to
satisfy the child's demand for knowl-
edge mot give him an answer that to
her mature mind seems the one to
give, in order to teach him, as so
many do, she would discover for her.
self the ease that comes with such a
method. The child very quickly finds
out the interesting fact that he can
always find out what he wants to
know by asking, hence takes things
easy. and if suggestion is avoided it
is very easy to keep normal child tC

HOWE HIGH SCHOOL.
Notes of What is Going On at Our Educa-
tionaI HEADQUARTERS,

t0nal Headquarters.
The Forum, as some people fail to
understand. is literary society or
gained and conducted with the pur-
pose Of giving to students of the High
school drill and experience in the
every day use of parliamentary law;
also to train them by practice in the
easy and natural expression of their
ideas before an audience. A room
filled with school associates does not
serve to communicate that strange
ness to a speaker which only one or
two persons from out of school will
lend to the occasion. 1t takes conf
dence to stand before the public and
tell them clearly what you think, and
that confidence is what the Forum
members are after. They can best
secure it by directing their efforts
before older heads as well as younger.
and this is why the workers continue
to urge parents and all others inter-
ested in educational affairs to attend
Forum meetings occasionally.
The scale of work in the literary
society is graduating one: First a
reading, then an essay, next declam-
alton; when the student exhibits
ability and progressiveness in this
line he or she is put on as second or
third speaker in debate, finally being
called to lead side and to talk with
out manuscript other than the usual
outline notes. All pupils are expected
to take up rhetoricals on Friday after
moons during their Freshman year.
This work is carefully watched by the
faculty. In the Sophomore year they
can join the Forum and direct their
literary ambitions therein through
the remaining three years to gradual
tion. Those who fail to respond to
assignments on the Forum program
twice in succession are expelled by
reason of that act and must return to
rhetOricalS with the Freshmen pupils.
Work in botany has been started
with class of Twenty-Five Bergen's
text book is in use. Analysis of seeds,
ETC., in the laboratory compliments
the regular course.
Examination in all departments
will occur next Thursday and Fri
day, the end of eighteen weeks Of
school. Examinations are held regu-
larly every six weeks.
The markings upon the cares
brought home by pupils every sixth
week indicate the average of daily
recitatiOnS in class work In final
exams this class standing counts two
thirds and the written quiz goes for
one-third. The pupil doing good,
faithful work each day, therefore,
need have no fear of failing. Solid,
continued application is what is
wanted and what counts.
