ers and educated abroad. In con
temptation she always had high
hopes and splendid ambition with
relation TO her career amongst her
people. Those hopes vanished all
a once ike when the sunlight
seemingly leaves when a black and
heavy cloud comes out OF The
mountains. She commanded the
highest respect by the attitude
which she assumed when these Sc

I want 10 add my flower 20 her
wreath, the same as am sure does
every parent and every child in Ha-
waii nei. Love is a flower trans
planted from Heaven and all who
knew kaiulani loved her.
There is a lesson in the life and
death OF this lovely young woman.
Life here is fragmentary. broken.
incomplete. IL is the lot OF all 10
meet with disappOintments and re-
verses and 10 fail to realize fond
hopes or noble ideals. For that
reason all should look 20 another
life. In the long ago a man came
20 this world from Heaven and told

broken here would be mended IN
the hereafter. that the oppor,un-
tiles could be worked out satssfac-
torily. She has gone to that hav-
en-. In your lives follow her ex-
ample. Do not waste time upon the
past, but look and struggle onward
and upward.
