arouse sentiment in favor of the bill
which Congressman Littlefield, of
Maine, has introduced, prohibiting the
sale to the aborigines of the Pacific

The two lecturers will remain for
some two weeks in the Islands, until
the work is well under way. Miss
Alderman is well known in Honolulu,
having been here before. Miss Mer-
