WORK IN KAKAAKo.

I hereby present to you a partial re-
port of the work of Loyal Temperance
Legion in Kakaako:
Organized June 2Sth with eighty chill
dren present.
During vacation we held meetings
once each week to learn songs and
drills. We have a boys and girls COM
pany with separate officers, and often
march through the streets following
drum and flags. and entertain them
with refreshments at our home once
month
We have held tweve meetings with
an average attendance of forty chill
drep. Fifty children are now wearing
signed pledge cards.
There is in this neighborhood a very
strong opposition, not only to temper
ance work." but even the plain simple
Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ is
opposed. The children would like to
become members and attend all meet
ings, were it not for fear. Some take
chances. but if found out are. sure TO
be punished. After our experience
this people and all that is said
and done against our work, we rest
fully on the promise of Him who has
said, 81 will be with you even unto
the end
And thus we rejoice for the privi-
ledge of sowing the seed which is the
word and pointing them to a pure,
clean life.

SCATTERING TRACTS.

Our Secretary of Literature quietly
laid down the work she so loved and
so patiently did and went to her rest
and reward, and, 1 in her place, have
tried to carry out her plans and sug
gestions.
The leaflets with their pretty little
helpful stories, were put into the hands
of teachers and parents. Some were
given to the sailors and Salvation
Army workers. The Kakaako mission
received some and others were given to
the japanese and Chinese workers.
Several booklets on social purity were
given to one interested in native girls
and many of the stories and songs were
taught to our children at the Castle
Home, in the form of home entertain
ments.
It sometimes seems it would be well
for some one TO take these stories into
the country districts where the teach
ers are young and inexperienced and
visit the country churches and call the
children in and teach them, giving
them in the form of entertainments,
where the parents and friends might
become interested. It would give them
thoughts more helpful and uplifting
than are common to them.
Simple as these stories are some of
the workers have said ''They are too
hard for the children to understand"
The Principal of Lahainaluna said,
They were glad to have the sympathy
of the W. c. T. Z. and would use the
literature in their school

work of this department. such as cam
paign and local option subjects, was

The bill introduced into Congress by Congressman

The provisions of this bill are acceptable to many

States. The artists adopted the ffty-year clause
TO remove the opposition that the dealers have al
ways maintained for the reason that they have
large stocks of modern pictures in their ware

not only the art producers-the artsts-but all the
