MALE and gardenias.
P. C. JoNES'S REMARKS.
After the band had played The Pill
grims Chorus" from Tannhauser Mr..
P. Jones made a short address which
was not on the printed program but
which nevertheless caused great en-
thusiasm as il meant that the two new
dormitories planned to take the place
of the present buildings which are
both Anticipated and crowded are as
sured. Mr.. Jones's remarks were as
follows:
Friends. at a meeting of Trustees
held last week plans were submitted
Tor new dOrmitory. There are two
of three in contemplate ton now-two
dormitories and d common dining and
living hall-a building similar TO Bfng-
ham Hall. The only thing lacking is
funds Fortunately and very happily
just as 1 was coming out here a gem
tleman handed me most pleasing let
ter telling of his desire to contribute
$4,000 to Punahou for himself and his
wife. both of whom We're former pupils
of this college. Since coming into the
College grounds a little bird whispered
that a friend will probably contribute
$4,000. AS We estimate the cost of
these buildings, we shall require S75 900
more. 1 do not expect to raise that
amount here today but l want you to
think about it,
| had the privilege the other day OF
reading the will of a gentleman-a
privilege which is not usual-and I saw
there that $4,000 were to be given TO
Punahou when the testator died. I
hope that, if he is here. he will make
up his mind to give it before he dies
Mr.. Dole has said 20 you that Puma
hou boys usually land on their feet.
l would like to give little reminis-
cence before We go. Judge Dole has
told about the old times and although
do not remember as far back as that,
remember when Mr.. Dole was fifteen
years old remember it because 1 am
six years older than he is. At one OF
the usual church socials held in town.
Judge Dole who was a Punahou boy
at that time, stored away so much
cake and coffee as to leave the impress
sion that there was no cake and coffee
on the Punahou bill-of-fare in those
days

warmly to congratulate her on her
first effort The jury paid a still

HANDICAP OF GRAY HAIR.
Question Of Great Economic Import
ance is Thus Raised.

Question Of Great Economic Import
ance is Thus Raised.
Age in a virtuous person of either
sex, says Steele, carries in it an au-
thority which makes it preferable to
all the pleasures of youth.
This pleasantly sentimental view of
the decline of life, apparently preva-
lent in the days of the Spectator, has
been outgrown by society. Robert
Burton's idea that age is a distinct
cause of melancholy is far nearer the
trutn today. Civilization seems to be
gradually approaching condition
when it will have either to pension Off
or kill off it's older individuals.
What the Spectator calls the lamen-
table tendency to refuse employment
to the middle aged is undoubtedly in
creasing in both England and Amer
lea.
The subway authorities announce
that only young men are employed on
the line. The Carnegie Steel Works
have fixed thirty-fye and forty years
as the latest age of admission to their
pay roll. The railroads regularly give
the preference 10 younger men.
The effect of the employers liabil-
ity act il England had been, it is .aid,
to produce a prejudice against the
older class Of workman, although one
would naturally suppose tnar what
they lack in Quickness AID agility is
more than offset by their greater eau
ton.
According to the Liverpool poor au-
thorities, large numbers Of working
men in order to appear younger, now
dye their hair, and it is well known
that a considerable class of male as
well as female servants systematicai-
Iy lie about their age because of this
prejudice in favor of youth.
In England the older skilled arti-
sans are being increasingly driven
from the cities by the younger men.
In this country, at any rate, the handi-
cap of gray hair is by no means lint
tied to the lower grades Of labor, ma
turity in clerks, bookkeepers, cash
iers, bank tellers, etc, is considered
distinct detriment.
AS the result of a great business
concerns decease several years ago d
number of competent and trustwor-
thy middle aged men, VINO had held
their positions for from twenty to for
ty years, are still walking the streets
looking for work or occupying poorly
paid posts far beneath their true ca
pacity. This is not because there IS
any lack of positions suited to their
abilities, but because younger men,
even if less efficient, are preferred.
question Of very considerable eco
nomic Importance is thus raised. A
goodly proportion the great majority
probably, Of salaried men and artisans
do not succeed in achieving financial
independence before the age of forty
is reached, and if the present tend
ency continues, the time may come
when every one Of these who loses his
position after middle life will, per
force, become burden on his chill
dren or society at large.
1t would be cheaper to kill and eat
them, as our primitive ancestors used
to do-New York Globe.
