opinion.
One of the objections, indeed the only
tangible one, offered to the scheme is
that if the Portuguese took most of
the lands for vineyards, as Mr.. Pratt
believed would be the case. choice

Mr.. Atkinson referred to this objec-
ton while discussing the matter, the
gist of his reply being that he did not
believe in playing any favorites, and
if the Portuguese paid for the land and
made good use of it there was no reason
in the world why they should not have
an equal opportunity with everybody
else to improve their conditions of life.

want the lands settled or not?" the

Such is the answer of the Acting

posal to epen the Makiki reservation

opening was first broached in an IN
terview with Land Commissioner Pratt

The Friend of Your Youth.

It's a subject that's dear to the max
ers of verse,
In mellifluous measure they love tC
rehearse
The tender affection, unchanging as
truth,
OF the tie that unites us to friends OF
our youth.
Now. 1 find the friend of my youth oft
a bore,
Whose very existence I've cause to

A rem niscent ruffian of unerrine

Who rakes up the past that / wish

If you are not as young as you'd have
folk believe
He'll expose all your guileless attempts
to deceive;
On the slightest excuse he stands ready
to state
That you both were at college in sew
enty-eight.
When wooing a MAIDEN you hope you
will win
This friend of your youth is quite sure
to butt in.
With irrelevant anecdotes fitted to
show
You heartless Lothario ages ago.

That you did foolish things that today
you regret,
But leaves the impression you're still

You wish to appear a man sober, Sc

To pose as a pillar of church and OF
State;
But vain are your hopes while this
keen scented sleuth
Drags into the light indiscretions OF
youth.
If you show him the door or cut him
it's sure
That the world that knows little OF
what You endure
Will dub you heartless hyena, in
sooth,
A monster who turns down the friend
of his youth.

Maarten Martens represents the
hero of The Greater Glory as being
stirred to a new life by the discov-
cry OF the great Frenchman. One can
fancy that. The youth is shut in by
narrow environment with no mighty
voice among his own people to wake
the deepest parts of his nature. He
falls under the spell of Hugo on
summers day Hours pass and the
young man walks across the dixie
covered field with his spirit uplifted
in mighty exaltation. The world is a
different world. Humanity is one wide
brotherhood.
Liberty is Gods gift to men and no
man has right to deprive his fellows
of that gift.
