Eighteen out of the twenty two
Christian Endeavor and Epworth
League societies of the city We're rep
resented at the Christian Endeavor
rally last night at the Kawaiahao
Church, which was comfortably filled
with the members and their friends.
The interest being taken by the
young people of Honolulu in the tenn
perance cause was demonstrated by
the earnestness with which the repre-
sentatives of the different societies
spoke on the work, nearly every speak
er devoting all his and her attention
to this phase of Christianity. In addi-
ton to these addresses many of the
societies sang a verse of hymn when
responding to their names on the roll
call.
The following organizations were
represented: Christian Church, Cen
trail Union Church, Methodist Church,
Portuguese C. E.. Chinese C. E., Ma
kiki Japanese, Kalihi C. E., Kameha-
meha c. E., Kawaiahao and four
kapili G. E., Christian Juniors, Japa-
nese Juniors and Kakaako c. E. In
point of attendance the japanese
Juniors had one hundred per cent. and
were presented with the Willing
Workers banner, which will be theirs
for the year.
A number Of excellent musical Sc
lections were rendered, the singing of
the Kakaako Glee Club and the Kau-
makapi1f Society being especially pleas
ing. A dialogue by a number of little
japanese temperance boys, who related
in very good English what choice of
trade they had made, was another en-
joyable number.
Senator Dickey, in a closing address,
read the interview with Acting Gov
ernor Atkinson appearing in the Adj
vertiser regarding the effect of the
present liquor law and urged all the
voters in the Endeavorers to support
those candidates in the primaries who
would vote for local option. This was
the only way to handle the liquor ques-
ton in Hawaii.
