I come from homes where they cannot
learn these things. The public school
of Hawaii must very often take the
place OF the home in child training,
and supply what is lacking there. II
must fit the pupils for future life in
the world, and for the work of setting
up of real American homes of their
own. The school city plan has proved
of much help in this real training OF
the students, and in fitting them for
future life work. 1t is a help to the
teacher and help to the pupil.
RESULTS TO HAWAII.
The public schools of Hawaii are do
ing noble and excellent work, a work
that is well fitted to the cosmopolitan
character of the children of the Is
lands. The faithful school teachers
who are doing this splendid work in
the school rooms, all over the islands,
should have the hearty support of ey-
cry good citizen. Their work is the
great Americanizing force which can
make Hawaii the pride of America.
Although but three per cent. of Amer
leans are found in these fifty schools,
they can compare favorably with the
public schools of the mainland. Their
songs, their recitations, their work,
their play, their conduct, is something
to rejoice in. The children of many
races come to these schools, ana be-
gin to feel that they are young Amer
leans. Very often an answer to the
question. What song shall we sing.
children?" the answer is given at
once, ''Sing My County 'Tis of Thee"
In a third grade class the other day
the pupils gave as fine a collection of
patriotic quotations as you could find
in mostly any school. And these chill
dren were mostly Chinese and Hawai-
ians and Portuguese. You do not find
a race question in Hawaiis public
schools All races meet happily to-
gether. You will see a little Chinese
girl. Hawaiian girl and Korean girl
walking arm in arm, the best of
friends. The boys and girls of all these
nations meet in most friendly inter-
course on the school playground. AS
long as Hawaii keeps up her fine public
school system there is no fear of ORR
entaIizing the Islands. If all these chill
dren from six to sixteen years of age
can be kept in our schools, they will
be truly Americanized. The American
life and ideals impressed upon their
minds during these early years can
not be forgotten.
The public schools are doing a great
work for Hawaii. They should have
increased support and accomn11da-
tons. And 1t is to the credit of Ha-
wall that her schools may not Only
help in the better life of her own peo-
pie, but may also through some of her
students aid in development ami adj
vancement of some of the great ma
tons of the Far East.
