are many others that | could mention,
hut these are sufficient to prove what
kind of an education they received
from this institution. You will find
them an industrious lot of people.
They are engaged in all sorts of occu-
pations and think you will easily find
that the result Of their training here
is considered by the people to be tip
top.
think we who are here today ought
10 be proud of such an institution. Ka-
today stands for the best
training they have in the U. S. and in
foreign countries. There were very
lew schools of this sort in America
and other countries twenty years ago.
That is, schools that have three de-
partments OF study, academic, shop
work and agriculture Recently such
schools as this have sprung Zip very
rapidly in America and other countries
and have shown good profitable re-
suits. A glance at our benefactress
will shows that she conceived the idea
Of a person who is living today, at the
Time she made her will. Her ideas
were those of twenty or fifty years in
the future.
The hope OF Hawaii is in these
schools. Let us keep in mind the les
son that the twenty years of Kane
hameha has offered and let us also re-
member what noble character that
woman had to produce such an insti-
tuition as this to educate her people.
