Macdonald Coming.
Six years ago Mr.. c. A Macdonald,
a native of Nova Scotia, and for some
time teacher in the Kamehameha
school for boys in Honolulu, was chosen
principal The post which he accepted
was no sinecure. The attendance had
run down to less than fifty; discipline
had deteriorated and the buildings were
in a ruinous condition.
1t can hardly be imagined that Mr..
Macdonald assumed his hard task with
much hopefulness. But he had an ex-
ceptional assistant in his wife, Mrs
Margaret B. Macdonald, "a woman of
energy and ability equal to his own,
and their heavy responsibilities were
shared. The new buildings were erect
ed under Mr. Macdonald s careful
supervision, with pretty residence for
the principal conveniently near the
school, within its own grounds, taste
fully planted in ornamental shrubs, with
a fine lawn terminating in a terrace.

Manual Training System.

From the first the school, like others
IN the islands, was conducted on the
manual training system, and, as DR..
Alexander states: "The scholars sup
ported themselves by cultivating a tract
OF land granted by the chiefs to the
school, and had to erect their own
schoolhouses and lodgings under the
greatest disadvantages. -
After many years of success and use
fulness under the management of the
Hawaiian Board, the school began to
go down. This was due partly to the
change in Lahaina, the loss of prestige
IN the withdrawal of the seat of gov
eminent to Honolulu, in the death of
wealthy Hawaiians that had patronized
the seminary, and in the multiplication
OF schools, more convenient for local
patronage throughout the islands.
There was lack of money to meet the
running expenses, and to keep the
buildings in repair. The most import
ant of these was a large two-story struc-
ture of stone, which still stands in
comparatively good condition. Finally,
the school was passed over to, the gov
eminent, and since then has taken on
new lease of life. Great changes have
been made in every way, and could Dr.

LAHAlNALUNA SEMINARY

By Mary Fl. Krout.

Lahaina is stored ground. Once the
capital, the favorite residence of kings
and high chiefs, it was an important
point amongst the Congregational mis-
sions that began the work of civilizing
the Hawaiian Islands.
1t was here-or rather two miles
back, upon the mountainside-that the
fathers established one of the first
schools for the education of Hawaiian
youth. 1t was known as the Lahaina-
luna Seminary, and opened in Septem-
Der, 1881, with Rev. Lorrin Andrews
at its head. The time-honored names
of Clark, Alexander and others asso-
ciated with the well being of the coun-
try, are inseparably connected with the
growth of Lahainaluna. DIR. Lyman,
in his delightful "Hawaiian Yester-
days thus described it when he visit
ed the institution in 1916.
"The college was situated upon a
bleak hillside, several hundred feet
above the level of the sea and the view
was magnificent. Below US was the
anchorage and the vine-covered village
of Lahaina; before us the ocean ex-
tended illimitably beyond the horizon;
to the right were the lofty hills of
Lanai and Molokai, bordering the chan
mel through which boisterous winds
blew foam from the surf all tha uav
towards Honolulu; on our left, the deep
bay of Maalaea washed the southern
shore of Haleakala, and opened out up
on the distant sea, where, in fair
weather, the mountains of Hawaii some
times could be seen far away beyond
the low-lying islet of Kahoolawe.' -
DIR. Lyman related an incident of this
visit that is worth quoting. He de-
scribed one of the sons of the Rev.
Mr. Clark as ga vivacious youth, -
with IAN abundant crop Of faxen hair
curling in ringlets all over his head -
This youth, he continues, "took me to
the college laboratory, where l saw
many curious things and was treated
to a moderate shock from a galvanic
battery pile, which was afterwards in
tensified by the paternal hand for my
companion benefit until his wrists
were eonvulsed and he shouted with
pain.
In connection with the seminary was
publishing house, established later,
in which not only text books. but others
now of great value in Hawaiian bibliog-
raphy, were published-amongst them
Dibble's history.

1t is we'll that the American people

sary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln.
The debt the nation owes him can new.
er be paid, but grateful people can
at least give to him every honor with
in their power. That a man with so
humble birth could by force OF char
acter and true worth forge to the front
and take charge of the government
during the great crisis to the republic
of the Civil War, is most remarkable,
and could hardly taken place except in
a free country like ours.
The people of the North felt that
slavery was wrong, that the South had
no right to leave the Union, yet the
volume of argument as piled up by the
southern orators seemed plausible
| and President Buchanan said he found
no power in the constitution to com
pei a state to stay in the Union against
its will. The great reSourceful heart
and brain of Lincoln produced an
argument which overthrew that of the
seeding southerners, he placed the
situation in its true light, he stood for
united country, and gave his life as
a martyr to the cause of the equality
of all men before God and the law
