would seem from the foregoing that
all the races Of the world meet in Hoo
uolulu.
An these children speak a common
language, English. though some of
them only speak it with difficulty.
But as they are brought into contact
with the other children of the mission
end attend the kindergarten, they
rapidly acquire a good knowledge Of
the language. The Kindergarten
meets daily in the mission hall.
The sewing classes in connection
with the mission are part of Mrs.
Riders special work. and it is
work in which she takes a great
pride. for the girls of the district
have proved that they can and will
learn, given the opportunity. And
the opportunity is provided by the
mission. Each Tuesday afternoon the
class meets in the upper room, and
upwards of forty or fifty girls are
taught to make dresses and under
clothing, patch torn garments, and
generally to do useful needlework
An effort was once made by the mis-
IL co ha rrfr
sewing but it was not a great sue
cess, as the girls did not take very
kindly to it and the time spent in
teaching was wanted for other and
more important work Mrs. Rider
fits out quite a host of the children
in the neighborhood with garments
cut out by herself and her class from
old dresses which have been discard
ed by women situated in more favor
ed circumstances.
The mission would be glad to re-
ceive gifts of old clothing which
would be very useful to the poorer
classes, who are often compelled to
purchase better garments. In the
district are many second hand shops
which sell cast-off clothing at low
prices, but when the people have not
sufficient money to provide adequate
food they have none to spare to pur-
chase even the cheapest of clothing.
If any clothes are sent to the mission
the donors can rest assured that they
will be put to the best of use.
The dispensary is entirely free and
many of the families in the neighbor-
hood are daily provided with medi-
cines. aPtients have their wounds
dressed free of chare and the nurse
is continually engaged on some case
or another. In fact, the nurse is sell
dom at liberty being in constant de-
mand, but when she is unavoidably
absent from the mission, attending
ether cases, ETC., either Mr.. or Mrs.
Rider attend urgent calls. This Sec
ton of the mission is one which APP
peals to all the people in the district
in times of sickness or accident, and
they are not slow to avail themselves
of the relief afforded by the medi-
cines and nursing.
The Sunday School has $50 children
on the roll and the average attendance
is 1877. The children, though of so
many nationalities, display creditable
and intelligent interest in the teach
ing of the school.
In the mission hall where the night
ly religious services are held various
services are held by those of the dis

Mr.. Rider is a constant visitor to
Judge Whitneys Juvenile Court and
also to the police court, looking for

The Kakaako Mission.

The mission stands at the corner
of Queen and South streets, with
