seldom cuts one loose with all his
might unless he happens to bes in q

who is weak on the fast ones. He
throws a lot of fast balls with. q

of the old armor-piercing type that

At one time he had to depend al
most entirely on the velocity of his

A GREAT ADVANCE.

Some of the greatest advances of civilization are made silently. They escape the flourish of trumpets, while other much less important advances are accompanied by incessant drum beating and pyrotechnics. The dim' mutton of the death rate is one O! the signal triumphs of modern en- lightenment. It is also one of the most potent checks on economic waste. The average age of each gen. eration is being materially length ened, and that result is chiefly being reached by stopping the excessive loss of infant life, Yet few persons realize the extent of the benefcent progress thus made, or what it has means in the way of increasing the sum total of human happiness and efficiency.

OLDEST UNIVERSITIES.

The oldest universities on the con- tinent of Europe are those of Bo- logna, Paris and Salamanca. In Eng land Oxford and Cambridge are the most ancient. Many of the earlier universities were the outgrowth of the intellectual movement known as "Scholacticism." Great scholastics like Abelard and others would draw about them crowds of young men to listen to their lectures, and the lec- lures were followed by the perma- nent institution known as the uni- versity. In such way Abelard be- came the practical founder of the University of Paris.

SCHOOL NOTES

Rev. Steen visited our Chapel exercises Wednesday morning and gave us pointed talk on doubting Thomas. Thomas would have behind as other disciples did, if he had been present. Application: absent pupils miss something of every recitation. They come back doubting Thomases.
 One more Saturday of school after today, then our week will be made up.
 The vacant room up stairs has been cleaned out and a library case moved in. The room will be decorated and used as a school museum and exhibition room. Some of the best magazines are being put in the museum library for the boys and girls. If you have some good literature that you could spare, it would be of service to us. Grammar School pupils want something new and up-to-date. Send some magazines.
 A Students Volunteer Debating Club was organized yesterday after school. Thirty -sevenpupils from the graduating classare go ing into it with vim. We will light the Museum room and use it for the Club. This speaks well for Eth grade pupils. Watch us; come to hear us.
 Let alittle sun shine in.
 Our motto is: Work" "-even on Saturday.

KAMAHALUA-The big squid are

THE CHINESE FAMINE.

Editor Star am glad to see
that something is being done for the
starving millions of China, but there
is hardly as much interest taken in
this subject as one would expect,
One would naturally expect to see
all the nationalities Of these Islands
contributing most literally, and to see
this fund grow with leaps and
bounds. But it must be that the ma
jority of the people do not think, do
not realize what it really means to be
actually starving. Indeed, it is too
dreadful to contemplate, or to even
think of.
| think that if all the newspapers
of this Territory including the Hawai-
ian, Portuguese, Chinese and Japan
csc were to start relief funds SINH
lar to the Advertisers much good
would be done.
This would call the attention of
thousands of people to this subject
