PRINCIPAL MERRILL

The Friend for April: The resig-
nation of Mr.. Arthur NJ Merrill as
Principal of Mills School for reasons
Of health and his removal to the main.
land is a distinct loss to the Terri
tory. Ten years ago Mr. Merrill came
to Honolulu and accepted a position
as teacher in Mills Institute at very
critical time in its history. For sew
eral years he most successfully guild
ed it's course when its future was
seriously threatened, and built up its
fortunes with rare ability. He ex-
hibited large executive talent and
put the school upon an excellent ba-
sis as an educational force. The
scope of the institution was broad
ened out in every way, its courses of
study systematized and enlarged and
its constituency widened t. include
Japanese and Koreans. A fine discip-
Inarian and able to WELD a deep
( personal Christian influence, his con-
duct of the school as a character
making plant was notable. Until its
| incorporation into the Mid-Pacifc In.
! stitute the cramred quarters and
| distracting surroundings entailcd q
heavy responsibility that was very
wearing to health. Yet Mr. Merrill
carried his burdens lightly and refus
ca to spare himself in the least. HI
added to his duties as Principal the
SUPPLEMENTARY of the Fort Stree
| Chinese Sunday School which he
made a model Of effectiveness. Upor
the removal Of Mills to it's presen
location and its full incorporation in
to the Mid-Pacifc Institute large
burdens and new problems were facet
with courage and unstinted devotion
The consequence was a heavy drain
upon physical resources and towards
the close of 1911 it became apparen
to him that his health neCessitated
change of scene. The directors o
the Institute urged a vacation and tn
postponement of final decision 70
three months. A trip to California
revealed both the needed climate an
the reckoning future work, hence tn
resignation of March, which the 4
rectors accepted with Regret Mr.. an
Mrs, Merrill and their quartet G
splendid boys viii carry with Their
the hearty aloha of the Islands, wher
they have been such a force for goot
The work wrought here has been a
! abiding one and its fruits viii cor
tinue to ripen throughout the comm
years.

CHINA CONTINGENT

Manila Cablenews-American The
Chinese expedition will be increased
to the full strength of 1900 men au-
tlorized by the War Department when
263 additional men from the Fifteenth
Infantry, now stationed at Fort Nc,
Kinley, join the two battalions of that
regiment now in China. The new de-
tachment will leave on the transport
Sherman on March Is, and will be
met at Nagasaki by the Warren, now
on her way to Tallu with the third
battalion of the Fifteenth, which will
transport the additional troops to
their destination.
Major James Bayliss, of the Ninth
Infantry, has been detached temper
arily from that regiment and ordered
to report to the commanding officer
at Fort Mckinley for temporary duty
with the Fifteenth, for the purpose Of
putting the additional detachment of
that regiment in shape for duty m
China, and to conduct them to Taku.
Upon arrival at Taku, Major Bayliss
will report to Lieutenant Colonel Root
for duty with the expedition.
No further disquieting rumors have
come from China during the past few
days, and although the military au.
thoritles are not apprehensive of Sc
rious trouble, they are running no
risk Of being caught unprepared for
any emergency,
The men necessary to complete the
numerical strength in excess of
those of the Fifteenth now at McKin
ley, are drawn from the Nineteenth
Infantry. No announcement has yet
been made of the officers to accom-
pany the detachment, but it Is
thought that they also will be drawn
from the Nineteenth Infantry
The company of Marines which has
been ordered to China will leave or
the flagship Saratoga on March 20
sailing direct to Taku, where they will
disembarlI for station in Tientsin and
Pekin. 1t was reported in Manila
yesterday that part of the force or
the Rainbow had been landed, but
this lacks confirmation.
