MAKING ENGLISH
EASY FOR ALIENS

Arrangements have been made with
c. W. Cousins of the College of Ha
waii whereby he will take charge OF
the class in conversational English to
be instituted at the Japanese Y. NJ. c.
A. beginning May 20. The class will
meet three times a week, Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays at eight
o'clock. The Peter Roberts system
will be used.
The Y, NJ. c. A. officials are work
ing on the suggestion of Ed Towse to
arrange for the instruction of irnmi-
grants in the rudiments Of the Eng
fish language. Efforts are being
made to secure the support of the fed
eral and other authorities to the plan.
Mr.. Towse has further suggested that
If the plan proves successful oompe-
tent teacher be sent to the point
where the immigrants embark
for Honolulu. The teacher would &C
company them on their journey and
would be able to impart a deal of in
struction during the long days at sea
In this connection Elijah Mckenzie
of the Beretania Mission, who haf
been teaching the Chinese elementary
English by the Roberts system say
the results have been highly success
full, and it is possible, if the scheme
for teaching immigrants is carrie
out, that Mckenzie may become inter
ested in taking up the work wit
them.
