teachings of Christ were these two
inseparable truths-There is but one
God, all are the sons of God, and the
PRONUNCIATION of these two truths
changed the face of the world and en-
larged the moral circle to the confines
of the inhabited globe.

1.-The Americanization of Hawaii
has begun. It is going to be carried
forward from top to bottom, until
Hawaii becomes as proudly American
as Australia is grandly Australian.
1.-THE Americans in Hawaii, high
and low, want their fellow citizens to
possess the land; they welcome the
son of the Chinaman or Japanese who,
born in Hawaii and educated in her
schools, is an American; they are look
ing forward to an advancing hour
when Americans can come into their
own and the lands of Hawaii will be
titled by the sons of Americans and
the business of the islands conducted
by true and loyal sons of the Great
Republic.

POOR MUST PAY GENT
MORE FOR BEEF WHILE

Hawaii Herald: Beef has gone up
a cent a pound. On March I, say the
consumers, and they ought to know,
the one cent raise went into effect
The beef is just as good but no bet
ter than it was before, and the only
excuse that seems to be availabl,
for the raise is that the Big Islanc
had only half an inch of rain dur
January.
Whatever the cause beef is one
cent higher, wholesale, than it was
before the first day of March. This
is a material raise when it is consid
cred that retailers must make their
difference; and it is a hardship CT
the poor especially those who have
meat but seldom, and then as nee
essity-a necessary luxury, if you
! like.
Whether or not there is such a
thing as a beef trust in these Ha
waiian Islands is a question that has
never seriously been taken up by tn
authorities, in any event there is {
deep sympathy existing between those
who have beef interests at heart (r
meaning the consumer)

Sermon By Pastor Smith
At Hands Around Service

The Rev. Robert E. Smith held a
Hands ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS service at
the First NJ E. Church yesterday
morning, and Evangelist Fred Butler
sang solos for the members of the get
together" organization.
The text selected was, "He hath
made of ono blood all nations of men
to dwell on all the face of the earth"
The pastor stated that he had in
vited the Hands-Around-the-P Pacific
Club to observe the anniversary OF its
birth becauce it was attempting to
carry ont the spirit of the text, and
that it should in this have the assist
ance of every church and all Christian
people.
"The Observation-Disclosures Club
is composed of men of every race and
every creed in every part of the Pa
cific and they are endeavoring to know
each other better and bring about an
era of united cooperation for the good
of all.
Some of us are tempted to believe
that the Anglo-Saxon blood is little
better than any other, but a glance
backward brings the blush of shame
to our face Today the Anglo-SaXon
is dynamiting innocent workingmen'
shooting down inoffensive negroes and
in many ways setting the other races
an example they should not follow.
America returned to China ten million
dollars indemnity and China appro-
priatod it for the expenses of Chinese
students in American universities
This was the right sort of hands
across the sea reciprocity. We should
not be conceited, the scientists con
cede the unity of the race. From
the researches of the psychologist, the
anatomist, the philologist and the psy
chologist we obtain the same testi
mony as to the specific unity of ouI
race.
THE new movement demonstrates
the advance of men toward better
understanding of each other and there
fore better friendship. 1t is but lately
that Helen Hunt Jackson wrote
"a Century of Dishonor," which treat
ed of the manner in which We robbed
the Indian of his rights. A century
ago there were but three men in the
British parliament who did not be
lieve in negro slavery. Today we are
almost ready to admit the equality
of all, a universal democracy founded
on the Fatherhood of God and the
brotherhood of man. Joseph Mazzini
the hero and patriot of Italy, wrote

Pacific land throw his lot and loyalty
in with the land that betters his con
dition. That is all that Hawaii or
any other country asks of those who
enter to make their living. America
is spending millions for the fortifca-
ton of Hawaii, and every man in Ha-
waii should work with Hawaii and for
Hawaii as an American citizen, and
the people should work with him as a
fellow citizen.
Let every man of every nation
work in the land in which he liIes
for that land and for the other lands
that he knows and loves. In this way
the hands-aTound movement will Gre
ate a universal brotherhood and the
world shall truly know that He hath
made of one blood all nations of men
to dwell on all the face of the earth. "
