made. Fred B. Smith speaking before
the ctudcnts OF Oahu college, and Ray
ond Robins speaking at the Mckin-
ley high school. Dir. Smith took I'D
the question Of education. urging the
students TO make as much as possible
OF their studies OF history. mathemat-
les, etc. Character. he said. lis the
most, essential thing which accom-
panies education. The men who run
the government are not only we'll edu-
Gated but they are men OF high moral
character. There have been some
brutes in history, but ,hese men have
never as yet been set down as being
we'll educated"
A-r. Robins, in his talk before the
students CT the high school, brought
out the fact that the generation in
which we now live is the most inter
esting and the most different of any
that has gone before This is the
time of new strain of individual and
social life, he said, and new laws,
such as the law of cooperation, are
fast coming to light during the pres
ent time" He then went on 10 illus
trate these things from experiences
which he had in the north when 1000
people started for the gold fields, and
only 1850 Of these reached their des-
tlnation. The cause of this, he said,
was because the things on the inside
of man are bigger than the things
on the outside, anu it took nerve and
courage to face the hardships and the
cold. 1t wasin this part of the coun-
try at the time of the gold rush that
the first real laws of cooperation were
learned. 1t took two peoplesto travel
on the trail; one to freak the path
in the snow and the other to drive the
Gogs. 1t took two men I'd run mine,
one to turn the windlass and haul out
the dirt, and the other to go below and
dig, and it was only those with the
greatest amount Of r-efhciency who
withstood the trial"
ae second meeting of the morning
Vas held in Cooke Hall at which time
about thirty ministers, and mission
workers of the city were present Aft.
;er few numbers by the quartet. Mr..
Robins and Mrst Smith both made
short speeches in which those present
were urged to inspire their congrega-
tons with the need OF the campaign
In Honolulu in order that the churches
might be upt on firmer working
basis and some of the social evils
remedied. The ministers were especi.
ally urged by both the speakers to get
IN touch with the men of their congre-
cations who were especially interested
IN some particular pleas of wark, such
as boys work, community extension,
etc. This meeting was considered by
MI Smith to be one Of the most i'm
Eortant of the entire campaign, as it
gives the leaders u chance to get IN
touch with those who are directly con-
Tected with the local campaign"
