ments made by the Advertiser regard

claimed charged the same to the Ko-
rean National Association. This Is
false In every particular; also regard
Ing my case, the Advertiser has shown
itself entirely ignorant of the true
facts or are willing to put only the
distorted and opesided statements be-
fore the public While ali are prone
to make some mistakes at times, It is
not fair to condemn. one from such
one-sided articles as appear In the is
sue Of the advertiser and would ask
the people of Honolulu TO withhold
their conclusions as to these matters
until both sides have been fully pre-
scented and passed upon BY competent
authority. In these articles history
has been repeated BY the matters pub
lished In the morning paper IN that
they seem to- crowd one sdoWn-and-out'
still further down, instead Of reaching
out hand to liftsa human being on to-
q higher level. Through these mis-
leading Statements especially as to-
horse and RIG, that .i0haye appeared
from time to time, have lost the con-
fidence Of my own countfymen. have
thought heretofore that the editor all
ways sought to- besfair and6 impartial
in what was printed IN ittcolumns, yet
the presentation Of my case. editorial
", has been such to make me doubt
the same, one thing leading me to this
conclusion being the ignoring the fact
Of the racial luminosity existing be-
tween the Koreans and the Japanese.
which is such that fair statements
could not be expected fromsa japanese
where Korean is concerned.
Yours truly,
M. 8. KIM.

Ace of Specialists.

There is much Of great Significance
In the report by local experts that,
side by side with the inability Of q
great many men and women to pro-
cure employment, there is the inabil.
ity of employers to get workers to ELL
the places they have open This state
ment reveals clearly that under the
complicated processes Of modern in
sdugtry a mans willingness to work is
far from qualifying him for work
waiting to be done. The person wish
ing to be sure of employment must
specialize in one or more Of the many
classes of work for which there seems
always to be a scarcity of labor. As
emphasized in the report referred to.
the person who relies upon his abilit.
to perform unspecialized tasks will
find himself in constant competition
with the three or four like himself
to quest Of the one job open for them
The very best advice that can be Civ
en- young man or woman today Is
this: Learn to do some one thing
better than most other persons can
do it. Specialize and keep up to
date in your speciality. There is nc
end OF work to be done in the world
and not nearly enough people who
know how to do it.-Phila. Telegraph
