1.-The installation of cadet officers
has become to be an important part
in the closing exercises Of the Kane
hameha schools, and believe that, as
the years have gone by. being an Off
Ger in the cadet battalion has come
to be more and more looked upon by
the cadets as a high honor. Because
we have considered this installation
of officers a thing of Importance, we
have set aside a night when it may
be held The installation of cadet
officers is an important thing in the
life of the school, for it is that band
of officers that is responsible for the
good discipline of the institution
throughout the school year.
THE officers of the cadet battalion
are divided into two classes Twenty
one of these officers serve in a double
capacity, not only as officers but as
leaders and disciplinarians whose
duty 1t is to keep order and to reflect
better life upon the other cadets by
your own good conduct"
President Horne here asked the re-
naming officers to rise. "On you has
fallen the duty to discipline Kameha-
meha during the coming school year."
he continued, at is not too much to
say that without your cooperation we
should not have had so good year as
the one which we are about to close.
You have been faithful in carrying
out your duties; you have met all
responsibilities and no piece of work
has been left undone. and / believe
that all these things will tend to
make you, one and all, more manly,
and better men,"
Lieutenant Turner, commandant of
cadets at Kamehameha for the past

been accomplished by both the Off
