In tearing down the archway of the

This archway was originally one of
three that marked the way into the
beautiful grove that surrounded the
Athenaeum when that institution was
at the zenith of its power and fame.

Very soon the old Athenaeum build

The Anti-SaIoon League Convention.
l went from Honolulu especially to
attend the national convention Of the
Anti-Saloon League at Atlantic City.
That was probably the most notable
gathering of reform workers in the
history of the United States. Ger
.tafnly there were never so many MEN
of national reputation together upon
one platform at one time. They were
statesmen and business men who are
holding the thought and business pro-
gram of the nation.
Ten years ago it was my privilege
to be very intimately connected with
the Anti-Saloon movement in the
state of Colorado and to be rather
familiar with the nationwide move
ment of that period The commonest
argument to be heard on an Anti
Saloon platform at that time was that
if the business man was to be inter

must not be approached from the
moral standpoint, but from that of
business policy-that it was necessary

Strong Support for Mr.. Wilson.
The second thing that impressed me
was the almost universal approval

In his attitude toward the present
European struggle. doubt If ever 2
president of the United States faced
a more serious crisis, unless perhaps
Ii was Lincoln, than that faced by
President Wilson, and it seems to me
he has proved himself a remarkable
statesman to be able to steer the ma
ton through such troublous times.
But the most significant impression
is the impression of the SOLDERING OF
the American people. In spite of his
craftsmanship, doubt very seriously
if President Wilson could have pre-
vented the American nation from be,

struggle If he had been compelled to

country. An expert in some phase OF
agriculture now addresses each meet

everywhere are adopting methods
which will improve agriculture in their
communities.
All these steps indicate that agri-
culture has developed a new import

nized that farming must be made
