Beretania street. One store was
rented in a four-store building, am
here the same kind of work was car
ried ON with small groups of Chinese
people. This move proved to be a
wise one, for the work grew. the at
tendance of the people increased until
it was necessary to rent one store
after another until all OF the four
stores were joined into one mission
hall. After these rooms were OBJ
tanned it was necessary to get some
rooms upstairs and TO establish the
Alackenzies in a home in that place.
Chinese Are Loyal
This work which. was begun in 1908
in what is known as the Beretania
Settlement has been so aDundantly
successful and has been so Loyalty
supported by the Chinese people them
selves that at present the Sunday
school, the church services and the
boys clubs and the girls clubs, make
it hum with activity and glow with
life.
In October, 1915. the Second Chinese
church vas organized and in it all
activities of the settlement found their
center.
These who know Beretania Settle
ment Will unite in making this state
ment. 1t has never been sufficiently
well equipped to handle the crowds
of people who have been led to join
in its various activities. Just now it
seems wise to introduce to the people
of this territory a full grown. power

ideals and vocations the Beretania in
stitute is not exactly settlement; 1t
is really more than that. The work
ers. directly under the Hawaiian
Board, emphasize religion in all their
work and have been wonderfully sue
cessful in maintaining the finer prin-
ciples of Christianity in all activi-
ties there
Over $50 members have been bap-
tized into the church since its begin
ming over a year ago and the Chinese
minister who is now on his vacation
in China has no difficulty in obtain
ing congregation for Wednesday
prayer meeting and Sunday services
his only trouble is to find room for
those who come.
What the settlement needs and
needs badly is new building, big
building, one fitted upstairs for a
church and meeting hall, down stairs
for the vacations and games with ap-
pointments throughout to accommo-
date everyone.
New Building Sadly Needed
The Hawaiian Board owns the lot,
about 90 by 50 feet; the settlement
has the support of at least 500 mi
nese who visit it; the Chinese have
been anxious to learn ever since Ray
mond II. Leach. superintendent OF Tile
Sunday school, started with Is boys
10 years ago, and they deserve more
of an opportunity to advance.
Schenck needs proper home and
meeting place for his big enthusiastic
following; MRS. Mackenzie deserves
better means TO continue her good
work: a two-story. fire-proof structure
would meet all the needs for years to
come and the workers are sitting up
nights thinking of it and in bed they
dream over that new building. When
will it come true ? When will the
hundreds OF young Chinese who are
rapidly becoming model citizens OF
Hawaii be given the opportunity they
deserve up On Beretania street where
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1916-12-23

activities and spaces are so crowded
that they must be held one at time.
As Schenck points out the work
began as mission, then passed
through the settlement stages and is
now really an institutional church
with nothing lacking but the proper
home and building in which to con-
tinue to expand and grow with the
principles of religion and the grace
of God
Work Started in 1905
The work of the settlement traces
back to 1906. In that year Mr.. ana
RS. Elijah Mackenzie returned to
Honolulu and were engaged to carry
on the work and it was then known
as the Liliha Street Center of Chinese
Work.
It had several distinct phases of
activity. In the first place there was
night school for men and boys. a
day school for women and girls. the
Sunday school activities, and last of
all the efforts of the Liliha Gospel
Mission. Not any one of these activi-
ties brought in people to the number
Of more than 20, and some of them
which were small were the the most
promising.
Gradually the ,lackenzies realized
that this work needed to be trans
ferred to another place. and with the
help of Mr. Damon room was Sc
cured on Hotel street in what is now
the Bo Wo Jewelry Store. Here the
Chinese people were gathered for the
various activities OF this small mis-
sion. and from the beginning ,le place
was filled with people who were III
spired by the leadership of the Mac
!, kenZies
Good Work ir Attic
From the fall OF 1907 for one year
the Hotel Street Mission carried on its
work in one narrow room, and the
rough, untamed boys OF the street
were gathered in for Sunday school
and clubs. The Mackenzies found a
loyal helper in Raymond a. Leach.
who used to gather those boys in for
Sunday school. and take them upstairs
TO an unfinished attic room for their
class work
Then il was found possible to move
