He, began by telling how in 1919, the
landing Of boat with americans in,
Hawaii was the first step In the. long
line of events which mas finally

DR.. Fry said: 1.-THE next 10 or is

tunity TOR the propagation of Christian
faith In the Hawaiian Islands. With.
in that time many thousands OF Ha.
waiian-born AsiaIics will have reached
their majority and exercise the full
rights o. American citizenship. If we
allow these AsIatic-AEericans to drift
into irreligious hying, the social and
moral dangers OF the islands will be
greatly increased.

NORTHERN POLES
DON'T LIKE HATS

ATLANTA. Ca, Fen. 1.-Notherners
in Atlanta say that the universal habit
here and throughout the South Of tax,
ing of ones hat il an elevator when
there are ladies in the car. is not
.chlvalrous and polite. but merely in
.co1Eruous and provincial
It is such a usual custom here and
IL other Southern cities that it is
scarcely noticed. but people from the
North say il appeas to them in the
light Of STANCE custom which they
cannot understand.
~You would never think Of taens
of your hat in a street car because
there are ladies in the same car. and
I see no difference between a railroad
train or street car and an elevator.
except that where I come from the
street cars are, if anything. even At
lie more crowded than the elevators.
Furthermore. even in the. even in
tbs South It neve occurs to man TO
take of his hat when he enters an
Office where there happens 70 be a lady
stenographer. or a store where there
is a lady clerk. So please tell me
Why it is that you pick the elevator as
the only public place in which yol
remove your hats in the presence of
ladies You do not know? II there ism :
some reason, it is mighty foolish. for
elevators are usually crowded. a nd

.ENGRAVERS STRIKE
IN ATLANTA NOW

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. THE en-
grayers, that IS the men VINO make the
cut illustrations. for the three At
lanta daily newspapers. have COM
pleted plans 10 go on strike today. The
cause Of the strike is a disagreement,
II is said, over the signing of new
I contracts with the papers. and the
men. it is said. are simply planning to
walk ont and peacefully quit until the
differences can be adjusted.
Its union matter, but there has
been no intimation that the strike will
extend any further than the engrav-
/. ing ooms, nor is il expected that it
viii DO so.
The immediate result Of the situa-
ton is that the Atlanta dailies from
now through Sunday, at least, will
have 10 go TO press without any new
local illustrations. They will still be
able however, 10 make casts from
mats. and, Of course, TO use any cuts
which they have already have, so that
he gneeral appearance Of the papers
will probably present little difference.
except that the local cartoons will not
be seen.
