Coming: Lihue Religious
Educational Campaign

cational Campaign for the district
of Lihue is already being given a
start in the community. The first
factor in operation is the census
survey of the field. This is being
conducted by the committees of the
different churches and nationalities
in Lihue. Homes are visited and
the hearty cooperation Of the differ
ent families and church members
in the district is being solicited
Many have rallied to give the cam
paign their undivided support.
Immediately after the convention
of the Evangelical Association of
Kauai which will take place from
Oct. II 19, and, beginning on
Oct. 21, the initial service of the
campaign will take place at the
Lihue Social Hall. This will be
begun with musical activities. Mr..
Geo Andrus, the former musical
instructor of the Kamehameha
Schools, will conduct the congrega-
tional singing. Being an expert
along this line, the singing will be
made most interesting to those who
come. The campaign. chorus will
furnish special music of mixed
voices, while the male quintet from
Honolulu, under the leadership of
Mr.. Timoteo, will render special
pieces.
The quintet will be of special in
terest to this community not only
because of the quality OF music and
voice which it is able to produce,
but because of the devoted interest
which this body Of young men has
in the moral and spiritual uplift Of
the young people.
