, to each one what path his or her tai
ents seem to indicate for your life
work; but am sure of this, that you
will not all follow the same path,
Suppose the commercial path Is
chosen; think, for q moment how the
facilities of trade have developed in
the last sixty years. When I first
came to these islands in 1864 there
was no railroad across the American
continent, nor was there line of
steamers across the Pacific. The fine
American clippers were still sailing
around Cape Horn, and In one Of them
l went on to China; still in a sailing
vessel went on to Singapore and
Akyab before found steamer for
Calcutta. In those days French was
largely the language of commerce iri
foreign ports, now Il ID English. There
were no ocean cables, still less wire
less communications. In business Of.
fees typewriters were unknown, and
II you did not order your dinner at
the market on your way to business
In the morning there was no handy
telephone to supply the omission. In
foreign travel there were no Cook
agencies, no convenient travellers
checks. When went to China in
1865 i had to take witt. me two bags
Of silver dollars to pay my way
there were no postal orders, no par,
GELS post. ~a..-.r.-. "a
It was not only in commercial pur-
suits that time and labor were wasted
both in office work and the trans.
mission Of merchandise; one could
go on in every pursuit Of life and find
changes that are labor-saving and
ttme-saving. Il is not alone In ma
terial things that you. new Corners
are the gamers, you, have schools end
libraries that would not have been
accessible in the early part of the
last century, and now there are rather
too many books than too few 70 en-
gage your attention. You must NOT
depend on books for your education
but use your observation and your
reason which your school work should
have developed in you II you have
made the most Of your advantages,
and thus continue your : studies
through life if you really wish to-, be
of use to your fellow men. In nv
belief this Is the best kind of life to
lead either for this world or in pre-:
paration for another. Do not misun.
derstand me, being Of use can only
mean doing good, making your fei.
lows better and happier. II you do
evil to those around you. not only do
they suffer, but it reacts on you in
greater force. 1 welcome you, my
young friends, into a world of work
and a life of usefulness.

In Address at Mckinley High
School Exercises Tells of
Great Strides to Come

TDr. w. T. Brigham, director OF the
Bishop Museum, delivered to the grad
uating class OF Mckinley High School
q scholarly address Of rare interest
and power to challenge attention. OF
historical as well as contemporary
interest. It Il here reproduced In FULL
Your principal. my longtime friend,
has done me the honor to ask me to
address you briefly at this important
landmark In your life journey, and ]
am inclined to call your attention to
certain points Of education that have
been thrust upon me In longer life
than falls 20 the lot OF most men.
Let us begin with this matter OF
graduation. At the first glance It
seems to be the end Of course OF
study more or less difficult, more or
less pleasant. and there Is feeling
that you are through with It all.
remember as boy ] thought that the
graduation ceremonies at the end OF
college course coming after six
years OF preparation for that course,
were strangely called commence
mentp-the beginning. But when ]
myself had passed through that door
I began to appreciate the fact that
these ten years were but preparation
for ones whole mature life; to lay
aside boyhood and put on manhood;
and II, boy or girl. you have done
your full duty In school or college,
you win desire ardently to put the tai
ent thus entrusted to you at work IN
gathering more knowledge Of men and
things. Do not for q moment imagine
that you have little left to learn; the
true object Of your study hitherto is
not to pack your memory full Of facts,
many Of which win be forgotten be-
fore you are Q few years older-it Is
rather to teach you how to learn and
how to think and develop your powers
of observation Is your games and
sports develop your strength and agil-
fly. .E.s Il
Keep Pleasant the Memories
And now q word about the school
DAYS you are leaving: l hope that
You may take with you through life

are gone. Ny own days Of apprentice

surely send a very warm thrill to any
tired little stenographer or a shop girl
to feel that she is doing her bit to-
wards opening the door Of opportunity
to her sex.
Nor have women altogether the
worst of it in the world. Life Is
drear and drab enough to the average
man who tolls from youth TO age with
out ever gaining more than lap or
two on the wolf. II doesn't seem to
him that he has accomplished much
when all that he has done for forty or
fifty years is just to add up columns
Of figures, sell groceries to haggling
housewives, and when all that his hard
work brings him in the end Of a
month is little pile Of receipted bills
for rent, and food and clothes, ami
fuel for his family.
Let US take comfort in the thought
that he is doing his bit. He is provid
ing the foundation on which society
rests. He Is making possible the home
and the child. He Is giving security
and comfort in which the mother may
properly bring up the children as she
can not do il she has to earn their
support herself. His humble work
gives the child the opportunity for
education and development that the
man himself, perhaps, never had, and
SO gives 1t a better chance in the
world.
Most of the men and women who
achieve great things come out Of just
such obscure homes and were the
children Of just such unknown and
heroic fathers--fathers who had
simply done their bit. -.
Perhaps this 10 all that fate gives
any of us-just the chance to do the
duty that IL closest to US. Happy
those who, when the call for them
comes to lie down their last sleep, can
say, Il HAVE DONE MY BIT"
