GILBERT ISLANDS
MISSION WORK
IS TRANSFERRED
Activities Begun BY Hiram
Bingham II. Taken Over BY
London Mission Society

Honolulans engaged in mission acti'
yities will be interested in reports
reaching here that the Congregation
aIist missionary work started in the
Gilbert Islands by Hiram Bingham H.
whose father came TO Hawaii as a
missionary in 1920, and whose son is
now a major in the national army in
charge of aeronautic stations, has
been transferred TO the London Mis-
sionary Society.
Commenting on the transfer, the
August number of the Missionary
Herald says:
The Gilbert Islands hold a warm
place in the affection Of all Congrega-
tionalists, American and European,
Hiram Bingham is a name to coniure
with when speaking of the Pacific ISL
and Missions, and the Morning Stars
have successfully sailed into the
imagination and confidence Of thou
sands of Sunday school scholars, chill
dren and adults. II is well known to
many of our readers that the Amert
can Boards missions in the Gilberts
comprised the islands north Of the
equator, while the London Missionary
Society occupied those south Of that
line.
''Thus, two Congregational mission.
airy boards, one English and the other
American, we're carrying on two sepa
rate missions for a single group OF
islands with a total population of not
more than $1,000 people. The cost
OF transportation, of workers and sup
plies, was large, as the story OF the
Morning Stars viii show. The London
Missionary Society has a large ship,
the John williams, that plies among
all the islands occupied by them in the
South Seas, including their portion OF
the Gilbert Group. ~..--s# =.
After much careful investigation
and consideration, II has been made
clear that either board could conduct
the work Of the entire group more
economically and with FAR greater
efficiency than two boards can do t.
Because the Islands are under the
British flag, and since the London Mis-
sicnary Society has an experienced
and most efficient missionary In Mr.
Toward, and vessel capable OF car
ing for all transportation needs, the
prudential committee some time ago
offered to transfer. o. the London
Missionary Society all of It's right and
title 70 its missionary holdings In the
islands, and TO pay the society annu.
ally for five years q sum approximat-
ing what the maintenance Of the work
has cost the board each year for the
last five years. II that society would
take upon itself all responsibility for
all Of the missionary work of the en-
tire group. After a-deputation con-
sisting OF Secretary Lenwood, Rev. A.
]. viner had visited the islands and
made their report. TIE London Mis-
sionary Society decided to accept the
offer Of the prudential committee, and
on July I of this year assumed all
the responsibility hitherto carried by
the American Board for missionary
work in the Gilbert Islands"

CAPT WHEATLEG Il CLEARED
OF NEGLECT OF DUTY CHARGES

The charges of neglect OF duty
and disObedience Of orders against
Captain Joseph Wheatley, command
ing officer of the Tenth Precinct,
were dismissed at the trial of the
police captain before Superintend-
ent Mooney Friday morning.
Captain Wheatley was suspended
from the force following the raid
on the lottery shop operated at 635
South Salcedo street on October II,
which raid was conducted by Super
intendent Mooney. The house is in
the Tenth Precinct and Wheatley
was charged with failing to raid it.
At the trial Friday morning, Cap
tain Wheatley gave a very good eX-
PLANTATION of the case and it APP
peared that he had arrested a per-
son from the same house only three
days before on the charge of oper'
ating a lottery shop.
Superintendent Mooney in dismis-
sing the charges and reinstating
Captain Wheatley, with full exoner-
alton. took into consideration the
extent of territory embraced within
the Tenth Precinct and also the fact
that for the nineteen and a half
years of service on the police force
Wheatley had never been cited for
infraction of rules or neglect OF
duty.

RAISED okRA THIS YEAR.

People with small gardens and
acreage in the immediate vicinity OF
Algiers can make a fine investment
out of their little plots of grounds. by
raising okra during the coming year.
The Louisiana Canning Co., which
has a plant on our side Of the river,
will be prepared this spring to pur-
chase all the okra that is brought to
their place, at market prices.
The large demand for okra is not
temporary. for the plant is estab-
lished as a general necessity, and so
any acreage hitherto planted could be
trebled without the slightest danger
of the market fluctuating or being
overstocked.
It is to this section that the world
now looks for it's chief supply, and
our people should rise to the situa.
ton. Those who have planted little
patches of ckra in their gardens
would now do well to plant large
fields of it, and those who have
grown it in large fields should now
plant larger fields.

A movement is on foot here now
with the Pythians to convert the
Pythian Hall into a Pythian Home
for the benefit of the members and
their families. Should this move
ment go through as. it is outlined it
will mean one of the biggest things
for the Pythian order on this side of
the river. At the meeting Friday
night many enthusiastic addresses
were made regarding the future of
the order in Algiers, and it goes
without saying that with the persist
ent effort of those who have the mat
ter in charge Pythianism will be
heard from in the near future.
After the meeting a little lunch
