Two Large Mormon Temples Now
!, Are Rapidly Nearing Completion

The temple in the Hawaiian Islands
will follow out the same general plan
Situated right in the midst of the
church plantation. surrounded by ali
sorts OF senli.tTopical vegetation. II
will overlook not only the neighbor.
ing country but Also the nearby ocean.
II will be smaller than the Canadian
building, measuring only IS feet
square. Crushed lava rock is being
used for the reinforced concrete in its
construction, and Japanese oak and
Hawaiian koa will be used for interior
finishing. The latter is hard wood
resembling finely grained mahogany.
A number of handsome mural paint
ings will decorate the wall, all the
rooms being carried out in a har.
mCnious color scheme. The many
windows Of the building will reach
from floor to ceiling to allow the maxi
mum of sunlight. and fresh air, fea
ture planned especially for the semi
tropical climate The front of the
temple will form a terrace TO be used
for a recorders office and auxiliary
rooms, the top also forming a ter
raced garden where will be found all
varieties OF tropical plants. The archi.
tects expect the building to be com
pleted next May or June, when it is
expected that President Smith win
make the voyage to the islands to be
present at the dedicatory exercises.
More than $4,000 Latter-Day Saints
in the Tahitian, Hawaiian, New Zea-
land, Samoan and Tongan islands in
the Pacific are interested in the con.
struction of the building. The Cana
dian temple will also not only be
used for church ordinances by the
5000 church members IN Alberta and
Taylor states, but by the members of
the many conferences and missions
in the northern districts of the United
States.
During the past year improvements
have been made in the arrangement
of the interior of the Logan temple,
the building being entirely renovated

HOPE IN LIFE

lions, how few mel are successful?
How few men out of million ever
vent the tool, paint the picture or
found the business about which they
dream. 1t may be true that every
Shakespeare that grew UP has been
heard of, but if SO, how limited is
genius. The libraries hold occasional
lyrics and odes, whose authors are
unknown, songs that are generally at
tributed to occasional men of genius.
It is as il new vine was found in
the wilderness upon which hung one
or two clusters OF unwonted size and
sweetness-a vine that was struck
down by the wheel of pioneer, or the
hoof of the horseman. Millions live,
struggle, bleed and fall, having achiev-
ed only a bare defense against hun
ger and cold. And yet under differ

achieved name and place, and stood
on thrones of power. ....-..
The human race is like unto this
planet of ours. The earth, wrapped
in snow. without leaf or flower, jour-
neys oil, into spring. and the earth
bears forward myriads of sleeping
seeds and ungrown roots, that midst

summer will grow and bloom and find
themselves Not otherwise is it with
the human race. When one thinks Of
the poor in the tenements, the little
children in the factories, ones eyes
turn to fountains of tears.
Is it enough to say of men that they
were born. that they ate and drank,
and struggled and cursed, and prayed
and sinned and repented, and bled and
died? Will nature give a rude chry-
santhemum bulb second summer in
which the root may bloom. while God

Religious Activities at Mills

The third Sunday at the Kauluwela
mission.
The fourth Sunday at the Kakaako
mission.
Five other senior boys are teaching
Sunday school classes, and all of the
seniors are studying and writing
papers on social problems, taking as
their topics the practical problems Of
our church, mission and religious
life In and around Honolulu.
Mills school is furnishing speaker
eyesy Sunday morning for the Fill
pino mission on King street. These
speakers write out their talks in Eng.
lish and go over them carefully with
some member Of the family. These
they afterwards translate into Fill
nino and then they are delivered in
the Filipino dialect.
Leaders are furnished to assist in
the singing at the Korean mission
every Sunday afternoon.
One boy each week from Mills
school superintends the playground on
Wednesday afternoons at the Manoa
Valley school.
[ The students have given of their
time and thought and ability in many
other ways in the community, music
has been furnished by them at the

Our Christian Endeavor Society is
planning to be the host at the next
Christian Endeavor convention. II Is
hoped at that time not only to bring
to Mills school delegates from the
ether societies, but also to endeavor
to show these delegates what model
convention should be.
While 1t is not possible for our boys
to spread their interest too far, at
the same time through the voluntary
giving of their time to these helpful
enterprises, we believe that they are
receiving training which will help
them to become useful members of
the community after they are through
with their Mills school life.

With the breaking OF ground last
January at Laie on the island OF oahtz
of the Hawaiian group, construction
OF the sixth Mormon" temple TO be
built since the advent OF the pioneers
in Utah was begun, says the Deseret
Evening News. These six structures
are the 81. George temple, completed
In 1871; the Logan temple, completed
in 1884; the Manti temple. completed
IN 1888; the Salt Lake temple, com
pleted in 1893; the Canadian temple
at Cardston, begun in 1913, and the
Hawaiian temple. The last two struc-
lures are the first OF their kind TO be
built outside Utah, the one in the
severe climate OF the Canadian Rock
les and the other in the senitropic
islands OF the Pacific. Roth of these
temples now In the course of con-
struction are built along the same
general plan with a large baptistry or
central feature surrounded by the four
ordinance rooms and surmounted by
fifth. Pope G. Burton are the archi-
tects., ~
The temple in the northern coun.
try is built OF white granite Quarried
H. British Columbia on the shores OF
Kooteney Lake, one Of the most beau
tiful bodies OF water On the North
American continent. II stands on a
slight eminence overlooking the coun-
try, the effect OF height being empha-
sized by the architectural terrace on
which the building rests. This ter
race covers a space about 165 feet
square, the building itself measuring
100 feet square. Entrance steps lead
TO court which will be laid out as
formal garden separating the building
somewhat from the noise of the ada
cent street. The interior will be fin
ished, according to the architects, i'm
hard wood with mural decorations
and harmonious furnishings. When
completed, which wifi probably not
be before the year 1918, the structure
will be one OF the handsomest in the
