Presents Gift To kula

On behalf of the Hawaiian Women's
Club. Miss Rebecca Akana, the presi-
dent, made formal presentation of the
moving picture machine to the patients
at Kula Sanitarium last night. Miss
Akana spoke but a few words, but
was received with big applause. She
was introduced by Mr.. Arlitt who
spoke of her as the Queen Mother of
Kula Sanitarium. She told the pa
tents that they could thank the Ha-
waiian women for their gift and hop
ed they would enjoy it as much as the
Hawaiian women enjoyed giving it to
them. Before the presentation Miss
Akana and a group of friends were
entertained by Miss S%hellshear with
a buffet supper. The hall was crowd
ed with patients TO see the pictures,
the showing OF which was greatly add
ed to by the playing of the Kula pa
tients string orchestra. That the pic
ture machine fills a great need was
shown by the fact that a string of
automobiles was parked outside the
sanitarium of residents from various
homesteads who had attended to
watch the films.

AVS CONFIDENTIAL PAPERS
CANNOT BE SHOWN SENATE

(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE Pres
ident reserved the right to send the
Senate a copy of General Bliss letter
on the Shantung settlement on the
ground that he contended that it con
tanned confidential references from
other governments. The President
wrote Senator Lodge that it was not
practical to comply with the foreign
relations committees request for the
documents used by the American
peace commissioners at Paris and
said the data was so miscellaneous
and enormous in the mass that it
would be impossible to supply it with
out bringing from Paris the whole file
which would include memoranda which
it has been agreed, on the grounds of
public policy, ii would be unwise to
use outside the conference.

Memories Of The
Hawaiian Missions
BY Rev. A. d. Shaw, Phi. D.

By ReN. "A. II. Shaw, Ph. ID.
Whatever may have been the origin
OF the Hawaiians. we find in the ira
ditions. ground for the belief that
they once possessed a simple ritual
and purer ideas of divinity than when
discovered by Cook, only the original
missionaries who arrived here from
Boston, April, 1920. The ideas EN-
bodied in these traditions appear to.
be the fragments of Il faith or teach
ings not unlike those of the Hebrews.
Perhaps like theirs, they came down
to them from primevel ages. because
mankind had become wholly corrupt,
when the Sons of God walked with
the children of men. Gut others and
particularly several customs point to
a later period, when the Israelites had
become a nation under the ceremon
ial law. Ingenious minds may find a
pleasure in tracing the parallel be-
tween customs and traditions of the
Hawaiian race and the ceremonies
and scriptures of the Jews. But il
requires further research and more
proof before we can adopt the conclus-
ion that they sprang from the lost
ten TRIBES.
At the advent OF the First Mission
aries April u, 1920, if a common
Ia made-use of any ]consecrated prop
ferty belonging to a king or chief or
if a man walked in the shade of the
house of a tree with his head be-
smeared with clay, or with a wreath
about it, or violated any of numerous,
other regulations, equally whimsical
and absurd, his life paid the forfeit.
At sea if the canoe of the common
man interrupted the progress OF the
chiefs canoe, the canoe of the
common man was overturned. On
land, if The shadow of an individual
ell upon the king, or if he did not
PROSTATE himself when anything was
carried to or from him, the punish
ment was death.
Ignorance or innocence We're equal
ly unsafe, justice and humanity being
of slight consideration. The humane
character OF the few, could afford but
slight relief from the cruelty Of cap
ricious desires of the many. But two
classes existed, the Oppressol or OPP
pressed-those who labored an those
who reaped. Lands were held in
ief. The great landlords derived
them direct from the king and in turn
subdiyided them among their follow
ers, the slightest failure of duty from
one close to its immodiable superior,
was followed by dispossession.
Not more than one third of the
labOrers's industry ever benefited
them. The other two thirds went in
taxes, rents and eXactions to his CHIEF
ana to the king.
eeneVclence Not Theirs
No spirit of ~benevolence pervanad-
ed their religion. II was a gloomy
era prior to the advent of the mission
airy, Astounding in punishment for the
present life and dark threatenings for
The future. Among the lowest orders
no distinct idea of f~uturity prevailed.
However simple their faith had been
almost all traces of truth We're lost
at the arrival of Missionaries in 1920.
From the perusal OF the stories of
this dark era, as gathered from their
own lips, it would seem as if human
depravity had reached. its height and
that the people were gradually vast
ing away like a mass of corruption.
