Is the Kakana tongue to become exc

Hawaiians are asking themselves, and

swer- The children go to the Amerr
can schools and are taught in English.
1t has become the language of the
childhood of Hawaii, and they are rap
idly forgetting the language Of their
fathers, which they first learned to
speak.
One old Hawaiian bewailed the fact
that his grandson, aged fifteen years,
who visited an elderly uncle on an
other island, was unable to talk with
the latter, because he knew only his
native tongue and the child had for
gotten it and could speak only in Eng
IiSh.
The Japanese and Chinese have
schools where they teach their progeny
their native tongues, but the nation OF
Hawaiians has no government to
maintain such schools, and the United
States has not established any nor pro-
vided any course in the native Ian
guage in the American schools
