Hawaii, own and operate their own
sugar mill and are in many ways
model community.
Just why this community expert
ment has been so successful Is ex-
planned in n few sentences. First, the
settlers were given the necessary sense
of proprietorship by being allotted
each a small piece of ground for which
a normal rental was charged and on
which the tenant could produce the
necessities of life, Second, community
life of all sorts, particularly musical
was given every encouragement anl
received a ready response from the
Hawaiians. Third, non-religious
schools were established, teaching
beside ordinary school subjects the
virtues of industry and good citizen
ship. And last but in many ways
most important work was furnished
for any man who wanted to work,
principally on such community enter
prises as new roads and buildings.
Working along these lines. with able
leaders, the Hawaiians have been
found TO respond readily and the sue
cess Of this enterprise encourages
those who have in charge the larger
work of rehabilitating the entire
Hawaiian race to believe that their
work intelllgently conducted will be Il
success and will restore TO useful and
active citizenship one of the finest
races which has thus far come under
American rule.

PLANS MADE To PLACE
NATIVES ON ISLAND

HONOLULU, T. H., Dec. al. n.
S)-The rehabilitation OF the Hawai-
ian race, which in the last century and
a quarter, or since the advent of the
white man, has dwndled from n
sturdy quarter of million to $4,000
souls, is u problem which has agitated
the entire country during tho past few
years. This agitation eliminated in
the passage by the present congress
earlier this year Of the Hawaiian
Homes Act, under which II is planned
gradually to rehabilitate the Hawaiian
race by putting its people back on the
land, The first experiment under the
new act will be tried on the island OF
Molokai, starting probably early in
1922, and until the experiment has
been In operation for several years It's
ultimate success or failure will be a
moot question.
In view of these facts It Is interest
ing to note that rehabilitation on n
somewhat smaller scale has been in
successful operation under the Nor
mon missionaries in Hawaii for the
past twenty six years, and that it has
been previously tried out under that
same church in Utah, where the
Hawaiians had shown themselves to
be well adapted to agricultural pur-
suite

The grandmother who had brought
up seven children to vigorous, happy
and well-poised maturity dropped in
to see her young daughter-in-law She
was greeted by the sound of sobs and
howls from behind the closed door.
The young mother explained, her face
set hard Else has been naughty.
She is being punished
The grandmother sank into chair,
praying for wisdom. Il never pun
ished one of mine in any such way in
all my life, she advanced mildly. and
they never disobeyed me, either"
"why, Mother Burton! cried the
young mother incredulously That's
/ just impossible. What did you do
when they didn't mind, when they
acted as Elsie did just now? She was
so naughty. You see that lovely set
of Stevenson? / told her three sep
arate times not to touch it. but she
persisted in handling the backs of the
books with her sticky little fingers.
what else could anybody do but pun
ism her?'
well" said the grandmother, Lets
consider this case: I always tried to
put myself in the ehild's place and
tried to imagine why it was they
wanted to do what seemed naughty.
what there was in it that attracted
them. Let's look at that Stevenson
set. Yes, isn't it a beatty, all red leath-
er and gold lettering? Why, l be-
lieye it's the bright coloring that fas-
cinated Elssie. There's nothing wick
ed in liking pretty, bright things.
Why, if that had happened to me, |
believe Id have tried giving her some
thing bright and shiny that she could
play WITH
NO, you don't understand Elsie"
said the young mother, that wouldn't
work with her. It's stubborness. You
ought to have seen how angry she
looked"
"Well, perhaps you got her mad
up" suggested the grandmother, gent
ly.
The young mother gave skeptical,
impatient gesture, You can try it,
and see for yourself
The grandmother went quickly into
the kitchen while tho mother was un-
locking the closet door. and by the
/ time the sobbing. excited child had
come out, she was back with an egg
beater and a bowl Of soapy water.
Elsie looked blackly at her mother
and marched straight toward'the for
hidden books. You see," breathed
her mother tr.umphantly.
Elsie" called the grandmother
brightly, "just see here what I've got.
Mother says we may play with it, you
and I. See, when you whirl the egg
beater around, how it makes the water
all froth up. It's as good as beating
eggs"
The egg-beater's shiny blades shone
clearly as they whisked about through
the glistening, foaming suds. Elsie
was too little to contain more than one
idea at a time especially when one Of
the ideas was such a beautiful one.
She ran to the bowl and began to try
to turn the beater.
At first Grannie had to hold the
bowl steady, but in moment the deft
little fingers caught the trick, and
whisk! how the suds foamed up! She
beamed as she beat, absorbed radiant.
