 To almost all mainland Americans the work ''kanaka'' designates a race ter of fact the word in Hawaiian means man." A "Kanaka" is a man; a woman is a '+wahine-'
 Practically every Hawaiian proper name has a meaning. That of Duke Kohanamoku, worlds champion short means .@The Boatbui1der,'' 'Ka'' means the; ''hana" to work, and "nnoku" means boat.
 Haleakala, the great extinct vol means House of the Sum- Hale maumau, the mighty fire pit in the volcano of Kilauea means house of EveryIasting F'ire.' All the names of Hawaiian priests, priestesses, chiefs and kings ending in 'lani' or 'Kala- ni'' signif1ed that persons bearing those names were associated with heaven
 A literal translation of uku1e1e, musical instrument of wide renown, means flea and "lele'' to jump. Any thing that is good is "ono," but "ona'' means intoxicated, "Pua" is flower, but 'puaa'' is a pig, a distinction which makes an Hawaiian lover ex- tremely careful of his pronunciation.

 It is expected that with all these words of general use and many more which are common the visiting news paper men will return to the main land with far greater vocabuIaries than were theirs when they came to Honolulu.

If the bowels are inactive extra
