Additional Information | There is a short essay about some of the hateful things that happened to Jesus. Another short essay submitted to the paper speaks about the thoughts of school teachers in Honolulu in comparison to foreign school teachers. The author begs the question whether the teachers in Honolulu should work collaboratively and create a standard of curriculum. Limaikaika agrees, believing that the teachers in Honolulu are not well-prepared. Another short essay describes the electric eel, which is not seen in Hawaiʻi. A picture accompanies the description. Another essay reviews the letter from Binamu about his travels to New York. Another article then talks about the low standards seen in schools. The article says that there are 18,034 children enrolled in schools, but only 5,514 know how to read. It is accompanied by a statistics chart that includes the number of schools in each area, as well as the number of students, teachers, and the number of people who can read, count, and know geography. There is a small description of the purchase of the boat Kekauluohi by Kekuanaoa. Lafona submits an article speaking to the idea of how important our bodies are and they should be treated as a temple in simple ways such as showering. Local news items including marriages are also in this issue. |
