special service or ceremony.
‘These Congregational missionar-
ies from New England conducted
their first worship service on the
island on April 23, 1820, the first
Sunday after landing.
Because the Bible was silent
about Christmas, Lent and other
Holy Days, the early settlers of New
England declined to have anything
to do with such days.
Present day Congregationalists
make much of the Lenten season
and consider Easter a church holi-
day. The changeover began about
the middle of the 19th century with
Congregationalists on the Mainland.
(The United States is referred to as
Mainland in Hawaii.)
Roman Catholic Missionaries came
from France in July 1827 and the
following year observed Easter Sun-
day in the traditional manner of
their church.
~The next religious clergymen to
conduct Easter services here were
the Methodists in 1854. The Cali-
fornia Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church appointed Rev. W.
Turner to the First Methodist
Church of Hawaii. :
. I might note that the First Meth-
odist Church of Honolulu under the
fine leadership of Rev. Frank But-
terworth, is where I'm now an
affiliate member while stationed in
Honoluli as a Journalist for MATS,
(Military Air Transport Service.)
My home church is Carverton Me-
thodist, Rev. Robert Wood, Pastor.
The Right Reverend Thomas Net-
tleship Staly, first Anglican bishop
of Honolulu is credited by many as
being responsible for early obser-
vance of both Christmas and Easter
in ways considered traditional to-
day.
In 1868, it had become customary
for business places to close on Good
Friday, and Holy Week events ob-
served. Thus the Christian popula-
tion of Hawaii increased, and as it
increased its public observance of
the day increased more and more
each ‘year.
This year Easter Sunday started
by the observance at many sunrise
services throughout the Island.
Most striking of all, is the oldest
of s rites, the service at Punch-
bowl National Cemetery, where
many of our servicemen who lost
their Lives in Pearl Harbor, World
War II and Korea are resting in
_ peace. It is indeed an impressive
dering as I stood there, how many
‘of our Back Mountain boys, are
among these great heroes in Punch-
bowl. . ..; y
After a morning of worship, the
afternoon finds everyone going to
the beach at Waikiki, but the beach
at Waikiki is another story in itself.
1 did find that while I was at the
‘beach, people had what they called
Hawaiian Easter Baskets. They are
a fresh pineapple with the candy
and jelly beans stuffed in the top.
The thing I liked about it was . . .
. after you ate your candy, you could
eat the basket too . . .
In all Easter here in Hawaii was
an enjoyable one for me, and I only
wish you Back Mountain folks could
enjoy our warm weather . . . .
As they say here on the islands,
“ ALOHA”

At Convention
Mathematics Teachers
Gather In Milwaukee
Milwaukee, Wis., April 11 (Spe-
cial to The Post) — “Mathematics
teachers, as well as their students,
have plenty of problems to solve,”
Marie S. Wilcox told reporters as
she arrived from Indianapolis to
launch the 34th annual convention
of the National Council of Teachers
of Mathematics of which she is
president. “And the answers to our
problems,” Mrs. Wilcox added, “are
not found in the back of the book!”
But the needed answers to teach-
ing problems will be found by many
of the 1500 teachers of mathematics
now in Milwaukee to attend this
April 11-14 convention. Among
those here to take part in the con-
vention is: Esther J. Saxe, mathe-
matics instructor at Westmoreland
High School.
More than 50 meetings are sched-
uled, with discussions ranging from
the theory of mathematics to such
practical applications as ‘“Mathema-
tics for Future Taxpayers.” One
session will deal with “Mathemati-
cal Wonders.” Another, with “Ma-
thematics and the Guided Missile.”
Still another will report on how
mathematics is taught in other
lands: Great Britain, Germany, Nor-
way, France, and Belgium. Milwau-
kee’s superintendent of schools,
Harold S. Vincent, will greet the
convention on Thursday. Among
the distinguished speakers are many
nationally known educators and
also Vincent Cushing, of the Arm-
our Research Foundation in Chi-
cago. Saturday’s general session will
be addressed by William J. Duren,
Jr., president of the Mathematical
Association of America and Dean
of the Liberal ‘Arts College, the Uni-
versity of Virginia, in Charlottes-
ville.
The conventioners will have the
chance to visit Milwaukee schools,
to see films and film slides on
teaching methods, explore exhibits
of new materials and samples of |
pupils’ work, and to observe class-
room demonstrations put on by
master teachers.
