ticular day, its street seemed to
be paved with gold, and at least
one gateway to be made of pearl.
I have made many mistakes in my
life, but did not do so on that day,
and all the romantic dreams of
youth, "the reveries of a bachelor,"
have fallen far short of the
solid happiness of real life.
True, life has not always been
easy for us, and we have not been
exempt from our share of trials
and sorrows, but a gracious Providence
has brought us safely
through all, and we can say
"Thus far the Lord hath helped
us." Besides love helps us "to
bear all things," "it never
but will be as immortal as
the soul itself. We would be ungrateful
indeed not to adore the
wonderful goodness and mercy
which have attended us all our
lives, which has led us by ways
that we know not, and has cast
our lot in such pleasant places,
among true and tried friends.
"Time has touched us gently,
Humble voyagers we,
O'er Life's dim, unsounded sea."
But as Longfellow wrote:
"The night hath not yet come;
we are not quite
Cut off from labor by the failing
light;
Something remains for us to do
or dare,
Even the oldest trees some fruit
may bear."
I like the sentiment of Albert
Pike's poem, which concludes as
follows :
"The shores of Life are shifting,
And we are seaward drifting,
Every year.
But the truer life draws higher,
Every year.
But the truer life draws nigher,
Every year.
Earth's hold on us grows slighter,
And the heavy burden lighter,
And the Dawn Immortal brighter,
Every year.
A wedding cake covered with a
golden frosting was brought
the golden wedding bell late
in the afternoon and was cut by
the bride of fifty years ago, as she
had done in 1860, and the piece
was lifted by her daughter, Miss
Alexander.

If you are fond of walking, cycling,
camping or horseback riding,
join the Trail and Mountain
Club, whic his now ready for business,
is opening up trails, erecting
camp houses and organizing
tramping parties.
The Trail and Mountain Club
was organized April the fifth in
the rooms of the Chamber of
Commerce. It has already completed
its important committees
on each of the islands and will
now arrange for outings and
week-end tramps.
It is expected that the Honolulu
branch of the outing committee
will provide guides every Saturday
and Sunday who will meet
at a designated spot those who
wish to go for the walks advertised.
There will be short walks
to the mountains for the Saturday
and Sunday afternoon
and longer journeys for those
who wish to devote the entire day
to mountain exploring. Special
arrangements will be made for
those who wish to go camping
along the trails from Friday or
Saturday until Monday.
