THE REV. RICHARD M. LUNDBERG

T R A IN E D W O R K E R S A R R IV E

All boys, it seems, a t some tim e in the ir lives have the am bition of becom ing an engineer in a fa r aw ay and exciting land. T he Rev. R ichard M. Lundberg, recently come to Iolani School, is like all boys in th is as in o ther things. T h a t he

actually has been a civil engineer ( see nex t p a ra g ra p h !) and tha t his favorite hobbies are toy railroads, stam p collec­tions, and boats is p roof conclusive tha t he will be com pletely a t hom e in sharing the enthusiasm s and in terests of the Iolani boys. M r. L undberg , a f te r his g rad u a ­tion from V irg in ia Theological Sem inary last spring, was appointed a m issionary to Japan . Since the in ternational situa­tion m akes th is w ork im possble a t p resent, he is very happy to be in H onolu lu w here there is am ple opportun ity fo r his chosen w ork w ith young people.

T he civil engineering episode occurred a f te r he le ft his birthplace, Philadelphia, to a ttend college in N ew M exco. A s a surveyor w ith the N ew M exico S tate H ighw ay D epartm ent, his m ain in terest became th a t o f acquainting him self w ith the youth organizations of each tow n in which he was stationed. In th is w ay was developed the in te rest tha t led indirectly to his enrollm ent in the V irgin ia Sem inary in 1937.

Since M r. L undberg w as already m ar­ried, he augm ented his studies a t Sem in­ary by taking a church a t B ailey’s C ross­roads, V irgin ia, follow ed by tw o years as assistan t a t the C athedral o f the In ­carnation , B altim ore, M d.

T he vacation periods a ffo rd ed both M r. and M rs. L undberg an onnortunity to explore the field o f social w o rk ; one sum m er was spent under the direction of the G raduate School in Cincinnati, Ohio, and ano ther w ith the P ro te s ta n t Episcopal

City M ission Society of N ew Y ork. Specifically, this la tte r experience m eant th ree m onths fo r M r. L undberg as chap­lain in w orld fam ous Bellevue Hospital w here he had daily contact w ith everv type- o f hum anity.

D uring this past sum m er the L und­bergs took w ork a t Colum bia U niversity and U nion S em inary in N ew Y ork, while aw aiting the outcom e of the Japanese situation. T h e happy outcom e has been the chance fo r th ree y ea r’s w ork in H ono­lulu— w ork fo r which they are exceeding­ly eager and enthusiastic.

T he L aym an’s T h an k O ffe r in g will be presented during the firs t annual L ay ­men’s C orporate Com m union in each Parish and M ission on A dvent Sunday, December 1st.

L ast M ay the Laym en 's League mailed one thousand L. T . O . containers to the male com m unicants in th is M issonary D istrict, w ith the hope th a t the m en of the C hurch would give the idea a fa ir trial. A lthough a m en’s thank o ffe rin g is not new, we in H aw aii' a re probably the f irs t to adopt the idea tha t— “A coin a day is the L aym an’s w ay” . O u r nam e, Laym an’s T h an k O ffe rin g , has an excel­lent chance of becom ing the nam e of the men’s thank o ffe rin g which has ju s t been authorized by the G eneral Convention.

Likewise, the idea of holding an annual corporate com m union fo r the m en of the Church is not new, in fact, it has become an annual event in the lives of the lay­men in m any of the leading Dioceses of the C hurch th ro u g h o u t A m erica. T he attendance a t one annual corporate com ­munion in one Diocese alone exceeded 7,000. T he usual tim e fo r such corporate communions is W ash in g to n ’s B irthday , but we believe th a t A dven t Sunday, the beginning of the new C hristian year, is a m uch m ore appropria te time.

T he plan th is year, as given ou t by the L aym en’s League, is to hold a special men’s corporate com m union a t the early service in each church th roughou t the T errito ry . W here possible, it is hoped that a b reak fast will im m ediately follow the service. T h e L. T . O . will be presented du ring the service, and every male com m unicant is asked to b ring his L. T . O. container. L as t m inute con­tributions will o f course be m ade by m any men despite the fact th a t the underly ing m otif is to encourage a daily o ffe ring .

T his y ea r’s o ffe rin g is to be used to supplem ent our budget so th a t the salary of our new ly ordained clergym an m ay be met. A ny am ount over and above th is requirem ent will be applied to the D io­cesan debt.

Considerable in terest was aroused at the annual m eeting of the L aym en’s League in ou r L aym an’s T hank O ffe rin g , and the resu lt o f ou r e f fo rt in this direction will be w atched, w ith in terest th roughout the en tire Church.

I t is the hope of the L aym en’s League to m ake the L. T . O . an annual a ffa ir , all monies received th e re fro m to be voted by the m en fo r special needs of the C hurch not otherw ise covered by the budget.

T h e success of this e f fo r t depends en ­tire ly on the m en of the C hurch. W e believe there is a certain spirtual som e­th ing o r o ther in the idea of all the m en o f the church m eeting once a year a t the same tim e, partak ing of the holy com ­m union as one united body, and then presen ting an o ffe rin g w orthy o f the name.

N o one person o r g roup of persons could possibly m ake th is e f fo r t the com ­plete success th a t it should be. I t is up to every m ale com m unicant. “ L ord strengthen T h y C hurch, beginning w ith M E .”

P E A C E O N E A R T H

A couple of years ago the M ost Rev. W illiam Tem ple, D .D ., A rchbishop o f Y ork, w rote a C hristm as m essage fo r the L iving C hurch. T he days for E ngland w ere not as serious then as today, yet the eternal m essage of C hristm as does not change.

W e reproduce his w o rd s :

“ I t is th a t change th a t C hrist came to accom plish in us. A s we gather around tha t In fa n t lying in the stable because the inn was full— a helpless child fo r whom there w as no room — and try sincerely to w orship H im , our pride m ust give way. F o r w orship is the subjection o f our whole n a tu re in all its parts and faculties to w hat is w o rsh ip p ed ; th a t is w hy it c a n 'r ig h tly be o ffe red only to God. I t m ay be some good to sing the old hym ns

К ---------------------------------------------- :-------------

and en joy the old stories— but not much, if th a t is all we do. W orsh ip of the In fa n t C hrist, if it be real w orship, could cleanse the whole world. I t is impossible to w orship in th a t sense the Baby w hom the w orld did not w ant and rem ain as proud and self-assertive as we had been. A ll nations in sp irit g a th er round H im , fo r the m om ent th a t Child is K ing of all alike. A t least let us m ake the m om ent real.

“ Peace on earth did not come firs t in the angels’ so n g ; w hat cam e firs t was G lory to God. I f there is God a t all. H e m ust be the chief fac tor in every situation. T o leave H im out of account is th e re fo re to handle it am iss. W e can­not f irs t have Peace on earth , and a f te r ­w ards ( if so d isposed) give G lory to God. W e m ust f irs t acknow ledge H im . not w ith a perfu n cto ry acquiescence, but w ith deliberate and sincere subm ission to H im o f our thoughts, desires, am bitions, hopes, purposes, and policies— in short, w ith w orship.

“T h a t w orship m ust be directed to God as seen in Jesus C h r is t ; fo r all w orship o ther than th a t is idolatry— the w orship of a false image. B ut suorem ely it m ust be w orship of the D ivine L ord , th rough whom all th ings w ere m ade and apart from w hom no single th ing hath hap ­pened, as St. Jo h n says, w ho yet was willing, in o rder to free us from tha t sin which is self-centeredness and the source of everything th a t em bitters life, to expose H im self, helpless, to the cal­lousness of men, as H e lay in the m anger.

Can we w orshin th a t? I f we can, there is hope fo r the w orld .”

O u r A m erican C hurch is ex tending a helping hand across the A tlan tic to the m other C hurch of E ngland . G eneral Convention agreed th a t we m ust send at least $300,000.00 to assist in the m ission­ary w ork of the B ritish C hurch. A nd the P resid ing Bishop asks tha t this am ount o r its pledged equivalent be in hand by C hristm as.

T he D istric t o f H onolu lu has set the th ird S unday in A dvent, or D ecem ber 15th. as the tim e when ou r Island o f fe r ­ing will be taken fo r this purpose. W e have sent fo r the special envelopes which should be in the hands of the clergy for d istribu tion a week previous to th is date.

O u r clerical deputy, the Rev. K enneth

D. Perk ins, a ttended the m eeting of the O ahu C lericus and A uxilia ry officials, the body w hich m ade th is decision, and told of the enthusiasm of the whftle C hurch fo r th is undertak ing . T h is com ­m ittee agreed th a t our goal fo r ou r dio­cese could not be less than $800.00.

T he m agnificent fact is tha t w ith 450 church buildings in E ngland totally or in p a rt dam aged by bom bs the C hurch there says no th ing about aid fo r them se lves; this is all fo r the ir w orld M issons. T h ree hundred thousand seems a lot o f money, but is m eager in com parison to the need.

T h e special enevelopes will be sent to the congregations as soon as they are received. O u r only request is th a t they be sent to the individuals o f each con­gregation.

F o r the firs t tim e in the h isto ry of the A m erican C hurch (since 1789) we give m aterial aid to the C hurch of E ngland in her hour of travail. O u r $300,000 con­tribu tion is small as fa r as dollars go, but it m eans billions in good-will.

A t last we have jo ined the Federal Council of Churches and the W orld Council o f C hurches, ( fo r better o r for w orse) , yet it does show tha t we recognize the value of a united C hristendom and are w illing to do our part.

T he creation of a Jo in t Com m ission to study and rep o rt in 1943 on the deleting of the w ord ‘‘P ro te s ta n t” from our o f f i­cial title. H aw aii started the renewed activity and will see it th rough.

B ishop H u d so n ’s clear cut presentation , a t the Jo in t Session, of the E nglish So­ciety fo r the P ropagation o f the G ospel’s plight. Some fig u res : T hey spend $15,- 000,000 per annum on m issionary w ork ( we spend $2,500,000) ; except a decrease of $6,500,000 due to the w ar. I sn ’t this A m erica’s opportun ity to play the Good S am aritan ?

T he absence of young m en in the house of deputies. O nly one lay deputy reg istered fo r the d ra ft. A verage age about 60. H aw aii’s delegation the young­est in the H ouse of D eputies.

S hortest and m ost business-like G en­eral Convention in a hundred years. Both houses com pletely organized the firs t day.

T he extem poraneous noon day prayers of our lovable and effic ien t P residen t of the H ouse of D eputies, the Rev. D r. ZeB arney Phillips— verbal jewels which would soften the hardest of hearts and u p lift the very w eakest o f souls.

T he au thorizing of a ‘‘Laym en 's T hank O ffe r in g ” for all the m en of the C hurch under the guidance of the N ational Council. L ittle seeds bear big fru it. H aw aii has its L. T . O. and helped in this project.

M arriage and D ivorce— lots o f talk, no action— fired the old com m ission a f te r years o f unselfish e ffo rt, and appointed a new one.

Bishop T u ck e r’s G od-inspired talk to the Jo in t Session.

T he concordat: N o action, but somelovely Resolutions.

C hurch D e b t: P re sen t to tal $36,000,- 0 0 0 ; In te res t about 5% per annum am ounting to $1,800,000 or about $300,-

000 m ore than we give to the N ational Council fo r all our M issionary work. A ction ta k e n : Jo in t Com m ission o rg an ­ized and em pow ered to w ork out re ­financing organization. H aw aii took an active lead. M ore later.

U. Т . O .— $970,000 plus. L. Т . O .— still an idea.

N ew H ym n book authorized. R esu lt— hym ns pitched fo r congregational sing­ing ; deletion of about 160 old hym ns and about same num ber of new ones added. W e believe , we will like it.

H aw aii d id n 't like Canon 30, so it will be rew ritten in o rder th a t all C lergym en will be tried in a un ifo rm m anner a f te r 1943. N o partia lity here.

Bishop L ittell buzzing around C onven­tion h a l ls : w orking day and night for H aw aii.

N egro Episcopate voted dow n— thank God.

Bishops to re tire at 72, if present action is ra tfied in ’43. (H o u se of D eputies re fra ined from app lause).

Dioceses of K ansas and Salina did not m erge. T he com m ission recom m ending m erger took its own pulse instead of the Dioceses concerned.

Episcopal C hurch adopted a C hurch flag. H aw aii’s resolution placing original in N ational C athedral forever, unanim ­ously adopted.

B u s i n e s s a f fa irs o f the C hurch strengthened through new Canon.

Gen. Canon 57 am ended so th a t no Parish , M ission, In stitu tion or congrega­tion m ay alienate o r m ortgage its prop- pertv w ithout consent o f B ishop and Council of A dvice or S tanding Com ­m ittee. H aw aii helped pu t this through.

T h is heading sounds agricu ltu ral and is m eant to have a H aw aiian atm osphere. I t m ay re fe r also to sugar cane or p ine­apples, we are not quite sure. A t any ra te—

F R O M K O N A W A Y comes the new s th a t the Rev. K enneth O . M iller is so m uch im proved th a t he is home from the hospital w here he m ust rem ain for some weeks to recuperate . W e are all so g ra te ­ful and send him o u r love.

T H E R E V . P H I L I P F U K A O is still in a hospital in H onolu lu but im proving steadily. I t w as a severe arm fractu re and will take some tim e to heal. O ur blessings to h im all th rough these days.

T h a t irrepressib le E piscopalian crow d on the Island of K auai are p lanning a F I F T E E N T H A N N IV E R S A R Y C E L E B R A T IO N to begin on D ecem ber 6 th w ith a parish d inner at A ll Sain ts ' P arish , K apaa, and from thence fo r several days all over the Island apparen t­ly. T he w rite r m entions this feelingly as he was graciously invited to come over and lend a hand. T he outlined program is breathlessly com prehensive. O u r con­g ratu lations to ou r b re th ren o f the G arden Island. F ifteen years and they are p lan­ning the eigh th C hurch building on the I s la n d ! Som ebody had best look to his laurels.

O U R D E P U T IE S A N D D E L E ­G A T E S from the G eneral Convention re tu rn ed N ovem ber 13. T h ere w as a public luncheon for the Rev. K enneth P erk in s th a t day and he told his story in a deligh tfu l and clear way to a large g ro u p in the Y. W . C. A . in H onolulu. T h e follow ing day the W o m an ’s A u x il­ia ry gave an afte rnoon tea a t Davies H all to the ir delegate M rs. E douard R . L. D oty and to the lay deputy, E douard R. L . Doty. T h e g ro u p m eeting w ith them listened to the ir accounts w ith absorbed in terest. T h ere is no doubt th a t we sent the righ t people to K ansas City.

F E W E V E R Y M E M B E R C A N ­V A S S repo rts are com ing in. St. C lem ent's has p re tty well finished, now reporting 180 adult pledges, a num ber exceeding any previous years. T his does not include the C hurch School and should be augm ented to over 200 by the end of the m onth. R esu lts show when people get busy on such a bit o f w ork. O ne resu lt o f th is activity was the form ation of a Y oung M arried G roup in St. C lem ent’s, the f irs t m eeting having 44 in attendance a t a hot dog roast. I t was both in form al and sa tisfac to ry and the s ta rt of a defin ite organization.

T H E T E A C H E R S O F T H E P R IO R Y have m oved into the ir new building, constructed on E m m a Square ju s t outside the P rio ry gates. I t is a necessary addition to th is vigorous and active g ir l’s school of the C hurch and we are all happy in th is developm ent.

M R S . D O N A L D R O B E R T S arrives on N ovem ber 27. She will stay a t the P rio ry w ith her daughter, while the boys will go to board at Iolani.

T H E B IS H O P A N D M R S . L I T ­T E L L re tu rn on D ecem ber 11 on the M atsonia. W e learned of his illness early in the m onth w ith m uch concern but feel assu red th a t he w as able soon to con­tinue his jou rney and busy program .

IO L A N I S C H O O L , a f te r a severe test in every gam e as it cam e along, was fo rtuna te enough to w in the cham pion­ship of the In terscholastic Football League fo r the second consecutive time. T he boys, facing severe com petition in every encounter, w ent th rough the season undefeated w ith one tie. W e give our hearty congratu lations to the School on its h ard -fig h tin g and successful team.

O U R M O S T H E A R T Y T H A N K S to the people who have sent in such gen­erous contribu tions to our Chronicle fund. N otices have been sent out to delinquent subscribers, and to those whose subscrip­tions in tim es past w ere taken care of by m eans o f g ifts . T he response has been m ost g ra tify ing . F o r those who. are regu lar subscribers each year, a ttention is called to the rem inder slip which may be detached and sent in.

T his will include the old R ecreation H all w here the services and S unday school of St. Jo h n ’s have been held fo r the past ten years. I f th is land is no t purchased, the m ission site will be lost. St. Jo h n ’s- by-the-Sea is the only Episcopal m ission on th a t side of the island.

One first-class passenger about to board the Humuula. Hawaiian cowboys, expert at this water polo, load a hundred or so cattle each week from the Island of Hawaii. Missionaries also ride this ship. One favorite item on the menu is oxtail soup.

M IS S IO N A R IE S O N A C A T T L E B O A T

“ D o they have a stew ardess on this boat” , asked a ra th e r tim orous fem inine voice as the ow ner thereof boarded the H um uula . A traveller, well versed in In ter-Is lan d transpo rta tion , let. his eye stray over the fo rw ard deck redundan t of the fact th a t a hundred and f ifty cattle had recently been passengers and re ­m arked, “well, they do have stew ards fo r the cow s.”

T his scene m ay rem ind the T re asu re r o f the N ational Council of his tr ip some years ago 011 board the short horned little steam er which negotiates the b rief distance between the Islands in about eighteen hours, stopping a t Lanai, M aui and v ari­ous points on the coast o f H aw aii. P a s ­sengers are bounced o f f on boats which are low ered over the side. T h is is in te rest­ing on dark n igh ts and w ith big waves. T he final destnation is reached along about 4 a. m. and the passengers depart. T hey ride on the funny little boats, but the cows, who are the re tu rn im portan t passengers, swim out to the boat and are hoisted aboard. N o w onder they need stew ards.

Such is travel in H aw aii fo r those who wish to reach K ona on the Island of H a ­waii. T he Bishop says he loves tha t tr ip and all old tim ers assure us the H um uula is the best boat in these parts.

By M ildred Staley

In ancient tim es the K orean people w ere fam ous fo r beau tfu l calligraphy and delighted in com m em orating the heroic

characters and deeds of g rea t m en by beautifu lly w ritten inscriptions on stone, metal, earthenw are, and wood. F o r in ­stance. on a v ast square rock or column are still to be seen clearly inscribed the records of how the ir heroic 19th king repelled the invasion of Japanese arm ies about 392 A .D . T h is rock is found stand ­ing on the Chinese side of the river Yalu, show ing tha t K orea then extended fa r into the p resen t “ M anchuria” .

M any other finely inscribed tablets and m onum ents dating from 57 B.C. relate the deeds of the ir heroic defensive arm ies, and of the brave Chinese generals who aided them to expel the invaders.

Lately, m any “ rubb ings”, and collections o f ancient beau tifu lly p rin ted archives and records of the K ingdom have been collected and classified, show ing a high standard of culture, even earlier than tha t o f Japan . M ost in te resting of all is the fact tha t p rin tin g blocks and m ovable type w ere used in early tim es fo r the prin ting of b o o k s; f irs t clay, then fine copper type was used. V ery early, a governm ent copper type foundry was establshed, and it cast over half a m illion of types. O ne book on etiquette w as finely p rin ted about 1214 A .D ., 200 years before G utenberg’s w ork in E urope.

A bout the same tim e was p rin ted a com ­plete translation into K orean of the B ud­dhist S crip tures, requ iring 81,000 blocks and tak ing 15 years to m anufactu re them, by hand carving. T hese are m ore correct and com plete than any sim ilar Chinese b lo ck s; they are still in good condition, and w ith them 6,805 volum es can be prin ted . M any o ther historic rem ains, draw ings, and a r t form s, collected from ancient tem ples, tom bs, and ru ined castles give evidence of a high degree of culture in h istory, litera tu re , religion and the a rts am ong these people. A ll such treasures

as could be moved, are now in the pos­session of the Japanese governm ent, which is carefu lly preserv ing them .

C A N O N A N D M R S . A U L T

All S a in ts’ D ay 1940 was the occasion of a deserved tribu te to the senior p riest of the M issionary D istric t of H onolulu and his w ife by St. A n d re w ’s C athedral P arish w ith w hich the ir lives had been associated fo r th ree decades.

T he H oly Com m union was celebrated at ten o’clock by Canon Pennell, assisted by the Rev. A rdys T . Dean, newly arrived from the Diocese of L ong Island to be a curate in C athedral P arish . T he Rev. Canon A ult w as also in the chancel.

Im m ediately a f te r the service in the church, the congregation moved to the clo ister o f the M em orials Building. H ere the congregation was augm ented by m any o ther in terested persons in P arish a ffa irs and friends of Canon and M rs. A ult.

Canon P ennell spoke briefly , f irs t ask ­ing G od’s blessing upon the bronze plaque to be unveiled and upon those tw o p e r­sons to whom the plaque m ade tribu te . T hen an appreciation of the very fine build ing fo r which the A ults w ere so largely responsible. T h e ir vision had provided one of the finest parsh build­ings in the A m erican C hurch, containing as it does the R obertson Cloister, P ark e Chapel, T enney A uditorium , Von H o lt K indergarten , P arish L ib rary and office.

and the m any other m em orials which provide classroom s on the tw o floors.

Canon P ennell’s rem arks w ere con­cluded when he unveiled the handsom e bronze plaque which the V estry had placed on the C loister ju s t a t the P arish O ffic e door, and the w ords of the tribu te m ade fitting conclusion to the purpose of the g a th e r in g :

“T o H onor T he V ery R everend W illiam A ult and M rs. A ult, whose in te rest and e f fo r t m ade possible this M em orial Building, A ll S a in ts’ Day, 1940.”

Canon A u lt then spoke and w ith be­com ing m odesty gave cred it to his gbod w ife. M rs. A ult was prevailed upon to say a few w ords, in which she expressed gra titude to the m any who had assisted so generously in m aking the ir e f fo r t suc­cessful. I t will be rem em bered th a t the B uilding Com m itee consisted of Bishop L ittell, who la ter resigned, and D ean and M rs. A ult, M rs. H a rry M. von H olt. M r. R obbins B. A nderson and M r. D es­m ond Stanley.

A t the inception of the idea of a M em orial B uilding the A ults had received enthusiastic encouragem ent and coopera­tion from Bishop L a M othe. T he build­ing was dedicated on O ctober 9, 1932 by Bishop Littell.

A fte r the cerem ony of unveiling- the plaque and the speaking, refreshm ents w ere served on the lawn by M rs. H aro ld Podm ore and M rs. K enneth D ay, the two wom en m em bers of the V estrv . M rs. Podm ore had attractively decorated around the plaque w ith perona and w hite gladiolas.

T he occasion was one of happiness and satisfaction to the hosts of friends o f the A ults and to the R ector. W ardens and V estry of C athedral P arish , all o f whom desired some such expression of their a ffec tion and appreciation of Canon and M rs. Ault.
