A Zealandia view says federal idea gains ground rapidly, with momentum expected to grow when convention elections in fall occur. In Honolulu, the Free Kindergarten Association met under Mrs. OG M Hyde, noting Mrs. J T Waterhouse resigns as chair of the Hawaiian kindergarten due to planned departure for England. The Maomne work will stop as a new public primary school reduces need.

A new Portuguese kindergarten will be erected on church-plot land provided by the Hawaiian Board of Missions. A Japanese fair for this cause was announced.
