ate of Trinity Methodist Theological College, he is also studying for B.A. Lane Tauroa, son of Rev. M. Tauroa, of Tuakau, completing a course at the Trinity Methodist Theological College this year, and simultaneously studying for B.A. With a growing population, the Maori is in need of more leaders, especially those who have had the benefit of a higher education. The race is not lacking in intelligence. Who knows but your own child might be another Dr Buck or Apirana Ngata—he might even be an Einstein. The youth of the race must be given the chance to obtain the most valuable ‘taonga’ of the pakeha, namely the wisdom and knowledge to be gained through his highest institutions of learning. I feel that the parents of those Maori students now in University deserve special commendation for giving their boys and girls this opportunity. Doubtless the sacrifices they have made have not been primarily on their own behalf, but on that of the people. Among these students are the future leaders of the race. Present population trends (other things being equal) provide reasonable ground for believing that the race will survice for a very long time to come. The disparity between our society and that of the pakeha will become even more marked if we lag too far behind him in education. To Waikato I must make a special appeal. We are a long way behind the others, and our need for leaders is especially great. Me tuku nga tamariki kia tae ki te hohonutanga o te matauranga.*The following passage, being addressed to the Waikato tribe in particular, was written by the author in the Maori language.—Editor. E ai ki te korero a te Pakeha ‘Ko te tohu matau o te tangata ko te maha o nga kupu e mohiotia ana e ia. Mehemea ka kore te tangata e matau ki tetehi kupu kia kotahi e kore rawa e taea e ia te whakaaro. Engari kei te mahanga atu o nga kupu e mohiotia ana e ia te hohonu atu ai te haerenga o ona whakaaro.’ Ara, mehemea ka mau i te tangata nga kupu me ki kia rua tekau mano he tangata matau tena. Ka nuku atu ana i te rua tekau ma rima mano i te toru tekau mano ranei he tangata matau rawa tena. Kei nga kura wananga o te Pakeha te Hohonutanga atu o nga korero.
