[I hope Santa could fit this on his waa this year:
He malu ma ka honua, a he aloha no i kanaka.
Peace on earth and good will towards all people.]

We give our ALOHA KARISIMAKA to all of our readers, to those people who we pray that just as the light of the sun reaches the land and dispels the darkness from its path, so too be the light shining in our hearts; we are near the conclusion of the victory in our loyalty behind the Aloha Aina [“Patriotism”], and after it is complete, remember that we will be surrounded by eternal happiness. Merry Christmas to all.
[I thought that this was just as fitting today as it was back then…]
