FEBRUARY 11, 1919 SUBSCRIPTION RATES, $2.50 PER YEAR 5 CENTS PER COPY KAANA CHOSEN , FORGAMP SITE The camp site committee of the Chamber of Commerce, with sev-er- other live wire members of lbat body, making a party of fif- teen in all, motored to the site of the proposed summer camp near llalemanu, last Saturday afternoon and spent the night in that most invigorating and climate. The reason for the visit of the committee was for the purpose of meeting Mr. Agustus Knudsen, ' who notified the committee that their request for a lease of about ten acres in the vicinity of I'uuloa, had met with the approval of the Knudsen Brothers, and that he would be pleased to assist in selecting site. Messers. Knud- sen Urothers,have offered the land at a nominal rental for the re- mainder of their lease, at which time the land in that locality will be made part of the forest reserve which adjoins it. niaukn, and will be in the hands of the Board of Agriculture and Forestry, with whom the committee have every i rtp mi a hope of as liberal treatment as has been 'afforded by the Knud sen Brothers. The site selected is known as ICaana, about two miles from llalemanu. It is a delightful spot right on the edge of that most wonderful work of nature, the Waimea 'Canyon, at an altitude of o4.')5 feet. Amidst stately koa trees, ferns and other beautiful ) shrubbery, it is an ideal spot for the generous purpose to which the chamber desires to devote it. Of the many worthy enterprises which the Chamber of Commerce has advanced in its career of use- fulness, this is one of the most deserving of support. With a comfortable lodge erected here in which families can come and spend a few days occasionally each year, it will not be necessary for them to make the expensive trip to the coast to get the benefits of an invigorating climate, be- cause we have it right at this Hummer camp, and just as good as you can get on the mainland. Besides the invigorating clim- ate, this region cannot be sur- passed anywhere in the world for beauty and grandeur. It is the ideal spot for the sportsmen, with abundance of wild goats; wild hogs, wild chickens, pheasants and plover. At present the road to this region is not in very good shape, but with the expenditure of a few hundred dollars it could be proper drains construct- ed, and put into condition so an automobile could go up with ease. 1 Two members of the party came from the camp to Lihue in three hours, which is easy when you take into consideration the dis- tances people travel on the coast, and the almost impassible roads thov will travel over to get to summer camps not nearly so good as ours. A Night at the Camp Site The gentlemen who made the trip up to the summer camp last Saturday were unfortunate in selecting the only day it had rain ed at the camp for some weeks. Arriving after dark, and with no shelter from the drizzling rain, the unfortunates groped about in the dark, chilly dampness until they gathered enough t wood to WE IS TIKE . THE FIRST MOVE The Kauai Chamber of Com- merce is in receipt of a letter from MeClellnn, our commercial representative at Washington, in Which he calls attention to the stipulation in the Nawiliwili Harbor bill, requiring that the necessary land adjoining the wharves be secured by the Terri- torial Government. It seems that according to the terms of the trust the Kanoa Es- tate is forbidden to make any sale of land. Accordingly it will be necessary for the Territory to bring suit to condemn whatever land may be necessary. It seems that a (iOO ft. strip will be requir- ed at the shore end of the wharves, and a roadway strip along the shore to the end of the break- water.. In view of the fact that the Kanoa property will be immensely benefited by this harbor develop ment, it is understood that the remuneration for this land so taken will be merely nominal. McClellan calls attention to the fact that early action should be taken in this matter as it must be disposed oil' satisfactorily before any actual work can be done on the enterprise. lie inquires as to whether any such action is be- ing taken.. It is stated that the Harbor Commissioners instituted pre- liminary action in the matter some tinie ago, but dropped it when they learned that the Kauai Kailway Co. would not connect up with Nawiliwili. SMSw'?'M$M$$$'4$$fl f ? I4 f $ start a fire. The lire going, they all stood around it and solemnly declared there was a kahuna in (heir midst, and demanded that he stand forth. No man moved. But one there was who stood with hanging head, and upon him were l'ocussed the accusing eyes of his brethern. At last he stepped slowly forth and with trembling lips, admitted that he was the guilty wretch who had brought the rain. No names will he mentioned, but this man lives at Wainiha. The warmth of the glowing fire and a hearty supper, soon revived the drooping spirits of the un- fortunates, and the arrival of Brother Walworth with his acces- sorized jitney bus, which has a dynamo attached to it's innards, enabled them to enjoy the luxury of an electric lighted camp. With the camp brightly lighted, strips of canvas were collected from the bed rolls and a shelter was made which decidedly im- proved conditions. There is one little incident in connection with this party that we relate, though it reflects some what to tlfu discredit of two of our plantation managers (again we will not mention any names), ami their companions, one of whom lives in Honolulu but spends a great deal of time on Kauai. These men arrived wet and cold after- - the others had partaken of a warm and sumptuous repast, and feeling so'rry for the above mentioned plantation managers and compau ions, the first arrivals put the coffee pot on and prepared hot dogs, bacon, spuds and other life sustaining morsels. When all was in readiness a messenger was despatched to escort the unfortun- ate men to the repast that had been prepared with such loving hands and tender care. The messenger came slowly CONFERENCE OF LOCAL COMMITTEE There was a meeting of the Child Welfare forces from all over the Island at the home of Mrs. Lydgate on Friday after- noon, at which the following ladies were present: Mrs. It. 1). Moler, from Lihue; Mrs. Donald, representing Kekaha ; Mrs. Cropp, from Koloa; Mrs. Senui and Mrs. Burke, from Kapaa-Keali- a ; Miss Langwith, from Kilauea, and Mrs. Deverill, from Haualei. The purpose of the meeting was to talk over the needs of the child- ren in the various districts, to confer as to what could be done to meet those needs, and generally to compare notes and absorb ideas that might be stimulating and helpful. Very encouraging reports o good beginnings and even of sub- stantial accomplishment came from most of the districts, and plans are in progress for farther undertakings. By common consent of all pres- ent much emphasis was given to the value of school sports and recreation for all the children, not merely the older. ones, and every effort will be made to encourage, and inaugurate where necessary, such sports and recreations in which all the children may parti- cipate. The prizes already provided were admired and there were many applicants for the loan of them to show by way of stiring interest and enthusiasm. They were finally carried oil' forcibly in the interest of the Kapaa school. Toward the end of the meeting, Mr. Warner appeared by special arrangement to explain the sched- ule of base ball 'and basket ball events which he had worked out, and which met with general favor. There was a very encouraging spirit of cordiality, enthusiasm and rivalry throughout the meet- ing which gives promise of great things for the future, and every- one went home with a vision of better things, and a fuller determ- ination to realize them. ROSES Members of the party that visited the summer camp last Saturday and Sunday, Visited Haleinanu, the mountain house of the Knud-sen- s' where they discovered beau- tiful English roses growing in great provision. These great, big beauties are flourishing up there in that glorious climate, and are without the disfiguring marks of destroying insects. It is worth the trip to llalemanu just to see those roses.

OW 10 F N ICE THE MAHELONA In connection with the regular meeting of the County Super- visors on Wednesday there was a conference with the trustees of the Sam Maheloua Hospital and the members of the Legislature to consider the needs of that institu- tion, and devise ways and means to provide for them. .1'. Wishard, chairman of the supervisors, called the meeting to order about '2 p. in. and read the report of the manager of the hos- pital, Dr. Kuhns. This report made it very clearly evident that as at present equipped and run, that institution is entirely in-- ' adequate to the needs of the is- land. Along all lines and in all departments it needs a larger equipment, and it will never be anything but a very partial and inadequate success until it is set on its feet. After the reading of this report Mr. Wishard appealed to the trus- tees as to whether they were satis-lie- d with the way in which funds wore provided for the running of that institution. ''You are de- pendent on short term grants from the board of supervisors, or grants from the territorial legis- lature, or from the board of health, or perhaps the generosity of private parties. The result is ilia t you are more or less living from hand to mouth, always hampered for means, always un- certain as to the future, always more or less worried as to how you are going to come out. What ever if may have been in the earl- ier 'stages, this is now a perinan cut institution. It has come to stay, and we have got to take care of it jusl as we have to take c.ire of our schools.' Tuberculosis a growing evil in our midst, as 'well as a permanent one, and we might as well settle down to a permanent basis of dealing with it. "It must be very unsatisfactory to you trustees, very humiliating in fact, to have to conduct that institution on a hand to mouth basis to have to go out every few mouths, hat in hand, and beg money for it. 'Don't you think that the prop- er way to secure money for such an absolutely indispensable and permanent institution, is to make a special tax levy for it. jusl as we do for schools? Then you would know just about what you were going to get, and when you would get if, and wouldn't have to beg the favor of anyone to get it." This being put directly to each trustee, they all agreed that this .would be a great improvement and would undoubtedly relieve the situation very much. Mr. lirandt supplemented Mr Wishard by calling attention to the fact-tha- t apparently $2"i,000 a year would be required for the proper conduct of the place, to say nothing of the very much needed permanent improvements. While the supervisors might hv justified in increasing the present appropriation to $ 113,(101), they would hardlv venture to do more than this; which would leave $iLM)()0 or !M:t,)00 to be provided for in other ways. Kit tier it should come from the Territory by special appropriation, 'or by mak ing provision for a special tax levy. This latter would seem to be much the more satisfactory way, in that it would be a permit-(Continue- on page fi) IP C O WELFARE Kekaha At the Kekaha public school an afternoon of supervised day has been inaugurated with such games and sports as will appeal to the children, to he followed by a story telling session. After consulta- tion with the teachers, it became evident that many of the children were imperfectly nourished,' be cause of inadequate or unsuitable food, so that this seems to be the most pressing problem there. A school kitchen furnishing lunches, at a nominal price, is probably the only adequate and permanent way of meeting the need. This will call for the cooperation of the school authorities, and will take time. Meanwhile the interested parlies are casting about for some temporary means of meeting the dilliculty. Wanned and Pal:ala Uase ball and basket ball out- fits have been arranged for and will be in hand shortly, so that the (earns can begin work at the earliest possible dale. The problem of transportation for the competing games, which is apt to be a discouraging probl- em', has been solved, and this transportation is provided for. Makuircli With a prompt and early get- away at the start, Makawoli is well in advance of most of the places in child welfare work. The story hour; the supervised play afternoon with suitable equip- ment; base ball and basket ball teams at work and doing well; as sured transportation whenever it is needed; these are some of the accomplishments of Makaweli. In addition to these a community school nurse has been sent for. and will be on the grauml soon. where she will find everything readv for ellicient work. Koloa Owing to (he absence of the chairman of the local committee there, Koloa has been a little late in getting started. Hut Koloa has always been 'wide awake in the matter of school sports; they al- ready have a pretty good outfit, and Mr. Hush, the principal of the school, is an enthusiastic and energetic leader, and there are other patrons of athletics who will see that Koloa doesn't take any back seat. Lihue Mrs. Moler reports the inaugur- ation of a special home field. Well grassed over and shaded, and of generous proportions, adjoining the manager's residence, for the Lihue school children. This is to be equipped with suitable ap- pliances and will supplement the school grounds which are verv cramped. Kiptt This school heretofore known as the Iluleia school will be equip ped with thf necessary appliances for the minor sports, suited to (he smaller children. They have never had much of a chance for any- thing of this kind, anil they will appreciate anything that is done for them. llanuinaulu This school is rejoicing in the gift of a basket ball outfit which is to be installed immediately.

The site selected is known asICaana, about two miles fromllalemanu. It is a delightful spotright on the edge of that mostwonderful work of nature, theWaimea 'Canyon, at an altitudeof o4.')5 feet. Amidst stately koatrees, ferns and other beautiful

THE FIRST MOVE

The Kauai Chamber of Com-

merce is in receipt of a letterfrom MeClellnn, our commercialrepresentative at Washington, inWhich he calls attention to thestipulation in the NawiliwiliHarbor bill, requiring that thenecessary land adjoining thewharves be secured by the Terri-torial Government.

It seems that according to theterms of the trust the Kanoa Es-

In view of the fact that theKanoa property will be immenselybenefited by this harbor development, it is understood that theremuneration for this land sotaken will be merely nominal.

THE MAHELONA

In connection with the regularmeeting of the County Super-visors on Wednesday there was aconference with the trustees ofthe Sam Maheloua Hospital andthe members of the Legislature toconsider the needs of that institu-tion, and devise ways and meansto provide for them.

.1'. Wishard, chairman of thesupervisors, called the meeting toorder about '2 p. in. and read thereport of the manager of the hos-

pital, Dr. Kuhns. This reportmade it very clearly evident thatas at present equipped and run,that institution is entirely in-- 'adequate to the needs of the is-

land. Along all lines and in alldepartments it needs a largerequipment, and it will never beanything but a very partial andinadequate success until it isset on its feet.

After the reading of this reportMr. Wishard appealed to the trus-tees as to whether they were satis-lie- d

"It must be very unsatisfactoryto you trustees, very humiliatingin fact, to have to conduct thatinstitution on a hand to mouthbasis to have to go out every fewmouths, hat in hand, and begmoney for it.

This being put directly to eachtrustee, they all agreed that this

Mr. lirandt supplemented MrWishard by calling attention tothe fact-tha- t apparently $2"i,000a year would be required for theproper conduct of the place, tosay nothing of the very muchneeded permanent improvements.While the supervisors might hv

KekahaAt the Kekaha public school an

afternoon of supervised day hasbeen inaugurated with such games

and sports as will appeal to thechildren, to he followed by a storytelling session. After consulta-tion with the teachers, it becameevident that many of the childrenwere imperfectly nourished,' because of inadequate or unsuitablefood, so that this seems to be themost pressing problem there. A

school kitchen furnishing lunches,at a nominal price, is probably theonly adequate and permanent wayof meeting the need. This willcall for the cooperation of theschool authorities, and will taketime. Meanwhile the interestedparlies are casting about for sometemporary means of meeting thedilliculty.

fits have been arranged for andwill be in hand shortly, so that the(earns can begin work at theearliest possible dale.

"P.YKON IS HEAD'." Birds were sing-

ing. Flowers were blooming, (iolden sunshineHooded the world. 'Nothing in Nature's aspectintimated that a great man was dead." Hutto the stunned, heart-broke- boy, all thingsseemed at an end.

To millions of American citizens a similarsentiment has come this week. Nor can we

wonder at it. This man was so active, so vital,so aggressive, so much the very incarnation ofof life, that death for him seems grossly incon-

gruous. He was so much a leader of men. soinu.li ilit inspiration of a whole people, thatfor him to be gone seems like taking away thevery heart of things. His friends, who werelegion, may well cry, "Whom now shall welove?" His opponents, whom he of course had,may wonder with whom now shall we con-

tend?"There is occasion for surprise, in a review

of his career, lo see how long it was and forhow many years he was a conspicuous figurein the public eye. lie was not yet an old man;some of us who are older' will not admit theinevitable impeachment; yet it was more thana generation ago that he brought the attentionof the Slate upon himself when, a striplingAssemblyman in his lirst term, he defied bossesand party and the admonitions of friends bydemanding the investigation of a public offi-

cer simply because he was convinced that heought to be investigated. It was thirty-fiv- e

years ago that he became a national figure asa commanding leader of the forces of independ-ence and high ideals in a Presidential cam-

paign. There were not lacking men of visionin those days who saw for him a future secondto none in the annals of the Republic ; and theirvision was not vain.

New York obtained a fuller knowledge ofher son nearly a third of a century ago, whenhe was recalled from the Western ranch wherehe had sought and found renewed health andthe spirit that dominated him all ihe rest oflife, to be a vandidate for the Mayoralty. Itwas significant that he was opposed on ihe onehand, by the machine politicians, ami on theoilier by the motley throng of Socialists andsemi-Socialis- t agitators, lie was defeated, buthe made an impress upon metropolitan politicslhat was not easily to be effaced. Thereafterf.ir a number of years he was a Federal CivilService Commissioner at Washington, admin-isu-rin- g

that Merit System of which he hadlong been an advocate. Again he served hisnative city as the head of its Police Hoard,demonstrating that laws which had been deadtellers could be made very much alive and verypotent for the public good when administeredby a really live man.

It has often and truly been remarked thatthe only factor on the Allies' side in the presentwar that was ready for ihe unexpected shockwas the Hritish Navy, which by its instantreadiness saved the whole situation. It is noless true that the one efficient branch of ourmilitant services at the beginning of the Span-ish War wa.i our N'avy, which in two notablebattles won the war; and it is indisputablethai the chief credit for that readiness belong-ed to Theodore Roosevelt, who had for morethan a year been Assistant Secretary of thatJ '' p.ii i nt.

and English was established in itsplace. It was a sacrifice for them,but they made it willingly in theinterest of loyalty to their newallegiance; and they nre contentwith the education which makesthem thoroughly and patrioticallyAmerican.

The Portuguese are a large andInfluential element of our popula-tion ; they too, are content withan education which makes themthoroughly a n d patrioticallyAmerican. So too are the Fili-

pinos, and the Porto Ricans andthe Koreans. They are all con-

tent with American education be- -

ments in the war, as a fighting commander inthe field, and afterward as the foe of the redtape which was more fatal to our men thanthe Spanish soldiery had been, it is unneces-sary to speak. The nation is often forgetful,but there nre times when it remembers whenthere is nothing left but memory.

Concerning Roosevelt's later and stillmore eminent career, controversy has ever beenactive, and may never entirely subside. Butit would be g for even his severestcritic to pretend that his place is not indubi-tably secure among the greatest Governors ofthe Empire State and among the greatestPresidents of the American Republic. It isnot too much to record that his Administrationin each case marked an epoch, first in Stateand then in national history. The student andthe historian in future years will be surprisedto find how often he has to refer to those Ad-

ministrations as the starting points of greatcivic impulses.

At the present time, when internationalissues dominate the world, it is pertinent torecall the masterful character and the benefic-ial results of his foreign policy. There was nohesitancy, there was no compromise, therewas no supine opportunism. There was anassertion and there was a maintenance ofAmerican rights and dignity and honor thatnever had been surpassed by any of his pre-

decessors. Yet there was peace. He couldorder the battle fleet with Dewey in commandto be ready to meet German invasion on theVenezuelan coast; but the only result wasthat the German invasion was withheld. Hecould send our war fleet on a cruise aroundthe world, to show all the nations the sea-pow-

of the Republic; but .it came homeagain without having to fire one hostile shot.

What wonder that the outbreak of thepresent war aroused him to something likean testacy of patriotic passion? The resoluteand beneficient diplomacy which he had prac-ticed was fallen into Bryanized decay. Themilitant preparedness for which he had strivenwas neglected. The robust Americanism ofwhich he had been the prophet and the expon-ent was sicklied o'er with the pale cast ofinternationalism and neutrality. There wasneed for a voice to speak; and he spoke.

To millions, as we have said, it will seeman irreparable calamity that he should betaken away just at this time, when the nationand, indeed, the world, seem so greatly to bein need of him. Yet it would be a poor tributeto him to intimate that his work had not beenso well and so completely done as to endurein triumph after his departure. We believethat it will endure. The people will not forgethis words and his example. He roused them,and they will not fall asleep. His last words,uttered with no thought that they were to behis last, will live in millions of hearts andminds as vitally as though his vibrant toneswere still repeating them:

''There can be no divided allegiance here.Ann nH,n !''"" says he is an American, butsomething else also, isn't an American at all.We hare room for but one flay, the Americanflay.. We have room for but one, language hereand that is the English language. And ue haveroom for but one soul loyalty, and that is loy-

alty to the American people."With the poet of Flanders' fields, his

spirit may well cry to those who so long andso passionately loved his leadership,

To you from falling hands we throwThe torch; be yours to hold it high.

In his own farewell words, publicly utter-ed only a few hours before his death, hesaid: "There must be no sagging back in thefight for Americanism merely because the waris over." We respond, with all reverence,with all possible sense of loss, but with allthe indomitable resolution which he so superb-ly personified: There must be no saggingback in the fight for Americanism, not evenbecause Theodore Roosevelt is dead.

Exhibits at Fairs of

Great Importance

Despite the fact that the UnitedStates was engaged in war, theDepartment of Agriculture placedmore than thirty special exhibi-- t

i o n s and demonstrations instate fairs last year. At thesame time, in cooperation withother governmental departments,it sent an impressive joint gov-

ernment exhibit to thirty-seve- n

state and other fairs and exposi-tions.

This activity, as announced inthe 101S annual report of Secre-tary Houston, indicates the im-

portance attached by the UnitedStates government to agriculturaland similar exhibitions, such asthose shown at the TerritorialFair last June.

Through its experimental stat-ion at Honolulu the Departmentof Agriculture took an active partin Hawaii's first fair and may beexpected to have a display ofequal or perhaps greater impres-sivenes- s

at the approaching cele-

bration next June."It is believed," Secretary

Houston says, speaking of thejoint exhibit sent out to the statefairs in 1 IMS. ''that this was of thehighest value in educating andstimulating ihe people to greaterindustrial activities, to largeragricultural production, and to a

broader and deeper appreciationof their country and government."

These special exhibits by theDepartment covered a wide rangeof territory, from New England toFlorida and California and wereinspected bv more than Il.OOO.OOO

A LETTER FROM THE FRONT

Lihue people will remember MIhs

Elizabeth Andrews, who npont poveral

weeks here a year or so ago, and tnadomany friends. The following letterhas been received by one of thoHO

friends, and will be of Interest to thegeneral public:

Last Tuesday, Nov. 19, the Frenchtroops marched triumphant throughMetz, and I was one of the threeAmerican women to be there. I wasso proud. It was a mere accident too,

but if it had not been for StanfordUniversity I should not have beenthere. Two of us had walked andridden on all conveyances from motortransport to a French camion fromhere to Toul. There we met a colonelwho said he was going to Metz thefollowing day. He wanted us to go.

He said sixteen colonels had appliedfor passes from the general and threehad been obtained. We were notdaunted, and what do you think thegeneral gave us passes. Also theFrench tenth army general. We allwere so surprised that we could notbelieve our good fortune, but we wereso happy. So early the next morningwe two with three colonels and achauffeur started for Metz. I cannever describe it all to you. It wouldtake days. But we started out forNancy. It was walled and gated andwe had some time getting out whenwe got In we did get out and wereon the road.

First we went up to northern Loraine to visit near the fields of StMihiel. There was an old Chateauthat had been an old rendevou ofone of our colonels. We found itruined a gastly skeleton of formersplendor the kennels, garages andstables were used as billets and weretorn by shells until they were mereruins. It was on the edge of thebattle field. We walked over to theGerman trenches and down the awfulshell plowed fields. The shell holestouched each other and how onearth a living thing came throughthis hell is more than human mindcan fathom the battered trencheswith fragments of guns, twisted bayonets, helmets, bits of clothing andmud mud. Then the dug outs filledwith deserted rows of bullets, stringsof machine gun beltg, hand grenadeseverything awful. And beds and bedswhere the poor souls tried to rest (oget out again to face the fire of neverending guns. AH along the roadswere camouflaged and the trees weretwisted and shattered dozens of little towns were heaps of ruins. Andin each little town returning refugeeswith their poor little wealth onrickety wagon, ' looking hopelesslyabout the piles of mortar fO. theirformer homes. It would break yourheart, and if any eyes were dry we didnot see them. And all about thenew mounds with little crosses theprice of the war the fiendish price

So we crossed no mans' land and noone talked much. There was nothingto say. Words were as small asthoughts were large that day butwhen we came to the hills of Metzour voices returned and we againbreathed. Far down the windinghills the wonderful red roofs of thecity shone in the bright sunlight. Allabout were hills the famous fortifiedhills of Metz. The air was filled withplanes, and the streets were gay withbright costumes of the natives andthe lovely sky blue of the French uni-

forms.We ate at a hotel that shifts with

the tide French to English to Ger-man back to French just what everis handy. It was queer and the pro-

prietor was a suave, hand-rubbin-

straw blown about as the wind went.The last breeze had blown fromFrance and he was French. Thewhole' town showed more or less thesame tendency a nation that hasbeen shifted like pawns on a chessboard for so long has little spunk left.A good bed, a good meal Es machsaus that Is all, and so when theysaw the parade they cheered "vivela France". A few weeks before theGerman troops had filled the streetsand a word changed made the cry fitjust as well. When we arrived wewere the show. We were new. Thecrowd turned to us and some in Ger-man and some in French expressedtheir opinion I understood one andmy pal the other, so we got it all. Itwas very good too. They wanted tosee us march by US I mean Ameri-cans, of course. Well, we saw thebombed depot and city then wentback to Nancy for a splendid dinner.Colonel Lahm, chief of the air serviceof the second army, was with us andwe certainly were the real queens ofthe Inn. Two other colonels werealong and we felt a bit bedraggledamong the French generals, etc., whocame to dine. But we were ravenousand ate for four hours without stop-

ping scarcely at all. And so for threedays we were A. W. O. L., which isnot very good if they catch you intime, but had they sent me home I

could not have resisted for no suchthing happens twice in a lite time.

THE GARDEN ISLAND. TUESDAY. FEB. 11, 1919

A HISTORIC SPOTA very interesting and attracti-

ve historic spot, which is littleknown and seldom visited, is theold Urowu place, just inakai ofthe Wailua Falls, Waiehu Falls

anil overlooking the Konaleasection of Hie Waiiua Valley.

Away hack in the early part oflast century, 75 years or so ago,Tims. Drown, father of Cecil and(iodfrey Drown, secured a leaseof a large tract of the Wailualand for the purpose of conduct-ing a large ranching business.

In those days no one everdreamed of Liluie being anything,while Wailua was the ancientcapital, and still a place of con-

siderable importance and popu-lation. Accordingly, having look-

ed the whole country over prettythoroughly and having a keen eyefor scenic beauty, Drown selectedthis spot, known to the llawaiiansas Kumala, and there built hishome and installed his ranchheadquarters, including a finedairy; and there too, in the courseof time, he created a fine land-scape garden, with many rare im-

ported trees and shrubs not seenelsewhere on the Islands amongthem the magnolia and the dur-ant-

In those early days importedlumber was almost out of thequestion, since it had to comeround the Horn from Xew Eng-land. It was before the dajs oflumber on the North West Coast.The only practical means of get-

ting lumber was to go up into themountains, and hew it, or whipsaw it out. This was what Thos.Drown did. And it took a longtime and was a slow, laboriousbusiness, the more o as he hadambitious ideas as to whnt a homeshould be. lie had a wife andchildren. The comforts and pleas-ures of life at best would be scantenough. A comfortable home,amid artistic surroundings, thiswas about nil they could count onin their simple, pioneer life. Theyought at any rate to try ami havethat much.

Accordingly he secured specialplans from England, for a com

inodious Home, drawn up "y aprofessional architect, which heundertook to work out, even thohis lumber was all in the niountains, to be cut, hewed, and trans-ported to the site, at great costof time and labor. The planswhich came from England madecareful provision for a fortifiedcellar to which they might retreatas a measure of safet' from thesavages. This feature, however,was omitted in the building.

The house, when finally completed, was a- - seven days wonderfor the whole country side. Itcontained six large rooms andwas linished in piaster, after theold country custom, i luxury un-

heard of in those davs.In its palmy days it was a most

hospitable and popular resort.and the scene of many a happygathering. There was a passableroadway down into the valley atKonalei, where the rice plantationnow is, at the head of navigation,and from there it was a charmingrow down the river to the Wailuavillage, the sea and the publicroad. Even more than now, be-

cause of the hospitable receptionat the end, it was the popular out-

ing for an afternoon or eveningpicnic, and the placid waters andthe palisaded walls of the ancientriver to many a happypeal of laughter, and many amelodious song.

Dut not all it's memories werehappy ones. After the Drownsmoved away to Honolulu, themanagement of the ranch wasgiven over to a nephew, Alfred F.Turner, who of course lived at theDrown place. Those were dayswhen white women were scarce inthe laud, and very choice, andhard to get. On the other hand,Hawaiian maidens were plentifuland some of them very comely,and not averse to gallant atten

lions. Young Turner became en-

amored of one of these Hawaiianwomen, who lived down at themouth of the valley, and thitherhe went frequently to spend theevening with her. On one parti-cular evening in February of 1854,he left the ranch about sunset forhis usual trip, got into his canoeat Konalea and paddled down theriver; and was never seen aliveagain.

lust what happened to him wasnever known. The llawaiianshave a very confident and circumstantial story, telling how as hewas leisurly paddling by the over-

hanging clill' at the bend of theriver, just below Konalea, themermaids who lived in the cav-

erns under water, appeared ingreat numbers, swimming in thewater, with their lithe forms andwavy black hair, and begged himto come and dwell with them; andwhen he refused and redoubledhis efforts to escape from them,they closed in and set upon himin force; they climbed into hiscanoe, wrenched lus paddle awayfrom him, bound him with strandsof hau bark, threw him overboard,leaped in after him and conveyedhim down into the emerald caverns below where he still remainsto this day at least he has neverbeen seen above grouud since.

Unfortunately for the veracityof this story, his body was founda couple of Jays after the event,cought in the tish nets stretchedacross the river. Evidently cupidity was not the incentive of thecrime as his pockets had not beenrifled, and his watch was intact.The most probable explanation isthat he was a victim of jealousy,and that his rival for the a fleetions of the woman would notbrook his interference and tookthis means of removing him fromthe race.

A very well preserved gravemarks his last resting place, about100 yards north of the Drownplace, and overlooking the sceneof the tragedy. A marble gravestone set in a red sandstone basemarks the spot. Unfortunatelyit has been knocked over and badly fractured so that it is not easyto piece it together, but it readssubstantially thus: "Alfred Frederick Turner, son of ThomasTurner. Died Feb. LS54. Aged

An Avalanche of Wheat

The New York Independentpublishes an article with Ihistitle which presents the surprising situation in which we arelikely soon to find ourselves. Allthrough the war months the FoodVdministratioii through theirvarious agencies all over the country, have urged the appeal, "SaveWheat. Save it in every possibleway and to every possible extent !"

Now, very soon, thev will be

shouting from the housetops, andfrom the billboards all over theland, "Eat wheat! Eat it in soups.use it in Hour, use it in every pos-

sible wav."

With the confident assurancethat the war would last at leasta year longer anyway, and that allEurope would be dependent onVmerican wheat to save it fromstarvation, and that the favorableissue of the war depended onwheat, the government guaranteed to the farmer a price of $'2

a bushel for all the wheat he couldraise up to May ItrjO, and furthermore begged him to get right inand strain every nerve to raise

t!5S L

all that he possibly could.In good faith, and with patri-

otic devotion, (he farmer has sethimself to the task, and the assur-ance is that we will have the big-

gest crop in all history for 191!l.The 11HS crop was a banner one.but the indications are that the

one will far outrun it andwill amount to one billion twohundred and iiily million bushels.Th'.1 home consumption next yearwill probably not run to morethan 550 million, leaving a sur-plus of i00 million. This !00

million bushels, or more, the gov-einn- u

i.t will have to take over ata bushel, or will have to guar-

antee the sale of, at that price.Of course there will still be the

European market. This will aiotdisappear by any means but it willdeteriorate very materially inprice. With Hie removal of allembargoes, and the recovery ofships in large numbers, the storesof wheal which have been pilingup in Australia, the Argentine,India and elsewhere, will be avail-able and will be for sale in theEuropean markets at a fair price

say one dollar it bushel. Ameri-can wheat of course would have tomeet this competition and sell atthe same price. This would meanthat Uncle Sam would have tosell his (i00 million bushels ofwheat in Europe for one dollar abushel, which had cost him twodollars on the home farm, andtwo dollars p. ml a half, or over de-

livered or a loss of nearly abillion dollars. Furthermore, ifour government is sidling wheatin Europe for one dollar, will ourAmerican people be willing to buytheir flour on a basis of .50wheat?

Various remedies have been sug-

gested, but none of them escapesthe difficulty; they only postponeand, in the end, aggravate it. Thebest authorities declare that thereis no satisfactory solution. Thegovernment is simply "in thehole," and will have to stand theloss and charge it up to the costof the war. If things had gone asevery one predicted, and the warhad lasted another year or two.we would have needed every bush-

el of that wheat, as well as mil-

lions of tons of other supplies andmunitions, and would have sacri-ficed hundreds of thousands ofAmerican lives as well. We arevery fortunate to have escaped soeasily. It is a war insurancepremium against an abnormalrisk; we have escaped the disast-er, we should not complain at thecost of insurance.

Whiriington, of Kiiliilioo, linnworked out ii labor saving devicein the form of u sled for harvesting pines. 1 he sled consists ofa crate idiout Ki inches high, Itniltonto two limners of ordinary twohy four. In order to permit thesled In slide het ween llio rows ofpineapples the runners lire not setparallel hut sire set so that theyconverge toward the front end of(he frame. The runners are threeami a half feet long, set 15 incitesapart in the front and IS inchesin the rear. The crate which ishuill directly onto the runnershas a capacity of about six bagsof pineapples. It is also narrow-er in front than in the rear.

In harvesting pines one man issent ahead to pick the fruit andlay it down. Another man fol-

lows with the sled drawn by amule ami is aide to up thefruit and carry it to Ihe side ofthe lield as rapidly as the manon ahead can pick the fruit. Mr.Whittingtoii's foreman claimsthat hy using the sled in this manner Iwo men can do the work ofthree. It is much easier thanpacking the pines out of the fieldin hags, and as the men do notgel tired quickly they are able todo more work.

couiiATxa iLAr nrafiThe use of trap crops is recom-- '

mended by the Failed States De-- i

partment of Agriculture as thebest method of controlling thegreen plant Vice which frequentlyauses serious injury to cultivated

crops, particularly those of thegarden. A study of this pest tolearn more of ils life history andmethods of control, made by Mr.Thomas II. Jones of the depart- -

meiit of agriculture and reportedin Mnlletin dsn, showed that thebugs are tpiiie resistant to contact

insecticides. While it is possibleto use mixtures to kill the adultsit is necessary 1o have them sostrong that the plants upon whichthey are used are apt to be injured.

The fact that the adults congregate on turnip and mustard leadsthe entomologists to recommendthat these crops be used to attractthe bugs. AVhen these trap cropare covered with the insects theymay be distroyed easily by spraying Ihe crop with a very strongcontact insecticide.

According to specialists of theU. S. Department of Agriculture,in preparing hogs to be slaughter-ed a fast of 2 to :(' hours, idenlvof water, careful handling, anilrest before slaughter are nil im-

portant in securing meat in thebest condition for use, either freshor for curing purposes. Food inthe stomach decomposes veryrapidly after slaughter, and wherethe dressing is slow the gasesgenerated often atl'ect the Uavorof Ihe meat. Water should begiven freely up to the time ofslaughter, as it keeps the tempera-ture normal. It is highly import-An- t

that the animal be not excitedin any way snlliciently to raise thetemperature of the bod v. If theanimal becomes heated it is betterto allow it to rest overnight beforekilling than to risk spoiling themeat. It is also essential that thehog be carefully handled so asnot to hrilise its body.

INFL UENZAA STATEMENT FROM THE TER-

RITORIAL BOARD OF HEALTH

This disease is assumed to be caus-

ed by a small bacillus which is con-

stantly associated with the disease.Influenza occurs sporadically, in ep-

idemics, and in great pandemics suchas the recent, and in many placespresent, worldwide outbreak.

The period of inculcation, whichis the length of time from the initialexposure until the first developmentof the disease occurs, is usually from48 to 72 hours or longer.

8YMPT0MSInfluenza, or Grip, is an acute in-

fectious disease characterized byever, by catarrhal irritation of any

or all of the mucous tracts especiallythe respiratory, by muscular pains,pains in the back and In the extremities, and severe headache. The attack may begin with a chill, anotherway of onset is by extreme and sudden prostration. Mental depressionIs also a frequent symptom. Thereis always more or less fever. Slightat times and again very high. Morefrequently it does not exceed 103degrees F. which usually prevailsfor three days and then subsides tonormal temperature. It is just atthis point when the patient is be-

ginning to recover from the debilitating effect of the disease that heshould carefully avoid exposure tofurther infection.

TREATMENTThe treatment of the majority of

cases is simple. At the onset of thedisease one should go home at onceand go to bed. Call in a physicianand follow his directions. The con-

clusion of the case is generally favor-able where the patient goes to bedat. once or at least houses himself,for he is almost sure to recover infour or five days. Do not attemptto fight through the disease withoutlosing a day's time from your busi-

ness for you only open the way tosevere pneumonic complications andextreme prostration. The most seri-ous complication of this disease ispneumonia. It is often invited byexposure during convalescence or inan attempt by the patient to fightout the disease wihout giving up. Amost important fact to be remember-ed in this connection is the tendencyof influenza to develop latent diseaseinto active disease.

MEANS OF TRANSMISSIONInfluenza is transmitted directly

from person to person, being highlycontagious In its early stages. tThebacillus is found in the secretions ofthe nose, throat and respiratory tractbut outside of the body it does notmultiply, has a very feeble resistanceand Boon dies out. One of the modesof transmission is droplet infectiondirected from one person to another,within a radius of a few feet, by theinfected person sneezing or coughingthereby setting up a direct exchangeof the secretions of the nose andthroat. The common drinking cup,the roller towel, handkerchiefs, pipes,toys, glass tumblers, spoons, or otherobjects recently mouthed are alsoexcellent agents in the transmissionof this disease. We should all, there-fore, carefully and persistently avoidsneezing and coughing openly Inclose proximity to those around us.If compelled to cough or sneezemask the nose and mouth with yourhandkerchief during the attack.

We should religiously refrain fromthe use of the common drinking cupor the use of other objects contami-nated with fresh secretions by others.

GO HOME AND GO TO BEDEach individual at the onset of the

disease should go home at once andto bed; this is not only for his ownbenefit but for the benefit of others.By so doing he eliminae3 the menacehe is to his business associates andfriends and benefits them as well asthe community.

By this voluntary isolation at homeand remaining in bed during thefebrile state of the disease the patientnot only Insures his recovery but heprotects others from Infection. Thisone measure would very largely di-

minish the prevalence of influenzaas well as common colds.DON'T BE AFRAID OF FRESH AIR

See that your rooms and dwellingsare always well ventilated. Let inthe pure, fresh air. It will not harmyou it will do you good. Plenty offresh air, rest, and exercise will re-

sist the onset of disease.Education in prophylaxis is of great

importance and this article is intendedto promote such. The public can as-

sist materially in subduing an epi-

demic of this disease by following themeasures outlined herein.

nent solution of Hie profflem, andwould make a local provision fora local need.

Mr. Parley, being railed on asto the proper way of going abouttliis special levy matter, repliedlliat it would have to be authori-zed by the legislature and wouldnot take effect, of course, untilnext year. It was an easy matterto impose a special levy, but thatsort of thing is never popularwith Ihe tax payer, liaise therate and there is a howl from thepublic. The tax-paye- r meets theraise by reducing valuations andlhat results again in a shortageof money for public purposes. Theunfortunate tax assessor is be-

tween two fires the demand formoderate taxes on the one hand,and plenty of money in the treas-ury on the other.

Mr. Wixluird thought that withan aggregate valuation on the is-

land of, say twenty million dol

are en

THE GARDEN ISLAND, TUESDAY, FEB. 11, 1919

lars, the levy that would be need-

ed for the Mahelona hospitalwould be so small that no onewould feel it. Anyway it was aninstitution that simply must besupported, and this seemed thebest way to do it. Of course therewould be people who would "kick"but that couldn't be helped.

Mr. lirandt said that the im-

mediate question, so far as thesupervisors were concerned, wasmoney to meet immediate require-ments. Whatever provision mightbe made by legislature, it wouldnot be available till next year;some provision would have to bemade for the meantime. Of coursethe present board of supervisorscould not make provision for any-thing beyond their present term ofoffice, but he would suggest thatthey make an appropriation of$1,000 a month for the currenthalf year, up to the end of Jan-uary. A resolution to this effectwas finally passed after somefurther discussion.

There was some discussion as towhat agency should hold thefunds raised by this special levy,in case that plan should be adopt

ed. Should it be the Hoard ofHealth, the Board of Supervisors,or the trustees of the hospital?The majority opinion seemed tobe that the supervisors shouldhold and dispose the same, just asthey did other funds for the bene-

fit of the county.A comprehensive resolution was

finally framed and moved by Mr.Brandt, urging the Legislature tomake provision for the equipmentand support of the Mahelona Hos-

pital by a special tax levy on theCounty of Kauai. This was unan-imously passed.

It was suggested that the trus-tees of the Mahelona hospitalshould support this request byforwarding a similar resolution tothe Legislature to be presentedat the same time.

After some further discussionin regard to a special request tothe Legislature for an' allowanceof ",000 toward teachers' cottag-es at Lihue, ami a considerationof the problem of the parking fa-

cilities at the Nawiliwili landing,in regard to which no definite de-

cision was arrived at, the meetingadjourned.

Hawaiian Not A .

Dead Language

The Hawaiian newspaper, theKukoa, publishes a sworn state-ment of circulation for each week-

ly issue during 1018, which givesan average of about fiOOO copies.

It will be a surprise to a greatmany to learn that any exclusive-ly Hawaiian paper has so large a

circulation. The idea is common-ly current that the Hawaiian lan-

guage is practically a dead lan-guad-

that what Hawaiiansguage; that what HawaiiansEnglish, and that it is only amatter of sentiment or affectationto use the language at all.

This is very largely the miscon-ception o1 the haole who cannotspeak the language himself, andwho perhaps lives in Honolulu,where he does not meet those whouse the language.

Theoretically, all young Ha-

waiians understand English andcan use it after a fashion, when

of

they have to, but after all Ha-

waiian is the mother tongue, the

iL

language in which they think, andin which they talk too, when theyget a chance. Start a conversa-tion anywhere with a Hawaiian,and you can watch him steer hisway more or less anxiously amongthe pit-fall- s of that intricate andirregular language, English; itis more or less of a strain for anyforeigner. Then suddenly, andwithout any warning, changeoverinto Hawaiian, and watch hisface light up with joy as thoughhe had found a long lost friend;and you know that you have mov-ed up leagues into the friendlyregard of that man.

The fiOOO people who read theKuokoa can more or less readoiher papers, in English, but ifyou have anything to say to theHawaiians, especially anythingthat reaches down to the lowerdepths, to the springs of emotionor action, say it to them in Ha-

waiian. The language of theirchildhood, the language of home,the language that 'ell from the

Enforced conservation of lumber and cargo .space consequent on

the war has led to u great changeand a very substantial economyin the mailer of packing.

Where before the war boxes orcases were generally used, involv-ing vast quantities of lumber, bur-lap packing has now largely su-

perseded it with a very large consequent economy. During theyear l!Ms, it is reported on tneauthority of the war department,the saving ell'ected by the changein the shipment of clothing andequipment of the American Expeditionary Forces, amounted to theenormous sum of nearly 52 mil-

lion dollars. The greater part ofthis savine was in freight, cases,with their waste room and theirunyielding corners and angles.taking a great deal more spacethan bales; tonnage is generallyreckoned bv space and not bvweight.

There vas also a large savingin material. Lumber, especiallyat any distance from the mill isvery expensive, and when manu-

factured into boxes or cases thereclamation value is very small;old boxes are little better than somuch firewood. The reclamationvalue of burlap on the other handis very high. This is evidentfrom the fact that the burlap iscut the right size to make sandhags.
