In our opinion the commission

postpone the date of Hawaii's
admission as a state This may be
done most effectively by deciding
against territorial form of govern

direction of statehood. Such
decision would impose upon the
commissioners the task OF devisip @
some form of government withr ,ut
precedent in our politics, but lack
OF precedent is not a conc lusive

There's laughing and shouting, and

A New War Cry.

Remember the Maine!" is an excel

For those who are talking Of war;
AS good as the watchwords the
patriots used
In days that have now gone before
Inspiriting always are cries like to
this,
And they help many on to the
right,
And thousands nerved up by a
slogan that's brave
Plunge gallantly into the fight.
But ladies who've bank accounts
fortunate folkl-
Take care, lest your balance you
cramp;
And when you are drawing your
checks don't forget
But always "Remember the Stamp"
