Board of Education Listens to Re-
quests and Takes Action
on Some,

The Board of Education met yester-
day afternoon at 2:30 p. m. and con-
| sidered the question of teachers sala-
ries and the manner in which certain
classes of teachers should be scheduled
Mr.. Won Holt questioned the raising of
salaries of teachers who are called in
educational work Specialists and
thought if the raising of salaries was
to be done in individual instances, the
entire question of salaries and the pros
poets for increase should be gone into.
Also the question of difference in
the salaries of principals of schools of
various grades was brought I'D and
discussed at length, Mr.. Won Holt
contending that if principals who had
seen thirteen years school service in
the schools of Hawaii should be rele-
gated to the same salary list as teach
ers or only three or four years expert
ence mere, there should be a change
made.
He discussed the length of service
schedule, and also talked of the differ
a man who had had long experience in
schools was in lower grade than the
one who was of more recent appoint
ment, and receiving a lower salary. he
thought there was room for improve
ment in that direction as well.
Mrs. w. w. Hall brought before the
meeting the question of establishing
as part of the educational work of
the Islands. an agricultural depart
ment, such as exist in most of the
states and territories. 1t was her opln-
ION that for this purposei there was
available in the hands of the Depart-
ment or Agriculture at Washington. the
sum OF $4,000, to enable the depart-
ments of education to give Instruction
in practical agriculture.

matter with Secretary Wilson of the
Agriculture Department. He explained
it was the intention of the secretary
of Agriculture to advise the establish
ing of such a department in Hawaii in
connection with the Experimental Sta
ton, of which Mr.. Maxwell is the direc-
tor. Mr.. Wilson had told him it was his
intention to make request upon Con-
gress for an appropriation for such an
amount to be available for Hawaii.
Porto Rico and possibly the Philippines
group, but certainly for the former
The next question for the Secretary to
decide was the disposition of this sum.
Up to the present time, the funds avail
able under the Hatch act, have been
placed at the disposal of the existing
experimental stations in the various
states and territories. In Louisiana,
Mr.. Maxwell stated, this sum was turn
ed over to the existing agricultural
college station.
In his opinion, therefore, Prof. Max
well felt certain that whenever such a
sum OF money was made available by
Congress, it would not be for the Board
of Education. 1t would have nothing
to do with the amount. He further
stated that it was the intention of Sec
rotary Wilson to make arrangements
with the existing experimental station
IN Honolulu that this fund would be
appropriated. He thought in such a
small country as Hawaii it would be
1nadvisable to establish another ex-
perlmental station. The Secretary's
object is merely to expand the work of
the one now here
Part of the fund he thought would go
to forestry in such portions of Ha-
wall as have been denuded of forests
and portion of the money would be
utilized by Mr.. Wilson in securing spec
ial data on the subject.
Among the routine matters consider
ed by the Board was the consideration

The greatest surprise of the auction
sale was the announcement that the sill
verware was not TO be sold. The royal
silverware was withdrawn, it was whiS-
pered. on account of diplomatic conSid-
erationS." 1t was said that the French
Consul had entered protest against the
sale of the Silverware on account of its
by the French Government, and that ii
would be an insult to the French Gov
eminent to sell il.
When the French Consul was ap-
preached on the matter by an Advertiser
reporter, he laughed heartily said there
was nothing in the yarn, and that he
didn't know that the French Govern
ment had presented the monarchy with
any silverware.
The general understanding is that the
kapiolani Estate had entered a protest
against the sale of the sifverware. AT
any rate. there was some little excite

auction commenced, the auctioneer was

According to rumors, public and
private, the grand jury returned
some indictments for illegal vot'
ing. We are not prepared to say
whether there we're any illegal
votes cast at the late election OF
not. That is a matter for the court
to settle, but we do know that il
is generally understood that some
folks are powerful careless about
casting the elective franchise in
any old box that is convenient.
The little slips upon which the
oaths of challenged voters are
printed brings the matter effect
lively before the grand jury, and
hereafter there is going to be less
complaint of illegal voting.

DUTIES OF HEALTH OFFICER AND AT
TENDING PHYSICIAN.
Whenever a case oil diptheria occurs in
honse. the head of the house or the at
tending physician should report it at
once TO the health authorities. Plain and
distinct notices in the form of plocards,
fhould be placed on the house or premi-
ses where there is case of diptheria,
and children should be kept away from
such houses. Notices should be sent to
all public schools in the neighborheod
where there is dlptheria in any house,
and the pupils should be warned against
visiting or playing about such houses.
When the health officer is notified of
such case OF dyptheria he should go to
the house and see that the necessary pre-
cautions are enforced. lit is his duty to
post placards, to notify schools, to take
charge of the funeral of any one thae
dies of the disease. to see that rooms,
clothing and premises are properly disin-
fected, and to give official certificatef of
recovery and that the person is no longer
apt to spread the disease. When there ir
no health officer the attending physician
should attend to these matters.

NOTICE..
TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN:

TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN:
There seems to be danger Of an cpl
demic of diptheria in our county; in fact
several deaths have already occurred in
the county from laryngeal diptheria or
true Group, which is the most dangerous
form of the disease. The attention Of
physicians and heads of families is call
ed to the law requiring them to report
suspicious cases to the board of health
of the county.
There has been one case of scarlet fe-
yer in Marion, and it has been so man
aged that no other cases have resulted
from it. Diptheria is to great extent
preventable disease, but the health Of
ficers must have the cooperation of the
school boards and head of families. Now
kind friends, this is not trick to extort
money from the treasury of the county,
but it is a solemn note of warning.
Diptheria, that most terrible enemy
and destroyer of child life, that has
made more hearthstones lonesome and
more hearts sad than any other malady;
that has caused lamentations through
out the world, is abroad in the land,
Will you lend us helping hand in our

AS preventive measures keep the
mouth, throat and nose of the child
clean by frequent washing with a solu-
ton of borax, Ia heaping tablespoonful
to pint of hot water. About once a
week fumigate the air passages with bur
ming calomel. Pat a quantity of live
wood Goals in an old pan and set it on
bricks in the center of the room, seat the
children in circle around the pan, and
spread sheet over their heads, then
sprinkle the calomel, a small quantity at
a time, on the Goals; when it.ceases to
smoke, sprinkle on little more calomel
until about half level teaspoonful is
used.
rifles AND REGULATIONS.
l. Persons who have catarrh, or who
are subject to sore throat, or whose
is run down, are especially apt to catch
diptheria. Such persons, therefore, are
particularly interested in securing the
isolation or quarantine of every case of
diptheria, and the .disinfection Of every
thing which has comenin contact with,
or what comes from, such case.
