SOY MAY BE SENT
TO OTHER ISLANDS
Board Of Health Decides Possible
.8aciiIi are Killed by Process
Of Manufacture.

Reading the list OF ingredients Of
Japanese soy one is reminded of the
three witches connection of delicacies
in Shakespeare's Macbeth
There is a soy factory in Honolulu
conducted by a learned japanese,
whose name fails to appear in the APP
pended report of the city sanitary Off
Ger. The report was read before the
Board of Health at yesterdays meeting
and IL was decided that the manufac-
turer could ship his goods to the other
islands inasmuch as all possibility of
the existence of bacilli in the concoc-
ton was done away with by the
thorough boiling process. DIR. Pratt's
report is as follows:
Complying with your request. / today
examined the soy factory at the juno
ton of Punchbowl street and Pauoa
road. The ingredients used are now
kept and mixed in a room about 10x12,
while the boiling is done just outside
this room, in the open air. The in
gradients of soy are: Barley, beans,
honey, salt, white sugar and water.
The sugar, honey, salt and water are
mixed in certain proportions and sub
/ jected to boiling for four hours. This
mixture is then strained and put into
old wine barrels.
| The beans, barley and some water
are boiled for five hours and then put
| into barrels. When enough of these
/ two mixtures has been made they are
mixed together and this compound
| boiled for three hours. After this boil
/ ing is finished il is strained and i'm
mediately put into old wine barrels,
which are at once corked. IL is then
ready for shipment.
The wine barrels these people are us
/ ing came from w. G. Peacock az Co.
Ltd. The barley, honey, salt and white
sugar were purchased from II. Hackfeld
& Co. The beans were imported from
Japan. The barrels were washed out
several times with hot water.
The building now being used for the
manufacture of soy is too small and is
so filled up that it cannot be properly
cleaned. The proprietor says that ii
allowed to make and ship soy to the
other islands, he will erect a suitable
building with cement floor and traI
drain to cesspool and conform to any
requirement of the Board of Health
He says that the present building is
only used temporarily. 1t is also his in.
tention and he has already made ar.
rangements to have the beans grown
here. instead of importing them from
Japan. He says he is unable at present
to secure any beans of Island growth
He is now boiling his mixtures in larg,
galvanized iron wash tubs.

COTTAGE ON WHEELS.
Blocked Up King Street and I'm
peded Traffic.

\ novel sight was witnessed on King
street yesterday afternoon beyond the
Oahu Railway depot. \ cottage was
being moved TO Kalihi, and when Dow
sets place was reached, the house
took up the entire street space. The big
steam roller was the motive power, and
in some manner it damned the cot
taEe up against a telephone pole.
The street soon became filed with
tra.ncaTs, 'busses, teams and vehicles
Of al kinds, and the blockade was to
all Intents a permanent one. until a
fence near Dowsett lane was taken
down and the vehicles were allowed
to use the new thoroughfare. Before
the cottage could resume its journey.
a telephone pole or two had to be lifted
out.

SENDING THE FIRST MESSAGE
The Privilege Will be SOLD at Z! ublic
Auction.

Auction.
The sale of the privilege Of sending
the first message over the Inter-Island
Telegraph Companys lines promises TO
afford considerable excitement and div
ersion. At first il was intended TO in
vite sealed bids; but this scheme has
been abandoned in favor of a public
auction. Mr.. Morgan will knock down
the enviable right TO the highest bidder
on the first day OF next month. Time
and place will be announced later. The
sale may take place at Mr.. Morgan's
auction rooms, or some outdoor loca-
ton may be preferred. The proceeds OF
the sale will go to some charity, TO be
named by the successful bidder.
1t is bound to be big event, and to
draw a large crowd. The installation
of the plant is of itself an important
matter, and the sending of the first
message a distinction for which there
will be keen rivalry. The winner OF
the prize is sure to come in for a deal
of free advertising in Mainland papers
as well as in local ones, and the man
or firm will be looked upon as in some
sense the representative business man
of the Islands. Some persons yet liv-
ing can remember the day when Knox
the Halter" paid $4,000 for the first
seat at the Jenny Lind concerts in New
York, and what a tremendous boom II
gave his modest business. The Local
aspirants for a similar advance will
now presumably begin to count their
dollars and calculate whether or nc
they can successfully compete with the
old established business houses.

SOMETHING OF A PROBLEM.
How 10 Use Memorial Day to the best
Advantage for the Younger
Children.

The problem of using Memorial day
to the best advantage for the younger
children is not always an easy one.
1t is n school holiday, and the time
Of children out of school in spring
Is precious. And yet, says the Boston
Congregationalist, it is not well 10
let it be merely holiday, with no
emphasis upon the purpose for which
II is set apart. On the other hand,
the public exercises are often out Of
reach or too long drawn out for chill
dren. The uses of the day should ut
once be appropriate and joyful. Self
devotion for the nations good Is not
thing to mourn over, but an occa-
sion for happy recollection. II the
home possesses flag, its display Mt
half-mast will serve to fix attention
on the lesson of the time. Pictures
of Washington, Lincoln or others Of
the national heroes may be decorated.
The thought of family prayers will
naturally center about gratitude for
self-sacrifice. Apart from thes, or
similar observances. it Is not usually
wise to hold the minds of children
down to one topic, however impor-
tant. II the memorial thought finds
Judgment, il will not be wholly for
gotten all day long. and the more OF
the outdoor world in its springtime
glory the children can enjoy the more
it will be associated with happiness
and beauty.

Uniaue Memorial Service.

Five little villages in southern New
Jersey unite annually in unique OBJ
servance of Memorial day. They are
all near enough to the sea to be dom
mated by the thought Of 1t. So It is
not strange, says Harper's Bazaar, that
when they come to think Of the men
who have died for their country their
minds turn to the vast grave Mt their
very doors. There are only 500 in
habitants, oil told, in these five VII
lagos, but the idea OF decorating the
great sea-grave does not appall them.
When Memorial day comes around,
the children of the neighborhood,
carrying flags and garlands and
crowned with flowers, go to Q pier
which runs out into the ocean, where,
after marching up and down and sing
ing patriotic songs, they throw their
flowers and garlands into the waves,
while bugle sounds and salute is
fired. This ceremony Of decorating
the common grave Of those who have
been lost at sea not only can be made
beautiful and impressive one. but
has also the significance which would
appeal to people.

This Is writ by
Polly and Jack Kerr
In memory Of
Grand Pa

"Oh, Jack! it's just lovely! And-oh
-oh-l've got something!" and Polly,
her bright face growing sweetly solemn,
stepped to the old bureau and opened
her most precious possession - an old
box which held her peculiar treasures.
Here's four of mothers hairpins,"
she said, solemnly. 'I've saved 'em,
but they'll be just the thing to fas-
ten down the headstone-bctter than
bits of wood"
The children could hardly sleep from
excitement. Bright and early they
were about, stopping moment to gaze
rapturously on 1.-THE headstone,," and
to water the precious rosebush, which
any florist would have admired, SO per-
feet were the buds and roses. Then
Jack started out to black boots and
attend to one or two furnaces, while
Polly washed dishes and tidied rooms
for three different families, receiving
five cents from each. At noon they
were ready to start, the roses care
fully wrapped within the headstone,
lest the sun wilt them, the flags carried
by Polly.
1t was a long, long walk to Ever
greens; but the children's rent was
due in two days, and they dared not
spend money on car fare. On they
trudged, the thought of the honor to
be done to grandpa keeping Polly's
tired feet going. But before they had
accomplished n quarter of the dis
lance Jack caught sight of great ex-
press cart coming up the hill. Hold
on, there's q fellow know. He'll take
us in-he's first-class! Mr.. B." he
called, "can you give us n lift?"
"Certainly," and the good-natured
expressman drew up for the children.
"Going to Evergreens? Why, I'm taxi
ing basket of plants there-1'll take
you right along"
And so, much earlier than they ex-
rected, Jack and Polly had decorated"
the old soldiers grave. The brown
paper was carefully pinned down with
the long wire hairpins. Polly kissing
each one before she used it-how often
"mother" had used them to fasten up
the long brown hair OF which the chil+
dren were so proud! The flags were
