climbed to the base or even to the top
OF the mount that stands as sentinel

die Of the day yesterday, the tempera-
ture was no less than seven degrees
lower, even at the forester's cottage.
To those who have been used to rid
ing, driving or walking through the
cool and fragrant forest of eucalyptus
trees, the work Of clearing of the gov
eminent land by Japanese for expert
mental purposes seems absolute van

the fact that the portions of Tantalus
now strewn with the fallen trunks
OF thousands Of trees and the shoulder
ing remains Of heaps upon hDaps Of
small branches and leaves. will one day
be clothed in the green of more useful
vegetation. Tantalus will never be the

the eucalyptus trees on Tantalus are
doing their work very rapidly and, In a

decided to consider the loan Of $4,000
in connection with its work along the
line Of appropriations. This will be the
very last thing on the program Of the
extra session: One of the Hawaiian
members said this morning: I'VE in
tend to ignore the message Of Acting
Governor Cooper on this matter. This
document has been laid on the table
for future reference and there It will
stay. One Of the committees Of the
House asked the Attorney General for
an opinion on the matter Of the loan.
This official saw fit to give his opin-
ion out for publication at the same time
he handed 1t to the committee. Then
the message came. All we wanted was
Information for the use Of the commit
tee. To give 1t out to newspaper and
then for the Acting Governor to send
us a message were both unnecessary
and presumptous proceedings"
