ble-but at least that long, besides Sat
turday afternoons and Sundays.
1t may be laid down as an axiom
that a man who has such a rest Will
do more work during the remainder
of the year than he will if he works
all the time.
The Records advice to every Homo
lulu business man is-take a vacation
yourself and give every one of your
clerks a vacation; and let the clerks
pay go on during the vacation. Some
of them cannot afford to rest if the pay
is stopped. You will more than get the
money back by the increased efficiency
of the clerk afterwards. A bow that
is bent all the time loses it's spring
Now is the best time to lay out
schedule and allow them TO 60 by
turns. so that the routine will not be
interfered with, because business is
dull at this season anyway and the
climate calls for a change more than
does the more bracing winter and
spring

GRAMMAR VS.. NATIONALITY.

An Englishman, writing to the Adj
vertiser notes that the usage of this
paper is to speak of the United States
in the singular. why" he asks,
should you say the United States is,
when the authority of the gram
marians is on the side of the phrase
the United States are?'"
The purist would, If governed by
the English grammar alone, choose the
plural form, thus following the usage
of the authors OF the Federal Consti-
tuition. But as was pointed out by
John w. Foster, not long ago, all
American authorities on international
law use the singular form, such as has
been employed since the Civil War by
those who insist that the United States
should be described as a nation-a sim
gle entity-and not as a confederacy,
or a plurality of States. 1t is a case
where politics has amended grammar.

Almost any man will admit that a
little vacation now and then is a good
thing, but very few ever act as though
they believed it.
A stock impression is that Honolulu
business men take life in an easy, trop-
zeal fashion. This impression has
been created by the writer's of books
on Hawaii who get their knowledge
of the subject through a few weeks
lolling on the hotel verandas, a surf
ride at Waikiki, a trip to Waialua on
the railroad, a ride to the pail, posi-

HAWAIIAN GUN
CLUB TO ORGANIZE

The Honolulu Gun Club will meet at
| the Hawaiian Hotel this evening at
o'clock for the purpose of organizing
and electing officers. Great interest has
been shown in this new sporting or
ganization, and already over eighty
| names have been secured for the mem
bership roll. Jess Woods of Whitman
& Co. and Jas. E. Fullerton are the
promoters and have done good work in
getting the organization started. In
order that there may be no delay, once
the club is organized, five traps and
several thousand clay pigeons have
been ordered from the coast.

INSANE ASYLUM SITE.

The removal of the insane asylum
from it's present site has long been
advocated chiefly on the ground that
the country about it is building up
and that ii is best to keep insane peo-
pie in some place where they are not
likely to be disturbed by busy neigh
bors
High ground mauka of the present
asylum and belonging to the govern
ment has been well thought of. Salu-
brious, out-of-the-way, affording a
soothing view and not good for much
else. this upland site has had the
preference for an asylum tract of many
citizens. Whether leases are in the
way of its immediate use we do not
know.
As to the acreage next to Allan Her
bert's place at Kalihi-the property
lately acquired by the Young Hotel
there are both advantages and objec-
lions. The locality is healthful, save
for the makai hog ranches, the soil is
fertile and the site is covered with
trees. But the nearness of the Achi
tract and its growing population must
be thought of. Before many years
have passed the asylum, If built there,
may be hemmed in by busy settle
ment, and who knows how soon Homo
luluis harbor will have to take in Ka-
lihi bay. upon which the proposed asy-
Ium tract fronts?
Finally all this KaIihi land is adapted
to class OF agriculture which the
government ought to encourage. Pris-
ons and asylums should not occupy
tiliable soil in a country where every
acre OF it counts; especially when the
government owns plenty of land. en-
dowed with good building sites, which
is not wanted for the purposes OF farm
ing and is quite accessible and con-
venient for public purposes.

THE PRICE OF AUTOS.

The question raised in the Worids
Work, Can Afford to Own an Auto
mobile?" is one that any man of mod
crate but assured means may answer
afirmatively if he is given time to wait
until the price of automobiles becomes
normal.
New things have a special price on
their newness. In the early seventies
a breech-loading shotgun of the best
mako cost $3.50. Years ago the price
fell to s75 and $50. A thoroughly good
double-barreled breech-loading shotgun
can be had now for s35 and fair one
for s12.
Seven years ago a good bicycle cost
800. Fourteen years ago a Columbia
stood at $50. Today fair bicycle can
be had for s25 and a first-rate one for
$50.
In 1870 a sewing machine sold for
$780, A better one can be bought today
for $50.
In 1875 a silver watch, Elgin or Wal
mann DlONtUlGlll, COSl Cow Ii 40OOJ anu
or many years past, a good, service |
lble Elgin or Waltham watch with |
ilver or gold-plated case, has been

hat sum.
Parlor organs, books, pianos, car

ave had their early day of steep prices
nd their latter day of normal prices.

The troubles of the wireless service
in these islands are not, as many think,
due to mismanagement-at least not
preferentially. Marconi's whole system
it's prospectus and interest in it among
the worlds governments is lapsing. To
be sure it sometimes does well-but so
do carrier pigeons. What is wanted
and needed. is a service that is de-
pendable. that will not respond to ev-
cry caprice of the atmosphere. This
has never been obtained through Mar
conf elsewhere any more than here.

EDUCATION IN HAWAII.

Whenever teachers get together We
hear about the good which is being
done in these Islands by uplifting the
inferior. races through association with
better ones ia the democracy Of the
common school; but nothing is ever
said about the injury done to civilized
white children by bringing them up in
a school system where the inferior
races, always in the majority, are
made their daily companions.
When twenty-five white children go
to school with seventy-five Chinese
Japanese and PoIynesian children-not
to go further in the race classification
two things happen: The inferior
breeds are improved and uplifted by
association with the whites but the
whites are brought to a lower level by
association with their interiors. There
is a general averaging by which the
lower cI. IS rises and the upper class
falls. Now the question is: is 1t de-
sira Bile that the upper class should fall?
Does not the country need to cultivate
the best there is in its rising white
generation, which is the only genera
ton likely to stay here? In course Of
time the Aoiatics will die off or return |
home; the Polynesians are a disap- |
pearing race; upon the shoulders OF
the whites will rest the burdens Of Ha-
wallis future. Is it wise to endow the
whites with inferior traits for the sake
acf.a mil
lation the benefit of better ones?
We should like to hear a full and
candid discussion OF the school ques-
ton in Hawaii. What one generally
hears is the stereotyped talk, the ritual
of fetch worship. Certain things are
agreed upon without thought; are in
herited from conditions widely different
from these; are spoken of as matters
of course. But new occasions teach
new duties" and time makes ancient
good uncouth.' Is it not wise to set
aside old formulas and beliefs and find
out, in the school system as in other =
things, what methods promise the best !
for Hawaii?
