JUDGE HIGHTON
AT PROBLEM CLUB

Judge Highton delivered an interest
ing address in the rooms Of the Y. NJ.
c. A. last evening before a good-sized
audience. He spoke of Christ as a
pIete sacrifice all through his life and
introduced into the world an influence
which was shaping all things for the
best. The judge appealed to each in
turn of life even in being polite. He
held that those who engaged in good
wars made a sacrifice, such as the war
the Japanese were wagins at present,
fought
Mr.. Brown thought that the Judges
address would make an excellent ser
mon. He spoke further of the sacri-
fee mothers make for their children.
Mr.. Toellner spoke of the negative
side of sacrifice such as standing out
and alone from others when duty de-
manded it.
MT Law SAID the urSt part OF Judge
Highton's address was excellent, but
when he added war to the sacred
teachings of Christ he was like the COW
which gave a fine pail of milk then
kicked it over. He held that Japan
and Russia should have arbftrated. He
believed the United States was esteem
ed by the world on account of her
cotton plantations, her wheat fields,
her oil wells her steel factories. her
honest labor, rather than by her wars.
He said England's glory was in her
merchant ships covering the bosom of
the ocean and not in her wars
Mr.. Tosh thought one should go to
war if he was sure ne was right
Mr.. Law asked Mr. Tosh how he har-
moniZed such teachings with Christs
request to love your enemies
After Mr.. Webb and others had spo-
ken on sacrifice in the civilitfes of daily
life a vote of thanks was rendered the
Judge for his address.

BUCKEYE CLUBS
NEXT MEETING

The Buckeye Club of Honolulu is a
purely social society organized for the
| purpose of acquaintance and friend
| ship. The next meeting will be held
in the Young Hotel Tuesday evening
March 8. All Ohioans in Honolulu are
| invited to attend.
The Buckeyes" will be interested In
the following account of the origin OF
the name-which has been unearthed
by Mr.. w. A. Bowen in one of his anti
quarian researches:
Some antiquarians have secuted the
idea that Ohio gained it's name of
Buckeye State" from the buckeye
tree, because the tree is so common and
so poor. 1t is not valuable tree, its
wood is not strong and it decays quick
ly; it's fruit is poisonous, suited to
neither man nor beast; it is, in a way,
an ornamental and shade tree, yet a
very dirty one.
The story of the probable origin of
the name is as follows:
On February %, 1910, a State conven-
pose of nominating a candidate for
Governor.
Political excitement ran high. The
delegates from Union county brought
with them a cabin built of buckeye
logs, that wood having been selected,
probably, because it was light, easily
worked and good for nothing else. The
cabin was drawn by a procession of
horses, and the delegates, perched up
on the roof or riding inside, sang a
song composed for the occasion by OF
way Curry, of Marysville, o. 1t ran
like this:
ooh, where, tell me, where,
Was your buckeye cabin made?
Twas built among the merry boys
Who WELD the plough and spade,
Where the log cabins stand
In the bonnie buckeye shade.
Oh. what. tell me what,
Is to be your cabins fate?
Well take it to the capital
And place it there elate.
For a token and a sign
OF the bonnie buckeye State"
In times of political excitement a
clever idea spreads like wiIdfire. The
log cabin was adopted as the sign of
the Harrison campaign, and. whenever
possible, was built of buckeye logs and
draped with buckeyes. The song was
sung everywhere, and of course many
others were written. Most of them
contain some reference to the buckeye.
Tom Corwin was nominated for Gov
ernor by the convention, and forthwith
acclaimed as:
Tom Corwin is a Buckeye boy
Who stands not for the foy."
General Harrison himself was greet
ed with:
'Hurrah for the father of the great
West;
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1904-03-04

For the Buckeye who follows the
plough
The chorus which accompanied him
on many of his campaign trips began:
Come all We jolly Buckeye boys
And listen to my song"
There can be little doubt that it was
Mr.. Curry who really started the idea
and circumstances helped to give it a
wide currency. Besides, buckeye"
as a word is distinctly catching. 1t is
the kind of word that sticks. And it
certainly did stick in that campaign.
Everyone was carrying buckeye
cane; all the girls had to have neck
laces of buckeyes. And the tree, of a
sudden, leaped from obscurity to
sudden and lasting fame

WHATLTT MEANS.

The Industrial Alliance of Portland
Or, has issued brief statement in
answer to the question, What is
Meant by the open shop?'" This
statement presents the case concisely
and lucidly, and is as follows:
First: 1t means that the right
of non union and union men to en-
ployment is equal, else the equality of
right and of opportunity is destroyed
Secondly: 1t means that union
men have no right to coerce employ
ers to discharge non-union men by
Poyc9tting or other measures, taken
70 injure the business of the employer
The principle involved is neces-
sary to the preservation of the civil
liberty guaranteed by the Constitu-
tion and laws.
Grant the power of union men to
prevent non-union men from laboring
and the most offensive tyranny that
ever existed will be established.
1t is now an everyday occurrence
that men who wish to work are re-
fused admission into unions and are
denied the right to work because they
are not union men. If labor union
is permitted to do this, members of
one religious creed may demand the
discharge of workmen of another
creed and deny them the right to
work at all.
The closed shop and the prin-
ciple it represents, not only destroy
civil liberty, but the fabric of human
society and the brotherhood of man.
The Constitution of the United
States is paramount to labor-union
constitution, and under it man has
the right to work without inquiring
into his race, creed, politics or fra
ternal society relations.
We deny no man the right to join
a labor union, but we stand for a
man 5 right to work without belong
ing to union.
"Fraternal organizations for NUT
tual protection are praiseworthy,
provided they do not deny to non
members the rights of man.

cUckoos PLAY SHARP TRICK.
How Indian Birds Escape the Cares
of Mothe rhood.


Of Motherhood.
A recently published book on India
thus tells how the kohl, or Indian
cuckoo, fools the crow and gets its
eggs into the latter's nest, where they
are Matched and the young are reared
by the credulous crows: when
everything is ready and a desirable
nest has been chosen the cock kohl,
conspicuous In his shining black
plumage and crimson eyes, seats him
self on a prominent perch, while the
hen, In modest speckled gray garb,
turks hidden among dense masses Of
neighboring foliage. He then lifts his
voice and shouts aloud, his voice be-
coming more and more insistent with
every repetition Of his call and very
soon attracting the attention of the
owners OF the nest, which rush out to
the attack and chase him away. Now
comes the chance for his wife, who
forthwith slips In TO deposit her egg.
Very of N she does this successful
J before the crows have returned,
but every now and then she Is caught
In the act and driven of like her
husband, uttering volleys of shrill
outcries. The extreme differences be-
tween the plumage Of the cock and
that OF the hen In this case leave no
room for doubt as to the part that
each sex plays in accomplishing their
felonious purpose; that of the male
being clearly to distract attention by
his conspicuous appearance and i'm
psrative cutlery. and that Of the female
to utilize her sober coloring as q
means of lying hidden until she sees
q favorable chance for invading the
coveted nest"
