PREFACE TO THE FUNDAMENTAL
LAW OF HAWAII.

PREFACE TO THE FUNDAMENTAL
LAW OF HAWAII.
Congress has expressly enacted a law
organizing Hawaii into a Territory,
and extended the provisions of the
United States Constitution TO the Ter
ritory
In a restricted sense, therefore, the
United States Constitution and the Or
ganic ACT constitute Hawaifs funda-
mental law; but the Organic Act
specifically re-enacts the great body Of
pre-existing Hawaiian statute law.
which was based upon the several Ha-
waiian Constitutions and organic laws.
A large proportion of the law gov
erning real estate, property and per-
sonal rights in Hawaii being based up
on these early constitutions and laws;
and precedents, decisions and court
practice having grown out of them, 1t
is necessary to consult them In order
to have a comprehensive understand
ing of existing Hawaiian law. They
are nearly all published, however, in
books now out of print, and in scattered
volumes, inaccessible to many, and in
conveniently located for all. In fact,
not even pracficing lawyers in Hawaii
can, except at considerable ioss Of time.
place their hands on the laws ano con-
stitutions necessary for the study and
decision of practical questions con-
tinually being presented to them.
Under these circumstances it is be-
lieved that the public interest requires
the republication in convenient refer
<ence form Of what may be called 'the
fundamental law of Hawaii" To meet
this requirement the following con-
stitutions, laws and documents have
been com9iled under the common title
OF 1.-The Fundamental Law of Hawaii
viz:
I. The first Constitution Of Kane
hazneha III. 1910, including the pre-
viosasIy issued Bill of Rights.
e The first laws of Hawaii enacted
under KameAameha III, Qs33-1842),
published together in 1912.
8. The law creating and principles
guiding the Land Commission.
4. The second Constitution Of Ka-
III 1852

The laws of 1912 are not ''fundamen-

throw strong light upon the origin
and development of much of the pres

Only few Of the laws, constitutions

Unequal Feet

.The question of which foot to fit is
N important one to us" said sales
woman. 1T may seem strange to you
,ut il is rarely that we do not expert
nee some trouble in fitting one foot,
while the other is easily covered. A
,opular belief obtains that the left foot
f every person is the hardest to fit,
nd. consequently. many people al
lays try a shoe on that foot first. IL
IS not true. however, according to my
observation, that there is any infiexi-
lie rule as to which foot to try first.
