tai telegraphy, telepathy or what you
wish but we know it exists. 1 have
had this feeling once or twice before,
of one of which it is perhaps proper to
speak. 1t was almost two years ago
when Governor Dole informed me that
l was expected to make an inaugural
address. Mr.. Dole said that I must
outline my policy. 1 could have
dropped when he told me that and I
told him it was all off, that if I had to
deliver an inaugural address 1 would
not be Governor. But you know that
way of his. He just smiled and said
the program would have to be carried
out. When he has the way. he cannot
be stopped and had to prepare the
address. L read it, but I do not re-
member a person who was in that
room. But. anyhow, 1 finally came to
take up the duties of Governor.
THE STUDY OF LEPROSY.
AS L considered the grave RESPONSE
what a great benefit it would be if the
government of the United States would
undertake the study of leprosy. We
have struggled along with the problem.
We have taken care of these unfOrtu-
mates. We have supplied them with
the necessaries of life and some of its
comforts. but We have never been in
a position financially to afford the out
lay for the study of the disease. But
there stood our great, benign country
with a treasury full to overfiowing,
willing to spend millions in the cause
Of humanity whether in war or in
peace. and why not use some of the

When few weeks ago, the sugges-
tion was made that there should be d
chicken show in Honolulu, not a few
pooh-poohed the idea, saying that there
were not enough good birds in the
country to warrant any such under
taking.
The matter was taken in hand by
few enthusiasts and it was not long
before interest in the project grew and
the members of the Hawaiian Poultry
Association were pulling together as
one man to make the suggested ex-
.hibition of feathered stock an accom-
-plished Iact.
A world of hard work was done and
numerous obstacles overcome before
the show was finally whipped into
shape and the result is a poultry show
that would be a credit to any state in
the Union.
The big hall on Merchant street,
formerly the Advertiser office, was Sc
1ected for the site of the exhibition
and it is there that the various entries
are gathered together to the end that
everybody may have a chance to see
what Hawaii can raise in the shape
of poultry and be inspired by the sight
to produce even better.
The show includes chickens and pig
cons and a most satisfactory number
of classes is represented. The prevail
ing divisions of classes are breeding
pens, trios, pairs, cocks, cockerels and
hens.
The prizes consist of: 1st, blue;
End, red; 3rd, pink; 4th, yellow rib
bon, accompanied by a diploma and
signed by the president and secretary
of the Hawaiian Poultry Association.
There are in addition, the follow
ing special premiums, offered by Ho-
.noIulu merchants and others:
