Relative to fence around the lot
Ir. KidwelI said the committee was
gainst having any fence. Further, he
reported that he had called upon the
Board of Supervisors relative to road
matters. particularly to the growth OF
-rass in the streets Nothing had been
lone.
Judge Whitney said the Cantonnier
system is still on the statute books ana
ae believed the clubs should ask the
Board of Supervisors to rejuvinate the
Cantonniers and have the loose stones
and the grass removed.
Mr.. Desky said the citizens would
attend to those features, a yard boy
could remove the weeds in front of
premises in five minutes This was
done in a town in kansas where he
once lived.
Mr.. Campbell endorsed the remarks
pride is characteristic here, that the
average citizen depended upon the gov
eminent for everything after he had
paid his assessment of one dollar as
road tax
Mr.. Guild asked if something could
not be done toward planting trees on
Wilder avenue He thought something
should be done regarding the upkeep OF
- nlanted.
IMPROVEMENT CLUE.
G.. P. Wilder reported that he had
called upon some of the property own
ers on that avenue and had found very
little opposition. All of the owners
are not here at this time and nothing
would be done at present There will
be some difficulty in getting the trees
until after Arbor Day.
Mr. KidwelI took exception to the re
marks by Campbell and Desky-he be-
Iieyed the Government could do better
than residents.
In reply to a question by Mr.. Desky
relative to roads out of Manoa valley
and into other additions, Mr.. Griffiths
said arrangements seemed impossible
for a road through Chamberlain's and
Wallis land. Oahu College trustees are
willing to give their share of land pro
yided the grade is suitable.
There was an informal discussion
relative to the loop road in Manoa val
ley and another that would terminate
at Kamoiliili.
Mr. Keen spoke of the proposed road
from Oahu avenue to Metcalf street
and said Prof. Alexander now had the
matter in charge. This, he said, would
make a better grade than Anterior
street. Mr. Desky said he had just OBJ
tanned by agreement certain land near
College Hills the Walter Wall lot
which he intended to subdivide, and
extend Metcalf street.
Mr.. Kidwell said there might he some
difficulty in that as it would have to
go through a portion of his land.
Mr.. Dillingham; said his interests IN
Manoa valley was the long strip OF land
along the Woodlawn dairy property
He was willing to give a deed to the
strip for the usual 81 consideration.
Mr.. KidweH said he did not want to
be understood as opposing road
through his land-he was perfectly will
ling to give it, but wanted the priv1-
1ege of giving away his land rather
than delegate the privilege to Mr.. Des-
ky. The meeting then adjourned and
the special committee of three met
later at the residence of Justice Frear.
Plans were formulated and the work of
parking the lot will begin today.
