To TRAIN
THE HANDS
Rabbit Wants the Views
OF Teachers on Man.
ual Work.

A circular letter has been sent on
by Superintendent Of Public Instruc
ton Rabbit to the school teacher!
of Honolulu to get their views upor
the subject of manual training in thu
schools. a number of letters have beer
received in reply, also, but according
to the secretary, Miss Daisy Smith
| who speaks for Superintendent Babbitt
during his absence on Maui the Super
intendent is not ready to give ouJ
| either the letter or the replies until the
| full sense of the teachers upon the
project has been secured.
| The matter is understood to have
| come up, however, upon an offer made
| by the trustees of the manual training
school in Palama to put that institu-
ton at the service Of the teachers in
take a course in manual training, to
the end that the teachers might then
take classes from their own schools to
the training schools and. in turn, i'm
par Tie hIiO"ISdSS IhSy idu
gained to the youngsters.
1t was to get the views of the public
school teachers on this plan that Su-
perintendent Rabbit sent out his cir
cular letter. The matter of manual
training has of late begun to attract
the attention of educators more and
more. 1t has been felt, by many lead
ers of educa tional thought, that there
was too much attention given to mere
book learning in the schools in proper
ton to the amount of training given
for the practical actualities of life. And
IN addition to that, the close policy
of the labor unions in the matter of
permitting the taking of apprentices
has made it imperatively necessary
that the small men and women who
are coming on should have access to
a freer training in crafts that would
help them to get living. All the boys
can not be lawyers and doctors, nor

{, manual training department at La
and a teacher of manual
training at the Normal School. But
that is all. The present idea is to ex-
tend the teaching, possibly, to some
thing like the proportions it has at
tanned on the mainland, where, in the
larger cities at least, the manual
training course, adapted to girls or
boys, is open to all pupils.
No educator will dispute the useful
ness of the STEP but on the other hand
there is the consideration that the pub
lie school teachers of Hawaii are not
too well paid as they are, and are
pretty hard worked for what they get.
1t will be interesting, in view of both
sides of the question. to note how the
teachers will view what is a very evil
dent step to the advantage of the chill
dren, while it may bear hardly upon
themselves.

For Attending a Dinner, Going to
Theater, Receiving a Gift.
Some curious evidence was recently
given in case which turned on So
licitors charge, one witness testifying
that the man of law had remarked
that "winks would have to be paid
for" says Stray Stories.
That some very curious items ere
found occasionally in a solicitors bill
of costs was amply borne out by
legal gentleman whom a representative
Of this paper recently consulted on the
subject.
"A managing clerk who was once in
my employment" began the man Of
law, made such favorable impress
sion on client that one day the lat
ter showed his appreciation of my
clerks efforts on his behalf by incOn-
tinently taking off valuable diamond
pin he was wearing and presenting it
to him.
'That unconscionable clerk Of mine
actually made charge for receiving it,
as follows:
ITO attending you: Long and sp>
cial interview, when you presented me
with your diamond pin. 1925
"A certain firm of solicitors, with Of
nces not many hundred yards from
where we are sitting now. were con-
Quoting q case for a very impecunious
client who was laying claim to large
sum Of money.
Thanks to his legal advisers, he
eventually obtained possession of the
amount, but in the meantime he was
practically supported by his solicitors.
When their bill was presented it was
q study. But the champion item was
this:
ITO attending you when you re-
ouested the loan Of cents, in order
to pay your omnibus fare to Hamp.
stead, where you were to meet a rela-
tive, $1.65; to advance, 4 cents
Here is a pendant to the story Of
the greedy clerk, the grateful client
and the diamond pin. It is absolute
ly incredible, but at the same time alb
solutely true. It concerns another
grateful client, who was so overjoyed
at winning a case that he invited his
solicitor to a most gorgeous dinner to
celebrate the victory.
1.-The food, the wines, the cigars and
other concomitants were Of the finest
and most expensive kinds, and most
enjoyable dinner was followed by a
box at q theater.
However, all through the festivities
the man of law kept keen eye on his
business interests, for in his bill there
subsequently appeared the amazing
items:
"'To attending you at dinner. S1.65;
to attending you at theater, $1.65.'
History does not record what the
grateful client said when he perused
the bill"
