WATER CARNIVAL
FOR JULY THIRD
Attractive Program Outlined
Last Night Swimming,
Diving and Polo.

Representatives of the Healani and
of the Hotel Baths, met last night and
drew up a tentative program for the
aquatic tournament to take place at
the Baths on the night of July 8. For
the Myrtles, Crozier and Becher were
present, the Healanis being represented
by Walker and Jarrett.
This year there will be no rowing
races at Pearl Harbor and the carnival
will take it's place. The program as
arranged will include swimming races,
diving contests, relay races and wa
ter polo match. One feature of the
program which is altogether new to
Honolulu will be two handicap swim
ming races, one hundred and two hun
dred and twenty yards respectively.
The other swimming races will be of
twenty-five, fifty and seventy-five
yards each.
About the 18th inst, there viii be
series of try-out races for the purpose
of handicapping. In these races the
first four will be eligible for entry in
the carnival races. In trying out in
this way fair handicap can be figured
on. The time of the swimmers will be
taken and the fact that only four of
those contesting in the try-outs can
get in the final race will prevent any
soldering for the handicap.
Preceding the carnival there will be
fireworks in front of the Baths build
ing. An attempt will also be made to
secure the services of the band for the
event.

turnout of kickers.
The personnel of the team chosen is
open to change at all times until the

SpORTLETS

The Diamond Head water polo team,
under the direction of Captain Fish"
Alexander, began their regular prac-
tises last night.
Paul Schmidt is the leader in the
contest for the June high score at the
Hotel Baths shooting gallery, having
marked a target this week for a total
of SO out of a possible ~. To get the
IS prize away from this will require
some good sighting.
Kams VS.. Punahou, Diamond Heads
VS.. St. Louis; this is the schedule at
the baseball park tomorrow. Unless
all dope signs fail the opening game
will be the close one, but the beauty
of Honolulu baseball this season is that
nothing is sure until the last figure
goes up on the score board.
The twenty-five yard swimming race
between Cunha and Oss, which was to
have been pulled off last night to settle
the protest entered by the latter, has
been indefinitely postponed. This re-
suits from over-exertion on the part
of Cunha, who in training for the event
strained his neck and put himself out
of business for the time being.

BOWLING GAME
INTERESTS MANY

Interest in the various contests at
the Hotel Baths is growing as the
scores of the players keep getting bet
ter. There are five different contests
on in the alley, Paul Schmidt leading
in two of them, w. NJ. Bray in two,
with a triple tie in the fifth. The main
contest, for which Silva's Toggery has
hung up a suit of clothes for the win
ner, is for the highest ten score aver
age at ten pins for the month In this
Bray has a considerable lead, his low
est score being 172, with 232 as his
highest. This high score is also the
highest score made, and if not beaten

alley June championship. Young is
second in the high score contest with
231, made the night before Bray set
the mark

SOUIRES DOES
PICTURE STUNT

Bill Squires appeared before an Amer

before a moving picture machine to
show the various exercises which go to
make up the muscle-building work in
which he INDUCES while in training for
fight. He had the services of Jimmy
Britt as a sparring partner, and the
latter drew out some of the strong
points of the challenger for the worlds
heavyweight boxing championship.
There was serious moment in the
first round of the boxing stunt, and
Jim Coffroth, who was acting as mas
ter of ceremonies, had to cut the round
short to avoid any unpleasant ending

brightly, enlivened proceedings by try

with a choppy straight left to the jaw.
Britt staggered from the effect of the
blow, but came back fighting, as is his
won't and the round was cut short to
avoid a display of i'll feeling.
There were three rounds of this box
ing, two of which were of one minute
duration and the other of one minute
and fifteen seconds. In all these
Squires was under double wraps, but
he showed enough to prove that he is
the master of all the arts of the finished
boxer and that there is nothing of Of

familiar. He is a straight, clean hit

The loafing habit is a menace to
the boys of both country and city.
Every wise mother must be on her
guard against 1t for her sons. The
grocery store furnishes only too easy
a lure for village boys. and hundreds
of idlers frequent the pubic squares
OF the great cities. There is no ac-
counting for the seeming leisure OF
the army of grown-up loafers. Most
Of them are able-bodied although
some are anemic or badly nourished.
But the sad truth probably is that a
doting mother began the useless ca
reer Of each Of them. and that hard
working wife continues the in
dulgence. 1t is not easy for moth
err to invent occupations for her lit
tie son. The daughter may early be
taught to use the broom, duster and
needle Then the doll Is an unfail-
ing and exacting task-mistress. She
always needs new clothes, But work
for boyish hands and feet is less
abundant. The supply of family err
rands is small The coal-hod has
supplanted the wood-pile. In the end
the boy sees through the device OF
trumped-up work, and runs away
from It. Happy the mother who dis
covers in her boys some taste or tai
lent The passion of the carpenter
for tools, OF the craftsman for pencil
and paper, or of the gardener for
growing things ought to be hailed as
safeguard against the loating dis
ease. says Youths Companion. II no
occupation of the usual boyish sort |
can be contrived. the boy may better
be put to bread-maklng or sweeping |
than given over to idleness. There
is scarcely boy to whom a paint pot
and brushes will not appeal, and
fence and blinds and steps win bear
fresh coats of paint at frequent inter-
walls Every device is worth consid-
ering II it will erect one new bar
rier against the loafer's habit-the
destroyer of every manly virtue, from
industry to self-respect.
