A very satisfactory meeting of the

rooms of the Kilohana Art League last
evening.
d. Howard Hitchcock of the poster

also suggested a system of return

Mrs. Noonan of the building commit

built in places where they would not
take up room from the dancing section.

and parties desiring to reserve box

HARD LAW To ENFORCE
CONTINUED from Page One.)

CONTINUED from Page One.)
iZing the esta blishment OF such school
'Sec. 21O. Every private school shall
be subject to the supervision of the
department. 1t shall be the duty of
the department to require that teach
ers of private schools be persons OF
good moral character; and that the
premises of such schools comply with
the rules and regulations of the depart
ment, as from time to time promul-
gated with regard to sanitary condi-
lions and hygiene
Sec. 211. The English language
shall be the medium and basis of in
struction in all public and private
schools; provided, that where it is de-
sired that another language shall be
taught in addition to the English Ian
guage such instruction may be author
lied by the department, either by its
rules, the curriculum of, the school, or
by direct order in any particular in
stance. Any schools that shall not con-
form to TIE provisions of this section
shall not be recognized by the depart
ment."
The next section says: THE attend
ance of all children between six and
fifteen years Of age, both inclusive, at
either public or private school is
obligatory and goes on to define the
obligation of parents, guardians, ETC.,
in that regard with certain exceptions.
1t has an important bearing on Sec.
211's provision respecting recognition
of private schools by the department,
as a child attending none but an un-
recognized private school would be LA
BILE for truancy. This point came out
in the discussion as will be seen.

nese child went to a public school first
and then to a Japanese school, he did
not see what the Board could do
about it.
Mrs. Dowsett insisted that the law
required all private schools to be es-
tablished according to it's provisions
Mr.. Rabbit and Mr.. Al both con-
tended that the law, originally passed
in 1896, could not be made retroactive
to control schools established before
its passage. Mr.. Harrington said it
was re-enacted in 1905 and Mr. Rabbit
promised to ask the Attorney General
for an opinion on the law.
Mrs. Dowsett said the Japanese
schools We're private and amenable to
the law. 1t was not the children who
established them.
Mr.. Harrington would be willing to
go into the question as to the charac-
ter of teachers, etc.
Mr.. Rabbit said the Japanese at
tend the public schools from 9 to 2
O'Clock, the prescribed hours, and he
could not see that the Board had any
authority to follow them afterward.
IF we take the technical ground that
these are private schools within the
meaning of the law" the Superinten-
dent added. I'VE are up against a lot
of trouble"
Mrs. Dowsett remarked that If the
past board ignored the law there was
no reason why this board should do so.
,''As matter of fact" Mr.. Babbitt
answered. II don't see any power In
this law to close a school,"
1t was agreed without formal vote
to submit the whole matter to the At
torney General for an opinion.

of Public Instruction, Honolulu.
Dear Sir: We are in receipt of your
esteemed favor of the End inst, re-
garding the need of increased accom-
mediation for the children eligible to
attend school here.
In reply we would state that we
cannot recognize our responsibility, es-
pecially as the parents or children, who
are employees of this plantation, as
well as the large majority who have
no children, have with few exceptions
all paid their personal taxes, and We
believe the amount collected adequate
to provide instruction for the children
here.

THE DISCUSSION.

You are supposed to have supervi-
sion over such schools?" Mr., Dodge
inquired when japanese private schools
were undergoing remark.
Just what degree of supervision,
Mr.. Babbitt replied. ..it is hard to say.
1t is clear that English is established
as the medium of instruction. AS a
matter of fact, one school found not
using English as the basis of instruc-
ton was closed. Sanitation of schools
is under the Board of Health, which
is working in harmony with this de-
partment. Only the other day two Off
GERS of the Board Of Health came here
to notify us that sanitary defects in a
certain school must be repaired"
Mrs. Dowsett stated that she had
been informed that the Board of Edu-
cation had always been very lax in
carrying out the law relating to super
vision over private schools
What about Kamehameha and Pu-
nahou?" Mr.. Harrington asked. Per
haps they made their applications to
the Board years ago. Punahou is under
a charter anyway. Is there any lax
which requires the interference of this
Board?''
Mr.. Rabbit did not think it advisa-
BILE to look for trouble. There was no
money to pay the expenses of legal
controversies
Mrs Dowsett asked what if the Leg
tslature should inquire about the
Boards supervision of private schools.
Mr.. Babhitt, for information, said ap-
plications were received from Mr. Fetz
for his new school, from ate
school in Hilo and school opened by
Mrs. Baker in Kona.
Mr.. All thought they could not dis
turb formerly established shoots, but
should enforce the law requiring APP
plfcations of all new private schools.
Mrs. Dowsett believed it was up to
the department to take up the law and
act accordingly.
Mr.. Rabbit remarked that it was I'M
fortunate that there was no penalty in
the law, so that if any breaches were
discovered nothing could be done about
it,
Mr.. Harrington, quoting from the law,
made some remarks on it's scope.
Mr.. Babbitt asked how they We're go
ing to get after Kamehameha. Those
who started it were no longer here. To
whom then We're they to look for an
application. The Board had no rules
on the matter of sanitation, all that
existed being those of the Board of
Health.
Mr.. Dodge thought the whole thing |
not a very proper subject for the Board |
to handle.
Mr.. Babbitt supposed it was In |
tended for schools taught by govern |
esses- He could hardly see how it
could be enforced with regard to the
larger private schools 1
Mrs. Dowsett referred to a CONVEX
sation she had held with the Governor
on the subject. Some general remarks /
Mr. Rabbit showing he was
aware of the Governors views.
Mr.. Harrington considered the intent |
OF the law was to ensure the atten-
dance of all children of school age at
some authorized school Those who
were not in such a school came under
the law of truancy. Where a Japa-

has been made to Director Conreid of the

Of the Metropolitan Opera and Real Estate
Company, owners Of the Metropolitan cpera

N. Dodd, secretary Of the directors OF the
Metropolitan Opera and Real Estate Com
pany:
Heinrich Conreid, esq.,:
Dear Sir-The directors of the Metropoli-
tan Opera and Real Estate Company con-
slider that the performance of 'Salome' is
objectional and detrimental to the best
terests of the Metropolitan Opera House.
They therefore, protest against any repe-
tition: of this opera. BY order.
tSisnedo FRANK N. DODD, See'y."
A Biblical Story.
"Salome'' is based on Oscar Wilde's
dramatic variant Of the biblical story of be-
heading of John the Baptist, by Herod' 8
order to satisfy the caprice of Salome.
The presentation last Tuesday night at q
benefit performance for Director Conreid
was the sensation of the opera season in
New York. and excited a great amount OF
comment and criticism, mostly directed at
the character of the text of the opera, the
Dance of the Seven Veils,' performed by
Salome before Herod, and the kissing of the
lips Of the severed head of John the Bap-
fist by SaloAe.
Opera Company, lessee, under the Metro
politan Opera and Real Estate Company,
will meet at pm. today to consider the
protest.
