TOPLESS TREES
FOR PILLARS

The dance floor of the Outrigger
Canoe Club was completed yesterday
afternoon and the energetic members
are getting right down to work on
the roof. Colonel Fred Macfarlane,
Arthur Brown, Joe Gilman, the Seaside
Hotel and the United States Govern
ment have each contributed cocoanut
trees, the tops of which have been
blown off, and these will be cut down
today to be used as columns to support
the lanai roof.
James McCandless paid for the con-
struction of the lanai floor, and his
brother, John McCandless, pays for the
erection of the roof, and a. W. Myer
of the Chambers Drug Co. pays the
matching bill. Other members will
see to it that the bamboo and lumber
are provided.
Everything will be ready for the
dance, feast and regatta next Satur-
day, notwithstanding the fact that the
judges stand drifted away yesterday
morning and a rescue committee had
to 60 out in canoes to bring back the
dereliet from the outer reef.
Both the boys and girls are down in
canoe and surfboard practise. Deem
Der seems like June so far as the num-
Der of people in the surf is concerned.

return to their homes, is one worthy OF
all commentator. The incident points
the moral Of the opportunity which too
many ministers disregard. Such an OPP
portunity is a solemn responsibility,
and DR.. ElwOod's recognition Of the
fact speaks strongly for his apprecia-
ton of the full duty of a minister Of
the gospel. The young man in the case
was a young business man, and the
bride-elect was student at one Of the
local high schools. They thought 1t
would be romantic" to get married
secretly, return to their homes as II
nothing had happened and wait until
the young woman had been graduated
from the high school before disclosing
the secret. There was some opposition
among the parents Of the young people
on account Of the difference in their re-
ligion and especially in view of the
fact that the girl was not yet ont OF
school. DR.. Elwood gave the young
folks a fatherly talk and brought them
to see the mistake they were making.
He pointed out to the girl the duty she
owed her parents, but especially did he
appeal to the young man, showing him
his real duty to the young woman and
how unfair 1t was to make her party
to such an arrangement as was contem-
plated. Fortunately, the young people
viewed the matter in the proper light,
and In the years to come they will IN
all probability thank the minister for
his words Of kindly counsel. The mar
riage might have resulted happily for
all concerned. There was no legal rea-
son why it should not have taken place,
but those who take the thoughtful
view-for there are thousands Of such
marriages every year-cannot but be-
lieve that the minister's advice was
sound, sensible and just. Countless vic
tins of Just such ill-advised unions,
who thought their particular affair was
extremely romantic" at the time,
share this view when too late. There
are those who take the part Of the
young people in these cases, who think
that they are the only ones to consider,
who have a great deal to say about
"hard-hearted parents meddling In
young peoples affairs" and all that.
But the fact remains that in the great
majority Of cases there is nothing
commendable in taking such an impor-
tant step secretly and against the
wishes Of parents who love their chill
dren and wish only for their good. The
circumstances surrounding the joining
Of two young peoples lives cannot be
too impressive. 1t is and should be re-
garded the most serious, step Of their
lives, and parents have every right to
be considered.
