YANKEE DOODLE AS
 SACRED MUSIC

Few boys and girls are not familiar with Yankee Doodle" But how many even grown ups - know that it is one of the oldest tunes in existence? Here are some interesting facts about it. It probably originated in the Ro- man Catholic church about the year 1900. When played very slowly on a pipe organ, the strain, it is said, shows a solemnity and majesty which makes it easy to believe that it first served as a chant Several hundred years later the people of Holland adopted the tune for a harvest song, for which they composed new lines and introduced for the first time the word Yankee" Dur ing the great naval war of the six teenth century, the English under Ad- mral Drake caught the tune. using mocking words against the Dutchmen, who were characterized as Yankees" '" Thus the word came to mean a shreWd. keen, unprinciplcd fellow. Holland was glad to give up the tune and turn it over to the English By them it was sung to an endless variation of words. one day Oliver Cromwell. while riding To battle wore huge ostrich feather attached to his hat by band of heavy silk "maccaron" cord.

SOCCER LEAGUE MEETING
IS VERY ENTHUSIASTIC
Five Teams Are Represented at Annual Season
Opening, Officers Elected and
Grounds Discussed.

That the local soccer players are
eager for the season to open and anx-
ious to get to work at the football was
clearly evidenced last night by the
crowded state of the Thistle Club
rooms, at the annual season opening
meeting of the Hawaiian Association
Football League.
There were representatives of five
teams present-the Diamond Heads,
Punahous, Male Ilimas, Rapid Transit
and Y. M. C. A. The first business
was the election of officers, and the
following were elected: President,
Robert Anderson; vice president, J. H.
Fiddes; secretary, A. H. Bailey; treas
urer, James Mcconnell; and manager,
Sam Chillingworth. The secretary's
address is care Theo. H. Davies & Co.
Mr.. Anderson was not present, so
Mr.. Fiddes took the chair and called
for a general discussion of, and sug-
gestiOns for, the coming season. The
chief matter to be discussed was that
of a ground Dr. Hand stated that he
had taken a look at the Boys Field
ground on Liliha street and thought
that it would be just the place if it
were rolled and the bumps taken out.
81 have seen the managers of the
ground,' said DR.. Hand, "and have
spoken to them on the subject, and
they stated to me that they were quite
willing that the league should have the
use of the ground, dressing rooms and
plunge, if they would roll the field into
shape. This, of course, is merely
suggestion on my part, but knew that
this question would come up, so I took
upon myself to go down there and look
things over. I would not care to say
positively that the ground is all right,
and 7 would like committee to be
appointed to inspect it on behalf of the
league and satisfy themselves whether
it he the place to use or not. -
The ball park was then suggested as
possible ground, but it was stated
by several members that the baseball
league trustees would not rent the
ground for football, as they believed

AND
DAVIES AGAIN

The electric kids are going to have
another chance at the Britishers this
afternoon. Having taken one defeat
they have been shouting for another
chance and, nothing loath, the Davies
team has consented to meet them on
Aala Park at clock.
This will be the second game of a
series of three to be played for the
commercial championship (how's that?)
of Honolulu. The sparklets will take
out special brand of fuse wire and
prepare for an overload to last all the
afternoon. they may get short circuited
once or twice but they won It shut down
on that account and will keep the
boosters balancing up with the trans.
formers on all high tension circuits.
The Davies aggregation has new
yell and large consignment, just ar
rived, of extra double plated enthu-
siasm and the game is bound to be
a hummer of the largest and thickest
variety.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-10-10

! that the game would damage the field.
Then somebody very wisely said that
their estimate of damage was taken
from a wild west show that was held
there, and that if it were pointed out
to them that soccer football shoes do
no more harm than regulation base
ball spikes, the trustees might consent
to rent the grounds to the soccer
league.
1t was finally decided to appoint
committee to go into the matter OF
ground thoroughly and to report at the
next meeting, which will be held with
in the next ten days. A first effort
will be made to get the ball park, and,
that failing, other places will be given
attention.
The Rapid Transit had a representa-
tive at the meeting, and as he was
obliged to leave early, DR.. Hand spoke
for the Rapid Transit boys and stated
that they were very anxious to come
into the league, but they would have
to make the condition that they
should be always scheduled to appear
i'll the first game of the afternoon, in
order that they could get away in time
to 90 to work. There was no official
notice taken of the matter, as the dis
eussion was informal, but Mr.. Fiddes
stated unofficially that he was sure
that that would be easily arranged.
It seems that the carline boys have
got together a very classy team and
there are some Scottish players among
them who have appeared on the field
here in former years and made a name
for themselves as expert kickers.
The meeting was a great success in
that the enthusiasm was very marked
There was true interest shown in the
matters discussed and it was apparent
that the players are up to keen pitch
and want the season to start as soon
as may be. All the teams will have
first-class elevens to put on the field,
and, with five of them, not only will
the individual games be closely contest
ed, but there will doubtless be close
and exciting finish for the champion
ship.

the Americans who participated in the

he assured him of the support of that

would be advised to hold off the date

HAOLE CREW IS
WORKING HARD
Kenneth Brown Has Husky Crew
to Man White Horse in the
y Hawaiian Regatta.

Every evening about five o'clock the
water in front of the beach fronting
fhe Seaside Hotel and the cottages be-
vend is alive with canoes darting along,
as the husky young crews train and
practise for the big Hawaiian regatta
that is to be held there when the fleet
Is heEe-
The cottagers are taking a keen in
terest in one particular canoe which
is to be manned entirely by young haole
bows. 1t is the White Horse and Ken
meth Brown is the captain. If you
happen down to the beach when these
boys are practising and you wish to
hail them or encourage them in their
work with a little roofing, just sing
out for Kenneth and three of the crew
will turn their heads.
There is Kenneth Brown, the cap
tain; Kenneth Atkinson, Kenneth
Winter. "Zen" Gilman, Vicente Ge-
moves and Messrs. ROthwell and Center,
Junior This aggregation of paddlers
is out for victory and they go hard
at it every night. The Hawaiian boys
are not being left behind in the prac-
Using game, however, and they turn
ont in force every evening.
The HanakeOki and the Alabama are
ont in front of the beach every night
and the A. Prince Cupid IS racer, is be-
ting worked busily by the Kamehameha
Aquatics who viii put out fine crew
TO race the Alabama. The two last
named canoes will have grownup crews
while the paddlers of the White Horse
and Hanakeoki are all under age.
There will be surf board competi-
tions as well as canoe races and the
committee in charge has hit on a meth
cd for making the surf races feasible.
The competitors will be started from
in front of the beach at a convenient
point for surfing and will then swim
out and round flags anchored beyond
the surf. They will then ride IN on
their boards and the first one in will
win the prize.
The course for the canoe races will
be from a point nearly opposite the
Moana Hotel thence northwestward
along the beach to flags anchored about
half a mile from the starting point and
return.
There will of course, be many other
entries besides the four mentioned. Spe-
cial interest attaches to those mention
ed. however, as the crews are very anx-
ious to win and have been working
with this end in view.
The date for the event is not set yet
but "when the fleet comes in - it will
be settled on at once and, supposing
that mysterious event comes off in the
near future. the regatta will take place
next Saturday afternoon.
Attractive prizes will be given both
in cups and cash for the winners and
a large list of entries is assured. The
canoe races will be even more attrac,
tive when padded on the edge of the
surf than they were on the smooth
waters of the harbor.

IMPROVED CURTAIN FRONTS.

Considering this kind OF poultry
house from a financial point of view 1t
is cheaper than the old type of house,
because windows can be replaced in
part by cheap duck curtains. In addi-
ton, the scratching shed is abol-
ished, the roosting pen and scratching
shed being combined, thus economic
ing in space and lumber. The curtain
front house remains dry and cheerful
in all sorts of weather. 1t is true that
it is a cold house in winter when the
curtains are open during the day, but
fowls, when properly hardened, can
endure a considerable degree of cold
without injury, and this is especially
true if they are in a cold atmosphere
during the daytime when they are
obliged to scratch vigorously for their
grain.

conducted faces in a southerly direc-
ton. and is built in sections twenty
