STONES SHOULD
MARK EACH GRAVE
Cemetery Inspector Urges Re-
quirement to That
End.

! A regulation requiring all cemetery
associations to place<a gravestone at
the head of each grave, was suggested
to the Board of Health yesterday. The
suggestion was made by J. Venhuizen,
| Chief Sanitary Officer and Cemetery
Inspector for the board, and grows out
of his experience as inspector where
it is repeated and regular experience
that eoffins and bodies are being con-
| stantly exposed in digging new graves,
because the exact location of the I'D
ones is unknown. The following is his
report and recommendation on the sub
iect submitted at yesterdays meeting
of the Board of Health:
"I beg to suggest that all cemetery
associations be instructed to erect, or
cause to be erected, a headstone at each
grave, providing that articles of in.
corporation do not hinder such action.
A crude cut stone such as is used for
curbing would be sufficient and would
This would alleviate the often occur
rences of digging into old graces. With
the possible exception of Nuuanu, Loeb
View and the japanese Moiliili GENE,
teries there is no record kept of the
exact location of the graves dug and
the headstones erected will not average
more than one to every ten graves.
"There were forty-eight inspections
of graves made and six collins were
exposed in the digging of these
graves"
Other matters reported on by the
Chief Sanitary Inspector were as fol-
lows:
"There were twentyseven COM
plants of nuisances fled, all of which
were Investigated and the nuisances
abated, with the exception of three
where time for repairs was granted.
"There were five recommendations
for hotels, restaurants and lodging
house licenses issued and ninety-eight
persons can lawfully be lodged in the
buildings licensed.
"Sixteen permits to keep swine were
issued and under these permits 631
swine can be kept.
"One arrest for violating regulation
pertaining to garbage, etc, was made.
"Two cases of sick were reported
on and medical attention provided, also
one case of CHAMBERS was Immediately
referred to DR.. Norgaard.
"The matter of poi shops and com
plants of and investigation of Engi-
neers' Camp on Kalia road has been
submitted in a special report.
Provisions are under way to provide
residents on Peters Lane, Kalihi,'
with government water owing to the
cases of infection from use of surface
water.
Construction of extension of Pau
GA road and branch sewer is now well
under way, and progress can also be
on sanitary improvements or
dered at the Kukui street stables. -

THE ART THEATER.

An unusually fine program has been
prepared by the management of the
Art Theater for the Christmas season,
the subjects being especially appro-
pirate to this season. Particular at
tention is called to the film, The Holy
City, giving events in the life of
Christ in and around Jerusalem. An
other picture especially worthy of at
tention is the "Haunted CASTLE a
weird subject with lots of magic and
a wonderful creation. All of the pic
lures are unusually good and the music
al selections are appropriate to the
screen subjects. There is no increase
in the price of admission and the pie
lures will be shown this afternoon.
