Haiti's LEGION of Honor.

1t is not generally known that the
famous order of the Legion of Honor
was adopted at Haiti in 1S40. When
Soulouque became emperor under the
name of Faustin l., he instituted an
order in imitation Of that which had
been established by Napoleon in 1902.
Statues, ribbons and insignia were pre-
cisely identical, and since the sover-
eign of Haiti distributed his honors to
all and sundry with lavish hand the
French government was considerably
embarrassed. The death Of Soulouque
ended the difficulty.-Paris Gaulois.

Also A Short Spiel
On Teamwork
In Schools

Characterized every minute of the
play by the hardest kind of fighting,
the championship game yesterday az
tcrnoon between the socker football
teams of Oahu College and Kameha-
mcha Schools will go Gown in inter
lchoastic sporting history as one OF
the most keenly fought contests that
has ever been pulled off on Il local
pridiron. The game meant much To
both teams and they went at 1T with
the do-or-die determination. Every
man worried hard on each team, but
the honor fell 10 Mckenzie OF the
Kams to score the only goal, thereby
winning the game and the champion
ship for his school.
After the first and only score was
made, there were but little odds on
either team. The ball vacillated back
and forth over the long stretch OF
the Makiki field. First the lads from
Punahou College, anxious to retrieve
their lost laurels, would dribble the
ball down in front of their oppon-
cnts' goal, only &c have 1t booted far
out of danger by the trusty fullbacks
or goal-tender; then the Kams would
as straightway work the pigskin
down in front of the college boys
goal, but the result was always the
same. 1t was kicked out of danger
once the huskies with the yellow
stripes around their shirts came
within an ace of scoring, and 1t was
only the wonderful headlong dive OF
goal-tender PuaOi almost the length
of the goal posts, that stopped the
ball In its shoot between the sticks

cial boss of the contest. Mr.. Ander-
son is the coach of the winning team,
and it is largely through his efforts
that Il attained the degree Of perfec-
ton II now has, but he did not allow
any faint of favoritism to come into
his decisions on this account.
Lack OF concerted teamwork
seems To he the most lamentable fea-
ture Of all the school games here,
and it was apparent in yesterdays
contest to marked degree. The
schools and colleges in the States are
famous for their teamwork. The men
there practice and practice, and then
practice some more, and all the time
possible, in order that every man may
know Just what every other man Is
going to dc, and how he is going to
do it. College teams on the Coast
and all over the United States many,
many times win great games against
superior individual players simply
because they have that beautiful art
of teamwork developed to degree
where 1t becomes second nature.
That's the Keynote of winning ag-
Gregatlon--work together--play as @
unit; not each man for individual
glory. More concerning this team
work proposition will be said in
these columns at later date.

day was as follows:
