BAD FIRE IN A.
LUMBER PILE

Fire broke out in Allen & Robinson g
lumber yard yesterday afternoon at
about clock, but owing to the eff
fcient work of the fire department and
the Matson tug Intrepid, the blaze was
confined to one corner and a two-story
corrugated iron building in which the
Waterman and his family lived. The
lumber on hand represented between
$4,000 and $4,000 valuation including
buildings in the yard, but the damage
may amount to less than $4,000.
Jack Kappa and his family occupied
living quarters in the second story,
reached by an outside stairway on the
harbor side. The building is on the
edge of the seawall and just mauka
of the old coral structure which was
used up to half a century ago as hall
in which state balls and levees were
given by the king and in which many
important functions in honor of visit
ing representatives of foreign countries
were held. The lumber which was
abaze was in the corner formed by
the Junction of these two buildings and
this made it practicable to hold the fire
in one place.
The Waterman Is family had some
friends visiting them and they had just
sat down to a half-luau, the table be-
ing decorated with ti-leaves. Kepaha-
KIM, relative of Kappa Is wife, went
outside and to Chief Thurston he stated
later that he found fire burning in
the woodpile closest to the house. He
sent in an alarm. By the time the
fire department was on the way the
blaze had invaded the house and the
family had little time to get their be-
longings out. In fact, most of their
stuff was burned or ruined by water.

Easter Facts.

The observance OF Easter was not
Instituted until some 800 years after
the death of Christ. The name was
taken from the ancient Anglo-Saxon
goddess Of spring. 0stern. or Eastre.
whose festival was celebrated about
the time OF the Christian Easter. No
celebration was arranged by the jew
day Of the month. Immediately follow
ing the vernal equinox. which was the
day on which the old Jewish feast Of
the Passover was celebrated. the Jew
ish Christians celebrated, the death Of
Christ. to them the paschal lamb.
Christ having died. according 20 their
chronology. on the date Of the ceie-
bration OF the Jewish Passover. The
celebration OF the Jewish Christians
was therefore for the death AMI not

dren are actually sent to the hare's
nest in search Of eggs. Mannhardt
goes still further, saying that the hare
is reputed to be fire and soul bringer
and that children are supposed to be
procured from the nests. 1t would
seem. however. that the stork has
largely usurped this function. which
some persons will consider fortunate in
view Of the immense number of eggs
laid by the hare.
The hare myth has penetrated also
to England. and it is written: I'm

young men of the parish can catch a
hare and bring 1t to the parson before

Monday (the moon day., he is bound to
give them a calf's head. 100 eggs and
a groat, the calf's head being probably
survival of the worship Of Baal or
the SIM as the golden calf"
The hare myth is Of comparative re-
cent adoption in this country. Not un-
til the early sixties did the Presbyte-
.ians take note of the day. And New
England was the last section Of our
country to bend or unbend--in the d.
rection Of the Easter celebration.
So whether your Easter egg be laid
by hen or hare is determined wholly
upon what creed you profess. If you
are doughty Scotchman or his de-
scendant. a blue Presbyterian. your
Easter egg was doubtless laid BY a
barnyard hen In the round of her daily
household duties and bought at the
corner grocery, for there is no record

Since the tragedy, Mrs. Duden has

Why We Succeed

Then these men in conference work
out the campaigns of Our clients. Meth
DDS, plans and copy-all the problems of
selling and advertising-arc all decided
here.
Each brings to bear wealth of exper-
fence. Each one contributes ideas. And
they do not finish until the campaign ap-
pears to be irresistible.
That is why we succeed. That is why
we have grown, through the growth OF
our clients, to our present enormous pro-
portions.
Thus we make one dollar, often, do
the work of ten. Thus we develop, for
every client, all of his possibilities. -
Back of these men we employ more
than 200 people, each one o. them skilled
in some department of advertising.

The Many-Man Power

We employ on Our Copy Staff the ablest
men we know We have picked them
out, in the course of years, by the bril-
liant results we have seen them accom-
plish.
No one else pays for such talent what
we pay. So we attract here the very best
in the field.
Then, in this vortex of advertising
this school of myriad experiences
these men multiply their powers.
Yet we never permit any one of these
men to work out campaign alone. There
is too much at sta re.
One man can't know all the pitfalls.
One man has limited knowledge, limited
ideas and experience. And no one man
can average human nature.
