Editor Gazette - Quite a little

Woodson has been in close touch

and G A Minor have been urged to

1t is difficult matter to induce
men to assume the responsibility

these men preferred to let some
one else shoulder the burden, but
after being importuned by large
number of citizens, consented to
become candidates.

A LIBERAL OFFER.
Its Effect Upon the Customer to Whom

this story Of some commercial friends
of his:
A customer who bought in small
way from the wholesalers and whose
credit was not Of the sort known as

chased $500 bill Of goods, paying
$1,000 in cash and giving his note for
the remaining $500.
After the transaction had been closed
and the paper and currency had chang

"Now. after deal of that size It is
customary to give purchaser pres

"A pair of suspenders. eh. Say. quit
fooling. really mean it. expect you
to do something in acknowledgment Of

The salesman went to the manager
with the problem. and the manager
said:
"Well If he feels that way about it
we might encourage him bit. Wen
do something that ought to please him
greatly. Give him back his $500 note.
Make him present of his paper That
will make him a cash customer and
raise his credit and save him money
besides"
The salesman went back, pleased to
be the bearer of such joyful tidings of
liberality in business.
"Well. sir" he said, "we've arranged
about that present. all right. Here"
with flourish. ''is your note. We give
1t back to you"
The customer did not seem enthusi-
astic. Instead, without looking at the
note he asked:
'Is it indorsed:'
NO" said the salesman in astonish-
ment.

WHERE LOCAL BOYS
GET GOOD TRAINING

Editor Advertiser: [ have read with
great interest the letter of Bishop Res
tariek with regard to a successful school
at the other side of this island, and
while endorsing the sentiments ex-
pressed, / would like also to call at
tention to other education institutions
nearer home that deserve mention for
similar laudabie work and results.
Twice during the past four months
within my knowledge, have Hawaiian
parents endeavored TO secure the en-
trance of their offspring into the Girls
Industrial School. and when criticism
was offered owing to its being school
where detention was compulsory they
justified their purpose by the statement
that girls received a more thorough
training in this, than they could obtain
in any free school of the Territory, for
the actual life work before them.
We all know of the industrial work
carried on at the kamehameha Schools
with their splendid euipment and en-
dowment, yet to my mind they lack in
essentials for successful training in
that considerable force of hired help
is doing work that should be apportion-
ed to the scholars in rotation.
There is still another institution of
learning that looms up in my mind as
on a right plane for self help-the
only one of its kind so far as I know
in the Territory-whie is carrying on
its work without appealing to outside
assistance.
Aliiolani College at Kaimuki, al
though small, is doing work which is
well worthy of receiving encourage
ment and support from those who take
an interest in true education.
In addition to an excellent currie-
ulum which aims at thoroughness in
the elementary branches of learning the
domestic work of the school is done
by the boys. All the vegetables re-
quired for kitchen or table are grown
on the school grounds. Tomatoes, pep,
pers, pohas, potatoes, carrots, lettuce,
cabbage and some others have come
under my personal observation.
1t is an inspiring sight to pass along
the Waialae road between four and
FIVE of any afternoon and see the boys
at work, everyone evidently interested
in his garden and working for the COM
mon good Work of this kind begets
a spirit of loyalty among the boys
the spirit that makes itself felt IN
everything they do-the secret of their
success in ball games against teams
much heavier and drawn from much
larger institutions-th vim with which
they enter into every public spirited
undertaking, as evidenced by their
float in the Floral Parade last week.
Yet all this work is carried on quiet
ly and with very limited means. Low
as the school fees are, few of the board
ers can afford to pay them in full; in
some deserving cases / am told board
and tuition are given entirely free. ~
The conditions so created, and the
problems they presented, no doubt had
their share in determinging combi-
nation of class and agricultural train
ing that to the eye of layman is, as
before stated, an inspiring sight.
To anyone aetuated with a desire to
assist a worthy. cause, | would recom-
mend visit to this institution.

NEW OLAA AS
TOBACCO LAND
CONTINUED from Page one.)

1t was soon realized that sugar cane
could only be raised on small portion
of that tract, and though great many
had confidence that DR.. Russell would
be able to float loan for the purpose
of starting a new sugar plantation, yet
they eventually found that this was i'm
possible and finally abandoned their
holdings.
Now I have no doubt, but that to-
bacco can be proftably raised on a
large portion of that tract; it consists
of about 10000 acres, of which at least
5000 to 10000 acres would be suitable
for tobacco culture.
ssSome few years ago number OF
the Galicians at the 22nd mile raised
small quantity of tobacco, and the
sample was, 1 believe, sent by R. D.
Junkin to Fitzpatrick, the tobacco
dealer
1T appears, however, that the guam
tity raised was insufficient to properly
cure the tobacco, hence these people
became discouraged and left for the
mainland. This was at an elevation
of about $500 feet.
II have seen some of the tobacco
which Mr.. .Junkin showed me and, com
pairing it with the tobacco raised by
the experiment station in Hamakua, |
have no doubt but that the quality will
command a good market, if properly
introduced. 1t appears to be mainly
wrapper leaf, the kind which commands
the highest price, of very fine texture,
and elastic with very fine ribs, although
the leaf was not as large as the Hama
kua leaf, which is however mainly a
question of the variety planted.
q Now in Hamakua about 1000
pounds are raised per acre, and at only
an average return of fifty cents per
pound. it will easily be seen that five
with family of children. in other
words it is the ideal small farmers
crop. not hard to cultivate.
Now as most of the people are lg-
norant of the way in which tobacco
must be dried and cured, it seems to
me that it would be the best kind of
an investment for the Territory to
make an appropriation to establish an
Experiment Station on that tract, which
need not be on a very elaborate scale,
inducing perhaps a number of the peo-
pie on the tract at the present time to
plant selected seed of various kinds,
say an aggregate of five to six acres,
teach them how TO cultivate it, pick
and dry it and. what IS most important,
how TO properly cure It

MARINE
REPLACE CRANE
WITH A BOOM
kukui's UnWieldy Derrick May
Be Put on Lighthouse
Wharf.

There is considerable likelihood that
the big derrick or crane on the forward
deck of the Lighthouse tender Kukui
viii be removed and replaced by a
boom, such as IN use on nearly all
freight steamers in Hawaiian waters.
Waterfront critics regard the tender s
crane as not only unwieidy for SO small
vessel, but particularly dangerous in
the local waters. The Inter Island
steamers use booms which are of ample
strength and size to handle nearly all
business which they are called upon to
tackle.
II the crane is removed from the Ku-
kui S deck it may be erected on dock
or wharf to be erected especially for
the lighthouse service. On or near this
wharf will be erected storehouse and
workshop where repairs may be made
to buoys, etc. The crane will then come
in quite handy not only for the light
house service but for vessels of other
branches of the Federal government.
