coo or fairly steady growth of liz pei
cent a year This is somewhat less than
the growth OF population for the whole
country. During the last five years there
has been hardly any increase in gifts to
PRESBYTERIAN missions at home. but gifts
TO missions in foreign lands have gone
up by $4,000. Presbyterian missionary
organizations are out of debt. but they
are so through efforts of their own and
NOT because of recent special campaigns.
The unfavorable feature of the figures
just published is the number of minis

hardly any increase at all in the number
of candidates for the ministry or in the

GAME HOGS KILLING
OFF COATS ON OAHU

The game hog is creating havoc
among the wild goats in the Waianae
mountains, according to complaints that
are being brought into town by hunters
visiting that end cf the island. For
merly the goats. while not too nnmer-
Gus, were to be found in the mountains
in numbers sufficient to provide fair
hunting for the sportsmen who went
after them. But Of late they have
been disappearing, and now one may
sometimes wander two or three days
through the hills without getting an
opportunity for single shot.
A local sportsman who went out with
his gun last Sunday came back greatly
Disguised. He says that he did not see
a single live goat, but he did find the
ground in several places simply litter
ed with the carcasses of those that had
fallen victims to the bullets of the
game hog, who simply killed for the
the sake of killing, and killed every
thing that came within range OF his
gun.
The chief idea among the game hog
fraternity seems to be to see who can
get the largest bag and leave the great
est number of carcasses to tester in the
sun. Game is by no means plentiful on
Oahu and the real sportsmen are ex.
pressing much regret over the whole
sale slaughter of about the only animal
of any considerable size that can, even
by stretch of the imagination, be
reekoneds as game.
