MID-PACIFIC
INSTITUTE OPENS

The opening of the new Mid Pacific
Institute buildings in Manoa valley on
Saturday afternoon was a notable oc-
casion and brought together a large
assemblage of visitors. After an invo-
cation by the Rev. w. B. Oleson, the
Rev. Francis w. Damon, president of
the institute, delivered an address Of
welcome. He spoke with enthusiasm
of the institutes work among the
many different races mere and express
sed his qualification at the large at
tendance.
The Rev Doremus Scudder also
laid emphasis on the interracial i'm
portance of the institute as a part Of
Hawaii's educational work. God has
created and ordained Hawaii, he said,
''to be an object lesson of twentieth
century friendship between the East
and the West. Here the children of

Whilst in Manila Schwerin was in
terviewed by the Manila Cablenews,
during the course of which he was
asked whether he had determined up
on any changes in the Pacific Mail
schedule, with respect to Manila. He
replied that he had come to no deci-
sion as yet, but was considering the
matter. He talked at some length of
trade conditions in the Philippine is
lands and expressed his disappoint-
ment that so small a proportion of
the foreign trade of the islands is be-
ing carried on with the United States
and by Americans.
This, Schwerin thinks, is mainly
due to the fact that American mer-
chants are slow to recognize the need
of different methods in trading with
tropical country, or any foreign
, country, in fact. American merchants
are trying to impose their own stan
dards upon foreign customers, with
the result that our foreign trade suf-
| fers heavily, says Schwerin.
AS an example of what he meant,
Schwerin showed the Cablenews re-
preventative a cracker box, such as is
used by American firms for shipping
their products to tropical countries
On opening the box, he called atten-
ton to the fact that strip of tin about
quarter of an inch wide remained
around the top of the box, which serv.
ed as an inpediment on removing the
contents, often breaking them. The
covering provided for the opened box
was also inadequate, and the box it.
self was not impervious to moisture.
Australia and English shippers of the
same product, Schwerin says, provide
perfectly moisture-proof box, with q
top which when removed leaves no
jagged edges, and provides good
covering for the contents.
Schwerin then pointed to a collec
ton of canned goods, and called at
tention to the fact that the foreign
goods all came In small tins, while
the American tins were all of larger
size. This, he said, accounts to a
large extent for the popularity of the
foreign brands. AS another example
of American backwardness Schwerin
pointed out that while Japanese ship
pers of picked goods were using a
small barrel fastened with a special
kind of wire-nail, such as is popular
in foreign countries, the American
shippers were still clinging to the
large barrel, using the iron nails for
fastening. Schwerin has a number of
foreign packed articles with him and
he will try to convince American ship
pers, that the methods and customs of
one country can not always be impos-
ed upon another, even though the
quality of the American products is as
good or superior to the foreign goods.

At the earnest request of ma jority of the contestants in the Graph, ic Trip Contest, the double vote offer that was in effect last week, and closed "Wednesday night will be ex. tended for a few days more. Many of the contestants had promises o1 into the office in time to take ad- vantage of the double vote offer, be- ing so close to the first of the month and for these reasons the contest de- partment deems it advisable to ex- tend this offer so that those promises of subscriptions can be secured.
 The offer will go into effect this morning at S:30 o'clock and will close at S:3O next Saturday Nov. 12.-This extention will be the means of num- Der of contestants getting in the most of their promises, and will give oth- CTS an opportunity to increase their vote standing.
 Another week of good hard work has started in, and the contestants each and every one are showing pro- mise of making 1t record breaker.
 The friends of the contestants now realize the value of these trips to be
 warded in this contest, and are do- ing all possible to assist their favor ite in the race to win them.
 To some it takes life time of work to secure a trip like this and you no doubt know of some in this city who are past the years where they can travel with pleasure. They possibly never had the chance to earn a trip like you will take and if they had they would have worked night and day for the few weeks that 1t is going to take, to be a winner.

TO LET A BIG
 BRIDGE CONTRACT

According to R. P. Allen, of the Arkansas Railroad Commission, also one of the commissioners of the im- proyement district which is to build a free bridge over the Arkansas river to connect Fort Smith and Van Bur- ien, the contract for the construction of the bridge will be let to Kahmann and McMurray, Kansas City bridge contractors, at the meeting to be held Monday, in Fort Smith. Commis- sioner Allen states that the money for the construction of the bridge has been secured, or all that will be necessary until the bonds have been sold. He says no further suits can stop the commissioners now, and any suits filed will merely be for the pur- pose of securing additional time for the operation of the ferry which now plies on the river at Van Buren.
