SCOUT MOVEMENT
IS COMING HERE

MONTEREY, August 22.-Directlv
from this city the American Boy Scout
movement is to be extended to the Ha-
waiian islands.
Through Lieutenant Colonel r. l..
ullard of the Eighth Infantry this
work is to be done.
He leaves for Honolulu early next
month to conduct camp of the Ma
tional Guard, and while there will in
troduce the movement in which he
has become so deeply and effective
ly interested here.
The American Boy Scouts here have
secured new support and many new
instructions, military men who have
been so impressed with the vaue of the
movement that they have consented to
act as instructors of the boys here and
in the neighboring towns.
Among these are Captain Rolph and
Lieutenant Kalde of the Eighth Infan-
try, and Sergeant Majors Frederick
and Koenig, First Sergeant Carruthers
Corporal Yadon and Privates Kavesh
and Bell.
These instructors in addition to
Lieutenant Colonel Bullard, Sergeant
Jaeger and Private Grossman, who
have been interested from the first or
ganization of the American Boy Scouts
of Monterey, will give the boys here
as fine an opportunity for learning
scouting as any boys in the world. All
of these officers and men have had ac-
tual scouting experience in war.
In addition to these the Monterey
Scouts have as an advisor the young
est" scout alive. He is Major Sher-
man, Mexican War Scout, Civil War
Scout, Indian War Scout and peace
scout. He is Sc years old but is one
of the most enthusiastic hackers of the
American Boy Scout movement.

WHAT DOES LIFE HOLD FOR THIS GIRL?

81 would like to have really good
time once in a WHILE" writes a young
girl, but l very seldom do, as l can
not afford to spend much money.
What does life hold for me?"
It's plaintive, this letter, in that
young folks do crave and should
have pleasure, and evidently this girl
has little; plaintive in the smallness
of the world she has unknowingly
created for herself. Rather, she has
shut herself into an exceedingly small,
narrow space, and thinks it is all of
the world, unconscious of the great
joyous universe outside and all around
that might be hers, if she would walk
out into it.
She wants "a really good time,' she
says, but she doesn't specify what is
her idea of a really good time. But
as she is young and full of life, one
can imagine that she would like to go
to dance, wear a pretty frock and
dance every dance on the program;
or be taken to the theater by an ex-
ceedingly nice young man; or be one
of jolly little picnic party. A desire
for all such things Is natural to youth,
and under right conditions, none of
them is harmful. They supply the
pleasure youth Graves and are just as
necessary to healthy, normal life as
certain foods are t the body. The
pity of it is that girls In the circum-
stances of the writer cannot enjoy
these pleasures except amid surround
ings that are probably harmful.
But since, from her letter, she evi-
IDENTIFY cannot have these pleasures,
what then shall she do? Shall she sit
and repine and grow bitter and dis
contented? This will accomplish moth
ing, and cut her off still further from
pleasant acquaintances and friends
Rather, she should, like the plucky
American girl she undoubtedly is, face
the situation and see what can be ex-
tracted even from her present condi-
tion in the way of good times.
She evidently does not know the
real enjoyment to be found in simple
pleasures. Here is where she needs
to step outside her little world. The
prospect may not look inviting, but
once she has broken through the wall
she has built around herself and ven-
tured into the big wondrous world
outside, she will be delighted at the

CHAMP
AN UNKNOWN

Tennis experts on the Coast are siz-
ing Mrs. Coulter, Hawaiis champion,
up as KIND of dark horse" or "un.
known" in the big tournament now in
full swing over there The sporting
writer of a San Francisco paper has
this to say of the matter:
The women's championship title lies
practically among three players. Miss
Hazel Hotchkiss, of course, is looked
upon as almost sure winner. The
next strongest player from the local
clubs will be Miss Coda Myer. The
latter won from Miss Hotchkiss on
one occasion and is conceded an out
side chance in the coming event. Mrs
George Coulter, the Hawaiian islands
champion, is rather an unknown guam
tity. She is said to be an exceptional
ly brilliant player and it is possible
she has a surprise in store for the To-
cal enthusiasts.
The events in connection with the
tournament will be mems singles, wo-
mems singles, mems doubles, consola-
tion singles for men, and a special
women's tournament. In the consola-
ton event for the men only those will

pleasures that are hers on all sides
for the taking.
A walk in the country with close
observation Of the powers, the sky,
the scenery, or on the city streets
with study of the people, will prove
most enjoyable. She may think she
does not care for walking, that there
is no fun in anything of this kind.
She may even need to exert her will
to begin seeking pleasure in this
guise. But she should make the eff
fort and make the start Not many
walks will be taken before she will
find in them keen delight.
She may be no reader, but let her
compel herself to get really good
books and magazines, and to read
them carefully. They can be secured
at public libraries without cost.
Make a study of some good writer,
of some one subject, or country, or
historical epoch. She will be sur
prised how her interest and pleasure
in this sort of thing will grow. The
knowledge thus gained will bring ac-
quaintances interested in the same
things, and many pleasant friend
ships will result. A big and inter-
esting world can be opened to her
by books. If she has hitherto shut
herself out from it, she has no idea
of the pleasure in store for her.
The same is true of pictures. Art
galleries are open on Sundays in
most large cities, and an hour or two
there of an afternoon studying perhaps
only one or two pictures, means an
other world of enjoyment for her to
explore.
There is much in the way of good
times ahead of this girl, even if she
cannot afford to spend money, if she
will wake up and walk out into the
worlds of pleasure awaiting her.
Then she should get an occupation
that is a delight to her, not one that
is only a drudgery. She may be some
time seeking it, even preparing for
it, but when she finds it, her days
will be filled with joy. For when one
is doing the work one loves, there is
song in the heart all the day, and
life hods so much the cup brims
over.

LUNCHEON To THE
COAST VISITORS
Continued from page five.)

Angeles Chamber of Commerce and
president of the commission, thanked
the local Chamber for the entertain
ment received in Honolulu and promis-
ed the cooperation of PACIFIC Coast
commercial bodies in anything that
might benefit the Hawaiian islands.
The address of the Chinese consul
above referred to, which made such a
favorable impression upon those who
heard it, was as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen:-.I flatter my
self for having the honor of being the
first representative of my country to
meet this most important delegation
here since your departure from the
mainland.
My people in this island join me in
congratulating your country upon it's
having sent such distinguished body
of commercial magnates to study the
commercial relation of the two coun-
tries.
AS the present century is pre-emin-
emily the century of international
commerce, the principal aim of the
United States government toward
China is to secure her commercial SUI
premacy in the Orient, as President
Taft has once said in one of his public

and should stick to his last. His first
duty is to acquire symmetrical physi-
cal development-to put every muscle
of his body in the best possible condi-
tion and then bring it under his brain
control. His muscle fiber should be
subject at all times to his brain cell,
to his will. Having accomplished
this he is ready for training for con-
tests. In his training let him stick to
his fighting; let him fight, fight, fight,

first match actually played in the

entered and defaulted in the cham
pionship tournament will not be eli

tournament for the women will be
open only to those who have not won
an official tournament. This will give
all the poorer players a chance as

addresses that zone of the great COM
ntercial prizes of the~world is the trade
with the four hundred million Chin
ese." China, with her teeming popula-
tion gradually being enfected with de.
sires and wants of the twentieth cen
tury but possessing only the facilities
of an agricultural people to crafty
them, will become the greatest buyer
in the world; and America, with her
enormous amount of surplus products
of the field and of the factory, will
become the greatest supplier of the
Far East, as she is now seeking for
it.
America has the good will of China
which is the most essential point to-
ward the success OF commerce. The
two countries are always friends. The
recent remission of a part of the Box
er indemnity has not failed to make a
favorable impression on our people. If
there be one commendable quality in
our people conspicuous by it's presence
it is that of not forgetting a good turn,
and the good Offices of this country are
and will be appreciated by us for many
years to come.
Mutual understanding is also an in.
dispensable point in the commercial
| relation between the two countries.
China has made and is making an
honest effort to study the thought of
America while this country in parti-
cular of the nations of the West is en-
/ deavoring to understand the spirit of
the East, as it is now evidenced in
this most important delegation of the
Pacific Coast. China has sent hun
dreds of students to study in America.
The young men, the future leaders of
China, after being saturated with Am
erican ideas and American ideals, will
form a bridge across the broad ex-
panse of the Pacific ocean, on which
American learning, American inven.
tiOns, and American manufactures are
and will be brought over to China.
The struggle for a fresh market be-
tween the different nations is Of
course a very keen one; but with such
advantages as I have said and with
such an able body of business men,
who are now going to improve your
interest in our country, feel sure that
this mission will be a great sue.

TEXAS FARMERS WILL PLANT COOLERS
At Meeting in Yoakum Farmers De-
cided to Put in Good Acreage.
Have Ready Market.

Yoakum, Tex.-At a meeting called
by the Commercial Club Saturday, and
to which all of the farmers had been
invited the matter of getting farmers
interested in the growing of peanuts
was discussed. About seventy-fve
farmers and citizens attended the
meeting, and while it was the general
opinion that it was too late in the
year now to engage in the cultivation
Of peanuts extensively, many present
signified their intention of putting in
a good crop next season. There was
some hesitation on the part of the
farmers to engage in goober raising
unless sure of good price, but W.
L. Burton, president of the CONNER
cial Club, assured them that they could
get 9Oc bushel and better for all
they raised. While no definite steps
were taken the meeting will undoubt-
eddy result in good acreage being
put In peanuts next year.
