from the Masters and Pilots Associ-
alton to the Harbor Commission for
the remarks and threats of the asso-
ciations representatives before the
commission.
J. II. BEADLE-Not many small
buyers of real estate insist on Tor
rens titles, because of the cost. Be
tween the survey. the advertising and
the other charges the tax amounts to
$50 or 800, which small buyers look
upon as too much.
CHARLES E. KING-If the gas
company gives Kaimuh a service, as
| suppose it eventually will, the
chances are that a branch line will
be run a short distance into the
Palolo valley, where there is a grow
ing settlement
WALTER THURTELL-T am strong
ly impressed with the medicinal value
of raw onions, They soothe the
nerves, relieve insomnia, help the ac-
ton of the kidneys, and are a laXi-
tive. Nature knew what she was
about when she invented onions.
H. NJ. AYRES-I had some excellent
beer at Leilehua. I didn't think of
the abolition of the canteen, but evil
dent'y they don't need a canteen. If
it was near-beer, it was so near beer
that I couldn't tell the difference, and
l beg to recommend it most highly.
WALTER !. HOWARD. seemed
to be when l was in Europe that all
the nations there were honeycombed
with Socialism. Why, even the keep.
ers of royal palaces, to which the
public was invited, complained of the
millions spent on keeping the sover-
eign in state and said the people
ought to have them, instead
EDMUND NORRIE-Local politics
is getting raw and crude. / like to
see some finesse. The action % the
Loan Fund Commission in refusing 70
give John Wilson the belt road CON
tract was taken because Link Nc
Candless happens to be his hacker
Please quote me to this effect, and
say that l am accustomed to less raw
work.
OWEN WILLIAMS - People who
have seen my solid stone and concrete
floored two-story house in the Paiolo
Valley regard it as peculiarly we'll
fitted for this climate. The walls and
partitions are of solid stone blocks,
and l suppose l could grow ivy on my
parlor wall There is some woodwork,
of course, but the house is practically
fireproof and is delightfully."- cool in
summer. l have a sun heater and
acetyline gas.
DR.. WAYSON-We are going 10
make no discrimination in enforcing
the screening ordinances. l person
ally made an inspection of a number
of haole stores which handle vege-
/ tables and fruits. Some had complied
with the law, but some had not.
These latter were given until next
! Wednesday to get their products un-
der cover, If they don't they will be
arrested the same as the Chinese
stall keeper at the fish market.
e. S. HARDESTY-I build serv-
ants quarters now and then that
would have been plenty good enough
for me to live in before l had a wife
and family If a dozen young men
got together and bought a $500 lot,
made an alley from front to rear to
be faced by houses of one and a half
rooms, costing a trife, and with a

SUPERVISOR KRUGER - There

about the screen ordinance. There IS
