Local polo players are considerably
agog over. the news that some OF Eng
lands most famous poloists are COM
ing to the Coast to play a series Of
games and there is much talk of in
dividual visits to California during the
time when the visitors will be playing
for the purpose of picking up point
ers on the game and seeing how the
game is played on the other side.
Lord Tweedmouth and Lord lines
Kerr, the two crack players who were
in California last year, are both COM
ing back this winter and they Will
bring with them two of their fellow
members of the Royal Horse Guards,
one of whom is the Duke of West
minister, who is an enthusiastic polo
player and close friend of Lord
Tweedmouth.
In addition to these English players
a large coterie of the best-known Am
erican players will come to the Coast
with their string of polo ponies. They
seem to have realized that California is
the one place in the States where they
can play polo in the winter time, also
that two of the best grounds in the
world are reputed to be in California;
namely the grounds of the Coronado
Polo Club and the Riverside grounds.
The East is said to be mad over
polo and the game has been more play
ed since the recent international con-
est than ever before.
Frank Mackey, who donated the
Mackey cup for which the California
teams annually play, will return from
England to Coronado in November and
again be an active figure in Coast
polo. Major Collin Ross of Canada

then the publication of his book is for
the sake of the writer himself, not Of
these readers. 1t becomes an exhibi.
ton of essential selfshness, mere van
ity and vexation of spirit. A book
ought to be rich with the full flavor
of the authors personality; primarily
it ought to express him-but second
arily it is for the sole benefit of the
reader.
A book which is worth while is n
special message from it's writer to the
readers; and the reception of the mes
sage is, and must be, in proportion to
the skill with which this message has
been phrased to appeal to all who are
willing to hear it. To say this is not
to suggest that the author must write
down to the level of the men in the
street. and yet many OF the matter

ought to write broad"-if the word
may be ventured He ought to be pos

subject, of their opinions, and even of
their preiudices. He may choose the

THEO. DAVIES employees ISSUE
A CHALLENGE FOR BARGE RACE

Theo. Davies & Co. challenge E. o.
Hall & Son, II. Hackfeld & Co. and
the Bank of Hawaii to a barge race to
be rowed in the harbor over the junior
course on Thanksgiving Day.
Davies G. Co. have for the last eight
years won the mercantile baseball
championship, but this year have been
unable to find opponents, even after
going so far as to challenge the COM
bined teams of q. o. Hall & Son and
H. Hackfeld & Co.
The employees of the firm have
therefore decided to take up rowing
and as a consequence issue the above
challenge.
1t is to be hoped that such a race
can be arranged, for Thanksgiving
Day would be frightened up by such a
sporting fixture, and the sport of row.

AIN BEHALF OF
THE GENERAL READER

The presumption that an author is
at liberty to do as he pleases in his
own book is contrary to the funda-
mental and eternal principle that
books are written for the benefit Of
the readers-or at least that books
are published for the benefit of the
readers. The author, after having
composed his work for his own de-
light, to express himself, is under no
oompulsion to give it to the world. He
is justified in so doing only if he con-
ceives that his writing has a purpose

HUI NALU MAY ENTER NEXT YEAR

The Hui Nalu, winners of swimming
and padding laurels, are thinking of
raising enough money to buy a barge
with which to compete in next years
Regatta Day races.
They intended putting a crew in the
Junior race this year but had to aban-
don the idea on account of being I'M

The members of the club will make
an effort to secure the use of the boat

The club have ordered new swim

with blue trimming and lettering.

ing that an effort would be made to
arrange swimming races between two
members of the Hui Nalu and Messrs.

the Olympic Club swimmers who are
expected to visit Honolulu next month.
Vincent Genoves would wear the

Hackfeld & Co. would be right there

The Bank of Hawaii would have the
following men to select from:
F. Damon, G. Fuller, B. Thompson,
G. Gail, Ted Cooper, P. Deverill, Fred

-Four crews made up from the above
rowers would be evenly balanced and
a memorable contest should result.
The Myrtle and Healani boat clubs
would be only too glad to help out in
the matter of boats and in whatever
other way possible. Davies e Co. and
the Bank of Hawaii would probably
make their headquarters at the Myr-
tie boat house, while the Hackfeld and
Hall aggregations would be sheltered
by the Healanis' hospitable roof.
A trophy worth rowing for would
probably be jointly furnished by the
four establishments whom the crews
would represent.
