Cleanup Day Plans
Are Maturing Well

up to Cleanup Day would be filled
with strenuous work of preparation.
Most people had had scratching TO
pay their taxes, besides which there
were constant calls on them for cnar-
table and other objects. This was
not a money campaign in the begin
ming, but one of voluntary work, yet
the executive committee had been
promised a considerable fund. There
would likely be need for some money
for special work, hence the offer OF
funds was very acceptable. The COM
mittee had been appointed to report
on what funds might be expected,
but had done nothing in the matter
However, money or no money, the
workers were going to make Clean
up Day a success. The speaker con-
cluded with a motion that the report
of the finance committee be laid on
the table and the committee urged
to make further efforts, which met
with no opposition.
Appeal to Citizens.
w. F. Wilson presented a report Of
the special committee to prepare a
statement of the purpose of Cleanup
Day, for distribution in different Ian
guages. This was in the form of the
statement itself in placard form and
in English, Chinese, Japanese and
Portuguese, the English version be-
Ing as follows:
CLEANUP DAY.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-19

Satisfactory reports were received
from most of the committees at the
final arrangements meeting for Clean
I'D Day, on Saturday evening. An ex-
ception was the report of the finance
committee, which merely told the
workers that little or no money
would be forthcoming from the Board
of Health and suggested that the
district leaders make a canvass for
funds.
President Mott-Smith, of the Board
of Health, followed up the report with
remarks, saying that a memorandum,
attributed to him in his official ca
pacity, appended to the report was
in fact a statement of the finance
committee.
In an earnest manner he urged that
Cleanup Day was dependent mostly
on the voluntary work Of the people,
and although its inception was
largely due to the Board of Health
he was in it as one of the people.
H. T. Mills, at the conclusion #
Mr.. Mott-Smith's remarks, offered
the following resolution, which at
later stage was taken up and, having
been. seconded by Senator Judd, was
unanimously adopted:
whereas, Cleanup Day should be
in all its phases thorough one, ana
must have the support of all persons
as we'll as the officials of this city
and Territory; and
whereas, The beneficial effect 81
a complete cleansing of Honolulu will
be felt on the mainland; therefore,
be it
Resolved, That the Governor Of
the Territory of Hawaii be requested
to declare a public holiday as of and
for June "a, 1911, and that the Gov
ernor, in such proclamation, earn
estly request all residents to use this
special day as a serious, working day
for the health and sanitation of our
city"
Finance Report Unacceptable.
A member whose sentiments were
echoed by several others, expressed
disappointment at the Indebtedness
OF the finance committees report It
was too late in the day to expect the
district leaders to make a house 20
house canvass, when every moment

THE AMERICAN LAWN MOWER.

THE AMERICAN LAWN MOWER.
The man who invented the first
American lawn mower died recently
at Newburg, N. Y, his name being
George l.. Chadborn.
Up to 1866 an English lawn mower
was manufactured in two or three
factories of the United States by spe-
cial arrangement as to royalties.
Then lawns were not as yet regarded
as an essential of home decoration
in this country. Mr.. Chadborn was
employed in one of the factories u.s.
ing the English patent, and he OBJ
tanned a patent of his own for an inn
proved contrivance. His machine
was hardly more than a third as
heavy as the English machine, and
it could be sold for less than half as
much. The inventors machine was
not accepted by his employers, be-
cause they thought it too light for
the work it had to do Chadborn
took in a partner and a friend OF
the latter furnished capital for the
manufacture of the new machine.
When they were making $50 ma
chimes a year the partners thought
they we're doing well. Chadborn,
who died at the age of seventy-seyen,
lived to see his factory turning out
a complete machine every minute of
the working day, and the factory has
become one of the greatest OF the
Hudson valley, while it has branch
offices in many European countries
The course of this invention resem-
bles that of many others. Lightncss
and suitability to the work to be done
have been the characteristics Of
many American contrivances. The
Yankee bucket is a triumph Of
these two things, The New England
shoe has tended to outsell every 9th.
er wherever it has had a fair test.
Even today returning Italian i'm
migrants take pride in carrying home
to Italy, American shovels, spades
