LOCAL MAN MAKES
AN AVIATION
RECORD
Series of Accidents AT
A Certain Point
Sunday
Especial to the Garden Island)

WAHIAwA, June 1S.-A motor
cycle, a bicycle and a frightened
horse, figured in three accidents at
the foot of the hill here this after
noon, each occurring within half
all hour of each other but being in
no way connected.
About four this a f DON a
Japanese was observed to apparent
ly lose control of bike which he
was riding, and to dash down the
hill at terrific speed. He brought
up near the foot of the hill with
such a suddeness as to put his
machine completely out of COM
mission, and to send him spraw-
ling. The rider was painfully
bruised and considerably scratched
The second accident occurred
shortly after, when Harold Morgan,
teller of the Bank at Lihue, while
attempting to ascend hill in hopes
of getting up speed for a climb up
the next grade, felt something sud
denly go wrong with his gearing
and before he could apply til {
brake, he was given his first lesson
in aviation. Not being able to
choose his falling position, II c
landed simply all over the road. "
He was not seriously injured but
the motorcycle was damaged t.
such an extent as to cause him tC
order a car from Waimea to take
him to Lihue. The drive chair
jumping and becoming caught il
the gearing was responsible for the
accident.
The third accident happened
shortly after when horse attached
to vegetable wagon being driver
by filipino came tearing dowl
the hill. There were three men il
the wagon all of whom were toe
badly frightened to jump. Or
reaching the foot of the hill, the
wagon took swerve and wen
over the embankment, spilling the
occupants in every direction. One
man received serious injury. the two
others being more frightened thar
hurt. The wagon was wrecked
while the horse was painfully
bruised and considerably cut.

BIGGEST DAY IN THE
SOCIAL HISTORY
Of KOLOA
Kalihiwai Boy Receives
Honors-Schools
To Close
Especial to the Garden Island)

KOLoA, June 19. Special base
ball trains, the Holy Ghost cele-
bration, baseball, basketball, and
last but by no means least, the neat
and nifty Lihue band with it's
enchanting music and elegant new
instruments, all combined to make
this a day long to be remembered as
the biggest day ever seen in Koloa.
NJ or than a thousand peo-
pie thronged the streets, dividing
their attention as fancy dictated,
between the various attractions. In
the early part of the day, the peo-
pie began to assemble to take part
i'll the Holy Ghost Feast. The ar
rival of the Lihue band was shortly
followed by a special train bringing
the Makaweli ball team. The big
gest sensation, however, was the
arrival of automobiles filled with
the pretty girls of the Waimea bas-
ketball team, all dressed in their
black and gold. They won the
hearts of hundreds of spectators as
easily as they won the game from
the home team.
Koloa had enough hospitality to
make sveryone feel perfectly hap
py and to long for repetition of
the days program. The weather
was ideal and autos, filled with
gaily dressed pleasure seekers
from all parts of the island, were
lined up by the scores. The day
was so full of real JOY that Old Sol
had smiled his goodnight appro-
val OH the day $ doings and passed
into sweet repose, ere the last auto
had turned the corner homeward.

Dear Sir:

Lihue, Kauai, June II, 1911.
EDITOR GARDEN ISLAND
Dear Sir:
TWenty-one y a s ago next
month l spent few days on Kauai
just before my removal from Ha-
waii nei. You ask me to give you
some impressions of the Island as
l see it today as compared with
my former visit. My first im-
preston is of your splendid roads.
Your enterprise i'll grading and
macadamizing, what might be call
ed your belt-line public highway,
is to be highly commended. At
the time of my first visit | travelled
entirely on horseback, while now,
by the kindness of my friend, Mr..
w. H. Rice, Sr., l am carried
everywhere in his beautiful motor
car. Where spent a day twenty
one years ago between points, he
carries me i'll two or three hours.
The auto had not arrived then,
now it possesses the land. An
other striking change is the exten-
sion of the cane fields. 1t is simply
wonderful what has been done i'll
this direction. At my first visit l
was greatly interested i'll going
over the mill at Kealia and study
ing the diffusion process there in
use. have often spoken of it.
| return to find that it has been
rejected and everywhere the mas
ccration process is being used. In
other words your up-to-dateness
in these things is in striking evil
dence everywhere. Do l wish to
talk to Honolulu, your wireless is

Hanalei JUNE i6.-With few e$-
ceptions, the crowd of eXcursionists
which overan this place on the re-
cent Maui-Kauai trip, was COM
posed of a gang of hoodlums whose
every action and speech denoted
cheapness and an eXtenuated
opinion of themselves. AS All
illustration of this, one OF the first
remarks one of II m IN a d G
to a clerk in the Hanalei Hotel,
was, Have you got anything to
drink?' When answered in the
negative, a howl went up which
was echoed throughout the crowd
which proceeded to express it's dis
gust at such a slow old place. -
Cheap excursions are all right,
but cheap people are not wanted
They are much more welcome
