CONTEST
GREATEST EVER

vious contests in Honolulu. Some are
known in the professional life of the
Islands. Different nationalities are
represented, which is, perhaps, as it
should be in this cosmopolitan COM
munity.
When the long list is published on
the. afternoon of October 20 it will
be eagerly scanned. There will be
some surprises, of course-pleasant
surprises. Then all will get down to
hard work
1t will be merry contest, all the
way from Hanale' to Kau. While it
is going on The Star will endeavor to
keep an oversight of the entire vast
field, publishing the news of the work
of each canvasser and assisting each
in every possible way within the rules,
The Prizes offered.
The first ten prizes offered are cas-
lily understood. One of them is cash
money. This will be the first prize,
and will go to the person holding the
highest number of votes at the finish.
The building lot offered is in Kaimuki,
and is a very choice one. 1t is worth
very nearly the amount of the first
cash prize, and is an excellent second
prize. The Savings Bank account
means $500 in gold deposited on inter.
est to the credit of the successful
contestant. The other seven prizes
speak for themselves.
1t should be distinctly remembered
that the eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth
and fourteenth prizes belong exclu-
sively to the other islands, and can
not be competed for by contestants
on the Island of Oohu.
The Contest Manager.
Mr.. George F. Henshall city editor
of the Star, who is managing the con-
test, is now on the Island of Hawaii
He will arrive on Maui about Satur-
day and will return to Honolulu early
next week. On both of the islands
mentioned he is enrolling candidates
and giving them instructions. In his
absence the Honolulu Office is in the
hands of competent assistants, who
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-10-04

The Contest Office of the Hawaiian
Star was opened Monday morning. 1t
occupies a section near the front door
of the business office in Bethel street.
There a person ready to answer ques'
lions or advise prospective contest
ants may be found any hour after
8 a. m.
The spirit in which the public re-
ceived the news of the contest has
been most gratifying. The term, Sub
scription contest" sounded to many
like an old story, but upon looking
farther into the matter they discov'
cred at least two items of more than
usual interest.
First, it was unusual for The Star
to initiate such campaign. Not hav'
ing undertaken a real, live contest
before, the public had come to regard
the city's biggest paper as consider
ably too conservative to advance such
a proposition, That The Star should
really start a subscription campaign
was big news-was news that spread,
Everybody read of it in the paper and
stopped to read the announcements
on the windows of The Star office,
while Monday, yesterday and today
many people called at the Contest
Department for further information.
Second, the number and value OF
the prizes offered struck the public
at once as unusual. Any one of sew
eral prizes, it was perceived, was
worth more than several weeks of
hard work; while, on account of the
large number put up, it was plain
that any real, live hustler could
achieve something we'll worth his or
her time and trouble.
On these accounts, nominations of
candidates began to come in first
thing Monday morning, and have kept
up steadily since. 1t would be highly
improper to even hint at this time
as to whom the candidates already
accepted are. Some of them, it may
be said, however, are quite well
known to all Honolulu. Some names
are familiar to many on account OF
the parties having participated in pre-

A LEGAL MIND.

Harold, aged nine, came home one
day so bruised and dirty that his
mother was thrown into a state of
marked perturbation.
"Mercy!" she exclaimed, in horror,
How on earth, my child, did you get
your clothes and face into such a
state?"
Il was trying 10 keep a little boy
from getting licked" was Harold's vir-
tuous, if hesitating, reply.

fed parent. Il am proud of you, SON
ny. Who was the little boy?"

WATCH THE MOONLIGHT.

There is nothing more regular IN
its visits than the moon. and every
time she comes around Haleiwa re-
ceives her with open arms and with
dancing. There may not be a regular
ball this month, but there is always
some kind of dancing during the
moonlight nights, and bathing is in
dulged in with great pleasure by the
hundreds who go down for the drive
and dinner. Haleiwa offers wonder
full opportunities for enjoyment and
trains go to the door.

TEN YEARS A SUFFERER.
Now a Well Man.

One of the most painful diseases
which afflict mankind is Rheuma-
tism. 1t is not always dangerous
but when it extends to the heart
the risk is very great. If not
checked, Rheumatism gradually
undermines the patients health,
wastes his strength, contracts his
muscles, stiffens his joints and often
makes him a cripple for life.
Plant juice affords almost instant
relief from Rheumatism, by neutral
izing the uric acid and driving its
poison from the system. This was
what it did for Mr.. j. S. Oldham,
Birmingham, Ala. who said; For
ten years l suffered from Rheuma-
tism, brought on by exposure in
performing my duties as police Off
Ger of the city of Birmingham. |

The W. c. 7. u. Meeting.

The w. c. I. u. met on Feb, 10th
with Mrs. Z. D. Stone. After de-
votional exercises and the trans
action of some important business
the afternoons topic, Womans Stuff
rage, was discussed.
An item from the Saturday Even
ing Post shows that woman must
take a back seat simply because
she is a woman. The Academy Of
Science in France has decided that
Madam Curric who with her hus-
band discovered radium and who
since her husbands death har been
taxing masculine brains to follow
her experiments, cannot now be-
come a member of that organization
because tradition says she must
not.
Not many men or women Of today
say that politics is too deep a mat
ter for womons brain, but their
most frequent objection is the wom-
ans place in the home. Mrs. Maud
Nathan who has been a house
keeper for twenty-five years, says;
There is not a department in my
housekeeping that is not affected
by politics. The immigration CUES
ton affects the servant question,
the tariff question affects the prices
of material we buy to furnish our
homes, Municipal politics force
themselves upon our attention daily
If the sheets are not clean our
homes cannot be clean. If garbage
is left in the back yards or alley the
home cannot possibly be kept in a
sanitary condition. If the meat
that comes to our tables comes
from slaughter houses that are fill
thy, because there is no regular in
spection of cattle, what redress has
the non-votinS housekeeper? We
women are taxed for everything in
the home, the ground we occupy
the water we drink and the food
we eat, and then we are told that
taxation without representation is
tyranny.
Other items of equal interest
were discussed and the meeting en-
joyed by all present. The next
meeting will be held with Mrs. Ry-
man Oh Feb. oath.

From Washington

There has been an unusual de-
mand fer dictionaries recently and
a great hustling among the ladies
OF high society owing to a recent
news item appearing in the news
papers that the legislature Of Mass
acausatts was about to pass a law
requiring all dress skirts to reach at
least six inches below the patella.
Women who had become a little
rusty in their knowledge Of anatomy
and physiology have been rather
embarrassed until they had looked
up the matter.
X X X
Volumes Of cloak rooms stories
about the experiences of Senators
have been printed but what the
Senators wives talk about in their
lete-a-tete mas not received the same
attention although it may be pre-
sumed that they have experiences
quite as interesting as some Of their
distinguished husbands. The other
day at a social function one Of the
ladies regretted that she could not
take refreshments on account Of her
veil that had been put on by a maid
before she started out on her after
noon calls. This called forth an
experience from another Senator's
wife who said that she had been in
a post Office recently and strange
lady approached her with a postage
stamp and asked her to lick it
because she had a veil on and could
not do it herself.

CAR ACCIDENT VICTIM
STILL UNIDENTIFIED

Thus far there has been no identl-
fication OF the woman killed by iall
as she stepped off moving street

Sunday afternoon. Her body still lies
in the county morgue. Many persons
have called to view the remains, but
no one could give the slightest clue
as TO her identity.
VIM. DeI.aurier, Coroner Burgess
clerk, Is Of the opinion that the wom-
an, who is about 2S years old, Is or
foreign birth, probably Hungarian.
A distinguishing feature Is small
nose, somewhat fiat and upturned.
There is another unidentified body
in the morgue, that OF the man who
died suddenly of heart disease In
kid" Lavigne's saloon, Saturday. II
Is thought that he was William john
son, of owen Sound, Ont, from cards
found In his possession, and Coroner
Burgess is investigating this clue.
Two other bodies, identified but un-
claimed. also repose in the morgue,
and will be sent to the potter's field

PLAYER FOLK ENJOY
SOME CHRISTMAS CHEER

Every effort was made by theater
managers, company managers and
players TO provide themselves and one
another with as much Christmas
cheer, Monday, as could be hung on
Christmas trees and packed In be-rib-
boned, holly-papered boxes. Francis
Wilson now playing an engagement, in
the Detroit opera house, in his own
play, The Bachelors Baby" provided
a handsome tree for the two children OF
his company, Stephen Atwell Davis
who impersonates the little girl In the
play so cleverly, and Joseph Wallace,
Stephens understudy in the role. Mr.
Wilson's dressing room on the stage
was transformed into a bower OF
Christmas greens with the beautifully
lighted tree In the center and the
whole company was invited into the
room to enjoy the treat with the chill
dren.
The members of The Deep Purple"
company in the Garrick theater, had
midnight supper together on the
stage. The Ward and Vokes company
in the Lyceum had supper in the Hotel
Ste. Claire following the evening per-
Torrance. as the guests OF Mr.. Ward.
In every theater in. the city Christmas
cheer of one kind or another made the
day happier for the players.
