POPE Returns
/. WITH AFFIDAVITS
MORE SMOKE THAN FIRE, BUT
ENOUGH OF LATTER TO
KEEP THINGS WARM.
lFrom Monday,s Advertiser.l

Acting on specific charges Of i'm
moral conduct on the part of Frank
A. Richmond, principal of the Hilo
High School, Superintendent Willis 7.
Pope on Saturday suspended Richmond
until these charges can be investigated
and decision rendered by the commits
sioners of education.
The specific allegations against Rich
mond are contained in two afidavits
made by two of the girls attending the
school, one being Japanese and the
other Hawaiian. The acts charged
occurred during the past and present
school years.
Mr.. Pope returned from Hilo yester-
day morning, after having spent some
three or four days in taking more or
less indefinite and unsupported evidence
concerning Mr.. Richmond, which Incl
dentally touched upon Mrs. Compton,
who was also recently suspended by
Inspector Gibson and is now observing
events from Waikiki, Maui. Mr.. Pope
says that all proceedings were taken
verbatim, and that they will be com
Iprised in about one hundred and fifty
typewriter pages 1t is Mr.. Pope 3
intention to call the commissioners Of
education to meet at the most conven-
lent place as soon as possible, but he
says that they can not be assembled
lat earliest before next week. Mean
while some of the classes at the Hilo
school have been given a recess.
Although almost since the very day
of the arrival of Mrs. Compton in Hilo
there has been great deal of friction
between her and the principal and
other teachers, it was not until the fol.
lowing letter was received that Mr..
Pope decided that he would better &c
to Hilo and thoroughly sift matters:

March 80, 1911.
Willis 7. Pope,
Superintendent, Department of Pub
lie Instruction, Honolulu.
, Dear Sir:
/ We, the undersigned, parents of :
children attending the Hilo High
School, have information respecting
Il sthe conduct of Frank A. Richmond,
j principal of said school that would,
!. N if true, warrant his immediate dis
missal.
Under his administration there
exists a lack of discipline, and a
{ feeling of disrespect-if not con-
9 tempt-on the part of pupils for
! their principal; therefore we ask
4 that you have a thorough investi-
cation made bearing on these mat
J, tiers.
There is no doubt that the bad
example set and the indecorous
atmosphere existing at the school
is is having demoralizing influence
k on the characters of our children.
While addressing you we desire
TO express our appreciation OF the
), good and efficient work of Mrs.
,, Compton (who has been suspend
t ed), under whose tuition we be-
lieve our children to have made
rapid progress. We sincerely hope
l. that the discipline of your depart
y ment will permit of her being re-
instated

STUFFED TOMATOES.

Dear Members of Social Corner: The letters in your depa artment have just come to my notice and cannot resist the tempta tion of joining your helpful circle. have read Juanita's apprecia- ton of the salad recipes and her desire to know more. Perhaps the simple de- vice which I am going to tell you is an old one to many. but for those who haven't 1t I am sure it will be help full summer idea.
 Stuffed Tomatoes-Take perfect to- matoes, peel them and cut out the cen- ter. For filling, chop cooked bests, beans or a mixture of vegetables, well moistened with salad dressing. Place each stuffed tomato on lettuce and dip salad dressing over it. The result is very pretty and extremely palatable.
 I have tried a few of the cake recipes written by some of our good wives and my children pronounce them ''just fine!n What phrase could be substi- tuted that would be one-ha1f as ex- pressive?
 If my first offering as cook meets with success, Esant to send you my recipe for the funniest made but nioest kind of sponge cake you have ever eaten.

Our Commercial Cousins.

"Commercialism is the curse of American life.' Those Americans view everything from the standpoint of the money grubber." ''The land If the dollar" When we hear such pleasant expressions as these we al - ways know without being told who is talking. It is one of our English cou- sins. The French and Germans rare- ly hand us such thorny boquets. They are frugal, sensible people themselves and they don't affect to despise money and the good things which it pro- Vides. They are not ashamed of want ing to be prosperous and or turning an honest penny whenever opportunity offers The English are just as keen this footstool. They have not changed since Napoleon called them a nation of shopkeepers and. indeed, it is still the boast of their after dinner speak CTS, especially when the dinner has been 8 good one, that theirs is the greatest commercial nation ill the world. Taken collectively, they are proud of their ability to drive a bar gain which results in big national mothers son of them pretends that there's something inherently disgrace full in acquiring this worlds goods and that all kinds of lucre are indeed filthy.
 Talk about commercialism! When did Americans ever turn a public oc- casion to financial profit in the way in which the English are utilizing the coming coronation of their king?

An Aerial tRoundup.

Those who have been expressing doubts of the practical value of the aeroplane will find an interesting item in Q dispatch from Houston, Tex, which describes how Rene Simon rounded up herd of cattle on ranch. Simon was able without assistance to head the steers toward the aviation field where he had been giving exhi- bitions sending them off on the trot and bringing them up to the fence separating the field from the prairie, after which he turned them in another direction and delivered them to a group of cowboys waiting for them. The whole performance was accom- plished with less trouble and in short CT time than by the usual methods Visions of aviating cowmen are in spired by this performance. Already the pictureSqueneSs of ranch life is dimned by the intrusion of modern methods. The automobile has honked and throbbed it's way across the ranch lands. The boss cowman turns a crank instead of whirling a lasso. Will the next general ton of cattle herders be mounted on their aeroplanes? What will become of their "chaps," their lariats, their. breeze-eatching sonnbre- ras2 VIII 1t be possible to rope d steer from midair? Some doubt may be expressed about the ability of the aviator to cut out a particular steer from herd or separate a, bunch of cattle into two parts. Possibly the success of Simens undertaking near Houston was due to the fact that the Texas cattle are unaccustomed to aeroplanes.--Wa ashington Star

The making of the bed for a sick person is very important matter. It is really remarkable how few people know how to make a bed well. As much of the comfort of the patient de- pends upon this, I will try to describe to you how to do it, although it would be we'll for you to take the first oppor- tunity which may arise to see it done by a professional nurse. I regret to say that all nurses are not good bed makers, but nevertheless I think you will find that q great deal more can be learned from seeing such a thing done than by describing it. In the first place, have your mattress evenly and freshly padded. If you use rubber sheeting to protect the mattress, blanket should not be used. However securely fastened with large safety pins at the four corners and at the sides, unless it is large enough to tuck in well. The under sheet should be large enough to allow at least twelve inches for tucking in all around. In many cases a draw sheet is the next thing required. This is a long sheet folded in half lens thwise, one edge tucked in under the mattress sufficient ly to hold it in place, and if the pa- tient is very restless. secured also with two safety pins.
 It is then tucked in at the other side and the remainder of the sheet neatly rolled and also tucked in. In width the sheet should reach from a little below the shoulders to just above the knees. When the bed becomes hot and uncomfortable. or perhaps crumbs hide themselves in the way that crumbs do, it is very refreshing to the patient to have tho sheet A1R~n through far

HOW ONE SISTER MAKES AND
 BAKES BREAD.

Editor Social Corner:-By mixing Dread and putting 1t to rise over night I discovered that very often 1t did not rise enough. as the house was not as warm as during the day. I have no coal range (which I am sure most of the Corner Sisters possess), simply a gas rane; so my kitchen has 8 very uneven temperature. Therefore had to devise some new plan, as l am a young housewife looking for experi- ence and was determined not to fall back on bakers bread. My plan works famously. I mix my bread at o'clock in the mor ming and set it to rise near the furnace register: at p. m. m it is ready to be taken out on to the bread board and kneaded well. I then put it into the pans and set near the regis ter again to rise; at D. m. it is ready for the oven, and st 5.45 D. m. it is baked. requiring exactly 45 minutes for baking in the gas range. In this way I can have raised biscuits for din- ner, as our hearty meal has to be at 6 p. m-
 For the benefit of some young and inexperienced housewife, like myself, l give my
 Recipe for Making Bread-Let one Fleischmann yeast cake dissolve in a cup of tepid water. Put into your bread pan two quarts of bread flour, one tablespoon sugar, and the same of salt. Into this mix well with the hand one large tablespoon of lard add the cup of tepid water in which the yeast cake has been dissolved; finally, add. 1 1-2 pints tepid water; mix with. a knife till firm; cover over and set to rise in a warm place (not tod warm). After five or six hours it should be ready to be put on to the bread board and kneaded well, adding as little flour as possible. Cut into as many loaves as is desired, having the dough half fill aanh r,av lef ri4a Till n F1yI bake in a moderate oven (45 minutes if in gas range). In warm weather the water that is used should be cold. I must congratulate Sister Who" How surprised she must have beon when she took her seat in the Norris

MARmALApE-ReFEpIEs.

Editor Social Corner-Herewith en- close timely. tested recipes:
 Orange Marmalade--Four tart or anges, 2 lemons. cut in small pieces and the seeds taken out, put pints of yater over the oranges and lemons and 1-s pint over the seeds and let stand 24 hours. then drain the water off the seeds and boil all hours. Then add pounds of sugar and boil until it 5eils. This makes 6 or 8 jelly tumhlers and is what we call good. Pare white from oranges and lemons and throw 1t away.
 Orange Marmaiads-No. 2.-When oranges are cheap l make marmalade after this rule: One dozen oranges, lemons, 1-2 quarts of cold water, 10 cups of sugar. Wash the fruit and remove the rind of oranges and lemons in. as thin pieces as possible and cut into thin strips; pare the white from the lemon and oranges and throw 1t away; cut lemon and oranges Into thin slices, remove seeds and thick white center, put skins and fruit into far with the cold water and allow to stand 24 hours; put into preserving kettle and boil gently three hours; add sugar and boil l5 minutes place in glasses cool and cover.

RECIPES FOR ODD THINGS.

Editor Social Corner: Herewith I send recipes for making odd things:
 Flashed Brown Potatoes-Fry out fat salt pork cut in small cubes, remove third cupfl1l; add two cups cold boiled potatoes finely chopped one- eighth teaspoon pepper and salt if needed. Mix potatoes thoroughly with fat, cook three minutes, stir constantly, let stand to brown underneath. fold as an omelet and turn on hot platter.
 Cranberry Pie-Mix together one cup of sugar, two level tablespoons of corn starch and one tablespoon of salt, add one cup Of boiling water, stir and cook for five minutes, then add one and one half cups of chopped cranberries and one-haf cup of chopped and seeded raisins, and let simmer for fifteen min utes. Turn into a baked pastry shell, cover with the white of one egg beaten until stiff and sweetened with one ta- blespoon of sugar, and brown lightly in oven.
 Orange and Grape Saiad-Pare two seedless oranges. cutting deep enough to remove all the white, and cut the pulp into small pieces. Add an equal quantity of malaga grapes from which the seeds have been removed and one tablespoon of canned rimento cut into tiny strips; moisten with French dress ing and serve in nests of lettuce leaves.
 HulIed corn-This is my recipe for hulling corn: Get the regular white corn, put into a kettle of cold water, allowing a large tablespoon of salera- tus to each quart of corn. Cook with out adding much more water until 1t looks rather mushy, which will be in about two or three hours. and it will be brown. Take from the stove and put into colander, pour cold water over it, then wash it through water after water until an the hu1ls and skins come off. Then put into a kettle large enough to allow for swelling, cover with boiling water and cook a while. When the water Is light brown, turn 1t off and add more boiling water un- til the corn looks white. let mine cook slowly from about 1 o'clock until after 4. If you like it to taste more of the soda. don't change the water so much. You must allow that 1t will swell to nearly three times its original size.

let it stand, say over night; then skim off the scum that rises to the top and pour the rest in bottles ready for use Be. careful not to let the settings run out; throw those away. You can strain it through cloth; take one tablespoon in a little milk or water (milk is better) before meals three times a day at first, then take it first thing in the morning the rest of cold weather
 All cracked hands are not cauased by the same thing. Sometimes it is salt rheum, erysipelas. In these cases mutton tallow is rubbed on and keer hands out of cold water
 Those afflicted with itch take com mon lump starch, wet with vinegar and make a paste, rub in thoroughly and you will find itch gone and skin healed in short time. Use warm water; this I know has cured people after trying many other prescriptions given by physicians. w. H. P.

A TWO HORSE TALE.

Editor Social Corner: On a pleasant summer afternoon, some years ago with gentleman guest, one older member of his family and his little girl ness man of Norwich started out for a drive.
 A pair of spirited thoroughbred horses, with an easy riding two- seated carriage, constituted the turnout.
 After driving for some miles out into the country. the party came to a large sheet of water. In a space free from underbrush, by the side of the road, the horses were driven up to the fence and the party alighted.
 The little girl ran down to the edge of the water, not far away, and very soon was heard calling: Papa, oh, papa come here and see these funny bugs on the water" and the party all went in that direction.
 They were gone but q short time, but on their return the horses and car riage had disappeared. Looking down the road. the team could be seen. The horses were not running, but trotting away at a good sharp pace.
 The gentleman started in pursuit, but his attempt to stop or overtake the trotters did not succeed. and they soon disappeared around a sharp curve in the road. Somewhat dejected, the party walked along the road in the same di- ItcllOu, 6x pcCtIuS every LO come upon the scene of soma sort of a runaway accident.
 The sight which little later met their gaze was such great surprise they could hardly believe their own eyes. At some distance away the team was again in sight. The horses were coming along the road at a good sharp trot, but this time they were coming toward the party.
 When they reached the place where the gentleman stood in the road they were easily stopped. The party then re-entered the carriage and made lit tie investigation.
 standing by the fence without driver the horses had turned the carriage completely around and got into the road without accident. Over a narrow and somewhat circuitous country road they had travelled for nearly a mile. At driveway leading into a farm house yard they turned in, making a complete circuit of the yard, and in coming out had started back in the direction from which they came.
 A light carriage robe picked up in the driveway leading into the yard of the farmhouse was the only mishap. After enjoying a fine drive tho party returned home.
 For over thirty-seven years the &C., tive and successful management of commercial and financial affairs has fully occupied the time and attention of the gentleman of this incident. Dur ing all that period he has been daily reader of The Bulletin.
 At the present time he is a genial and happy grandpa. Although a very busy man, as a cheerful and courteous host, he always has time for his friends and time to read all the interesting news which appears in the Social Cor ner. A. F. w.

Insanity and Divorce.

There appears to be no warrant for tho measure which has beea offsred the Minnesota legislature, providing that continuous insanity for flvs years, supported by the affldavfts of two re- putable physicians that the patient ls fncurable, shall constitute a legal ground for divorce.
 Insanity is one of the diseases CT affections that has baffled the skill of the most advanced medical experts. Science has not yet been ablo t0 AA minister successfully to a mind Als- ease. No physician has been able to decide with any degree of certainty when a troubled brain may clear. Having maniacs have been restored to sanity while they slept. Apparently hopelessly and violently insane persons have regained their mental equilibrium in a moment. There is a grave ques- tion whether there is such q condition as incurable insanity.
 Under the circumstances, the use of insanity as means of divorce is noth- ing short of the refinement of cruelty. It is as unjust and unfair and inhurnan as would be proposition to kin crip- pied children. The man who would seek or desire a divorce from his In. sane wife, or the wife who would seek divorce from an insane husband, is not worthy to be considered as . can didete for matrimonial honers.-St Paul Pioneer Press.
