possibly shake its resources
The existence of this corporate body will help to make such
conagraon less likely The whole influence of the company

Besides the natural pride which Honolulu take in building up
an insurance company Of its will be the feeling that get

LITTLE INTERVIEWS

E. p. IRWIN-Honolulu is in the
hands of a milk trust.
J. LIGHTFOOT-A man just stop
ped me to say, "Your firm name i.
Lightfoot e Lightfoot Why dom
you change it to Lightfeet? 1t woult
save time"
JAMES STEINER-A ten-gallon kee
painted would serve as an efficient
life-buoy for the danger hole at Wal
kiki. If the Dathing-resorts don't put
one out I know somebody who will.
FRED TURRILr-I should think
that few tons of rock dumped in
those holes on the Waikiki beach
would prevent further loss of life.
This would be cheaper and better than
buoys.
r. w. HEILBRON-I thought that Joe
Cohen was going to cry during the run
of the picture at the Biiou last night
showing the sadness of the little
match girl from whom no one would
buy matches.
SAMUEL PARKER-Tes, : am GO
ing to resume my travels. | intend
leaving in the Sierra on the twenty
third and will stay around San Fran
cisco month or six weeks. Let those
who stay do the worrying. My late
trip to London and Taris and all
around has made me feel a new man.
E. NJ. MISUNDERSTANDING is in
readiness now to start a thorough
inspection between Oahu and the
other islands. Since the governor
signed Rule TX l have selected my
inspectors, Messrs. Arthur e. Carter

their duties on July i. Printed no.
tees to passengers will be handed
them when purchasing their tickets,
and tags for shipment of plants are
in readiness. Large notices in Eng
fish, Portuguese, Hawaiian and Jap
anese have been printed and will be
placed in conspicuous places on the
dock.
SUPERINTENDENT POPE-I have
been spending most of this morning
going into the matter of school houses
for Oahu with Mr. Adams of the Belt
Road Commission. This commission
has the handling of the money from
the bond issue for five school houses
on this island. Tentative plans have

commissioners Of the other islands
shortly on the matter of school build
ings to be provided under their di-
rection, and hope that we may have
some of the smaller buildings in serv-
ice during the coming year of school.
RALPH H. HOSMER-During the
month there have been planted out
in Nuuanu valley above Luakaha, ex-
detrimental lots of a number of spe-
.cles of Eucalyptus mostly new to
the Territory. Plots, some of one
half, some of one-third acre each,
have been laid out for some twenty
odd species. About half of the seed
lings have been planted; the remain
der will be set out in July. The cost
of this work was borne by the Forest
Service of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture out of it's allot-
ment for experimental planting in Ha-
wall. The object of the experiment
is to help to determine which species
of Eucalypts are best adapted for use
in these islands.

to fully express to that august body
my feelings for their kind considera-
tion and for the many, many favors |
have received at their hands. In
view Of the slight services l have en-
deavored to render the association in
the last feel it incumbent upon me
to publicly express to them as forcibly
as possible how deeply grateful I am,
and in saying farewell to all of them
until we meet again, hope that they
will treat all the other members with
the same consideration they have
shown to me. Yours faithfully,

BROWNS DEATH A LESSON,

The death of Gordon Brown, erst- while captain of the Yale football team, and all around athlete, of or ganic disease while still a young man, teaches once more the lesson that nature exacts a terrible penalty for the over exertion necessary to athletic supremacy along the lines demanded by college sports. The strained hearts and the distended ar teries, that are the concomitants of extraordinary physical exertion, nev- CT renew their normal functioning. As Brown died so did James J. Ho- gan, and so has many another ath- lete.
 College sports, as they are now the participants. nor for the public that looks on. The goal should be the healthy physical training of the greatest number of individuals. The development of a few over specializ- ed men to gain the applause of a holiday crowd should be abandoned for saner things. The splendid en- ergy of a Hogan and a. Brown can be more usefully exhausted in higher endeavor than football and throw ing the hammer. What shall it profit 9 man to be an "All American guard" and lose his own life

TYPICAL AMERICANS

The first days session of the six Grand Court of Connecticut, Pores ters of America, in Hartford was marked by the attendance of three Democratic mayors of three large Connecticut cities, all young men, and all men who have risen from the ranks. They are Mayor Edward z. Buckingham of Bridgeport, Mayor Edward l.. Smith of Hartford and Mayor Thomas l.. Reilly of Meriden upon whom is heaped the additional distinction that comes to a journalist and @ congressman. Their remarks made at the banquet in the evening were characteristic of the optimis- tic tone of the great modern politi- cal movement of which they are part No vein of pessimism tinc- tured their speech There are wrongs, but they, will be righted In- stitutions are sound at the core, but need a little remodelling, which is cn the way These are typical Americans, representative of the rank and file of their fellow country men. They reverence the past, but are unfettered by the tenets of the past if those tenets interfere with the justice of to-day or the wise pro- gress of tomorrow. They would be just the same if they were Republi- cans. Their Democracy is merely a fortunate accident of birth.
