Kaihi Wins at Basketball.

The first game of the basketball
series arranged between the Y. M. G.
A. and the Kalihi teams was played
off at Kalihi and resulted in
win for the home team by to 10.
The game was fast, but rough, and
in the roughness the Kalihi boys had
the advantage. The Y. M. G. A was
a fast light team, but the heavier
boys on the Kalihi quintet more than
held their opponents in the first half
scoring 10 points to s. In the second
spell the Y. NJ G. A. team was slightly
changed, heavier men being substitute
ed and in this session there was only
a difference of one in the scores, Ka>
lihi scoring - to Y. M. c. A. 11.Can-
min, who was marked by Honan,
scored seven goals for Kalihi, but
Zerbe, who was marked by Marcal-
limo, did not score one point. For the
Y M. c. A. nine goals were scored
from fouls and for Kalihi only five
Kalihi committed 16 fouls and Y. M.
c. A. fourteen. Corporal Woodruff
reereed the game; James Mott was
umpire; and Rice and Hand were

Students Struggle for Athletic su
premaey.
The Athletic meet at the Boys
Field between Kamehameha School,
st Louis College and the Mckinley
High School will no doubt be wit
messed by a large gathering Of stu
dents. with a good sprinkling Of
adults, for meets of this nature be-
tween the lads of the rival educa-
tional establishments always com
mand plenty Of support. The Kane
hameha boys. after their excellent
showing against the College of Ha-
wall and Punahou, will surely be
tipped as the winners OF this meet,
though there are reports from st
Louis that the boys of that institution
are inclined to the belief that they
will win out. relying on the High
School boys to win out against the
Kamehameha in the events in which
the St. Louis boys have no chance Of
annexing first place. The meet has
not attracted the same attention as
the recently concluded meet between
Punahou, College of Hawaii and Ka-
mehameha, but nonetheless there is
plenty Of interest taken in the TRAN
gular contests.

gives promise of being an exciting
game. though the Aala Park team
has not been seen in action for some
time Sam Hop is back of the game,
and he claims that fans will be
tickled to death by the class of ball
served up. The Asahis put up good
ball on Sunday last. when they
snatched a nine-inning victory from
the Muhocks, and are expected to
safely handle the little heard-of
Aalas. The preceding game win be
between the Japanese High School
= and the Honolulu Japanese Club and
fairly good ball may be anticipated.
The two games in the plantation
ledSue are Wdllpduu VS. IWd anu
Waianae VS. Aiea. After the results
of the first four games in this league
it looks as though Eva and Aiea are
: due to add to their victories. In the
first game Aea beat Eva 4-S and fol-
. lowed up that success by beating

profession to arrogate superiority to themselves because they do not util- ize opportunities which others em- ploy to get their offerings before the people upon whom they depend for a livelihood
 Admitting that it is not the pub- lies business whether the member of this or that profession advertises or not. it is nevertheless gratifying, even if it is intrading to express the qualification, when anybody gets into harmony With the spirit of the times, and if there are any quacks in any of the learned professions who are reaping the material rewards of ad- vertising it would seem that the best way for the elect to get what belongs to them is by taking a leaf from their rivals books and liberal space in the various mediums of publicity.
 There are medical men in Pine Bluff who are top dignified in their professional life to have their names appear in the daily papers, and there are some lawyers who say they do not like the notoriety that accom- panies the every day news item in a live newspaper They can have their opinions and satisfy their own feel ings. but if they keep watch On every day affairs they will note that the man whose name frequently appears in print in connection with his pro- fession is the man who is getting the business and growing popular all the time.

CODE OF PROFESSIONAL ETHICS

At the recent meeting of the Ar kansas Dental Society in Pine Bluff the members threatened to suspend one of it's best members, a Texark- ana dentist, if he did not discontinue advertising in the newspapers. They considered his enterprise and progT essive ideas unethicat
 But at a recent meeting Of the Missouri Dental Association it was decided to permit its members to adertise without losing professional caste, and this latter decision will undoubtedly strike most people as eminently sensible and up to date.
 O3des of professional ethics are matters of institutions with which the general public has no particular concern except as it may be adverse ly or beneficially affected thereby. The general public, it may be ventur- ed, has no special sympathy with tae idea that the man who advertises his services is on lower 9lane than the man who does not. On the con sary the people generally have been educated to the point of looking upon advertising as evidence Of worthy enterprise and they do not stop to differentiate very 3gidlg ha- tween the one who announces his wares for sale and the one who ad- yertfses that he is ready fer aieats or clients.
 This is eminently the advertising age, the era of printers ink. Even states are getting press agents. Pub Iicity has been robbed of any taint or anackegy by it's very universality, and now the question is solely whether the advertiser is honest; whether his goods are as he repre- sents them or whether he is compet- ent to perform the services he of fers. The laws have been growing more and more vigorous for the in- cornpetent in all the learned profess sjons until t is now little short of gresumptfon for the members of any
