DUVALL PRAISES
10th INFANTRY
After Inspection at Manila
Commanding General "a
Speaks Highly.

Major General William p. Duvall,
commanding the Philippines Division,
on December 20 made an unexpected
inspection of the Twentieth Infantry,
headquarters and two 'battalions of
which are stationed in the Department
of LuZon, near Manila.
After his inspection, General Duvall
sent the following letter to Colonel Jas.
A. Irons, commanding the regiment,
which will be OF interest in Honolulu,
as the second battalion of the same
regiment is stationed at Fort Shafter,
in command of Major Dunning
The general said:
The condition in which ! found your
post and command during my recent
inspection is a source of much gratifi-
cation to me In spite of the fact that
YOU had no previous notice of the in
spection until the morning it actually
took place. everything to be observed
about the command was in excellent
condition.
THE commanding general takes TINS
occasion to say that at all times since
it's arrival in this division, the service
of the Twentieth Infantry has been
most satisfactory. The appearance and
conduct of its enlisted men on the
streets of Manila have been not only a
credit to the regiment, but to the entire
army, and have materially aided in
raising the standard of the enlisted
men of other organizations"

Total inspected ..... 946 2O,52S
The Inspector at Hilo reports hay
ing boarded six vessels of which
three carried vegetable matter, con-
sisting of 1872 lots and 3743 packages,
which were passed as free from pests.
Fruit in Good Order.
The bulk of the shipments during
this month consisted of fruits and
vegetables intended for the Xmas
trade and here as well as at Hilo it
was noticeable that especially choice
goods were shipped to the Islands,
The fruit was of large size and good
quality and the vegetables clean, well
packed and selected Brother Newell
records the largest shipment for any
month in the history of Hilo and
adds: Thanks to the good education
the shippers are acquiring, only clean
goods were forderded.
The Japanese rice shipments this
month amounted to 1S,l09 bags and
after thorough inspection we failed
to find any weevils or pests in these
shipments.
On shipment of plants from ia
pan we found the white peach-scale
Aulacaspis pentagOna, the Camellla
scale Pseudaonidia duplex, and the
Small Wax scale Ceroplastes ruscl,
and on a few Camellias we found a
few bag worms ThyriodopteryX sp.
After thorough fumigation each plant
was gone over and all infested foil
age and all bag worms, although
dead, were picked off. From the ORR
ent we confiscated and burned "a

THE TRUTH WELL TOLD.

Don't be afraid to speak i'll OF the
dead. No man that has lived should
be saved from deserved criticism by
the commonplace fact Of ceasing to
be alive. II should WISH" said the
Cardinal de Bernis, that every re-
gard Of politeness be preserved for
the living, but that it might be per-
mitted to speak freely ones mind of
the dead" => .a
Filled as our lives are with daily
shams, there is no more absurd and
abominable sham about us than the
mask of sorrow that we wear to the
funeral Of a rogue. As matter of
fact, the dead, being safe from phys
ical punishment, should be the more
open to such reprobation as their acts
may have courted.
In true sense, "the evil that men
do lives after them" To condone
the faults Of the dead is to corrupt the
morality Of the iving.-Reginald w.
Kaufman, in The Cosmopolitan.

A REAL NEwspAPER.

A newspaper isn't simply q bare
chronicler Of events. It il a personal
ity. It comes into your house almost
as member of your family.
What sort of a person do you like
to have visit you?
He ought to be honest, courageous,
no hypocrite, and gentleman, with
a real interest in you, ready to lend
hand II you need help. Cheerful
ness and good humor are excellent
qualities, and wide range Of in
terests.
What do you find in The Star?
1t has opinions. of course, and 1t
speaks them out freely. They are its
own and they are not influenced by
outside interests. The square deal is
its platform.
In handling news it observes the
decencies and amenities of life. = It
never wantonly brings shame or sor.
row to any home. Its advertisements
are clean.
II the Twin City Star does not
bring you something Of interest in
any particular issue, 1t has failed by
SO much that week. It takes of its
hat and apologies for having bored
you as visitor.
But 1t trusts this doesn't often hap
pen. Not often. does it?

THE TRUTH.

There is today a tendency among
colored people and among their
earnest friends to tell the half-truth
the situation Of the col
ored people and to condemn those
who seek to tell the whole truth.
But where is the harm? many
think. II We tell the good things,
will not the good things multiply and
the hateful things die? No. It is q
dangerous thing to daily with the
truth. Some of the greatest cata-
strophes in history have come be-
cause the mass of men have been
deceived and misled as to the truth
of conditions by timid. well-meaning
persons, who, knowing the awful
facts, suppressed them systematically
and spread the sweet and gentle lie.
There are friends Of black folk In
this land. There Is continual ad-
vance in human sympathy. There
Is an awakening In the white South
on the race problem. All that is
true. 1t is also true that the Negro
American today faces the crisis OF
his career; race prejudice Is rampant
and is successfully overcoming hu.
manitarianism in many lines, and the
determination of the dominant South
to beat the black man to his knees,
to make him docile ignorant beast
of burden, was never stronger than
today. This is the truth. Let Us tell
the truth. unpleasant Though It be,
and through the truth seek freedom.
There is no other way.--The Criss Q.

CHARITY W. ADVERTISEMENT.
The Forum did not send its delegate to
the Inter State Literary which meets
at Wichita, Kan, but they did send
$1,000 to the Natl. Society for the
Advancement of Colored People-and
donated $500 for the Old Folks
Home. These proposals met with
great opposition. We always expect
a lively debate when the melon Is cut.
Some are seeking publicity abroad,
and others are content with dispens-
ing charity at home. Both of our
churches, where the Forum holds its
meetings are in need. Our ministers
have taken a great interest In its
progress. While we advocate the
cause Of charity and race advance
ment, we feel that the Treasures Of
our organizations should not be
looted by individuals, who are simply
parading publicity, or notorety, under
the sweet name Of charity, also that
we welcome the organization Of q
local branch Of this society, whose
existence here would be far better, for
the personal propaganda of its local
leaders; than the Forum, which Ia
supposed by title and purpose to be
long to all of the people. Help the
Attuck's Home by all means. They
need money and management-and
we should help our Advancement So
ciety's whenever able, but above all
should remember that the Forum II
an auxiliary to our churches, and
should share their burdens. II we
fail to do so, our charity clubs win re
mind us. LET Us DO OUR DUTY
