The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-04-11

At present the question of charges
is left to the judgment of the inspec-
tor in charge of garbage collection,
with the result that seventeen differ
ent rates are now charged, as will be
seen by the foregoing table. If under
the present conditions of the local
treasury it is found necessary to
make any charge, there should be e
fixed standard to cover each class of
service.
The principal feature brought out
by the study of the local garbage
question is the fact that lack OF
proper consideration in attempting to
keep pace with the rapid growth of
the city has allowed a system to grow
up which is not only excessive in cost,
but extremely unsatisfactory in the
quality of service rendered.

commodating ten or more guests, and
such places should be given the same
service as the business section. Col
lections from other parts of the city
should be made at least twice week
Rate of Driving.
1t has been found in other cities
that collectors working in the out
skirts drive at a higher rate of speed
than those working closer in to town,
or, in other words, there is a tendency
of collectors to loaf on the short hauls.
This should be guarded against in the
district of Honolulu. If collectors had
clearly defined responsibilities, and
the collections were made on the
above schedule, there would be no
further cause for complaint regarding
discrimination being shown between
paying customers and the public gen.
orally.
ReceptacIes.
1t should be maze compulsory for
Ireceptacles to be placed at a point on
the premises most accessible to the
person collecting the garbage; much
time is now lost in the city from this
cause. Suitable receptacles for gar.
bage, ashes and rubbish should be fur.
nished by the property owner and the
Regulation Of the Board of Health re
curing all such cans to be kept GOV
cred should be strictly enforced. This
does not appear to be the case at pres
ent in Honolulu.
AS previously recommended in this
report, it is believed that better and
more economical service could be OBJ
tanned by placing the matter Of gar
bage collection and the operation Of
the incinerator under the Territorial
Board of Health, for reasons already
explained.
Operating Cost Sheets.
The most eXpedient method of keep

many have to get away from the drab monotony of their existence. These
people work hard all day at son colorless occupation. and they can't
spare o than five or tel cents, sometimes not even that, for pleasure.
There are plenty of working girls who really can't afford a cen for pleas

son other kind of life for little money. Think of working all day In a
dhngy factory or as stock-grl in a store, and going home to a poor supper
in a meagrely furnished room, n to bd o a very hard bed with not
many covers, and up in the morning and once more to work. And that's
the way hundreds of girls live. Do you wonder they &c to the movies?
II is a good thing there are movies to go to-"
The next night at another large city the sam stream Of young people
were noted pouring into the moving picture shows. The shows engufed
them as a whirlpool sucks in everything IN the current.
But the third day, o. a drive through a large town, a municipal

CHAPTER ~.

Monday morning dawned with a
glory as the sun came up and painted
the hills End valleys with delight.
Flute notes of harmony thrilled from
hitting birds and the incense of fra
grant-fiowers gave JOY to the olfac-
tory nerves as his honor, the mayor
and Mae Andrews tripped down the
front steps Of Squirrel Inn and made
for the boat landing, tho girl in the

lulch basket and fishing tackle.
DO you really and truly believe,
Mr.. Bedight," babbled the girl over
her SHOULDER, that there are lust as

The mayor laid down his burden on
the dock and smiled confidently into

"An unmarried man." he began,

eyes and beautifed by amorous red

the fishing rods. The lunch basket
was hooked with a clever cast and
brought to shore.

about on the beach, until IL wiring

He looked at the dress thoughtfully.
1t was dripping water all about her.
Then his eyes fell upon her big sun
shade. Without a word he picked it
up, walked down the dry beach and
stuck it In the sand, its dome at an
angle OF forty-fve degrees. Then he
came back and sat down on the PROV
Of the boat, his back to the umbrella.

the umbrella.

time. Once he almost forgot and was

In her general direction, when he
heard a discreet cough and Jerked his
head about.face, giving himself up to
the cantanksrous conduct Of a fish

And then from the weedy country
road behind the hill there came voices.

grand officers and standing commit
mittees will report, and the election
and installation of the grand officers
