LITTLE INTERVIEWS


JACK GIBSON-The purses offered /
by the Hilo race promoters are big
enough to warrant Coast horsemen
paying attention to them.
H. R. JORDAN-The legal depart
ment of the Board of Health is pau.
l will no longer be seen at the old
desk under the banyan tree.
JOHN DEvANEY-A drunk's a
drunk and buns a bum but while
a bum is generally drunk it doesn't
follow that a drunk is a bum.
CAPT. FRED c. MILLER-A steam
ship line between Los Angeles and
Honolulu is needed and its establish
ment in the near future is inevitable.
JUDGE LYMER-I am glad to get
back into private practice, but l do
not regret having the experience l
had with the public during the past
two months.
D. L. WITHINGTON-It interests
me to read returns from South
Dakota election from Fargo, North
Dakota. Maybe the election, after
all, was north. instead of south.
DIAL FAHY-The Western Athletic
Club in San, Francisco has gone by
the boards, thanks to incompetent
management. It has practically been
absorbed by the San Francisco Ath-
letic Club
G. w. r. KING-Pop Splitter would
make a good supervisor. He states
that he is sound on the temperance
question and tells me that he has a
fine line of suits that anybody can
run in without splitting seam.

my approval of the editorial in the

Christian Extension Movement.
think our prayers are having their
influence on the people in the Star
office.
ROSE DAVIDSON-It is a mistake
that DR.. c. r. Rodgers is at the
Kings Daughters home. What was
meant to say was that he was asked
to go there, as he is quite feeble, but
declined and he is now at the home
of my mother, Mrs. Montana, in the
Manoa valley.
w. NJ. PATTEN-The departure of
the cruisers is noticed by the mer-
chants in almost all lines of business.
1t would be hard to estimate the
amount of money spent a month by
the men of three or four such vessels
when they are in port but it amounts
to a big lot in the aggregate.
w. o. SMITH-In the interview
about cemeteries did not state that
the cemeteries ARE in horrible con,
dition." That statement YVES made by
another person who was present al
the interview. l did advocate the es
adjustment of public crematory
stating that the crowded condition Of
the cemeteries would demand action
of some kind very soon.

that everyone of the directors of the
McBryde Sugar Company who visited
the plantation last week were both
surprised and greatly pleased by what
we saw, although all knew before,
hand that things were in good shape

Editor, translate into English for me
the following item which appears in
the Advertisers Passing Hour" this
morning?
Hawaii has announced that it
wants American residents, but
has on it's law book statute,
pessed to give a Chinese-Portu-
guese a police court job, which
prohibits the employment by the
government of any of the coun-
ties of an American who has lived
here less than a year or of an
honorably discharged American
soldier. 1t is time that law was
cut out.
Or is it necessary ITO give a Chi
nese-Portuguese a police court job
so that I may know what the pass

oduriferous. rumbly, gasoline street
car is better than no street car at all.
What il il will not run on tracks?
There will be less chance OF il ever

There will be less chance of il ever

At all events it is one step above
the horse-car. and the horSe-car was
the harbinger of great city railway
systems. We take il that the gaso-

pose. and il is only matter OF time

nected and perfected into great trunk
lines. So it will be in the making of
through" highways. Certain roads
now popular for various reasons will
be improved and connected with 9TH
ers until there will be an ocean TO
ocean highway. a national road.
Columbia is on one of these pro-
iected national highways. Lucky
will she be to land it, If she be-
stirs herself she will almost certainly
do so because this city is one of the
bee line points from Kansas City
to ST Louis.
The first step in securing a ma
tional highway will be to secure org
aniZed effort. Farmers especially
should be enlisted in the movement as
there is no class that will get more
benefit from good roads. Manufac
turers of vehicles and automobiles
who are now among leaders in the
industries of this country would un-
doubtedly contribute literally to the
promotion of systematic plans for ma
tiOnal thoroughfares.
OF course there are people who
will knock. They can't see any
thing to it But there is something
to it whether those people can see it
or not. Good roads. national high
ways. like the early railroads.. are GO

institution so as to place men in busi-
n SIS two years earlier than they now
are He proposes to do this by fur
nishing college education to students
at the age of Is years. This would
in turn be accomplished by cutting
two years from the elementary
school, cutting one year from the
high school course. and inserting a
Junior college course of three years.
Above the college course he would
then have the university, which would
offer an undergraduate course of two
years and graduate courses of two or
more years. Men would thus be able
to obtain a bachelors degree at 20
and enter the professions after COM
pleting the university and pro-
fessional courses at 23 or %.
President JudsOn's plans will un-
doubtedly strike the educational
world as radical. If they are put
into practice students will be able to
finish college practically two years
earlier than they do now. His Sug-
gestiOns should at least set the edu-
Gators to wondering if it is not pos
hibitive by prOlonging it too far be

Learning to Cook Breakfast

; 1t was a cold morning, too early
and too disagreeable for many peo
pie TO be stirring. A heavy mist
hung jealOusly over everything
puddles of dirty water stood on the
streets and sidewalks. The only per.
son to be seen was carefully picking
her way over or between the mud
puddles.
There came frightened squeal as
she bumped into something. "Hor.
rors. she gasped. Il thought il was
man, but it's only a hitching post
| never knew it was SO far to Home
Ec. | hope Mary will be there"
She reached the Gordon Hotel
building at last and started up the
steps. A dark something rose quick
ly from near the door.
That you, Helen" it demanded
Good gracious. yes; but what in
the world are you sitting out here
for? Can't you get in?"
Did you really suppose | would
deliberately walk into that great
big hall by myself when it is dark
as pitch in there"
'Tis kind of scary, but come on
They took hold of hands and felt
their way into the hall and turned
on the lights.
DO you suppose our guests will
come"
Hope not" said Mary. Lets
hurry: it's nearly o'clock"
And the two girls put on their big
white aprons and began pulling
things out of the lockers. The wa
ter was put on to boil and the bread
was cut for toast. The table had
been laid for five the night before
The whole breakfast had been plan
ued in detail; the girls knew the
it miZed cost of every ingredient to
be used. Mercy. yes, they had even
figured that the salt would cost a
quarter of cent and the baking
powder half a cent. The trouble was
in putting the ingredients together
so they would be eatable. Besides
the two guests, the laboratory teach
er would be present to inspect and
grade their cooking, serving and
even their manner of eating. Two
other girls in the Home EcOnOmice
class would act as mattresses.
The meat S done" called Helen.
''Done?" echoed Mary. DO you
know it is twenty minutes Till break
fast time? Turn down the fire and
let it cook slowly. Oh, these potatoes
are burning up. | wonder if the top
ones will do to serve?"
They'll have to do. we haven't
anything else. Why don't those peo-
pie come? Everything will be stone
cold. I'll just bet that new girl will
serve someone wrong because she is
left-handed."

ENTRAVAGANCEO OF AMERICANS.

BY a number of comparisons of the
earnings and expenditures of Ameri-
cans with similar items of the same
classes of people in European coun-
tries. Henry Smith Williams in the
February World Tody. shows that
Americans are the most eXtravagant
and wasteful people in the world.
According to Mr. Williams, Ameri-
can "wilful waste" is due to num-
Der of causes: The poor ape the we'll
tO-dO and these in turn emulate the
rich: the man with a dollar in his
pocket finds some way to Immediately
dispose of it; men mortgage their
homes to buy automobiles. and then
mortgage the machines to buy jewels
and champagne To sum up, Ameri-
cans buy what they do not need as
well as what they do need but can
not afford. They pay too much for
what they get. then waste what is
bought.
Taking all the foregoing into con-
sideratiOn. il is no wonder that an
American with an annual income of
$500 cannot keep family consist
ting of his wife. a child and himself
Nor is il any wonder that in ten lead
ing European countries, to 1000 per-
sons there are 3l3 savings bank de-
positors. while in this country there
are only 80 savings bank depositOrs

HON. IT DOTH CHANGE.

Ii is sad that newspapers. so
earnestly aiming at accuracy, cannot
keep our simple little quatrain
straight, but still it is true. One
prints it as:
Every time | come to town
The boys git to kickin' my dog aroun'.
| don't care if he is hOun',
They gotta stop kickin' my dawg
aroun'.
Another worthy contemporary just
as earnestly prints it this way:
Ev'ry time | come to town
The boys keep a-kickin' my dawg
aroun',
Makes no difference if he is houn'.
They gotta quit kickin' my dawg
aroun.
And there are many. many other
versions with the word lis in the
third line given various degrees Of
emphasis. but what's the use of re-
printing them all?
We should like to append what We
believe to be the correct version. but
who knows but that We ourselves may
be getting it little mixed.

WILSON'S ADVISORS.
Material for the Democratic Cabinet
Beinu Discussed.

Washington, Nov. 7.-Cabinet max
ers are already busy conjurinS with
names of those who will share with
Wilson in shaping the policy Of the
next administration. Necessarily this
II purely gossip, but the cabinet
builders are none the less active in
pointing out the persons and the ele-
ments available as cabinet material.
One of the available elements en-
braces those who were conspicuous
party figures at the Baltimore conven-
ton, including Speaker Clark, Chair
man Underwood of the ways and
means committee, VIM ]. Bryan, Gov
ernor Foss of Massachusetts,, Governor
Harmon of Ohio and some others. 1t
is generally assumed, however, that
Speaker Clark and Chairman Under
wood would prefer to continue their
work in congress, especially now that
the legislative program on the tariff
and other questions is likely to meet
with fewer obstacles.
Another element from which cab
met material is being suggested en-
braces those who have been promin-
emily identified with the Wilson cam
paign, notably Chairman McCombs of
the Democratic national committee,
Representatives Burleson and Henry
Of Texas, Representative Palmer Of
Pennsylvania, Assistant Chairman
McAdoo and a number of others who
bore the brunt of the conflict at Bal.
timore and during the campaign.
