Twenty-Five thousands, eight hun
dred and nine bags arrived from ia
pan during the month and all were
accompanied with certificates OF fu-
migation. After thorough inspection
the shipments were passed as free
from pests. In this connection beg
to report that during last season we
found some bean shipment infested
with the rice moth and thought at
that time that the infestation was
caused by the shipment being in con-
tact with the infested rice shipments.
However, this season we again found
a small shipment of beans infested,
and as all rice shipments had been
fumigated and found free from pests
we now have requested the fumiga.

Thirty packages Of fruit and %
packages of vegetables were eonfis-

infested with weevils (Calandra line

carpus maximus) was so badly in
tested with Scolytid beetles that
hardly a single seed was free from
the pest. The package was first fu-
migated for "a hours and then all was
destroyed by burning. One hydran-

DISCUSS SALARIES OF
KINDERGARTEN TEACHERS

At the fall meeting of the free kind
ergarten association yesterday morn
ing at the Y W. G. A. rooms, the
topic as to whether to have fewer,
but better trained, assistants was dis
cussed. AS the result Of an inyesti-
CATION into the salaries OF the sub
teachers, the persons making the in
yestigation declared that the salaries
paid were inadeuate in return for the
work done. There has been no COM
plant from the girls who have been
giving the mornings to the kinder
garten and have had their afternoons
for their duties at home. After going
into the matter 1t was found that the
assistant teachers preferred this plan
with less money rather than spend
ing the entire day at work and being
reimbursed accordingly. This sub
ject will be more fully discussed at
the next meeting when the rotary
system will be taken up. This sys-
tenn demands fewer teachers but bet
ter trained ones.
During a talk by Miss Lawrence on
the kindergartens Of Honolulu and
their comparison with the schools
employing the Montessori system,
she made the statement that some
portions of this very latest system
have been in use in this city for the
past fifteen years She also gave
some clear definitions of the intri-
cate parts of the system which busy
mothers have not had time to work
out. H.. III

Henry Clews. Of New York, in his
special letter of August 81, says:
There is a worldwide activity in
trade. Great Britain. Germany and
France have all been enjoying unpar.
alleled activity and prosperity. This
extended to both home and foreign
trade. In Germany there have on
several occasions been signs of over
strain, but timely precautions pre-
vented trouble and Indications are
for a continuance of activity for some
time, to come. In Great Britain COM
snercial activity has continued on a
record breaking scale In spite of
threatening social and political
changes. No serious check has thus
far developed, and Great Britain is
looking forward to another season of
profitable activity in her widely scat
tered enterprises France is begin

lduced by political !. radicalism. In
creased commercial aetiyity is not
