CLEAN
AMID FLOWERS

81 like yoursbeautiful shop and yotir
jewels are wonderful, but the most
wonderful thing tome is the flowers.
is the remark that visitor at Wall &
Doughery's made one night this
week 1t was early in the evening
and the big shop ON Bishop street was
filled with Christmas, buyers. And all
around, in amongsthe cleaning show
cases, high on the wall-stands and
in and around the handsome furnish
ings of this new fjewelry store were
masses and masses of flowers and not
cut flowers, but flowers in pots. The
scarlet poinsettia was particularly in
evidence Some of the visitors spent
almost as much time admiring the
flowers as the jewelry, cut-glass or
other ware ~
This Christmas season is a
splendid one for us" said Arthur F.
Wall, commenting on the prevailing
spirit Of good cheer and happiness
in buying that seems typical of the
brightly-lighted shop. I'VE have, as
you know, been in business but
short time anG our opening stock was
very large, so that with what we
ordered especially for the holiday sea-
son, we have carried an unusually
large line of goods that appeal to the
holiday shopper. Yet the demand has
been great. The Christmas season in
Honolulu has certainly been some
thing for the merchants to wonder at.
There is of course, always a de-
mand for jewels at Christmas. We
find also that such pretty, delicG1e
and tasteful gifts as gold and silver
mesh bags, platinum wrist watches
and the like are very popular. There
is a large demand for leather goods
this year, and we are glad to say that
our line is not to be surpassed.
Many people like the idea Of giving
watch for Christmas. The Hamilton
watch, in which we specialize, is eX-
ceedingly POPULAR, and we carry sew
eral other highgrade watches also.
One indication of the trade We
have been doing is the fact that our
engravers are simply overwhelmed
with work. | thought that one en-
graver could do the work, but the sea
son opened up so briskly that | had
to secure another"
Typical of the taste and aptnesS
that characterize the offerings of this
shop is the finely engraved Christmas

to walk the streets to keep warm, as
there is no tentage to spare here.
Major E. J.. Undertake, command
ing the artillery district, is not in
clined to accept the newspaper state
ment as authentic, believing that he
would have been informed of any
such orders. O::cers at department
headquarters, however, credit the
news, and are busy figuring out the
disposition of the companies. This
morning AGjutant General Campbell
took the matter up with Chief Quar-
termaster Cheatham, and the latter
will probably cable to division head
quarters regarding tentage.
The officers who will come with the
10th company are Captain Station,
Lieutenant O'Hara and Lieutenant
Harrison. Captain VIM H. Peek has
been assigned to the 6Sth within the
last few weeks, the other o::cers of
the company, according to the last
army directory, being Lieutenants
Pepin ard Barr. The 10th company
has been at Fort Barry. and the 6Sth
at Fort Winfield Scott, both on San
Francisco. bay. Neither is a mine
company, however. which eliminates
Fort Armstrong as a permanent sta
ton for either.

may conclude the extremely techni-
cal job today.
Does janitors' services, as provided
for in the new budget, mean merely
Service" or does it include the jani-
tors supplies? This is an important
item in the budget, and the question
proved a tartar to the members of
the newly-organized board. 1t was.
however, only one of a number of
similar problems the members were
called upon to solve, and which they
eventually were compelled to refer toI
the attorney general for legal opin-
ion. If janitors' supplies are not in
cluded, by law, under the head of
janitors' service, should it come UNI
Ger the head of maintenance, orI
school supplies? Should it be under
the general or the special fund. If it
is under the one, the Territory must
pay for the janitors' supplies, and,l
will materially affect the tax rate; i'll
under the other the counties must pay
for it. - .@, %..
d. L. Conkling appeared before the
board today as chairman of the
school committee Of the Kalihi I'M
provement Club and persuaded the
board to insert an appropriation of
$4,000 for the erection of a four-room
bungalow school for the Kalihiwaene
school. His request was for an APP
preparation of $4,000. for fourteen-
room building, but the board ruth |
lessly pared it down to the much
smaller figure. Mott-Smith is. chair
man of the board.

that will be necessary to use in the
immediate future to provide for the

AS yet, however, no estimate has
been made of the running expense of
the territorial wharyes, affOrding a
definite basis from which the rate of
taxation might be figured. The fig
ures at present compiled show merely
the total cost of the various piers, with
the revenue derived from those in
Honolulu during the year from Octo-
Der !, 1911, to September 80, 1912.
The total cost of all the territorial
wharves,- in Honolulu and elsewhere,
is 1887 ,00159. The total revenue de-
rived during the past year by the ter
ritory from them was $44 ,691.1S, all
coming from those in Honolulu. The
cost of the Wharves on the other ISL
ands is $4,000. and of those in Ho-
nolulu, $1,247,701.59.
