"Duke'' Did
Fast Work.

Duke, Kahanamoku had a great
trip around the group, and he did
some fine swimming in order to
please his friends. At Puunene,
Duke covered rs yards in Al Sec
onds, and was not extended to the
limit even then. He did one lap
25 yards-in 10 4-5 seconds.
The only criticism that might be
extended to Dukes exhibition, is
that what he calls the Australian
Crawl" is not the real dope. Duke
makes it too "splashy" a stunt.
What is called Dukes Own
Style" is more like the stroke from

Ten Thousand Dollars Structure To
Be EreCted-MOdern Concern
Planned,

That Wailuku is going ahead fast
and that many Improvements are
pla nned for the future, is evident to
those people who keep track OF
current affairs.
The latest big development in
this town is the new store that is to
be erected by the Maui Dry Goods
and Grocery Company. No less
than $4,000 will be expended on
the structure and it will be an up
to-date store building.
The new building will be erected
on the land just makai of the pres
ent store. The structure will be a
two story one, and there will be a
large warehouse at the rear.
The plans and specifications show
that an up-to-date store is to be
built. Both on the ground floor and
the upper one, everything will be
of the best. Resting room for ladies
are to be provided, and comfortable
chairs and lounges will freshen up
the fair ones between their searches
for the bargains that the Maui Dry
Goods intend to present.
Furniture and shoes will play
prominent part in the new store.
A fine stock has been selected and,
when opened up, should attract at
tention.
A cash carrier system is to be in
stalled, and that will be a great
convenience.
The plate glass windows which
will adorn the front of the store,
are said to be the best possible to
obtain. Even Honolulu Stores have
not got the same class of plate glass.
Bids for the construction of the
store will be opened on November
2. J. Holmberg is the architert.

Haleakala was attacked last week
by party of tourist and Promo
ton people. The visit to the ex-
tinct Crater was made with the
object of obtaining moving pictures
of the great crater, cloud effects and
the trails to the summit.
The trip was arranged by the

Burean, accompanied the party,
which consisted of Mrs. HIP. Wood,
R. K. Bonine, Professor Jaeger, w.
o. Aiken, Professor Collais, j. N. s..

pack and saddle animals were taken
along. There were no accidents,
although one mule fell into hole,
and required considerable help be-
fore it could get out.
THE START.
Saturday, October 10, was select
ed for the start, and the party reach
ed Olinda on the evening of that
day. The night was spent at the
hospitable home and, next morning
at eleven o'clock, a start was made
for the summit of Haleakala.
FINE MORNING.
1t was a beautiful morning ard
the party felt in great cheer. Bonine
took a movie" of the start and,
on the way up the mountain side,
repeated the operation several times.
There was no rain at the start of
the ascent but, as the party rode
slowly upwards, the rain began
to come down steadily. When, at
five.thirty in the afternoon the
summit was reached, it was raining
hard and the party was feeling
fairly cold.

what bad fellow Bartlett is, or

the harder it is for him to do more

Professor COllais Tells of New Sys-
tem-Lads Learning Good
Trades.

Professor Collais, of the Kameha-
meha Schools, Honolulu, was a
Wailuku visitor last week. The
Professor went to Haleskala with
the Honolulu party, and then re-
turned to town for few days.
Our slogan is THE Boy and

it will be some three or four wears
more, till the actual results begin to
show.
In the past, graduates of the
kamehameha Schools, have in
many instances, been rather sneered
upon as mechanics. 1t was not the
fault of the boys, as much as that
OF the system. Lads, in the past
were not put to the work that ap-
pealed to them and, consequently,
did not do as we'll as they might
have.

ard set and of the six failures, the
lowest boy attained 63 per cent,
and the highest 741z per cent!
The school is divided into three
classes of students. First, those
lads who pay $50 per year, and
devote one and one-half hours n
day to doing necessary work.
Second, those boys who have but

Tor work on the farm, are given
credit that pays for their tuition.
In the third class are those bows

able to during the school terms earn

Hawaii Used
Best System
Federal Bureau Of Education Re-
cOmmendS "COurse Of
Study"

Up to within the past few weeks
the school system of Hawaii haC
led the way for all America in the
matter of the correlation of Language
study with nature study, the com.
bination being misunderstood by
many, however, and being the tar
get for great deal of criticism,
says the Advertiser. The recent at
tack made upon the course of
study" had for it's basis the criti-
cisms advanced against the nature
study course, although those who
had instituted the course and were
defending it explained, over and
over again, the twofold object aimed
at. As result of the criticisms,
the course was recently eliminated
by name and partially wiped out.
Now comes the United States bureau
of education officially advocating
just what Hawaii had dropped, a
bureau publication just issued con-
tanning paper by Prof. M. A..
Leiper of the Western Kentucky
Normal School on Teaching Lam
guage Through Agriculture and
Domestic Science.
An Introductory note by P. P.
Claxton, head of the federal bureau
of education, says, in part:
One of the most difficult problems
of modern school practise is how to
prevent overcrowding the curricul-
um, breaking up the school day in
to small fragments of time devoted
to disconnected tasks, and dissipat-
ing the energies of the children to
such an extent that the process Of
education is hindered rather than
helped by our attempts to enrich
and modernize the courses of study.
The solution of the problem lies
in closer correlation of subjects
and especially of formal subjects
with content subjects, and it is for
tunate that when the correlation is
well made both subjects can be bet
ter taught and in less time than
either alone. This is especially
true of language, the most effective
learning of which comes, in the
elementary grades, as by-product
of the right study of content sub
jects.
Professor Leiper, in developing
his theme, takes practically the
same ground as that taken by the
advocates of the nature study course
in Hawaii and declares, moreover,
that on the mainland public OPT
Mon is fast crystallizing to this end"
and that ''the time seems not far
distant when all States will demand
such training of all teachers that
1ve instruction in rural schools"
His paper, in part given below, is
worth careful reading by those in
terested in the development of the
rural schools of Hawaii, where the
teaching of English is so essential.
Professor Leiper says:
The city schools of our land
have done much to prepare the
children whom they serve for the
life they are to live. The many
sided life of the city man Or woman
is in general well provided for byl
the various phases of industrial
work that find place in the curri-
cula of many city and town schools,
The rural school should serve the
needs of the country child equally
as well, and should endeavor, as
far as means and opportunity are
afforded, to introduce instruction
along those lines that will instill in
child love and appreciation of
rural life, and should assist other
agencies in giving him a funda-
