SUPERVISOR EBEN LOW-We
have the mongoose for cleaning out
rabbits and rats. There should not be
the slightest alarm over the rabbit
increase feared, Niu, near Koko Head,
twenty-five years ago was almost over

Since the introduction of mongoose
they have disappeared and none are
to be seen or found in that vicinity

ARCHIE ROBERTSON believe
that many a good fish is lost in these
waters by fishing too deep. Recently
while I was fishing forthy fathoms
deep a friend of mine in the canoe
threw a spinner overheard and let the
tide, which was strong, keep it re-
volving. In minute or two he had
big strike but his tackle was not
strong enough to hold the fish that he
had hooked. There are certain fish
which keep going and coming in COM
paratively shallow water and 1 am of
the opinion that they would amply
reward any attention shown them by
anglers.

LITTLE INTERVIEWS


E. r. STACKABLE-So far we have
not received any intimation to change
the method of passing import entries.
JUDGE WHITNEY-No wonder
there are so many Japanese divorces,
when we permit of photograph mar
riages at the immigration station.
w. T. RAWLINS--To send Duke
Kahanamoku to the New York Olym-
pic games would be one of the finest
pieces of promotion work possible.
HERMAN BIGGS-You ought to
read the comments of The Stuffed Club
on our banana crusade, with some
pungent quotations from the Star
H. P. WOOD-When they get hold
of the tent city idea at the beach as
they have at Coronado there will be
a big and very satisfactory increase
of local accommodations.
CHARLES STANTON don't care
how many babies are born on Kaimu-
XII Land Company land to collect $25
apiece from the company, just so they
don't come in pairs or worse.
JOHN DETOR-Dwelling houses are
at premium in Hilo, and the worst
of it is that property can not be bought
within striking distance of the town
OIL which to erect new buildings.
JOHN SMtTH-To the average man
all small birds are chippies, all in
sects bugs and all fish either rock cod
or bass. A man told me that he caught
fine bass fishing at Kahala the other
Sunday.
SYDNEY JORDAN am aston
ished at the way in which the mer-
chants of Honolulu accepted the
Floral Parade posters for display in
their stores. Everyone seemed anxious
to give as much publicity as possible.
JOHN FLEMING am opposed to
the rule of the Stock and Bond Elk
change that permits of sales not being
reported if any member objects. But
as long as the rule is in force, l might
as well take advantage of 1t.
WALTER M. KENDALL-Thes stock
market is remarkably active for this
time of year. Everybody is consider
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-01-10

There will be no break in the har-
mony that has always existed. or
course, there are some people who
are conservative and do not want TO
see any change, but these people will
be willing to have anything they do
not understand explained to them.
Everything can be done to the salts
faction of all.
Plenty of time is being given for
the members to think the proposals
over, so it is certain that there will
be no trouble whatever"
No Material Changes Apparent.
DR.. Scudder handed The Star rep.
resentative a copy of the present con-
stitution and rules, side by side with
the proposed changes. A hurried
glance over them revealed no mate
rial differences. Article one of the
constitution will read, under the new
form "This church shall be known
as the Central Union Church of Homo
lulu. While interdenominational, it
is affiliated to the historic churches of
Hawaii" The only change in this is
that the last sentence has been
added.
Article four says that the officers Of
the church shall be a minister, asso-
ciate or assistant minister, or minis
ters as desired, four senior deacons,
four junior deacons, six deaconesses,
two councillors, two chief ushers, a
clerk, a treasurer ard a Bible School
superintendent; all of whom shall
constitute the standing committee.
The old article called for a pastor, six
deacons, six deaconesses, standing
committee, a clerk and a treasurer.
How old the rules were may be
gathered from the fact that the month
of December, 1887, was given as a
date after which elections could be
held, so that the rules predated that
year.
The trustees will serve three years
instead of one year, if the new con-
stitution is adopted.
These are the sort of changes that
are sought to be made right through
There is certainly a distinct improve
ment in the form of the constitution,
for under each article is a sub-head-
ing indicating the subject referred to,
such as Name, Membership, Voting
Members, Officers, and so on, thus
showing at a glance what is contained
in each article.

HELP rHE uNFoRruNArE.

Editor Star: 1t has been suggested
to me that if the condition of the
many unfortunate children of this
city is to be improved the parents
and homes of these children must be
improved.
In the first place, cottages must
take the places of tenements, so that
more wholesome atmosphere may
surround them, and where more
pleasing environment may shelter and
protect them.
1t is thought if this were done more
of a home feeling would be engel-
dered and the children would not ne
brought in contact with so many OBJ
jectionable incidents.
If these cottages were to have
small lots, but large enough to have
small flower gardens, which would
make them more homelike and more
attractive, it would help them. But
it's a question if anyone in this city
cares enough for the welfare of these
people to go to the expense of build
ing them such homes.
1t is also thought something should
be done to find work for the natives,
many of whom can find nothing ia
do, and in consequence are in more
or less desolate condition.
1t may in some instances be the
fault of these men that they are in
such a condition, but they should be
given another chance.
OF course there is always work on
the plantations for such men, but it's
well known that the native is neither
inclined to nor adapted for this kind
of work.
1t is a sad Cling to see that in thil

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

land of plenty there should be such a
state of affairs and with but little
hope of any improvement.
The political situation is said to be
largely responsible for this unfortu-
nate condition, because as one party
comes into power it naturally looks
out for it's own men, while the outs
must shift for themselves, which
means that they get but little or moth
ing to do until they come into power
again.
Under present conditions there does
not seem much hope of improv'
ing the condition of the parents until
some one will come forward who will
devote his whole time to this purpose.
What seems to be badly needed
here are factories of various kinds,
which will give employment to the
people.
And what is still more needed, is a
home for poor, neglected and desti-
tute children.
Credit must be given to the mem
bers of the Associated Charities and
to Judge Whitney for all the good
that they are doing, but which, unfor-
tunately, is not sufficient to meet all
the demands that are made upon
them. GEO. OSBORNE.
