PROMOTION WOOD-The Hawai-
ian play, 1.-THE Bird Of Paradise, Is
Still drawing large k'owds in the East

the Mediterranean and from the Medi-

commerce, withall these new countries
coming into it. Before ten years e.try
valley here will have tunnel through
it and the city of Honolulu be extend

over the face of the earth the sound of chimes
floats over grey cities full of years, or guns
fired at midnight and watchfir blaze on the
hills while shaggy peasantry kneel with their
eyes upon the star that shOne Bethlehem.
In one land there is feasting and mcrriment;
the wassaiI bowl passes amid gusty laughter, the
great boar's-head is borne to the banquettablc;
in another land there is fasting and prayer, lips
moving silently in ayes and paiers.
And in another land the whirl of the fiesta,
or the long ghostly line of huge white lanterns,
borne at dusk under nipa palms. And even as,
the Spanish padres lead the weird procession,
many thousands of miles away devout Manxmen
await the opening of the nyrhhblOssOm, and
elsewhere the Druids mstetoe, it's first employ
ment long forgotten, is hung above the Intel.
Trees ablaze with waxen tapers, bending under
their grateful burdens of gifts, innocent merri-
ment and sanity devotion, the joyous gaiety of
home and family, the serene sanctuary,-they
are all symbols of the spirit of Christmas
it falls with blessed benevoence upon
smoking cities and quiet countrysides; it goes
with the ships down to the sea and rides with
them upon the waves; it finds for each man and
place the SAVIOR of all-embracing love For it,
there is no distance too great, no barrier too
high, no person too humble. The miner on the
cold gray tundra of the north feels the spirit of
the day; the herder on the brown veldt of South
Africa is touched by it. 1t follows the trapperi
pushing sturdily forward into the wilderness. I'll
penetrates jungle and crosses rivers unforded.
T This spirit rests alike upon the man of riches
and the man of need; upon the woman proud
of lineage and wealth and social position and
upon the woman fighting want and dread The
silks and furs bought by gold and the trinkets
bought by silver the layishness of great fortune,
the scrupulous economy of modest care are on a
par Christmas is the mighty leveler of man
kind, for in this holiday season he is truly rich
whose mind and heart are clean and whose
hands have wrought with purpose for the year
that is past, and whether that year has brought
wealth or no is small concern indeed.
The spirit of peace is not, however, the spirit
of passive endurance of. wrong. In this fading;
year of 1912 the sword of a militant Christian

will light the grim camps of armies at the leash
and the Christmas sunset glow red over redder
battlefield. But the army of the right will tri-

GOOD NEWS ON THE TARIFF

The Star Bulletins Washington correspond
ent sums up the sugar-tariff situation in a let
ter published today that should come as a wei
come Christmas gift to Hawaii. The Louisiana
delegation, it is shown, holds the balance of pow
er at present and will certaihly not agree to any
sacrifice of the cane-sugar industry, the Colo
RADIO delegation may be relied upon to protest
against heavy, tariffcutting, and the result will
be THAT no bill involving a disastrous slash in
the present duties can pass Congress. Such, at
least, are the views of the Louisiana senators,
and they are not likely to be Over-optimstic.
Cheer up, pessimists! The more we hear
from Washington, the further the present Con
gress progresses the more the tariff scare is dis
appearing.

Christmas Eve

The moon shed Silv'ry light;
And by my open easement
| gave my thoughts to Che night.
heard the splash of water.
| saw the lights of the town;
And lis sat there dreaming
Game gently my eyelids down.
Back flew to my childhood,
To DAYS when Santa was real;
When this night, many years back,
Filled me- with joyous thrill.
And as dreamed those by-gones
OF PRAYER by the little bed,
A wondrouS light lit the sky
Direct over Diamond Head.
Soon rose a radiant star,
With light that filled all the earth:
The light that led the. shepherds
At that ilIustriOus birth.
1t seemed to beckon to me,
TIC follow its cleaning light;
With ne'er Il thought to resist,
| went out into the night
What transformations [ saw,
AS its rays touched city and town.
! There seemed SanctificatiOn +
From highest to trodden down.
The flinty-hearted grew soft;
The poor, their poverty gone,
No longer did hunger gnaw;
The wretched came forth with song.
Even the little children
That blessed Presence felt, =. -.
And honor that manager scene,
At midnight all cattle knelt.
/ followed throughout the night,
Direct where the bright rays shone,
And this Star of Bethlehem
Led me before throne.

NORTHERN SHOWS SEND
MANY DUCKS SOUTHWARK

Duck hunting is going to be bet
ter tonight and tomorrow morning
than it has been for some time or
local weather observers VIII miss
their guess.
Kansas weather maps indicate
freezing weather and SHOWS from
Nebraska north to the Canadian
line for the last three days. That
means that the big advance guard
Of the duck has already started
south. BY tomorrow night they
will probably have reached this part
Of Kansas. Some Of them may hesi-
tate here short time before going
on south, but it i q safe guess that
the weather that Is due here will
keep them on the move.

AEROPLANE TESTS
PROVE GREAT SUCCESS.

The first Of the aeroplane tests
held at Fort Riley yesterday were a
pronounced success. Battery q
sixth field artillery commanded by
Lieutenant Palmer was stationed at
the foot OF Morris hill while an
Imaginary enemy was located out Of
sight on the other side Of the hill.
Lieutenant willing in aeroplane
number eleven with Lieutenant
Saunds as observer acted as scouts
obtaining the location and range Of
the enemy. This information was
written down and the messages
dropped to the artillerymen when
the aviators flew over them. BY this
means it was possible to shell the
enemy's position accurately.
