Liner MAKlRA
d. .::.. BOOKED FULL
.i3gT D.. f2;;. - UHHHAI"

Booked to the limit with first, sec
ond and third class passengers, the
Canadian-A Australian liner Makura to
arrive at Honolulu ON September 11th
from Vancouver and Victoria emphas-
ICES the need of one or more larger
liners on the run between the north
west coast of British Columbia ant
the Hawaiian islands.
According to report received here,
the list of passengers for the Makura
will tax the available capacity in this
ship. =
In this: connection comes the .decla-
ration that The Union s. s. Co. the
parent company of the Canad. an-A Aus
tralian line, contemplates establishing
feet of comparatively fast cargo
vessels between Australia and Vancou-
yer to run in addition to it's present
passengers service.
Already, as announced in. the Star
Bulletin" the company has chartered
a cargo boat to load at Vancouver and
San Francisco during September or
October, in order to relieve the con-
gestion of the mail fleet. So far the
VI ILIC S1ACl lSl GU 'OOoS1 mas hOS
been announced.
There is likely to be a change soon
in the mail feet, for the Mariana will
probably give way to the Niagara,
which was recently launched in Great
Britain. When she takes up her run
ming, in all. probability the Mariana
will take her place in the intercoloniat
trade, and the fleet will then COM
promise the Niagara, Makura and the
Zealandia. For months there have
been rumors that the Zealandia would
be taken off at an early date, but SO
far there is nothing definite to these.
1t was not thought that the Zealaudia
would stay on the service as long as
she has done, for she belongs to the
Huddart-Parker Proprietary, and was
built fog the inter-colonial service She
has been running for two years and
has grown very popular.

HIGH PRAISE FOR
NORMAL SCHOOL

Honolulu's Normal School is called
an Ideal school, with which only
three others in the States compare, in
letter received by Principal Edgar
Wood from D. P. Mcconnell, B. A.,
superintendent of schools, Queensland,
Australia, in which he praises highly
teaching methods used in the local
Normal School and says, Il have
looked in vain for anything approach
ing your ideal school"
In his letter, the Australian edu-
Gator writes:
You are right in the front of edu-
cational ideals You have psychol-
ogy, reason, physiology, and common
sense behind you. | saw for the first
time how education might be made
according to nature. Your sympathy
and genius have done it for you in
Honolulu.
You have a great variety Of peO-
pie, of languages and inherited ideals
to cope with. BY going to the heart
of human nature you meet them all on
common ground and from that meet
ing place the ascent is easy. The
effect could be seen in every face
among your pupils.
The three schools which Superin-
tendent Mcconnell refers to as being
ideal, but secondary to the Honolulu
Normal School, are DR.. Dewey's school
in connection with Chicago UniTer-
sity. William Baldwin's Normal School
at Hyannis and the Speyer School in
New York under Teachers College.
Mcconnell paid his mentioned visit
to the local institute of learning in
1908. Principal Wood has incOrpor-
ated the letter in a seven-page type
written defense of the local school
which he has recently completed.
