Sundays Ball Games.

Last Sundays game in Eleele
proved to be a one sided affair.
The McBryde's started off from the
beginning and never had sign of
trouble ahead of them. The score

the locals. The Lihue team played
poorly without any exception could
not hit or pick up a ball that came
their way.
Over in Waimea the champion
MakaWeli team won out 1910. The
latter team made 10 runs in one
winning and after that both teams
showed up poorly.
In Kapaa the plucky K. A. C's
pulled of a victory from the Ko-
loa's. They got it bv the margin
of one run 9-S

kALAHEO SCHOOL
HAS BIG FUTURE

Through tse endeavors of Super
visor w. D. MCBryde, the govern
ment has set aside a seven-and-a
half acre lot, situated on the hill
on the Eleele side of the present
Kalaheo school grounds, upon
which will be constructed when the
needs require, new and modern
school for Kalaheo. Mr.. McBryde
has for sometime felt that the pres
ent school grounds were indequate
and i'll going into the matter, dis
covered that the only available
land for a new site lay along the
road towards Eleele. Getting into
communication with II a IL d
officials in Honolulu, he succeeded
interesting them with the result
that II agreement was reached
whereby the government has set
aside the above lot in accordance
with Mr.. McBryde's views.
Under Mr.. McBryde's guidance,
the ground is to be plowed and
leveled, grassed, fenced, and trees
planted. According to Mr., MCBryde
the new school will not become a
necessity for several years, but by
planting trees and putting the lot
into shape at the earliest possible
date, will mean that when the
building is constructed it will be
the climax to an otherwise most
complete and pleasing combina-
ton
In Walter McBryde, is to be
found the personiGcation of pro-
gressiveness, and ability to carry
to perfection plans for extracting
beauty f + m Mother Natures s
bountiful store. The Kukuiolonc
park, one of the most popular oi
Kauai S parks, is a monument to his
efforts. The beautiful L w
gulch, with its busy cannery and
wayy, feathery, iron-wood trees
the neat little cottages for h c
housing of his laborers, the thrifty
homesteaders with their pretty
homes scattered from Eleele to
within the vicinity of Koloa, the
beautifying of the roads by border
ing them with trees, and nume1 Gus
other improvements, all of which
have for their object, the upbuild-
ing of his district, furnish silent
testimony of Mr.. McBryde's worth
as a promoter who has no superior
and but few equals.
