MUSIC AND IMPERsoNAToNs.
A Delightful Program Last Night at
the High School Auditorium.

The evenings entertainment at the
high school auditorium yesterday was
one of the most pleasing affairs that
has been here in many days. The
ouartette was made up of four men,
a yioIlnist, flutist, pianist and Gel
list. Each one was an artist In MS
line and when the national airs were
played the applause was especially
marked. Besides the music there was
one other feature of the evening. H.
O. Bowman appeared as a humorist
and impersonator. In the latter role
he did some very fine work. lie
pave an impersonation of a Dago just
from Italy, one other was a farmer
of the backwoods settlement VINO
thought his section was about the
only decent section of the country
in the world, another was the over
developed city dude and egotist. Stlil
another impersonation that was very
good was that of school master.
The impersonator made marvellous
changes from one character to an
other and his costumes were changed
on the stage.
The attendance last night was very
creditable. The promoters, VINO nope
to make tie chautauqua an educa'ioh
al feature of the city each year, are
more hopeful Of success.
The bill for this evening is JOS
efsy, the magician. He is a creator
of the finest art in his line and Is
said 70 be the best in the country

weeks to come. Those who see MIN

labor was solidly behind this idea at
one time and now since they nave

.boro are many union labor leaders
who are taking a stand against them
There is but one reason for thel'

scuooLMAsTER PRESIDENT.

The opposition expressed TO WOOL

he was schoolmaster and not haro-

c;nca his inauguration these critics
have mad splendid opportunity 70

SEPTEMBER %, 1913 streets and Highways. The

stfeets ana highways. The address by County
Engineer Moragne of Kauai and that by Hugh
Howell of Mani touched strongly upon the folly
of letting roads 60 unattended to, and it was
to just such pieces of sound advice that the lay
men among the delegates listened most eagerly
Several of the papers mentioned the wisdom
of selecting good road engineer and of then re-
lying upon his Judgment for results. The idea
is that the engineer, the skilled bodybuilding
expert, should be given large authority in hand
ling road-problems and large responsibility for
results
That is the IDEAL and it is fair to the superyis-
ors Of Oahu to say that they are striving toward
that ideal They are confronted by conditions
not of their own creating, but they are, on the
whole, endeavoring to raise the standard of eff
cheney in city and county administration.
To stand by them, to advise with them, is the
part of good citizenship. And the supervisors
should not and will not resent justified criticism
if it is given to help them.
