VOCATION PLANS
tcontinued from Page y

Wilcox and Mrs. Bond. This commit
tee will cooperate with Superintendent
Willis T. Pope and Inspector Gibson,
and also with the special committee
which called on the meeting. In case
such a vocational guidance system
were established in Honolulu. it would
place the islands in line with modern
educational work on the mainland,
Commissioner Farringtons report
on vocation training said:
There is steadily widening inter-
est in practical education for Hawaii's
boys and girls in many schools, as
the opportunity offers, the teachers
are taking up many lines of industrial
and domestic science, that are of
especial value. In this connection we
would call particular attention to
what has been done at the Normal
school where the MONDAY lunch
problem has developed first class
school in home cooking and the sew
ing class has become an establish
mens for practical dressmaking. Here
the foundation is being laid among
the future teachers of the public
schools for a corps of teachers who
will be able to develop the practical
side of education when assigned to
positions in the public service.
Hawaii needs vocational high
school in each county of the Terri
tory. these manual training schools
should be available for the pupils who
may net be quick in book learning"
but is apt in some branch of the
trades not excluding agriculture.
Maui with the Lahainaluna school
comes the nearest to having such an
institution of any county of the Ter
ritery. This institution is of course
open to students from all parts of
the Territory. Right here we desire

"ROGUE RIVER PUBLIC
SERVICE CORPORATION

A letter to the Commercial club
from Geo. Sanders who is at present
in Chicago, announces the organiza-
tion of the Rogue River Public Ser
vice Corporation" the purpose OF
which company is announced upon
the printed letter head as the manu-
racturing of hydro-electric power and
current and the providing OF water
for irrigation and for domestic pur-
poses. Geo. Sanders is president OF
the company; Frank NJ. Fauyre, vice
president: Ovando G. Beebe, treas
urer: Robert f.. Gaut, consulting en-
gineer, and Geo. W. Soranson seere-
tary. The principal place of business
is Grants Pass, Oregon, but offices
are maintained at both Chicago and
indianapolis, and the company is in
corporated under the laws of the
state of Oregon.
II is said that the new company
has it's plans well along toward ma
turity for the taking over of the
bitches. dam, etc, of the old irriga-
ton company, and will soon be In
position to assure the Rogue valley
an adequate supply Of water for irri

GALORE. ELECTRIC
co. BRINGS SUIT

The California; Oregon Power Co.
has instituted proceedings in the
United States district court at Port
land to stop the city of Grants Pass,
through its mayor and council, from
putting into effect certain reductions
in rates charged within the city by
the power company for electricity for
light and power.
Nearly a year ago the council
passed an ordinance making maxi
mum charges that public service cor
porations could charge for electric
service and for water within the city.
The California-Oreg company con-
tinued to collect at its old rate, and
rendered bills to the municipality at
the old rates. The council audited
the bills at the rate established by
the new ordinance, and the company
accepted these warrants only as par
tial payment, and now brings suit
to recover the difference, the amount
named being $3,266.10. Injunction
is also asked to prohibit the city
from interfering with the company
agents pending the hearing of the
case, a recent ordinance having been
enacted to put into effect the reduc'
tion of the rates.
The power company maintains
that the law of 1905, under which
the city attempted to reduce the
rates is illegal and that the ordi
nances enacted under it are void
Should the federal court suppor
this contention 1t will mean tha
municipalities have no right to fi'
rates for electricity for heat, ligh
and power.
Copies of the complaint in the sui
were served upon the various mem
bers of the city council Tuesday fore
noon.
