He came Just the night before you

His answer settled everything in my
mind. Cook was Crandall. The ar
rival of Cook in the village coincided
with the departure of Crandal from
New York. The haste in which he
had departed was eXplicable by the ar
rival of the old woman on that train.

Brought UP at the meeting, one being
that the larger department stores
adopt plan of ornamenting the fronts
OF their establishments with potted
palms or lowering shrubs, which
would serve to greatly improve the
appearance. This plan is now being
carried out by one or two Of the
stores, and the committee hopes that
all the merchants win in time follow
the plan.
The committee, composed of Viii
lard brown and Frank Thompson,
which was appointed some time ago
to investigate the feasibility of new
automobile club for Honolulu, reported
at the meeting that they heartily en-
dorse the plan, and that the co-opera-
ton of many persons has been secured
in carrying the plan through. 1t has
been planned TO use the entrance fees
to the new club for the purpose of
erecting main garage in some CEN
trail pari of the city for the use of the
members. This garage would house at
least 200 machines and would not cost
more than $4,000 A corps of me-
Chanics and attendants would be en-
p. Dyed, and room would be set aside
for the use of the members, the room
to be fitted up in modern style and
contain a complete library of all mo-
tor publications. Gasoline and oil
would be on sale at prevailing rates,
and it is the plan of those promoting
the work to make the garage self
supporting, thereby making the dues
very nominal.
Letters of local Importance were
read at the meeting, among them be-
ing communications from Bishop
Henry B. Restarick and DR.. John W.
Wadman. both Of whom are doing ex-
cellent promotion work on the main
land through the medium of lectures
upon Hawaii. Motion pictures of

VOCATIONAL
TRAINING in
SUMMER SCHOOL

Vocational training-the develop
meht of a young mind to fit II for an
occupation suited TO it--has become
enc OF the most important subjects
at the normal school this summer, and
before the summer term for persons
preparing to be teachers is over, a
clear idea viii be had of what voca-
tional training attempts to accom-
plish. Especially will this be so IL
the efforts OF @. s. Raymond, OF the
Office OF the superintendent Of public
instructions, are rewarded with the
success promised.
With $4,000 appropriated by the
last legislature for vocational training
or guidance. and with the subject to
be taught beginning with the fall
term in all the large schools of the
territory. interest in the subject has
been growing rapidly, and the per-
sons preparing at the normal school
this summer to be teachers are grasp
ing the idea OF the subject and show
Ing enthusiasm over its possibilities.
Numerous lectures will be given on
the subject before the months term OF
the normal school has expired. The
first lecture was given by Mr.. Ray
mond himself. at the school the latter
part OF the week. Others are in pro-
cess of preparation.
Beginning with the fall term there
will the three schools on Maui to
teach the subject, Paia, Waikiki.
and Lahaina. On Hawaii 1t will be
taught at Honomu, Keaau, Makekau.
Holuloa, Konawaena, Kukuihaele, and
Paauilo; and on Kauai il will be taught
at Hanapepe, Lihue and Kapaa.
In Mr.. Raymond's address he gave
review of the entire scope of the
vocational training as II stands today.
He traced its development in other
parts of the country, and the practic-
al work II has accomplished
AT this time 1t may be- he said.
that we cannot say with positive GER
tainty what occupation child should
follow; but we can say what occupa-

items he should not pursue; which is
thing just as important.
The health Of pupil, his natural
inclinations and special talents-all
are taken into consideration in the yo.
cational work.
such training Is not an experiment
in the country; ii has been tested
and shown to be sound. On the main
land, i'm many cities, it has been thor.
oughly tried and always found to be
a success. As the science of psychol
ogy develops, vocational training will
deyelope with it; and in time to
come there is no doubt but what we
will not only be able to tell student
what occupation not to follow, but
also the one TO follow.
Those we generally call failures
the men who have not succeeded--are
in the majority, those who have at
tempted the wrong work, a born car
penter striving to be lawyer, or a
bern mining engineer measuring call
co in a drygoods store. The first steps
toward any success is in the knowing
OF what to do and what not to do,
Vocational training is the answer to
the questions.

When the contract was let, the con-
struction of the building was put I'M
der the supervision of the architects.
They were to be held solely respon-
sible for the structure, in place of hay-
ing the responsibility divided, which
proved disastrous heretofore.
Rigid Examination.
[ The Deputy SneriT and Coroner
Rose will pursue rigid investigation
of the conditions found at the new
armory building which are alleged to
have led to the death Of Anderson,
following visit paid to the uncom-
pleted structure by that official in
company with six members OF his
jury.
Monday afternoon is the time set
for resumption of testimony OF a
number CT persons, whom the coroner
believes may be able to shed consid-
cradle light upon the work carried. on
and the material used in the erection
of the new territorial armory.
The engineering staff identified
with the territorial government, it is
said, will be called upon for technic-
al opinion, concerning the weight OF
the material used in the uprights as
well as the long trusses that have
been brought here to enter into the
construction of the armory.
The personal inspection made by
the jurors is said to have brought to
light what is believed to be a grave
weakness in the stability Of the trus-
ses.
One truss which yet remains in po-
sition is alleged to be much bent and
twisted, though partially held in posi-
tiCn by block and tackle as well as
supported underneath by heavy
wooden scantling.
1t is the opinion of some who visit
ed the site this morning that not only
is weakness shown in the uprights
placed to support the superstructure
but in the trusses to be used to sus-
tain the roof.
In the opinion Of Coroner Rose, the
Investigation may take several days
to complete. 1t is the present inteH-
ton to call such witnesses as might
be able to shed light upon the meth
eds generally in vogue in steel and
iron construction.
