ONE OPPORTUNITY


A Greater Honolulu Chamber Of Commerce
would have before it numberless opportunities
for constructive community work Here is just
brief mention Of what that progressive organi-
zation, the Winston-Salem North Carolina)
Board of Trade is doing
1t is helping to train boysafor citizenship.
The school authorities established course for
high school seniors in government and econom-
les, and put it under the direction Of the secre-
tary Of the Winston Salem Board of Trade The
course is foundation course in the principles of
economics and government, but with special ref
erence to the industrial, commercial and agri-
cultural problems Of the United States, particu-
larry the Southern States
Next a Juvenile Club" was organized among
the boys, in connection with the Board of Trade,
the purpose being to have the boys check up their
theoretical knowledge gained in school with the
practical, everyday problems of an industrial
center, such as Winston-Salem is. Boys in the
club were granted all the privileges of regular
Board of Trade members, except voting They
were allowed to take part in debate and were as
signed to committee work. Before entering the
club they took the aAthenian OATH whereby
tuty pfOlIsed titct W Inc Sncse luCstAS VI
civic righteousness for their city.
One Of the first tasks assigned the boyswas to
assist in the industrial survey Of Winston Salem
which the Board OF Trade is making. Students
who had been specializing in tbeseconomics and
government department of the high school were
chosen for this work In this way they are get
ting 4 first.hand knowledge of organized indus
trial efforts in its relation to the welfare of the
community
The Winston Salem plan trains the boys OF
the city directly for citizehship; first, in the
high school, where they ase falgt the principles
Of civil government and Instructed in the the
Dries and basic problems governing our economic
order; second, in the juvenile club, where they
have the means Of being identified with the real
work Of municipal development, and take part
il actual social and industrial inFestiga An
opportunity is thus provided for the boys to
study at close range the varied industries OF the
city under competent directionand in an official
capacity
In brief, the plan contemplates, first, teaching
the boys how to live; and, second, equipping
them with an education whereby they can make
q living, which, in the end, is the real secret OF
practical training for intelligent citizenship

MORE MAINTENANCE and LESS POLITICS

In brief, crisp and forceful sentences they

value of the papers read was that they broadeneu
out beyond the details OF No. stone and wafer

They dealt with the relations between the
county engineers aud the supervisors, between
the public and the county officials. Inc loan
fund commission plan was touched upon An
excellent outline of the state-aid plan was Iur-
nished by Mr. H. K Bishop.
The two points that stood out above all the uls-
onss;on Of Hawaii's present county road-build-
ing systems were:
1.,fa;ntenqnce of eristing roads.
2-Separdtion of county engineering 'eorS
from superpisofial politics

FIRST FOOTBALL
GAME OCTOBER 4

The first game CT the football series
this year will be played on Alexander
field on October 4. The game will be
between teams from Fort Shafter
and Punahou. Captain lnman drew
up the final arrangements for the
game yesterday. There will be other
teams In this league, but this is the
only scheduled game so far.
Mckinley will enter a team, and
the town boys will probably make up
another eleven. Kamehameha again
thought seriously of entering a team.

streets and highways. The address by CounI
Engineer Moragne of Kauai and that by Hug
Howell Of Maui touched strongly upon the fol-
of letting roads go unattended to, and it w
TO just such pieces of sound advice that the Lad
men among the delegates listened most eagerl
Several of the papers mentioned the wisdo|
of selecting good road engineer and of then |
lying upon his judgment for results. The idl
is that the engineer, the skilled road-buildii
expert, should be given large authority in han
ling read problems and large responsibility f
results.
That is the ideal, and it is fair to the superb
ors of Oahu to say that they are striving towai
that ideal They are confronted by conditiot
not of their own creating, but they are, on q
whole, endeayoPing to raise the standard of eff
cheney in city and county administration.
To stand by them, to advise with them, is 4
part of good citizenship. And the supervise
should not and will not resent justified critici$
if it is given to help them.

PRISONERS AND R0AD.EORK

Engineer Southworth of Hawaii urges the d
ployment of prison labor in building roads in
islands. OF interest in this connection is the
vestigation of a mainland newspaper, the Chi
go Daily News, which comes to the follow
conclusion:
II one happened upon gang of forty-five me I
working road Dixon, in Lee county, iii.
nos, would receive visual suggestion that theJ
were convics lately locked up in Joliet penitentary
They do not wear the prison stripes. They are moi
anchored with ball and chain. They are not evet
watched by armed guards. And they are to work for
two months cutting state highway through hill.
Not more than ten years ago. perhaps. the idea
that prisoners might be allowed SO much freedom
Of action would have generally created scornfu
laughter. But the honor system applied to convict
has been tried In other states and has proved Il
worth It has been demonstrated that when men
Of certain types who have beeniocked up give Their
word that they will not run away II allowed thor
liberty to perform work ID the Open their word 81
kept in great majority Of cases. 49, 81
The explanation lies in the fact that all the good
is not squeezed out of man merely because he has
committed some offense against the state and been
sent to penal institution The chief probation of-
ficer of the state of Oregon where the honor system
is in operation defines 1t as that system Of treat
mon Of prisoners in which we recognize some of the
dependable qualities of the men and put these men
on honor to these qualities in service for the
state and in which we substitute for kicks and
frowning guns, so far we able other incspt-a
ives to be somebody and to do something" In this
way he says, new emphasis is laid on that part Of
the constitution of his state which declares that
laws for the punishment of crime shall be founded
upon the principle of reformation and not of vim
dictive Justice" =
When mans loyalty, his friendship, his sympa-s
thy and like traits appealed to- the will or
dinary respond, even though he has been convicted
of crime. 1t pays to return him to society decent
citizen but this is virtual impossibity when vim
dctive Justice applies So the warden of Joliet pen
itentiary shows wisdom in seeking judicious exerl
else of the honor system under new law of this
state.

Supervisor Lester Petrie this morning gave
the convention delegates heartto-heart talk on
the troubles of public life. 1t is undoubtedly
true that Hawaiian communities are prone to
frequent criticism, and yet the present Honolulu
supervisors have been given considerable praise
since they went into office. When the dominant
faction stood by two Republican department
heads, Engineer Whitehouse and Fire Chief
Thurston, Mr.. Petrie and his associates were cor
daily praised So long as the board stands for
what it believes is right, refusing to bow to ex-
pediency and petty politics, it will be lauded by
the majority of people here, even though few
kicks arc forthcoming.

Testimonial to Rev. Father Edward
Reynolds by Many Citizens.

Last evening Union hall was
crowded with friends and admirers Of
Rev. Father Reynolds, the occasion be
ing reception rendered to him by St.
Charles parish and many of the bust
ness men Of Bellows Falls. In the 80
years in which Rev Father REYNOLDS
has been the priest Of st. Charles he
has won the respect and love of host
of people of this vicinity without re
gard to church creeds, and great disap-
pontment is felt ut his removal. 1t is
probable that he viii be appointed over
a smaller parish because Of his advanc-
ing age.
At last evening : function Dir. J. T.
Ridden acted as master OF ceremonies.
and j. j. Fenton rs usher The greet
lnGs given the guest of honor were
warm and heartfelt \ number of NOM
bers of the parish spoke words of APP
probation, and purse was presented
to the departing pastor containing ST.

the regard of many friends. Rev.
Father Reynolds responded in feeling
manner and Rev. Father !. D. Shan
non, who succeeds to the parish, spoke
PIN a very tactfu and pleasing way.
The event was one which win be long
remembered by those taking part in it.
