SAFETY DAY.

Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin.
Si-:-A rev feature in TIE instruc
.tion Of tne caildren in the city Of New
York has been designated Safety
Day \ coupe Of months ago it was
observed for the first time. and met
with instant approval
The chief part of the instruction is
given by the teachers to the pupils in
the care and caution to avoid acct
dents in. every day life especially such
accidents as arc likely 10 occur when
crossing streets in the crowded COM
.mnnities. This is for the younger
children. For those who are older
there is special instruction in the care
and caution to be used when engaged
in the usual industrial occupations.
This may be considered by some as
|;fad. but a second thought on the sub
-ject will convince them that il has its
value, and such an instruction day in
this city would not come amiss, for
there is hardly a day passes that
there is not child hurt on our streets
by some vehicle.
In way this new safety day"
teaches the child to think. and to be
careful while on the street II is the
thoughtless child that is usually in
jured,
The average child, as it grows old
er, who has received certain amount
of training in the safety day" in
Istruction, will naturally exercise a
caution in the handling of every day
appliances that are used in the fac
tory, the mill, the cannery. and there
would be but little need of the COM
pensation bill'' act.
This safety day" instruction would
take but few days out of the school
year. and it would seem to the writer
that it would be far more profitable. to
the child than teaching 9-year-old
boys to knit little worsted hammocks
| for dolls. NJ +. G.

MAINTAINS Did
MARVEL MUCH
At TWO tunnels

A question which has caused con
siderable speculation on the Part OF
number of Manilans who have
visited the waterfront during the
past few days has at last been set
tied, saws the times 1t pertains TO
the two French cruisers Montcalm
and Duplex, which have been lying
in the harbor for the past week, and
the query is, why does each of the
cruisers have its tunnels placed IN
such a peculiar fashion two forward
and two aft-instead of the center OF
the vessel, as is customary in the
funnel arrangement of other ships?
An answer to the question was
obtained yesterday by John {. Leon
ard, of Pasig, and reporter for the
Times, who went on board the Mont
calm during the afternoon with the
express purpose IN mind of obtain
ing a satisfactory. answer to the.
enigma. After satisfying themselves
that their visitors were not German
spies, who had come aboard TO set
fire to the ammunition chambers, the
explanation of the puzzle.
''The reason for. the arrangement,
which is that of nearly all French
cruisers of the Montcalm and Dapleix
type, is that they. have two sets Of
boilers" said one of the officers.
One set is in the forward part OF
the vessel, and the other aft, and
each set has two tunnels, which, OF
course. are set directly over them
In the ordinary arrangement of
boilers, it is impossible for vessel tel
proceed unGer its own control in the
event that some accident befalls
them. In this, however, the boilers
are entirely independent: of each
other. and in the event that one set
is placed out of commission power
may be furnished by the other set. /
This is OF especial value. during
actual warfare, as shells would have
to pierce both sets Of boilers to
render the vessels helpless" ~ ......-.

PESTS OF TWO KINDS.


Sir: noticed an article in your
paper the 18th inss. in regard to
Strange blight now menacing
p.neapples in Kauai
Now LOCKING back some 20 years or
more, | remember when Mr.. Joe
Marsden brought into the country the
mongoose for the purpose of killing
off the rats, which were then doing
damage to the canefields. What was
the consequence?
We Socn had no birds TO speak OF,
and the mongoose is still thriving on
such delicacies as chickens, turkeys,
pheasants, quails, etc. And though
the mo1goose may have killed of a
large number of rodents, yet at this
date the government is spending
quite sum to rid the country of
them
Later on. the agricultural bureau
brought into the country another pest
to kill off the lantana. Well and good.
This was accomplished to certain
extent, but this very pest is now de-
priying us of our home fruits, man.
goes, oranges, lines, peaches, guavas,
etc. This later pest, so it has been
said, is the so-much-talked-of Medi-
terranean fly.
Now as an island-bprn, with my
country's interest at heart, and hav-
ing talked to quite few on this most
important question. think Gas good
many others do that instead of our
scientific friends hunting up new
pests to bring into the country to kill
off this Mediterranean fly, why not
let every one sacrifice and destroy all
their fruits for say couple or three
years to come and in that way starve
