authorities might wish to make, and
I will give the business my entire per
sonal attention, should the license be

Army and Wahiawa people and to trav-
elers, and may put in a swimming pool

A large number of women of the
w. C. II. L. filed a protest against the
sale of beer near Leilehua. The Anti
Saloon League also filed protest, quot.
ing the chief surgeon of the Army, that
the conditions in the Army are better
since the abolition of the sale of beer
in the Army. Mr.. Patty backed up the
protest by asserting that every whole
sale liquor store or saloon is detri-
ment to the community and that they
are responsible for one man being killed
every month in this community.
Lambert Reprimanded.
The ease of Charles Lambert, pro-
prietor of the Anchor saloon, who was
charged with serving a drunken man
with beer there on the evening of Oc-
tober %, made an explanation stating
that he was not present when the man
was served. At the executive session
the commissioners took into considera-
ton the fact that this is the first of
Tense by Lambert in ten years, and the
penalty decided upon was reprimand
and a recommendation that he suspend
his barkeeper for two weeks.

! license was returned to him on the
ground that he did not have a majority
of the property holders within 1000 feet
