her aim to smash the German
merchant marine. A large proportion of the
Germans, of course, are in home ports. Ger
many has also suffered some naval losses, par
ticularly in the armored cruiser class. The
Koenigsberg, 3348 tons, is bottled up on the
African coast. The Mainz, 1880 tons; the Coeln,
1880 tons; the Ariadne, 2618; the Madgeburg,
4478; the Hela, 2003; have been run down by
the British; the armored cruiser Yorcke, $3.50
tons, is given among the authentic lists of Ger
man losses. The 35O0ton protected cruiser
Emden, after dramatic career, was smashed
by the Australian cruiser Sydney. The unpro-
tected cruiser Cormorant, 1904 tons, was found
sunk in Tsingtau harbor after the japanese
victory Among the other losses due to Brit
ish activity are the converted cruisers Spree
wald, Princess Alice, and Kaiser Wilhelm; the
converted mine-layer Koenigin Luise; the sur
veying- ship Move, the submarine U-15 and the
destroyers V-157, S-106 and $50. An unnamed
destroyer was sunk in the North Sea.
Altogether this is a long list, even if most
of the craft are small or antiquated Never
theless, American writer's on naval affairs gen
orally agree that Germany has inflicted more
damage upon the British than the British have
inflicted on Germany, even when taking into
consideration the fact that the main German
feet has stayed in protecting harbors while
the British vessels have been roaming the seas
and thus more exposed to attack

AN OPPORTUNITY IN A SCHOOL.

Schofeld Barracks needs an. additional
school teacher and beyond question ought to
have it. The commissioners of public instruc-
Star Bulletin has no doubt that If the full and
true facts are brought to their attention, they
will supply the needed instructor.
The facts, as briefly mentioned last week, are
convincing. At the present time only three
teachers are employed to teach the full eight
grades and the attendance at the school is large
and growing steadily Those who are person
ally familiar with Schofeld conditions say that
while the three teachers are conscientious
and capable they are given toomuch to handle
and that another Instructor should be employed;
thus giving each two grades to preside over.
) AS to the general policy of meeting the needs
of Schofeld Barracks, there is no question
whatever To afford adequate educational ia
cilities for the children of officers, enlisted
men and civilian employees is aplain duty, and
duty which the department Of public instruc-
ton, one has no doubt, viii meet gladly.
Hawaii's reputation for good public schools is
consistently spreading and itsshould not be
impaired by furnishing inadequate facilities
for the large army population at Schoield Bar
racks.
A large expenditure comes to the community
directly and indirectly from the biggest army
post in the United States. This army post con-
tributes very materially to the prosperity of
Honolulu and the territory. Now there is
offered an opportunity to do something for the
army on Oahu-something tangible and de-
citlediy constructive = Let the territory give
Schofeld school that may be the pride alike
Of the territory and of the army post! Oahu
has been given the largest army post in the
United States-why not give this post the best
school for the children that any post in the
United States possesses Where can few
dollars be better inyested-wher will it bring
larger returnsi 1t will bring these returns
both in the education Of future men and women
o. the United States and in the immediate good
opinion and appreciation of the army commun-
itg and population.
Most certainly it is not to be thought that
Hawaii's school funds are so depleted that
seven hundred dollars cannot be spared fori
this worthy purpose
The army community is not accustomed to !
make requests upon the territory. It is always
ready to answer any request by the Hterritory.
One Of the pleasantest things in this tremendous
nperowth of military population on Oahu in |
very few years is the cooperation between
the civil and military authorities to promoted
the best interests of Hawaii Here is chance
f6r the commissioners of education to fulfil
real need and simultaneously to express the !
desire and determination Of Hawaii's ciyiliani
government to work hand in hand and side by /
side with its military population.
