LOOK AFTER THE SCHOOL CHILDREN.

OvercrOwding in IIonoulu's schools is a
condition 50 familiar that somehow it is ac-
cepted as something to be endured without any
strong movement for a change and even with
out much of protest.
Yet it should not be endured.
A special report made to the Humane So
ciety yesterday by Miss Lucy Ward the eff
fcient officer brings the subject sharply up be
fore the community
How long is Honolulu willing to tolerate CON
ditions detrimental not only to the education,
but what is even more important, to the very
health of the boys and girls! How long until a
searching investigation is made and response
bility fixed and remedial action taken
A few days ago it was reported to the Star
Bulletin that the pupils of an Oahu country
school were forced to sit out under the trees,
some needless delay having held back the com
pletien of a school building. Nor is this an ex-
ceptiona ease. Some city schools have been
pointed to as horrible examples Of overcrowd-
ing and lack of facilities for decency as well
as for teaching.
In 1911 the Legislature went on record with a
'tehildren first motto, making the schooi-fund
a first charge on the revenues of the territory
And that is the proper spirit. 1t should be
observed by seeing that the public school pupils
are properly housed.
A statement from some responsible official
seems to be in order.

these Islands approach him in the
proper manner, he will hear our ar
gumeuts fully and carefully and will
act thereafter in a statesmanlike man.
ner
Il do not mean by that that he will
necessarily reverse his policy, but II
we are able to present to him facts
and figures which show that IL is not
for the benefit Of the whole people OF
the United States that the tariff on
sugar should be removed. and that the
tariff itself has not been an actual
burden upon the people. that he will
listen to reason. and that there is
every hope that his policy will be
changed, and that the entire tariff on
sugar will not De ultimately removed.
Now, If you start in an argument
with Il man by calling him a liar and
a thief and robber, he doesn't usu.
ally ask you to sit down and talk it
over and try to prove that he is not
a liar. He hits out and the strongest
man wins. But II you approach your
adversary like a reasonable man and
tell him that you differ with him and
give him your reasons why, in nine
cases out of ten he will meet you half
way and if your arguments are good
and he is a reasonable man himself.
you have every chance of bringing him
around to your way of thinking. But
you can't ordinarily convince a man
by fighting with him and calling him
names, for it is an old and very true
saying that a man convinced against
his will is of the same opinion still
But let me not be considered as
criticizing adversely those who rep
resented Hawaii in the sugar fight last
year. The fact was that we were all
in a panic--we none of us knew exact
ly what TO do, and If the wrong policy
was adopted, then 1t was adopted in
good faith and there is no ned of say
ing any more about it. But just be-
cause we pursued what / believe to

have been wrong policy year ago,
there is no need OF our continuing it
now, and I sincerely believe that II a
change CT tactics Is followed, We
shall have very greatly better pros
poets of success than by adhering TO
the plan heretofore made use of.
Some of you may say-perhaps a
good many OF you here-"but what is
the use Of coneiliating?" Fight IL
out. for this administration Is only
temporary, anyway" But think you
are wrong in that do not believe
that YOU have gagged accurately the
temper OF the people of the United
States. | fully believe that the pres
ent administration has made good Ia
the minds of the majority of Ameri-
cans. It has not been free from mis-
takes, 1t is true No administration Is
fallible. But the constructive pro-
gram Of legislation which has been
put through since the present admin
istration went into power has pleased
the American people, and | fully be-
lieve that the voters OF the United
States will give the party in power a
term of office far beyond what seems
to be the general impression here In
the Islands.
And so | say, If we hope to keep
any tariff on sugar, It is time to take
account of stock, IL is time to take a
look back at what has been accom-.
plished in the fight against the re.
moyal Of the sugar tariff, and to see

THE WAR AND EDUCATION

American colleges reopening their peaceful
educational season amid the horrors of great
war in Europe, may observe how favorably
their condition compares with that of most of
their fellow institutions across the sea and
profit by it. In Berlin, in Dresden, in Vienna,
in Leipsic, In Paris, in Petrograd, throughout
central Europe generally and to some extent
in the English universities, the machinery of
education has come to complete standstill.
Organized destruction has taken the place of
peaceful progress. Libraries have given place
to arsenals. Scholars and scientists as well as
yoemen and factory hands are fighting for their
several ends and are being slaughtered by the
thousands in the most incredible butc1ery in
history. But, even if militarism had by this
time been followed by national safety and pros
sperity throughout Europe, there would be few
men to teach and few to be taught. Not to
mention the loss in men and the drain on pri-
vate finances, the economic needs of Europe will
for generation to come call upon its young
men for work in rebuilding what has been torn
down Whatever the outcome of the terrific
struggle, the crippling and destruction of each
country's resources will hamper in score of
WAYS the reconstruction of the universities and
DOCK their part IN the OIL tue
It will be a generation before the losses of this
whirlwind will be replaced, if indeed the most
Intangible but greatest loss of all, a cultural
Standard won by half-century's peace, can
even thus be replaced 1t is with such situa-
ton abroad that American higher education
begins another year. Here and there will be
vacancy in the ranks of teacher and student
due directly or indirectly to the war. But, in
the large the colleges will renew their routine
of study and sport and social training as if
nothing were happening. They are fortunate,
as are all branches of activity in America. 1t
may be questioned whether all of us adequately
appreciate it. 1t is an excellent time to meas
IRE such hayward tendencies as may have erept
into our educational life in the light of what
has been lost to Europe, and why it has been
lost 1t is an excellent time to correct such
Tendencies The reason why thoughtful men
and women in this country should study their
fortunate comparison with their contemporary
les across the Atlantic are great and many, and
peculiarly binding at this particular moment.

Beginning tomorrow, there will be marked
change of base in the war situation. A sharp
engagement at Philadelphia will open new
series of conflicts, followed by another hot
battle at Boston. The tide of war will ebb and
flow between these two cities for at least four
days. While the forces will be small, nine men
or so on each side, it is estimated that at each
battle there will be close to 10000 spectators

Japan's quick assurance to Secretary Bryan
that the Nipponese have no permanent designs
on the Caroline island group is another guar.
antee that the Pacific is not to be disturbed by
the Mikado's empire. Neither the United
States nor Great Britain could with serenity
see Japan take the Caroline or Marshall islands
for permanent occupancy. Great Britain would
obiebct on account of their proximity to Aus
tralia. 1t may be taken for granted that before
japan got into this war, she assured Great
Britain satisfactorily that she would not at
tempt territorial expansion at the expense of
German possessions in the Pacific.
