rant that stringent methods have be,
come necessary to compel Japanese pa
rents to send their children to institu,
tons of learning. On one occasion scv,
EN- JapEnese defenlaEIs were in court,
all charged with violating the compuI-
sorry education law. "
II seems that most of these parents
took their children out of the Wailuku
public schools on the pretense that they
wanted them to attend the Catholic
Mission school. The children were sent
to the latter school for u few days and
then kept at home and there is no
means of detecting the fraud unless the
teachers keep in touch with each other.
Recently Police Officer Sylvia found
five children in one house all Of school
age and all of whom admitted they did
not attend any institution. He sseut
them to Waikiki school but in few
lays the father came and demanded his
'hldren with the declaration that he
intended sending them to the Catholic
school, They attended this institution
shrse days and then remained at home
and took lessons in dancing.
When brought into court, the parents
admitted the charge and, with two
other Japanese who also admitted their
children were taking dancing lessons
and being kept from school, We're fined
five dollars each. The dancing mas
ters were fined twenty dollars.
The court instructed all teachers TO
demand Of every pupil applying at a
school to produce release from the
school they had left and If such n
release could not be Produced to cause
the arrest of the parents. ....

TAMPA, Fla. Feb. l2.-SOcial cir cles were stirred to their depth today b. the Kidnapping of little Catherine Metallic from the home of her aunt with whom she has lived since the Me Callies were divorced a year ago.
 Metallic sued his wife for divorce on statutory grounds and named New ten C. Fasett of Spokane, as son of J Sloat Fassett, as CO., respondent. The husband was granted divorce and the custody of the little daughter of the pair
 After her divorce Mrs Metallic mar r'ed Fassett and the two have spent considerable time in travel.
 The climate of the northwest in win ter not being considered Fcalthful for his little daughter Metallic arranged for her to spend the winter at the hcme of his sister here and the child has been living with her aunt for sev eral months
 Catherine was seldom allowed out oi the house without a nursemaid all though this was not from any far of abduction as it was not believed that the mother cared enough for her daughter to want to be burdened with the child in her new happiness. There was a special maid in charge of the little girl. however, and on her daily walks along the beach this maid was always with her.
 The maid reports that several times when she and the little girl were or the beach she has noticed a strange wcman looking fiXedly at the child. Sometimes this woman was alone and sometimes she was accompanied by a man and they were both usually dress eJ in yachting costume. Once or twice the strange woman had spoken to the

Rcso- utions were passed demanding that the ministry resign and also that the government make some arrangement with Mexico whereby the Japanese may acquire the entire fishing right of Magdalena bay.
 The resolutions state tEat the Jap anese of the Hawaiian islands have been sending ten per cent of all of their earnings home to the government for military purposes and that it is the desire of the contributors that this money be spent for military purposes as was promised when the order for the contribution was issued

 This morning while the Metallic child and her nurse were on the sands the strange woman again came up to them and while playing with the lit- tie girl she asked the maid if she would step down the beach about twenty yards to where an old man was selling toy bolloons and purchase one for Catherine. She gave the maid five dollars and the size of the bill caused scme delay in making change. When the nurse returned to the spot where she had left the woman and the little girl they were no where in sight. An Nious inquiry illicited the information from those around the spot that the lady and the child had gone out on tho pier and entered a launch from one of the yachts at anchor in the harbor
 In alarm the nurse girl ran to the waters edge and from there she could just make out the white hat and blue ribbons on the babys dress as the little gasoline launch danced away over the waves.
 The frightened girl hurried home and informed her mistress of what had happened and from the description she gave there is no doubt that the wo- man who took the child away was it's mother the present Mrs. Fassett. By the time the alarm had been given all that could be seen of the yacht was dimn smoke trail on the horizon.
