AN ADDED PLANK
On Monday the Star Bulletin said editoriallr,


AS a concrete idea for of Hawaii's prospec-
tive Legislators to think and possibly draft
into the soon-to-be-issued platforms, what about
system of rural credits for the farming interests of
the territory?
The subject should receive the attention of the
political parties regardless of the complexion of
their faith. IL is not political issue but in Hawaii
legislation usually follows the laid down in
party platforms and unless some party stands for
this organized aid to homesteaders and other small
farmers the chances of credits bill being
full greatly diminished.
The only territorial platform thus far shaped up
is that of the Progressive party. This platform is
silent such important and timely topics those
of demonstrating and small-farming promotion.
1t is therefore with feeling Of some gratifi
.ation that the Star Bulletin finds in the fina
lraft of the Progressive platform. completed
Wednesday afternoon, the following is an added
plank: E.->.
We believe that the revenue from the lease of
government lands should be used to create special
fund for the purpose of making loans to individual
owners and lessees of agricultural lands.

The children applying for entrance
at the Mckinley high are all from the
grammar grade schools of Honolulu.
If the full number is taken in, the
school will have an attendance of
over 300 pupils, all of which shows
the steady progress which is being
made by the children of the public
schools. There is very marked in
crease in the percentage of pupils
who prove themselves capable of ia
king the high school course.

the climax to growing belief on the part of the

The road drag is the simplest and least expen-
sive contrivance yet devised for maintaining
earth roads, according to the experts in the
q. S. department of agriculture who are cooper
ating with state and county authorities i'm work
for better roads. Properly used, the drag gives
the needed crown to the road, smoothes out ruts
and other irregularities, spreads out puddles of
water, thereby accelerating the drying of the
road and makes the surface more or less imper-
vious to water by smearing over the so-called
pores In the earthly material. The cost of opera
ton depends, of course, upon local conditions
and the thoroughness with which the work is
done. 1t is safe to say, however, that it is less
expensive than any other efficient system of up
keep.

Darwin s theory OF hfe-the theory which, IN our
grandfather's day, swept many old notions into
the corner-was, you remember, that everything
evolved from simple beginning; that life has been a
forward struggle from the jellyfish up to the God
like being,
Starting with something or other (call it proto-
plasm, for you must have a starting point), Darwin
very poor and lowly but that somehow, as the ages
passed, it became more complex, slowly changing to
fit new conditions.
Darwin, you see wasn't standpatter
Though Darwin's theory is about as clear as mud,
yet it made great hit because it different and
because it shocked many closed minds into opening
for thinking
Now comes another scientist with another theory,
which also is creating a stir.
William Bateson, president of the British Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Science turns Darwins
theory around. The protoplasm he argues, wasn't
simple poor or lowly at all. 1t had in it all the
forces, all the power, that we today.
Shakespeare he reminds us, "once existed
speck OF protoplasm not so big as small pins head
To this nothing added that would not equally
well have served to build up baboon a rat"
What happened, according to Bateson that
originally many of the powers latent in this primer

chance IN the slow course of the aeons which fol

THE EXPRESS AWAKENING.

Instead of being driven out of bust
ness by the parcel post, as some pre-
dicted, or being ruined by the inter-
state commerce commissions lower
ing of rates, the express companies
seem determined to give the govern
ment some real competition and are
using the new rates to attract new
business. So the parcel post, as the
New York Press points out, brings
good things to the public from the
express companies" while at the same
time successful express competition is
bound to put the post office depart
ment on it's best behavior The COM
