COUSINS SOCIETY
ANNUAL MEETING
TOMORROW Pm.

The annual meeting OF the Hawaii
an Mission Children's Society, better
known as the Cousins Society. will
be held at the Old Mission Home on
King street, Saturday afternoon at 3
p. m.
There will be short annual reports
from the secretary and treasurer Civ
ing an outline of the activities OF the
society for the past year, followed by
the roll-call of the mission families.
The annual rcllcall which was inau-
gurated about three years ago has
proved a most interesting event. The
names of the original missionaries are
read in the order in which they arriV-
ed at the islands beginning with 1920.
After each name is called the living
descendants present are asked to
rise. Last year the Cooke family was
represented by twenty-seVen descend
ants. Among other families which
were we'll represented were the Alex
anders, Judds, Castles, Baldwins,
Thurstons, Gulicks and Emersons.
1t is hoped that there will be large
attendance particularly of the young
er generation at tomorrow's meeting.
The principal matter to be present
ed to the meeting will be the restora-
ton of the old Chamberlain house.
The trustees of the society, Messrs.
c. H. Cooke, Geo. R. Carter and A. B.
Clark have had three sets of plans
drawn to present to the meeting. One
is to restore the old house exactly as
It is, simply making it perfectly safe
and fireproof, in order that it may be
used as a museum and library and
for the purposes of the society. The
second plan contemplates keeping the
exterior of the building exactly as it
is, but remodeling the Interior, divid.
ing the rooms for the best uses Of
the society, for museum and library
and other purposes. The third plan
provides for tearing down the old
house and building entirely new to
provide permanent home for the Or
ganization. Each of the trustees will
present set of plans and state briefly
the reasons why. he thinks the plan
that he presents should be adopted by
the society. The society will then
be asked to vote on which plan shall
be adopted. 1t is hoped that the Off
GERS will be given full authority and
instructions to proceed this coming
year to carry out the plan adopted.
Already one of the mission families
has offered to give five thousand dol
lars toward carrying out one of the
above plans. and II is believed that by
a canvass among the members of the
society the sum needed to carry out
the aplan adopted can be secured dur
ing the year
The election of officers to serve for
the ensuing year will also take place.
1t is hoped that there will be large

THE COST OF FLIES.

/ Flies cost the United States $780,
0g0,0 900 annually. This statement is
made in circular issued by the Com
mittee on Pollution and Sewerage,
Merchants Association of New York.
The committee does not say on
what basis it has made the computa.
ton. Flies undoubtedly cost the
United States a great deal. They are
expensive things to have around the
house. They multiply very rapidly
and in increasing numbers. The evil
they do is multifarious. 1t is a diff
cult matter to reduce it to figures
Possibly one mans guess is as good
as another's in such matters.
There are scientists and scholars
nowadays who can supply figures on
almost every conceivable subject,
from the dimensions of the canals on
the planet Mars to the rate of growth
of an ingrowing toenail Those who
have figured on the fly family assure
US that one fly left to pursue the
even tenor of it's way will leave a few
billions of descendants TO plague man.

Whatever the flies may cost the
country in the damages they inflict,
it is more than a plenty" If there
are flies in the house which have men,

their bodies it will be an act of wis
