We have received but one complaint

satisfaction with these courses A

asking for criticisms and suggestions

The College of Hawaii desires to
serve the people Of Hawaii in every
feasible way. 1t is now carrying on a
large number Of extension enterprises
designed particularly for those per-
sons who can not attend the regular
sessions Of the college. Most of this
extension work is done upon the slen.
derest financial basis. as the federal
funds are net expendable for this
work. The material equipment Of the
college and the services of its teach
ing staff are made available, Just so
far as is practicable, to any person In
the territory, and always without
charge.

While some of the questions suggested for
discussion are of national Significance, the chief
value of the work of the university lies in the
way it focuses attention upon real problems of
Immediate local concern. For example. it is

SHERWOOD NJ. LOWREY: The
reason the Carnival stock certificates
have net been delivered is that the
committee, after it had made them
out, did not know whether it would
have to call an extra assessment, and
the committee did not want to de-
liver the certificates and then go
ahead and collect an assessment.
They now will be turned over to the
new board Of directors to decide
whether it is advisable at this time
to collect a small assessment when
the delivery is made in order that a
fund may be on hand for next years

Identification card "a novel and good idea
of hiss is the question asked. This little
metal bound card requests that in case of
trouble or accident notify William J. Rafter,
319 Bowery. The priest cares for thousands
of men alive, and buries those who die.
Only Catholics can be buried in consecrated
ground. Hence he must know their religion.
Beyond that, the Holy Name Mission does
not question or proselyte.
A study of the mission records for the last
two years, dealing with over two thousand
men of all kinds and conditions, shows that
more than seventy-fve per cent. of them
drifted to the Bowery through poverty oc-
casioned by lack OF work. Of the remaining
twenty-five per cent. drink was almost en-,
tirely the cause. In dealing with the latter
element Father Rafter's method seems to be
considerably more efficient than any other.
He has clubroom fitted up on the third
floor of the mission, where card tables, a
pool and billiard table, games, books, and
magazines are at the disposal of all who come
to him for work or assistance, if he believes
them to be worthy. On the top floor is a
quaint, pretty little chapel, where services
are held for the Catholic men of the Bowery,
men whose poverty and pride keep them
from attending a regular institution.

THE EQUATION OF EQUINOX


RY Jim! l don't know how it happened,
- but that blow-up jes' the right minute
saved the rev'noo! Are you hurted much,
you kids?"
Flotsam and Jetsam, stunned under water
by the eruption, found themselves in Ships
Bottoms boat, with toil-hardened but ten
der hands feeling them over. At first the
boys themselves did not know what had
happened; but slowly their senses came
back to them. The Onondaga's bows tow
cred over them, still dripping from the erup-
ton of the ocean, while the hydroplane
splashed on the sea alongside, her planes
twisted by the shock.
"Fust we thought the hull Atlantic went
up" Captain Casco said, his grave face
bending over them as they babbled ques-
tons. "'Twas that Whitehead torpedo.
The rev moo was a most on her when she let
go like waterspout. She kited that new
patent flying machine most mile. Lucky
you kids wasn't killed, with your shenani-
gans. How'd it happen? Come now!'
"She-she must a rammed the boat" the
lads quavered. Heartsick, thev wanted no
credit for themselves. "Pore Gums gomez"
Captain Casco waved a large and impress
sive hand, and the life crew snickered. Il

lett! oplne gum amt much loss. Ye
needn't take on, Boys. 1t was the voice of
him nearly coaxed the old 'Dago to destruc-
ton. But he ain even voice now: on y fog!'
But whatever GUMS faults or follies, he
had atoned with his life. Flotsam and Jet
sam knew the truth, and told it in choked
voices. They had dared greatly; but Quin,
and Quin alone, had saved the Onondaga,

money until they could pay their own way

dignantly denies that his men are objects OF
charity in the accepted sense.
Il help men to help themselves. | lend
them what they need, and they pay me back
when they can. That's all there is to it"
Out of random one hundred and seven
men selected from those he has aided during
the last year, ninety-eight have returned
and paid their Indebtedness in full. Three
of the others have up to date had only a few
days work. The remaining six will prob
ably have to go on the wrong side of the
ledger. At that, it's marvellous showing
on the Bowery or Fifth-ave.

IetSam dare ann1hllatlOn lace to lace. But
the "Guardian Angel of the Coast" was the
idol of every Barnegat boys heart. Be-
sides, without a word being said, save by
ouin, they blamed themselves, with the logic
of boys, for toling in the big revenue cut
ter; for in that smother the sailors might
well mistake the burros deep-toned bray
for the voice of the Gridiron's wrecked fog
horn, giving them bearings. Since they had
shanghaied Quin, it was for them to make
reparation, and save the ship.
Already Flotsam and Jetsam had noosed
the end of Gums frayed rope over the tor
pedo's brazen nose when Jetsam's despair
ing cry rang out over the siren roar, signal
ing the vanished hydroplane.
"She's right OIL as, Sam! Amt more'n
two ship lengths off! l can mos see her
people, mort"
aGrab the umbrel! We can tow her to
Yell, Sam, for-Heaven' sake! Gums gone
luny!'
| CRAZED by the excitement, or homesick
for the lost sea burro, or maddened by
the proximity of his enemy, the iron shark,
Equinox had launched himself on the war
path, body, soul, and heels All his life he
had been misused and misunderstood by the
creature man, big and little, and now, as
last straw, his own particular friends had
brought him out in the binding fog, prob
ably to be devoured, like that other burro
of the mournful voice, by the monstrous
thing that nosed the catamaran, its baleful,
brazen eye blinking right on him.
The burros brave heart rebelled. Blar-
ing at the top of his lungs, he backed on
F1otsam, who wrigglcd from under his heels,
and lashed out at the torpedo, which lunged
closer and closer.
In the awful din the revenue cutters bows
drew closer, looming up in a shadowy wedge,
till in the deceptive fog she seemed to tower
right over them. From her high up deck
came the yelling of many voices, and final
ear splitting shrek of the siren. Then, head
on for the ship, the hydroplane swooped, re-
turning to the cutter. She struck the water
with her long, lean pontoons, and rose to
swoop again, slithering over the sea. At the
same moment the brass plunger reared in
striking range, and the Onondaga saw her
doom.
"What in the name Of Hard a star
right under u.s."
"Duck!" said Flotsam. "Dive deep" Jet
sam said, and the boys flashed from oppo-
site bows.
Equinox saw them go, and heard the cry
of the great ghost ship that loomed above
him, filed with yelling devils. He was in the
midst of enemies, deserted. But at least
against that wallowing monster lurching up
against the raft hewould strike one final blow.
A gathering of heels on metal came, and
Gums defiant bray And the night closed
in-with rending roar.
The air was sweet on sunlit plains of the
pampas, the tender grass, and the ripening
berries sweet. All his troubles gone, little
Equinox, a colt again, cooked his ears to the
tinkle of the bell mare of the herd, and over
all the snowy peaks looked down where
peace was and happiuess-aud silence

MARKET FOR MODERATE
PRICED CARS GROWING
It Must, Says WHY'S, as That
Class Of Buyers Becomes
More Numerous.
~ JOHN n. wIlLYs.

Not long ago I expressed my belief
that the end of the present period Of
readjustment would mark 'the survival
OF the Rttest." And by tho survival of
the fittest' do not mean just the sur
yiyal of the strongest manufacturers. !
mean the survival of those makers whose
cars are nttest to answer the demand OF
the great masses Of possible buyers and
of the dealers who stick tight to those
makers and their product.
The time is long past when the motor
car Ii considered mere luxury. to be
enjoyed by the few and only possible
to the few. To-day 1t In counted q
necessity or convenience as we'll as q
means of recreation by the many for
whom the word automobile formerly
merely excited q not TO be gratihed desire.
In other words, the day Ia gone when
only the rich can motor. The man Of
moderate means is now just as certain
n buyer. and II is 10 him and his class
that we may look for the largest expan-
sion in the automobile business.
True. the sale of high priced cars
will go on. but II will not increase In
volume. Our very wealthy class In a
limited class. and will buy In about the
same quantity a few years hence
as now. but the we'll to do class Is con-
stantly increasing. Each year sees more
and more people who are able and anxious
to buy the best OF the low priced
cars The makers OF automobiles who
give the most car value at a small cost
need fear nothing. The manufacturers of
high priced cars must either decrease In
number or else each curtail his output
