NO CERTIFICATES
HAWAIIAN BIRTH

A notice in regard to certificates
of Hawaiian birth appears in this
issue, and. respecting it Territorial
Secretary Thayer says,
I have decided to issue no more
Hawaiian birth certificates until
such time as l am able to make
arrangements with the immigra-
ton officials whereby greater in
Auence may be given to the certifi-
Gates issued by this office.
Information has come to me
that unscrupulous persons in the
different islands have been going
about the country making the
statement that they were authoriz-
ed by this Office to secure petitions
for birth certificates, and that the
certificates, when issued, would
give the holders a right to enter
the United States at any time with
out opposition l wish this i'm
preston dispelled in the minds o
all people.

THE Oh CLUB HAS
BOWLING PARTY

The Gu Club had one jolly, good
time at the bowling alley Friday
evening, all of the officers and
most of the members being present.
Or course the big feature of the
evening was bowling, at which
some of the young ladies proved
quite expert. No records were
broken, but once or twice few
of them seemed in much danger of
being Jared.
Refreshments in abundance were
on hand and were served through
out the evening-capped off by a
luncheon shortly after 10 o'clock.
About 9 O'Clock Rev. J. NJ. and
Mrs. Lydgate, Chas. and Mrs.
Rice, Miss Mumford and others
arrived from the meeting of the
Historical Society, filling the bowl
ing alley to almost capacity.
The Gu Club is in a very pros
porous and promising condition,
and other interesting functions are
promised by it for the future.

HIGH SCHOOL IDEA
WITHIN THE LAW

1t will be remembered that at the
special meeting at the Fairview
Hotel on the High School matter
Superintendent Kinney read an
opinion by former Attorney Gener-
al Alex. Lindsay, in which it was
stated in general that the plan of a
select school attachment to h e
high school, with a tuition fee for
extra expenses, was within the
law. Writing under date of MAY
20, Superintendent Kinney says
further of this matter:
The Attorney-General's opin-
ion, from Mr.. Alex. Lindsay, TO
which l referred at the meeting, l
have submittedto Attorney-Gener-
al Stainback, who Informed me
that he believes it to'be quite cor
rect, but will give me an official
opinion within a few days. Under
the circumstances l can, person
ally, see no reason why we should
not be able to carry out the plans
suggested, and l hope that the
commissioners will share this
view

LEAVE FOR
A JAP MERCHANT

A Japanese merchant named To-
rigoe, doing business across the
road from the cannery in Laval,
has disappeared, leaving, it is said.
a long list of mourning creditors
behind him.
1t is known that he left for Ho-
nolulu on May II, and the suppo-
sition is that he has moved on from
there to parts unknown.
The store of Torigoe, at Laval,
is a small one, there being little of
value in it. So far as now known,
none of the amounts owed by the
man are. large, but there are os
many of them that the aggregate
will be considerable,
One suit against the ex store
keeper was filed yesterday, but has
not been served on account of his
absence.

COMMISSIONERS OF
SCHOOLS At WORK

The Commissioners of EduCa-
ton, in session at Honolulu, did
not reach the business of appoint
ing teachers yesterday, but had
the schedule slated to be taken up
this morning, beginning with the
island of Hawaii and probably con-
cluding with Kauai. 1t was plan
ned to rush the appointments and
changes through in time for the
commissioners to leave for home
this afternoon, and that was pro-
badly done.
The most important thing OF
local interest at latest accounts was
the appointment of H. H. Brodie
70 slirceed himself as supervising
principal on this island.
c. w. Ashford appeared before
the commissioners and strenuously
objected to the re appointment OF
Edgar Wood as principal of the
normal school. He made sensation
al charges of incompetency and
boorishness. 7 h C commissioners
took the matter under advisement
Mr.. Brandt, of Kauai, was mo-
present at Saturdays session, but
took his seat Monday morning,

we'll to, DR.. Carl Keller, who has
been acting physician at that place
for the past ten months i'll place of
DR.. West. A fine spread and all the
features that go to make up
pleasant evening for mere man
were fully in evidence.
Among those present at the affair
were: DR.. Keller, Manager B. D.

VIM. Schultze, Franz Bayer, Guy.

temporarily, at least. While on
Kauai he made many friends, by
virtue of his amiable disposition
and sterling qualities; and his de-
parture is generally regretted.

JAPANESE HONOR
EMPRESS MEMORY

Last Sunday being the day for
intering the remains of the late
Empress Dowagef, in Tokyo, SER
vices were held in all the Japanese
churches and schools of the island
in memory of the beloved mother
of the country"
The Lihue Plantation japanese
Sunday school, japanese Christian
church and the Japanese Buddhist
mission, at Kapaia, were the cen.
ters of big gatherings; but the at
tendance at the latter was much
the largest, the school grounds be-
ing a surging mass of men, women
and children +Thev came from every
quarter of the neighboring planta-
tions, and more than 600 crowded
into the school house adjoining
the mission
At the front of the interior of
the school building was a large
framed picture of the late Empress
Dowager, beautifully d ecorate
with Hawaiian leis. Palms on either
side of the platform added much to
the beauty of the scene,
The ceremony began with a
mournful chorus sung by school
girls, and proceeded with an air of
great solemnity. Rev. Miyasaki
read the paper of the day, and was
followed by Mr.. Tsunoda, of the
Y. NJ. B. A, who made a highly
interesting and appropriate address
that emphasized the three cardinal
virtues of female character-filial
piety, constancy and loving kind
ness-as exempted in the life of
the late Empress Dowager.

Last Sundays baseball games
were at Makaweli and Kilauea,
and both were dreadfully one sided
as to results, but there was good
playing by all teams, giving as
surance that there will be some
warm ball ere the season IS tar un-
derwav. The game at Makaweli
was between the team OF that town
and the uniformed McBl'yde's,
and resulted in a score of IL to 2
in favor of the visitors. The XII
lauea game was between the Kllau-
cas- and the Kawaihaus, the latter
winning, 6 to nothing. The Ma
kawelis and Kilaueas made their
first appearances, respectively, this
season in these games; and that,
to some extent, may account tor
the loose -jointed playing which
was more or less in evidence.
MAKAWELIVS. M'BRYDE
The Makaweli- -McBryde game
was the big" one of the day-or,
at any rate, it drew by far the lar
gest crowd. Practically the whole
west end of the island was there

force and there were people pre-
sent from as ar as Hanalel
Autos were parked as far as they
could conveniently halt off the

was full of machines. The lines

Cecil Brown Pau?

It is stated that Cecil Brown,
who was in Lihue last week, will
not stand again for the Senate this
year, and, in fact, will retire from
active participation in campaign
politics. 1t S understood that
Clarence H. Cooke will likely ap-
pear in the field for the seat of
Senator Brown. Mr.. Cooke is now
a member of the lower house, be-
ing one of the two (out OF tWclve)
Republicans elected to the House

THE HISTORICAL
SOCIETY MEETS

i he second meetlng OF the hau-
al Historical Society was held in
the Lihue Library Friday evening,
the attendance being quite large
and enthusiasm much in evidence.
No set program had been planned,
it being understood that the meet
ing was for the purpose of perfect
ing organization. AS a matter of
fact, however, several interesting
features developed extemporanc-
ously.
President w. H. Rice ST., was
in the chair and Miss Wilcox Off
ciated as secretary, Quite few
signed the roll new, charter
members, paying, at h e same
time, the annual fee Of 81.
At the last meeting it had been
voted that the character roll be
kept open only until May %. 1t
developed, however, that quite
number who had signified their
intention of joining had not yet
signed the roll and we re unavoid-
ably detained from the meeting.
On that account Mr.. Chas. A. Rice
moved that the charter roll be
held open until July /, motion
which carried by unanimous vote,
Rev. ]. M. Lydgate, for the pro-
gram committee, reported a long
list of subjects which the committee
recommended for the consideration
of the societv. There were enough
A;ubiects in the lot, perhaps, to
supply programs for a year. The
committee recommended that the
society take up first the subject OF
the wreck of the Saginaw, OFT Ha-
nalei. many years ago.
Attention was called to the fact
that several members of the soci-
ETY. remembered the wreck OF the
Saginaw, and Mr.. S. w. Wilcox,
who was present, gave short ac'
count of certain features OF the
wreck. He also described the ole
Russian fort at Waimea, which he
knew quite we'll when boy, after
the Russians had abandoned 1t
leaving many of their strange, ole
weapons and uniforms behind.
Mrs. w. H. Rice, ST., also offer
ed, as matter of general interest
a letter written by a missionary II
the South Seas in 1928 to a frienc
here, which was read by Miss MI
Intyre and passed around for ex
animation.
Mr.. Lydgate read a letter from
George R. Carter in reference t
allowing the Kauai Historical So
ciety access to the material OF tn
Hawaiian Historical Society,
ouoHlulu. on Kauai subjects, stat
ing that a request to that ettec
} would be referred to the governing
board. ,
1t was decided that the original
of all papers presented before tn
society be preserved, and that, TO
convenience sake, copies of ther
be transcribed in a permanent rec
ord book.
The matter of more frequer
meetings came up (the constitu
ton provides for quarterly meet
ings), and several expressed tn
view that. at first at any rate
meetings should be held monthly
The matter was finally referred
the directors, with instructions
make such arrangements as the
might deem best.

Although no direct information
to that effect has been received, il
is the belief around the Circuit
Court that Judge Dickey will re-
turn to Lihue on June S, and that
he will not 90 back again to Homo
lulu, he having declined to serve
any longer over there.

than has been obtained heretofore.
The usual procedure has been for the
state fire wardens or federal forest
officers to send TO the postmasters
lists of local wardens and patrolmen
~ith their addresses and telephone
numbers. These lists are given to the
carriers with instructions to report
forest fires to men whose names ap-
pear thereon. or to other responsible
persons. This year a special effort
will be made TO follow up the sending
out of the lists by having the patrol
men and wardens meet the carriers
personally and to take the initiative
in arranging such meetings, and also
to map out a plan of action to be fol-
lowed.
Cooperation between the rural car
riers and the federal forest officers
will be effective in the 20 states in
which national forests exist and with
state forest officers in the 30 states
which have established their own fire
protective systems. II is expected that
the services of the carriers will be par
ticularly valuable in helping 10 pro-
tect the new national forest areas in
the southern Appalachians.
