THE MusER OR THE MASTER

Debating is not as fashionable as II
used TO be.
There was time when any sub
ject that came up had TO be debated.
Now, even the new subjects get
little debate and the old subjects even
less.
But occasionally there is a real, old
fashioned debate such as they had,
recently down in one of the eastern
states.
Down there they discussed this
question: who lis the greater detri-
ment TO the community. a miser or a
spendthrift? ?"
The statesman over there decided
that the miser is worse than the vast
err.
While the question may have been
settled for all time to come, can we
not take the time to remark that both
the miser and the waster are foolish
persons. since both OF them punish
themselves in the long run.
The habit OF going TO extremes is
never advisable anyway.
The safest course is the one in the
center, the one leading straight ahead
Much better might the miser or the
spendthrift. i'm his leisure hours. spend
some of his time in buying and read
ing books.
When you stop to think of ii how
many books do you read in a year?
How many books do you suppose
the people of your community read in
a year?
Some of the libraries, where Off
Gals have kept tab on the number of
books used by the average person.
state that only two a year, per patron
Of the library are loaned.
The majority Of people, however,
may not borrow all of their books
from the library
They may buy one now and then or
they may borrow one occasionally
from their friends.
But whether we buy or borrow are
we on the average reading enough
books?
And if we are reading enough books
what kind are they? Are they brain
improvers or time MASTERS?

SARANAC WILL HAVE
BOULEVARD LIGHTS

Saranac will have boulevard lights.
This addition to the town will be made
possible through the support Of the
citizens who gave subscriptions in
conjunction with the amount voted
by the council of the city at a recent
meeting.
The amount raised for placing the
boulevard lights is $3.50 This amount
will be sufficient to install lights on
Saranac's two principal streets.
The move is something unusual for

The Governorship Race
TWENTY SIXTH YEAR

Partly because Of the over-shadow-
ing influence OF the great European
war the average citizen doesn't seem
able to get up much interest i'm the
political situation this fall although
full state and county tickets are to be
elected at the polls in November.
AS far as the governorship race is
concerned this situation is not alarm
ing. Michigan has three splendid
candidates for governor this year and
whoever is elected from this number
is sure TO serve the state well.
Two of the candidates have already
filled the gubernatorial chair and both
have been good governors. Mr. Os-
born is probably one of the most
brilliantly intellectual men in the
political history of the state. He is
also a deep student of men, books
and affairs Primarily he is a re-
markable executive. However he
failed to have his way with the legis-
laturc as successfully as has Gov Fer
ris the most gratifying achievement of
whose official term has been the fact
that he has been able TO work in har-
mony with a republican legislature
and to secure splendid results without
friction.
Governor Ferris may not be so
brilliant as Mr.. Osborn. He may not
be quite the executive but he is a man
of deep understanding. of good
scholarship and a successful business
man. His record speaks for itself and
speaks eloquently.
All over Michigan everyone knows

CONCERNING VACATIONS

DIR. Northrup. OF New York, comes
along to tell us that the vacation is a
heavier drain on health than is plain,
every day hard work; that most of us
need rest after vacation period, and
that few of us know how properly to
conduct ourselves when on the jam
boree we call our vacation" He
says we rush and jam and crowd and
hustle and exert and worry and de-
plete our bank accounts and come
back to the job all petered out. And
he adds that this is not as it should
be-that we ought to go to some quiet
spot, get plenty Of sleep, eat tenn
perately. exert ourselves only mildly,
fret not at all-not even about the
most tremendous events and to in
general observe the rules of sanity and
health.

Kings climb to eminence over mems

Message or wish, maybe;-smooth

Hardly the worst of us here could

Only the tremulous words of child

Look. She is sad to miss morning

Good to Mamma, and sweet. That is

A BROAD VIEW or THE
SITUATION.

Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin:
Sir.-I have learned from several
sources including the Star-Bulletin
that objections have been made to an
article appearing in the August issue
of the Hawaiian Church Chronicle en-
titled, THE War" One gentleman, a
German, who has been sincere
friend of the writer for the past IL
years wrote a letter objecting to its
appearance and spirit.
As this letter lays,on my desk, a
person born in the United States who
had an English father and an Irish
mother came to my office and objected
to the article because 1t was pro-Ger-
man and so 1t ought not to have been
printed in the Chronicle. >s~. ....s
Not long after, man born in
France stated in person that he con-
sidered the article an apology for Ger
many - IL.
This shows that there was some di-
yersity of opinion on the matter in
question Without commenting on
this, however. l would like to state
that however / failed to make it ap-
parent, the intention on my part was
to look at the struggle from all sides
and so to be as fair as possible. II
the article is read carefully it will be
seen that nothing advocated, and if
questions were asked the reader was
Intentionally left to answer the ques-
ton according to his individual belief
and opinion.
Before printing the article it was
submitted to two American-born men
of German parentage with the request
that they point out anything which
might be Irritating. They advised its
publication as a fair review of the sit
uation. ....++ -.
When objection to the article was
read in the Star-Bulletin. an educated
German who has been some IS years

THE SPIRIT OF HAWAI-"

| -. Honolulu, Sept. /, 1914.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin:
| Sir: |; had to break a leg before |
was paid fpr writing The Spirit OF
Hawaii" but | don't intend to break
the other over getting the credit. The
play Will soon be produced at the
Opera House and let us hope it will be
a success. What E. A. Douthitt may
nave done tb il since he accepted my
final manuscript, do not know. The
! Opera House performance will tell.
Last sumner, after finding that was
unab!es to form any original ideas" un-
/ til the proposition was presented to
! me on business basis, Mr.. Douthitt
promised to pay me 800 cash on de-
livery, to start WITH for writing a
Hawaiian sketch based on an old. IA
maliaE plot, selected from the ages by
E. A. Douthitt, d. William Douthitt
and myself. William was to stage the
sketch, Milter was to contribute the
music. Ed lDouthitt was to be the
promoter and producer AS he was
to put up the money to launch the
play, E. A. Douthitts was. of course,
to be the lions share But all con-
my name was to remain as author
Early in January l delivered the fin
ally accepted copy and was paid only
$50, though $500 cash on delivery"
had been promised. | reminded him
of the balance due, by letter, when
was in the hospital with a broken leg,
and in position where | could use it
1.-THE $50 balance, not the broken leg).
He came through" | let all possibili-
ties of royalties slide. The play is his
property, to do with as he likes; but
j wrote 1t. II was not necessary for
him to bring in the hospital scene.
That was theatrical touch 1t would
seem that he wants to pose as philan-
thropic patron of the arts. There was
no philanthropy and no cause for
gratitude. He got the play outright
for a nominal sum and had good cause
to laugh in his sleeve at the bargain.
If it pleases him to claim the author
ship 1t is significant Ito note that he
has started in writing rather late in
life. Changes? The play was changed
many times. 1t is worth several times
500 rewriting the play, as / did five
times, to, conform to the Douthitts
changing ideas of how long it should
last, how many actors there should be,
whether they should sing or talk or
be silent, whether or not an English
butler should drop his HIS, and wheth-
er the hero should speak like tired
business man or a poet. etc.
Mr.. Douthitt admits tie verses are
mine, but says he furnished the senti-
ment If he copyrights the sentiment,
Adam and Eve will. sue him for pla-
giarism His letter Of yesterday was
not prompted by the true spirit of
Hawaii"

he thought OF il as a whole. He a

II would seem to the writer that II

il would be seen TO he kindly in spirit
II il aDDears otherwise the writer re
grets this exceedingly. He here states
positively that he had no intention OF
rejecting upon any nation or policy
or ruler. He has lived among Ger
mans in the United States since he
was IS years of age on intimate terms
and has trusted and near friends
among all peoples. This is the first
time that he has ever oeen thought
to be prejudiced or unfair toward peo
pie of any nationality or race.
The writer would further like to
state in view of remarks which have
been made in this connection that
he is the Bishop Of the American
Episcopal church and that this church
has no more to do with England than
has the Methodist church. or the
churches. As a matter OF fact those
familiar with history are aware that
large number of presidents of the
United States, chief justices of the
United States and members of the
cabinet and officers OF the army and
navy have been members vi the Amer.
lean Episcopal church, as have been
a very large number OF other promi.
nent Americans. All over the main.
land the members OF this church de.
light to call themselves American
churchmen,' and 1t would astonish
them 70 learn that any one imagined
this church English" .<.: /. =
The way in which to read anv ar
tic'e is to take IL as a whole and not
pick out disconnected passage here
and there and we believe that If the
article in question Is read in this man.
ner it VIM be evident that the inten.
ticn of the writer was pacific and
kindly and not argumentatiye or in
favor of any people or ruler.
The ssDirit and intention of the
writer we're for peace and good will
and If the article has been construed
by any one In any other sense. the
writer has the most profound regret
and offers an apology to any one
whose feelings or sentiments he has
unintentionally hurt.
