Notes of the School

The girls Of the Domestic Science
class of the Medina village schools
gave a dinner to the school board on
Monday which is said to have been
just about as toothsome as any one
else could have done it. Not only was
the cooking done in a masterful way,
but the service was fully as creditable
and, as an after-dinner cordial, so to
speak, the board was treated to a
small display of figures on the black
board which indicated to cent the
exact cost per plate of the dinner,
which was 28c.
The school board Of York township
is progressing finely. The boys win
be ready to furnish music for the
next Decoration day service. The
members are Marven Myers, Earl
Myers, Louis Bohley, Myron Seeley,
Earl Pierce, Alfred Brinker, and G.
Bart, leader.

THE MAN AND THE STATE.

Schofield Barracks, Oct. II, 1914.
Editor Honolulu Star-BuEIetin.
Sir: There was little quotation
leading your editorial page few days
ago stating that, "Drudgery is as es-
sential TO correct thinking as mind is
to correct work-Mrs Craggfe," and
in your leading editorial of Friday you
state that all Europe is bending every
effort, individual character to the van
ishing point, all as nothing that the
state might live! = Or words to that
effect .... -.s -. -..~
Has it never occurred to Mr.. Editor
that in the very effacement of the in
dividual he is born again? After the
smoke of battle rolls back, yea. liter
ally out of the fire the magician steps
forth on to his prestotigation, the man
of the time and the event. The state
is his condition of existence, an abb
lstraet essential to his well being; he
has attained glory through self>abne-
cation to her cause, yet the state is
nothing without him neither here nor
in Europe. -
There is time in the career of all
of us when our acts are supreme, cor
relative and Immediately with this
juncture of individual character the
duty of the state is likewise impera-
tive in obliterating graft and hedging
off the background

Thank God, that even now as then,
Their honor is their funeral pyrei
Tho worsted in the battles fray
And spoiled of homes and land
By modern Caesars mighty hordes
Still they for right shall stand.
Shall stand for Truth, for Home, for
