GREAT DELUGE
VISITS GARDEN
island towns

AT Lihue on Saturday night. from
Z to 10 o'clock, there was ten inches
OF rain. It was the largest rainfall
on record for the island of Kauai.
And It was the greatest freshet the
island ever experienced Such is
the report brought from the Garden
Island by ]. H. Fiddes Of the B. +.
Dillingham; Company's office. who re-
turned In the w. G. Hall this morning
after q rough passage across the chan.
mel.
"A great deal of damage was done
to the cane" Mr.. Fiddes said. Whole
fields of Lhue plantation were washed
away. The main track of the planta-
ton was moved $50 feet.
AT Anahola both the big and the
small bridge were carried away. The
roads In pieces are blocked with fall
en- trees. II is impossible to get from
Lihue to Hanalei on account OF wash.
outs on the road. There was rain
fall of 24h inches in five days. in.
Guiding 10 inches In 4S hours. The
river at Waimea overlooked its banks,
flooding the town. Hofgaard,s store
floor was under water.
Besides the beautiful county build
ing lately completed at Lihue. there
are many building improvements. The
Kauai Emporium Is finer, In my cpin-
ion, than any store In Honolulu. Ka-
uai not only holds its own for attrac-
tiveness, but also for prosperity and
progress"

ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
WORKING PLANS ARE
OUTLINED AT MEETING

Judge Sanford B. Dole, chairman OF
the legislative committee OF the Asso-
ciated Charities, in a report read at
Joint meeting at 4 o'clock yesterday
of the directors of the charities and
the members Of the Chamber OF Com
merce committee on charities and so
cial welfare, outlined ways and means
whereby steps may be taken to adopt
a more thorough legislative policy
with regard to the carrying out OF
philanthropic and social welfare work
in Honolulu.
One Of the plans outlined in the
report is that conference OF those
social workers interested .in legisla-
ton be held November 2, at which
time there would be a discussion re-
garding Legislation. and the adoption
of some definite plan of action. 1t Is
also the plan to introduce before the
1915 legislature legislative program.
containing several items which will
take the form of administrative meas
ures having the endorsement Of the
governor Judge Dole's report fol-
lows:
"The legislative committee was
formed after Airs F. E. Steere pre-
scented to the executive committee the
need of correlation Of social legisla-
ton and formation Of a definite uni
fed plan of action.
ITO this end the committee sug-
gests that a conference of workers
Interested in 1 legislation be held by
the committee on, say Tuesday, the
II nd
to be announced later in a circular
letter setting forth the objects Of the
conference. This will give Miss Ber-
gen chance out of her wide expert
ence to advise with US and suggest
the best course of action.
"The idea is not to interfere with
legislative plans which an individual
institution may have in mind; but to
meet together so that by a mutual
understanding of each others scheme
we may be better able to aid one an.
other when the time comes. In short.
this will insure the group as unit
backing the efforts of the individual
society.
Governor Pinkham has signified his
willingness to consider a Legislative
program prepared by the social work
ers of Honolulu with reference to TAX
ing from it those propositions which
he would desire to introduce as adj
ministrative measures"
Another report, prepared by the
Chamber of Commerce committee on
charities and social welfare, was read
touching on the plans which that COM
mittee has in mind for endorsing all
organizations in Honolulu which are
engaged In charitable work. Letters
have been sent cut by the COMMITTEES
calling for reports Of the work Of the
various organizations. When these
reports are all in, the committee In
tends to present cards of endorsement
to those societies which It deems wor-
thy societies. Letters to the number
Of 81 already have been sent out, and
thus far but few replies have been
received.
The Kings Daughters were voted
into membership in the Associated
Charities. It was reported by J. r.
Gait that Miss Margaret Bergen. affil-s
lated with the American Association
OF Societies for Organized Charities,
will leave Chicago today for Homo
lulu. Miss Bergen viii take up the
matter of organizing the work of the
Associated Charities.

TN this article ! said that would
explain the difference between
the benefit derived from the BALL
room dance and the more acrobatic
dance Of the stage which can be
practiced at home any time. l my
self am entirely In favor Of the aero
baltic dance, for this reason:
There Is really little or no physical
benefit to be derived from the modern
dance. because there is not enough
bodily exercise.
In the tango, the only muscles ex-
ercised to any extent are those be-
tween the knee and the ankle. The
arm movement Is also slight, and the
bodily movement lies in the bending
back OF the body as illustrated
This movement is used to some ex-
tent in the maxixe, but really not
enough to make any difference in the
slenderness of the waist.
OF course, 1t is better to dance the
modern dances constantly than not to
dance at all, but a combination OF
both would be ideal.
You could use the ascrobatic steps

rr is a very pretty thought, one that
poets like to twitter about, that
Il when Father spends his evenings at

family.
Painters have made their names I'M

with their heads together while read

We like to linger before such scene
and fancy that Mother is sitting near
Father that she can get his attention
by giving him a gentle pat with her
hand. But alas, Dear Reader. after
woman marries a man she doesn't get
his attention with gentle pat Of the
hand: she gets it by digging into his
side with a sharp elbow.
And in this manner Mrs. Lysander
John Appleton, on one Of those ex-
tremely rare occasions when she and
her daughter were at home boarding
their strength for future demands on
it for saving the world, called the at
