the contract made with the Standard
Oil company for the development OF
resources in the provinces Of Shensi
and Chi Lii Officials are inclined to
believe that the reported British pro

thought to constitute a graver source
OF danger TO the Standard Oil enter

has not taken advantage of China q
distress and has made a very fair ar

On Monday, March 80, tho Knox
county commissioners expect to adopt
the plans for the new children's home
for this county. Architect Allen of
Columbus will be before the board
on that date and the plans will be
gone over by the board, and after this
conference the advertisement will be
prepared and there now appears to
be no reason why the building should
not be completed sometime next fall.
The commissioners have been held
back in the matter for the reason that
a certain sum in the hands Of the old
board of trustees of the children's
home was not turned over. Last week
by an order of the court the money
was transferred to the county COM
missioners and the old board of trus-
tees dissolved.

Planning For
Big Carnival
Business Men Confident Hawaii Has
Great Opportunity to Gain In
creased Tourist Business
Especial to MAUI NEWS J

Honolulu, August 20.-In a state
ment issued by James d. Dougherty,
director-general OF the Mid-Pacifc
Carnival, the declaration is made
that, under no circumstances, will
the 1915cclebration of Washington $
Birthday be postponed on account
of the present war situation in
Europe.
That the time has come for Ha-,
waii to gain increased prominence
as an all-the-year-round tourist re-
sort, is the opinion of local business
men and commercial organizations.
Thousands OF tourists who will be
unable to go to Europe during the
coming winter and next spring will
seek other lands in which to spend
those months With the Mid-Paci-
fic Carnival as an attraction next
February, it now is believed that
these tourists may be headed toward
Hawaii if the proper promotion
work is accomplished and the
islands advertised to a greater ex-
tent.
The Honolulu Ad Club has com
menced Il campaign to secure more
subscribers to the fund of the Pro-
motion Committee. The Promotion
Committee, in turn, is giving every
possible assistance to the Mid-Paci-
fic Carnival Company, and the car
nival company is sparing no efforts
toward producing in February, 1915,
a carnival which will cover a greater
scope, and which will be more elabo-
rate than any other event of its kind
ever held in the islands.
1t is now an assured fact that
thousands of tourists are going to
visit the islands this winter and
next spring. Hundreds of Austria
lians, en- route to the exposition,
are going to stop over in Hawaii,
take in the carnival and then tom
the islands. As one Honolulu bust
ness man has said:
"Hawaii's golden opportunity is
at hand ard must be grasped. "

Weird and fear-inspiring are the
activities which have been on foot
for the past week, in the Armory
and at other points in and about
Wailuku, in preparation for the
big gathering of the MOBILES OF
the Mystic Shrine. Much queer
paraphernalia has been arriving by
the Inter Island, the uses of which
can only be guessed. 1t is stated
however, that one huge casecontainS
the material for a large balloon
and that a number of the Maui in
itiates into the order will be obliged
to demonstrate their ability as
.aviators, as a part of their test
Most of the ceremonies, of course
by which some twenty candidate:
will become full Shriners, are secret
and will be held in the Armory, bu
the big street parade and the bal
loon ascension, are of course free t
! the public.
