1t has been said the value Of advertising lies in its power to
convince the public of the advantages to be gained in dealing with
the advertiser. 1t is not the intention Of the management Of the
Delmonico Cafe and Home Bakery to deal at length with customary
advertising phrases that long since should have been cast into the
rag bag of time. We have no desire to advertise in the sense In
which that term is most generally accepted we simply desire to state
a few open facts which your investigation will necessarily verify.

PROSPERITY ON THE WAY IN CANADA

e IA marked change has come over the business
situation in. Canada during the past: week, says
the Montreal Herald Confidence and buoy
ancy are returning. Plans and contracts held
up since before the beginning of the war are
being proceeded with. The outlook for bust
ness is becoming brighter. The stores are
feeling the effects Of q return to normal con-
ditions This is due to the dramatic and I'M
|expectedly sudden change in the fortunes of
war on the French battle-line. And business
men generally are beginning to appreciate
more clearly the proud and enyiable position
which Canada and the British Empire gen
orally will occupy when the war is over.
There can now be no doubt that the imme-
date future will see an immense impetus in
every department of industrial life in Canada.
First and foremost there will come an unprece-
dented demand upon our natural resources
and in particular on our agricultural resources.
The teeming millions Of Europe must be fed,
and next year it viii be largely to this CONT
|nent that they will look for their supplies. A
greater demand and higher prices than have
been known for a generation will prevail next
year for all kinds of cereals. Canada is the
ideal country for growing cereals. We already
produce an enormous crop. But it is as moth
ing to what we could produce. The crops Of
our wheat producing country could easily be
doubled. We have the land and the men.
What is wanted is a scheme of government
help in financing the crop. Agriculture is the
foundation Of all Canada's prosperity. We
ought next year, to have by far the most pros
porous year in all our history. Will the. gov
eminent rise to the occasioni

ANTwERp-A DOOMED CITY.

The relentlessness sof war was never fbetter
exemplifed than in the siege of Antwerp Ger
many has no fundamental quarrel with Bel
GUM but to accomplish her military designs
and save the Teutons from a strategic defeat
BY the Allies, the Kaiser's tremendous guns
must batter down the Antwerp sdefenses and
the Kaiser's soldiers overrun the Antwerp
streets. The city is to be occupied at all costs
to besieger and defender. Germany is tearing
way to the lower North Sea and the Straits
Of Dover and next will attempt to tear way
TO the English channel. Antwerp according
to some observers of the war, is to be used as
base for Zeppelin raid upon Great Britain,
and it may be that the visit of Count Zeppelin
to Wilhelmshaven few DAYS ago was to shift
Zeppelin feet to Antwerp
The fate of Antwerp is presaged by the fate
of Liege,sof Louvain, of Rheims. In this Eu-
ropean war the individual is forgotten except
ms he may contribute some tiny share in the
offense OF defense. The village, the city, the
province, exist only for strategic purpose, or to
provide men or supplies for the war machine
Institutions and constitutions are thrust aside
Nothing remains but the state and its interests

ONE WAY TO INSURE EFFICIENCY.

An editorial survey of the report of the Ha
waii Investigation Commission, which was
made public. yesterday, cannot be condensed
into the space necessary for a one-day sum
mary The Star Bulletin will therefore discuss
various features of this report from time to
lime.
In some respects the most striking single
fact in the entire report is not the recital OF a
sensational graft case, or glazing weakness
in Hawaii county government methods, or the
recommendations for change in those methods
so complete and so drastic it amounts to peace
full revolution. 1t is the fact that the commits
sion, after year IS work, reaches the conclus-
ion that special training for public service in
Hawaii is subject the territorial government
should take up and promote.
4 We desire to repeat part Of what the report
says on this point:
The ezperience Of the County Of Hswaii proves
by unframed persons entirely ignorant Of the details
scope and character of the work entrusted to them
in disorganization Of public business and Is the most
expensive manner conceivable Of conducting this bnsi
q defective n the fact that ii does not at any point
provide special training which would prove Of value
to those who afterwards acquire these positions
Such special training cannot be provided in the cur
rcua Of our public schools and would necessarily be
Of POSTGRADUATE character, but e could be intro
duced and part of institution with the scope
OF the College of Hawaii Such course Of training
should cover constituting the territorial and
local government and prescribing the duties OF of
hcials all phases of territorial and municipal &C
counting including such. details as costkeeping and
7 reportmaking and every other subject that has
special apple alton to their daily work Applicants
for ofnces having certificates of proficiency in these
courses should be given preference in public en-
Payment This training school for public service
should be maintained At the expense of the terri
tory with the direct purpose Of training young men
and women to I'll compsfentiy official positions In
both our territorial and local goyernmehts It should
also provide Instruction BY short courses Of study
for those already employees IA governmental work
and might be expanded to include even the ordinary
citizen who wishes to neEease tis KNOWLEDGE Of the
best methods Of state and civic administration
There is sound practieaIity in this 1t
should be given thorough discussion through
out the territory and if public opinion reaches
the same conclusion, the next Legislature
might we'll take the first steps toward carry
ing the recommendation into effect.

CORNER STONE LAYING PLANNED
Central High Alumni VIII Recon-
mend Proper Inscription.

Plans for the laying Of the corner stone
OF the new Central High School building
were discussed at a recent meeting OF
the executive committee OF the Central
High School Alumni Association. The
alumni association Is to have charge OF
the ceremonies, and much interest has
recently been aroused among the alumni
in Washington in regard to the inscrip-
ton for the stone.
The school now known as the Central
High School traces Its origin to the two
advanced grammar schools, one for girls
and one for boys. started. respectively, in
1876 and in ,1S77. As announced In a recent
issue of the Alumni Record. 1t was dfigi-
nallyI proposed to place the earlier OF
these two dates upon the corner stone as
the date when the school was estab-
lIshed. but the strict accuracy Of such an
inscription has been called into question.
In view OF the reasonable doubt on this
point, the executive committee has agreed
to recommend that the corner stone be
inscribed simply, Central High School
Erected 1914" and that the essential facts
of the schools origin and history be set
forth in an inscription inside the build
ing.
1t Is expected that the laying Of the
stone wiz take place IN the latter part OF
December.
