the greatest city OF ancient
times. the city so magnifi-

were compared with imperial
Rome.
And Rome was not built In
a day. She was not built in
a year nor IN a decade. Cen
turtles were required to make
the city what she was. TO
give her the deserved reputa-
ton for wealth and beauty.
So regulations and business
institutions are not built In a
a day. One advertisement.

A very urgent call is made by

towns of the island wishing to at

out that unless something in this
way is done the privileges of the
school will he lost to many child
rem living outside of Lihue, and
its mission as an institution for
the benefit of the whole -island
cannot be accomplished. Those
Immediately concerned are hope
full that some move may be made
in the next week or two to provide
accommodations for children Of
the other districts.

QUIET CHRISTMAS
ALL OVER kauai

Christmas passed off quietly all
Ner Kauai. There were no very
Tl events, but there were whole
lot of little ones everywhere. In
all of the towns there were Christ
mas dinners, while Christmas trees
the evening before were much i'll
evidence. In many places, picture
programs attracted crowds Christ
mas eve, and in the later hours
bands of musicians were around
serenading.
Christmas day all over the island
was much like a Sunday, people,
for the. most part, either staying
home +. quietly visiting neigh
bors. Special services were held
in the Lihue German church, but
in other churches there was nothing
out of the ordinary. All business
was suspended.
There was a notable absence of
drinking on Christmas day. In
Waimea the sailors of the Kinau
(who had missed their Christmas
in HonOlulu) had jolly, but very
orderly, time The police had
very little to do anywhere.

FIRST REPORT Of
PICTURE CENSORS

A short time ago, acting upon a
new section in the bylaws, Dr..
Putnam, president of the Chamber
of Commerce, appointed a COM
mittee of advisory motion pict"re
censors, consisting of one member
each at Kapaa, Lihue, Koloa, Ele-
ele and Waimea, where the prin-
cipal motion picture theaters are
located. The first result of this
committees work was a report, at
the recent meeting of the Chamber,
from c. B. Morse, the member for
Eleele. Mr.. Morse is principal of
the large school there. On account
of the fact that his report drives
squarely at the points intended for
his committee, it is herewith pre-
sentcd in full:
Since being informed that l was
appointed to report upon the nature
of the moving pictures in our local

in regard to the subject although

l have seen differ very much from
the ones you all have seen from
time to time.
The comedy, tragedy, and his
torical play, might be names we
could give to the portrayals which
we witness at nearly every show.
AS to the comic picture, most Of
us adults fail to see anything very
funny or interesting and we doubt
if much, or any benefit can come
to anyone from this class of pic
lures.
The tragic play, while Otter
holding The intense interest Of both
young and old, contains much tha,

of the spectators. For instance, il

he is cutting the throat of his rival
