ENLARGEMENT Of
THE L|HUE SCHOOL

One of the items likely to go in
the appropriation bill at the com.
ing session of the Legislature will
call for an appropriation tor a new
public school building for Lihue,
to be erected on the present school
premises near Lihue mill. r he
style of building TO be put up and
the cost Of same are matters vet to
be determined.
1t NAV not be pl enature to say
that the Lihue public school prem
ises may be considerably large
in the near future than they are at
present. Two deals to this end are
pending, and will likely be brought
to a satisfactory consummation
The first is a proposal to take over
the premises now occupied by the
Japanese mission, the mission be-
ing given piece of land in ex-
change by Mr.. George Wilcox,
who, in turn, is to transfer the lot
to the school.
The second part of the proposal
comes from the Lihue Plantation
COMPANY, ard is to give to the
school the land nearer the mill
now occupied BY Mr.. Grote.
This would increase the area Of
the school premises about three
times over, and give it practically
all of the plateau along the road
upon which it is loca;ed. Ample
room would be afforded thereon
for Fairgrounds, etc, which are
so much needed,
Then would come the new, large
building in place of the old struc-
ture now being used for school
purposes. 7 hes Sc improvements.
taken together. would place the
school in very excellent shape.

SIGN ALL LETTERS
To THE GOVERNOR

The anonymous letter writer is
again abroad on Kauai, and more
unsigned missives are reaching the
Governor. The last time, a mild
sensation was caused by an anony-
nous letter to the Governor in re-
gard to dentists,
Now, someone else has began
writing letters. III regard to the
matter, Governor P:nkham, under
date of February 13, writes to the
editor of TIE GARDEN ISLAND as
follows:
Dear Sir:
Will YOU kindly state in your
paper that while the Governor Is
interested in the welfare of each
and every dweller OH Kauai, he
cannot consider anonymous COM
munications, hence the only way
to secure his attention is by plain
signatures to letters.
Very respectfully,
L. f. PINKHAM
Governor of Hawaii, 4"
