ASAHI EDITOR
GOING TO VIEW
BATTLE FIELDS

War correspondents flock from all
countries to the theater of the great
war in Europe, but Japan instead of
sending ordinary reporters to the
scenes of the conuict details the edi-
tors of her big dailies. The last cor.
respondent bound for the front to pass
Honolulu was M. Mazda, editor in
chief of the Toxic Asahi, leading or.
gan of the Orient.
Mazda is a passenger on the Tenyo
Maru, which called at Honolulu Mon
day. He was compelled to remain in
Toxic until the return of his first as
sistant, K. Sugimura, who passed
through Honolulu about a month ago
after a stay of five months in war
ridden Europe. Sugimura had the
honor to present King Albert of Bel
GUM with a jewelled sword, symbol
izing the profound admiration of the
Japanese people.

NORRIS CHAPEL DISPLAY
Best Exhibit CT the Kind Witnessed
this Year. Girls Bake Bread

The exhibit giyeu by the club girls
and boys, on Friday. the 10th at Nor
ris Chapel, was the best Of its kind
We have yet seen.
Each pupil had his exhibit artistical-
Iy set and waited nearby TO give any
information concerning it, desired.
The Better Bread Girls had such an
array Of tooth-some yiands placed be-
fore them for sale that it was diff
cult to get the hungry audience TO
wait till high noon before selling the
tempting lunches.
The canned fruits and vegetables
showed as much skill in the culinary
art as their rivals.
Miss Gertrude Payne won the prize
given for the best exhibit in both can
ming and Better Bread.
Miss Mabel Cline won first prize in
canning.
Miss Inez Pruitt won first prize in
cooking
As the diminutiye cooks of tender
years, keenly alert, gathered IN the
small coins in return for their delicious
lunches handed out, We could not re-
sist the prophecy that they would one
day excel as business managers as
they now do in the science and art Of
cookery. It is to be hoped that their
genius may be directed into the man
agement of magnificent homes, the
greatest business any woman can pos
sess.
The deep interest manifested by the
teachers, Misses Olive Cline and Cal
ly Thomason, in the success of their
school exhibit was reflected by the
students themselves in the excellent
showing made Miss Thomson became
big Sister" to the clubs last winter
and has been most faithful in her
watchful care over the club life of her
boys and girls during the trying dis
asters of the spring and summer work.
Would that all the teachers of the
county were as much enlisted in the
well.being of their pupils as Misses
Cline and Thomason.
