The Sd battalion of the I'd Infantry
will finish record practise on Wednes-
day and when the record firing is COM
pleted it is believed record will be
hung up for the rest of the troops
in the department to go after. Com
pany seems to have a large hunch
On the other firers if the slow fire
record at 500 yards can be taken as
any criterion At this range the en-
tire company averaged As per shot,
which means that very few shots went
out of the ring. However, the game
is not finished and Company X, l. or
NJ might hang up the mark on the
rapid fire and walk off with the honor.
1t was rumored that the battalion
was going to ask for a postponement
of payday until the firing was com.
pleted, as a man can't hit thing
when lying on a lot of hot coin, but
advantage was, taken of the splendid
weather Monday and the holiday de
clared off so that the companies
could finish.

PREPARE EXHIBIT FOR
MOTHERS OF TINY TOTS

The members of the Free Kinder,
garten Training School are preparing
an exhibit for mothers and all those
who are interested in the education OF
little children to be held at the Lii
brary of Hawaii from Wednesday to
Saturday, inclusive. Mothers have
often wondered why their children
turned away from the complete en-
pensiVe toys provided for bits of
broken china, a few seeds or stones or
what the mother considers most unin
terestiny and useless things. But the
child knows best what he needs and
if you watch him you will see that
he converts the bit of wood, or tin
or stone into a toy with the aid OF
his Imagination The perfect French
doll does not make demands upon the
Imagination so it is put away in ia
yor of bottle wrapped in a hand
kerchief.
There will be a number of care,
fully planned forms at the exhiP
which holds many suggestions 81 %
how great variety of commo| 4rti
Giles may have educational value.
There will also be suggestions as
to what can be done with blocks,
drawing, free-hand cutting, clay, sto-
ries and nature work.
Every mother should plan to bring
her little children to see this exhibit
