AN ADU.TE7 7ATFO BRAND IF HUMOR

Some peoples sense of humor is of such a quality that no one but themselves can appreciate it, spec ial reference being had by the fore g .lng remark to some Smart Alec at the Nugget movies las: night who scattered on the floor in one oL the aisles a lot of ground cayenne pepper, greatly to the annoyance and discomfort of those who were in the vicinity of where it had beer thrown.
 The perpetrator of such an ex- crutiatingly funny" stunt, if he is ever caught in the at, should be given a jail sentence of sufficient length to cause him henceforth to have more consideration for people who go to such places for their own enjoyment and not to furnish amusement for the village wit.

rightly argued that where the school
causes the bringing together of a

duty of safeguarding health in every
way possible.
But, at this time, l wished to par
ticularly point out the need of
school gymnasium. The schools of
the country are very rapidly arrang-

some of the European countries have
done so successfully. Among the
many high schools which have been
built in this state during the past few
years, good gymnasiums can be found
in practically all of them. This work
is carried on in conformance with
the thought that the school must ac-
cept larger responsibilities than ever
before, as already discussed in one
of the preceding topics.
In addition, the gymnasium can
very properly be used for commun-
ity purposes. A business mems or
ganization. a Y. M. G. A. or Y. w.

find such a gymnasium yer desir-

PLEASING THE PUBLIC.

The day Of the "public be damned" corpora
ton is fast passing in any and every American
community.
The public utility companies which go OF
the other principIe-the "public- e-pIeased'
principle-are finding not only that it pays
better than antagonizing their patrons, but
that it actually lends to efficiency in the oper-
ating system.
"A few days ago the Mutual Telephone Com
pany of this city took advertising space in the
newspapers to tell of its achievement during
the year 1914. It, was a real achievement,
something worth telling about, and the tele-
phone company quite properly is proud of it.
In 1914, according to this story of business
corporation, fifteen million calls were handled
in this city. In one day alone-the day before
Christmas Day, when holiday greetings flew by
wire all day long necessarily in addition to a
heavy general demand 50,600 calls were hand
led. The automatic system carried the burden
smoothly, without friction, speedily. i,
That is an efficiency achievement, made pos
sible by brains and organization. And the
spirit of 1.-THE public be pleased" was shown
In the frank statement to the public made by
the company at the beginning of a new year.
The Hawaiian Electric Company recently re-
duced rates 20 per cent-a voluntary cut, made
possible because the company had had good
year and was willing to share prosperity with
its patrons.
Another illustration of efficiency and the
''public be pleased' policy working to the di-
rect benefit of the public.
This policy is the strongest sort of argument
against municipal ownership, against ruinous
competition between rival public utility COM
panies fighting for city streets and for public
business to the detriment of real public inter
ests. The company that plays fair with the
public need have no fear of hostile legislation

LETTERS
THE ENLISTED MAN AND.THE
CHURCH.

January 8, 1915.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir:-Why is it, try as one does to
interest the enlisted men to attend
divine worship in our local churches,
it seems almost a hopeless task
These men who are our guardians in
time Of peace as, we'll as in time of
war, feel quite keenly the lack of
brotherliness and true Christian spirit
shown them amongst the congrega-
lions of Honolulu.
There are quite a number of mel,
at the various posts, understand,
who are communicates of the Ameri-
can Episcopal church. Some have ex-
pressed themselves as being only too
glad to receive the blessed sacrament
In parish church, but there seems to
be an utter lack among the people of
the elements which go to make a
house CT worship homelike to the
stranger, especially the man in uni
form. These men rather than feel I'M
easy and unhappy at such services, re-
main away.
Judging from the writer's own ex-
perlenees and observations, it seems
10 be too sadly true Not until the
masses can be convinced that we are
not mere aristocratic societies, can we
ever hope to fill our half empty
churches.

BRITISH MANAGEMENT OF THE WAR

British home criticism of the army and navy
has largely ceased in the last few weeks, ac-
cording to Associated Press dispatches It is
thought the general public has either settled
down to the belief that everything is being
done about as well as possible, or has tired of
writing letters to the press.
The war office has now enlisted the services
of businessmen with experience in carrying out
big enterprises to take part in the work of.sup-
plying the army, and the labor unions have
volunteered to watch the execution of govern
ment contracts, not only to see that proper
equipment and rations are supplied to the sol
