Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1915-07-12

/ ing pile oyerflowed an upstairs room
in the Star Bulletin office, and spe.
cial space was cleared In the base
ment On Thursday. July 8. the Star.
Bulletin announced that contributions
4 would necessarily have to be closed
the following day There was a grand
climax OF reading-matter yolplaning
into the office on Friday and belated
lot on Saturday.
Meanwhile, to confess the truth, IL
began to lock like serious PROPOSE
ticR to send the huge consignment to
Samoa. The Star Bulletin called on
Postmaster Young and Postoffiee In
speotor Thomas j. F'layin and found
both OF them anxious to cooperate In
every way But at the best figuring
anyone could do It would cost q small
fortune in postage to send the ship
ment.
Admiral Moore, who was already a
contributor TO the shipment, interested
himself in seeing that the reading
matter reached the Samoan station,
and when the Oceanic Steamship Com
pany agreed to carry the big shipment
free, the problem was solved The
Oceanic company deserves special
thanks fer finding a way to put this
shipment on beard steamer already
chcek-a4bloek with freight. The Ven
tuTa could take on but little addition,
al at this port. Part OF il, however,
Is that 47-sack lot of reading matter
for Samoa.

heap OF books, magazines and papers
ready for shipment the Star-Bulletin

time. I'll get you the boys to help
out on this job said Mr.. Robley on
Friday evening, and on Saturday
morning he tackled the job. Harry
Hayward had some of his ever-alert
Boy Scouts, too, and on Saturday
morning General Robley marshaled
his forces. All Saturday morning they

Many contributions reached the
Star-Bulletin with the request that no

cases there was apparently an error
in the names, so that the following

ages reached the Star-Bulletin office.
