Discusses Wars Effect

Returning in the Chiyo Maru from

retiCence with respect to the details OF
contracts obtained.
Il have only visited Japan" Mr.. He
demann said in reply to a question as
to the extent of his oriental travel
on this occasion. What took me
there was the intention Of one of the
big sugar companies to increase the
size of two of the central flctories in
Formosa from nine-rOller to l2-roller
mills
They expect more cane this year
and next year than they have had the
past two years. 1t is in Japan the
same as it is here, the temporarily
high sugar prices encourage them to
make some very immediate improve
ments, so that they can meet the slack
times which they anticipate will come
to them also.
"As soon as the European market
is relieved Java will again ship it's
sugars into Japan. Formosa can pro.
duce enough sugar ordinarily to sup
ply Japan and its own needs, but the
last few years typhoons and other
troubles have reduced the crops to
such an extent that Java sugar has
had to be imported to, meet the de
mand.
"A great deal more Java sugar goes
now to Europe than formerly, owing
to war conditions. This has caused
the price to Japan to 60 up and in
duced the planters to decide on mill
ing improvements this year.
Il have had a successful business
trip" was all that Mr. Hedemann
would say when asked about contracts
brought home.
There are no indications at all in
Japan that there is any war on the
other side of the world, so far as
outward signs 60. Life in the streets
and in the houses goes on as serenely
as ever. But large houses in the ex-
port trade to Europe claim that bust

PUNAHOU. April l3.-There was

mothers yesterday afternoon IN
Charles r. Bishop Hall. come togeth-
er TO discuss the school problems in
relation to the home. President Grit
fiths presided. called the meeting to
order and stated that it had been
asked that he perform this office un-
til a chairman was elected to preside
at this meeting and future ones dur
ing the coming year Mr.. d. l.. With
ington, chairman of the committee,
was elected for this Office.
Mrs Norman Watkins and Mrs.
George ROdiek were elected members
Of the committee in place OF Mrs
Eben Low and Mrs. Frank Damon,
who are not able to serve.
The securing Of simplicity Of dress
among the students, in particular the
girls. was the most important topic
discussed at the meeting. No sugges
ton was offered that met with unani
nous approval Everyone expressed
the idea Of need Of some form OF
action and many ideas were offered
1t seemed a little hasty to adopt
uniform but everyone agreed that
greater simplicity in dress was re
Quired During the time until the
next meeting, which is in May, it is
being planned to lay the whole pro
position before all the mothers, and
consult some Of the students and pu.
pills, to see what the general idea is
concerning a uniform.
A few other questions were dis
cussed. Certain sanitary matters
connected with the sweepings of the
buildings, and of the dangers of the
automobiles that come through the
grounds, at the time Of the opening
and closing of school, were referred
to the trustees. 1t Is known that the
trustees have been considering for
some time these two questions, and to
limit the danger from automobiles it
has been advised that certain gates
be closed and automobiles travel on
certain roads. Another suggestion has
been made of reviving the old custom
Of the Punahou wagon, collecting the
children at school time.
At the end OF the meeting a social
gathering was held, where the moth.
ers met each other. II was an inter-
esting meeting, and proved a good
start toward the goal for which the
meetings have been organized.
Paul wilmington, an old Punahou
student, passed in the examinations
in one of the Boston hospitals. He
was an inferno on the staff, and
among the SO who took the examina-
lions he was one of the best. This
entities him to any position he nay1
choose to take on the hospital staff.

JERSEY NIETHODISTS
FOR LOCAL OPTION BILL
Conference Urges House Of AS
sembly to Confirm Action of
Senate.

ATLANTIC CITY, March s.--Foresoeing
fight in the House at Trenton against
the local option bill. rushed through the
Senate last week, the New Jersey Metho-
dist Episcopal Conference this morning,
on motion OF the Rev. j. Ward Gamble
of Pennington, hurled a direct appeal to
the lower branch of the Legislature for
similar action.
"Rejoicing greatly in the action OF tho
Senate" says the resolution, this con-
ference, representing $1,000 Methodlsts,
does earnestly petition the Assembly to
send the bill to the Governor for his sig
nature"
Bishop Henderson in advocating every
day evangelism drove home the thought
that every pastor should make an every
Sunday appeal for converts. Evangelism,
he maintained, should be a continuous
performance.
Secretary Snyder was directed to send
n telegram advising Speaker Godfrey of
conferences action on the local option
bill.
BY rising vote the conference unani-
mously indorsed the movement for a
Billy" Sunday campaign in Camden in
1916.
A resolution was adopted by Conference
pledging support to the woman suffrage
amendments In the Legislature, against
which the liquor interests arc arrayed.
After sharp contest Asbury Park was
chosen as the next place of meeting OF
conference. the vote being S6 for that
place against 81 for Atlantic City.

NO MORE FREAK CLOTHES
FOR HIS MAJESTY, BABY
Child Federation Provides Fixed
Styles for Newlyweds' Guidance.

The wardrobe of his Majesty, the
baby, will no longer be selected In hap
hazard fashion, but will be carefully or
dered. The ladies in waiting, members
of the advisory board of the Child Fed
Grafton and prominent in social circles,
will see to 1t that hereafter only alb
solutely correct attire Is offered this
royal parsonage.
1t all came about because heartless,
vulgar and unprincipled store clerks i'm
posed upon mothers. Instead of offer
ing correct clothing, they persuaded fond
parents to buy some fancy garment,
gaudy, expensive and wholly useless.
Snookums has even been seen in n seal
skin coat, bought by some foolish mother
So to protect tho newlyweds from this
deception, the advisory board, in con-
junction with the nurses and physicians
of the federation, have selected three
laycttee. The first will contain only
the bare necessities and will cost about
s.. The second will be a little more
elaborate and will cost about $780, and
the third will be for babies of well-to-do
parents and will cost about $50. These
layettes will be placed for sale in depart
ment and drygoods stores which have
the backing and support of the Child
Federation. Maternity hospitals and sim
liar institutions will cooperate In the
movement by distributing circulars among
mothers and urging them to buy one of
the three styles OF layettes.

DELAY FOR WOMEN JUDGES"

The four womon assistant judges"
who were appointed" by Judge German
of the Municipal Court, to assist in ham
ding cases of delinquent girls. will not
take their seats ION the bench" until
President Judge Brown returns from
Bermuda next week. From letter which
Judge Brown sent to Judge German it
seems that the letters announcement was
more in the nature of a suggestion than
of an appointment. While the reasons and
sentiment expressed by Judge German
appeal very strongly to the other Judges.
the letter adds, certain legal questions
involvel must be determined before def
mite action may be taken. Judge Brown
also stated that the woman court officers,
although given no formal titles, are, in
every essential detail assistant Judges"
