Old Saws and Sayinas.

A few old sayings on the subject OF
food come to Us rather as a surprise In
our age Of daintiness and refinement,
yet they have their raison d'etre not
withstanding. Meat Is much, manners
are more;" "Cease your chatter and
mind your platter" 1.-The ass that
brays most eats least" 1.-The wing with

to note that manners" was the --me

Cataelysmie Geology.

Cataclysmic geology no longer e1-
lists. It was once the accepted opinion
that the great changes in the earths
surface had been mainly brought about
by sudden and violent (cataclysnic}
agencies, but Sir Charles Lyell, as far
back as 1898, demolished the old theory
Of cataclysm at once and forever. Sir
Charles proved by facts which were In
disputable that the great geological
changes have been produced slowly by
gradual processes Of subsidence and
elevation and not by earthquakes, vol
canic action. etc. Lyell may be said to
be the father Of scientific geology.

FIRST BASEBALL GLOVE.
Story of the Little Third Baseman
I~,n E;e&

Story Of the Little Third 8aseman
With the Iron Fist.
About 1s67-6S baseball team came
to Rockford. H., to play our nine,
says a writer in All Outdoors. They
called themselves the "Unconquered
Clippers of Illinois and plastered our
town with big posters. We made up
our minds to give them drubhing,
and at the end of the game the score
was Rockford. 76: Clippers, Q.
There was little chap playing third
base who grabbed everything that
came near him. and held it too. l
noticed that he wore a kind Of glove
When the game was over ! went to
him and asked what it was that be
wore on his hand. he told me that
be was a machinfst and had got his
hand badly hurt the week before. and
be showed me the wound in bis palm.
he said the boys did not want hin
to play in that game. but he got q
piece Of thin sheet steel and made
it slightly concave, but so that It did
not quite touch the sore place. BE
then made a short glove to cover all
the hand excepting the first joints OF
the fingers and doubled the leather IN
the palm so that be could slip the
plate between.
/ asked him If it hurt, and be said
1t did not and that he could take hot
one and hold it better with the glove
than without it. That IS the whole
story. l don't think that Spalding
ever talked to the little chap with the
iron fist. as the boys dubbed the third
baseman. but everybody. in Rockford
knew about the mitt and he may
have got the idea from him. Anyway,
that was the first glove that any ball
player ever wore.

A Cueen Who Was a King.

Only once in the history Of the world
has a queen been officially known as
king. This was In Hungary, when the
Hungarians gave the name Of king to
their Queen Mary in order to avoid
the infamy which the laws Of that
country cast upon those who are gov
erned by women. She bore the title Of
King Mary till her marriage with Sigis-
pund. After that she took the title OF
queen.

HARD FACTs-oPTIMIsM.

The t. S. Geological Survey deals in hard
facts-literally and figuratiyely.
And here is what the director of the depart
ment says of business conditions in an address
before the American Mining Congress-
Evidence of business betterment is before
us on every hand, and the reasons for optimism
are many The United States farmer has har-
vested FIVE billion dollar crop and there is a
high-price market for all our surplus food
stuffs already our grain is pouring across the
Atlantic The millions of men who are fighting
are not working, and yet these hordes of sol
diers must be clothed and equipped as well as
fed. Foreign orders have started factory oper-
ations which at once tends to relieve the stag
nation in the steam-coal trade, the steel situa-
ton has turned from serious depression to rapid
Improvement, and the whole mineral industry
may soon expect to share in this general bust
ness Improvement
To-day the financial horizon is so nearly
cloudless that the prophets of bad weather have
little upon which to base their predictions. The
new federal banking system makes the money
reserves mobile as never before, and extension
of credit is now possible without the veto
power remaining in the hands of a small group

business betterment is the recognition, now be-
coming widespread, of the general interdepend-
ence of big business and the general public On
the one side, the people are realizing that they
are and have been in reality the silent partner
in big business, and now that there has come
the promise of some regulation that will in
large part prevent monopoistic Capitalization,
the people are interested in getting their share
of returns that can come only with operation
at a profit. On the other hand, the managers
of the large corporations, the trustees of the in
vesting public, are beginning to see that GER
tain financial security goes with public conf
dence, and that the attitude to the public so
tersely expressed 80 years ago by pioneer in

SELLING MUNITIONS OF WAR.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir:-The strictness with which we,
that is, the mainland, buckles on her
accoutrements of neutrality in this
great world struggle is a feature to
be proud of by every American citi-
zen, and our, that is, the mainland's
business acumen is worthy of all
praise when this war in Europe is
looked at from a purely business
standpoint We, that is, the mainland
is handing out millions of dollars
worth of ammunition to "all concern
ed" with the Teutons getting their
share. OF course we, that is, the
mainland, are not actually putting this
ammunition right on board the fight
ing ships and in the blood-soaked
fields, but it seems to be reaching the
right spot" through neutral countries
of which there are still a few left in
the Old World
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1915-01-22

or course, il we, that is, the main
land, is charged up with few deaths
Indirectly in this war it will make
no difference. Are We our brothers
keeper? Who can contradict the fact
that We. that is, the mainland, is do
ing more than its share TO relieve the
sufferings of the widows and orphans
over there? At the same time are we,
that is, the mainland, not making a
big profit out of the business Of fur
nishing ammunition to the fighters,
and are not thousands of workmen in
this country, that is, the mainland be-
ing given work and making good
wages? Did We, that is, the mainland,
not send recently a shipload of proyi-
sions to the starving people of the
warning countries? Sure we did; and
at the same time we, that is, the main
land sent forward six or seven ship
loads of ammunition, and did We not
send the Jason" overloaded with
Christmas cheer? q i
!. Let US, that is, the mainland, not
slack up for second with the ammu-
milton factories. Keep them running
day and night so that we, that is, the
mainland can keep these warning ma
tons well supplied with death-dealing
projectiles and bullets. Cannot Ha-
wall get in on this grand commercial
coup? But, then, business is bust

ROSE grown BY
ELECTRIC Light
ON exhibition

In the window of the Promotion
Committee with the pictures of Kauai
is bne of the most magnificent speci-
mems of the rose that has been grown
in Honolulu. 1t has the name The
Electra Superba" and was reared by
electric light under the care of Mrs.
Edward Towse, Eleventh avenue, Kai-
muki
Both Mr.. and Mrs Towse are out
door enthusiasts and in an area of 10
feet by 10 feet they are demonstrate
ing that it is possible at the cost OF
two cents night to conduct a rose
garden that produces flowers without
a blemish. Not a rose is attacked by
the Japanese beetle, for this insect,
which begins action promptly at dark
and feeds for two hours, retires to his
hole in the ground before 10 o'clock.
Mrs. Towse turns on the electric
light just before dark and turns 1t on
before 10. The Japanese beetle will
not feed in the glare of the electric
light and the result is that perfect
roses are produced 1t rs said by Mrs.
Towse that anyone may in this way
produce in Honolulu the rarest and
most perfect kind of roses without
any fear OF the Japanese beetle.
Others in KaiTnuki are now begin
ming to grow roses by gas light and as
but two hours of light night is need
ed, the cost is small. The Electra
Superha is the first rose grown by
electric light to be exhibited in Homo,
lulu.

A correspondent writing to the Advertiser
urges that tour people should insist on the
Irwin site, now that the Mahuka site is turned
down. = The arguments for the Irwin site are
many and potent, but about the best thing for
Honolulu to do now is to "let Nature take its
course" That's what the commercial organi-
cations of the city agreed to do in putting the
whole matter up to the treasury department
for settlement after years of local pickering.
The chances of local expression influencing the
treasury departments choice at this late date
are about as nil in thousand. The choosing
of the site may be delayed but hardly swayed.

EDITOR
GUsSIEGARDNERISM.

John O'Keefe, the gifted Irishman who
writes for the New York World editorial page,
has coined new phrase, gussiegardnering. y
This refers to the activities of Congressman
August Gardner who conjured up japanese
spectre yesterday in Congress and trotted it
out before his presumably startled and I'M
pressed hearers.
Suppose the japanese do approach US some
day with demand for equal treatment. What
are we going to do!" shouted Gardner.
What men of common sense would do-what
the United States will do if the jingoes DON
get into power-is to handle the delicate prob
lens of Oriental relations so effectively that
Japan would never need to come to Uncle Sam
with a demand for equal treatment. Men
like DR.. Sidney Gulick and DIR. Smaller
Mathews, through intimate and sympathetic
study, are on the path to a solution of the prob
lems They work night and day to preserve
cordially, and then along comes gussiegard-
nering statesman who betrays an apparent con-
tempt for Japan that is entirely unjustified
The problem of Japanese-American relations
will never be solved if it is approached on the
premise that America is somehow peopled by an
entirely superior race who look down upon the
rest of the world. OF course that isn't a gen
eral sentiment in America. 1t is a gussiegard-
ner sentiment.
japanese leaders understand that gussie-
just as American leaders understand that the
rabid jingoism found in Toxic is not Japan
csc characteristic.
