CONE TO START
Line HERE

Breaking all records for carrying
automobiles and motor trucks from
the United States to Australia, the
Oceanic liner Ventura, an arrival at
Honolulu at noon today, has IS cars
for delivery at Sydney. Thirty heavy
motor trucks are expected to be COM
dandeered by the colonial military
authorities Immediately upon the ar.
rival of the Ventura. They are to be
used by the British army In the CONT
mental war zone N.
Capt. j. II. Dawson reported very
rough trip as the vessel came within
SEQ miles of the islands. In his opin-
ion severe storm has developed far
to the southwark of Hawaii. The Ven
tura bucked heavy seas and, strong
gales which accounted for the delay
of several hours in its arrival.
Twenty-Five cabin and three steer
age passengers left the vessel at this
port Proceeding to Australia are 40
cabin, 81 second class and 20 steerage
passengers. Fast work will be done
in discharging so tons of refrigerated
cargo for Honolulu.
Purser F. v. r. Baker told an inter
esting story of the death Of Lincoln
lBeachey at the big aviation meet at
San Francisco Baker was specta-
tor on the deck of the United States
army transport Thomas.
He said Beachey dropped within 20
feet of the troopship then at the trans
port dock at the exposition grounds.
The aviator, strapped to the seat of
the machine, was buried more than 90
feet In the mud His body was recoy-
cred after several hours spent In dig
ging. The wings OF the monoplane
simply crumpled like cardboard. In
the opinion Of spectators the engine
was too heavy for the framework.
Within 15 minutes after Beachey
fell to the earth, a corps of moving pic
tIire operators were photographing the
damaged machine, and the EFFORTS of
the rescuers. Baker says that evening
pictures Of the fatality were shown at
several San Francisco playhouses. Al
film which repro6 iced the accident Is
carried to Australia In the Ventura.
The beginning Of. a promised jitneyl
bus service for Honolulu is predicted
with the arrival Of the Ventura.
Twelve chauffeurs from Portland and
the Pacific Northwest were among
the passengers for Honolulu. They
said today that the cars to enter al
jitney service in this city would arrive
here within fortnight
3 The men were brought here by d.
McCune. who intends to run the line.

Your Corner has been great help to mo and through you have made some dear pen friends that shall always prize and that have been such a help to the children and to me. Now l come to you with an offer and also with request. 1 will gladly send canna lilies or chrys carna lilies or chrysanthemums (plants) to any one who will send postage. or will try to find for the Cornerites any wild flowers that they want, as we live almost in the woods, among the hills. As to my request: Has any one pieces suitable for patchwork which she can spare? My little girls and l are trying to earn 2 little by quilt making The children are learning to sew and to put things together with good taste. c. M. $.
 This is tempting offer and l am sure it will be met with enthusiasm. I trust the response and the gift of the quilt pieces may be as prompt and as cordial At this time of year. when dressmaklpg is going on. there are sure to be pieces and remnants which will work well into quilt making l must not omit to say word of thanks for the cordial salutations which I value none the less because dO not put them on the printed page. They are recorded on my heart.

NEED OF A CHAPERON

putting check upon unlSind gossip from cansorious persons who heard of the cir eumstance.
 Again and again l have known of oc- currences like this when the chaperon has been a tower of refuge to girl who was not well or who had had a slight acci- dent to her dress or to herself. The young people of the party may be all one could desire in correctness of conviction and of conduct but their lack of experi- enee handieaps them when unexpected exigencies arise.
 So I am heartily in favor of the chap eron md I have seldom known well brought up lads and girls who did not pre- fer to have one of the right sort along to take the responsibility and serve as a ref erence in emergencies. have chaperoned parties to the theater. to sports of various kinds on long evening and daytime rides. on picnics, and many other forms of amusement and I have never seen any reason why one holding such a position should be spoilsport The properly be- haved young people do not object to her presence; the i'll behaved if there are such, certainly need her us protection against themselves and their own foolish- ness.
 When it comes to ehaperoning a pair of young people to the theater or to a social affair of any kind, customs differ in differ ent places and in various circles of so- ciety. In some large cities and In the most fashionable sections of those cities a chaperon Is considered indispensable in almost any conditions For example, a young man cannot take a young woman to the theater without chaperon. Still less can he escort her to dance or even ing party of any kind unless some older person goes along.
 I have known numbers of places where this would be accounted absurd, but the fact remains that in most of our so-called best society" some one Is in attendance upon a girl when she goes to an evening gathering Either a maid takes her there and comes for her. or her father or other man relative escorts her to and from the affair. Never is it left to chance with whom she shall return home.
 Here again a good deal of possible am noyance Is saved girl I have known cases where young woman has trusted that she would either have some man offer to escort her home or could depend upon friends who might be going her way and has been left in an embarrassing position by the failure of her plans. In such con ditions as these the thought that there Is a chaperon upon whom she can rely is great comfort

And hold ft is far better to err in the raght diree- tion and to be too careful than to run the risk of being placed in trying circuin- stances which wild cause distress and may provoke scandal or harsh criticism.
 To come back for moment to the mat ter of the dinner l wish l knew more about it and the people taking part in it than my correspondent has told. l can hardly think that the parents can be of the variety who would be an em- bargo upon the freedom of their children guests, or they would not be willing to absent themselves so cheerfully. For my own part should think they would en- joy meeting the friends of their daugnter and making them welcome to the house. On the other hand. was 1t the daugn- ters suggestion that the father and mother should not be present at the res- tivity9 In that case 1 feel decidedly that there was need of a chaperon, and can not hold the training of the young girl m high esteem if it could even occur to her that it was the correct thing for her t' entertain party at dinner when no older person was present to lend dignity to the occasion.
 One of the criticisms which has been uttered upon American society by for eign visitors is that 1t Is too crude ana raw, because the older persons are ban ished from 1t just when they have reached the age when their experience and ob- servation are ripe and would be of value and interest. An instance like this seems to prove the point.
 Curiously enough. I heard a little incl dent only yesterday which illustrates an opposite point of view The case was q woman of oa who invited few friends to dine with her. After the outlines oe the dinner were settled her mother said: Dear, l think l will just have my dinner in my own room that evening. Some of your friends are strangers to me and 1t will be better. perhaps. for me not to be present."
 The daughters eyes filled with tears.
 "Then I will recall the invitations. j. she said. Do you think l would have a party in my mothers house if she were not to be present to grace the occasion? 1"
 What do other mothers of daughters and of sons think of the question under discussion? How do they look upon the banishment of the parents from the tabls at dinner or from the psrlor when they receive their friends9 We have many mothers among our Cornerites. I woul( like to learn their feelings upon the matter. and 1t would be interesting te know the views of the daughters. as we'll
