Instructors In This Branch of
Public School System Will
Increase Efficiency

Vocational instructors of the Teri
tory met in the office of Superintendent
II. w. Kinney yesterday, to discuss the
problems of their work and discover
ways and means of improving it. The
session lasted most of the day and
proved exceptionally interesting, the
discussions bringing out into clear re-
lief some things that had proved diff,
ficult of solution to the individual in.
structOrs.
One of the features of the talk was
the need of more work in the smaller
schools, and it was decided that, now
that il the larger schools the WJrk is
well under way, and in good hands,
more time is at the disposal of the in
structors for improving conditions and
charging the work of the smaller
schools.
After a thorough thrashing out the
instructors adopted new report forms
for themselves and their assistants,
and the teachers then visited the voca,
tiOnal shop at the Kaiulani school,
which is under the direction of Ken C.
Bryan.
Among those present were r. C..
bowman, in charge of vocational work
in Maui; f. A. Greevey of Kauai, Ken
{. Bryan for Oahu, and f. G.. Allen of
Hilo. Harlan Roberts of the Terri
tOrial Normal School and Inspec tor.gen-
eral George $. Raymond were also
present.

Traffic on the Oahu Railway aud Land
Company s line up the coast was inter
rupted yesterday by;several minor wash
outs between Waianae and Makaha, but
a wreeking crew was sent out in the
morning and Manager George P. Deni

damage had been repaired sufficiently
to permit resumption of service all
along the line by this morning.
Between Waianae and Makaha, a six
lie stretch of track lies along a pre-
cipitous slope where the sand was rap
idly washed away by the water Mon
day and Monday night. Despite the
handicap a service was maintained by
the railway, trains approaching from
either end of the washout.
The train due in Honolulu early yes

Waianae experienced perhaps the
heaviest deluge of any local point in
Oahu, reports from that region varying
in degree, from FIVE inches in seventeen
hours to twelve inches in three days.

Housewives who are often "all I'M

But nervous troubles often come from
kidney weakness, and then the best
help for 1t is to help the kidneys.
When the kidneys are slowed up from
cold, or some unseen cause, their work
of filtering the blood is hindered. Pois.

were picked up and brought to town by
others more fortunate. The whole
country below the Damon estate was
under water which, after the force of
the torrent had subsidized, left a great
lake where before were cane fields and
rice patches Much damage is thought
to have been done in the neighborhood,
especially in the tarO and rice fields
Residents of the peninsula, who hav'
been accustomed to make the run from
their homes to the city in autos, were
using the trains for their daily jour

Chilean Bark Drags Anchors
Three Hours Before Being
Wrecked At Port Allen
(From Wednesday Advertiscr)


How the Chilean bark IvanhOe wal
wrecked at Port Allen Saturday nignt
was told by officers OF the Matsom
steamer Hyadcs, which arrived h,rJ
yesterday morning from Kauai.
The IvanhOe and the bark British
Woman were anchored in the bay wesC
Of the break water. The British Yeo.
man was TO the west of the IvanhOe.
Both were anchored head to the wind.
A southwest gale was blowing and
there were heavy seas. The Hyades
put out to sea and anchored One-half
mile east of the place where the two
windjammers were lying.
Distress Signals Go Up
Between ten and ten-thirty 'clock
Saturday night the lvanhoe began to
drag her anchors. Rockets went UP
soon after, and the Hyades received
fash signals from the British Yeoman,
but all that could be made out was
tress. Fires were burning on the
beach, and, at first, it was thought thai
it merely was a Christmas celebration.
Some three hours after she began -
drag anchors, the lvanhOe swung al OuI;
it was said that one anchor chaih
parted; and, lifted by a sea of tremem-
dOus force, was east bodily against tn,
bTeakwater, brOadside on. She broke
in two almost Immediately, and the for
ward half, in the play of the surf, was
shifted so that the bow was head o.
the breakwater. In this post ion sh
lies now. The after half was not to be
seen.
1t was thought that she might have
been beacbed on the sandy strip west
of the breakwater. When she struc&
the rocks her blooms hung over the
hreakwater, and her crew was warnel to
jump. All except two did, and they
were lost.
Worst In 25 Years
Kamaainas at Port Allen said that
the storm was the worst in twenty-five
years The crew of the IvanhOe Is ex-
pected here from Kauai today or Satur-
day.
The Hyades arrived at Port ALE

cargo there by the rough seas. Hope
of being able to work was abandoned

RAIN EVERYWHERE

Rain and vet more rain has been
the order Of the week, all the Islands
getting their full share Most of the
plantations which had commenced the
1916 harvest have slowed down or en-
tiroly discontinued grinding operations
until the fields dry out, or there is a
break in the weather.
No serious damage has thus far been
reported and no one objects to the
down pour which has generally replen-
ished the storage supply. The cold
weather which almost always comes
during January and February will
ripen the cane and improve the juices,
These rains are just what is wanted to
boost the 1917 crop.

This decision was reached after n

were talked over. They are c. M. CO.
