WEEKLY TINES
UPHOLDS BOARD
in BROWN CASE
Maui Paper Criticizes Kauai
Chamber for Taking Sides
With Wainlea Teachers

The Weekly Times, published at
Wafluka, Maui, has gone On record
as strongly supporting the board OF
school commissioners in its action
in failing to reappoint Mr.. and Mrs.
H. C.. Brown, principal and teacher
respectively, in the Waimea, Kauai,
school.
In its edition of Thursday, July 10,
the Times prints the following edi-
torial:
"The case of Mr.. and Mrs. H. c.
Brown, two discharged school teach
ers in Kauai, has become quite a
cause celebre owing to-. the fact that
Governor Pinkham was asked to In
tercede for them, which he very SEN
sibly refused TO do, and that the
Kauai chamber of commerce went out
of its way to use its prestige and
influence to make the superintendent
of public instruction. reinstate the
rebellious pedagogues.
I'VE commend Superintendent Kin.
ney for his firm stand in the matter.
The Kauai chamber of commerce ap'
parently thinks very lightly of insub'
ordination and disobedience to the
rules and regulations governing the
conduct of teachers under our school
laws. Mr.. and Mrs. Brown have been
the cause of much trouble to the
school department for some time
past. Their attitude toward the SUI
perintendent, the supervising princip'
al, the vocational instructor, and the
inspector general has been one of de-
fiance and reprehensible opposition
THE department of education re-
quires teachers to be familiar with
the school laws, and to be examined
from time to time orally or in writ
ing on the subject Mrs. Brown re-
fused point-blank to be submitted to
such examination by the supervising
principal. She was informed that
she must take the examination or
leave the service of the department
Reluctantly she at last consented
but when the time came for the test
she again refused, then thought bet
ter of it and wrote out some of the
answers, but ended her paper with
the following sarcastic and insulting
words: School in session, no time
to complete this farce
She ought to have been fired Their
and there, but the department did moi
wish to act with undue haste. 1t was
only after Mr.. Brown had seen I'll

| tanned in letters from the superintend
ent of public instruction that the
school department decided not to re
appoint the couple.

the rising Of the waters.
The entire western portion of the

Three dams gave way during the
storm which precipitated the floods,

Cor the last month shows the least
number of arrests for June since 1912
and the smallest amount of fines,
