AGAIN NAMED TO
HEAD AUXILIARY
Annual Meeting of 0utrigger
Club Branch Shows Society
in Good Condition

Mrs. F. NJ. Swanzy, who has held
the office since initial organization six
years ago, was reelected president OF
the Woman 8 Auxiliary Of the Outrig-
ger Club at the annual meeting OF that
society yesterday afternoon About 40
members were present
Other officers chosen to serve dur
ing the coming fiscal year were Mrs
Andrew Fuller. vice-president: Mrs.
Isaac VI. Cox, second vice-president;
Mrs. W. A. Wall, secretary. and Miss
Elizabeth J. Jones, treasurer. The
new directors for the year win be Mrs.
J. A Gilman, Mrs. Eben Low. Mrs
John Sorer, Mrs. w. j. MacNeil, Mrs.
Alfred Rasch. Mrs. A. G. Smith and
Miss Marie Ehrhorn.
In brief address, Mrs. Swanzy out
lined the work done by the auxiliary
during the last year, reporting that
financial conditions are excellent and
that membership affairs are as good
as could be desired. The organization
now has a limited membership of 500.
including 465 townsfolk and 35 service
members The waiting list now con
tains the names of more than 200 per

ocean at the waikiki boundary of the
clubs premises at the beach. Some
Of the members were of the opinion
that the stream should be diverted, as
1t discoHrages bathing in that vicinity
Others favored the retaining of the
stream, stating that, il it is removed,
the growth of coral will be promoted
at its mouth. One officer says that
the general opinion seems to be that
the stream should be made smaller
and cleaner. ~--
Mrs. Theodore Richards reported
that she had interviewed Superintend-
ent of Public Works Charles r. Forbes
regarding the stream, but that he was
unable to give her any definite infor-
nation as to what will finally be done

LEARNING A LESSON.
kh-s

Sixteen months are vet TO run on the term OF
the present board of supervisors
If the board stands squarey by its announced
policy of enforcing the frontage-tax law ae-
cording to the deliberate and matured reason
ing of its advisory experts, it will not take SIX
teen months for the property-owners of Homo
lulu to know that the day of haphazard local
Improvement is past. And when they realize
that unless they come in under the frontage
tax law their streets will go unimproved, their
attitude will materially change. .....r<>..
The city has eoncusively good reasons for
not adopting the plan suggested by Attorney
p. L. Weaver, on behalf of l.. l.. McCandless.
That plan proposed big Improvement district
to take in the business section, from the water
front to the upper side of Beretania street and
from Alakea street westward to the junction
of King and Beretania streets and a line
drawn from there to the lower end Of
River street Supervisor Single has shown
that all questions of other policy aside, the city
simply has not the money available TO swing
such scheme And the Pauahi street owners,
unwilling to agree to the Improvement of a
smaller unit, kill the pending project.
To citizens such as these, the city must be
disagreeaby but calmly firm If they won t
Join in an Improvement which is feasible their
streets must go unimproved. This is the lesson
that obstructionists must learn.
The pity is that the firm, outstanding policy
was not adopted long ago; that it was not put
into effect by the preceding board of supervis-
ors after the passage of the law by the legisla-
tnre. The city would be two years advanced
IN permanent Improvement if the plain provis4
ions and intent of the law had then been insist
ed upon

SAFE FARMING.

The IL S. department of agriculture has cir
culated a circular through the South, much of
which would be profitable practise for the
small farmer in Hawaii. 1t is called "Safe
Farming and the safety measures recon-
First. Produce home garden, the year
round, paying special attention to plot Of
Irish or sweet potatoes sufficient to supply the
family with food of this character.
Second. Produce the corn necessary to sup
port all Of the people on the farm and the live
stock, with absolute safety.
Third. Produce the necessary oats and other
small grain to supplement the corn as food.
Fourth. Produce hay and forage from some
forage crop sufficient to supply all of the live
stock on the farm Use legumes such as clover,
cowpeas, velvet beans soy beans and alfalfa
for the production of hay and to enrich the soil
with nitrogen and humus.
Fifth Produce the meat necessary to sup
ply the people, through increased attention to
poultry and hogs especially. Plan to increase
gradually the number of cattle and other live
stock SO al. to have sufficient number to con-
sumo the waste products of the farm and make
The waste lands productive
Sixth. After all of these things have been
amply provided for, produce cotton for the
market
Not all Of this is applicable literally to Ha-
waiian conditions, but the general idea of it
certainly is Supply the needs of the farm
family and the stock from the farm itself as
Ear as possible. A farmers net income is the
difference between what he pays for, what he
buys aud what he gets for what he sells. He
can make money! quite as certainly by hav-
ing less to buy, as by having more to sell-a
fact which is in danger of being overlooked. !.

EDITOR

This is pressing pretty far the Oriental theory
that all persons of weak mind are under spe-
eial protection of providence, Mr. Ford is not
any particular brand of simpleton. The only
thing that distinguishes him from the ordinary
run of rainbow chasers is his wealth.
What credit does he deserve for desiring the
end of the war, of the terrible loss of life, the
unspeakabIe suffering, and the colossal destruc
ton of property Is there any decent human
being who does not share these feelings! Mr.:
Ford $ foolishness consists not in his wishing
to see the war come to an end, but in his think
ing that by the influence of his money and the
presence in Europe of a menagerie of cranks
and faddists with no official sanction from
their own country, he could bring about truce
and have 1.-the boys out of the trenches by
Christmas.

The fight on Louis ID. Brandeis of Boston
bears the earmarks of corporation hostility.
Brandeis' radical tenets are probably not want
ed ON the supreme bench by some Of the big
corporations, and SO he is accused of multi
tude of sins. A former associate intimates that
Brandeis did not play fair with his clients, the
people, ina railroad rate case. But in Boston
Brandeis is known as a lawyer who was always
in fight for the peoples interests. 1t should
take some mighty strong proof to prevent the
approval by the sepates Of the presidents
nominee. ~

opinions are probably as widely quoted as those
Of any New York paper. Since the war began,
however, the Republican has given signs of los

clonded msfegthan once by womanish senti-

Of his peace pilgrimage by Henry Ford, it

Last nights performance of La Boheme"
was perhaps the best in all-around excellence
the De Folco company has given since it
opened here. As the close of a financially dis
astrous season draws near, Honolulans regret
that the company's troubles have shortened its
stay and may deprive Honolulu of opera for
years to come And yet under experienced
management such an artistically capable COM
pany as the De Folco organization can make a
distinct financial success here.
