Wins in Fight
MADE BY HAPAI

An important piece of litigation,
which took two Honolulu attorneys to
Washington last month, was settled
by the supreme court day before yes
terday, and as a result, when A. A.
Wilder arrived on the Great Northern
this morning he was met with the
good news that the opinion had been
favorable to his arguments and his
client, the Cornwell Ranch of Maui.
The case is that of Henry Hapai vs..
the Cornwell Ranch, and involves IT,
tie to the cream Of the ranch lands.
IL was argued before the supreme
court recently with Judge Wilder rep
resenting the ranch company and Lor-
rim Andrews representing Hapai.
When Wilder arrived today, his law
partner, Judge w. L. Stanley, broke
the good news that the case had been
settled in their favor

CLASSES START
OFF BRISKLY At

Following Immediately upon the
great opening week at the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association Is the or
ganiZation OF second term classes in
the educational department Glasses
I'm stenography and in English f.r
foreign women were organized Monday
night, but IL is expected that there
will be many additional registrations
for these classes this week, as well az
for business English in which class
will be organized next Monday even
ing.
Three classes, which should be pop
ular, met for the first time last eve
ming. These are millinery. Spanish
and singing. Millinery is being
taught by Miss Jeanette Matthews and
Miss Grace Dougan. the head milliners
for the Il. F. Ehlers Company. Pupils
in this class will bring their own ma
terials, and will make hats for them
selves and for their friends. The tut
ton fee may therefore be considered
an investment upon which the-return
will be financial as we'll as education
al
The Spanish will be taught by Senior
Pedro Alfonso Martinez, who has that
acquaintance with the spoken Ian
guage which comes only to those who
use II as their native tongue. The
course is designed for elementary
work in conversational Spanish both
for those who need IL for commercial
purposes and for those who desire il
merely as an accomplishment.
The glee club will be under the d.
rection of Miss Edith Garfield, whose
musical reputation in Honolulu is well
established. This class will devote
half an hour to technical work and
half an hour to chorus work. The
course Is designed not for those whose
voices would warrant their preparing
for an operate career, but merely for
those who like TO sing and who wish
that they might sing with better uR-
derstanding of how and why.
Glasses which will organize later In
the week include sewing, cooking and
typewriting. Miss Annetta DECK
mann, the educational secretary, an
nOunces that classes other than those
now scheduled will be organized as the
demand warrants. Requests for a day
time class In English for foreign wo-
men are being considered. 1t is prob
able also that Friday afternoon class
IN cooking will be organized for
school girls.

Il dreamed of green mountains. of

owners OF the Denver Post, in a talk
today at the Ad Club luncheon at the
Young Hotel, which was one of the
hest luncheon talks that has been Civ

Il came from the cold. and the snow
of the Rocky Mountains TO Los An

SOW nothing of the beautiful islands

why Hawaii has been called the Para
disc of the Pacific 1t is truly nam
ed, and gentlemen, ] would urge you
to keep Paradise of the Pacific con-
stantly before the public 1t is a sio-
gan that is real. You who live here
can certify to that statement
Hawaii is infinitely more beautiful
than the Rivera or any of the coun-
tries bordering on the Mediterranean
You have paradise that should be
advertised more, and those who spent
their time in the cold countries during
the winter would appreciate the beau
ties of Hawaii. Keep hammering at
the beauties that you have in Hawaii
and the results will be attained.

mediate. selfish interests when he
works for and with this Ad Club.
You give your time, energy and means
working for. Honolulu and for your

advertising the islands in the best
way possible. You show to the world
that you have faith. If you don't have
faith and show il how in the world
could you expect strangers to have it p?
Your desire to work for your city. TO
speak well of it and to improve it in

while am convinced that every
county and city must have the goods
before it commences to tell the world
about them, still the matter of let

that will be good for them is a. very
important part of city building. -.
when city has something good,
II believe in speaking right up and
telling the world about il. and Homo

convinced that your town is the best

when a city has a story to tell,
tell il. If it is the truth people will
say it is great city-also that it
knows how to advertise If the city
with real good story does not tell it.,
that city of course will be classed
with all the other dead ones.
Extreme modesty on city's part
is just as bad as superabundance
of diffidence on the part of man APP
plying for a job. The city with the
ability to tell forcefully and honestly
what it has, gets there, just as the

Dramatizing the Army.

In Lieut.. Col John H. Gardner, retired in
charge of recruiting at San Francisco the United
States army seems to possess a military Oscar
Hammerstcin
few days ago the wires carried the news that
Col Gardner had urged the War Department to
permit the detail of a squad of soldiers to con-
stitute a vaudeville team which should tour the
country and appear on the bills of vaudeville the
aters just like any other actors. The purpose was
to show on the stage some of the details of army
life, as a means of stimulating enlistment
The scheme possesses merit. Soldiers who
take part in wild West" shows undoubtedly have
been the means Of inducing numbers of enlist
ments, and should the vaudeville suggestion be
adopted large number of urban residents un-
questionably would be reached who otherwise
have no cause to give the army a thought Also
such a team might serve to bring the enlisted
personnel into the more intimate consideration
Of the mass of the people, with corresponding
betterment of the esteem in which the service
uniform is held
But now Col. Gardner has gone that proposal
one better, rather twelve better, for he has
advertised for the services of dozen girls as re-
cruiting agents
The advertisement is headed Twelve Girls for
the United States Army"
Catchy, to say the least.
1t is specified by COL Gardner that the girls
must be attractive, intelligent and industrious,
and his ad declares qualified young women can
make money and do their country service.
mo triflers need apply" warns the colonel
It's no triflng matter, surely, when an attract
i've, intelligent and industrious young woman in
duces one to enlist for seven years service under
the starry banner.
The persuasive smiles of these deputy recruiters
will radiate from a demonstration station in the
Golden Gate City, where all the details of army
life will be shown, from company cooking to in
fantry drill.
The girls are to be paid 81 for each man they
enlist.
1t is possible, of course, that the fair head
hunters will get husbands as we'll as dollars
