THE SEA OF PEACE

l stand above a white-rimmed sea: Its deeps are mine, its mrrored height; Mine Its low plaint of mystery All mine its glee song of delight Mine it's strong soul; it's body mine; lave me in it's kind embrace; In dreams upon it's buoyant brine IL gives me back a cherished face Mayhap it helps me understand The language of infinity, The secret of the shifting sand. The testimony of the sea. l am above all circumstance 1 am beyond all power to hurt No more l shrk from sorrows lance So with all strength am begirt. I've tasted of the bitter sup. Earth's bulwarks all are proven frail: Yet sweetened now is life's low cup All haowed 'tis my Holy Grail Above it's wrecks of ships and men The placid ocean shows no sears; Above my deeps where storms have been My tranquil soul reflects the stars

The Choice of The Republican

For the same reasons that The Republican yes terday announced it's support of Hon. Carl Hayden for reelection representative in congress it states that it favors the election of A. A. Betts member of the state corporation commission. It will be recalled that two years this paper sup ported F. A Jones' democrat, for membership of the commission. It's choice of MT Jones then made because of his superior training for work and his long experience in such matters come before the commission.
 The training and Experience of MT. Betts are similar to those qualifications of MT. Jones' With these two men constituting a majority of the com mission. that body would be efficient one We regret to say that 1t has constituted 1t has often been far from efficient

priation 20! the city attorneys investi-
CATION rand was deferred by the SUI
eperVisOrs last night. -...-.- -
Supervisor Hatch took advantage of
the occasion when the. proposal to APP
propriatc money from the wafer
works fund for the investigation conn.,
mission VAS submitted TO the board
to say that the commission had been
a little unbusinesslike in its dealings
with the finance committee: that. il
had not brought in 4 detailed state
ment of the uses to which the $4,000
asked was to be put bat had said that
there was a liberal allowance for con
tingencies. At his suggestion the mat
ter was referred to the finance and
water works committees Jointly.
At the last meeting the request for
additional funds was left to be consid-
cred when the budget for the next
fiscal period is made up. A proposal
that tnn water department advance
the mOncE 1T once has been submit
ted since then and has the approval
of the wafer committee and Harry
Murray, manager OF the water works.
Discussion On the need of the attOr-
ney'S department for $500 TO meet
investigation expenses was the occa-
sion for a sharp exchange of criticism
between Supervisors Hatch and Arm
old. Hatch asked that action be de-
{,
to the propriety Of the. expenditures.
Arnold arose and suggested that as
the attorneys were conducting impor-
tant work in Investigating the activi-
ties Of qnack doctors the appropfia-
ton be passed. -...F
Hatch resented the implied criti-
cism Of his committee and said So
Asserting that there was a principle
involved he declared that he would
| take all the time he thought necessary
before reporting the matter Arnold

resolution appropriating the $500 at
the next meeting and the matter was
closed A few minutes later the two
were warmly advocating another mea-

gotten their tilt . 49,

NO NUUANU Dam
WEAKNESS FOUND
YET, It APPEARS

An hour Of technical questions and
answers occupied the hearing last
night by the special advisory commit
tee of engineers upon the safety Of
Nuuanu dam. with Chairman F. b.
Smith leading ne: way. questions were
put to Fred G. -kirchhoff, engineer for
the city water works, George Moore,
tender at the dam, James T. Taylor,
engineer for theaOahu water investiga-
ton commission, and Harry Murray,
superintendent of city water.
Kirchhoff'S testimony was the most
interesting as we'll as the most techni-
cal Of the evening. He has made sew
eral examinations of the dam and the
pipes and gave the results in engineer
ing terms last night In general he
through the pipes, and possibly
through the dam structure itself, the
leakage is not enough to make the
dam unsafe. ...
Chairman Smith, Ed J. Lord, Carl
B. Andrews, R. Rowland and Super
intendent OF Public Works Forbes did
the questioning They were particu.
larly trying to find out whether the
water known to be leaking through
the dam comes through inability to
close the pipes or through the dam
structure; also whether faults in the
wooden-stave pipe necessarily consti-
tute a menace, or whether the con-
crete covering may remain intact. The
answers, while indicating that the con-
crete pipe is probably all right, were
not conclusive, and it was noticed that
Ed Lord made the comment that a
good deal of water is running to waste
even with the valves closed, possibly
indicating serious leaks through the
dam structure. IF.
Chairman Smith appeared to take
the view that nothing has yet been
found to indicate structural weakness
or danger in the dam.
The committee will make another
visit to the dam Sunday and crawl
through the main pipe. AT later hear
ing it is expected that T. F. Sedgwick,
the water expert who claims that the
leakage is such that the question OF
the dams safety is involved, will be
called fer testimony. Ii

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE

which she stood. Was Mary just going
upstairs?
Stepping to the door. she looked out
into the dark hall. AS she did so, a
soft whisper attracted her attention.

woman whom she had tried at first
to win and who had repelled all her
advances?

she Has an Uneasy Night

I'm going!" the woman said. but
remember. Good night
A second later Jane was standing
alone in the hall.
Creeping back into her husbands
room. she stood listening. Augustus
was evidently sound asleep. No pangs
of conscience nor STRINGS of pity kept
him awake. 1t was his habit to sleep
through an entire night. Therefore he
would not know whether his wife lay
down in this room or in the other.
The bed in the smaller room was al
ways made up and ready for occupancy.
Jane had seen to this herself soon after
she came here to live. Now she went
into the little room. closing softly the
door of communication between that
and the apartment in which her hus-
band lay
She crept into the single bed with
sigh of relief. Here she might toss
and turn and think out her problem
without fear of disturbing any one.
She was sure she would sleep quietly
here.
But many hours passed before slum-
Der came to her. She was reviewing
the events of the evening. Ruth's
words, her own promise, and her hus-
bands harsh commands.
She knew that these last must be
followed. But how could she bring
herself to obey them? For obedience
meant the alienation of the friends
whom she had hoped to win back to
her.
Although she did not lose conscious
ness until we'll along in the small hours
of the morning. she was up, dressed,
and had her bed made before the
alarm clock wakened Augustus from
his slumbers- ~
He did not know that she had not

SINGLE COMB ORPINGTONS
COPYRIGHT 1916

The Orpington is a breed of fowls
of which there are twelve varieties
and the late William Cook is given
credit for their origin. He spent many
years in England breeding and per-
fecting a fowl that would lay plenty
of eggs. especially in winter, and
with this in mind he was successful in
bringing out the Black White, Buff
Jubilee and Spangled Orpingtons in
the order named, and in both single
and rose comb varieties. Since then
other English breeders have added
the single and rose comb. Blue Or
pington.
They lay brown eggs and the hens

ing, but do not give them so much
that they will have no desire to dig in
the litter for grain Keep them busy.
Ground oyster shells and grits should
be furnished frequently in the form
of weeds from the garden, clippings
from the lawn, cabbage leaves from
the cellar, or, best of all in the Win
ter, sprouted oats. Keep them warm
at night. In winter they will spend
about fourteen hours on the roost An
adjustable curtain should be arranged
during the severest weather to con-
serve the heat of their bodies and
protect them from the deadly frosts.
Not worth the troubled" do you
say? Get your system running rightly,
and fifteen minutes a day should be
abundant time to take care of the lit
tie flock. But get the right feeling
toward the fancy and you will want to
spend more time than you can afford
to in caring for and caressing your lit
tie faithful feathered pets. But,
YOU say, will the results material
iZe?"
Eggs For the Getting
I talked with my neighbor, a bank
president. He's businessman clear
through. I said to him, How many
hens have you?"
Il have fifteen" was his reply.
'Have you been getting any eggs
this fearfully cold weather." l asked
him. 1t was the latter part of Janu-
ary.
30, yes." was his quick reply. "I
get eggs every day. The largest num-
ber 1 have gotten from the fifteen
hens in one day this month was ten"
He explained further that he got in
winter a little more than half as
many eggs as he keeps hens. Tens of
thousands can tell the same story.
The man who does not get half as
many eggs as he has hens right
through the coldest weather of winter
is not doing justice to his little flock.
The hen that will lay twelve dozen
eggs within the year is no longer a
subject of special interest. A man
who keeps 1.500 told me that his av-
erage per hen last year was 166 eggs.
The "200-egg hen" is no longer a
freak. She can be found in almost
any flock. The 300-egg hen has come,
and we are going to see more of her
kind. Our State and national govern
ments and our great universities are
searching for the possibilities of the
little hen from every scientific and
practical point of view, and all the
findings are most favorable.
