Five years of the Quickest kind of effort brought
an army polo team yesterday just to the threshold
Of the achievement of defeating an Oahu quartet in
a championship tourney. Just TO the Threshold
then the tide of hard fought battle turned the 9th
er way and the army four lost by a narrow margin
Whichever way victory had gone yesterday would
have been greeted with general applause, for the
play was keen, the riding and hitting hard and
swift, and the scoring extraordinarily close The
army played on the offensive most of the way and
with better luck and skill in goal.shooting would
have run upa higher score The result Of the game,
while disappointing to those whose hopes were
bound up in army success, showed that the military
four is one of the best polo teams Honolulu audi.
ence has seen. Once again the value of a close-in
field was demonstrated. The audience looked rather
small on the big bleachers but it was considerably
larger than could have been mustered for mid
week game at Moanalua and the Kapiolani Park
field unquestionably has put polo games within the
scope OF the average man who likes sport but has no
great amount of money to spend on his amusements

II. A. Bruce of the great financial firm of n. w.
Halsey Accompany Of New York made an interest
ing point yesterday in an informal talk before the
Rotary Club upon war loans. He pointed out that
the Central Powers-in this case meaning Germany
and Ahstra-lad raised their loans internally, the
people of the two countries subscribing fer the gov
eTnnent bonds. This process could go on almost In
definitely, he indicated unless and until the people
themselves grew FESTIVE or uneasy and refused TO
support the government. Neither of the two peo
pies has yet shown signs ofobjecting to the gov
ernment's financial moves, and Mr.. Bruce sees no
to believe that the Teutons at the end OF
their financial string. 1t is obvious that most OF
the prophets who have been predicting early end
to the war because of the financial strain are ttak
ing through their hats" though the abIest economist
could not with certainty foretell what this war
would bring about in national and International
financing 3d. -..@ .~"-:
