NO INTERPRETER
needed FOR THIS
YOUNG WITNESS

Officials and spectators were highly
amused the other day in police court
when little 10-year-old Lee Ma TIE re-
fused an interpreter. Il can speak
English; l go an English school at
Wahiawa," proudly averred the lad.
He was a witness against MERGED
Placido, Filipino, an alleged pick
pocket caught removing a small knit
money bag from the boys side coat
pocket. Placido has already spent
one term in Jail on similar charge,
and the judge found him guilty and
sentenced him to eight months i'm
prisonment.
In pronouncing sentence, the judge
took occasion to remark that the desk
sergeants of the police department
could be a lot more efficient in the
matter of getting surnames correctly
spelled, but that Christian names
we're also very important, and they
should always obtain Christian names
to aid him in fixing penalties.

But be will not suspend him
I'll just let the matter rest until

recently.
Last week, when Gray was first aC-
cused, the mayor declared that a man
under charges should be suspended
Il shall do everything | can to keep
the department free from danger of
contamination or suspicion" he said
The sheriff should suspend him and
if he doesn't do it | will ask him to-"
Then he went to the attorneys of
flee and asked whether the sheriff
could not be compelled to suspend
Gray. He was told that there was no
necessity for this step as he had the
power himself to suspend a police Of
ficer.
Since then he has not taken any

WEATHER BUREAU
FINDS SUN-SPOT
SYSTEM USELESS
Uncle Sans Scientists Con-
Clude Long-Range Forecast
ing is Absolutely FaIIacious

After a thorough and impartial Sc
ries OF tests, the U. s. weather bu
reau has officially declared that fore
casting of weather by observations OF
sun spots is worthless, and in view
Of this the local branch Of the bu,
reau has this week mailed TO its lao
cooperative obServatories in the
islands the findings of the bureau, ell
titled, Warning Against Weather
Forecasting Fallacies."
AT the present time" says Mete-
orologist A. NJ. Hamrick of the Ho-
nolulu branch, the U. S. weather bu-
reau's forecasts result in from So to
80 per cent verification. In other
words, SIS or 80 per cent of our
weather predictions come true. IL
another system could gain better re-
suits, we would be the first to adopt
1t, but after thorough study of the
sun-spot method, the bureau has found
1t to be of no efficiency or practical
use, and hence is distributing this
warning"
The circular is signed by c. F. Mar
win, chief of the U. S. weather bu-
reau, and in speaking of the bureaus
tests OF the sun-spot method of max
ing weather forecasts, says:
The latest Misrepresentation of
this character now being presented to
the people of the country in the col
umns of the daily press is an alleged

forecasting said to be based on the

its shafts of solar radiation.

received fair and impartial study and
examination by its scientific staff.
Moreover, other scientists Of interna.
tional reputation now connected with
the strongest institutions in the world
engaged in astronomical research and
conducting investigations in solar and
terrestrial physics have also passed
upon these new theories. -.1.
These authorities are in accord
that the deductions and conclusions
drawn from the solar conditions on
which the new system is based are un-
warranted Solar phenomena of the
kind described do not have any direct
Influence upon the weather at any par.

cannot be made the basis of weather

'The weather bureau is endeayoring
70 render a useful service to the ag
ricalture, commerce, and navigation
of the country, and the chief of the bu-
reau is prompted to state openly and
emphatically the views of the bureau
on the questions presented in the fore
going, because the general public is
entitled to know that the government
officials pronounce this new scheme
and place 1t in the same
class with other methods of long |
range forecastiag based on lunar,

10 something yourself!

DO something yoursel1!
Cheer up and stay cheered.
Time, tide and the war wait for no
man.
Old Uncle, however, still has few
drops of red blood left.
Incidentally, it is more profitable to
60 out and get thing than to howl
because it doesn't come your way.
But. then, preparedness might even
be extended to the commercial welfare
of this town.
Upon second thought, this is even a
better town than we imagined. Tie to
it.
But the pessimist, you know, sees
an opportunity after the optimist has
grasped it.
Soon, however, the poor dove of
peace will have no place even to call
its roost.
The wise man, you know, is a man
among men, but the fool is just only a
fool.
Amidst all of the excitement of wars
and rumors of wars, don't lose sight of
the fact that you can hear a mighty

THE election is over. Good men
have been elected and good men
have been defeated. The election
was a quiet, affair. there being no
bitterness shown as is sometimes
the case in elections. Now is the
time for not only the mayor and
trustees to get busy. but for every
citizen of the town to join the
procession, get together and work
for a greater Dolores. The fact is
that if Dolores is to be town of
ten thousand population within the
next five years, we will have to get
busy at once. We believe a board
of trade or some such organization
would join our people together so
that we could work along definite
lines to secure certain things to
advance the interests of Dolores
and the surrounding country. 1t
is true that we once had such an
organization and made some mis-
takes. and if we organize now we
will probably make other mistakes
but we will not need to make the
same ones he made before. Think
this matter over.

Know That Insects Help Raise Crops.
1t is we'll known that most of our
crop plants will not form fruit and seed
unless the flowers are properly pollina-
ted. The principal carriers, of pollen
are wind and insects. In some plants,
such as the beet, both wind and insects
play an important part in the spread
of pollen. In all cereals and grasses,
and in the potato, the pollen is carried
mainly by wind. In most of our COM
mon plants of garden, field and orchard,
insects are the chief and most effective
carriers of pollen. The following is a
list of insect-pollinated plants: Onions,
asparagus, buckwheat, gooseberry,
currant, cabbage, radish. turnip, rasp-
berry. blackberry, strawberry, apple.
pear, plum, cherry, peach. alfalfa.
clover, melons. cucumber, and squashes
We are very dependent upon the bees
and other insects for a good crop yield.

Or course we have all heard of
killing the goose that lays the
golden egg" We think too much
or our splendid farmer friends to
liken them to the awkward feathery
tribe, but they surely are the people
with the golden eggs. And isn't
it just possible that we of the town
are the geese" in that we fail to
take measures to connect up with
the eggs of gold? Isn't it possible
that we are neglecting the interests
OF the farmer to the extent that he
in time becomes indifferent to US
and sends his baskets of precious
metals to other points in payment
for his necessities? Again we sug-
gest broader spirit of reciprocity.
We suggest that measures be taken
to see that our farmer friends are
afforded every facility for the
prompt and profitable marketing of
their every markable product right
in this town. Good roads over
which to haul his produce is one of
the things most needed by the
farmer. and if the citizens of our
town join in the agitation for better
roads it may help some. 1t does
not require any great amount OF
intelligence for a person to see the
financial significance of such a
course. And don't neglect the
wife and daughter of the farmer
when they, too. come to town. 1t
should not be necessary for them
to spend hours on their feet waiting
for the farmer to transact his bust
ness before returning. A comforta-
BILE waiting or rest room should be
provided in the business section of
town. where they can while away
the tedious hours of waiting by
reading, writing or visiting with
one another. Let it be general
meeting place for all who come to
town. When we do this we will
find more of the farmers golden
eggs rolling into this town. Let's
combine business sagacity and
neighborliness to our common
good.

Are Yos Getting Hall An Egg A Day.
The United States has . population
of little more than one hundred mil
lion, and the annual egg production of
the country is estimated at twenty
billion. If all these eggs were used as
human food, it would mean half an egg
per person daily.
Are you getting your half? OF course
not!
Millions of these eggs are used for
Matching purposes, millions more are
made unfit for food by carelessness on
the part of the farmer or producer and
by improper methods of shipping and
storage, and still millions more are
used by factories, tanneries, bakeries
and numerous other industries.
In spite Of all this, eggs are con-
sumed in great numbers as human food.
At least three-ffths of the people in
this country will eat their breakfast
tomorrow morning in part or wholly of
eggs. Fully half of this great throng
will eat dinner in which eggs or poul-
try as meat are utilized, and more
than two-thirds of these people will
eat eggs in some form or another for
supper.
Strickly fresh eggs are always in
demand, and frequently retail in our
large cities at prices which make them
prohibitive to any but the wealthy.
According to present indications, the
supply will never equal the demand
