STORM DAMAGE ON
THE WA|MEA SIDE

The rainstorm of last week was
probably not heaviest on the Hama
lei side of the island, as was at first
supposed, after all. Waimea valley
appears to have gotten the worst of
it, and the happenings there are of
interest. For instance:
A japanese named Miyake lives
Cor lived about three miles from
Waimea, up the valley. When the
food came down from the noun
tains he realized that his place was
in danger. Taking two of his chill
dren in his arms and third cling
ing to his neck, he waded to higher
ground, the water being almost up
to his waist. Shortly afterward the
forsaken house was lifted by the
flood and carried down the river.
About a mile up the valley the
house of one Ogata was carried from
it's foundation and lodged in grove
of orange trees.
Several japanese lost their crops
of vegetables, their gardens being
buried as much as two feet under
sand washed down from the high
lands.
The japanese store at the junction
of Waimea river and Makaweli
stream was several feet in water,
while water rose SIX inches in the
parlor of r. Blackstad.
Although the mouth of Waimea
river was open, Sc great was the
flood from the hills that the water
rose over the retaining wall recent
ly constructed and submerged the
streets of the town up to the higher
levels at and beyond the premises
of the Waimea Wine Company. 1t
is the opinion that had the mouth
of the river not have been open the
whole town would have been wash
ed out.
The rain was general all over Ka-
uai, but appears to have been heavi-
est toward the mountains.

The Christmas Mail

On account of heavy seas the
steamers leaving Nawiliwili Friday
afternoon did not take the mail.
All of the Christmas letters and pre-
sents intended for Honolulu were
left on the dock here, and did not
get away until Saturday night On
account of the fact that both Sun
day and Christmas are postoiiice
holidays, in Honolulu President
Patterson, OF the Kauai Chamber
of Commerce, appealed to the city
postmaster to have the mail from
Kauai delivered on Sunday. and al
so asked the good offices of the Ho-
nolulu Chamber of Commerce in
the matter. The result was wire
less from Secretary Brown, of the
Honolulu Chamber of Commerce,
on Sunday stating that the Christ
mas mail from Kauai would be dis
tributed by carriers that day.

THE CANTA1A At
THE u|HUE CHURCH

The Nativity of Christi cantata,
on Sunday evening, at the Lihue
Union church, was, perhaps, the
most ambitious musical event ever
presented in Lihue and was a great
success. The full chorus OF fourteen
selected and trained voices gave
power and volume, yet with careful
modulation and expression that
was most effective. Tne solos inter-
spersed through the cantata were a
very alarming feature OF it, and
were finely rendered by Mrs. H. 1.
Sheldon, Mrs. X. c. Ahana, and
Miss NJ Wood, sopranos; Mr.. w.
N. Stewart and Mr.. A. G. Kaulu-
kou, tenors: and Mr.. E. w. Car
den, bass. Mrs. w. H. Grote han
died the organ with skill and preci-
sion. The initiative and executive
behind the whole affair was Mrs. j..
NJ. Lydgate.
The musical part of the service
was preceded by scripture recltations
Of the Christmas story, largely in
concert, by the Sunday School chill
dren, which were very well done.
The church was beautiful SYM
phony in red, of shaded lights and
NOTED red flowers, with fine Nor
folk Island Christmas tree OF gener-
Gus proportions, suitably decorated
for the occasion.
The collection amounted to S6o.ZI
which will go toward macadamizlne
the entrance roadway, a much need
ed improvement.

PARK IDEA A JOKE,
SAYS R|vENBURGH

The Honolulu Advertiser of last
Tuesday contained the following,
alleged to be the opinions of Land
Commissioner Rivenburgh concern
ing the proposed summer camp
plans for Waimea Canyon.
Hawaii has no more need for a
camping park on Kauai, on the up
per Waimea ranges, than a monkey
has for two tails, according to Ber-
tram G Rivenburgh, land commits
sioner, who, in company with Hy-
drographer G.. X. Harrison and
Superintendent of Forestry Judd,
made a visit last week to the site of
the proposed park, returning Sun
day.
The land is now, Mr.. Rivenburgh
says, an arbitrary forest reserve,
having been set aside as such by
Senator Knudsen, of the Garden
Island. 1t is in Wild and practi-
cally inaccessible country. The land
is now held under lcasehold, but
part of it will revert to the Terri
tory next year, and the remainder
the year following.
When the land reverts 80 the Ter
ritory, it will form, part of forest
reserve, Mr., Rivenburgh says. In
fact, it is now practically such a re-
serve. 1t was set aside as such by
the Knudsens, and no other use is
being made Of it.
Therefore, says Rivenburgh, there
is no necessity for setting it aside as
park. If Kauai people or people
from Honolulu or other parts of the
Territory, want to camp on the
land, all they have to do is to gel
permission from the forestry board
which will be a mere formality.
There is now no good road to the
land, says Rivcnburgh. The Knud,
sens have maintained a s.rt of trail
but each winter this is washed out
However, says the land commission,
er, if the people want to 90 on the
land and camp, there can be M
particular objection. 1t is nothing
the land department has anything
to do with.
Rivenburgh said yesterday that j
The Garden Island. [volume] (Lihue, Kauai, H.T.) 1902-current, 1916-12-26

it developed that enough people
want to go to the Waimea upper
lands to camp to make it worth
while, it was possible that the legis-
lature of 1919 might be asked to
appropriate about $1,000 to build
a permanent road up the mountain.
But for the present he could see no
need of any such action.
Rivenburgh rode over the noun
tain for two days, he said, and was
half frozen most of the time. There
is plenty of water there, he says,
but to make it available, it will
have to be diverted into other chan
nels.

1t is reported that the cry oftenest

Of the languages of southern Europe
and in the more rugged speech of the
northern lands, voices are heard calling

These cries of dying men for their

Men never can outlive it and never have
Outgrown it utterly. 1t belongs to men

When lighter passions long have

So deep it is. and pure:
Whose love hath longer dwelt,
