THE Y. w. c. A. CAMPAIGN.

On several occasions the Star Bulletin has
been glad to draw to public attention the
worthy needs of the Y Nj. G. A. ON the eve of a
membership or fund campaign, and this paper
is equally glad to emphasize the value to the
community of the Y. w. G. A., which today be-
gins the important work of raising $14,240.
The Y. NJ. G. A. has done and is doing in its
field duty not less constructively valuable to
Honolulu than the duty of its brother organiza-
tion. A glance over the proposed budget, as
published in anothercolumn today, shows some
thing of the growing range of the "Y. W. ac-
tivities, but it will hardly indicate the democ-
racy of spirit and sense Of inspiring oppor-
tunity with which the leaders of the Young
Women Christian Association approach and
carry out their work
The energy of the association in securing new
and commodious quarters has brought the or
ganzation new responsibilities. To make the
most Of its new ''plant each department must
run full time. " No halfway measures are
desirable. And because the Association is con-
stantly reaching out for new work to do, new
fields to enter, its needs have gone rather far
beyond its income.
Subscription to the Y. w. G. A. fund is not
straight charity. 1t is just as much good bust
ness for the city. No businessman would con
sider as charity the giving of thousand dol
lars I'm q good roads campaign, or toward Pro
motion Committee funds, or into fund to meet
an epidemic emergency. He would consider
such giving as part of good citizens partici-
patton in the affairs of his city. He would ex-
pect that the results in better streets, or in de-
veloping tourist traffic. or in safeguarding
health, would all help future business IN Homo
lulu Now the Y w. G. A. work helps to make
Honolulu cleaner city, safer city, more
healthful city, more intelligent city, pleas
anter city. 1t gives young women education,
wholesome recreation, health, opportunity to
make their own way in the world.
Every good industry deserves support. The
Y. w. G. a. is operating good industry, a
sound industry. These three days should see
its budget deficit more than made good.

In spite of much recent bad weather, the i'm
provement Of that portion of Kapiolani park
which will be used by the Hawaiian Racing and
Polo Association has gone ahead steadily, the
sheriff cooperating with the association in using
prisoners to do some of the unskilled labor.
The Improvement is much appreciated by the
general public, and so will be the Inauguration
of polo there The Star Bulletin has long con-
tended for polo at Kapiolani Park and believes
that with one season to demonstrate its value
and popularity, the Association will have
unanimous support for the development of the
new field.

Local Warehouses Leased.

Numerous tobacco men have been
noted in Kingstree during the past
week or so, and all four of the local
warehouses have been leased for the
coming season, and will be operated
by experienced warehousemen from
Virginia and North Carolina. Cor
reil Brothers, prominent warehouse
men. of Winston Salem, N C, who
have operated one of the large
warehouses here for the past five
years, will not be here this season,
but the house operated by them last
year has been leased by Messrs
CO Watts. W P Powell and H G
Lee of Danville, who will operate it
this season. The Central warehouse
will be operated by Mr. E L Morgan
of Burlington. N C. The Kellahan
warehouse will be operated by Mr.
George Bass. of Danyille, Va. while
the Nelson warehouse will be run by
Messrs w K Mcintosh and E ] Hes
ter, the latter being among the pio-
neer tobacco men of the Kingstree
market. Mr. E Carroll Burgess will
also be connected with the manage
ment of the Nelson warehouse this
season. From all reports there will
hardly be more than one-half of the
usual crop this year. but the general
opinion among tobacco men is that
the weed is going to command high
prices this season. While the crop
is SO per cent short the stand is said
to be good.

the IHRICE-A-WEEK EDITION
OF THE
NEW YORK WORLD.
Practically a Daily at Price of Weekly
No Other Newspaper in the World Give.
So Much at So Low Price.

There has never been a time when a
newspaper was more needed in the
household. The great war in Europe
has now entered its second year, with
no promise of an end for long time.
These are world-shaking events, in which
the United States. willing or unwilling,
has been compelled to take part. No
intelligent person can ignore such issues.
The Presidential contest also will soon
be at hand. Already candidates for the
nomination are in the field, and the cam
paign, owing to the extraordinary char
acter of the times, will be of supreme
interest. No other newspaper will in
form you with the promptness and
cheapness of the Thrice-a-Week edition
of the New York World.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular
subscription price is only Sl.0O per year,
and this pays for l56 papers. We offer
this unequaled newspaper and The
County Record together for one year
for $l.75.
The regular subscription of the two
papers is 500.

UNITED STATES SOL
DIERS RELEASED.
WHETHER WAR HAS BEEN PRE-
VENTED OR ONLY POSTPONED
OFFICIALS ARE UNABLE TO SAY.

Washington, June 2S:--An i'm
mediate break between the United
States and Mexico has been averted
by compliance with the American
demand for release of thetwenty-
three troopers captured in the fight
at Carrizal.
Whether war has been prevented
or merely postponed no one here
would attempt to say tonight. Of
fetal information as to the attitude
of Gen Carranza was lacking. Un-
til his response to Secretary Lam
sings note, dispatched Sunday. max
ing two peremptory and distinct de-
mands is received. there will be no
decision on whether President Will
son shall lay the crisis before Con-
gress.
News of the release of the prison
ers, received early tonight in press
dispatches. brought undisguised re-
lief to high officials. 1t was accept
ed as correct, although no announce
ment had come through official
sources.
While it generally is conceded that
this move lessons tensions and makes
the crisis less imminent, no one con-
versant with the grave problem is
losing sight of the fact that the all
important question of Carranza's at
titude toward the American expedi-
ton across the border to protect ter
ritory and citizens of the United
States from bandit outrages remains
unsettled. If the de facto Govern
ment stands upon the orders to Gen
Trevino to attack Pershing's men
when they move otherwise than to-
ward the border, the situation actu-
ally is what it was before. except
that there now is a possibility OF
diplomatic negotiations that did not
exist while the Americans were held
prisoners at Chihuahua.

Firemen Return home.

The Kingstree firemen returned
last Friday from Orangeburg. where
they attended the annual convention
of the State Firemen's association
and participated in the racing events
of the week. They are highly elated
over their trip and their success in
the consolation race which took
place last Thursday. In this race the
boys lowered the State record by
making the run in % As seconds,
defeating competitors from Marion.
Sumter, Abbeville, Laurens, Bishop
vile, Bennettsville, Orangeburg, Dar-
lington and Georgetown. The prize
was $l00. Members of the company
who participated in the race were:
T E Arrowsmith, captain; E E Rodg-
ers, pullman; T A Blakely, breaker;
Carl Hornaday ,nozzleman; Woodrow
Gamble, driver; Harry Britton, catch;
William ] Britton and H E Parham,
helpers.
This IS the first time that the local
company has taken part in the events
of the association, and the people of
Kingstree have a right to feel proud
of their boys and the showing made
at Orangeburg.
