HAWAII GUARD
TO FORM TWO
new COMPANIES

! !. r..
Decision to rearrange two of the
companies of the National Guard on
the island of Hawaii, making two COM
panies out of each, was one Of the
chief results of the visit which Brig
gen. Samuel I. Johnson has just COM
pleted there.
The two companies, namely Com
pafly L in the Hanlakua district, and
Company M in Kohala have approxi-
mately $50 men each, which viii make
possible division into two companies
each of more than the required
strength of c. roe
Gen. Johnson said this morning on
his return that the guard work on the
Big Island is showing up very we'll.
and this division will be merely a1l-
other step IN its growth. No special
effort will be made to increase the
present enrolment of the new com
panies
Guard companies on Hawaii as on
al the other islands, feel the lack Of
Equipment, Gen Johnson says, and
the spirit with which they are work
ing is commendable Visits were
made to all the plantation towns Of
the Hamakua district during the gen.
erals stay.
Capt H. L. Holstein, who rendered
his resignation some weeks ago, has
withdrawn it to await decision in the
matter OF whether or not legislator
can belong to the guard.

In the matter of funds, so far only

that the contributions this coming
week will be numerous and generous,
go that the printing. electric light
fixtures, and other incidentals can be
paid promptly before, during or imme-
diately after the Baby Week"
The exact schedule of dates and
hours for physicians who will make
the physical examinations has not

ance can be given that several will

YOUNG PUPILS
OF PUNAHOU in
MUSIC RECITAL

Spontaneity in Youthful
Students

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence. ]
|s1AfIU col .LEGE. April 15.-Yes-
terday Afternoon occurred very in-
teresting musicale at Punahou Acad-
envy. This was q recital by the young
pupils OF Miss Pearl Sutherland and
Miss Lillian Parish.
The children Tecs:al is unique and
for very definite purpose. It strives
to keep clearly before the mind Of the
child the fact that he is practising
for a definite purpose, that purpose
being public musical performance for
the pleasure Of others.
Too long have children been forced
to monOtonous drills and exercises
without the benefit of any encourage
ment or stimulus to cause them to APP
ply themselves. Their little exercises
are not very interesting to many old
er audiences and their playing OF
these drills is not such, usually, to at
tract much pleasing comment upon
them. But when the child realizes
that he is to present his selection to
a number Of friends there is new
stimulus to practise and new inter
est in the work.
This view Of securing interest and
applications in music among children
is thoroughly modern and human It
has another value IN that it makes
appearing In public a thing of less
nervous anxiety than it is so often If
the student has no public playing until
he is older It is often quite impos-
sible to remove the nervousness arts
