HAWAII boy WRITES
OF STRIFE IN FRANCE

ing of the Hawaiian Rowing Ass6cia,
tion held last Friday night that HiIo

cared crew will be entered by each
club. -
NThe races will be rowed in Hilo har-
Dor and o grandstand will be erected
on Kuhio wharf.
1t is now up to the Hilo merchants

five, three and one.
In future regattas boats will have
to keep to their own water throughout
each race.

ticular industry, we have been i'm.
proving our efficiency under the pro-
tective policy. The argument present.
ed by some that protection has re-
tarded our efficiency is not true in a
general sense. The tendency of our
people is to buy the best goods, when
ever procurable, and American man
ufacturers have striyen, and are striv-
ing. to supply them. But If our man
ufacturers are to be held to the scale
Of wages now paid our laborers, their
efficiency must certainly be destroyed
by reason Of the influx Of European
products into this country at rates OF
duty designed solely for the purpose
of raising revenue, the labor cost OF
these products being from one-half to
one third the cost Of similar commod'
tiles fabricated here. That is axio-
matte. We must return to the policy
OF protection, whatever the party in
power. It Is that or industrial dissolu'
ton.

RETAIL MERCHANTS
Are Being Helped BY Trade Commission
Suggestions.

Tho Federal Trade Commission has
found that the majority Of retail mer-
chants do not know accurately the cost
of conducting their business and for
this reason they are unable to price
their goods intelligently. There must
be decided Improvement in this direction
before competition can be placed upon
& sound basis and before We can expect
g. decrease in the heavy business death
rate among retail merchants. There IS
Il tendency among retail merchants TO
conduct their business without all adr-
quate system for determining their cost.
This condition carries with it various
undesirable results. In the first place.
the merchant is unable TO price his
goods intelligently and conduct his bus!-
ness upon sound business principles.
In the second place. he is unable, when
seeking credit. 10 produce correct
statement Of his financial condition
which would enable Il banker to extend
TO him the full credit TO which he is
entitled. He thereby limits The possible
expansion of his business.
Formerly the necessity for the de-
termination of true costs was not us
Imperative as it is today. Margins be-
tween cost and selling price in most
lines were larger. Costs could be g-
norcd except In general way and Il
good return still BE- made on the in
VeStment; but today margins of proiit
in most lines Of trade are very much
narrower than formerly. and the neces-
sity for the most efficient management
and closest analysis is felt as never be-
fore. \ large proportion Of business
men are not making the money they
should. \ great number of them are
actually losing money. Tho purpose OF
conducting Il business TO make
money, and the only way TO make
money is 10 sell something for more
than 1t costs. The first essential. then.
Is to know the cost. 1t is the belief of
the Commission that the small margin
OF profit existing in so many Of our
trades and Industries Is due to the
ignorance on the part of the business
men OF what their goods actually cost
to produce and sell. This ignorance
causes them to make improbable prices
which the merchant who does know his
cost is forced tn meet TO large extent.
The Commission is urging merchants
to determine their costs accurately in
the interest of better trade conditions.
1t believes that anything that is Of
benefit to q trade or industry Is of bene-
ut TO the public. and 1t Is also Of tho
opinion that the nearer cost system ap-
pruach uniformity the more satisfactory
will be the results. Our efforts are d.
rccted to assisting and helping the mer-
chants and manufacturers Of the coun-
try TO improve their accounting and
business practices, and in general 10
helping them to overcome an inherited
Indifference to efficient business meth

sending to merchants and manufacture
crS at the present tine booklet on bet
ter business methods. which It hopes
will be helpful to them.

When It's getting close to Christmas
And the gifts have all been bought,
There are moments when the gladneSs
Is displaced by pensive Thought
IT'S the thought Of little children,
Once the chubby girls and boys,
Who were charmed beyond all measure
BY the picture books and toys.
There arc tender recollections
OF those days Of long ago,
When the simple things Of childhood
Made the little faces glow.
Then the little eyes were sparkling
In the fullness Of delight,
For each trinket, howe'er humble
Was to them a woIdrous sight.
Everything was then a marvel.
From tho monkey on Il stick
To the doll with fiaXen ringletS
And the eyes with closing trick.
There were Noahs arks and soldiers,
Jumping Jacks and building blocks,
Popguns. drums and Tiny trumPets
And the "devil-in-a-box.'
There was pleasure In the purchase
OF such trinkets long ago.
When the boys and girls were children
Tots Of three and five or so.
But they've grown 10 age maturer.
Sturdy lads and buNom girls,
And they care no more for plaYthtnEs
Or the dolls with ftaxen curls.
There remains the love parcn tai
As In days long since gone by.
But the sight of dolls and soldiers
Is the signal, Tor Il sigh.
There are memories enduring
OF the children and their toys.
But the pleasure Of such giving
Is among the vanished joys.

WILSON'S PEACE PLEA

Anything out Of the casual Will
startle financial centers these days.
The diplomatic world Is in such
nervous state that an extra sneeze OF
any Of the ambassadors will make all
jump. President Wilson's note to the
belllgerents and the neutrals suggest
ing that peace would be very good
thing just now has been dramatically
described as "a bolt out Of the blue"
The note really Is of no special i'm
port, as it conveys nothing but what
the belligerents already know. that
the United States is tired Of having
It's dog kicked round.
However II the action Of President
Wilson, concededly unexpected, Will
conspire in any way to bring the bel
ligerents together in more concilia-
tory spirit than they now hold to,
there can be no doubt that much pro-
gress will have been made towards
cessation Of hostilities and the dawn
of permanent peace. Let US hope so.
We are told that the Presidents
main purpose in dispatching his plea
for peace was to put the United
States in position to prevent
it from becoming involved in war.
That fear can readily be understood,
but it Is a situation that the Presi-
dent is more or less to blame for. II
"strict accountability" had been CIV
en- as deep q meaning as it was SON.
orous in sound perhaps there would
have been less likelihood Of the con-
slant progression of those acts whose
cumulative aftronts have become
constant proyocation to the Ameri-
can spirit.
AS the aspiring President Of HUI
mainly Mr.. Wilson has performed an
act consistent with his professions.
AS the President of the United States
he his projected proposition OF
doubtful wisdom at this delicate per-
iod of European developments.

CONSERVING OUR HEALTH

The public health department OF
the government has given a pretty
good account Of itself in It's annual re-
port. It Is q branch Of the govern
ment that works with much less noise
than others we could name and con-
sequently is far greater In achieve
ment. Two features which distinctly
interest this section are dilated upon
In the report of the department. The
health OF Industrial workers has been
safeguarded to greater extent than
at any time in the past. Studies have
been made Of the occupational hazards
of steel workers in many Of the lead.
ing industrial establishments Of the
country and insanitary and harmful
conditions corrected.
What the national health officials
regard as the largest and most i'm.
portant single undertaking Of this
nature yet inaugurated, the investi'
cation of the pollution Of the Ohio
river, is still in progress. 1t is to be
regretted that they have nothing more
definite to submit than progress"
Enough, however, is known to demon.
strate that federal legislation to pre-.
vent the contamination OF water
sources Is a necessity. Nothing Is
more important to Wheeling and the
whole upper Ohio valley.
Our troops on the border were in
great danger OF contracting infectious
diseases that are raging in stricken
Mexico. The health department
seems to have done good work in this
threatened zone, energetic efforts
having been made to prevent the in.
PRODUCTION OF all communicable dis.
eases. Typhus fever has been com
bated at all points on the Mexican
border and disinfection plants estab-
lished where the clothing and persons
Of all incoming aliens have been disin-
fected. At one station alone, Ell Paso,
Texas, $4,000 persons were inspected
and treated in such a manner as to
insure their freedom from this highly
fatal infection. The health Of ma
ton is as important as It's prosperity.
