Rainfall In Hawaii.

The rainfall on the island of Hawaii
varies greatly, ranging from the enor-
nous downpour of 353 inches a year
in the upper Walpio valley to 20 inches
a year on the northeast coast between
Hilo and Kohala. The Walpio surface
streams on the island are found along
the northeast coast between Hilo and
Kohala. The only river. according to
the United States geological survey,
is the largest stream on the island,
and has been party developed for irri.
cation. At Kapoho. on the east point
Of the island. warm water flows from
seams in the rocks. These warm
springs" flow into a pool about 100
feet long, 25 feet wide and 20 feet
deep. The pool is entirely surrounded
by rocks and its color varies in shade
from a beautiful blue to violet. Wala-
pele, or Green lake. is q body of fresh
water in the pit Of an old crater near
Kapoho. This lake covers an area of
about five acres and is fed by springs
below the surface. A pumping plant
takes water from this lake for domes-

an unlucky moment, as when he is
dressing for a dinner party and has
scant time in which to do it-all these
are annoyances which sorely try a
mans patience and chafe and vex
many q person more than q serious
misfortune.
Alexander Smith goes 50 far as to
say that II during thirty years all the
annoyances brought on with defalcat-
ing shirt buttons alone could be gath

It would be misery equal to . public

YES OR NO.

Mr.. C. e. e. Usher is the passen-
ger traffic manager of the Canadian
Pacific railway. the longest railroad
in the world. He cousa not help be-
ing loaded with experience, for his
activities extend across the continent
and over two oceans.
The other day l asked him to say
few words before one of my busi-
ness classes. He made the shortest
speech of the year-just sixty words
and every one of them weighed a ton.
He said:
Young ladies are popularity sup
posed to be concerned chiefly with
the words Yes and No. but, judg-
ing by my forty years experience,
you. who will be stenographers. are
chiefly concerned with the word Not.
II it be omitted, and the stenographer
makes one say I am willing when he
really said I am not willing, great
trouble results"
Millions of dollars have been lost
because telegraph operator wired
a stock broker to buy, when the mes
sage read not to buy.
Even more millions of dollars have
been sidetracked because some stenog-
rapher wrote Il WILL" instead Of Il
will not and her employer signed
the letter without reading it-care-
less of him, Of course-with a re-
sultant tremendous loss.
The moral world, as well as the
business world. swings on Yes" and
mo" Il will" and Il will not"
Saying yes" at the right time may
stand for success. and saying mo"
at the wrong time may encourage fail
ure.
Il will do it" may be the phrase
which carries you into prominence.
and 'T will not do it" may save your
money and your reputation.
If you are stenographer, learn the
use OF yes" and mo-" Il will" and
Il will not" and never write them
into a letter, or repeat them. unless
you are sure that you understood
your employer Alright: and then. II
you are certain that you did. but have
suspicion that what he said was not
what he meant, be careful.
The clerks who rise from the ranks
are those who do not follow direc-
tions blindly. They understand the
why. and when they write out what Is
told them, or speak the words which
they have been ordered to deliver.
they have back of them the certainty
that they are following directions. and
the further guaranty, due to their
judgment, that what their employer
said he meant to say.
First Of all be accurate. In taking
shorthand notes, use the utmost care.
In delivering messages, use the ut
most care. In carrying out the most
important orders, in carrying out the
least important orders, use the utmost
care. And with that care. employ
your brains.
Think! II note, II a message, II
an order, seems strange to you. think
It over quietly. II It still seems
strange after you have given 1t
thought, II you can see no reason
for 1t. go to the one who is RESPONSE
BILE for 1t and learn the why. or at
least be assured that you have made
no mistake. No man wants an en-
ployee who does not think, nor does
he want one who will follow orders
blindly. He is not infallible. Some
day he may make a mistake. and he
will then appreciate-perhaps substan-
tially-the clerk who thinks. and
shows that he thinks.
