HONOLULANS GET
JOYFUL ALOHAS
ON return Home

Joy beaming on their faces as they
impatientIy stamped their feet on the
deck and shouted greetings to friends
awaiting them, the group Of promin-
emit young Honolulans who returned
from the mainland on the Matson1a
yesterday morning was the picture OF
the long lost friend returning to
home, sweet home.
Not to be outdone by the water
itself, a party consisting Of Herman,
Ronald, Hilda and Mary Won Holt,
Dixon Mott, and others jumped onto
the Young brothers excursion launch
az $3.50 a. m. and scaled the side
of the boat outside Of the harbor
the minute anyone was allowed on
board. The greetings started out
on the boat and not until the home
corners had landed did the exchange
of greetings and gifts Of flowers stop.
AS Misses Phoebe and Elizabeth
Carter went down the gang plank a
line of girls formed on the dock and
when the Misses Carter finally
reached the land they ran the gaunt'
let of this line, kissed everyone in 1t
and received lefs and greetings sucn
as could only be given in Honolulu.
Glad to get back" and 'tickled 70
death" were no words for the tearfui
vet happy arrival Of Honolulus
young people. Only in the appealing
calls that passed over the edge OF
the boat and the yociferous kisses
which were given on every side was
there q true expression OF this home
coming.
Vernon .Tenney, son of e. d. Ten:
ney. who caused his parents much
worry at the opening Of the war by
leaving college and entering the Pre-
eidio and the officers reserve train
ing camp, was among the returning
passengers. He was forced to leave
the Presidio on account OF minor pny'
steal defects. He was in Harvard be-
fore leaving for the army, and may
return. 49,.

YOU think the other fellows would
like to read.
Two years ago, scouts, in the city
of Washington, D. c., there was
wonderful parade composed OF some
thousands Of Civil war veterans-old
men all; some lfmping, some blind
In one eye, some with only one ARM
but all alert and showing thas Won
derful spirit Of cheerfulness THAI only
men who are brave can show. These
men had once offered their lives to
cause that they believed right to
fight over-some believed in slavery
for the negro, while others believed
in his freedom. And so they fought
It out-way back in the COS. And
the negro became free. Fifty years
later the surviving soldiers walked
along side by side, gray perhaps
with a blue-it's all the same now
while thousands and thousands OF
people cheered from the bleachers.
And the flag-bearers who were proud
est were those whose flags had the
most buIlet-holes!
Now we are facing another crisis
in our history, only this time it's with
another nation instead Of just among
ourselves at home. We like to feel, OF
course, that our own big brother will
never feel the Craze of bullet; but
nevertheless he has to put his name
down on the list of those who may
be called. And he must 60 with
cheer from those who stay behind
not tears.
Now our men are registering, for
the government has proclaimed the
need; and think Of the glory ahead
for those that are bravest, new coun-
tries to see, excitement on every
hand, a chance to show what you're
made of. Honolulu scouts have been
asked to help on this last day to give
of time and cheer. And you know
how, we trust you.
Scouts are to assemble at the Cap
itol grounds at $50 a. m. to receive
full instruction and assignment. Each
scout master will then proceed to the
booth to which he has been assigned.
taking a patrol of six or eight scouts
which shall include scouts familiar
with the languages spoken in the pre-
4cinct in which they are to be located.
1t is expected that automobiles will
be available to carry those who have
some distance to go. Arrangements
will be made so that each scout will
have about four hours duty and two
hours of rest.
The chief duties of the scouts will
be that of directing those who are
registering to the proper places and
of seeing that they maintain orderly
lines.
Twice during the afternoon at a
given time one of the scouts at each
booth will call up the central board
On the phone and report the number
Of registrants up to the time.
Arrangements will be made to give
the scouts luncheon either at the
booths or at the headquarters at the
Capitol grounds and if they are kept
late enough, they may be given their
supper also.
The majority of the scouts will
probably be dismissed about 6 o'clock.

Just Talks With Scouts

our crack japanese troop is to gather
itself together and prepare again to
capture the John Guild drilling cup,
which It won last year.
Another thing about this troop is
that its garden patrol" is doing first
class work.
All scouts will be interested in the
rules governing the contests for Dun
can cup at Waialua, August Is, 1917.
Here they are:
Scout pace. Four boys from each
troop compose one team and run
separately, making time from aver
age. 2. Only one team may be enter
ed from each troop.
Signalling. The wigwag to be
used. 2. -Four boys from each troop
to enter contest. 8. Send and receive
correctly 100 letters at an average OF
16 to the minute.
Judging weights and distances.
Each troop enters one team Of two
boys, who may confer with each
other in deciding their answers. 2.
Four prescribed distances will be
judged and four weights will be
judged.
First aid to the inured-1. Each
troop has team of two entered. 2,
Each team will follow carefully-writ.
ten direction for caring for wounded
scout. First-class test in handbook
to be standard.
Water boiling. Two scouts from
each troop try for time in the pre-.
liminaries. Three matches.
Kim's game. Two boys from
each troop compose judging team,
2. Judging will be that of two trays
Of scouting equipment and camping
necessities. 3. One answer will be
submitted for each troop.
Any one scout may enter the scout
pace and any two other events.
Only scouts under IS who are reg.
istered at local headquarters bS
August may participate.
Troops XIII and XVII have dis
banded for the summer, the former
having only about nine members at
its close, while the latter was OBJ
liged to give up Mr.. O'Brien (who
went to Maui), and their scoutmaster,
Rev. Merrill, who went to the coast.
Mr.. John Ness reports that the new
Troop III now has 20 members, the
scouts being unanimous in their ap-
prevail of the new court of honor for
final examinations for merit badges.
The troop is spending its time on
preliminary work for first-aid.
On a postal card showing a picture
of the New York waterfront, and re-
Gently sent to ex-Commissioner Hay
ward, Scout Robert n. Boyd wrote
that he was seeing things he'd never
seen before. He sent his aloha to
Troop Xxx and his best regards to all.
Since Troop XVIII has decided to
have a stereopticon lecture on Au-
gust 2 Thursday evening", let's all
help them by being present. The af-
fair will take place in the Christian
church on Kewalo street. The troop
desires to show the public, through a
set Of lantern slides, just what the
scouts are doing on the mainland, and
therefore the possibilities for US in
Hawaii. Mr.. Burnham will deliver
the lecture, and naturally many peo-
pie will wish to hear the new COM
missioner.
Since there is such a falling off
in troop activities during the sum-
mer, the Star-Bulletin may attempt
nothing further than news items for
some weeks ahead; but send in your
notes, and let rs have stories Of camp,

The meeting held by the members
Of Troop V was very short. There
were only "a scouts present which was
considered poor attendance. The
boys failed to show up on account Of
working. After the roll was called
to order Mr.. Burnham gave a short
talk on Scouting" which the boys
were very glad to hear. After the
meeting the boys were put through
a fancy drill which our commissioner,
Mr.. Burnham, appreciated very much.

ROTATION LEASES.
National Crop Improvement ssrsIce.l

There is nothing which endangers
America so much today as our very
much abused farm tenant system. We
ought to have something in every
lease which will protect land and pro.
tect the people as well as posterity.
Year to year tenants who scratch a
little and move away, should be COM
PEELED to settle down and landlords
should be be compelled to make a
time rotation lease. 1t is easy to talk
about compelling this and compelling
that, but we mostly are very sloppy
people whose motto is "the easiest
way is the best"
If we let our soil run down, our
whole structure will fall. In order to
obtain larger yield of grain, this soil
must be fed. The colleges and expert
ment stations beyond the Mississippi
river are entirely too timid about
preaching soil conservation. In fact,
all of us are rather prone to tell our
audience what we think they would
rather hear.
