NEW PASTOR breaches
FIRST LOCAL SERMON

Those words of Paul, las much as is
in me, am ready" formed the text
of Rev Albert w. Palmer, new pas
tor of Central Union church, when he
delivered his initial sermon in Homo,
lulu yesterday morning. He took up
at length the sacrifices the people
will have to make during the new
year. referring to wheatless and meat.
less days and contributions to the Red
Cross, the Y. M. C. A. and Y. w. C. A.
and other causes for humanity.
He said, in part:
THE people who are unready are
always complaining and apologizing
They are pepetually indulging in that
worst of vices-self pity. They are al
ways making excuses and finding
weaknesses to bemoan over or to crit
iciZe.
THE people who are ready, on the
other hand, are cheerful, pleasant, Ell
feotive. They drive their work but
do not let their work drive them. They
recognize their limitations but they
rejoice in the measure of opportunity
which is granted them. They play the
glad game with PoIlyanna and always
find something cheerful and construc
tive upon which to focus their atten
ton"

No Reason to DispIace Supt. Vierra

Efficiency in the city government means not only
clearing out incompetents to make wa for cOmEe.
tent men. but retaining competent men who have
made good.
All the weight Of testimony r" far goes to sA""
that in A. X Nierra. superintendent Of parks. lio-
nolulu has Il man who has made good. He should
be retained.
Nirrra is not horticultural expert. not Il skilled
Landscape gardener But he has energy. he has the
faculty for making friends throughout the city for
the general scheme Of park Improvement and he is
willing to take suggestions from competent sources
Nierra's enthusiasm and interest largely lpslon-
Sbe for the success that Supervisor Ben 40llinger
has made with the parks and Fairgrounds commit
tee. and nobody recognizes it more fully than Mr..
Hollinger
The mayors choice. Valentine Holt is an estinl-
able Young man. There would be no criticism at
this time of his alleged lack Of cxccutiv" ability
were it not that he is put forward for public of
fee which is responsible for the spending Of large
sums of money He might make good but at the
best he would be an experiment. and the letter of
the t. :. agricultural station head, J. VI. West gate,
is certainly staggering argument against his APP
pointment
No wishes Valentine Holt i'll. but on the other
hand no one who is familiar with Nrrra'S hard
work and good results could without a protest see
him displaced merely to serve the mayors idea of
political patronage.

unseen Enemies"

Food pledge campaigners on the mainland have
in numerous cases found their work hampered by
unquestionable Germanism In fact, the press all
over the country is now engaged in exposing this
antl-American propaganda. Among the many re-
ports pointing to a deliberate policy by Germans
or their sympathizers of opposition to food conser
walton, the following is fairly typical:
HOUSTON, Tex.-Open hostility the signing of
the federal food pledge cards has been shown vari
parts Of Texas according reports to State Food
Administrator Peden of Houston. The strongest op
position was found in Dewitt Fayette counties
which are strong German communities, and from
communities many cards were received Endorsed re
fused to sign.
On receipt OF these cards Mr.. Peden telegraphed
direct to several school districts advising them
lows:
Numerous cards received from your school district
Endorsed refuse to sign l sending you more
cards. Please present again and send names and
reasons given by all who refuse to sign. In these
war times we must know who the nations enemies
are"
Since the conviction of members of the Farmers
and Laborers' Protective Association at Abilene no
open opposition to the draft law has been made OF
1000 oil field workers on strike, and many other
strikers. none are alleged to be w. w. workers.
Commenting ON the opposition to the food saving
program, the Boston Post under the heading TN
seen Enemies" says
The head Of the housewives league engaged in
the work of domestic conservation food, is quoted
as telling Of the discovery of organized plot to
interfere with its operation Women spies it is al
legged, are acting under the direction of paid agents
of the German government" to dssuade househoders
from putting in practise the economies recommended
Such scheme cannot be very fruitful in results
The invasion of pantries and kitchens by spies
enemy would be resented with emphasis if not with
violence greater and convincing than that shown
intruders upon cantonments.
More consequence Is to be attributed to Mr. Hoovers
warning against sneaking attempts to destroy food
storage warehouses. Some casualties in this
connection go to confirm suspicion.
We must not fall into the error of condemning al
| enemies all women who refuse to sign the pledg'
cards. Some Of them are contrary" to use a we'll
understood colloquialism Some have not under
stood the object of the campaign and resent any in
reference with their domestic affairs. TO sucI
women it must be made apparent that the food say
ing campaign is national movement of serious i'm
port; that Americans are already, in France gvin,
their lives as part of this same patriotic movement
and that the time has come when every American
woman must stand ready to declare herself open
~, fully, definitely and Effectively. President viii
son and Herbert Hoover have said that the patriotic
American woman can exhibit her patriotism NJ
more effectively than by enlisting in the food cam

WOULD PUT FIRE
MARSHAL IN HILO
Especial st.r-Bp,lot,n oon sspoDAence.

HILO, Dec. AT meeting that
was held in Hilo yesterday morning
and at which were present Charles j..
Mccarthy, the territorial treasurer; H.
V. Patten, H. A. Truslow, E. N. Mich.
OILS, C. Castendyke, G. H. Wears, +.
N. Deyo and D. S. Bowman, the mat

Treasurer Mccarthy, who is, by act
of the legislature, also fire marshal for
the whole territory and who has for
his ex-officio deputies all the sheriffs
and deputy sheriffs of the territory, ex-
planned the situation and said that he
wanted to appoint a full deputy fire
marshal for Hilo. There is no pay at
tached to the position, the treasurer ex-
planned, but, all the same, he said that
he thought he could secure deputy
with full power to control conditions.
In addition to the sheriffs and the dep.
uty sheriffs, said Mr.. Mccarthy, the
fire chiefs of the towns of the tarri-
tory are also ef-officio deputy fire
marshals.
The board of trade committee on
fire protection had taken up the mat.

MISS LOS ANGELES.
STRAIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER

Eva Plantation, Dec. =, 1871.
Mr.. Riley Allen, Editor Honolulu Star
Bulletin.
Nv Dear Mr.. Allen: The letter OF
Mr. J. +. c. Hasens, appearing IN to-
days issue OF the Advertiser, in an
sWer to the paid advertisement, signed
by one who seems to be afraid to come
out in the open, is straight from the
shoulder, honest-to-God Americanism.
Let US have more Of 1t. Mr.. HaSens
did not refuse TO have anything TO say
did not wait TO consult his attorney
or did not answer Dixie Doolittle' in
a manner unhecoming an American
gentleman. and as long as Mr., Hagens
stands on his past record and does not
commit an act of treason or sedition
against our government, | believe he
should be considered as a loyal Amer
lean citizen and should not be cen
sured or attacked by one who is not
game to come out in the open and give
his or her name.
This is not Americanism-at least is
not the kind Of Americanism that
have been taught by my father, who
still carries a bullet in his shoulder
from Gettysburg, or by my mother,
who for over two years nursed wound
ed and starved parole prisoners Of
war back to strength for the Union
at Camp Parole, Baltimore, Md.
Pro-Germanism Is an insidious d.
sease and must be fought to the death.
but let us, as Americans, come out in
the open and fight it out like men, as
our forefathers did in 81. aye, in 1912
and in 1916. Sincerely yours,

MAN0A CLIFFS TRAIL
is BADLY OVERGR0WN

Parties who were in the mountains
yesterday on hiking expeditions re-
port that from the overgrown condi-
ton of most of the trails there seems
to have been little travel over them
recently. The Manoa cliffs trail is said
to be especially overgrown and, from
appearances, few parties have travel
ed over It in months Owing to the
prevailing Kona weather which evil
IDENTIFY does not carry heavy rains up
into the mountains to any great dis,
lance the trails over Pauoa flats and
at the head of Manoa valley are much
more dry than they usually are in
