to send away for our g~lasses-if

with the person who has to mail

he is not to blame for his misfts
he is not, cannot be present

charitable with the mistakes that
occur in his mail order glasses

THE USUAL PROBE.

The biennial investigation of the Boys Industrial
School. Waialee, is about TO be launched. 49,
Each Legislative session since a time when mem.

the industrial school The concrete results of these
Investigations have consisted of reports duly incor-
porated into the house senate journals
in spite Of numerous public Investigations it re-
manned for private inquiry year and half ago to
establish the fact that the school was badly admins
tered and that grave abuses had grown up there.
These abuses exposed in the press led to speedy
change in management, and under new industrial
school commission the WaiaIee institution has made
long strides The Star Bulletin believes that its adj
ministration now is far better than at any other
time within the past five years. tE.>
Superintendent Frederick Anderson has proved
to be good official and has developed recreation
and education at the school without impairing the
discipline. In fact, the discipline appears better
now than under the preceding superintendent
Representative Kelekolio asks the house by reso-
luton for an investigation into report that boys
at the school are whipped with undue severity This
same report was aired in Honolulu few months
