The Sunday school of the Methodist

The Horn Rapids Irrigation COM
pany had number of land seekers
accompanied by Seattle statesmen on
the ground couple Of days last week.
The buyers were very favorably i'm
pressed with the project and will UNI
doubtedly take up land in the spring.
Prospects have never been so favor
able for the future of this district as
at this time. Eastern capital is loos-
ening up and it is the intention Of the
company to make strong play with
the idea of interesting eastern capital
in the Richland district. Il
The Fruitvale Five Hundred club
will meet with Mr.. and Mrs. c. A.
Blackman Saturday evening, Jan. 6.
If the coyotes are as. numerous in
the hills around Richland as has been
stated, they are a pretty wise bunch
and certainly take pains to keep un-
der cover when a drive is planned. The
drive Sunday was another fizzle as
far as killing any of the pests is con-
cerned as not single one was bagged
altho a large crowd of hunters braved
the cold and snow to try their luck.
Delegations from Prosser, Kennewick
and other towns were in attendance
but no one succeeded in getting shot
at a coyote. Justice was done to the
lunch served by Frank Flinchpaugh at
his ranch home north of town and the
"hot dogs" sure did lot to make up
to the sportsmen for lack of game.
If the year 1917 proves as prosper
Gus one for the Richland farmers as
did 1916 this district will have become
one of the best irrigation projects in
the state. Last year good profit
was made on practically every crop
raised and there is a movement on
foot among some Of the most promi-
nent farmers to specialize more this
year. That is, confine themselves to
crops which are best adapted to the
district and on which the best returns
can be obtained. It is an established
fact that the Richland district is at
least two weeks earlier than other
sections of the Northwest and this
early growing season makes the farm
ers sure of premium price for his
products which are on the market in
advance of all other sections. The
idea is to confine the output of the
Richland Valley principally to early
strawberries, early potatoes, aspara-
gus, tomatoes with the addition of the
corn and alfalfa. The Kennewick-
Richland Marketing Union could
handle all these early products advan-
tageously and with good profit to the
grower and it certainly would seem a
good idea to give the plan a chance
for one year and see how it will work
out. The success made by the Union
last year far exceeded the hopes of
it's strongest supporters and the out
look is as bright for the coming sea-
son so everyone interested should get
busy and plant early crops so that the
Union may have plenty to ship when
they secure market and profitable
price.

COMFORT BAGS FOR
THE KHAKI BOYS

The luau shcd," at the back of
the church, was the scene of great
activity all day Saturday There
were ladies, and lunch, and sewing
machines, and dry goods, and chat
ter and good cheer. and through it
all that effective industry that turn
ed out, in the late afternoon POO
comfort bags for the soldiers.
These bags are about 12X14, and
contain the following useful articles:
Bull Durham tobacco, cigarette pa
per, writing paper, envelopes, memo
book, playing cards, soap and wash
rag, safety-pins, pencil, handkcr-
chief, tooth brush and paste, comb,
buttons, knife, shoe laces and ban
DANA.
During the day, while the rest
worked, one of the ladies read most
interesting extracts from letters from
Paris, describing the needs of the
wounded, and the efforts that are
being made to alleviate the same.
These, bags, we understand, are
to be sent to France to be distribut-
ed among the boys there. 1t is such
a very attractive bunch of things
that we are almost minded to start
for France stfaightway, that we may
get one of them ourselves.

n. G. OFFICERS
HOLD MEETING

In answer to q call by Colonel
Gaylord p. Wilcox, the officers of
the 4th. Reg n. G.. H. assembled
at the armory at Lihuc, at 2:30 o.
clock Sunday afternoon for the pur-
pose of receiving instructions on
mobilization. Practically every Off
Ger of the regiment was present.
After calling the assemblage to OIL
der Col. Wilcox explained the pur-
pose of the meeting, stating that as
the Guard would in all probability
be called into service in the very near
future, it was necessary, ia order TO
cause as little delay and confusion
as possible, for every officer to know
Just what was to be done when the
order came.
Captain Gustav Gonser, Inspector
Instructor taking extracts from Spe-
cial Regulations No. 50, Mobiliza-
ton of the National Guard, gave a
comprehensive lecture on mobiliza-
ton, explaining in detail the differ
ent steps to be taken by each unit
of the regiment.
After the lecture Captain Gonscr
organized a rcgimental school for
officers to be held each Sunday, at
Eleele Hall, Lihue Armory and
Kealia Armory alternately.

Kapaa Wins Victory

The last game in the lnterscholas-
tic Soccer League was played off at
the new Kapaa playground on Sat
urday. The game was postponed
at the first of the season and this
was the first opportunity that the
teams have had for getting together.
The Kalaheo team, accompanied
by a band Of roOters and several
teachers, reached Kapaa Saturday
morning, and the game started at
once. Caesar Gonsalves, the Koloa
captain, refereed the game.
The Kapaa boys went into the
game with a will and at once put
the Kalaheo team ON the defensive.
There were many times when it
seemed that score was certain.
but Kalaheo always managed to get
the ball away from the goal before
the damage was done.
The first half kept the large crowd
of Kapaa rOOtcrs ON their toes every
minute and they gave unsparingly
VI NOCdl cllCoNl dSNlll'llI' Nv VIM
ming score, however, was not made.
In the second period Kalaheo was
penalzed for holding and the re-
feree awarded a free kick. On this
play Kapaa player received the
kick and drove it through the goal
posts for a score.
The Kapaa followers cheered wild
ly and when time was called with
the Kapaa boys in the lead they
gave the team an ovation.
This game adds two points to the
Kapaa score and takes them out Of
last place in the league. Great credit
is due these boys for their fine show
ing and sportsmanship.
Score: Kapaa l, Kalahco 0.

A Child Investment
In France

A novel appeal has reached this
community in the interest of the
fatherlcss children of France. There
are reported to be $50, 900 such chill
drcn, orphaned by the war, who
are being kept alive by the Govern
ment at cost of ten cents a day.
1t is proposed that kindly people
may feel moved to partially adopt
some Of these children, by cOntri-
buting to their support in their own
homes. The plan is to have them
remain under the care of their
mothers, amid the surroundings and
conditions which they love, but that
these mothers be helped in caring
for them. TO this end it is suggest
ed that generous people adopt these
children for a term of two years, at
a cost of $50 80 per year. a choice
of children will be given as far as
possible, and every effort given to
come into close contact with the
children by corresponding and 9TH
crwisc. Now we will have to get
out our phrase books and grammars
and brush up our French.

And Once Again

A uncommonly pleasant dance
was that given by Mr.. and Mrs
w. n. Stewart for Mr. and Mrs.
Allen c. Wilcox and Col. and Mrs.
G. p. Wilcox at the Lihue Hall on
Saturday evening. The Hall makes
an excellent place for such an affair,
their being plenty Of sea-room for
the dancers as well as comfortable
provision for the onlookers, and
generous ventilation for all concern
ed.
The decorations were at once
commercially simple and striking
ly effective, revealing the artistic
hand of Mrs. w. n. Stewart whose
endowment along this line is we'll
known.
The devotes of the graceful art
found it very hard to tear them
selves away ,and when the musicians
went sleepily away, about mid
night, a few choice spirits stayed on
for few more one last" dances,
which they managed with the help
of the mechanical music of tn @
nickleodeon. Altogether it was a
most successful affair,

THE COST OF WAR
--HOW TO MEET Il

1t is proposed that the cost of
the war, for the first year, will be
met, in part by a bond issue of two
billion dollars, and in part by in
creased taxation, that is estimated
to yield a like amount.
This latter burden is the one
which most nearly affects us. it
will fall substantially in the follow
ing way:
The Income Tax exemption may
be lowered to $500, for unmarried,
and $4,000 for married. Large in
comes will be subjected to a verv
drastic increase for the super tax.
The standard for the normal in
come proposed is so. All incomes
above this will be taxed heavily,
with rapidly increasing burden.
New duties will be imposed on
various classes of imports. Excise
taxes will be imposed on liquor,
tobacco, mineral waters, and other
commodities, including perhaps
sugar though this now seems un-
likely.
Assessments may be made on
motor vehicles, and musical in
struments. taxes levied on passen-
ger and freight fares; stamp taxes
collected on tickets to places of
amusement; and undoubtedly there
will be a substantial increase in the
rates of postage.

The SCAVENIUS RECITAL

The Scavcnius piano recital Fri
day evening at Hoca, the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. +. 4. Knudsen, was
decidedly success, even beyond
the expectations Of those who knew
that it was going to be so. There
were some forty select guests, the
kind of people who know a good
thing and appreciate it when they
get it. They Were enthusiastic list
encrs on this occasion, and were
eager for more, up to the very end
Of the musicians generosity, when
the lateness of the hour comselled
q break up.
Mr.. Scavenius is of Danish par
entage, but of English birth and
speech, combining, we Judge, the
best qualities of both races. He has
been ON the Islands some eighteen
months, and has made a good record
wherever he has gone. He is an
enthusiastic champion OF the Islands
and rates Kauai as the best of the
bunch, as any discerning man must.
He will give a recital at the Lihue
Social Hall Friday evening, at which
he hopes to see most Of the good
people of Kauai lie will vary the
program, as well as add to the in
tercst of it, by giving brief char
acterization of each composer as he
renders his music,

a much needed rest and vacation.
He will bc absent several weeks.

will spend the Summer with his
family at their Lake Tahoe home.
He is looking well.
Mr.. Albert Horner came to Kau-
al for a couple of days last week. He
reports very brisk demand for all
pineapple products, at very gcner-
Gus prices; in fact the coming crop
is already entirely sold out, and
many orders cannot be filled
We h We another apology to
make; the Hanapepe post office
flies flag, and has from the start;
it is one more good example to those
dilatery offices that do not. All We
patriots of Hanapepc and therea-
bouts, steer your trade towards Jose
Comes Of the Hanapcpe Store.
Lieut., Gustav Gonscr, Inspector
instruction of the Regiment n. G..
H., was called to Honolulu last
week for the purpose Of taking an
examination for the grade of cap
tain. He returned last Wednes-
day with the good news that he had
successfully passed the same.
Some days ago an unusual acci-
dent happened at Port Allen. A car
containing the out going mail and
express got away ON the grade and
ran down onto the dock and over
the end of the wharf into the sea.
In due time every thing was fshcd
out, but in a much damaged cOndi-
ton.

as rare as it is beautiful, is the Tulip

Fountain tree because the buds con-
tain considerable water
Mr.. Albert Horncr Sr, is conff
dent that the National Guard, if
modified, will not he taken off the
Island. He thinks that we need
all our men here at home to raise
food products and conduct t h G
necessary affairs of life, and that it
would be folly to render the Situa-
tion more acute, by the removal of
that much needed labor.

Girls Are No Good

4 Lihuc lady of kindly instincts,
having in mind the adoption of a
little dark eyed daughter from
among the $50, 900 French orphans,
betrayed her fancy to her family of
boys, "Aw, Mama, make it a kid!
Girls are no good, they can't play
ball. "
