Cats Fond Of Needles.

Cats seem to have habit of swal-
lowing needles. When cat is brought
to a veterinary hospital suffering with
a cough, the doctor always looks for a
needle. In one instance Doctor Chlds
of New York operated on cat to re-
move what he thought was an Ordi-
nary needle. He found hatpin nine
inches long. But the cats life was

STRONG INVITES
NOTICE TO ROADS

Brig.-Gen. Frederick S. Strong. com
handing the Hawaiian department
has filed a report in Washington call
ing notice to the bad condition OF
roads at Schofield Barracks, and in
viting attention to the fact that an
excellent territorial road leads from
Honolulu to the entrance of the post
Gen. Strong reports that the only
permanent roads and walks are those
around the new quarters of the lst
Infantry and Attn Cavalry. Although
two squadrons of the 4th Cavalry
have been occupying their new bar
racks for the better part Of two years
it was only lately that work has been
begun on roa:Is and walks there.

commander this winter was unable

The report concludes by saying that

az the meeting on Friday at LaAiakea
active members of the club Nefged
themselves to work for the besd liter

In his Introductory talk Jack Belser
said that the club should be larger
and campaign should be made al

only. He predicted a bright future
for the club in 1917, and hoped that
the Honolulu Automobile Club would
lead the fight FOR better road cOndi-

nominated for the office of president

AMERICAN TARS
Twice AS MANY
[By Associated PreSSl

NEW YORK.-There are approxi
mately two and one half times as
many American sailors now shipping
for foreign ports than at any time
previous to the war, according to DIR
George 8. Webster, secretary Of the
American Seamen's Friend Society.
He attributes this increase partly to
the increased wages being given sea
men and partly to the improved con-
ditions under which they are working
DR.. Webster says: The past three
years have marked an almost unbelieV'
able increase in the number of Amer
leans who are shipping as sailors. At
our sailors home on the North river
waterfront the men we had previously
cared for were almost entirely Brit
ish, Swedish and German: II an
American-born sailor should have
mingled in with this company he
would have been more or less con-
spicuous. Today we frequently lodge
American sailors and they are practi-
caIly all men who had not seen SER
vice in the merchant marine prior to
the outbreak Of the war. 1t is a very
fair estimate to say that fully two
and one half times as many Americans
are now seafaring men as prior to
the war. We can no longer say that
the American is a 'land-lubber'
We venture to predict at the Amer
lean Seamens Friend Society that the
pro portion of the American-OoTn sail
ors to those of other nationalities will
immensely increase after the war. In
case there is a slight lapse in indus
trial activity, the seafaring life will
doubtless be OF attraction to many
who nave not heretofore considered

BILL AND HARRY,

TRIP OF SORROW


Bin Bibee and Harry Parker, both
of the Auto Service & Supply Com

decided to see the island of Oahu on
motorcycles. Bibee boarded De
Luxe and Parker a Harley Davidson,
and their tales of adventure were
very interesting.
Both being amateurs, they were Just
getting accustomed to their machines
when they hit the bad roads on the
other side Of the island. Through
mud and sand and rocks they made
the best of the rough travelling and
arrived at Waimea by lunch time.
Parker stated he felt like he had just
stepped off the Great Northern after
a trip from San Francisco Everything
went we'll until reaching Wailakalaua
gulch. when Bibee's De Luxe began
to make little too much speed up the
grade and tried to disfigure the fence
on the side OF the road This caused
quite a delay while the motorcycle,
Bibee and his clothes were repaired,
but they succeeded in getting into Ho
nolulu before bedtime.
They report the roads very good
for most Of the way, but the bad spots
take all the JOY cut of motorcyciing..
