NEW YORK Aug 4-Since the best
days OF the Chicago Cubs, the famous
old Pirates and the Tigers who won an
American league championship. the
West hasn't held such a prominent place
in baseball as it now is hanging to.
The pep and dash Of the Cardinals
and Reds and the possibilities in the
appointment OF Fred Mitchell as man
ager Of the Cubs are thrilling the west
erners.
Indications are now that, even II they
don't attain the top Of the peak this
year. the Reds and Cardinals are going
to be hard to head next year.
If the Reds or Cardinals should win
a pennant-Oh Boy, What a life il
would be in St. Louis or Cincinnati.
Chicago won its last National league
pennant in 1910. and Detroit was the
last western club to represent the
American league in a worlds series
struggle. It has been seven years since
the west horned into the fall baseball
classic.
In case Chicago wins the American
league pennant this year. as is being
variously predicted, and in case the
Giants live up to their supporters
claims It will be the first time that
teams from the nations two largest
cities have done conflict on the diamond
in q worlds series.
With the natural rivalry existing be-
tween the huge population centers. a
worlds series scattered between the
shores Of Lake Michigan should be a
humdinger, with all the trimmings.

THE LAST BAND APPEAL

Editor Star-Bulletin.
Strive may try Robert H. Baker
and if cannot then reinstate kalani
Peters back again"
These are some of the sentences
spoken by some and were even said to
me personally, which have well sur
veyed the living soul within those SEN
fences. Nay! There is no live body
within those sentences, but, a soulless
body, that had died ages ago, centur.
les of years ago.
To say that to try the man who is
known to know nothing and incompe-
tent in the great things pertaining to
this office of band, Is to open the gate
wide for all incompetent men to be-
come head leaders for all the offices
of our county government.
And as this office is not like other
offices. Nay The man who leads this
office, must not be man that some
one else has to write and compose his
musics. No! But his ownself as Kala.
nj Peters is, and when the ladies and
gentlemen with their respective mu-
sizes are before Robert H. Baker, what
shall he say to them? Will he not tell
the untruth to these people that he
can, and yet he cannot, hiding the
truth, that Captain H. Berger will
write and arrange those musics that
were brought to him?
And as this Robert H. Baker is a
clergyman for the 'Hoomana Naauao"
church, founded by John Kekipi, how
is ii that his conscience is so daring
as to want to take the leadership OF
this great office, well knowing of his
ownself that he is not enough in writ,
ing music and composing music, and
yet, the conscience of the clergyman
dares to take the leadership for this
office, is this not proud manner Of
the lowest kind of politics?
And as your motto. HonorableS
Mott-Smith and C. H. Bellina, is the
Proper Man" competent, knowledge,
skill in handling certain offices of the
county, by his ownself. as Kalani Pet.
ers is and not like the awkward Rob.
ert H. Baker, depending his skill on
Captain ii. Berger, this is a shameful
kind of politics, and of the very lowest
foolishness.
And as both of you honorables be-
long to the Republican political party.
and is our same party with Kalani
Peters, and R. H. Baker is a Democrat.
the queerest thing is that the one who
never voted for you is the one you up:
held, and Kalani Peters, who voted for
you is the one you trampled under
your feet.
See to this, you both candidates for
supervisors whom have worked hard
for, for the honor of the political party
by this office Of the band, do humbly
ask your highness. to change the vote

part; never mind with trying to show
your little foolishness.

WHAT OAHU CHILDREN DID.

The statement is credited to the executive officer
of the food commission that Oahu will have to hurry
up to overtake the children of the other islands in
their school and home garden activity.
1t is good business to hurry up the children on
project of this character but in the hurry it would
not be fair to forget the record of what the Oahu
Ichildren have done. The following letter published
in the Hawaii Educational Review tells the story
of what has been done, and the comment is made
by the Review editor that "it would be interesting
to make similar comparisons on all the islands and
to find the percentage of natOnalites for all
schools"

they were raised making a saving to these homes

About one-third (326P) of all the children in
the schools have taken active part in the garden
