MCMILLAN NOTES.
(By William Hickman.)

Once again, the roof of Mcmillan
was shaken The first outburst of
Mcmillan Pep came last Wednesday
when a first real mass meeting of the
year was called The Upperclass-
men experienced thrill such as
they have never had since the days
of "Billy Van" or of Johnnie Kist-
Ter, while the underclassmen were
awe-stricken at something they had
never dreamed of Pep-inspiring,
hair-raising, heart-thrilling speeches
were made by Prin. Strunk, peggy"
Moore. Loyal Wonneman and Frank
Houston. The meeting was called to
get subscribers to the Mcmillan"
and, to be sure, they sure got 'em.
Yell Leader, r. Moore, chose Loyal
Wonneman to assist him, after
which many of the pep" yells and
songs were given. The first issue of
the Mcmillan will make its appear
ance within a Short time. Frank
Houston, the Mcmillan correspond
ent to the "Intelligencer" heads the
staff as Managing Editor. Hous-
ton is a good newspaper man, and
the Mcmillan is sure to be a success.
At an assembly of all of the boys
last Friday plans for the fall track
work were discussed by Coach
Ray E. Miller. 1t was decided to
have an inter-class meet within
about three weeks. Glass captains,
and a school captain were chosen
Richard Mckinney was elected Jun
ior captain and school captain AL
vim Beamer is Senior captain. Ian
don Smith, Sophomore captain, and
H. Reed, Freshman captain. This
year the work will be carried on at
Hardin Park. Plans for cinder
track around thePark are being dis
cussed by the Chamber of Commerce,
but no plans completed yet. 1t is
hoped Mcmillan will have a real
track of all her own by next spring.

REPORTED SCANT
Especial ss.r-Bullstin correspondence


WAILUKU, Eaui, June 6.-The Kula
bean crop will not be more than halt
as large as was expected on account
Of unfavorable weather. This is the
report of George Copp, who was in
Waikiki this week on business. Scar
city of seed prevents a replanting at
the present time, though 1t is prob
able that a fall crop much larger than
usual will be put In.
From the TACT that the acreage in
beans Is greater than usual, and be-
cause of the high price which the Kula
bean is likely to command this yeaE,
it is probable that the poor crop will
bring in more than the usual amount
Of money to the district
The white potato crop is also almost
failure, owing to the blight, Mr..
Copp says, but corn is looking fine.
However, the paintings of this last
staple are rot heavy, farmers having
concentrated their efforts on beans

is the amount of business which the

transacted during the calendar year
of 1915, according to the manual OF
Hawaiian Securities which is being Is

The statistical columns Of the

There are also the unlisted securities
and the total sale OF shares repre-
scented on the yellow sheet will
probably bring the years business to

A comparison of former years also
shows that 1915 was far ahead Of the
