CONTROL OF SALOON LOCATIONS

Editor Honolulu StarsBulletin.
Sir: While It may hardly be ex.
pected that the license commissioners
will take the responsibility OF abol.
ishing the liquor traffic in Honolulu
by the negative method Of refusing
licenses, yet there is one means
whereby they could and should miti.
gate the nuisances attaching to the
saloon system This is to make re,
strictions az to locations Of saloons,
as President Dole did under the re,
public when he decreed that the grant
ing of licenses in the principal re,
tail trade section should cease. He
thus drove the last saloon off lower
Fort street. 80 -
When the projected widening OF
Hotel street at Fort is accomplished,
saloons ought to be tabued on that
thoroughfare as far from Fort street
as Maunakea, If not throughout its
whole length. st least the theater
section-taking in the Empire, Ha.
wall and Bijoe should be protected
from saloon contact
GOOD ORDER.

 Mo- men designers just keep on ere ating these new and unlovely fashions for women in order, it seems, to pre- vent them from being the angelic be- ings they were intended to be.
 T want to be an angel and with the angels stand" is one of the first songs a. girl learns, and she really sings it with the feeling that she'd like to be heavenly creature of heavenly love- liness, but she soon learns that she is pinned to earth by the struggle to over come the ugliness of her men-designed clothes.
 Perhaps-who knows-this world war now waging will change the entire man. ner of things. Who knows but that these men-designers may be taken all of them (some have already gone) to "the front"-their designers pencil snatched from their unfeeling hands, and a bayonet placed in it's stead?
 Then, women will sit in the seats of the mighty fashion creators and design fashions for women such as have never before been seen, clothed in which she will at last reach the pinnacle of her desire and with the angels stand"-the place where she rightfully belongs.

 Way back in the early days of the year 1907 there occurred in book which was popular at that time, called "Cupids Whirilgig,' these lines:
 Men were made when nature was but an apprentice; but woman when she was a skillful mistress of her art"
 And later on Robert Burns, probably borrowing the ideas from this ancient source, says of women:
 "Auld Nature swears the lovely dears
 Her noblest work she classes, O:
 Her prentice hand she tried on man
 And then she made the lasses, O!
 The more you see of women adapting themselves to new and impossible styles of clothes designed for them by men, the more convinced you are of their trium- phant femininity.

NO EXTENSION OF
 Y-PRODUCT PLANT
No Appropriation Has Been Made by Tennessee Com
 pany for This Work

Lack of complete information was responsible for the publication yester- day of report that the by-product plant at Fairfield was to be doubled and that work was to start within the next 30 days
 No appropriation for the reported extension of the Fairfield plant has been made. nor Is it proposed to de- vote any of the recently announced $11, 100000 appropriation of the Ten nessee company to such purpose.
 Engineers are constantly figuring on how various. plants can be improved and are always looking ahead with d view to being ready to meet any con ditions that may arise. Naturally the Tennessee company hopes at sometime in the future to enlarge it's by-product plant capacity, but there is no imme- : diate prospect of such extension.
 The present batteries of by-product ovens at Fairfield represent an invest ment of about s4500,0O0.
