Last night at Palama. before = good

luwela their first defeat Of the present
season BY the score Of IL to 5.
The game was interesting more
from the standpoint OF whether the
.catchers there were many changes
we're going to hold the third strikes
or whether the batter would be safe at
first after striking out when the re-
ceiyer missed the last one
Twenty-Five Paiamas famed. Of
which nine were safe when the third
strike got away from the catcher and
four Of the % Kauluwelas were safe
at first after striking out or rather
missing the third strike,
At the beginning Of the fifth the
score was 2 to in favor, Of the Kau-
luwelas when Chan. the first up for
Palama, was safe ct first when Luke
missed his third strike. Lum and
Spencer. the next two up. struck out
and Luke squeezed the last one hard.

came home when Luke missed Tins
third strike, stole second and came
home on Johnson's single. Kai then
missed three, but was safe at first.
and Akana was safe on Nicholas error
at short. Chan, the next batter, on
his second time up In this inning,
struck out for the second time, bat
strange to say the catcher held II and
he was out.
Palama outclassed Kaulnweia in
fielding, playing fast, snappy bah all
the time, and the only nlisqHe charged
against them was when H. Chan FUN
bled Kazumiis hard grounder, who
was the first man up in the seventh.
Bell, the next batter up. was safe at
first and both runners advanced q
base when Luke grounded out to first.
With second and third occupied Spen-
Ger frightened up and dashed the Kan
.ltiwelas hopes by striking out Haru
and Keiani. s
Paiama made nine hits and the Kau-
luwelas IL. Palania had two earned
runs and KaulGwela five. -Four Pala-
ma runners scored on passed balls and
one KauluWela man. S
Kaznnni and Nicholas Of Kauluwela
led both teams At bat, each getting

activities win begin at Punahou just
as soon as the students reassemble
next Monday for the winter term. The
first sports on the calendar Will be

track work must be taken up very
soon. also.
In the Punahou Preparatory school

petns by the donation OF q cup for

cup, the gift Of an old tennis player
and a close friend Of PunRhou. who

ment with this prep novice tonrna-
ment Is successful he VIII donate q
larger and more ambitious cup, to be
competed for for period OF years
and to be publicly displayed as q
trophy at Punahou.
There is no doubt that this dub
tournament will be successful Every
day during the vacation and for some
time previous to the holidays not only
the Punahou courts but many courts
about town as we'll were crowded
with little McLoughlins and Johnsons,
learning the strokes and perfecting
safe shots. This cup has done much
to turn the interest OF the boys to-
ward tennis and it is not improbable
that many q good tennis player may
later trace his career back to its or
igin In these Punahou matches. Pu-
nah0u regards the minor sports as Of
greater physical value to the boys
than are the major and more intense
sports.
At meeting of the prep tennis en-

too experienced and proficient to com.

ACROSS THE SEAS.
ACT AND SERVE TOGETHER
Make Farms, Mines, Factories Yield

Washington.-In a personal appeal
addressed Sunday night to his fellow
countrymen President Wilson calls
upon every American citizen-man,
woman and child-to join together to
make the nation unit for the preser-
walton of its ideals and for triumph of
democracy in the world war.
1.-THE supreme test of the nation has
come says the address. 1--WE must
all speak, act and serve together"
Putting the navy on a war footing
and raising a great army are the sim
plest parts of the great task ahead,
the president declares, and he urges
all the people, with particular empha-
sis on his words to the farmers, to con-
centrate their energies, practice econ
omy, prove unselfishness and demon
strate efficiency.

OVER 1894 ASSOCIATIONS
ARE AFTER FARM LOANS
Farmers of Twelfth District Ask Min
mum IntnaI Credit of 100000
-Four Northwestern States.

National farm loan associations are
being formed in 1895 communities of
the four northwestern states for which
Spokane is the headquarters. In
some of them the organization work
is already under way, while from
others applications for blanks for or
ganization have been received.
In number of cases more than one
association is being formed in the
same community, so that 395 does
not represent the total.
AS the law requires that an asso-
citation ask a $4,000 Oloan as a mini
muf, the applications represent a min
imum of s7.9OO,OOO, which will be
loaned in this district as quickly as
organization of the associations is
completed, or the funds available.
The communities include Washing
ton, Oregon, Idaho and Montana.

PRESIDENT PLANS PEACE
AFTER WAR is OVER
Prepares Program to Present at Con-
ference With British and French
Desires to Aid Russia.

hington.-President Wilson has
personally began the formulation of a
definite program for the great war
conferences to begin here soon with
official representatives of Great Brit
ain and France. The subjects to be
discussed are to extend further than
material cooperation between the Uni
ted States and the entente allies.
The president believes the greatest
good which can come from the world
war is an agreement under which con-
flicts can be avoided in the future and
guarantees of the right of self-gov-
eminent to every nation, large or
small, and this ideal is certain to find
its way into the conferences. In well
coming the foreign delegations, headed
by Arthur ]. Balfour, foreign minister
of Great Britain, and Rene Viviani,
minister of justice of France, the pres
ident is expected to point to the aspi-
rations of the United States.
The character of the foreign dele
cations has generally been taken as an
indication that they will be empow-
cred to discuss broad questions of pol
icy. Possible means of assisting Rus
STA and thus building up the newest
democratic government in the world
are receiving the most earnest consid-
Grafton of the administration.
Serious attention is being given to
a suggestion that a commission from
the United States be sent to Petro-
grad.
