With a view towards improving the

usefulness to the public, the park

with Z. M. Ehrhorn, superintendent
Of entomology, and David Haughs, for.
est nurseryman, with the commission
OF agriculture and forestry, as an ad.
visory board, visited Kapiolani park
and Kairhuh park yesterday.
Ehrhorn and Haughs, who have of.
fered their services to the city free,
suggested several improvements to
be discussed later at meeting of the
committee. One of the principal
things suggested for Kapiolani park
was the planting of various kinds of
towering plants and bushes, such as
the hibiscus, along the sides of the
paths and roads. 49,.
At Kaimuki the plan of the park
committee to plant the park to grass
and extend the rustic wall entirely
around It was approved When this
work is completed a plan for the set

It is felt by the committee that

able to give valuable advice and their

She smiled, mo matter where the

Sweetheart" he said, when many a
mile had gone,
And the calm radiance of the win.
Above old Tantalus shining;
The path was rough in spots, but
smooth withal,
"And happiness to us ever did befall,
Beyond our hearts divining."
"And yet, from ill, It's said, comes
sometimes good,
$50 have found as We together stood
Through storms and sunny weather"
She smiled, What matter now the
path we've trod,
THAT led us here and there abroad,
THAT we have walked together"

innocent bystander. What are other
peoples rights compared TO Bobby
wanting to eat his banana right then
and there? Nothing to her.
The selfishness of mothers makes
a visit rom a woman with children
more devastating than a plague of
the seven years locusts. You have
antique mahogany that is the apple
Of your eye. Mother never lifts her
hand to stay little Bobby when he
takes a pin and scratches his name
upon the polished top of your most
cherished table. Instead, mother callE
your attention to what a good hand
he is going to write. II Bobby wants
to make wagon wheels out of your
grand opera monograph records,
mother encourages him to develop
his inventive faculty that way, ami
il little Mary desires to play dolls
with your Tanagra statuettes, mothe,
calmly hands them down to her.
And If you object to having your
property destroyed by a lot Of little
vandals, mother thinks you are a sell
fish old crank not to be willing to
sacrifice your possessions for the
amusement Of her darlings. She can't
rise to the point Of view of your hav'
ing a right to your own things IL her
children want them.
And 1t is amusing, and also tragic,
to note how this mother selfishness
distorts a woman's sense Of justice
when she comes to deal with one Of
the most important problems in her
life-that of her relationship with the
men and women her daughters and
sons marry. Mother holds two radi
cally different codes as to the duties
Of husbands and wives as they affect
her own offspring.
She believes that it is the duty of
her daughters husband to toll day and
night to supply her Mamie with all
the extrayagances she Graves, and to
generally make himself a door mat
before her. She thinks that 1t is a
terrible imposition for Mamie's hus-
band to expect Mamie to do her own
or even keep house unless
she feels so inclined, or to practise
any thrift or economy, or do anything
that interferes with her pleasure. She
thinks the city is too hot for Mamie
in the summer and too cold in the
winter and that the Maine coast or
Palm Beach Is her betting habitat In
Indictment weather. .~..
But mother thinks the city pleas
ant at all seasons for Johns wife.
Johns wife should economic by do
ing her own cooking and sewing and
baby tending, and why on earth
should she consider that she's got a
right to spend his money by gadding
around instead Of laying at home
and making her husband comfortable
Is something Johns mother win

Of Harold Rice Of Maui, who has inn
ported 3 hundred bags Of selected
seed potatoes from Los Angeles and
desires the farmers on the Valley Isle
to use them.
The commission win purchase the
seed potatoes from Rico, and its agent
on Maui win distribute them among
the growers in the Kula and Makao
districts, selling them TO the farmers
AZ cost. The buyers will not be re-
uuifed to pay for them in cash, how
ever. but win be required to pay for
them BY returning to the county
agent an equal amount Of potatoes
from the first crop they grow.
Eyeryone who accepts the imported
seed will be required to give his crop

manner directed BY the commissions
agent. This Is to guarantee the best
possible returns, and to show all the
growers what can be accomplished by
correct cultural methods.

tory be equipped with bulletin board
for the posting Of official information
and notices sent out by the territorial
food commission, is the suggestion
which has been made to the commits

SELFISH MOTHER LOVE

she doesn't hesitate about doing 1t,

, The woman who II trying 70 i'm
prove her personal appearance, to
make herself more attractive to
others, and to make life happier
for her own self, should make this
rule Of beauty sleep one Of the first
to follow. Only women already
too fat, or gaining flesh too rapid
ly, should cut down on their hours
OF rest.
You should-unless as said,
you are too fat-not only sleep the
required eight hours, but try to
sleep them as beautifully as pos
sible. To explain:
Sleep on the back or the right
side-this keeps undue pressure
from the heart. If you are troubled
with indigestion, lying fat on the
stomach viii relieve It, but the
habit Of sleeping this way is bad,

never, never be able to understand.
The worst phase of mother selfish
ness. however, shows itself in the ab-
solute heartlessness women exhibit
towards those whom their children
marry. A woman will shut her lips
upon the secret Of her child's infirm-
ity that absolutely units him, or her,
for marriage, and let the wedding go
on, although she knows that the mar
rage will wreck the life of the unfor-
tunate and innocent man or girl who
is getting her defective daughter or
son.
Murder is a small crime compared
to this, yet women who esteem them
selves good Christian woman, and who
are examples in the community, com.
NIT this inhuman cruelty without
even a pang of remorse.
Not long ago, just such a case fell
under my observation. A beautiful
and noble young girl, the darling OF
her own parents, was invited to make
a visit in the home of a woman who
was a leader in the church and fore
most in all good works and philan.
thropy in her own. The woman's son,
an utterly worthless, drunken, i'm
moral loafer, with a past as black as
sin could make it, fell in love with
this pure young girl.
The mother urged on the suit in
every possible way, and with such
good result that the unsophisticated
girl married the moral leper. Not one
word of warning did this mother say
to the girl concerning the pit that
she was laundering into unawares.
Not once did she make a single revel-
alton of her sons vile history. She
said nothing of the sanitariums and
cures that he had been in and out
of for years.
Nor did the mother consider it her
duty to tell the girls parents Of the
sort of a man that their daughter was
about to marry, though she knew that
the marriage was bound to bring mis-
cry to the girl and break her par
ents' hearts. She even took steps to
keep them from finding out the true
character of her son.
You knew your son was not fit to
marry anybody" someone said to this
woman. How could you sacrifice that
innocent girl to him."
81 thought perhaps that marriage
might save him. 1t was a chance and
l took it." replied the mother, with
a cynical indifference to everything
but her own child's good.
