on the actions Of the club, and IL was
seen early that Harold Castle would
be elected president. There wasn't
much of fight put up. and except il
the conversations dealing with per

Ter went merrily along the way, and
only one nomination was made for

In accepting the position as presf

pleased to accept the honor, and would
do everything possible to assist in
building up the club. With a reor.
ganization he hoped to see the Hui

Castle made a big hit with the mem
bers when he announced that there
was a plan on foot to secure home
for the club. He announced that the
Territorial Hotel company had offered
to give the members a site on the
beach free for five years. The site is
at the point where the stream empties
between the Moana hotel and Out
rigger club. 1t is considered that this
would be an ideal place for club

The president will appoint a COM

completed, 1t is expected that the
clubhouse will be erected at a cost
of $4,000 or $4,000.

test for the prize to be given the
leading hitter OF the Commercial

SWIMMING MEET
SHOULD RECEIVE
SUPPORT OF ALL

Swimming in Honolulu is bigger
than any one man, and all those who
were the victims OF an attack by Raw
Inns at the meeting of the Hui NaluS
last evening, should cooperate IN
every way to make the meet in Sep
tember a success. Rawlins Is the
logical man at the present time 70

Resorting 10 child's play isn't going
to help the situation one particle, and
for the good Of swimming the OPP
pOnents OF Rawlins should get in and
put their shoulder to the wheel and
boost for the meet Those who weeo
denounced because they believed a
change would be for the benefit OF
sport, ought to be big enough to rise
above any petty factions such as Il
don't like you," and He's mad at me
because | didn't agree with him."
The writer was accused OF being
an opponent Of Rawlins in the situa-
ton, and some little thing which
wouldn't make any difference one way
or other was brought up. Glenn Jack.
son, Harry Decker and others were
also mentioned in the Attack on the
Western Sector" 1t would have been
much better for the situation had the
A. A. Q. not been mentioned at the
meeting last evening, but that will
be forgotten. The main point has
been gained. and that is OF more i'm,
portance to our local athletic situOr
ton.
We are going to have some good
swimmers here, and it is up to an
the opponents of the president Of tho
A. A. U. to join in and make the meet
a success. When the time comes
when the swimmers can get together
and adjust their differences, and tho
officials will forget personalities, thsa
the game will be boosted here.
At any rate getting behind the wu.
gon and pushing things along is tho
best way. It is expected that Rawlipa
can call on any one of the men who
voted against him to assist in every
way. The Hui Nalus went on record
as boosting this plan last evening.

The Stacker.

''The Palisadian" wishes volun-
tarily to call attention to wonderful
moving picture recently produced by
the Metro Film Corporation called
"The Stacker" This picture is hav-
ing great run all over the country
wherever presented.
It is a war drama and pictures a
well-to-do family in which there are
two sons, boy of nineteen or TWEEN
ty, and another around twenty live
both the pride of their father. The
war comes on and the younger boy
enlists in the navy and as the war
spirit progresses the war atmosphere
increases around the house. Young
men friends come dressed in military
garb, and a younger sister is the
popular favorite, the home being a
sort of social center for handsome
young officers.
In the meantime, the older brother,
goaded by his tendencies as a slack
er, is getting the worst of it, and
finally he persuades his sweetheart
to marry him at once to keep out of
the army. This only accentuates his
embarrassments, and he is called a
''petticoat Stacker" after he an
.nounces that he will stay at home
and "feed the dove of peace" His
young wife takes up war work and is
an active factor in the enlisting pro-
cesses. The younger brother finally
denounces the Stacker and swears
never to speak to him again. The
scenes of contempt for the Stacker
grow in vehemence, until finally they
begin to affect him deeply. An i'm
usual incident brings him to his
senses. Several small children are
playing with an American flag and a

Reading and Thinking.

Reading is not thinking. The func-
ton of the printed word is to provide
information and present ideas. 1t
puts sand on the greasy wheels of
the intelligence. 1t cannot supply
the steam. A man who wishes to
advance must furnish his own motive
power.
A great many people sit down
with newspaper or book as they
would to game of solitaire, to pass
the time. Why not to aid digestion
or after good days work? There
is certainly no harm in it. The harm
comes from confusing the two ideas
of thought and recreation; from de-
ceiving themselves into the belief
that their minds are at work because
they are conscious of not beng
asleep. That confusion gives the
man false sense of superiority. 1t
develops instead of dissipates mental
laziness. They sit comfortably in the
train without realizing that not a
wheel has turned, and when they get
out they are exactly on the spot they
started from. If they would look
out of the windows at the world they
would at least gain the healthy knowl-
edge that they are not standing still.
1t is not that people seldom remem-
l>o,. @ba1y rood Com atil01pc fhpV
remember all too well. They fairly
clutter up their minds with facts.
But no matter how many separate
fragments of information one has he
cannot make a pattern from them
unless he will put forth the effort
necessary to combine them. Any
body can collect thousand bits Of
colored stone, but it takes an artist
to make real mosaic of them.
The fact is, of course, as nearly
all the philosophers from Plato to
Peter Dunno, have noted, thinking
is hard manual labor. 1t brings out
the sweat. AS Emerson remarked,
we blench from it, and withdraw from
side to side. 1t is real work to dig a
trench, but it is harder still to cut
a new channel in the brain for an
idea.
So people will go on fooling them
selves over phrases when they might
better be out lying on their backs
looking at the trees or the stars; or,
better still, wrestling vigorously with
those phrases, to get, so far as they
can, the truth out Of them.

Bad Morals of A Publication

The New Republic, calling itself a
journal of Opinion" would add to
public approval some if it toned itself
down a bit on the broadness of its
moral concepts. This publication has
recently come into quite little no.
toriety because it is backed by GER
tain literary highbrows, whose money
is evidently looked upon by its
handlers as sort of licensed free
speech emporium. Like number of
it's compeers in audacity, it has free
ly criticized the government, contn-
ues to do so, and hestitates at nothing
that will evidence it's critical attitude.
Its editor evidently regards himself
as statesman of great ability. He
no doubt has travelled abroad, hob
nobbed with royalty, and therefore
knows the demands of the present
war situation. The recent note of
President Wilson did not meet at all
the approval of the "New Republics"
editor. In series of journal of
opinion" views, it tears Mr.. Wilson's
position to tatters. If criticism were
directed with any degree of intelli-
gence, it would not make so much
matter. But to retail lot of plati-
tutdes that everybody knows and lis
heartily sick of, is not scoring against
the President. There is no way to
suppress such egoists as the New Re-
public, so long as they stand on the
verge of disloyalty and do not quite

The Presidents Outing.

The little rest taken by President
Wilson this week aboard the Govern
ment yacht Mayfower was a long
delayed pleasure that he deserved.
The President. has worked long and
arduously at his multitude of war
duties, and perhaps no man in the
world ever had such tremendous res
possibilities. He is wonder at
efficiency, and his remarkable train
ing makes it possible for him to dis
patch business with great celebrity,
yet withal great accuracy. The
American people will not begrudge
President Wilson all the rest he de-
mands. He should, perhaps, take a
great deal more than he does. He is
not himself willing to say that he is
a martyr to his country's interests,
but he is unfailingly faithful and de-
votedly loyal to every duty of his
Office. No man ever did more work
in the White House than Woodrow
Wilson. He is always busy.

Commissioner Brensinger's
Death.

The death of Commissioner Bren-
singer of Jersey City through tragic
automobile accident was a sad end
ing to vigorous, successful and
active career. Courageous to the
last degree George Brensinger had
spent his manhood career in service
to his people. His loyalty to his
own convictions was in evidence all
the time. He was unafraid and
aggressive, yet modest withal The
taking off of a man of his force was
a blow indeed.
And this tragedy reveals condi-
ton that demands State attention
in the regulation of roadway traffic
where side roads come into the main
highways of travel. Signs of suf-
ficient size to prevent their being
passed unobseryed should be State
enterprise, and infraction Of road
rules to proceed carefully should be
duly punished Careless driving by
heavy trucks is proverbial. Whether
the drivers of these vehicles are law
less or not, they take far more liber-
ties than they should, in view of the
great danger smaller machines or
horse-drawn vehicles have in their
neighborhood They seldom can be
gotten to draw to one side by passing
pleasure cars, and frequently hold up
long lines on narrow roadways. The
Brensinger accident was no doubt
due to an Indifferent driver who
smashed into the main road from a
side road.

War Opiysi0ns.

If any man has an opinion as to
the possible outcome of the war at
this time he would be wasting his
time expressing it. Proving anything
is mere conjecture. We literally
know nothing and therefore opinion
is merely guessing. We can only
tell what things look like. With the
news system regulated by one source
what we hear must be taken for
granted.
That Germany's mobility is still as
serting herself is clearly shown at
Riga and around Trieste. On the
West front she is simply dug in.
Progress there is negligible for the
Allies. But when America throws
her real force into the breech, there
may be, and doubtless will be differ
ent story to tell. That time is fast
approaching.
So far as Germany's sea power is
concerned, we know it is greatly re-
duced, and that her submarine cam
paign has not yet starved England
and doubtless never will.
Another deduction may be drawn
here. If the war continues another
year or two or three years, Germany
will be weakened from within, where
as, with America and Japan in opera
ton, the chances are about ten to
one in favor of the Allies. Germany
may be disturbed at this time with
peace talk within her borders. But
victorious peace will never be her
portion in this war, at least. Her
resistance and attack are superb
indeed, wonderful. But some things
are impossible. Germany, apparent
ly, has this yet to learn. She will
find out.
