members of the Civic Convention to
Honolulu. 1t was the Y. w. C. AS
contribution to the convention, and
was planned and carried out under the
direction of Miss Leonora Andersen.
Columbia Calls was the title, and
the story Of the pageant was the call

service for Columbia in the time OF
war. Miss Eta Agee told the story OF
the silent play before the actors APP

sented the association spirit.
The three spirits of grief, who gave
the most artistic bit OF the pageant in
their dance before Columbia, were

addition there were groups represent

QUICK ACTION
SAVES LIFE Of
POISON VICTIM
Emergency Hospital Called to
Rush for Sick, Dead and
Dying at Same Time

Both the emergency hospital ambu.
lance and the police patrol we're need
ed last night to respond to accident
calls from the Waikiki district. The
first call was from DR. J. T. Wayson.
who wanted the ambulance to carry
an aged Hawaiian to the hospital.
The Hawaiian was seriously i'll. The
ambulance hurried down to Diamond
Head road to pick up the patient, and
almost Immediately after leaving
headquarters a second call was turn
ed in, this time from the Moana ho-
tel
A little Japanese girl had been found
drowned in the stream that divides
the hotel and Outrigger club property
Hospital Steward Frank Stevenson,
who had charge of the emergency
hospital at the time, despatched the
police patrol to the Moana, and pick
up the ambulance on the way back.
No sooner had he hung up the re-
ceiver than another call was turned in
from Ala Moana road. This time q
Chinese woman, Lee Chun See, had
taken poison.
Stevenson jumped into the police pa
troll and made a flying trip to Wal
kiki where he headed off the ambu-
lance. The dead Japanese child was
placed in the ambulance, with the SICK
Hawaiian. and the patrol dashed Off
to Ala Moana road. The Chinese
woman was rushed to the emergency
hospital where DR.. r. G. Aver used
the stomach pump effectively and aG-
ministered antidotes. Although re-
ceived at the hospital in serious con-
dition she was discharged this morn
ing in good shape.
The Japanese girl, Yacho Fukumoto,
had been wandering around in the Mo-
ana hotel yard when she fell into the
stream. The girl must have been
dead an hour before the body was dis
covered. An inquest was held this
morning.

DRUNK INSULTS
RED CROSS BADGE
and ITS WEARER

While in the performance Of her
duties, and wearing the badge OF the
American Red Cross, a district nurse
of Palama Settlement was assaulted
by a drunken Hawaiian at Camp ,,
Vineyard street, last Friday. After
beating off the man, she telephoned to
police headquarters and asked that an
officer be sent to the scene of the
affair and arrest the assailant. The
nurse complains that the police told
her there was no one to send at that
time.
Several hours later, the nurse says,
she phoned to headquarters second
time. She was at the settlement dis
pensary, but the police failed to send
an officer to receive a description and
complaint against the man, she claims.
The following morning Supt. Rath, Of
Palama Settlement, got in touch with
Capt. Fred Iaukea. and the latter sent
an officer up to the dispensary. The
officer received the description of the
nurses assailant, and started out af-
ter the man. According to Supt. Rath,
he has not been notified of the mans
arrest.
Mr.. Rath conferred with Deputy
Sheriff Julius Asch about the matter,
and the deputy declared that neither
Capt. Baker nor Segt Fieldgrove re-
member receiving any call from the
nurse. They believe the call was re-
ceived when some other officer was on
duty at the desk.
Supt. Rath. when discussing the af-
fair this morning asked if women are
to be murdered before the police send
the ambulance and detectives to the
scene?" This is the first time a dis
trict nurse has ever been insulted
while on duty, he declares, and the
first time the badge OF the Red Cross
has not been respected.

ARMY
GIVESIIS VIEWS
ON court PROBE

Whether further hearings will be
held in the investigation on condi-
tions at the Salvation Army home,
Manoa, begun yesterday afternoon in
juvenile court, has not been defini-
tely decided by Circuit Judge VIM. H.
Heen, he said today.
The investigation was based on a
letter received by Circuit Judge Ash
ford from a girl in the home COM
planning she was being overworked
and inviting the judge to come up
and see,' if he doubted her asser-
tions. The communication was turn
ed over to Judge Heen, who re-
quested Adj. annie Sabine to be pres
ent at the hearing yesterday.
In connection with the investiga-
ton Col Robert Dublin makes the
following statement:
Referring to statements made in
the press regarding conditions in the
Salvation Army girls home in Ma
noa Valley, permit me to say that this
institution is at all times open for in
yestigation, and always has been. The
statement made by one of the inmates
as appearing in last evenings edition
of the StarBulletin to the effect that
the girls were overworked and under
fed, is entirely false and the girl max.
ing the statement was questioned y
Judge Heens office in the presence,
of the institution admitted that she
did not do all the laundry work alone,
but at all times received some help;
sometimes having as many as eight
other girls assisting her.
The fact of the matter is that the
girl in question is mentally deficient,
having been cared for in this home
for four years, entering the home ex.
pecting to become a mother in the
course Of few months.
mitted to go out to work 'etaointaoi
Her statement, Girls are not per-
mitted to go out to work, is false, for
whenever in the estimation of the ma.
tron of this home it is advisable TO
allow girls to go out to positions, these
positions are gotten for them with
res ponSible families. This girl has
repeatedly been given an opportunity
of leaving at any time she could Sc
cure suitable employment She was
sent here not by the ju-
Fenile court but by her father because
he did not consider her capable of
taking care OF herself, and also to
know that she was under good Chris
ton influence. The father has again
and again begged the officers of this
home not 10 let her go to an outside
position on account Of her mental in
capacity.
with regard to work; it is quite
true that all girls who are in the home
and capable, are expected to work and
do their share in the work OF the in
stitution and they are always glad to
do this. The home was never intend
ed as a place where children should
be brought up in idleness, and each
one Of them are taught some useful
employment; and yet wo do deny the
statement that any girl IS ovcrworked.
The girl who does the cooking is l.
years of age, is very strong physically.
and when questioned by Judge Heen
Tuesday, expressed herself as being
perfectly satisfied in every way.
The children's education is given
as careful attention as it is possible,
and we would respectfully refer any
one wanting information on this point
to see the principal of the Kaahumann
school, where the older girls attend.

RODGERS
PROVES AGE; HIS
CASE DISMISSED

Investigations made today by the
territorial registration board in the
case of Philip M. Rodgers, treasurer
Of Libby, Mcneil & Libby, satisfied
the authorities conclusively that he
had violated no provision of the draft
act and his case was dismissed.
1t was brought out in the testimony
that Rodgers had been misinformed
as to his age, and had thought himself
younger than he really was. 1t was
not until Mrs. Rodgers received a let.
ter from his sister stating that a
younger brother had been drafted and
remarking on the fact that Philip Rod
gers was past draft age that he was
led to investigate the matter.
Today he produced an affidavit
signed by his father, Charles E. Rod.
gers, to the effect that he is 80 years
of age and hence not in the draft
limits. It was also brought out that
he has been a subscriber to the liberty
loan and that his wife is local Red
Cross worker. IN, 3D..

diagram made up of four squares, Fac
squares ranging a little to the right Of

line drawn down through the lot from

1t passes just beyond the uppermost
four squares. at the bottom it passes
Just before the lowermost four squares.

bread per week. If he eats -four pounds
Of bread per week he must eat no

This diagram will settle at a glance
the difficulty which many people seem
to have in balancing the quantities of
bread and flour which they are allowed
by the national rations. 1t shows at a
single glance how much flour may be
