JUDGE ALLOWS BOY So
A WEEK OUT OF WAGES

Because he was earning 50 a week
and forced to use it to support six
relatives, including his parents, a
young Russian boy appealed to Judge
w. H. Heen Saturday and said he
thought he should be allowed to keep
his own money. Ee said he turned his
wages over to his mother and that
she allowed him so cents week.
The youngster, who is somewhat of
an artist, recently spent 81 for a cor.
respondence course in designing, and
his parents promptly kicked him out
of the house for several days. Judge
Heen smoothed things over by telling
the boy to keep two dollars of his
wages each week and give the rest
to his mother.

ROBS STORE TO GET
MONEY FOR CHRISTMAS
PRESENTS TO FRIENDS

Irnbued with the spirit of Christ
mas, and anxious to give his play
mates a Yuletide remembrance, a Ha-
waiian boy, 9 or 10 years old, entered
a secondhand store owned by a Japa'
nese, stole a key and passed on to
the living apartment. where he un-
locked a bureau drawer and stole $15.
He then had the money changed into
silver and, after spending most Of it
for candy, pie and other things to
eat, distributed the remainder among
his friends, giving each silver dollar.
In juvenile court Saturday the
youngster broke down and cried, and
his mother also wept, declaring she
didn't want her son sent to the re-
form school. So the Japanese, who
owns the secondhand store, relented
and said he wouldn't press the charge,
as it was Christmas.
The mother said she would try and
pay back to the Japanese.

WAILUKUENJOYS
CHRISTMAS TREE

WAlLUKU, Dec. 21.-The crow1
that filled the armory to overflowins
was proof that the first Wailuku
Community Christmas tree was a great
success. Even the original plans OF
the first committee did not call for so
many children as were present.
When, however, it was generously ar
ranged that the Waikapu, Waiehu and
Waihee children should also have a
part in the merriment, the amount OF
candy and apples was at once in
creased to 1900 bags.
The Salvation Army band began the
program with one number, then Isl.
lent Night" was sung by all> those
present. This carol and those that
were sung afterward had been prac-
tised in all the schools and many of
the churches OF Wailuku in prepara-
ton for the event. A choir Of some
twenty voices, with Charles N. Luf.
kin playing the cornet, led. The choir
sang Noel. Away in a Manger" was
the next carol. Following this W. F..
Crockett spoke in behalf of the Red
Cross drive. 20 Come All Ye Faith.
fuI' was sung by the people. One
was rendered by the band and

Santa Claus finished up the fun for
the little people. Ensign Puck, L. X.

were assisted by large number of
