A good man for the Honolulu Chamber of Com
merce and for Hawaii at Washington is George
Mex. Mcclellan. He knows the islands thoroughly
and he knows Washington thoroughly. He has a
wide acquaintance and is persona grata at the ma
tional capital. Everyone at Washington who has
had to do with Mr. Mcclellan speaks we'll of him.
Hawaii was always more adequately represented
at Washington when Mcclellan was on the job than
after he had removed to Seattle and severed
local connections. 1t is obvious that we need at
Washington some lve-wire spokesman who can
think and act quickly on behalf of the terrtory's
commerce and trade

CIRCUIT JUDGE S. B. KEMP:
The petitions of the Koloa Sugar Co,
and the Paa Agricultural Co. Of Kauai
for registration of title to some 1000
acres of land on the Garden Island, is
looked upon as the most important,
and one of the largest land court mat
tiers in the last few years.
JOHN EFF1NGER: I believe that
Hawaii can secure more passenger &C
commodations by going after them. A
number of steamers travelling through
here from various ports have empty
cabins and by organizing the service
so that advantage may be taken o.
these, tourists will be assured of ade'
quate facilities. There's no need to
feel that we are going to have short
age of passenger space on vessels
touching Honolulu.

Washington Bureau,
The Pensacola Iournal.

Washington, April 18.-The weekly
review of the national weather crop
bulletin says farming conditions al.
most everywhere throughout the
country are generally backward, the
season unfavorable, with termination
slow in southern districts.
Improvement is reported in the con-
dition of winter wheat in Kansas and
Oklahoma, and steady improvement
in the Ohio valley.
In most east and central districts,
winter wheat crop is expected to be
short as forecast. The shortage of
labor and the high price of seed will
prevent the material increase of po-
tatoes.

ADJUSTMENTS
Carlyle Blackwell and Gail Kane,
Bonita Tomorrow.

A thrilling and unusual story,
based on a phase of the European
war, is son Dangerous Ground"
which is coming to the Bonita thea
tire tomorrow.
In order to escape the German
spies it is necessary in "On Danger
Gus Ground" for the heroine to pass
herself off as the wife of the hero.
Up to the time that she does this
the heroine has never before seen the
hero. 1t is easy to imagine some of
the complications which arise from
this unusual situation. 1t is because
"On Dangerous Ground" is so utterly
different that it is so exceptionally
entertaining and interesting. This
new drama is World Picture Brady

lyle Blackwell are the stars. 1t will
be seen at the Bonita theatre tomor-
row, and every lover of thrilling and
entertaining photoplays should en-
brace the opportunity of seeing it.

Pauline Frederick in Sleeping Fires"
Those who have followed Pauline
Frederick's film career will note the
wide range of subjects and charac-
tiers her work has covered. While
there is no doubt about the fact that
Miss Frederick's best work is done
in heavy emotional types of pictures,
still the fact remains that this gifted
actress of the screen possesses a
scope seldom equalled. For instance,
she has played as old woman in "The
Moment Before" a wild young girl
in Audrey" an adventures in THE
Worlds Great Snare;" quiet, home
loving woman in "The Woman in the
Case;;" again young girl, but this
time a suspected shoplifter, in

ture she portrays young wife and
mother fighting through the long bat

Ella Hall in ..PolIy Reload"

Edgar Jepson's "Pollyooly" stories
have been translated to the screen by
Bluebird photoplays and the result
will be exhibited as the attrc ction at
the Isis theatre on Friday, when Ella
Hall will interpret dual roles, playing
characters that represent two little
girls so much alike that one may be
substituted for the other in a time
of domestic stress, when their elders
have come to the parting of the
ways in married life. How these lit
tie red-heads are instrumental in
working out happy solution of the
difficulties forms an interesting
screen presentment, filled with nat
ural comedy and often bringing a
sympathetic tear to The eyes of sem
| timental onlookers. Among the many
| interesting incidents will be one in
which Miss Hall, in playing the dual
roles, will meet herself in the same
scene, talk, laugh, play and romp
with herself in the dual personages
of girls who look so much alike that
they cannot be distinguished one
from the other.

Average Mans Honesty

A banker who, for the first time ia.
his life, has come into intimate con-
tact with poverty-stricken folk, says:
"The average man wants only half
chance to be honest"
This is q thing worth learning, re-
marks the Toledo Blade. But it did
not require visits to the slums to find
1t cut. A little thought would have
served as weh. The mass of people
is constituted of average men. The
mass has the power to do whatever it
wills to do. 1t could, IL it wished,
rise in the night and strip the rich
bare, and since 1t Is the mass that
represents the majority will, 1t could,
so far as the law Is concerned, go I'M
punished.
But the average man is honest. The
mass wants nothing of bloodshed and
robbery. Those who possess are safe
from those who have nothing. Our
banker friend who visited poverty row
used his eyes. His remark shows
that, for most of his years, he hadn't
on this particular subject, used his
brains.

POINTS FOR POULTRY RAISER

A little salt in the mash food dur-l
Ing the winter is an advantage, though
not enough should be used to make It
taste salty.
All of the kitchen and table waste il,
good for the fowls, unless IL contains
lot OF salt. and 1t may be fed mixedi
In the mash or merely as scraps, In a.
trough at midday.
A good way to find out what the re-
Quirements Of well-bred fowls are.
is to visit poultry show and study
the exhibits, talk with the exhibitors
and question the Judge.
Although damaged grain, sweepings,
screenings, etc, Gan be bought for
comparatively low prices sometimes.
they are not an economical food be-
cause they contain SO little available
food that will nourish the hen and
make eggs.
1t Is the abuse and not the use OF
corn that condemns 1t as a poultry
food.
The keeping and care of flock Of
pure-bred birds Is a pleasure, where
the keeping and care of flock Of
mixed birds Is task.
Do not feed more food of any kind
In troughs or In the scratching litter
than the fowls will eat up in reason
able time, because any that remains Is
likely to spoil and be detriment to
the fowls as well as waste to the
owner.
