OLD KING COAL TOPPLES.

The fact that the worlds biggest
retail coal company anticipated gov
eminent Intervention in coal prices
with decrease to its Chicago Gus
toners of one dollar to nearly two
dollars ton at one sweep, demon
strates that we should have had
something of this sort into at least
threatened operation this long time
since, and that the baron at the mines
and the pirate at the brokerage house
haven't been the only highWaymen
operating i'll tn coal business, says
til Macon Telegraph. The retaiIed
with whom the generally oppressed
and eXtOrted common run OF us have
had a good deal Of sympathy, tgur
ing him as a fellOW-victim. it seems
has gotten his while the getting was
good, along with all the rest
That's big reduction made in Chi
Cago 1t is estimated the citys coal
bill is reduced thirty million dollars
company. This big firms lead will,
of course, be followed all over the
country pretty shortly. or it had bet
ter be BY itsvOluntary cuts in adj
vance of impending regulation the
big company proved that retail coal
prices are at a higher range than
they ever should have been and that
in some instances at least the cuts
need not wait on the mines to start
can bed one right in the retailers
office.
We want to see it done, and done
as cXpeditiously as possible. Peo-
pie can't stand the scale of prices
that prevailed on Il good many com
modities last year through another
winter Coal was one OF the chief
sinners until UnCle Sam reached out
an iron hand to stay the further eA-
ready achieved in, the great Chicago
market will be effected in the small
est of cities and the country towns.
Once done in this country, people
will never again pay the coal man,
retailer, miner, broker. more than a
just and modest profit for this great
necessity. Tho age of loot of the pub
lie on the necessities that come
out of the ground is passing out. We
may not be getting any appreciably
greater degree of government of the
people by the people, but every day
we do see more government for the
people which. after all is the main
end of all good government.

by loss of life of many children, wOm-
en- and even men, this city should
follow the example set by YOnkers,
New York. which organized a Fire
Prevention Committee, which organ
lied the school children of the city
and the Boy Scouts into an Organiza-
ton to prevent fires. 1t was found
that many fires are caused by the
careless handling of matches, oils
and other oombustibles, and by the
careless starting of bonfires by chill
dren and the burning of trash by
their elders. Steps were taken to
eliminate these risks, and, best of
all to inculcate in the minds of the
rising generation both fear of fires
and the knowledge OF how to prevent
them

MANY new Lines IN EDUCATIONAL
WORKTOBEOFFERED VIC, A,

The educational department of the
Young Women's Christian Association
is offering, for the fall term, several
new and interesting features in addi,
ton to the courses given last year.
Class In Mechanics
A course in the running and me
chanics of automobiles will undoubt.
eddy be received with much enthusi-
asm, as many young women are eager
to avail themselves of opportunities
to prepare for national service by fill.
ing positions vacated by men. Many
women who own their own cars will
be glad to study the general mechan.
ism of the automobile and to learn
practical methods of repair for the
average car.
Business Course
The Y. w. C. A. hopes to fill a de-
cided need in offering a thorough
business course. There will be classes
of typewriting, stenography and bust.
ness English. Business English will
be required of all who take stenog.

business English is passed. .......
Domestic Science

express ones individuality in the
clothes one wears, but we would not
like to admit the lack of temperament
which sameness In dress would most
surely indicate. Bearing this in mind,
would stand us in good stead, when
we go forth to purchase new winter
coat. We should decide upon lines
that are entirely different from the
majority of things that we wear, and
the change will be found delightful.
A long wasted coat when opened up
on dainty short wasted frock, would
give very pleasing effect of contrast.
This word, contrast" is the keynote
OF all fashion lore. Almost every
gown, wrap or waist is described in
contrasting colors or materials.
Some of the new shades for fall
and winter. are Cardoue, Rouille, Sene.
CALAIS, soieil, Feeble, Billiard, Emf
hence, vieux Blue, Marmotte, Flotte,
Chaimois. Pivoine, Quetsch, Ceder

RED CROSS navy
AUXILIARY MAY
Be FORMED HERE

Advices received today from Wash
ington announce that the formation
of the Naval Auxiliary Of the Ameri-
can Red Cross, with branches through
out the country. are taking place I'M
der the direction of the Red Cross
War Board Mrs. E. T. Stotesbury OF
Philadelphia has been named chair
man of the auxiliary, and Secretary Of
the Navy Joseph Daniels will shortly
appoint an advisory committee Of
women to aid her in the work.
The plan is to have the Red Cross
take over and coordinate all the navy
relief activities such as are now be-
ing conducted by the Navy League
and various other organizations. The
local organizations throughout the ma.
ton will affiliate with, and be respon-
sible to the Red Cross chapters. who
will furnish literature and raw ma.
terial, and ship the finished articles to
a central eastern depot.
While local officials Of the Hawaii
Red Cross have not yet received mott
fication Of this new organization
movement, they believe It is an ex.
cellent plan, as all the military relief
work will be under the control Of one
organization. It is further believed
that this order will tend to offset the
confusion caused by the recent an
nouncement of Secretary Daniels that
no more articles would be accepted
from the Navy League.
The local Red Cross has been ac.
cepting work from the Navy League
here in Honolulu, and the relief work
ers have already shipped two cases
of finished articles to their New York
depot. The cases contained socks, As
muffiers, q pairs Of wristlets, SO
jackets, sleeveless, and q number Of
jackets with sleeves.
The Navy League, under the direc.
ton Of Mrs. Gerrit p. Wilder, recently
organized a number Of Red Cross
first aid classes. Work In elementary
hygiene was taught under the direc.
ton of the Women's Section of the
Navy League. Thus the local women,
many Of whom are members Of both
the Red Cross and Navy League auxi.
liary, are cooperating in the relief
work ..... ~
The step toward organizing a naval
auxiliary to the Red Cross was taken
at the suggestion OF President Wilson
who said that the Red Cross was
broad enough to embrace all efforts
for the relief Of our soldiers and sail.

agencies tended to confusion, delay

Mrs. Roger Burnham, director of the
Lanai Theater Company, which opens
the season at Laniakea next month,
is to have a class in the use of the

produce several plays during the year,
