Court Activity

There has been a good deal Of
activity in the District Court during
the last week or so, with consider
able more in prospect. This has
been largely in the line of infrac-
tions Of the automobile ordinances !;
driving without lights; owning the
whole of the road when drunk to
the peril of the general public; un-
due speeding round corners, etc.
An interesting case that will come
in few days is that of japanese
dentist, or would be dentist, accus-
ed of practising without a license.
Some $500 of good gambling
money has been taken in by way of
fines already this month.
By common consent the new
Deputy Sheriff is "on the job" all
the time. He is both respected and
feared.

Facilities for Night School

1t is a commendable liberality on
the part of the supervisors that puts
electric light into the public school
buildings for evening classes and
other educational and public pur-
poses.
The latest to be outfitted this way
is the Lihue school which is very
effectively lighted, so that it must
be pleasure to teach there.
A visit to the classes in session
there Monday evening revealed one
in English under Mrs. Wedemeyer,
doing very good work. A dozen
young Filipinos, bright, intelligent
and alert. Also a class in mechani-
cal drawing under Mr.. Davis, fami-
liarizing themselves with the rudi-
ments of the circle, the square and
the triangle. These were young men
of more attainments, of three or
four different nationalities. They
give promise of good work.
The Misses Findley have other
classes on different evenings.

The Mokihana Fair

The Mokihana Club Fair, to be
held at Lihue Armory on the even
ing of Saturday, November the
10th, promises to be one of the
most pretentious affairs of the kind
ever undertaken on Kauai. The
several committees are busily en-
gagged in their various tasks of prepa-
ration and everyone is working
hard to bring it to successful con-
clusion.
One of the important points in
connection with this fair is that
you are going to get your moneys S
worth in everything that you buy.
The articles to be placed on sale
will be, for the most part, necessi-
ties, ARTICLES that you will require
in your daily home life.
Another important point is that
you are going to be royalty enter
tanned, as there will be something
doing every minute.
Among the articles to be sold will
be fancy work of all kinds, jams,
jellies and chutneys, baked beans,
sandwiches and coffee, and PUMP
KIN PIE like your mother tried to
make and couldn't.

National Guard Goes
to Scho6eld Barracks

According to the latest reports re-
ceived at National Guard headquar-
ters, the three companies of guards
men on Kauai will be ordered into
camp November 9th. This un-
doubtedly means that they will go
to Schofeld Barracks along with
the units from the other islands.
Just when the embarkation will
take place is not known at this
time, but Capt. Gonser, Inspector
instructor for this island, believes
that an Inter-Island steamer will
be at their disposal by the time the
troops are concentrated and the
equipment in readiness for ship
ment.
This will be the first encampment
for the Kauai guardsmen, and
needless to say, they are enthusiastic
at the prospect of becoming honest
to-goodness soldiers for three weeks
at least.
A Quartertermaster-S Sergeant from
the Quartermaster Department will
arrive within a few days to help
prepare the equipment for trans
portation.
A sanitary detachment of one
officer and eleven men will be or
ganized and will accompany the
troops.

The Condition Of DR.. Lyman

We regret that we are unable to
report any visible change for the
better in the condition of DR.. Ly-
man which would warrant any con-
fident hope of recovery. Everything
possible is being done in the way
of medical attendance and profess
sional as well as personal care, and
the patient has made a wonderfully
strong fight for life; where there is
life there is hope, so we trust that
he may yet pull through.

their food, living in their homes
and participating in the closest way
in all their conditions of life; and
even more or less learning their
language. All this, save perhaps
the language, he has interesting and

WOMEN'S FOOD
CONSERVATION

Members OF the Women's Com
mittee on Food conservation for
Kauai met for conference at
Lihue on Saturday, October 18th.
There was present full committee,
as follows: Miss Wilcox, chair
man; Mrs. Brandt, Mrs. Hodge,
Miss Hastie, Mrs. Waterhouse, Mrs.
Broadbent, Mrs. Semi, Mrs. Myers,
Miss Edith Christophersen.
The authorization of this COM
mittee comes directly from the
chairman of the Territorial Food
Commission. 1t is to serve as a
subcommittee of the women's COM
mittee in Honolulu, of which Mrs.
A. G. Alexander is Chairman. Miss
Wilcox has been appointed chair
man for Kauai and authorized to
organize the work throughout the
island.
The Importance of arousing the
people of the island to sense of
patriotic duty in the conserving of
food, and the means of doing this
were discussed. 1t was decided
that each committee member should
organize a subcommittee for her
district of as many members az
should find desirable and repre-
sentative of all nationalities. An
attempt will be made to reach every
housekeeper through house-to-bouse
visits, the distribution of Food Ad-
ministration cards, kitchen cards,
folders, through the press, church.
es, schools, and various organiza-
tions.
During the next few weeks an
investigation will be attempted Of
the standard of living of the differ
ent peoples among us, with study
in particular of the amount of
flour used and the possibility of
the substitution of other foods in
part for flour. The committee will
urge upon the community particu-
larly the importance of saving flour,
which is the great need of the peo-
Piles of Europe today. Mrs. Alex
ander's adaptation of 'Hoover's s
rules were decided on as most use
full for the islands. These are:
1. Conserve flour.
2. Eliminate waste.
3. Use home products.
Arrangements for Mrs. Russell's
visit to Kauai, Nov. I'll, were
discussed. Mrs. Russell will de-
monstrate bread-making in every
district during her stay.
A publicity committee, consist
ing of Miss Wilcox, Mrs. Broad
bent, Mrs. Semi, Miss Kuhlig and
Mr.. Case was named. This COM
mittee will, through the courtesy
of the Garden Island" present
each week interesting items con-
cerning Food Conservation in the
columns of that paper.

You haven't forgotten that the
Mokihana Harvest Fair will be held
at the armory Saturday evenings
November the 10th?
The many friends of Miss Castle
man are glad to welcome her to
Lihue again after her visit to her
old home in Canada. The trip has
done wonders for her.
1t is now reported on what seems
to be good authority that Olaa will
put in a bagasse paper mill. Bids
are soon to be called for. 1t is to
be cost between $4,000 and
100000.
Among departing passengers on
the Kinau Saturday were-Miss
Silburn Purvis, who has been visit
ing Mr.. and Mrs. Weber in Lihue,
also Mr.. Herman Rohrig, manager
of the Lihue Store.
Cane will have to guard its laurels.
The sugar but in California has got
up to the high sugar content of "a %,
which so far as we know is consid-
erably higher than cane.
Rev. j. M. Lydgate made a short
stay in Honolulu last week. going
by the Mauna Loa and returning on
the same boat Friday morning
Business connected with the Ha-
waiian Board called him away.
Mrs. Steele, the pleasant and
capable saleswomaE of Jordan & Co.,
Honolulu, is making a visit to Kau-
al, gradually taking in all the sight
seeing trips and generally enjoying
the beauties of the Garden Island.
Mrs. Anna Richardson is making
a somewhat extended visit with her
daughter. Mrs. Chas. F. Loomis.
Mrs. Richardson comes from Kan
sas City which is her home, but
she has been recently visiting her
son at Seattle.
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Girvin spent
a few days last week visiting Mr..
and Mrs. VIM. Henry Rice. Mr..
Girvin, who is a brother of Mrs.
Rice, lives in Philadelphia, and is
a somewhat hurried bust
ness trip here in the Islands. The
Girvins left on the Kinau of Satur-
day last.
Miss Whitehead, who has been in
charge of the Lihue Hospital during
the absence of Miss Castleman for
several months past, left for Homo
lulu by last Saturdays Kinau. We
are sorry to see her leave Kauai, but |
are glad to know that she will re-
main on the Islands for the winter
at any rate. She plans to go to the
tuberculosis Hospital at Kaimuki |
to assist the head nurse there who
is a very dear friend of hers. Miss
is charming lady and |
will make friends for herself where
ever she goes.
Have you seen the merry-go- round |
or better still have you eniohed a
ride thereon? Mr.. Ed. Fernandes
is touring Kauai with it-at present
the outfit is at Kapaa and will doubt
less stay there as long as the money
holds out. From the crowds of
children and even grown folks that
cluster about it, the prediction is
that much of the small cash has al
ready changed ownership. Waimea
was favored first with the merry-go-
round. We trust that Lihue chill
dren may have a chance to spin
round ON it too before very long.

Children Learn About
Bugs and Insects

Mr. A. H. Case, i'll conjunction
with Mr.. Creevey, is conducting a
campaign of instruction in the pub
lie schools of the Island in regard to
destructive insects and pests.
Beginning with Mana they have
made the complete circuit of the
Island. The talks have been given
to the upper grades as rule, though
in some cases where the interest
seemed to warrant the lower grades
were also included to some extent;
Of course IN simple language and
with specimens showing the insects
and their destructive activity by
way of illustration. This instruc-
ton, however, while simple and rudi-
mentary is Immediately practical
and useful
An insect we are told has six legs;
that marks him off from everything
else so that you can always tell
him. Now tell me some insect
that you know" This is pretty
sure to bring out some interesting
responses that are original. but wide
of the mark. A rat, a centipede, |
a lizard; but the leg test straight
ems them up.
A specimen of cane borer is shown
and his depredations are described; |
the insect that destroys the cocoa
nut leaf; the one that eats sweet |
potato vines; the one that bores the
algeroba tree, and another that
preys on the monkey pod; all these
are briefly described and specimens
shown of the insects themselves
and of their activity.
The parasite is described next as
an insect that lives on another one,
and examples are shown of STE
parasites preying on their fellows in |
various ways; Now will some one
give me an instance of q parasite so
that l may know that you under
stand" After brown-study silence
one boy pipes up "A cannibal; he
lives OH other people"
Now, whenever you see one of
these bad insects you want to kill it
SO that it won't go on eating I'D
your gardens. But there are other
ways by which nature herself kills
off these bad insects, and she does
that very effectively by means of
these parasites that sting and poison
and kill them.
Besides this we have ways by
which we can fight against these
bad insects on. a large scale. Some
of these insects eat the leaves or the
body of the plant and we can fix
them by spraying the leaves with
poison that lays them out.
But there are Others that bore
down into the heart of the plant
and suck the juice out. So we have
to get them another way These
insects breathe through fine little
holes all over their bodies; so we
try to plug up these holes so that
they can't breathe. We do that
by spraying them all over with a
solution that chokes them up.
Now, there is a special reason at
this time why we want to kill these
insects, or at least stop them from
eating up our gardens. We went
more than ever to get all the stuff
ourselves so that there will be more
food for our soldiers. The more
that anybody raises the more there
will be in the. country and that
means the more there will be for
our soldiers.
