The Danger Of Neglect

Many persons fail to realize how
important it is to register births,
deaths and marriages. -.
An example of the importance of
these records has recently come up
in Honolulu Miss Waldron, born
some Is years ago on Maui, is seek
ing admission to Girton College.
Cambridge England; but before she
can be admitted she must produce
a certified copy of her birth certi-
ficate. When application was made
to the proper authorities locally,
for this certificate, it could not be
secured for the simple reason that
the birth had never been recorded.
These birth certificates are also
very necessary factors in claim
for life insurance, as a means of es-
tablishing the age affidavit ~ i {
seems, perhaps, like looking very
long way ahead to record your birth
in order that you may be primed
for your death, but it is simple
thing 10 do; and the neglect of it
may be serious.

Court Activity

The Lihue District Court is-quite
busy these days. The more rigid
enforcement of the automobile ordi-
nances is the cause of much of this
renewed activity.
In the last few days ten or twelve
convictions have been made for out
board baggage protruding beyond
the running board, and several 9th.
ers for carrying too many passengers
fast driving, etc.
We heartily commend this activi-
ty on the part of the police depart
ment and the court.

Cane Cutting at Kapaa

Cane-cutting in the homesteads
will be finished this week; it is un-
derstood that the yield from home
stead growers will have reached
about 40, 900 tons of cane, which
has been converted by Kealia mill
into about 1000 tons of sugar. The
average price received by the home
steaders for this has been around
1918 per ton, or gross return OF
some s270,000.00. The greater part
of this years crop was from plant
crops on land where the clearing ex-
pense was high, the net to the
growers probably does not average
over 80 90 per ton of cane.
The heavy homestead tonnage
has, resulted in Kealia mill greatly
over-running its estimate, tho exact
figures have not been given out as
yet,

The Red Cross Magazine

The Red Cross magazine has a
very large circulation and one that
is rapidly increasing, so rapidly in
deed, that it is difficult for. the
mailing lists to keep pace with the
subscription lists. In one mornings
mail %, 1872 subscriptions were re-
ceived and. the August issue was ex-
hausted before it came off the press.
In many cases there is delay in
forwarding the names to the mail
ing office. But whatever the delay
subscribers are requested to be
patient, and send complaints if need
be to.
The Circulation Manager, The Red
Cross Magazine, Garden City,
l.. /. New York.
The magazine is a fine one, OF
high literary and artistic quality,
giving exceedingly good value for
the subscription price.

Miss Mabel Thompson of Mil

Friday last. She is teacher at the

Mr.. Alexander Lindsay is max
ing somewhat lengthy visit with
his daughter Mrs. j. A. Hogg.
Having known Lihue in a more
casual way these many years he
did not realize how delightful a
place it is and how many nice
people there are here; as he says.
The "hihimanu" or kite fish
abound in the sea and as is their
wont about this time of the year,
come into the bays and reefs to catch
the "amaama" that are running
now. Mr. Coney and Mr.. Trow-
bridge caught three big fellows in a
net at Niumalu the other day, while
others have been shot at Wailua
These hihimanus have been known
to frighten mermaids as well as
fish. The three or four bone like
needles 2l2 inches 4ong at the base
of the tail are very poisonous. They
are detachable like porcupine quilts

Deep sea fishermen complain
that the fishing is very bad this
year off the western coast of Kauai
and about Niihau, because of un-
usually strong currents running.
For this reason it is difficult to
keep the lines in place and most of
the fishing has to be done by troll
ing which is slow and comparative
lp nnnroductive

Koloa Is, Lihue 5

And it was not such an awfully
punk game at that. That is, not
as bad as it might have been. There
were several very interesting plays
made on both sides. The home run
wallop by Waialeale was about as
pretty a hit as has been seen on the
Lihue diamond The work of the
Koloa team shows careful and con-
tinuous practice. Their team work
is excellent and their ability to hit
the ball shows that branch of the
game is not neglected in their prac-
tice.
Koloa made seven runs in the
first inning, after which Lihue
frightened up and held their oppon-
ents down to an occasional run.
Along about the seventh inning
when it began to look like Lihue
was going to be shut out, by good
hard work they squeezed man
home. They had a rally in the
eighth and put four men across, but
it was too late to overcome Koloa s
