Donald Macintosh
Killed In Action
Wounded Last Year And Killed In
April OF This Year-ReCipient
OF Victoria Cross

The following account is taken from
the Blairgowrie Advertiser, Scotland,
and is of interest to Maui people, both
for the heroism it reports and for the
fact that Lieutenant Macintosh is a
relative of a Puunene family.
Lieutenant Donald Macintosh, late
Seaforth Highlanders, whose name is
included in the latest list of recipients
of the Victoria Cross, was the only
son of Colonel Donald ]. Macintosh,
c. B., M. V. o., Medical Superintendent
at Glasgow Western Division. He was
II years of age and was educated at
Glasgow Academy, st. Ninian's Moffat,
and Feltes College. He was wounded
in April of last year and was killed in
action on April 11th of this year
Deceaseds mother was Miss Fuller
ton, Redstone Farm on Sobhall Estate,
of which his uncle, Mr.. James Fuller
ton is the present tenant. The family
have been in occupancy of kedstone
for generations and Lieutenant Mac
kintosh had spent much of his holiday
time there, and was greatly thought
of by all in the district with whom
he came in contact. Telling the story
of how the late Lieutenant won his
V. c., Sergeant of the regiment said,
without exception, Lieutenant Mac
kintosh was the bravest officer who
ever led men into action. Had it not
been for his bravery and self-sacrifice
under great difficulty we would have
been wiped out completely that day.
AS soon as we went over it began to
rain shells, and as for machine-gun
around to give every man of us a
round dozen and still have plenty for
the next comers. We had just got in
TO our stride when the Lieutenant who
now commanded the company was hit

mind, Seaforths; Keep it up!' 4hen
he got to his feet and though he was
in great pain, he persisted in hobhling
towards the position we had to take.
He led us straight 81 tie enemy par.

BAPTISMAL
FONT WAS
DEDICATED
Large Audience Assemble For The
Final Service OF Dedication At
Makawao Union Church
SINGING WAS FEATURE OF SERVICES
Baptismal Font Presented By The
Many Hawaiian And Japanese
Friends OF H. P. Baldwin

A large and appreciative audience
assembled on last Sunday at the Ma
kawao Union Church. The occasion
was the dedication of the Baptismal
font of the church which had been
presented by the former close HaW-
allan and Japanese associates OF the
late Henry P. Baldwin. Addresses
were made in Hawaiian by VIM.
II. Rice of Lihue, Rev. Stephen l..
Desha, of Hilo, Rev. David X. White,
of Lahaina, and Rev. John P. Erdman
of Honolulu. The remarks of Mr.
Desha were rendered into English by
Mr.. Erdman, and Rev. Scudder's mes
sage was also in that language.
1t would be hard to decide which
of the choirs was the best, for all OF
five choirs represented, rendered their
selections with much fervor and show
ed considerable preparation and good
training. Especially melodious, how
ever, were the Hear Our Prayer, 0
Father" and the response following
the benediction, sung by the Molokai
Choir, and the anthem Jerusalem
My Glorious Home, by the Paia choir
The Joint collections of the two ded,
icatory sevices amounted to little
over one thousand dollars, and will
be given to the Hawaiian Board and
tie Armenian Relief funds.
With the new grass coming up, out
lining the base of the new church
the grounds laid out with much taste
by James Lindsay of Haiku, are be
coming well defined in line and will
be .distinctively beautiful setting fol
the edifice.

BIG TIME
PROMISED
TOVISTTORS
Delegates To Civic Convention Are
Assured Good Time In And
Around Honolulu
TO VISIT THE TRAINING CAMP
Union Church Services Will Be Held
At Central Union Church On
Sunday Morning

On Saturday morning, in Honolulu,
all delegates to the Civic Convention
are supposed to be on hand for the
big doings planned in that city, to
occur on Sunday, Monday, and Tues
day, Sept. 16, II, and 18th. They are
asked to proceed to the Promotion
Committee rooms in the Young build
ing, at once upon arrival to register
and receive all necessary credentials,
tickets and badges.
The program as first arranged has
been altered as will appear in the
following communication;
Instead of a trip around the isl
and on Sunday, September 16, for
visiting delegates to the coming Civic
Convention, and their relatives, the
central committee proposes to substi
| tute run to Haleiwa, with a side trip
to the officers training camp at Scho-
| field Barracks on the way home.
The plain truth is that there are
stretches Of the road around the isl
and on the windward side so rough
that many owners Of automobiles
were not willing to lend their cars.
The late legislature assigned half
million dollars from the proceeds of
the sale of the territorial bonds to
| build a concrete road through these
sloughs, sand pits and gullies, but the
bonds have not been sold and the road
remains what it was. In any event
construction could not have been com
menced for some months.
Having told the truth and shamed
| the devil, the committee has the vir-
tuous satisfaction of feeling that it is
rather better off than before. Unques-
tionably the most interesting sight
the Islands have to show their own
citizens just now is the officers train
ing camp. Those who live in Homo
lulu have standing opportunity to
visit it but for many of the delegates
from Maui, Hawaii and Kauai their
trip to the convention is the only
chance they will have before the camp
closes to see their friends and rela-
tves in training.
AS originally planned the trip
around the island would not have left
time for a visit to the training camp
Making the shorter run to Haleiwa
and return there will be ample time
j. Ashman Beaven was named a com,
mittee of one to perfect arrangements
with Capt Elvin Hunt, in command
of the camp, and Raymond c. Brown,
chairman of the committee, will con,
fer with department headquarters.
Cars will leave for Haleiwa be,
tween nine and ten o'clock Sunday
morning assuring an early arrival for
luncheon, which will be served from
noon to two o'clock The Royal Haw-
allan Band will play while the guests
are at table and afterward, if they
choose they may take the glass bot
tom launches for view of the marine
gardens in the bay.
Sunday evening the delegates will
meet as a body for the first time at
Union services to be held in the Cen
tral Union Church. The Rev. David
Carey Peters, pastor of the Christian
church will be in charge of the ser.
vice."

School Session
Begins---OGcial
List OF Teachers

Last Monday morning, the early
morning run from Haiku to Wailuku
by auto was a more than usually
pleasant one. Evidently the young
idea had begun to stir early, for all
along the way, at each settlement
passed through, the roadsides were
dotted with important small persons,
all freshly starched and combed and
washed. needless to say, of all nat
ionalities and ages. The thing that
remained common to all was the
chatter, bright smiles and the general
air of anticipation which pervaded
each group, as they proceeded on
their way to renew, or in some cases
to begin, their acquisition of the learn
ing which Uncle Sam dispenses to all
resident in his domain. Those upon
whom will devolve the duty of elucida-
ton, in the official list, received this

CONGRESSATS SEA
OVER TIME FOR
ENDING SESSION

Congress doesn't know when It will
end the session. and though there
was some talk today OF winding up
the legislative program and quitting
late in September or by October l. II
was indefinite. In many quarters the
opinion prevails that Congress Will
not quit Washington at all while the
war continues, except for short re-
cesses.
One difficulty in the way of ad-
tournament is that new and impor-
tant proposed war legislation con-
tinues to come up for consideration
For instance. the war insurance bill,
which has been taken up by Secretary
McAdoo. and was formerly urged py
the Department of Commerce, prom
ises to consume a good deal OF time.
Another reason why Congress may
remain in session indefinitely Is that
many Of the leaders Of both parties
are reluctant to leave Washington
and reIinqu.sh the watch on the
executive departments, In view OF
the enormous increases OF authority
which the President and other e1ecu-
tive officials have been given.
The President has prevented crea-
ton of a committe on war expendi-
lures or on the conduct OF the war.
One effect OF this has been to make
a number OF members OF both bodies
more unwilling to end the session

WAR NURSES TOLD
TO ROUT BANDIT
BY KICK IN SHIN

CHICAGO. Aug. 2o.-"Tf you meet
a bandit don't get excited. Step
back-thus. Raise the right foot
rapidly and kick him in the shin

'Tn case there is not time for that
maneuver, step forward-thus-anc
grind the heel of your shoe into his
instep."
Fifty young women leaned for
ward eagerly in the Tower building
and registered appreciation of this
instruction, which sounded some
thing like a lesson to prospective
members of the police force.
The young women, however. were
members OF the Red Cross, and Com
modore wilbert Longfellw Of the
life-saving department, was lectur-
ing on "Self--defense."

Coal Dictator to
Be New Official of
Government Today

A coal dictator will be named
for the United States by Presi-
, dent Wilson within twenty-four
hours, officials say.
Coal operators and officers OF
the United Mine Workers, who
asked the President to name q
committee OF three to execute the
Pomerens coal amendment to the
food control law. were told that
a dictator with sole responsibility,
and not a committee, was the IA
vored plan.
The Presidents choice for this
tremendous power Is not known
Robert S. Lovett, priority head on
the war Industries board. and
chairman OF the Union Pacific
railroad directorate, Is favored by
the coal operators. William b.
Colver. q member OF the Federal
Trade Commission, is wanted by
the coal miners.

POLICE HORSES SAVED
FROM FIRE BY UNIFORM

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-!The rescue
of sixty-fve panIc-stricken horses
from the livery stable OF JACOB Wit
kin, 65 and 81 Rutgers place. which
was swept by fire last night. was at
tributed by Policeman August Seiden-
baden to the fact that his uniform
was recognized and trusted by two
former police horses in the stable.
When Seidenbaden had reached the
stable the FIRE had worked downward
from the top floor to the ground
floor. and John Wilson, a watchman,
was trying vainly to get the horses
out. Seidenbaden recognized two
former police horses and walked up
10 them. He said he knew that they
recognized his uniform, and when he
led one OF them willingly from the
stable the other followed, and behind
them the other horses.
