Historic Wedding Bell

Judge Dickey returned about a
week ago from his trip to the Coast,
whittier he went to participate in
the Golden Wedding celebration of
his parents IN Oakland.
He comments with enthusiasm
on the profusion of flowers with
which that event was celebrated and
mentions in particular the wedding
bell, the woven-wire basis of which
was used years ago for the golden
wedding of his grandparents, Father
and Mother Alexander on Maui,
and than later for the similar oc-
casion of his uncle and aunt, DR..
and Mrs. w. d. Alexander.
Doubtless the Judge has his eye
on that same bell for his own gold
en- wedding, by and by, in which
case he will have to be making a
move pretty soon.

enjoyable recital last Wednesday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. E. A 1t.

sohn as well as other well kno wn

solo. Those taking part were Mrs.
E. A. Knudsen, Mrs. R. Oliver,

Big Sporting Event For Base
Ball Fans

An All-Star Interscholastic Base
ball Team, under the direction of
William E. Miles, the manager of
the st. Louis Club, will visit Kauai
during the week Of July 4th.
Charles r. Rice and John Fer
nandez are looking after the finan-
cial and athletic end of the affair
and real treat for baseball enthu-
siasts is guaranteed. An effort was
made to get the st. Louis Cham
pionship Team to make the trip but
some members of the team could
not come at that time, so Manager
Miles has gotten an aggregation of
the best players from the Honolulu
schools, which he believes will make
every baseball fan stand on his toes
and forget his troubles.
The team will consist of eight
players, three pitchers and coach.
Most of the players Will be from St.
Louis College.

meet the P. A. c., which now holds
the Island championship in baseball

On the same day. at 2 O'Clock,
the visitors will play against an All
Kauai team, which is roputed to be
of major league ,al;i'er
On Thursda7 aIesnoon, at $3.50
O'Clock, the K.ca. digh School will
meet the All-Students at Lihue.
Baseball has been neglected for
sometime on this Island and it is
hoped that this effort will revive the
old enthusiasm for this popular
sport.
The lineup of the teams will be
given in later issue of the Garden
Island.

There were great doings last Fri

on which occasion Miss Peabody,
president of the Parent Kaahumanu

sistance of delegates from the other

Holt, secretary; Mrs. Dias, treas
ury; Mrs. VIM. Ellis, auditor.
Following the installation exer-

emphasing the worthy aims of the
society along the lines of unity, har-
mony, and charity, and commend
ing to their favor the motto of the
society. "Hele imua me Ike kauli-
Ike, - forward with justice.
A generous palma" followed the
meeting, which, as always found an
enthusiastic response on the part of
all present.
Later in the day the distinguish
ed visitors were personally conduct
ed to the Kukuiolono park, as the
guests of Mrs. A. S. Wilcox ;Satur-
day they spent in Waimea in the
interests of the society. And Mons

Mokihana Picnic

The Mokihana Society gave a
picnic at Kalapaki last Saturday,
in which all the elements of success
were combined to make it most
delightful affair. Some of those
who came early, especially children,
enjoyed a bath before lunch, and
they, more even than the rest, were
ready for the generous lunch, that
combined the various specialties
and delicacies of each lady,-and
some men, as witness the sheriffs
cocoanut candy.
Later there were childrens games
with prizes. so universal that there
were scarcely children enough to go
round.
Kalapaki is an ideal place for
such an affair; the weather was
fine; the guests congenial; fine all
round.

A Farewell

The Misses Moore and Betten-
court were given a farewell picnic
at the picnic grounds-by -the-sea,
Hanamaulu, by Mr.. and Mrs. A.
Nobriga. last Sunday. At about
nine O'Clock the guests motored to
the grounds, and, it being rather
warm, old Neptune claimed them
for the morning. Games were also
INDUCED IN, and they all sat down
to a very delightful luncheon pre-
pared by the hostess. When eve
ming drew on, all wended their way
homeward, all having spent a most
delightful day.

An Amateur Convention

A sort of Junior Convention OF
the Filipino ministry on the Island
was held the other day at the Y
NJ. C. A. rooms in the Tip Top
Building, comforting with M r.
Loomis and Mr.. Lydgate in regard
to summer work among the Fiipinos
of the Island.
Five ministers and icentiates
were present, representing the vari-
GUS Filipino communities all the
way from Makaweli to Kilauea.
Plans are laid for an evangelistic
campaign of the Island, with musi-
cal and pictorial attractions that
will surely draw among the Filipi-
nos. For initiative, intelligence and
earnestness they certainly made a
GOOD showing.

Home Coming Children

A goodly troop of school children
returned last week from Kameha-
meha and Mills schools, and an
other band will be home this week
from Punahou and the Honolulu
Military school.
The popular enthusiasm for field
and garden farming has more or less
reached these young people, and
many of them are finding work in
the! fields and gardens on planta-
tions or about their own homes.
Even though their labor shall not
prove to be very valuable intrinsi-
cally, it will at any rate be a
valuable experience for the boys
themselves: y

District Nurse In Prospect

The public has learned, more or
less in a general way, of the plan to
establish District Nurse in Lihue
under the auspices of the Mokihana
Society, and subject to the supervi-
sion of a special committee of that
organization.
The mission of this nurse will be
to enter as far as may be feasible
into the homes of the simple people
of the community, especially where
there are families, and help them
by timely advice and instruction in
matters of sanitation, the care and
feeding of small children, the treat
ment or simple ailments etc.
We understand that a sufficient
fund has been subscribed to guaran-
tee the venture for a year, with the
assurance t h at farther support
will be forthcoming if the expert
ment proves a success.
1t would surely seem as if such
service, tactfully, rendered could
hardly fail to be most acceptable
as well as most valuable, and that
therefore the enterprise must be a
success. 1t certainly deserves the
hearty support of all public spirited
people.

kauai TEACHING
STAFF FOR 1918

Below is published the list OF
teachers for Kauai for next year as
appointed by the Commissioners in
Honolulu week before last. Super
intendent Kinney has the following
to say in regard to the appoint
ments:
"These appointments were made
subject to the condition that all are
tentative and no contracts are to be
issued until after the final grade
examinations are over, when con-
tracts shall be issued as soon as
possible, except IN cases where
marked inadequacy of the examina-
ton results or violation of the rules
make it appear best to withhold
action until the next meeting OF the
Commissioners; also excepting all
cases where teachers are to attend
Summer School or take examina-
tions. No teacher who has been
instructed by the Board of Exami-
ners to take the teachers examina-
tions and who fails to try to do so,
shall be reappointed.
The list of appointments includes
a number which are tentative for
various reasons, among them being
the fact that all the Counties have
not as yet indicated where they will
be able to erect new buildings. For
this reason, it is possible that some
teachers who have been assigned to
places, with the expectation that
new buildings are to be provided
there, may be transferred to other
schools in case the Counties fail to
provide the rooms expected.
You will note that there are still
some vacancies. Some of these have
practically been filled. but the ap-
pointments cannot be announced
for one reason or another

Mokihana Annual Meeting

The annual meeting. of this
popular society for the season was
held Wednesday June 13 with Mrs.

lates a study of Home Economics

Domestic Science, to be provided
for by the College of Hawaii. The
four other meetings of the season
will be devoted to Music, along the
lines so successfully followed this
year.

Go to the Volcano

Recent visitors to the Volcano are
enthusiastic boosters" of the trip.
The fine invigorating climate, the
various items of interest outside of
the crater itself, and the wonderful
display of fire in Halemanu-mau,
never finer than now, allmore than
justify the trip.
Furthermore, by taking a round
trip ticket, including all expenses.
very material economics may be ef-
fected over the old go-as-you-please
rates And as yet anyway there is
plenty of room at the Hotel, though
later in the season they are likely
to be pretty well filled up. And
you can do it all in a week from
here if you have to; but its vastly
better to stay awhile.
Now is the time to go.

Au Revoir Teachers

There will be a large exodus of
teachers during the next week or so,
some to their homes on the Main
land, not to return, ana some to
spend the vacation elsewhere.
Those who are leaving for good
we are sorry to lose; those who re-
turn next year we will welcome
with pleasure; and our best wishes
go with all for pleasant and in
vigorating vacation.

Stamp Duties Pau

Public attention is called to an
important Bill passed at the last
session of Legislature repeating the
statues which in days gone by have
imposed stamp duties on business
documents such as deeds, leases,
mortgages, bonds, etc,
/ This is .an important and rather
Surprising new departure. In these
days of increasing taxes in all direc-
$iGns, it is refreshing to learn OF
any reduction, and we fail to under
stand how the Territory made any
such slip.

is hoped that the public will show
their appreciation by packing the
house wherever the picture is
shown.
