SILT REMOVED
FROM RESERVOIRS

Yesterdays rain had no effect what
ever on the water supply for the Nuu-
anu reservoirs. F. G. Kirchhoff, super.
intendent Of the Water and Sewers
Department, said this morning that
any rain that might iall for the next
two weeks would have little effect on
this supply, for the reason that the
tanks are being cleaned and disin-
fected. No. reservoir has already
been cleaned. Not much mud and ac-
tual filth was found, but a large de-
post of silt was removed, wheelbaE.
rows being used to cart this silt away.
Cleaners ere now at work on tank
No. 3, and it will be at least a week
before this tank is ready for new
water. No. 2 will be cleaned as soon
as No. 3 is finished. At present the
only one of the Nuuanu tanks that is
being used to any extent is No 4, at
the head Of the valley. The water
for this tank does not come from the
Nuuanu stream, but from the two
watersheds on either side of the tank.
1t is not believed that this water is
infected with the typhoid germ, but
all users of the Nuuanu water are
nrgod as nu-alv. preoartionarv

WOMAN QUITS JOB
RATHER THAN WORK
FOR PRO-GERMANS|

Patriotism first is the motto of a
Pendleton washwoman and she even
places it above her means of livIi-
hood. Rather than work for a family
that was almost openly disloyal to her
country, this woman gave up her job
though it was her bread and butter. -
The story has just come to light.
She had worked at stated intervals
for a long time for a well known local
family of German extraction. one OF
the few local German families that
have been credited with disIoyalty to
the country of their adoption. This
family had treated her kindly and
generously and her personal relations
with members of the family had been
only pleasant. However, since this
country entered the war, the German
born lady has been open in her cham
pionship of the kaiser and his kind and
her seditious remarks made in the
presence of the washwoman ranked
so much in the bosom of the latter
that she refused to work longer at the
house though she needed the money
she earned. In spite of the pleadings
of her employer. she refused to con-
tinue in her service. Il cannot serve
those who are disloyal to my country
she said.
