SALVATION ARMY
BAND ON KAUAI

The Life Saving Salvation Army
Band completed its Season by the
Tour of Kauai, following that OF
Hawaii and Maui, during the last
week.
Landing Wednesday morning at
Waimea they were entertained by
Mrs. Cox during the day and gave
one Of their unique sacred enter
tainments in the evening, at the
Waimea hall, which was crow ded
for the occasion.
During Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday they were the guests of Mr..
Alex. McBryde at Laval, where, on
, the lawn, and in the sea, and on
the shore, they literally " had the
time of their lives"
Thursday evening they played
at Lihue, Friday at Eleele, and
Saturday at Koloa. mostly to crow
ed houses and enthusiastic au-
diences.
Sunday morning they conducted
the service at the Lihue Union
Church, and in the evening gave a
sacred concert at the Tip Top.
While in Lihue they were quar-
tered at the Armory, which with it's
equipment of cots, blankets, etc.
was placed at their disposal by the
courtesy of Dick Oliver. While
there, as elsewhere, they took care
of their own commissariat, as they
were abundantly able to do.
Monday afternoon the children
of the Lihue Union church gave
them a reception on the church
lawn and inducted the Band girls
into the mysteries of base ball and
Dry, ory, outs in free," also
showed them how to get away with
soda water and sandwiches.
Tuesday they were the guests of
Mrs. Brandt and other Waimea
ladies on an auto tour of the Island.
They had also been invited to spend
the day and lunch at Papalinahoa,
by Mr.. and Mrs. S. w. Wilcox,
but alas there was no time to get it
in.
They left by the Kinau more
than pleased with the treatment
they had received, and with the
assurance that Kauai is alright,
even though it hasn't quite all
gone Salvation Army yeti"

The Civic Convention

Arrangements have been perfect.
ed by j j. Belser, chairman of the
civic conventions subcommittee
on transportation, which will land
Kauai delegates to the convention at
Honolulu on the morning of Satur-
day the fifteen of September, which
is Regatta Day, and take them
home Tuesday night, after the final
banquet at the Moana hotel.
Just when the Tuesday night
boat will sail depends on how good
a representation Kauai sends to the
convention. The Inter-Island Steam
Navigation company, while willing
to do everything in its power to
oblige and assist the convention,
does not feel it ought to inconveni-
ence majority of its Tuesday night
passengers for the pleasure of the
minority.
/ But if Kauai sends the delegation
expected by the central committee,
the shoe will be on the other foot.
Then the delegates will be in the
majority and the boat will be held
until II O'Clock. Raymond C.
Brown, chairman Of the central
committee, says he expects Kauai
to send forty. One estimate of
seventy-five has reached him, but
he wants to be on the safe side.
Whichever proves to be the cor
rect figure, it is certain that this
years convention will be the best
attended the Islands have ever
known. Maui and Hilo both are
counted on to send forty delegates
each, while from Kohala and Kona
on the Big Island dozen more are
expected. From Honolulu the re-
presentation will be ninety.
Provision will be made this year
for limited number of members at
large to cover some persons who,
for one reason or another are not
members Of the constituent organi-
zations and who are yet interested
in Civic Convention matters Such
persons can receive the necessary
credentials by communicating with
Raymond G. Brown, Secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce, Homo
lplu.

The Return Of the Weoweo

Every Hawaiian that is the least
of fishermen, and every Hawaiian
is that, is very much excited just
now over the appearance of the
"weoweo" on our coasts, and every
path thereto is lined with fishermen,
and fsher-maidens too, with rod
and line, in the late afternoon wend-
ing their way to the best point of
vantage for fish; and later in the
evening they come trooping back,
fairly laden down with the catch;
and there is -feasting and reioic-
ing in many simple home far into
the night.
The "weoweo" is a little red fish
about three inches long. which when
broiled or fried are ono loa, y
delicious. They are caught with
hook and line, and though small
they are fine fishing. as they bite
greedlly; you can pull them out in
a steady string like belt conveyor,
otter they once get started; but
when they once take notion to
stop, it is pau, no more!
In Hawaiian story the weoweo is
a prophetic fish that always por-
tends the death of an alii" or
high chief it never fails; and there
are all kinds of interested specula-
tions as to who it will be this time.
Owing to the dearth of aliis in these
haole days some think that it means
the downfall of Governor Pinkham.

Take Salts to
Flush Kidneys
Eat Less Meat if You Feel Back
achy or Have Bladder
Trouble.

Meat forms uric acid, which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
1 relieve them like you relieve your
bowels ;removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel dull mis-
cry in the kidney region, sharp pains
in the back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you to
set up two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts
is inexpensive, harmless and makes
delightful effervescent lithia water
drink which millions of men and wom-
en- take now and then, thus avoid
ing serious kidney and bladder dis
eases. 1O|
