THE USUAL PROBE.

The biennial investigation of the Boys Industrial
School, Waialee,l is about to be launched.
Each legislative session since a time when mem
cry OF ian runneth not to the contrary has probed
the industrial school The concrete results of these
Investigations have consisted of reports duly ncor
pcr;ted into the house or senate journals
in spite of numerous public Investigations, il re-
manned for private inquiry year anda half ago to
Establish the fact That the school Was badly adins7
tered and that grave abuses had grown up there.
These abuses exposed in the press led to a speedy
change in management. and, under a new Industrial
school commission the Waiaee institution has made
long strides The Star Bulletin believes that its adj
lninistration now is far better than at any other
time within the past five years.
Superintendent Frederick Anderson has proved
to be good official and has developed recreation
and education at the school without impairing the
discipline. In fact, the discipline appears better
row than under the preceding superintendent.
Representative kelekolio asks the house by rcso-
luton for an investigation into report that boys
at the school whipped with undue severity. This
same report was aired in Honolulu a few months
ago and then found baseess. Whipping was being
administered, but not cruelty And nasmuch as the
school showed definite progress the natural con-
clusion was that the superintendent gave whippngs
when whippings were necessary and when they ac.

FINDS SETTLEMENT
FOR SOUTH HIL0
LAND BILL FIGHT

Representative Nor1nSR r. Lyman,
|sftthef of House Bill 5S.f PROPOSING the
setting aside of certain lands in South
Hilo for school grounds poured oil on
the troubled waters this morning In
the senate ways and means commit
tee meeting when he introduced an
amendment to the measure.
This amendment, which takes into
consideration those persons who have
already placed homes on the proposed
lands, reads as follows. t1
Excepting spd y6eferring thefefrom
ali preference rights within this tract
which may be granted and approved
by the committee of public lands.
No vote was taken this morning.
though number of the members ex-
pressed willingness to vote favorably
upon the bill as amended. Senator
Desha. who will leave tomorrow morn
ing for Hilo, wished to defer action on
the bin until his return, and this re-
quest was granted.
President Chillingworth said today
that large number of protests from
residents of the district have poured
in upon him in mail today from Ha-
wall. One of these, letter from W.
A. Caryalho. who seems to be taking
the lead in the fight. brands the action
of the Hawaii county supervisors in
approving the bill as "a piece of gum.
shoe policy and unworthy of consider
alton"
Carl s. Carlsmith, attorney. ended
the hearing this morning with an elo-
quent appeal to turn the land over to
the school children of Hilo. He was OF
the opinion that preference rights OF
property owners should be protected,
but he also urged the value of the
place as a school campus.

NEITHER JOKING NOR BLrFFING.

This fact is penetrating the community, including
number Of erstwiie scofers: .-s..
The Chamber of Commerce means business in It's
support Of certain amendments TO the city charter
bill.
In the beginning some hum6rously inclined mem
beers of the community expected TO have lot of fun
with the Chamber of Commerce. Their attitude is
changing into respect and it will change still more
as the chamber goes along the line il has outlined
for action.
When joking failed TO wilt the chambers commit
tee of hundred; when opposition failed to defeat
them When blufing failed TO make them quit-then
an entirely new situation began to develop.
1t was realized that the Chamber of Commerce
is neither joking nor bluffng.
The chamber believes there are certain proposals
in the charter bill which are absolutely intolerabe
And it has come TO the point of taking very radical
and very unusual action to see that these proposals
do not pass.
The chambers stand was forced upon it by the
men at work the other side, the men behind the
convention charter. They were preparing to put
through charter absolutely condemned by the
joint civic committee representing the chamber, the
Civic Federation, the -id Club the Rotary Club and
the Commercial Club.
The admitted intention to pass the convention
charter virtually unchanged and saddle Honolulu
with political reactionarism and oPporunsm stir
cd the businessmen of Honolulu 10 unusual action.
They now demand that if the charter is changed
at ALL il be changed to support instead of to violate
The principles Of sound business administration
And they have taken certain, definite stand
which they propose to maintain.

CARING FOR HUMAN MACHINERY.

There was recently held mothers congress in
one Of the middle states and among the hundred and
one sprojects for the betterment of children" was
the question of proper food especially fer the grow

attempted to knock all the joy out of life by very
decidedly voting down pie of the ingredients
of the chIds midday meal Cheap broken candy

considered unfit for the stomach and mind respec.
lively of the growing child
But the chief article up for condemnation was the
lard pail. One mother declared that Something
ought to be done to the woman who permits her child
to use lard pail any other kind of covered pail
In which to carry his lunch to school, Continuing
her denuncation she said, 'he alright pals stand
all morning in a heated hat or cloak ro6m, and by
noon the food therein is not fit for human consump-
ton. Every school, whether in the city or country,
ought to furnish each child hot substantial lunch
This mother has the right idea. There is no one
thing growing, thriving, romping child needs more
than nourishing; wellcooked food. A cold, I'M
paiatable, unventiated lunch is very poor agency
for the restoring of bodily needs of child who has
been at his tasks all the forenoon.
Proper attention to feeding of stock and poultry
is one of farmers first considerations The engi
neer gives the most minute and exacting attention
to his machinery if he expects creditable results
from it.
