LETTER FROM D. C. PETERS
OF HONOLULU

In letter from Rev. D. C. Peters
a- Honolulu, we learn tha' the de-
claration q war is having its effect
over there as well as in the Uni.ed
States, Mr.. Peters says in part:
Yes, We hear war talk. That
is about all We do hear. We are
such small section OF the coun-
try, and are so far removed from
the rest that naturally q declaration
OF war would constitute prctty Sc
rious problem for US. If our enc emiFs s
would succeed in establishing them
selves in the Pacific Ocean, it would
cut us ost from our supplies, and
leave us in precarious predicament.
It is utterly impossible for Us to feed
our two hundred Thousand people
with present agricultural resources.
Almost our only crop is sugar.
Rather, that is the major crop, with
pineapple as a good second. They
grow some coffee, and a good deal O.
rice, but all of these things in such
comparatively small quaint les that
we could not hope to feed our peo-
pie. So naturally We are talking
war a good deal However, we are
not particularly uneasy for We do
not serioyusl fear that the enemies
Of the United States will be able
to establish themselves on this side
OF the world, though there have
been persistant rumors OF submarines s
in the Pacific whit operating bass
on the West coast d Mexico. That
may be fact, but the probabili Y
is that it is simply newspaper scare
heads.
We are already being affected
in the soaring prices of food sutffs,
and the scarcity in some of the
staples. Rice, for instance, has jump
ed to ten dollars a bag as against
three dollars and hale little
while ago.
And then, too, we are being a.
fected somewhat by our young men
who are connected in one way or
another with the militia, being call
ed to arms.
We are trying however, to meet
the emergency with as good a prep
aration as we can command.
With kindest good wishes, l am,
Cordially yours,
DAVID C. PET EkS.

On Tuesday the Sophomore Domes-
tic Science Glass most delight 'ully
entertained the High School faculty
at May Day luncheon. To bring
qlt the May Day idea, flowers and
blossoms were used in great prosus-
ion about the Domestic Art Room,
where the party was given. The
centerpiece, which ran almost the
whole length of the table was very
prettily suggestive Of the occasion.
It consisted of miniature lawn, in
the center oI<yhich was group OF
CAV maidens %c.ancing around rib
boz a May pole. Not far from them,
at one end of the table, was small
lake with several white swan float
ing upon IT. At the opposite end o.
the lawn, was located bed Of bright
loiored tulips and da'fodils. To fur
Sher, still more, the springtime at
mosphere, the menu was carried out
in a green and white color s7heme.
In order that the girls might gain
practice in both serving and enter
tanning, Miss Williams let to them
abe entire charge of the affair. Har-
riet Justice and Ruth Shamberger,
acting as hostesses, presided at the
long table. Those who served were
Hazel ShsSer, Veila Walker and
Mary Coblentz. Those in chsrge OF
Ae courses were Anna Anderson,
Pearl Christensen, Mabel Linn and
Alberta Wainwright. However, all
members OF the class had some part
In the preparation.

THOSE SCHOOL CREDITS.

The School Board agreed to give
credits to boys who were excused to
work, but on certain specified con-

met no one should be surprised to
find his credits withheld until the
school work is fully made up and
the examination tests passed at the
end OF the year.
