Inter-Island Sustained

The Supreme Count has rendered
a decision in favor of the Inter-
Island to the effect that the Public
Utilities Commission has no juris-
diction to regulate the passenger
and freight rates Of common carriers
by water in interstate commerce.
The only remedy lies with the
Federal shipping board, established
by act of Congress September 1915.
This case has been pending over
a year; a great many witnesses
were examined and thousands of
pages of evidence were taken.
Probably we may look for a raise
in rates at the beginning of the
year.

FOOD PLEDGE
CAMPAIGN COMING

Kauai, in line with other COM
munities all over the United States,
has already had Food Pledge
Week" during which many cards
were signed by willing housekeepers
and individuals who are anxious to
do all in their power to support the
Government in its great effort to
conserve food. These cards were
forwarded to Washington.
Our Territorial Food Commission
is now issuing cards to the same
purpose, which will be kept on file
locally. These pledges have already
been circulated in Honolulu and
have now reached the other islands.
They will be handled on Kauai
by the Women's Subcommittee on
Food Conservation, as they have
been in Honolulu At meeting
of this committee, held in Lihue on
Saturday, December 18th, it was
decided that, on account of the
Christmas season and the Red Cross
Drive, the campaign for signatures
for the Food Pledge should not be
undertaken until the beginning of
the new year. The first two weeks
in January, from the first to the
fourteenth. will therefore be de-
voted by the committee to the cir
culation of these pledges. The
chairman in each district has charge
of arrangements within her Terri
tory, which will be divided into
sections and covered by teams.
which will make house to house
visits with the pledges. Cards have
been printed in both English and
japanese. 1t is expected that there
will be a large number of sigma
lures secured, as the Food Conser-
vstion movement is well under
stood on this island, and in support.
ing it each individual has an op-
portunity to do BIT" for his
country.
The district chairmen are as fol-
lows: Miss Christopherson, Mrs.
Myers, Mrs. Semi, Mrs. Broad
bent, Mrs. Waterhouse, Miss Has
tie, Mrs. Hodge, Mrs. Brandt.

Red Cross Christmas Service

Last Sunday being Red Cross
Sunday it was duly observed as
such by the Lihue Union Church
The church was beautifully dec
grated in Red Cross colors with a
Red Cross flag over the pulpit--the
work of Mrs. w. n. Stewart.
The music was particularly fine,
two Christmas Anthems by the
choir-the best work on the whole
perhaps that the choir has done,-
and a fine solo by Mrs. Rice, as
well as good strong general singing
Of the Christmas hymns.
Mr.. Lydgate gave a brief account
of the salient features of the Red
Cross work, and Mr.. Patterson,
chairman of the Red Cross Drive
committee, made a strong plea in
the interests Of the Drive now on,
both for membership and for sub
scriptions.
Mr.. Lydgate then proposed that
the Lihue Union church should, as
a church, take out Patron Mem
bership and that the collection then
to be taken go to that end.
The collection was then taken
and amounted to $50. 80 which has
since been made up to the requisite
800 for Patron Membership.

Lihue District Court News

In the matter of Manuel Amorin
and Amorin Carreira of Hanama-
ulu charged with assault and bat
terry, Manuel was fined s25.OO and
s1.00 cost and given a good stiff
lecture by the Court. The charge
against Amorin, who judging by
his name should be a peaceful per-
son, was dropped at request of the
prosecution.
Yata, Koso, convicted to assault
and sentenced to six months in Jail
besides furnishing bond in the sum
Of $3.50 90 to keep the peace against
whomsomever, evidently thought
he had not received a square deal,
and came into Court again and
appealed his case to next term Of
Court of the Fifth Circuit Court.

Bas Relief Of Judge Hardy

A fine bronze bust bas-relief Of
the late Judge Jacob Hardy has
been received and will be mounted
in the Circuit Court Room.
1t represents the Judge in his
prime, along about middle life or
later, and is no doubt a good por-
trait, though not quite as most Of
us knew him. He was a man of
fine character, and an ornament to
the Bench; we are glad to see him
hOnored.

Birthday Party

Miss Martha Wolters entertained
her little friends to the number of
about 20, Friday afternoon at a
Birthday party at Kealia. The
smaller children played games suit
ed to their taste and age, while the
older ones went in swimming in the
fine swimming tank and played
tennis-Very delicious refreshments
were served about the middle Of the
afternoon. They were all very glad
that Martha had a birthday and
they hope she will have another as
soon as possible.

CHRISTMAS TREE

The finest thing ever given in

The novelty of the affair; the fine
large Christmas tree beautifully
ornamented and lighted; the effec-

a very festive appearance; the holi-
day fragrance of cedar boughs; and
last and most impressive the great
crowd made it a remarkable oc-
casion, even before the program be-

CHRISTMAS AMONG
THE CHILDREN
Lihue Union

Lihue Union
There was a lawn party for the
smaller children of Lihue Union
Sunday School last Tuesday after
noon with appropriate children S
games with prizes and no end of a
good time of simple kind. By
unanimous consent of all concerned
presents were dispensed with this
year in order that one little French
orphan might be supported.
Aakukui Sunday School
A special treat was given this lit
tie Sunday School recently organiz-
ed under the auspices Of the Lihue
Union church. Friday afternoon a
small party went out there properly
loaded for the occasion. In res
ponse to the ringing of a dinner
bell a band of children to the num-
Der of thirty-fve or SO gathered in,
together with a number of the
mothers, and participated in SIM
pie children's games on the lawn,
the adults enjoying it quite as much
as the children. Following this
they were all marched into the lit
tie chapel where ice-cream cornu-
copias were distributed, and finally
by the kindness of Mrs. Rice "a
Christmas bag was given to each
regular attendant, said bag contain
ing the usual Christmas dainties in
the way of nuts, raisins, apples,
candy, etc.
Most of them had never seen such
treasure trove before and looked on
the bags with mingled awe and re-
joicing. No one of them ventured
to open his bag but made a bee line
for home, hugging his treasure and
looking back furtively for fear some
one was after him to take it away.
Lihue Hospital
There was a goodly number Of
children in this institution who
were collected in the rear lanai on
Friday evening in readiness for a
visit from Santa Claus. In unoffi-
cial character Santa Claus, in the
person Of Mr.. Lydgate, gave them a
lantern exhibition showing Bible
pictures and scenes i'll Norway, Scot
land, Hawaii, etc. A beautifully
lighted tree was then revealed and
the real Santa Claus in appropriate
costume came on the scene and dis
tributed packages of nuts, candy
and other Christmas dainties.
Koloa Sunday School
Koloa had its Sunday School
Christmas Exercises Sunday Morn
ing with a goodly attendance, the
Laval Branch School cooperating.
By common consent, in keeping
with the times, the usual Christmas
presents were dispensed with and a
simple Christmas Cantata was pre-
sented instead.
This was exceedingly well render
ed.
Following this the various classes
did their part and finally little bags
of Christmas goodies were dispen-
sed. The church was very tasteful
ly decorated for the occasion.
Mrs. Henry Blake and Mrs.
Waterhouse deserve special credit
for most of what was done

MEETING OF THE
CHAMBER OF Com.

The regular December meeting
of the Chamber OF Commerce met
at Lihue on Thursday afternoon
with the president in the chair. 1t
being ascertained that quorum
was present, the meeting was called
to order and the minutes of the last
regular and two intervening special
meetings were read and approved.
Correspondence was read by the
secretary from the Inter Island in
regard to the steamer service.
Recognizing the unsatisfactory
character of the present semi-week-
ly service of the Kinau, the freight
passenger-mail committees Of the
chamber had outlined four day
service, which however the Inter-
Island did not think was feasible.
Mr. Crawford suggested that as
the present four year, star route.
contracts would expire in July, it
might be well to he prepared with
plans and suggestions which would
give us more flexible Island mail
service for the next period. AS it
was now, there was definite fixed
service for certain days and when
ever there was a change of schedule
OF the steamers we ran up against
the Island mail program.
Mr.. Wishard outlined a plan by
which we should have two steamers
for this side of the Island each max
ing four day trips alternating with
each other, thus giving us a steam
er each way every two days, as fol.
lows:
Leaving Kauai Tuesday, Thurs
day and Saturday and returning
Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday.
This would give the steamers time
to do their work, and would give
Kauai an excellent service. The
only objection was that they would
have to leave Honolulu Sunday
evening.
Mr.. Lydgate thought that this
was a very commendable scheme,
since it would guarantee a frequent
service, and regular service; ar
rivals and departures every week
the same; a rotating service would
get people all mixed up.
He moved that the secretary COM
municate with the Inter Island pro-
posing this plan for their consid-
Grafton. The motion was carried.
Mr.. Wishard moved that the Sec
retarv notify the proper postal
authorities of the urgent request Of
this chamber for a daily mail SER
vice to Hanalei. Carried.
Mr.. Jacobs inquired in regard to
the status of the Electric Light
franchise for Koloa. 1t had been
granted some time ago, and that
nothing was being done about it.
Mr.. Wishard explained that Mr..
Jacobs no doubt referred to the Wal
ahi franchise, which covered Koloa
as well as Lihue. so that in the event
that it should prove to be desirable
to extend to Koloa it might be done
without legal difficulty. This fran
chise however is not exclusive, and
not mandatory.
Mr.. Crawford thought that the
chamber ought to take out patron
membership in the Red Cross So
ciety and after a little discussion
the secretary was authorized to secure
such membership in connection
with the present drive"
Attention was called by the presi-
dent to the ordinance calling for a
Red Cross collection at every meet
ing of the chamber; this has been
overlooked at two or three of the
recent meetings, and would now be
taken. 1t aggregated twenty -one
dollars.
There being no farther business
the meeting adjourned
