We have had pageants for states cities, colleges and many other things. It's a great way to celebrate, but it took the Woman's Missionary union to stage beautiful missionary pageant at the Southside Baptist chuch last night.
 It was conducted by Mrs. William Little Brown. nee Miss Leona Plosser' who is a graduate of the Emerson school, and a most capable directress. Under her direction a really beautiful and striking pageant was staged that will be long remembered by the large audience who witnessed it.
 The pageant was founded on history of which every Baptist is proud. It centered around Adoniram Judson, the famous missionary, the father of pr. Edward Judson who for years was pas tor of the great Judson Memorial church, New York city, built in honor of one of Americas greatest scholars, statesmen and missionaries, and whose heroic labors are part of the worlds richest legacies of religious and hu- manitarian endeavor.
 In the year 1910 two young divinity students, Adoniram Judson and Luther Rice, came to Bradford, Mass, to a meeting of the church fathers of the Congregational church. They came to present a petition, asking the advice and help of the fathers in new en : terprise, which was preaching the gos- pei of Christ to the heather.
 At the meeting a board was formed for the purpose of sending out mis- sionaries to distant regions, so Judson and Rice were promised the support of the fathers.
 After the meeting several of the men went to MT. Hasseltines home for din- ner There Judson met Ann Hasseltine and Harriet Atwood. He fell in love with Ann and two years later they were married.
 One February afternoon, after re ceiving the benedition of the fathers and bidding farewell to their friends the little band composed of Mr. and Mrs. Judson (Ann Hasseltine), MT and Mrs. Samuel Newell (Harriet Atwood) Luther Rice, Gordon Hall and Samuel Mott, Jr sailed away to distant lands Two women were among those who first went out in this service for Christ
 The following year Luther Rice re- turned to America. ksbury, the great Methodist bishop, is known as "the prophet of the long road" for he trav- eled over the Atlantic seaboard on horseback with saddle bags but Rice is known among Baptists as the pio- neer, who returned to the United States, and made trips in a gig GOV

AmWse mGnGs
At the Lyric

At the Lyric
 Those seeking high class and attractive
 entertainment will find the new Lyric
 bill presented Thursday evening to ca
 pacity audiences one of the most de- lghtful vaudeville bills of the season
 From beginning to end there is meritori- ous entertainment and the programme of fers both variety and novelty of amuse-
 ment
 The Hawaiian act on the bili-Princess ! Mapella and company--is the best Ha- waiian musical act ever presented at the Lyric. The musicians are superior to
 those who have gone before on Lyric programmes, and they render selections that bring spontaneous and vociferous ap- plause from the audience. There are many Hawaiian acts on the stage, but the one on the new Lyric bill excels all shown here.
 A better quartet is not in vaudeville than the Primrose Four, and they have
 used excellent judgment in the selection
 of their programme. They sing the songs that please and the harmony of the quar- tet is perfect. The singing of many of the old time melodies feature the work of this clever quartet.
 Dorothy Granville assisted by James Rule proves one of the feature acts of the Dill In types O1 women MISS Granville interpolates various feminines. as she has seen them--on the shady and on the sunny side of life. For selections are in the most part humorous, but occa- sionally she sounds a deeper note. These impressions of the various types are set to music and are narrated in song mu- sical recitation and pantomime. Miss Granville is one of the most attractive women of the stage and in her vehicle has a subject which is very broad in it's appeal and which is most painstakingly rendered
 Andru Lewis and Helen Norton are an- other bright and entertaining spot on the programme. They present 'In Those 1 Days" and are billed as promoters Of i cheerfuness. Lewis stands about six I feet in height and Helen Norton is d l mere mite of femininity. The contrast in l their statues is most effective and com mands attention even before the pair l open their mouths. "In Those Days" is l a pleasing combina ton of chatter song and dance. Lewis is a comedian of dis l tinctive personality and Miss Norton is | a breezy little ingenue and both are eX- l celent dancers.
 l Polzin brothers entertain in an attrac- 1 acrobats falling in every conceivable ! manner and bouncing back on their feet l like so much rubber
 l The Mutual reel fife pictures are hghly l entertaining. The new Lyric bill is one 1 of the best entertainments recently of l fered in Birmingham.

OF
HILO TAKE STEP
TO SAVE WATER
Residents Urged to Waste Nc
More Than Necessary; Sit
uation Is Alarming
'so.ri.I s,.t,brrrs,,p Corr..uond.n,.>

HlLO, Aug. 22-In view OF the
present shortage OF water in HiIO
Samuel Kauhane. chairman and exc
cuuve officer OF the Hawaii board
Of supervisors, has issued the follow.
ing instructions to water users:
i Hereafter no irrigation with city
water will be allowed in HilO.
All persons, firms, corporations
and users Of water are hereby mott,
fled to have alIeNeaky and defective
plumbing repaired and put in good
order. No continuous flowing taps for
any purpose whatever will be allowed.
''Violators OF the above regulations
will have their water cut off.
Owing to the present scarcity Of
water all persons are requested to
aid in the conservation of the supply
and to economic in every possible
way"
Unless Hilo has a good solid down
pour OF rain during the coming week
there is no telling what inconven-
fences and hardships the people of
this city may be put to. At the pres
ent time the situation is one of grave
alarm and to relieve the trying state
OF affairs, as much as possible, every.
one is asked TO aid in conserving the
water supply.
On Wednesday night last there was
no water in the local reservoir at all,
and at 6 O'Clock Thursday morning
there was barely four feet Endeavors
have since been made to direct wa
ter from a nearby spring into the
reservoir, but this scheme has so far
met with little success.
The situation is a precarious one.
Never in the history of the islands
has Hawaii experienced such a scar
city Of water. Not only are nearby
streams bone-dry, but the electric light
company cannot get sufficient water
to run its plant with any degree of
efficiency, and lights throughout the
town both Friday and last night were
DINNER than usual.
To relieve the situation as much as
possible, in case Of fire, the Hilo Gas
Co. has offered the county use of its
pumping plant providing the use of oil
fuel and engineers wages are paid !
IL the plant 10 made use of.

BOARD WASTES TWENTY
MINUTES IN ARGUING .
OVER MINOR POINT

For over 20 minutes Tuesday night
the board of supervisors argued over
the minor point Of whether a request
from the u. S. army authorities to be
allowed to run a spur railroad across
King street to the new ordnance de-
partment site should be passed d.
rectly by the board or first referred
to the road committee and attorneys

Supervisor E. A. Mott-Smith took
the latter stand and Supervisor c.
H. Arnold the former, and in the end
prevailed upon the other members
to vote with him. Mr.. Mott-Smith
thought Mr.. Arnolds method was the
wrong way to go about it and Mayor
Fern sided with him.

before she comes fresh. Three or
four days before calving the COW is
given a dose of salts with a little gin
ger. Another dose is also given five
or six hours after the calf is born. A

KEEP MILK COOL AND CLEAN
Warm Weather Is Trying on Dairymen
but More Especially on Women
keep Vessels Clean.

The season is rapidly approaching
when greater care must be taken of
milk. Warm weather is trying on the
dairyman, but more especially on the
farmers wife, who must care for the
milk from a few cows. Preparations
should therefore be made to keep the
milk cool and clean.
The facilities for keeping milk on
the average farm are very inadequate.
Not enough cool space is available for
the average farm woman, hence she
has difficulties in saving the milk and
ripening the cream evenly.
In the first place, the milk vessels
are important. They should be of the
right kind, with no seams in the pans,
pals, etc., to harbor germs. There
should be plenty Of vessels and they
should be kept scrupulously clean,
aired, steamed and summed occasion.

A refrigerator is almost a necessity

In an experiment conducted by tn

weeks. Lot 1 received silage alone for
roughage during period 1 and 3 and

2. and lot 2 received hay and silage
during periods 1 and 3 and silage dur
Ing period 2.
The milk yield decreased with both

was less with silage and hay. When
silage and hay for roughage followed
silage alone there was a slight increase
