A SHELTER HOME OPENED.

AS a result Of the cooperation of church forces
against cominercialized vice. and the meetings of
few weeks ago. William f. Pietsch member of the
regeneration committee then appointed. has opened
a shelter home for women and children at S5l Sev
enth avenue. Kaimuki
This is the first concrete result Of the movement

came rs soon the yice-dstrict of Iwei closed

deal Of nonsense and some sense was written about
the situation which was at once seized upon, by the
supporters of c0mercialized vice. as an excuse TO
discredf the whole movement for cleanup OF Ho

eanized put their religious character and activ
tiles into the civic and moral problem, and Mr.
pietschs committee found at once that there we're
probably enough cases of bona fde need TO warrant
the project of a shelter home.
nv. Pietsch announces that clothing for children
at th,sllpme is badly needed. Such clothing may be
left az the home or afthe Gospel Mission corner of
King and Iiliha streets. Funds are also needed
and those willing to contribute should communicate

From my point Of view no such

"RTTHLESSNEsS' WITH THE TREES.

The prompt protests over the proposed cutting Of
the ironwoOd trees the highway TO IIalewa
should have been sufficient to let city officials con
tractors and public service corporations throughout
Honolulu know that destruction of ornamental trees
and shrubs is not popular in this city. Apparently
it wasn't for only the rapidfre action of citizens
who saw the beginning of destruction at kapiolani
park Wednesday and Thursday morning saved Il
splendid of ironwOOd trees there from the axe.
1T is stated that the contract between the Spalding
Construction Company and the city, for the paving
or Kaakaua avenue. says that the must be cut
down to make room for the improvements. 1t is
surprising indeed that the city should have en-
tered into such contract for there now appears to
have been no necessity of it. The Rapid Transit
company insists that the shifting of it's tracks does
rot make necessary the cutting of the trees.

Fix the Streets

Some time ago the New Mexican men
toned the streets of Santa Fe and suggest
ed that state c~onvicts could be secured to
work them.
The dry weather is said to be respon-
sible in large degree for the exeefable con-
dition of the unpaved streets and roads in
and around the city. But you can't rely
alone on good weather to maintain roads.
1t takes an occasional pick and shovel dur
ing the course Of a year. The average citf-
zen, unless he stops to cogitate, cannot re-
member when any noticeable work was
done on Santa Fe's thoroughfares. You
have to look it up in the Blue Book, or
Who's Who, or Twitchells History, or some
thing.
Is there no human way In which we can
have these notwithstanding avenues
smoothed down and filled up a little? There
were never so many cars in Santa Fe. They
are increasing all the time. Santa Fe is a
s'motourist'' center extraordinary. The
roads in Santa Fe's outskirts are the worst
they find, coming or going. In the city
the a%utomobilist has to grit his teeth and
hang onto the roof of the car. The condi-
ton of these. roads is fierce. Can't we do
a thing for them?
