GERMAN SECRET
SERVICE GOES
AROUND WORLD
Hawaii Hochi Tells of Japan's
Policy With Reference to
That of Germans
tBy the Editor Of Hawaii HoiIU)


The German secret service system
is extensive and far-reaching In scope !;
and one can not but help being amazed
at its fauitless organization. There Is
not place Throughout the world
where there Is not connecting link
OF this vast system; and there is not
a place where its effectiveness can
not cover.
in almost all the important cities
of the world there are hotels con-
trolled by this organization. some oil
which are veritable palaces fit for the
German emperor himself. These hotels
are invariably the headquarters OF
secret service agents. Petrograd
Hotel. in the capital OF Russia, and the
Astoria of Paris are OF this class.
a Scattered throughout the
world Germany has in operation over
twenty hotels of this nature. New
York also has a skyscraper for the
same purpose
The above is an extract from an ar
ticle by Sauo Tsurumi which appeared
in the January number of the "Taiyo
issued in Toxic This, however, Is only
uncoyering an almost insignificant por.
ton of the German plot in the war
now waging in Europe. From time to
time plots of this nature have been
coming TO the surface, and some OF US
become wonder-struck as the German
war schemes become more apparent,
Some OF us are prone to applaud the
Germans for their ingenuity; while
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-03-03

others denounce them for their devil
ish craftiness.
The Hochi does not pretend To judge
between the two points OF view; u
does, however. regret that there could
be some amongst us who can not see
world conditions as they really are.
The intrigue ~ which Germany
sought to tempt Japan into betraying
America Is a thing that should have
been anticipated long before II was
PATCHED. Greater intrigues may be al
this moment In process OF Matching
in South America and in southern
Asia. II is about time that we awake
10 the ingenuity of the German.
Although the federal government
knew OF the late plot thirty days ago,
she. without the least ado. proceeded
TO make preparations to meet what
ever contingency that may arise from
#. Her calm attitude is worthy Of
emulation.
Fer TIE benefit OF the many who
suffer from supeTstitious fear OF the
Japanese we may add that Japan is
neither the faithless nation which
would violate her obligations in the
face of changed fortunes; nor yet the
coYardly nation which would take adj
vantage of Americas hour OF adversely
to press her point, or strike, as II
we're, from the back The Turtle Bay
incident alone, in which Japan was
suspected of purchasing land, prelimi-
nary to invading the United States,
should be proof positive that Japan is
a land which holds integrity priceless.

FIREMEN GIVEN
SPOOL TABLES

Chief Thurston and his men of
the fire department are happy. They
have been presented with pool and
billiard tables for the fire stations,
and the men are clicking off runs
briskly now when they are not on
active duty.
Some time ago residents OF the
Makiki section, in appreciation of the
work of the firemen, got a pool
table for the Makiki hall. Now the
board of fire underwriters has con-
tributed $40 for the purchase of
tables and equipment for three other
stations and the tables have already
been installed Secretary F. A. Bech.
ert of the board wrote the letter to
Fire Chief Thurston notifying him of
the gift
1--WE wish through the Star-Bulle-
tin to express our hearty apprecia-
ton of this generosity" said Chief
Thurston today. I'VE hope to start
a tournament between the various
fire stations after the men have prac-
tised up. It is great help to the
service TO give the men some amuse-
ment of this sort in idle hours, help
ing to make the life of a fireman,
which often gets monotonous, attrac-
tive"

EDUCATION OF THE
 STATES FOREIGN BORN
One of the Most important Tasks of
 Evening Schools.

The committee on foreign born pop u1ation of the Connecticut state coun- cil of defense in the belief that the teaching of English to non-English- speaking foreign born men and wom- en is one of the most important tasks of the evening schools of the state, and of great value in accom- pliShing g the Americanization of aliens, is urg- ing that more attention be paid to this phase of education in Connecticut. The committee has found that "A towns and cities maintain evening schools and it recommends the following i'm provements:
 1. The establishment of evening schools in many towns where none now exist
 ?. Increased attendance at existing schools.
 3. More efficient teaching of English.
 4. That a definite share of atten- ton and time be given to the work of Standardization.
 Letters embodying these suggestions have been sent to the superintendents of schools in the cities and towns where eTening schools now exist. They also advise that the war bulletins pre- pared by the council be used in English courses. The bulletins are printed in English, Italian, Polish and German and have the following titles:- The Presidents Advice to Citizens ana Aliens, The Presidents Call for Co., operation, The Duty of the Alien in the Present Crisis. The Duty of Ger man Born Men and Women in the Present Crisis, the last named an ar tfcle by Otto H. Kahn.

INFORMAL MUSICALE FOR WAR RELIEF FUND Delightful Evening at Home of Mrs.
 Edward Hunt

An informal musicale for the war relief fund of the society of the given by Miss Olive Eugenia Hunt at the piano, assisted by Miss Helen Royce, violin and Eben Learned. eel 10, at the home of Mrs. Edward Hunt, most delightful evenings entertain ment. Assisting were Eben Learned, Jr. and Miss Constance Learned, who, with Miss Marion Royce dressed as America, distributed the progranmes which were contributed by q member of the D. A. R.
 The emblem of the D. A. R a spin ming wheel and distaff was a con spicuous feature of the decorations as well as was the charter of the chapter. The programme opened with the singing of two verses of America The trio Of piano, violin and cello gave two Marie Stella by Greig, and for the sec ond group Paradis Pastel Minuet and for an encore, Rubensteins Melody in F. The trio was very well balanced, the individual instruments heins sub ordinated to each other and blending into very pleasing whole. The se- lect1ons were very we'll chosen, being very melodioUS and distinctly lovely The Melody in Fevas perhaps particu- lariy appealing, each part having most charming phrases. which were extreme ly well rendered.
 Miss Royce gave two groups of vio- lin solos, the Hungarian Dance of the first group being given with great dash and verve, and the Caratine of the second group possessing a smooth, yet vibrant quality quite unusual. The encore, an exquisite Seranade, was played with great feeling and sensibil- ity.
 MT. Learned's playing of the cello, one of the loveliest of solo instruments, gave pleasure to all. Massent's Mel ody and Hollman's Petite Valse were entsnsely sweet and meIodious and were played with true artistic feeling. Miss Hunts playing was character Zed by rare delicacy. and charm. Her style is unhaekneyed and full of sym plicity and the correctness of her phrasing is exceptional. Her 1e- gato tones are particularly well render ed.
 The Allegro brisoso by Schytte was given with style and finish and the Etude Caprice by Gang played with great brilliance. In Mozarts Fan tasie in D minor. it's chaste and dig nified mode was interpreted and play ed with excellent taste and phrasing.
 Perhaps Miss Hunt exceIled in her rendition of the Chopin numbers She successfully gave to each rich tone and phrase it's full value. showing a rare beauty of interpretation of this com poser she is thoroughly in sympathy with as is indicated in her performance of them.
 The programme concluded with the singing Of the Star Spang1ed Banner by the audience, accompanied by the trio with the addition Of MT. Hunt on the .ccrnet.
 The programme follows:
 America Gone verse;; trio, Mazurka Mailing; piano, Allefro nrisco. Schytte; violin (a) Hungarian Dance, Drdla: (b) Canto Amoroso, Sammartini- -IG1- man; cello, Gal Melody.
