the proper Interpretation and legal
effect of the will Of r. ID. Gardner.

and settle the same.
The question presented to the
court may be stated as follows:
1t is the contention of the guar

of the son without issue during the
life of his father. the clear intent OF
an absolute and unconditional title
to that share of the estate described
in the third paragraph of the Will.
On the part of the widow of the
testator it is argued that, properly
construed, the will vested the son
with no more than conditional or
defeaslble fee in the property devils
ed, title which could become ab-
solute only upon the death OF Chas;;
E. Gardner leaving living issue, and
that it being conceded that he died
without issue the title then reverted
or passed to his mother.
On the first theory the guardian s
ward, Carrie Guilford Gardner. as
widow G: Charles E. Gardner, is en-
titled to statutory distribntIve

Registration Returns

T~HE registration board and its host of willing
1 workers carried through a difficult task well
yesterday The totals for the Territory were on the
wire and being flashed to Washington by midnight
thus making good the claim of Executive Officer
Green that Hawaii would establish a.record in the
promptness of its registration returns.A -'a' ...'
1t was no small task, that set before the regstra-
ton board by Provost Marshal Crowder. Hawaii
geographically is very small place but in the mat
ter of diversified races and in the matter of the
proportion of young men to its total population il
probably offers more work to the square mile along
registration lines than any other section Of the Union
When the returns reach Washington this fact will
probably be appreciated If il were not known before
|. We will confess that we dread the reception of
our registration figures by the average irianlander
Nearly three aliens of fighting age to every citizen
is something that will set tongues wagging amongst
those not familiar with the facts behind the figures
We fear that Hawaii will be held up in thousand
editorial columns as horrible example We see the
recurrence of the Japanese scare, H..
In all probability registration returns will lei
loose whirwind of talk, and it is not nice to have
to acknowledge that of registered citizens prac-
tically fifty per cent have claimed exemption from
the draft We believe these claims are well found
ed but they will not strike the average mainlandeT
with anything but wonder especially when he com,
pares our citizen strength with our alien totals The
mainlander is not likely to remember that we have
at least couple of thousand citizens in the national
guard, who do not appear in the registration totals
The figures as they stand will be what he will see
and comment on. ....H - ..-tl-,@
Hawaii has nothing to be ashamed Of we know
and that the criticism in for is not deserved
we likewise know. But we must prepare ourselves
for the shafts of the aborites the remarks of the

"A National Force
newspapers

TIME Liberty Loan of 1917 already constitutes
j an important factor in our national life. 1t
has given a new direction to thought among the
people and new impulsion to popular aims. The
effects of the loan on the government, the body
of the people and on the individual citizen of the
United States are sure to be great and manifold,
The four million holders OF Liberty Loan Bonds
will look with more and attention on financial
legislation by congress than heretofore. Much
of the national indifference to alleged extravagant
and unwise legislation will vanish so far as they
are concerned The direct, individual, financial
interest which every bond holder has in the gov
ernment's finances will make each active and
effective agent for economy in administration and
for wise legislation.
The Liberty Loan is going to create new vot-
ing force in the body politc-a civic force in which
partisanship and extravaganza are to be subordi-
mated to better and wiser things.
The Liberty Loans influence for good, in anOtlI-
er way, is going to be largely effective through its
influence on the individual bond holder. To thrift
for ones own sake there has been added the in
centve for thrift for the nations sake. Thrift
for the nations sake will benefit the individual
and combine two strong motives-patriotsm and
self-interest
Economy like extravaganza is more or less in
fictitious. We are just passing through era OF
extravaganza and entering on period of econ
omy The Liberty Loan furnished an inspiration
and an opportunity for economy and saving.
AS the intolerable humiliation Of owing to Ger
many the war indemnity in 1870 made the French
people a nation of savers and government bond
buyers SO the great Liberty Loan of 1917 with its
call upon the patriotism of Americans will make
this nation more nation of savers than ever be-
fore. pa
The number of subscribers to the loan and the
amounts subscribed make the two billion dollar
loan more than success. 1t triumph and
its effect on the people of America will be far
reaching and lasting.
