AMBULANCE UNIT
OF MASONS OFF
FOR WAR fronts

Honolulus mambers OF the Masonic
fraternity shared in the glory OF the
send-on given the Masonic Am 6ulance
CORDS Of California at the San Fran
cisco civic auditorium on the evening
OF July 20. The boys are now training
for the work at the front
This ambulance corps has been
equipped through the contribution OF
members OF Masonic lodges under the
California Jurisdiction In this Hawaii
has shared, as nearly all the lodges
Of the Territory are now subject to
the grond lodge Of California. The
members of the corps are also Cali.
fornia Masons.
Local contributions were made
through Mir. James Fenwick, inspec-
tor for this district. BY the last mail
Mr. Fenwick received a letter from
the director Of the executive commit
tee. who says, Il cannot commence to
describe to you the magnifcence Of
the affair and the impression that 1t
made. We had over eight hundred
knights Templars, Shriners and Scot
fish Rite masons who lined up in uni
form on each side Of the civic audi
torium. The ambulance corps, one
hundred and twenty-four strong, came
in and stood under the drop light, the
rest of the house being in darkness
Over the stage in the organ loft, were
fifty buglers OF the naval training sta.
ton. On the sage we're the Masonic
dignataries and executive committee
and Gen. Liggett, U. S. A., in uniform
and side arms, with fourteen Of his
staff That was the setting and you
can imagine the impression it pro-
duced on all Of us. There we're ap-
nine thousand people in
the building and the solemnity of the
occasion added to its significance"
The cablegram from Honolulu an.
its participation was read at
the reception that followed.

the question as he had not looked into
It thoroughly.
May Increase imports
The question has arisen, however,
as to the effect such a regulation
would have on the liquor traffic. The
opinion has been expressed that, II the
beer and sake brewerieS were com
PEELED to suspend, the importation OF
these liquors would increase. George
w. Patty. secretary Of the Ant-Saloon
League, believes the regulations would
in a large measure wipe out the
blind pigs" that have flourished in
Honolulu since the law prohibiting
the sale Of liquor to military officers
and men in uniform went into effect.
The reason for this belief, he says; Is
that much Of the liquor sold in blind
pigs" is beer and that it Is Of local
manufacture.
Personally | would like to see the
commission make this ruling" said a
business man today. Il read a report
in the Star-Bulletin yesterday to the
effect that many underfed children
are attending the schools here. One
theory which may be drawn is that
much Of the parents money is spent
for liquor"
1t is pointed out that the question
Of whether the beer and sake brew
cries shall be closed for the period OF
the war, at least, is for the public to
answer, as public sentiment would be
one of the principal factors in having
the food commission take up the mat
ter for consideration

in the condition Of the books tof the

ALL ON U-B0ATS
of German Fleet Says
They Will Win War.
German Official Admits Amer
lea Will Be Unpleasant.

Amsterdam, Sept. 1--Confldence In
the effect of unrestricted submarine
warfare is expressed by Admiral
Reinhardt Scheer, commander of the
German battle fleet, in an interview in
The Leipsic Tageblatt. the admiral
declaring that he expected every
thing from it.
Questioned about losses of subma-
rines and as to anti-submarine meth
DDS Admiral Scheer said:
with almost ideal obstinacy, the
English miss the mark and so far we
have only been met with guns. nets
and mines and not with any new anti
submarine appliances. l can confirm
the statement recently made regard
ing our losses, which on the average
are two to three monthly and are
more than equaled by new construc
ton"
Regarding Americas support of
Great Britain, Admiral Scheer had
this to say:
Il do not underestimate it, neither
do l attach too much importance to
it, The Americans make themselves
plies of airplanes. technical material,
etc, but they can hardly harm us ser
iously from a military point of view
and they will never become dangerous.
They will no more be able to turn the
scale in favor of the entente than
Italy or Rumania.''
Admiral Scheer expressed his con-
viction that the submarines will have
decided the issue of the war before
America is ready to send a large army
to Europe.

AID SCHOOL WORK
All Organizations Urged To
Help Maintain Efficiency.
p. p. ClaxtOn Makes a Nation
Wide Appeal.

Labor unions, parent-teacher asso-
Citations, woman's clubs, churches and
other religious bodies, and many other
organizations directly concerned with
education have been enlisted by the
United States bureau of education in
campaign for the maintenance of
school efficiency as a special patriotic
duty this year.
In a nationwide appeal DIR. P. P.
ClaXton, commissioner of education at
Washington, points out the existing
fear lest public school shall suffer
because of conditions growing out of
the entrance of the United States into
the war. He emphasizes the fact that
as a measure of present defense and
for the future welfare of the country.
as we'll as for the individual benefit of
the children, it is of the greatest i'm
portance that the schools be main
tanned in the highest standards of eff
cheney.
Appeal to Labor Unions.
Especially important, in the view of
the commissioner, is prompt and reg
ular attendance at school and proper
employment during Out-of-School
hours. These, the commissioner, be-
lieves. will be the children's surest pro-
lection against temptations to juvenile
delinquencieS.
Labor unions are especially appeal
ed to to urge the children now in
high school to complete their work.
superintendent of schools have been
asked to cooperate with the repre-
sentatives of labor unions in their
communities in the efforts to keep
children in school.
No Conflict Here.
In Topeka, according to A. ]. Stout,
principal of the Topeka high school,
there has been a great deal of CO.
operation between the organizations of
the city and the high schools TT is
very seldom that work and school COn-
flict with Topeka children" Mr. Stout
said this morning. "Only in such cases
as orphaned children has this condi-
ton of withdrawal from school been
called to my attention"
However, the idea will be presented
to the local labor and civic organi-
cations by the schools, it was said
this morning.

BOUGHT USED CAR
EIDOradO Man Also Bought Big
Batch of Trouble.
Number on Engine and Bill of
Sale Not the Same.

When his employer commissioned
b. j. Beck to go to Kansas City and
purchase a used" automobile he also
commissioned him to a lot of trouble
The trouble was spilled in the sher-
ifs office today after Beck had been
picked up on the charge of driving a
stolen car.
Beck told his story and substanti-
ated it with several papers. He gave
the name of his employer at Eldorado.
in the oil fields. and stated that the
employer had commissioned him to go
to Kansas City and buy a secondhand
automobile. He was given $500 with
which to make the deal-$25 for ex-
penses and s475 for the car.
In Kansas City Beck picked up a
Ford runabout that looks new He
had bill of sale for it showing that
he paid $420 for the car. The bill of
sale gives the engine number and a
lot of other information about the car
and it is signed by the man from
whom Beck says he bough. it.
In Topeka Beck stopped and went
to the court house to purchase a state
license. In the meantime an investi-
he gave his engine did not correspond
with the one on the engine, but did
correspond with the one on his bill of
sale.
An inspection of the car clearly
shows that the old engine number had
been filed off and new one stamped
on. Apparently Beck was able to give
clear record to Hugh Lar.mer, sher-
iff, but Kansas City officials want the
today and will return to Kansas City
to face the officers and the man who
sold him the car without the neces-
Sity of obtaining a reQuiSitiOn.
