Training Ship Has
Professor To Teach
English To Cadets

(. One of the most interesting figures
on board the Imperial Japanese train
ing ship Taisei Maru, now visiting
this. port. is Prof. Bramwell Clarke,
English instructor. He has been with
the ship about five years and is pop
ular with the officers, cadets and the
men alike.
Prof. Clarke is a graduate of the
University of Edinburgh, Scotland,
1897. Shortly afterwards, he went
abroad, and finally settled in Dali Nip
pom, where he has made his home for
20 years. He speaks and writes the
Japanese language fluently.
Prof. Clarke stated yesterday that
the cadets on board the Taisei Maru
are among the best English-speaking
students in all Japan. This is due, he
said, to the fact that all the time they
are given strict orders to speak Eng
lish.
During their leisure hours they get
together and form an English-speak-
ing club. In this way they become
proficient In the use Of the English
language.

WHAT CAN WE DO FOR THE

Editor Honolulu Star.Bulletin,
Sir: The question, What Can We
Do For the SOLDIER" like the provefb.
ial ghost will not be downed. The Y.
w. c. A. has hit the trail. They are
the ones who can come nearer solv'
ing this question than any other it
seems with a canteen proposition,
similar to that of Australia, or that
the Allies have in operation.
There should be at least one res.
taurant or canteen in the vicinity of
every post and big central one in
Honolulu. ~ Ill: .....
Such a monopoly for the benefit Of
the patrons-the soldier and the sailor
could serve at reasonable prices
and still make a good profit.
These men are tired Of being held
up by the INSCRIPTIONS unregulated

The citizens of Honolulu will be
given an opportunity, however, to
make suggestions or offer objections

commissioners and secure a permit
from them to purchase the goods
He then takes his permit to the dealer
and indorses it, 1t Is not necessary

Filipino, Mantanelo Wham, aged 20. Is

detective squad declare that the fight
started over a gambling game. Cor.

the man who shot Wham.
The witnesses declare that they
were engaged in a gambling game at
one of the Puuloa camps Sunday even

was winning large sums OF money,
when Soberano became angry. He
demanded that Wham turn over some

some more money. He returned short.

Call For Public Service

Governor Pinkhams address to the Civic Conven-
ton was one of the best summaries of the civic ac
tvities of the territorial on the various
islands that the governor has ever presented Quite
naturally there will be citizens who will not agree
with all of his comment, but the whole tenor OF the
address is an inspiration to renewed effort because
of the successful conclusions OF the past
And in this connection there could not be Tor
Honolulu better sequel to the governors address
than the presentation from Hilo Of model for the
federal building of Honolulu. This is a reminder
to Honolulu that with all our self satisfied belief
in our own community service activities, the people
of this capital city have fallen far short, lament
ably So
Hilo obtained its federal building by sinking its
petty jealousies and factional hoggishness in the
crater of Kilauea or some other convenient place
that can always be found by citizens who allow
their better selves to control.
Honolulu has federal building in sight, but this
has been accomplished rather for Honolulu than by
Honolulu.
The immediate prospect seems bright and there
is cause for congratulaton But the end is not yet
The people of Honolulu and the people of Hawaii
have not yet got themselves together and carried
through great civic project in big hearted unanl-
nous, wholesome way that proves that the citizens
as whole are aroused to their full sense of com.
munity responsibility.
The parks and the public buildings, with the ex.
ception of Hilo, have been pulled along by hard
working, determined, broad-visioned men, The bat
ties have been fought in many instances against the
stifest opposition that can face any man or body
of men-public Indifference
Such organizations as the Civic Convention have
still great deal to do in getting under the hide OF
selfish, prejudiced 'plain lazy" indifference Less
factionalism and more unselfshness are needed
everywhere. Before this city and the island towns
can move forward their opportunities really JUS
tfy it will be necessary to bring into action more
men who have come to realize that they must serve
IL they would succeed.

One might imagine that the common soapbox
haunt concerning Britans letting her Colonial and
Irish troops do her lighting would be generally ac-
cepted for what it is worth Yet the charge has re-
ceived sufficient currency to call forth semioicial
denial from the war Office in the form of figures to
show that purely British casualties in the recent
sighting have been to overseas casualties as to l.
and in the battle of Ypres as 9 to I. To any one
who has taken the trouble to compare Canadian and
Anzac casualty figures as separately reported with
the total of British casualties this reinsurance from
oficial quarters was hardly necessary. 1t is case
Of British sentiment ngeniously turning to its
advantage the emphasis laid in British war reports
on the part played by Colonials. The motive for
thus featuring the troops from overseas was in part
grateful recognition, in part courtesy, in some
measure no doubt, policy. All the belligerents
Rave done the same. The German war Office has
consistently headined the Bavarians who are to the

given the Siberian Rife Corps probably much more

Alpins of France have rendered notable service but
probably not in proportion to the glory which has
come to these "Blue Devils"
