In road legislation, legislative leaders wisely took
the advice of men who have given time and study to
the subject and have reached certain definite con
clnsions. In fact one OF the most pleasing things
Of this session was that when definite program
was laid out for good roads, il given fair con
sideration The Auto Clubs backing Of the specific
tax plan proved we'll worth while
AZ an instance of rapid:fre effective work, the
handling Of the food control hill shows what the leg
isIature can accomplish in the face OF recognized
emergency when the members are willing to put
aside small politics The bill was drawn BY Sea
ator Castle and Attorney Hemenway and put
through yin less than Il week-and that ia the hur-
ried, busy last days OF the session The food CON
troll bill il probably the most important act of 1911
It's vital principles were formulated outside the
legislature entirely hut the legislature should get
credit for promptitude of action when the situation
was laid before it's leaders.
It.s too bad that the 1917 legislature married its
record by fatally muddng several of the most con-
spicuous measures before it, for a good deal Of
routine but important work gotten through
effectively. The appropriation and loan fund bills
have met little criticism and much praise. In gen
eral, there was considerable effort at economy. The
ltimid attacks on thegovernor were dropped before
the session ended-with the exception Of Represen-
tative Andrews, who appears to have hard time
forgetting the city charter veto. .
Not few members who do not figure in the
"tumuIt and the fighting" did great deal of quiet.
painstaking work in committees and in personal
study of the questions before them Considering the
vast mass of measures which poured into the hop
pers at arecord breaking rate Hawaii ought to- be
thankful that the legislature blocked as much freak
legislation and drew the pursestrings as close it
did. "sr-.

fail to recognize their manhood and their duty their

The governor puts it exactly right. The proper,
ton of enlisted men who misbehave is small com
pared to the large number on Oahu, and none are
quicker to condemn an enlisted man for conduct
unbeconiing his uniform than his associates. The
great OF the soldiers and sailors are types
of army men the United States may well be proud
Of and to hold them class responsible for the

FULFILLs PROPHETS VISION
Wars Flying Hosts Recall Isaiah's
Words, "To the Land That Is
shadowlnp Dark With Wings"

Charles A. Dana, whose brilliancy
as its editor made the New York
Sun "shine for ALL" visited Jerusa-
lem, says Gerard in the Philadelphia
Ledger. He wrote afterward of the
extraordinary material fulfllment of
biblical prophecy wherein it was
foretold that man should some day
come up to the Holy City "behind a
swaying furnace"
The little Baldwin locomotives
updh its crooked track gave a good
i'm ation of a "swaying furnace"
that bright February day l assembled
from Jaffa to Zion.
- But that has nothing to do with
sirplanes, which is what / meant to
write about. There are $4,000 air
planes lowering over the armies in
Europe, and the United States may
send over that many more.
Now turn to your Bible and read
how old Jerusalem foresaw these
flocks Of winged men.
"Behold, he shall fly as an eagle
and spread his wings" So said Jere-
miah.
Hosea also took a mental photo
graph centuries upon centuries ago
of this human bird: Gle shall come
like an eagle against the house of the
Lord"
Zachariah, too, had a similar
vision, and he beheld "two women,
and the wind was in their wings"
But it was grand old Isaiah who
pictured accurately what the Wright
brothers were going to do thousands
Of years before they did it:
"The stretching out of his wings
shall fill the breadth of thy land, I'm
manuel"
Can you put upon canvas a more
graphic picture of those $4,000 air.
men over the battlefelds than did
Isaiah: "To the land that is shad-
owing dark with wings?"
Is it any wonder that the old
prophet inquired: "Who are these
who fly as a cloud?"

SUBSTITUTES FOR LEATHER.

Owing 10 the scarcity of hides and
skins and the increased demand for
leather, many skins are now being
tanned that were formerly consid-
cred to be worthless as leather. Thus
today we find that the hides Of
whales and skins of fish are being
converted into a marketable product.
As aresult of the scarcity of hides
and skins, various substitutes have
been brought forward, so that we
have imitation heather for furniture
and automobile leather mats and
glaze-fnished linoleum products to
take the place of upper leather, and
finally several sOle-leather substi-
tutes. With all of these, however,
the old saying holds good: There is
nothing like leather.

Americas Panorama.

See New York with her skyscrap-
ers that lust for the clouds like the
Tower of Babel; Niagara roaring in
exultation and shining In the crisp
winter sunlight through veil Of dia-
mond dust; the Pacific pounding on
the golden sands of California; Pitts
burgh with her furnaces glaring at
night against the April rain clouds
the Mississippi, mighty as the might
lest Of gods, surging past sleepy south
ern villages, where of a Sunday morn
Ing the church bells stir the heart to
vague, sweet lonGngs; New Orleans
with Canal street gay of a Saturday
night and the moonlight shinmering
on the white excursion boats beside
the levee; MackinacS white fort on
the hilltop and the whisper OF the
Michigan pine woods; old Charleston,
the cleck Of st. Michaers Ginning the
hours about the churchyard; Boston
and Lexington and Concord, where at
every turn there is n token of the
pride that cannot die; West Point
when the sunset gun echoes from the
hills and the flag comes down.
