Nobody To Have Credit And Phones
Go Out Quick If Bills Are Not Paid
Costs Money To Get Them Back

That the Maui Telephone Company
has been under the jurisdiction of the
U. S. postof1ice department since July

management received the first of this
week, together with instructions con-
cerning the future conduct of the bust
ness.
Among other things the government
now requires the business to be put
upon an absolutely cash basis, and
accordingly notices were sent out this
week to all subscribers advising that
after this month all telephone instru.
ment rentals must be paid in advance.
Bills that are not so paid by the 18th
of each month will result in phones
being removed and a charge Cf SIS
for business phones and so forSouse
phones required for reinstalling.
The company has also been advised
that extension work and new installa
tions must hereafter be on limited
scale. For the time being there is
to be no change required by tine post

A.C.Rattray ToJoin
Pineapple Company
Quits Kahului Railroad End OF Month
To Take E. S. Smiths Place -
To Be Succeeded By Jameson
Smith To Take Coast Trip

E. S. Smith, head bookkeeper of the
Haiku Fruit G. Packing Co., who rec
emily resigned his position and who,
with his wife will leave next week
for an extended visit on the Coast, is
to be succeeded the first of the month
by A. G.. Rattray, at present cashier
of the Kahului Railroad Company
Mr.. Rattray will be succeeded by j.
G.. Jameson, list assistant bookkeeper
in the Railroad Offices at present.
Mr. Smith, it is understood, expects
to return to the Islands in a few
months to accept a position with one
of the large sugar agencies in Homo
lulu. He has held his present posi-
tion for several years.
Mr.. Rattray, who started with the
Kahului Railroad some 10 years ago
as clerk in the freight department,
has worked his way up to his pres
ent position by faithful work and
ability, and his going will be missed
in railroad circles. His wide circle
of friends will wish him success in
his new work.
Mr.. Jameson was formerly book
keeper on one of the Brewer G. Co.,
plantations on Hawaii, from which
position he resigned to go into mill
tary service. He was turned down in
this ambition, however, through physi-
cal disqualification, and came to the
Kahului Railroad some 3 months ago.

Haiku Fruit To Get
Hebert OF Paia MIL
Various Changes Result From Resig-
nation of c. E. Barter - New
Sugar Boiler Comes From Kauai
Hebert Goes To Coast

The resignation of Clarence E.
Barter as superintendent of the Hal
ku Fruit and Packing Company's can
merry, which becomes effective the
first of the year, has resulted in a
number of changes on sugar planta-
tions throughout lhe islands.
1t is announced this week that l..
Hebert, sugar boiler for the Maui
Agricultural Co., at ITS Paia mill, and
employed by that company for the
past 10 years or move, is to take Mr..
Barter's place. MI. Hebert, in turn, is
to be succeeded by George Melancon,
at present a sugar boiler for the Nc
Bryde plantation, on Kauai.
Mr.. Melancon is already IN Maui
familiarizing himself with his new
position. He is young man, a native
of Louisiana, but has had wide expert
ence in the sugar business in Cuba,
Louisiana and Texas prior to his com
ing to the Islands about 2 years ago.
His father, A. B. Melancon, is mill su-
perintendent of McBryde.
Mr. Hebert expects to leave soon
for a several months vacation on the
mainland, during which he expects to
make a study of the progress of cas-
sava culture in the southern states
and he will also investigate the more
modern methods of fruit processing.
Mr. Barter has not stated his inten-
tions for the future. 1t is understood
that he is considering several attrac-
tive propositions one of which will
take him from the Islands. He is con-
sidered one of the best canneyymen
in the territory, having been put in
charge at Haiku several years ago by
]. d. Dole, then the controlling factor
of the company. 1t was unde" his
direction that the cannery has more
than doubled its output in less than
two years.

How Honolulu Does It

In connection with the new salvage
department, organized last week by
the Maui Red Cross, the retail branch
of the work, which plans to establish
a Red Cross Shop in Wailuku, has
now been organized. Arrangements
have been made for securing quarters
for the shop in the old Bailey build
ing, at the corner of Main and High
streets, and as soon as possible the
place will be fitted up and opened to
the public.
The idea is that this shop will
handle all such secondhand clothing,
furniture, or other household articles
as may be donated which are suitable
for retail, and which do not come un-
der the head Of Junk"
AS reported last week, H. X. Duncan
of Kahului, has taken the manage
ment of the general salvage work for
Maui, while the ladies of the Red
Cross will handle the Shop. At a
meeting of the women, held last Mon
day morning, the following central
committee was selected:
'"S. VIII. J. Cooper, manager; Mrs.
Charles Cowan, shop superintendent;
Mrs. V. A. Vetlesen and Mrs. P. H..

With her quota advanced from $780,
$50 to $495,000, Maui nevertheless
was the first county in the territory
to go over the top in the big 4th
Liberty Loan drive which ends to-
morrow.
The limit was reached on Tuesday.
Since that time the amount has been
steadily climbing until at l O'Clock
this afternoon Chairman Worth o..
Aiken announced that the fine total of
$3.50 had been recorded, with still
a little more to come in.
This is $751; 900 over Maui's prescrib-
ed quota.
Large Number OF Subscribers
Altogether $500 persons and firms
contributed in raising Mauis quota
of the 4th Liberty Loan. This is be-
tween a third and half of Oahu's
subscribers, according to the state
ment few days ago, and is far ahead
of any other county in the Islands.
In this connection the Wailuku Su-
gar Company has probably set up a
record for all of the territory, with an
over 70 percent subscription of its en-
ployees. Some of its camps have hung
up 100 percent honor emblem. This
is true of the Hayashi camp, south of
Waikapu, where "a laborers, the full
complement of the camp, bought
bonds. One man held out for several
days, but his fellow workers finally
brought moral suasion to bear so
heavily that he came across and made
a perfect score.

A Shampoo Worth Trying

1t is not necessary to shampoo your
hair SO frequently If it is entirely and
properly cleansed each time by the use
Of really good shampoo. The easiest
to use and quickest drying shampoo
that we can recommend to our read
ers is one that brings out all the
natural beauty of the hair and may
be enjoyed at very little expense, by
dissolving a teaspoonful of Canthrox,
which can be obtained from any drug
gist's, in a cup of hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo liquid.
enough so it is easy to apply it to all
the hair instead of just to the top of
the head. This, when rubbed into the
scalp and onto every strand of hair,
chemically dissolves all impurities. 1t
is very soothing and cooling in its act
ion, as well as beneficial to both scalp
and hair. After rinsing out the lathcr
so created, you will find the scalp is
fresh, clean and free from dandruff,
while the hair dries quickly and even
ly, developing bright luster and a
soft fluffiness that makes it seem very
heavy.-Adv.
