Japanese Y. NC. A.
Hold Farewell Party

On Sunday evening, June End, the
Japanese Y. NJ. b. A. and Y. NJ. C. A,
held a party at Lihue to bid farewell
to the Hawaiian born Japanese who
were called into service by the United
States Government, and who are am
bilious to do their bit.
We congratulate these boys who
are called for military service by the
United States Government as this is
the first time the Japanese were ever
called since the annexation of Hawaii
and everyone aught to grasp this op-
portunity and help America win the
war
Among those present at the meeting
were Capt. Fred Patterson and nine
japanese soldiers, II. Miyasaki II.
Miwa, T. Seike, X. Okamoto and many
others. Captain Patterson gave an
interesting talk that was very much
appreciated by the Japanese present.
After this meeting the party ad-
journed to the Tip Top Theatre where
another meeting was held on how to
be good American citizens Those
who spoke were II. Miyasake, X.
Yamasake, H. Miwa, n. Tuschiya, N.
Sadaoka, and others.

Churches Observe
Childrens' Day

In common with the custome ad-
opted generally on the Mainland,
the Lihue Union Church observed
last Sunday, being the second Sun
day in June, as Childrens Day.
The church was beautifully deco
rated for the occasion with potted
plants, bauhinia, and great masses
of pink shower, in the midst of which
anary bird was enshrined and
which entered into the spirit of the
occasion with timely bursts of song
Two little babies made their first
public appearance in the baptisimal
service and conducted themselves
most modestly and demurely. Two
members of the Sunday School We're
received into church membership
with appropriate services.
The children's program was one of
more than usual interest, including
childrens songs and recitations, some
of them in groups, some as duets and
solos; all very effectively and in
telligently rendered. AS usual, the
smaller children were most appeal
ing and won the most favor.
A novel feature was the scripture
presentation, in character and cos
tune, of the healing of the lame man
at the Beautiful Gate OF the Temple,
and the restoration of Dorcas, the
first Red Cross worker-the latter
being in several scenes, the story be-
ing set forth by narrator. The
children entered into these scenes
with interest and enthusiasm and
rendered them very well.
The whole affair went off very
smoothly and was creditable to all
! concerned.

SECRETARY OF
!. NJ. c. A. LOOMS
MAKES REPORT

Following is the report of County
Secretary Chas. f. Loomis, of the
Kauai County Y. NJ c. A., for the
iscal year closing April 80, 1913:
TO the Kauai County Committee
of the Young Mems Christian
Associations.
ment of making rural life more salts
flying for boys and young men through
the agency of the Young Mems
Christian Association has ended.
Besides working through regular
organized Y. NJ. c. A. groups which
conduct a definite program OF physi-
cal. educational. social, religious and
service activities, the Association
has co-operated with the schools,
homes, churches, and civic agencies
in carrying on the community type of
work.
1t was not the intention of the AS
sociation to carry on a special work
for the plantation laborers who live
in isolated camps during the expert
mental stage of its work but the de-
mand for it was so insistent on the
part of the Filipinos and the need for
it was felt so keenly by few indi-
viduals having plantation interests
that secretary was secured to give
full time to work with Filipinos.
In adapting Association work to
Kauai needs we have had the co.
operation of the pastors, educators,
Board of Supervisors and plantation
managers. The supervision given
our work by the Territorial and Inter-
national Committees of the Young
Mems Christian Association has been
invaluable.
The Board of Supervisors have
| equipped the Waimea, Kalaheo and
Lihue schools with lights for our
use. Kekaha Sugar Co. installed
lights in the japanese Language
school building for the use of the
Filipino and Japanese night school
classes, put lights and equipment in
the boarding house for the use of the
mechanical drawing class and fur
nished posts for volley ball. The
Hawaiian Sugar Co. erected a school
bungalow at Camp for the use of the
Filipino club and night school and
provided a room for a drawing class.
The Japanese night school classes
have been held in the Camp l Ian.
guage school building. McBryde
Sugar Co. built club house for the
Filiplnos of Camp and the Hama
pepe Japanese Church equipped
their kindergarten building for the
use of our night school The Jap
anese boys of Wahiawa Camp used
private club house for their meet
ings. Gay & Robinson provided a
hall for the Filipino class at Pakala.

SCHOOL TEACHERS
ANNOUNCED FOR
YEAR Of 1888

The Department of Public Instruc-
ton is now giving out the list of ap
pointments as decided upon at the
meeting of the Commissioners of Pub
lie Instruction which was held on
Monday and Tuesday, May 27 and
2S.
AS usual, all of these appointments
were made subject to the condition
that they were all tentative, and that
no contracts are to be issued until
after the final grade examinations are
over, when contracts shall be issued
as soon as possible, except in cases
where marked inadequacy of the ex
animation results or violation of the
rules make it appear best to with
hold action until the next meeting OF
the Commissioners; also excepting al
cases where teachers are to attend
summer school or take examinations.
No teacher, who should have taken
the teachers examinations and who
fails to do so, shall be reappointed.
While most of the requests made
by teachers for transfers were grant
ed, it was impossible to arrange all OF
these at present. The remaining re
quests will, however, be considered
whenever suitable occasion occurs
and there are, undoubtedly, a number
of teachers on the lists given out who
will be able to secure their transfers
before schools opens in September
as these lists are subject to constant
revision during the summer months.

returned a verdict of not guilty.
The verdict seems to be a popular
one as the case had not proce 9ded
far when it became very evident that

cution were perjuring themselves
The killing took place at Kealil on
April Goth, last and Fujii Tokumatsu
was arrested for the crime The
grand jury failed to find true bill
on account of a lack of evidence so
the case was dropped Later the
grand jury secured more evidence
and asked to have the case reopened.
This time three men were impli-
cated-Fujii Tokumatsu, Miyasawa
Fukuzo and Takahase Tomeji.
Attorney Fred Patterson represent
ed the Territory and A. G. Kaulukou
appeared for the defense.
On account of the fact that Attorney
Patterson and court stenographer
Ahana were called in the guard, the
case was rushed through by holding
night sessions.
The Korean was killed by blows de-
livered with broken bottle which
severed the arteries on his left side
just under the arm. Other wounds
were made on the left side of the face
and at the back of the head near the
base of the skull.
The witnesses for the prosecution
claimed that the defendants called the
Korean into a room and, after some
words Fujii picked up bottle and
stepping behind the Korean, dealt him
blow on the back of the head, which
knocked him to the floor. Then
while one kicked him, the others shOV-
ed him into another room, and Fujii
struck him repeatedly with the broken
wound which caused death.
1t is claimed the Japanese then took
the Korean outside and that Miyasawa
Fukuzo struck him repeatedly with
hoe.
The location of the wounds on the
dead man, and the manner in which
the blows were delivered that caused
them as testified to by the witnesses
for the prosecution, did not tally as
the position of the wounds plainly
showed that they were caused by
blows coming from the side, which
could not happen if the blows were
delivered as witnesses testified.
Attorney Kaulukou, for the defense,
called witnesses to prove that the
dead man had been of quarrelsome
and vicious disposition, that he was
large and powerful man and was fire.
quently in trouble. 1t was proven to
the satisfaction of judge and jury that
the Korean had forced a fight upon
Fujii and had grabbed him by the
throat with his left hand. 1t was then
Fujii delivered the blows. in self de-
fense, which caused the death of his
adversary.
The defendant "Whiskey', who is
accused of striking the Korean with
hoe, came forward with a perfect
alibi 1t was proven that he was
drunk and in his bed, asleep, at the
time of the trouble.
1t is quite likely that charges of
perjury will be preferred against the
Korean witnesses.
