CHAPTER I.

The little hall had been we'll filled; extra chairs were crowded in at the back. The occasion was the Colon els speech in the cause of the Fourth Liberty Loan. The Colonel was a stranger to the town and many had gone that night out of curiosity. Bills had been posted about announc- ing that their distinguished guest would be the -Four Minute Speaker of the evening. No one seemed to resent the fact that the four min utes had stretched out into fourteen, and the audience fingered about in groups a little spellbound by the magnetism of the speaker.
 The evening had been full of thrills.
 The show began with a Pathe News, depicting the arrival of Our Boys Somewhere in France" and wound up with Chapter Six of "The Railroad Raiders" ."-"The Abduction of Lady Rosedale," but it was not Lady Rosedale they were talking about, it was the Liberty Loan and how they were going to double their quota; for after that speech they would be satisfied with nothing less than going lover the top" twice.
 No one noticed Pat, as he slouched out into the muddy street; he was familiar sight to them all.
 Tonight his, feet :, hit the sidewalk a little more evenly than usual; it was "dry town" and his regular haunts were more difficult of access during the Colonels visit; he had pushed his money over to the pretty girl selling tickets at the show be- cause there was nothing else to do, and now he was coming away with some of the vision in his heart and brain that had not been there before i; was it what the Colonel had said or was it the man himself?
 Pat stood out in front of the win dow of an eating house where there was a, brilliantly illuminated mirror reflecting a variety of good eats spreading out in tempting array; but it was not the good eats" he saw
 Facing Pat was a man; stopping slovenly, degraded; his dim eyes met the watery gaze from the mirror and wavered with a sense of shame
 Gradually another form shaped itself before him; erect, clear eyed clean skinned, with an earnest ges ture, half appeal, half command We used to ask you to buy these bonds; we ASK no longer; it is your duty as a citizen of the United States to lend your money to the Govern ment in this time of trial-if you have the money to buy a bond and DON'T, if you don't wear this but, ton of the Fourth Liberty Loan, your neighbor has right to ask you WHY?"

An Interesting Visitor

Prof. H. r. Harper ofBoston Uni
versty School of Technology, arrived
this morning by the Kinau, and will
spend a few days on this Island. AL
though in appearance quite a young
man, he is a veteran in experience
having been four months with the
British Y. NJ C. A. in England, and a
year and a half with the American Y.
NJ. C. A. at artillery headquarters in
France. He was present at the of
fensive which turned the tide of war
at Chateau Thierry, the Gettysburg
of this great war, and he tells a won
derfuly thrilling tale of what he saw
and heard. He knew the Yankee boy
who captured 80 Huns single handed
and that is another thrilling story.
Local Y secretary Warner is ar
ranging mass meetings at which Mr..
Harper will speak; we would advise
the public not to miss them. This is
no Campaign" or Drive" of any kind
and there will be no appeal for money
or sacrifice. Rather it. will be of the
nature of reward for the good work
done by Kauai.
In connection with these meetings
and as an added feature of interest
there will be an awarding of medals
to the Working Reserve Boys OF
Kauai.
The mass meeting for Lihue @il
take place Friday afternoon at twc
o'clock at the Tip Top, to which the
Working Reserve Do.-s of Lihue md
Koloa, with their friends are ;ny ted
and with them the general puslic.
Similar meetings are being arranged
for Waimea, Kapaa and Kilauea.

Misplaced Ingenuity

On Thursday evening last, three
young Japanese boys ranging in age
from fifteen to seventeen years were
caught by the ushers of the Tip Top
theatre trying to gain entrance to the
show on tickets dated two days
earlier. When quizzed about the mat
ter. one of the boys confessed that
upon having found the ticket window
left open on Tuesday evening after
the show he simply reached in AMI
pressed the button on the ticket ma
chine as often as he wished, thus
securing a handful of Is cent tickets,
This is where the would-be ticket
magnate failed, the fact of the ticket
being dated escaped his youthful at
tention.
On Friday the trio was brought UP
before Judge Hjorth in the Lihue
District Court, who, upon ascertaining
their tender age, promptly had the
case transferred to the Juvenile Court
presided over by Hon. l.. A Diskey.
Judge Dickey and Mr.. Warner of
the Y. NJ. G. A., took the boys in
hand on Saturday morning and it is
safe to say the boys will never again
attempt to gain admission to a show
on stolen tickets.

A Thriving Business

The Red Cross Shop is still the
most popular thing on the Island. The
sales are phenominal and it keeps the
supply committee busy to keep up the
stock.
The management plan to have g
great Christmas sale of toys on Dec.
18th, when there will be an oppor-
tunity to secure toys for the children
in great variety, and so cheap as
never known before.
In order to redeem this promise
and meet the great demand that there
will surely be, friends are urgently
requested to contribute toys of all
kinds, new, old, secondhand, decrepit
or broken,-anything that is or was
toy; invalid dolls, lame, halt, blind
or rheumatic. Also bits of dress ma
terial and children's books.

that his jawbone was broken and he
was otherwise pretty badly crippled
