A Hint TO the AGED.

II people past sixty years of age
could be persuaded to go to bed as soon
as they take cold and remain in bed for
one or two days, they would recover
much more quickly, especially If they
take Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
There would also be less danger of the
cold being followed by any of the more
serious diseases. : advertisement.

aid Moir, two Hilo youths eighteen

ton and enlistment in the aviation

The two Hilo youths were the most
pleased persons in Honolulu yesterday

volunteers were to be accepted in the
army. AS both boys had been wait
ing for their birthdays. so they would

they had no desire to wait longer to be
called into service, especially as both

PRESIDENT GUARDED,
LAND, AIR, SEA

MANCHESTER, Massachusetts. Aug
ust I9-Prcsident Wilson's outing has
much improved his health. Today he
played the best game Of golf of his
stay, winning from DR.. Gary T. Gray
son, his physician.
While the President and Mrs. Wilson
drove along the shore or strulled on
the beach and in the woods they were
accompanied as usual by secret service
men. Less noticeable and observed by
but few was the part played by the
Marines Pirkctcd the grounds Two
hydroairpIanes searched adjacent waters
and at IA little distance of the coast
two torpedo boat dcstroyers and fleet
of submarine chasers kept guard.
This watch over the sea was taken
because the President and Mrs. Wilson
selected a house standing almost at the
edge Of prOmOntOry that com
mands wide view of the sea, and
which, in turn, can be plainly seen from
some distance out. 1t was not hrliev.
ed to be beyond the range Of pOsslhil.

mamdrr would be tempted e. risk his
ship to take pot shot at so conspiru
Gus a target.

turn reports it n the adjutant gen
eraL
These authorities will then determine
whether the student in question should;
(a) continue his studies in preparation
for work in chemistry, engineering,
etc, or (b) should go at once to an
officers training camp, or (c) be as
signed to duties In the ordnance, quar-
termaster, or other staff corps, or (d)
be sent to a training camp as q private.
A man showing no special ability may
expect to be ordered into active ser
vice as a private.
Although no definite ruling has as
yet been received, it is believed that
men who enter the service through the
draft cannot later be transferred to
the Student Army Training Corps.
Young men liable to military service
and qualified for admission should not
therefore delay their applications for
admission, provided they prefer the
Student Army Training Corps, to any
other form of the military or naval
service. Students under eighteen
years of age cannot be legally enlisted,
but they will be permitted and cncOur,
aged to enroll.
Work of Members
The work of members of the Student
Army Training Corps entering the Col
lego as freshmen will be essentially
that of the regular courses as outlined
in the catalogue. They will, however,

credit hours instead Of the usual sew

ton to the academic work they will

Members will therefore spend j2 hours
each week in work at the college.
The military training will be con.

College for that purpose. At the close

do with the aba ndOnmcnt of home guard
organizations which were started in
some of the states, as well as in Ha-
wall
All the men who are eligible to enlist
ment in the national guard regiments
will soon be in military or semi
military work anyhow, following
draft calls after the registration of
the rCgistrants between eighteen and
twenty-one and between thirty--one and
forty five.
Vow It Was Formed
some enlightenment as TO how the
Fifth Regiment came into being is con.
trincd in the following story which was
printed in The Advertiser at the same
time il was announced that n new guard
regiment was to be organized to re-
place the regiments called into federal
service:
Major Will Wayne, adiutant gen
eral of the national guard, is a gen
eral' without an army-unless stem
Ographer, of the female persuasion, and
carctaker can be called an army.
Aside from the stenog and the JAM
tor, Major Wayne is virtually the whole
national guard now. His command
Just moved out from under him leaving
him high and dry. Three days ago he
ruled in majesty over thirty four hun
bred men; today he sits alone in an
empty armory.
at : true that the adjutant general
still has jurisdiction over the quar-
termaster corps, but most of the officers
of that contingent have jumped to other
services where there 5 more doing right
now, so Major Wayne us the captain
tight and the midshipmite and the crew
Of the captains gig"
However, on June 81 The Advertiser
had story that the orders for the
forming of the new regiment had been
received. In part it read as follows:
"The first official copy of the author
izatiOn for the formation of the Home
Guard for Hawaii, the organization
which has already been launched by Col.
we'll Wayne, the adjutant general of
the Hawaiian National Guard, has
reached the guard headquarters from
Mai. Gen. j. Mel. Carter of the militia
bureau of the war department, Wash
ington.
"In the order, the Territory of Ha-
waii is specifically mentioned, and the
guard officials are to commence the or
/ ganization of the Home Guard which
will be the Fifth Regiment, N. G. H.,
i for the period of the war.
"Thr order authorizes these units
to tnke the place of the local troops
drafted into the federal service. When
such troops have been organized, in
spected and recognized as the duly con
stituted National Guard of Hawaii, the
/ federal government will comply with
! the requirements Of law by furnishing
them such arms, clothing and equip
ment as may be available after the
needs of all the troops in federal serV'
+ ice have been met.
| But as the letter of the secretary of
war shows, no such recognition can
now be secured.

HU|S TO
Be STRICTLY KAPU
Republicans Are Starting Organ
ization Plans and win Com.
plete Them Thursday

Determined that the Republican par
ty of the. Territory of Hawaii shall
not forfeit its organizations nor take
any chances with the McCandless Dem.
ocrats and their candidates in the com.
ing elections, the Republican Territor-
ial central committees executive COM
mittee held an important meeting yes,
terday morning and resolved to raise
sum limited to $4,000 for the expenses
of the campaign.
To carry out this financial policy q
finance committee was named, eensist-
ing of George w. Smith, A. Lewis, Jr.,
r. w. Shingle, as the committee pro.
per, who will cooperate with A. w. Van
Nalkenburg, treasurer Of the central
committee.
Another important departure taken
by the executive committee was the de-
cision to so conduct the primary cam.
cOmbin tions, OF little huis, among the
candidates, which has a tendency TO
breed bitterness and more or less "cut.
ting" of the ticket at election.
With the idea of conducting a
straight and above board campaign the
committee has called a special meet
ing of all the Republican candidates
in the Office Of R. w. Breckons for next
Thursday evening, to decide upon meth
OILS of campaign procedure with the
view in mind Of educating the general
public more completely in its choice Of
nominees for the party and to avoid
the possibilities Of "knifing" during
the campaign, or after.
1t is proposed to hold public meetings
at which every candidate will have
the same chance as any other candi
date to place his case and arguments
before the people, and all Of these meet
ings will be conducted by the officers
of the central committee, of which
Clarence Crabbe is chairman, and E.
A. Berndt is secretary.
