Used Trunk AS Bank
Robbers Steal $500
Filipinos Watched Till They Found
Where Cash Was Hidden, Then
Tapped The Sack When Owners
We're AT Movie Show

Because they thought their money
was safer in their own hands than IN
a bank, a Filipino named Agaton and
his wife are now out just $500. Three
other Filipinos are in the county Jail
and have confessed to the robbery,
but they blew in the cash in a few
days Of riotous living in Honolulu, so
Agaton and his wife are poorer In
pocket if richer in experience
Peter de la Cruz, an eX-convict,
Faustino Cabuhat, and Estanislao
Pangelinen, after several weeks of re-
connoitering, discovered that Agaton,
a Woodworking young machinist, was
keeping his savings in a trunk at his
home on Market street. On the night
of August 10, when they knew that
Agaton and his wife were at tn>
theater, they entered the house, anf
quickly made way with the money, do
ing it 50 skillfully that its loss was
not discovered for a week when an ad-
dition was to be made to the little
pile.
In the meantime the trio had gone
TO Honolulu, but suspicion had fas-
tened on them, and Sheriff Crowell
sent Officer Pedro Batista to the city
where they We're located and brough,
back. They will be tried at the COM
ing term of circuit court in October.

Sheriff CrOwell Is
Now Booze Inspector
Draws Nominal Pay--NO Licenses Yet
Applied For On Aaui May Send
All Orders To Honolulu Inspector
Will Keep Check On Doctors

Whether or not there will be any
liquor licenses at all granted by the
Maui license board, has not yet been
determined. Up to the present there
have been no application filed for the
privilege of handling such liquors as
the new prohibition law permits being
used for medical scientific and church
purposes, and because the total vol
ume of such sales on Maui promise
TO be small it is not probable that any
merchant wants it very badly. The
cost OF license if $50 a year for Wal
luku district, and $25 for other places
in the county.
The license board, at meeting held
few days ago, appointed Sheriff
Clem Croweli as inspector for the
board at a. salary of $40 per month
The chief duty of the inspector is to
sign permits for the purchase of LID
uor for any purpose, or for its i'm
portation. All physicians prescrip-
tions for liquor in Wailuku district
must also be countersigned by him.
In the other districts the government
physicians are to be deputy inspect
ors with authority to ok. prescrip-
tiOns, except of their own writing.
The liquor board will probably can
vass the physicians of Maui on the
advisability of having a licensed deal
er or dealers on Maui, and if it is
thought best to have such, will then
act accordingly.
In the meantime orders for liquor
for any purpose, properly vised, must
be sent to Honolulu to be filed. The
inspector, in these cases must furnish
also a transportation order to COM
mon carriers before the latter may
legally handle tn shipment.

Rice Out For Senate
Robinson Not To Run
Democratic Slate Still Kept Secret
Republican House ASpirantS All
Old Names - Little Interest In
Campaign This Year

The Maui democrats have still not
made public their slate, which is said
10 be virtually completed, but the no.
mination papers will probably he fill
ed in a day or two. The last day for
doing this is next Thursday.
The republican aspirants 20 legis-
lative honors now number for the
house and one for the senate. For
the place to be filed in the upper
house from Maui, Harold w. Rice has
finally offered to immediate himself on
the party alter for the good of the
territory. So far as is known at pre-
sent he will have a clear field in the
primaries for w. 7. Robinson has
declined to run for reelection on ac-
count of poor health, while Ed. Wal
aholo, who was also considering the
place, is also sick in Honolulu. j. w.
Kalua, who had had the matter in
mind, has apparently decided not to
run. +,
On the list for the lower house
there are now seven candidates for
the six places to be filled: A. f. Tav-
eres, NJ. G. Paschoal, John Brown, Jr,
and Levi Joseph are out for re-elec-
tion, while L. b. Kaumeheiwa, Robt
NaWahine and Jack Kanohi are will
ing to try for the nomination even
though they have been unsuccessful
in past efforts.
Outside of the several candidates
there is almost absolutely no interest
being shown in the coming campaign

New Garage Company
Making improvements

The recently organized Maui Gar
age & Transportation Co., Ltd, a
combination of a number of Wailuku
businesses, has begun work on the
reconstruction of a portion of the
main building, formerly occupied by
the lao Stables Co.
Provision is to be made for adequ-
ate offices on the makai side of the
property, as well as for a display
room where a line of automobile ac-

Maui agency for certain automobiles,
i'm which event it viii also have space
for suitably showing new cars to best
advantage.
The alterations will probably re-
quire several weeks, but the company
win then have perhaps the most at
tractive place of the kind on Maui.

sLAsKA'S SHARE IN
WINNING THE WAR

Il took her longer to get to Wash
ington to learn more about the worlds
food needs than it takes the food you
save to get to Europe, yet Mrs. Allen
Shattuck came all the way from Ju-
neau, Alaska, to take part in the con-
ference in home economics directors
of various States at the Food Admins
tration in Washington.
Mrs. Shattuck told most interest
ingly about the way food conserva-
ton had spread in Alaska. Conditions
are vastly different there - dwelling
places are so far apart, getting about
in winter is so difficult But these
are reckoned with in advance, and
are not even considered in the pro-
gram of work.
1--WE are doing our work in Alaska
through the United States Food Ad-
ministration alone" Mrs. Shattuck
said, "for we have no other agencies
to help us. The women who conduct
ed the campaign worked during the
cold weather in spite of the distance
and difficulties in getting about.
ly been very large considering our
population. Of course, it would not
look so great to you, who have such
great numbers of people SO close to-
gether. One thing that makes differ
ence with us is that practically all our
women are homemakers. Such wom-
en-, believe, are far more ready to
see and to help work at the food
problem than are apartment jewellers
or those who live in hotels. We han
die the problem directly. 1t is taken
care of in each home, and that is why
we have a high percentage of food
conservers in Alaska.
at would be an eXaggeration to say
that we have almost as many types in
Alaska as we have people. Yet that
statement would at least indicate the
diversity of our population. One thing,
however, that has proved to me that
patriotism and humanitarianism make
a universal appeal is that all these
different types have responded with
equal readiness to the demand of food
conservation.
when navigation opens we expect
to carry our work far and wide, and
we hope that there will not be fam
lily in all our great territory that is
not doing something for the war, that
seems so far away, but that is so close
to us because it vitality affects the
right of every man to carve out his
destiny, unhampered by the demands
| of despotism and militarism."

Intolerance.

The truth is, the notion that an In
tellectual recognition Of certain dog
mas is the essential condition of saliva
ton lies at the bottom of all intoler-
ance in matters of religion. Under this
impression, men are too apt to forget
that the great end of Christianity is
love, and that charity is it's browning
virtue; they overlook the beautiful sig
nifcance of the parable of the hereto
Samaritan and the orthodox Pharisee
and thus, by suffering theirsspeculative
opinions of the next world to make
them uncharitable and cruel in this,
they are really the worse for them,
even admitting them to be true.-Whit-

What Memory Is.

The popular notion that memory is
San association of ideas" is true.
Memory, plainly. is not only made up
of an association Of ideas but also of
associated impressions living things
receive. Such associations may be
due to real and necessary connections
such as iron bar" or to your mental
coupling up of such associations as
''blue funk" "sweet melody" pretty
girl" Habitual linkage makes the inn
preston frmer, the retention in mind
more durable and more simple han
die whereby the matter can be recalled

Last STAND OF Beavers.

Far up in the Businesses of the
southern Rockies, hidden in one of the
most inaccessible hooks that remain
in this country today, what is probably
the largest existing colony of beavers
has established itself for last stand.
The beaver was once one. of the most
abundant of our American animals, but
the ease with which he was trapped
and the value of his fur soon drove him
far on the road to extinction. Soon
only the most stringent Of protective
legislation was able to save him, but
now he seems to be coming back, "
and wherever he finds a favorable To-
cation he increases rapidly.

Der of determinations of the altitude

The trouble with the executive who
Is too inaccessible is that he loses more

In shutting others out, he shuts him
self in-away from the numerous adj

looking a man in the eye and hearing
his story, to get at the meat of stu.
alton. Most executives prefer to have
everything brought to their attention

saver, but my own experience has been
that it will pay to get all information

WHAT WHEAT CONTROL
HAS SAVED THE NATION

It is estimated by e. N. Fairchild, a
Cleveland, Ohio, miller of long expe-
rience and sound judgment, that near
ly $90O,000,000 have been saved the
American people on -four since last
July by the United States Food Ad-
ministration. Mr. Fairchild said re-
Gently in an interview, reported in the
American Grocer: 1T is an easy thing
for a person to criticize an official of
the Government, and criticizing seems
to be one of the traits of Americans.
1t is not difficult for us to recall that
a year ago, when America had not en-
tered the war against Germany and
there was no Food Administrator or
regulation of the markets, -four was
retailing at $40 a barrel This year,
with & smaller crop to work on and
the country in the midst of the war,
flour is averaging about S12 barrel
1t has been estimated that the annual
consumption of flour in this country
is one barrel per person in normal
times. There are about 110,000,000
people in the United States, and the
saving effected by the United States
Food Administration has been about
20 per cent Now, if it has managed
to save the country 81 on each barrel
consumed since it was founded, it is
readily seen that it has saved the peo-
pie sSS,000,000. By the same method
of figuring, if $40 has been saved on
each barrel the Food Administration
has saved us sSS0,OOO,OOO since July.
1 am not content to believe, however,
that it has saved us dollar less than
$50 barrel, or S1,760, 100000"
