CITY CELEBRATING
 RETURN OF PEACE
Both White and COlOred POpula- tiOn Give Vent to Feelings By Shooting of Guns, Parades Public Speakings, Etc.

When the news was received in Prescott that Germany had signed the armistice terms, which practically means the end of the world war, the city got out it's supply of ammunition and guns of all calibres, except those with the Maxim silencers attached, and after using their home reserve supply, made a raid on the ammuni- ton stores. Every whistle in the city was tied down, bells were rung, the human voice was put into use where nothing else was available and the entire morning was devoted to mak- ing a joyful sound. The negro popu- lation soon congregated and formed parade with dummy figure of the ex-kaiser nailed to a cross on the front vehicle, attracting considerable attention. The white and colored people formed a parade this afternoon at 1 o'clock at Rice's Drug Store, in- cluding about 150 automobiles and other vehicles decorated with allied flags. The parade ended at the city park where number of speeches were made. All the places of business were closed from noon to o'clock Services of thanksgiving will be held at the churches tonight.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH NOTES

There was a very good congrega- tion at the Presbyterian church yes terday morning, who listened atten- lively to an unusually good sermon broad, liberal and patriotic. Pastors were requested to preach on War Work campaign, and Dr. Williams ex- plained why Protestants should help the Jew and the Catholic. He re- minded us that we owe the Jew our Bible, our church and our Christ, and pointed out that the Catholics wor- ship the same God and Christ and have practically the same Bible as Protestants. He hoped that there would be two big funerals after the war;" and sectarianism and sectional ism buried in deep graves, etc.
 In the evening fair sized audience heard another good sermon on Judas Went to His Place"
 The attendance at Sunday school was 9l and the offering was $5.79. The church was decorated in quanti- ties of yellow, russet and brown au- tumn leaves, with vases and baskets of yellow Japanese cosmos.

METHODIST CHURCH NOTES

The Sunday school attendance at 9:45 was as good as the average, 135 being present, IS new pupils being enrolled, ' visitors present and the offering was $5.30, which seems too low compared with the attendance, be- ing an average per capita of only 1 cents. The Sunday school was indeed glad to have the superintendent, C, C.. Calhoun back again.
 At the Il o'clock preaching service, the sermon by the pastor on What Shall 1 Do With Jesus" was delivered to a large congregation, the lessons were we'll brought out and delivered in such a manner as to impress his hearers forcibly. A splendid sermon and well received.
 The League service was honored with the presence of number of vis- itors and the subject of Church Ex- tension" was exceptionally well dis cussed by those on program, special music, duet was rendered by Misses Alvearne and Lula Bet Gee. and also one by a couple of small girls. Mrs. Irwin Blakely was leader. A commit tee of four from the League accom- panied by the pastor visited all the patients at the Greeson sanitarium and held prayer service. A similar committee will visit the sick in town each Sunday afternoon
 The evening preaching service was not attended by as large a crowd as

THE German drive, crushing forward by re-
4 peated thrusts of the Kaiser's hordes regard
less OF the slaughter each drive costs him, is not
the annihilating blow the Kaiser planned.
Foch says "Wait bit, wait Bit. .a,.-.tg -.
AS the Americans waited for the whites Of their
eyes" at Bunker Hill, Foch is patiently waiting
with his reserves to smash home the one punch
needed to crack the German armor
Shells by the million have been dropped on the
close-massed Boche ranks as they herd up to the
line. Hundreds of tons of high explosives have
been dropped on German troop and supply trains
and on masses of German troops waiting to attack
by low flying Allied airplanes.
Machine guns, rifles, trench mortars have spat
bullets and bombs until their red heat refused
longer to spare the gunners' hands.
The French have held the Boche. He has thrown
his millions against the British lines, revealing
the true motive of his battles. He coveted French
territory He hates British blood. Had the Bri-
ton not needed the scrap Of paper, the Hun
would have finished off the French, and then sat
lated his all-consuming hatred of the British by
slaughter of unprepared England at his leisure.
And then could have stopped his conquest

GOATS. Of kAHOOLAWE
=. must: Co, IS ORDER

Following thu withdrawal by the
Governor of Kahoolawe Island from
the Kahoolawe forest reserve and its
transfer to the land department, it is
intended by the administration to lease
the island under a number of restric-
tons, chief of which is that all of
the goats on it be exterminated.
In making the change it was an
nounced that the purpose of the lease
to be given will be to develop the is.
land rather than to obtain a high
rental for it, which might force ex-
ploitation.
II is intended that one of the pro-
visions Of the lease will be that not
moro than 200 head of beef cattle be
pastured on the island though this
number may be increased in the dis.
erection of the land commissioner. 1t
is also intended to pasture a number
of horses with the purpose of spread
ing the growth of kiawe trees. Rigid
rules are to be put in force to guard
against danger from fire and some
system of supplying water for a lessee
is also to be decided upon.

ENABLES COMPANY TO MEET
GOVERNMENT REoUlREMENTS
Concrete Structure Largest Ever
Undertaken In the
Territory

improvements and = extensions that
ultimately in the present year win run
to over $2so, 900 are being made by the
Hawaiian Pineapple company at its
plant in Iwilei iu order that the com
pany can comply with requirements(of
the government in transporting its
pack Of fruit which, has been ,pnrehas-
ed by the government.
The first part of the big work Of
Improvement, all Of which Is being
done by the Pacific Engineering Com.
pany, is hinge concrete warehouse, the
largest concrete structure every under
taken in the Territory. 1t Is rapidly
nearing completion. This with n huge
concrete loading platform viii cost in
the neighborhood Of $l50,000. 1t was
started as a rush order January l and
It is to betanished by May Is.
Another Unit f5,.r.
|. Every modern appliance for the stor.
age and efficient handling Of the com
pany 3 pack Of ,pineapples has been in
corporated in the new structure whose
two floors each have an area Of 10000
feet. Roughly the new structure Is rec
tangular in shape and the present plans
provide for an extension 70 IL which
will double, its size. The additional
construction Is to be started Just as
soon as the unit now being completed
is turned over to the company by the
contractors.
Incidental to the building Of the new
warehouse is q, new, plant to be erected
on the roof Of the structure. Here will
be manufactured candied pineapple,
new industry here.
Some idea of the size of the struc-
ture may be gained by the statement
that approximately, 100000 bags Of ce
ment and about 200 tons of steel re-
inforcing were used in building it.
Ar"'t the same amount of materials
win be used in the additional structure
that viii be added to the present one.
-. dlng Platform
The eor"rotn loading platform has
an area Of 10000 square feet and in
,UrpOrated into it is an oil tank elev-
en- feet deep and fifty feet in diameter.
This tank, which furnishes fuel for the
"annery, has capacity of $500 barrels
of OIL
The first floor of the new structure
is to be used for the, storage of the com
pany's canned product and on the sec
ond floor the empty cans that are made
on the premises are stored. What stor-
age space for empty cans is required is
shown by the fact that the August
pack, when the, plant . output reaches
its peak, is $4,000 cases. Two eleVa-
tfrs occupy theTeenter IT the abuilding9
These 60 to the roof where the can
died pineapple plant is located. '
A fact that may not be generally
known is that the American Can com
pany, which supplies the Pines company
with tin cans has its own plant on the
premises as part of the plant. 1t has
been found that this arrangement is
more economical than paying a royalty
to the can company for permission to
operate can making plant.
A detail of the new construction Is

in Honolulu, and the fourth in the Ter

.WJoRK of the food administration in this Ter,
w ritory was greatly assisted by the success
last season of war gardens. Again the people OF
Hawaii are asked to raise war garden. They
are urged to try and raise enough food to supply
household needs for year. War gardeners are
urged to make an estimate of what they likely
to require in the way OF food and then make an
effort to make the soil produce it
The hoe has become weapon of war. The food
situation was never more serious than Saw
ing food is one solution of the world shortage
substitution is another, but equally important is
the spring edict from the department Of agricul-
tt1re and the federal food administration that the
country must plant and produce more food this
wear than ever before
Mr. Hoover says that this demand must be APP
preciated and acted upon promptly by every home
in America. Every householder with even little
land to spare should buy hoe. The hoe should
becpsne the synbolEof self-sustaining, household
as regards garden foods. Every bag Of sweet Pota=
toes or taro and every pound of beans brought in
from the back yard releases that much more for
the current market and saves that much to ship
abroad.

Hollands Plight

DROBABLY the most ominous note that has
" been sounded recently from Europe is struck
Gby the German ultimstum TO Holland in which is
demanded the right to use the Dutch railroads
and canals for the transportation of war supplies
into Belgium The ultimatum Is on par with that
handed to Belgium at the Beginning of the war
the ultimatum that, produced the SCRAP of paper
and gave the first Indication to the world of the
War Of savsgery that had come
Holland is III a most precarous situation. "
she dare refuse the German demand she becomes
at once partner of Belgium, subject to the ~aroc
misery of invasion and with her territory certain
~ become the scenes OF more bloody battles. IT
she agrees TO the use other railroad and inter nal
waterways by the German military machin = she
violates her neutrality as against the Entente and
subjects her own coast to blockade. Should mat
ter drive her over the edge into alliance with the
Germans, she will be stripped instantly Of her
great colonial possessions and her coast will lie
open to bombardment by the Entente fleets and
invasion by the British and American armies.
Germany must be most desperate to invite the
hostility 81 Holland, The Dutch have a compact
army 81 no fiean proportions. Their borders are
lined with enfanglements and covered by elabor-
ate defense systems, Should she be forced into
war III The presentations Of her sovereign rights,
her territory would offer the Entente road into
Germany and her coast would permit the estab-
lishment by, the British Of naval bases close to the
Ems and Heligoland. &c..
q" The ultmatunt, as briefly sketched in the des-
patches, demands the right to purchase in and
export from Holland sand and gravel. The Dutch
have recently under pressure from the British,
prohibited such export as being material of war,
the materials being desired by the Germans for
the constructions Of aooncrete defenses in Belgium,
The real essence of the German design comes in
the further demand, however, Of the right to use
The Dutch railroads and canals for the transporta-
ton Of military supplies, ~
Should Holland grant this it would transform
their country from the Rhine south into tenn
porary German province. 1t would permit Ger
many to establish submarine base at Antwerp
and would transform the Scheldt into German
farbor, and this the Entente would not tolerate.
Undoubtedly Germany has claimed the right to
use the Dutch railroads and waterways on the
grounds that Great Britain and the United States
have seized and taken over forswar the greater
part Of the Dutch merchant marine Spacious
argument will attempt to draw a parallel between
what the Entente has done under Justification of
long established and recognized international law
and what the Germans are now demanding, in
aagrant violation Of international law and with no
further excuse than military necessity, the same
excuse that was used against Belgium and in ev-
cry subsequent Hun atrocity and outrage.

While he says the seizure Of the

the aid Of japan have done much
to solve the war shipping problem or

\ Another problem over which he il
