CARRIER ROUTE SOON
Will Start From Haiku On March And Circle Around
Twenty Miles Among The Settlers, Doing A
Regular POStofice Business --- Those On The
Route REQUIRED To Have Mail Boxes

The postoffice department has or
dered a rural mail carrier route
started from the Haiku, Maui, post
office on March 1st., the carrier to go
over the route Mondays, Wednesdays
and Fridays, provided written agree
ments to put up approved mail boxes
are signed by the people living along
the route. The Haiku postmaster
has blank forms for this purpose, and
persons living along the route should
go to the Haiku postoffice as soon as
possible and sign agreements to put
up boxes.
To get the boxes at the lowest cost
the Haiku postmaster will order them
to be shipped from the coast all at
one time. The small boxes are large
enough for letters and magazines and
will cost about $3.50 delivered at
Haiku The large boxes, for letters,
magazines and packages, will cost
about SO. Patrons are expected to
pay for whichever box they want at
the time of signing the agreement to
put up a box.
The cost of the box is all that the
patron on a rural carrier route ever
pays for the service. This route from
Haiku will cost the government $500,
a year, and the carrier will do any
thing for a patron that postoffice

Maui To Witness
Some Big Tennis
Champions And Near Champions To
Appear On Puunene
Courts

Maui will quite likely witness some
classy tennis early in February. if the
plans of Mr.. d. G. Lindsay can be
successfully worked out. AL Castle.
who is now on the coast, has been
working on the general features of a
plan for visit to the Islands of some
of the best racqueteers, and, at the re-
quest of Mr.. Lindsay Maui is to be
considered in making up the timer
ary of the players.
Two of the noted American players
expected are Miss Mollie Burstedt
and Miss Mary Browne, the former in
the championship class and the lat
ter a close second. The mems dou-
bles champions of California will also
be here.
The tournament will take place on
the Puunene courts, and the dates
will be February 9, 10 and II.
Al. Castle and w. H. Hoogs. Jr.,
will accompany the visitors from Ho-
nolulu and will, also, play.
In addition to the scheduled pro-
gram, there will be ladies' exhibition
games.
The regular schedule will probably
include two mixed doubles and two
gentlemen doubles.
In event of Miss Burstedt not being
able to come, Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
Bundy will be here and the latter will
take her place. (Mrs. Bundy, it will
be remembered, was May Sutton,
champion).
This program will form the biggest

will do-sell stamps, collect and de-
liver mail, attend to money order and
registry business,-yet the patron,
like the person living in the city, pays
nothing for the service but the first
cost of box.
This rural route reaching into the
farm section opens fine opportunity
for the town people of Maui to get
fresh eggs and other farm produce
shipped TO them at a very small cost
for postage, and gives the farmer the
mail service of a city dweller.
People living away from the route
may put up box anywhere along
the road and the rural carrier will
attend to their mail the same as
though they lived near the road.
The route runs as follows From
Haiku postoffice across the home
stead crossroad to Cooper's corner,
then down the w. Kuiaha road to the
belt road at Wilbur's, then along the
belt road to the e. Kuiaha road, and
up same to the winery, then to-
wards Kokomo to Aheongs, then
down the w. Kuiaha road to Cooper's
corner again and back across the
homestead crossroad to the Manning
road at Whites corner, then up this
road to Kokomo and down past
Aiken's to the Haiku postoffice-
about 20 miles.

Giants Defeat BeautS
In First Paia Game

The first games in the Paia Winter
Baseball League series were played
at Paia last Sunday afternoon, and
attracted very large crowd of en-
thusiastic fans. There were no
charges for admission.
Father Francis was in general
charge, and threw the first ball over
the plate. Mr.. f. p. Rosecrans was
to have caught, but was not able to
be present at the time, so Sam Kaleo
took his place. Henry Robinson
swung the willow.
The first game was between the
Filipino and All Japanese team and
was quite sharply contested, although
a trifle one-sided. The score at the
end was to in favor of the JAP
anese.
The big game of the day was be-
tween Medeiros' Beauts and the
Giants. This was quite exciting.
Dutra, of Wailuku, pitched for the
Beauts until the last inning when he
was obliged to retire. The score
was then tied, to 8. A new pitcher
was put in, and the Giants found
him for two runs, giving them the
game, the score being to 8.
The start of the series was very
promising and undoubtedly great in
terest will be taken in it. The con-
test Is for a silver cup being put by
the Paia Store.
There will be another game next
Sunday.

Filipino Is Buried
Under Tons OF Sugar

An unusual accident happened at
the new sugar flume of the Kaeleku
Sugar Co., Hama district, Monday af-
ternoon, but fortunately no one was
killed and only one man injured
1t appears that while men were
working around under it, the bottom
of the box gave way and several tons
of sugar came down on them. One
man, a Filipino, was completely
buried, and it took twenty men about
four minutes to dig him out When
brought to the air he was almost
suffocated. The doctor happened to
be near and rushed the fellow to the
hospital where he received prompt
treatment. The next day he was out
of danger.
The man has since been released
from the hospital, none the worse for
his experience of being buried alive
in mass of sweetness. He will pro-
badly not care for sugar in his coffee,
however, in long time to come.

Japanese Is Drowned
In Sea At Kahului

The body of Sunkuro Tokuhisa,
aged 45, stevedore, of Kahului, was
found floating in the sea between the
beach road and Kahului wharf at an
early hour this morning.
DR.. VIM. Osmers examined the
corpse and, he finding no marks of vio-
lence, the police decided not to hold
an inquest, suicide evidently being
the cause of death.
Tokuhisa had been ailing long
time and was under treatment of DR..
Ohata, of Wailuku. Last night he
was very restless and was waited up
on by his wife until she fell asleep
at about IL o'clock. About 2 o'clock
the woman woke up to discover that
her husband was not there. She
gave the alarm and a search was in
stituted, but without result until this
morning, when the body was found,
as stated above
Deceased leaves a widow and FIVE
children. One of the sons is the well
known baseball player and athlete,
Manao, who is truck driver for the
Kahului Store.

parched corn alone for many days at
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration of
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
is reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 30
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by five BUSH

Corn has become the nations mo;n-

MAKING MEATLESS
DAYS PERMANENT.

In the meatless menu there is fer
tile field for developing new and nour-
ishing dishes, according to E. III. Niles,
writing in the Hotel Gazette, who be-
leves that the present shortage OF
meat and fats will not end with the
coming of peace, but may grow more
acute and continue for five or six
years, thus making it worth while to
develop menus of grain, vegetables
and fish on a more or less permanent
basis. Meat can be replaced by cereals
and other protein foods, or may be
served in very small portions as a fla
yoring for other food. In making up
meatless menus this author finds our
American Creole and southern cuisine
a broad field for investigation.
