ance OF 500 is convenience account for

These resolutions were presented by
a special committee composed of H. H.

B. Bowles. The discussion occupied the
entire meeting, and they were adopted
practically as presented.
Each to Adopt Own Method.
The procedure of collection of the
assessment is left to the individual
bank. but practically ALI the institu-
tions will adopt the simplest method,
that of deducting so cents a month
from each account which has averaged
less than 500 balance during any
month.
The effect of this will be to nullify
any interest which such depositors are
supposed to enjoy. in the cases where
banks pay a rate of interest on check
ing accounts.

such q service charge, 1t was stated at
the meeting last night. Such charges

Schools Honor Washington

Washington's Birthday was prettily
observed at the Lihue Public Schools
on Thursday afternoon. In default of
a suitable assembly room, the exer-
cises were given on the lawn OF the
open court between the buildings in
spite of the very uncertain weather
which threatened rain at any moment
Recitations, some very graceful folk
dances, motion songs by the little
ones, part recitations illustrative of
the lives of some of our great national
heroes, the adventures Of a little red
stamp, etc. The singing by the upper
grades in chorus was very well done,
and very effective.
Perhaps on the whole, the most
pleasing number on the program was
the folk dance, "Reaping the Flax,
with a very taking interlude motif.
The program was finally hurried to
a close by the down-pour OF rain
which fell in sheets, and which ma
rooned the audience for an hour or
so, and placed very temporary prem
ium on umbrellas.

of the character of Lincoln, they
played games of various kinds, new
and old, with much enthusiasm and
enjoyment. But the most successful
feature of the evening was the acting
out of original charades, some of them
very ingenious, and many of them
excellent local hits. Among the best
were Catskill, Ingratiate, Red Cross,
and the Garden Island. A little at sea

surprising facility, and soon became
very ready both in originating and
working out the charades.

Moving Picture Stunts

The world is not so very large,

note the side remarks INDUCED in by

here who have travelled largely. Such
exclamations as why, that is Grit
fiths Park, sure as you live. Just off
the Hollywood road, don't you know,
as you start up the grade leading up
over the summit and down toward
Glendale. And don't you remember
that cowboy scene the other night
when the little depot at Tropico was
shown?" Yes, and don't you know
we saw one of the trails in the park
only few nights ago? And the can
yon just above Santa Monica?" Yes,
and remember that sycamore tree
sitting on the peculiarly crooked
branches? | know right where it is
just on the edge of the little dry creek

you live. | have walked out on that
point many times, where Mary Pick
ford stands. And you know that old
boat they showed awhile ago? Well,
that was going right over North to-
ward the rocky island where the big
hotel used to be-"
"Yes, and don't you remember that
big scene few weeks ago when there
were so many soldiers riding at break
neck speed? That was out at Universal
City | remember that hill as we'll as
can be-"
"Yes, and don't you remember that
Coney Island scene? And the Hearst
news pictorials show places where l
have travelled"
Some of the night scenes of travelling
trains, shown recently, exhibited some
very ingenious Photographic work, and
some very attractive views, as well.
And many of the horseback riding
stunts, where the riders fall off, seem
to involve some very daring stunts.
For, notwithstanding that films are
often pieced, and other sections in
troduced where dummies are made
to play an important part, there are
many scenes which are genuine, and
procured only by the exhibition of the
greatest daring upon the part of riders.

Territorial Fair News.

Honolulu, Feb. 25-Hawaii's exhibits
vegetables at the territorial fair, June
10 to Is, may be inspected and judged
by experts of national repute, detailed
to Honolulu for the specific purpose
by the U. S. Bureau of Animal Indus
try and U. S. Bureau of Agriculture.
Acting on a suggestion from Harold
w. Rice, the fair commissioner repre-
senting the island of Maui, Chairmen
George H. Angus has written the De,
partment at Washington requesting
their cooperation and the appointment
of men for this work.
1t is believed the Departments will
be glad to assign experts, and that the
showing which island growers make
at the fair will open the eyes of the
mainland visitors and help to give
Hawaii a splendid advertisement in
the states.
1t is not with a view of getting ad-
vertisement on the mainland that the
experts are desired, however. The
fair commission wants the very best
advice for its exhibitors and the island
growers in general, that is to be had,
and the one sure way to get it is to
obtain as judges men known in Ameri-
ca as leaders in these industries. Sug-
gestiOns from such as these will be
heard and needed by local growers.
They will bring a spirit of optimism
and enthusiasm that should prove in
fectious, resulting in better livestock
breeding and more careful, intelligent
and intensive agriculture by the island
growers.
Though the Governments agents
are perhaps more busily occupied now
than ever before, because of the vital
need for greater food production
throughout the mainland, the fair is
inclined to believe two or three can be
spared to attend the territorial fair,
especially since the Honolulu exhi,
bition is to be held in June, a com,
paratively quiet summer month, when
the planting of crops in the states is
finished and early harvest has not yet
started,

In conclusion. we wish to call to
your Honor's attention the lack OF
vigilance. and the inattention on the
part OF the Deputy Sheriff of Hawai-.
hau. in not having witnesses in attend
ance. SO that their services could be
had when wanted. With this fact in
view, your Grand Jurors expect and
hope that the police department may
in future pay more attention to duty,
so that the investigation of cases by
