J. {. Warner
Succeeds Loomis

The directors of the Kauai County
Young Mems Christian Association
held a meeting at the home of DR..
A. II. Waterhouse in Koloa last Fri
day afternoon. The main object OF
! the meeting was for the purpose of
making arrangements to secure a
successor to Secretary G. F. Loomis,
who has recently departed to take up
army work at Schofield Barracks.

responding with Lloyd r. Killam,
Secretary Territorial Executive Com
mittee, in regard to securing Mr..
Warner, who has recently been in
charge of the Boys Working Reserve
camp at Camp Baldwin, Makaweli.
AS a result of the correspondence
Mr.. Warner has consented to take
up the work on Kauai.
Mr.. Warner is a man of wide ex-
perience in Y. M. c. A. work, and the
board of directors consider them
selves very fortunate in securing his
SERVICES.
1t has been decided to station Mr..
Warner at Lihue; where he will be
more centrally located, and to trans
fer Mr.. Walworth to Eleele as great
part of his work among the Filipinos
is on that side of the island.
Mr. Walworth read a decidedly in
teresting report Of his work of the
past few months. This report went far
to prove that his work among the
Filipinos is we'll worth while.
The directors present were: 7.
Brandt, chairman; J. M. Lydgate,
secretary; X. Roendahf, treasurer;
]. X. Farley DR.. A. H. Waterhouse,
Judge L. A. Dickey, and X. c. Hopper.

Mr.. Wolters has been very active
in food production and conservation.
On trip over the plantation found Irish
potatoes, sweet potatoes and beans.
Gardens all look well. The plantation
encourages home gardening, about 10
acres being cultivated under planta-
tion supervision.
The above 10 acres has furnished
the plantation store with continuous
supply of Irish potatoes, 1902 pounds
being harvested since Jan. 1918. The
Irish potatoes are now running short
but sweet potatoes are taking their
place, 4152 pounds harvested already
and sold to plantation store.
An excellent crop of Guam corn is
being harvested. A cornmeal and
corn flour mill is being set up and
corn crop being ground into meal and
flour for the plantation store Mill has
a large capacity and outsiders are
having their corn ground there.
War Gardens

Cocoanuts and Copra
Called on Mr.. Hills regarding the
marketing of copra. lie controls
several cocoanut paintings but is un
able to market in the islands. In
order to ship to the mainland. a local
inspector must first pass on the ship
ment to prevent the transportation
of pests to the coast. Arrangements
are being made with the Department
of Agriculture and Forestry to appoint
a local inspector so that shipments
can be made direct from the island to
the coast. Rehandling in Honolulu
would then be avoided.
Huleia Rice
There are about siXty-five acres of
rice land in Huleia, most of which
VII be cropped twice this year. In a
few weeks all the second crop will be
in and some sort of estimate can be
given of the harvest. Planters them
selves cannot say as to the exact acre

LET'S HAVE A SHOWDOWN

Local merchants are justified in demanding to know why they
should be made to close their business at 6 o'clock four nights in the
week when every other place in the state, from the humblest vii
lage TO the greatest city, is doing business as usual.
If the county fuel administrator has orders from the state adj
ministrator to close all business houses at 6 o'clock on Monday, Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday nights, why have not the other county
fuel administrators received the same instructionsi If the admins
traitors have the same instructions, why are they not enforcing themf
If they are not going to enforce the order in other counties, why
should Middlesex be the goatf
But, it seems, Middlesex as a whole is not obeying any such dras-
tic orders. New Brunswick, Metuchen and every other Middlesex
municipality are not closing early. Why should Perth Amboy be
singled out by the county administrator to suffer thusyf
Perhaps the county fuel administrator can show orders from
superior authority for the action he has taken, but ~ doubt if he
can explain why such an order applies exclusively to Perth Amboy,
of all the places that come under his Jurisdiction as far as fuel is
concerned.
We understand that a special meeting of the Board of Alder
men is to be held when the fuel administrator will be given an oppor-
tunity to present his credentials and show by what authority he is
acting. 1t Is time some steps were taken to SCI who is running this
city. 1t is little short of an insult to the intelligence of the commun-
iy that one man who holds no elective office whatever, should gradu-
ally usurp the powers of duly elected officials; become, in a sense, the
supreme dictator for the city; ordering this or that and domineering
in the most highhanded manner.
The limit has about been reached. 1t is time to call a halt. If
there are any little czars to be set up in Perth Amboy the people
ought to be made aware of tbs fact so that they can conduct them
selves accordingly. Let's have = showdown ~ wv in regard to

all adverse, while the u is friendly.
Religious unrest and discussions
that arouse a~ntagonisms are forecast
by the tai There appears to be
danger of suspicious and calumnies
for political ends.
This Is q day in which to visit
friends and relatives. 1t should be
lucky to seek those who may bestow
favors and benefits, for the Sun is in
an aspect believed to impart kindness
and generosity.
There is a sign read as sinister for
charitable or philanthropic appeals.
Attacks on famous organizations are
prophesied. These may reflect on
management and on the personnel OF
executive divisions.
Saturn is in a place hat the an
clients believed was very threatening
to those who have accumulated great
wealth or unusual power. This planet
Is supposed to take away material pos
sessions in order to insure spiritual de-
velopment.
1t is not a favorable day for letter
writing, especially when a fiancee or
lover is addressed. Uranus is held to
be in a position making for misunder-
standing. CRITICISM and disillusion-
ment.
The planets with malefc power are
read to be in aspects encouraging gos-
sip. scandal and libel of every sort.
After much evil report has prevailed
there will be q new understanding OF
the danger of thinking or speaking
with unkind intent. III coming era

stroying mems reputation as we'll as

Galeana D'Andalo.

Galeana D'Andalo lived in the thir-
teenth century. She was a scion OF
the noble house of Saviolo of Bo-

council of Bologna to go to Rome
where the corrupt administration
wished to make him a senator. He
declined to go until they sen hostages

Rome, leaving Galeana behind. The
latter. not receiving word from her
husband for many weeks, fastened to
Rome to find him in q dungeon and
his life menaced. She went before the
