IT'S GREAT IF YOU DON'T WEAKEN

First they wondered who would be candidates for the election to
the various offices. Then the candidates finally came out and announc-
ed themselves. The ageod fight of honesty and integrity against graft
and politics was started in Honolulu several months ago and the fur
flew for many days. The things the alleged CRATER called the honest
man were awful, and the exposes the honest man made of the grafters
dealings were scandalous, and between them both and their numerous
adherens there was a lot of hot air spilled, sending up the temperatures
of not only Honolulu but all the other islands.
Last Tuesday they finished the fight between themselves and gave
the peepul a chance to say which one they wanted, and the peepul
either because they thought long and hard or else because they just
said, "Well that guys been in long enough, we'll give the other fellow
a chance" elected the honest man. We are wondering now whether
The honest man is going to stay honest.
That was Honolulu. In Maui they also had an election. But YOU
wouldn't have known it. Business went on as usual, and in fact a lot
board of supervisors at the primary election got elected this time, and
elected anyway. However, it gave the Democrats a chance to be heard
sooner or later, you know-and then Maui will sit back Just like Ho-
stay honest.
The game of politics is a great game, and it's quite exciting at
times. Especially if you have any skeletons in your closet. If you
haven't the skeletons your opponent will invent some anyway, and
you'll be kept busy refutng his statements. All of which is part of the
game. In the long run they all try to do their best, and each candidate
enters his new office with the highest kind of ideals. Unfortunately
however, for the poor peepul who are being ruled, some of the people
can't hang on other ideals very long, and so the public makes bets
with itself as to how long it will have to wait before the new broom be-
gins to wear down at the corners and the dirt is allowed to lie along the
however, that the honest man Won out. Maybe he'll be able to hang
on long enough to his ideals to accomplish some good. Even a little is
better than none at all, and if we take the word of the supporters of the
honest man the opponent didn't do no good nohow.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, May -
(By Associated Press)-The offer Of
an unusually large reward made
through the police for the return of

CUBAN MILLS WASTE MoLAssEs

HAVANA, April 25-(By Associa-
ted Press)-Great quantities of mo-
lasses are wasted by the sugar mills
of Cuba. Attempts have been made
to utilize this waste product as fuel
for the boilers of the sugar mills and
now a Cuban inventor claims he has
invented an apparatus which will per-
NIT the use of the molasses as fuel
without choking the furnances.
All the sugar mills produce more
molasses than can be marketed and
it is asserted, twice the amount need
ed to furnish fuel for steam power.

an encore he played Screiben's
"Pastorale." He also proved that he
could submerge the soloist into the
harmonic whole, by doing some beau
tiful accompanying in the trio work.
The ensemble work of the trio was
excellent and showed the results
which are gained only from much
hard work. All of the brothers pro-
nounced themselves in their concert
Tuesday night as musicians of no
mean ability. Their smoothness of
ensemble was shown particularly in
the rendition of the Rimsky-Korsakow
Romance Oriental" with its wierd
harmonies and the Dvorak Slav
Dance, both of them difficult by very
reason of their apparent simplicity
of composition. They played as an
encore Grieg's "Anitra's Dance" Maui
is glad the Cherniavsky's came and
will extend them an even more cordi-
al welcome if they should ever play
a return engagement.

Mail By Airplane
No Longer A Myth
Regular Service By Airplane Now
Established Between Principal
Cities East 0fThe Mississippi River
Means Quicker Service

Aeroplane service on the mainland
is now an established fast, and the
day will oon be coming when the in
terisland mail will be delivered by
aeroplanes. A notice which has Just
been received by The Maui News from
the office of the second assistant
Postmaster General at Washington
through the San Francisco post office,
advises that a regular air mail serv-
ice was established between Chicago
and Cleveland and Boston and New
York, on May Is. This means that
the delivery of letters to Cleveland
and Boston will be advanced 16 hours
and at Albany, New York and Spring
field, Mass, 6 hours from the time
they leave Chicago. 1t mean that in
Cleveland there will be afternoon de-
livery of mail instead OF next morn.
ing delivery, in New York City morn
ing delivery instead of afternoon de.
livery, and in Boston aftern ON, de-
livery istead of next morning de-
livery.
Special Clamps Provided
Special aeroplane stamps and
stamps marked "Air Mail" have been
provided for this service. The post
age charge for the service is 6 cents
per ounce and the use of a special
delivery stamp, it is announced, will
insure greater expedition of letters
at the points of delivery. The mails
for the west coast will be sent via
airplane and placed aboard trains at
chicago and Kansas City thus ensur-
ing expeditions delivery for the
west coast and Honolulu. Letters
now going from the islands to the
eastern cities and marked Air Mail
with the necessary postage attached,
will reach their destination much
more quickly, after being taken from
the steamers at San Francisco, than
formerly.
Such a service is a boon for the
merchants in these distant points,
and many Maui business say they
are now looking forward to the day
when it will be possible to mail a
letter in Honolulu in the morning and
have it reach Maui three hours later.

SECOND THE MOTION

The Hlo Tribune last week printed an editorial in which was adj
vocated the adoption of tree planting a a memorial for the boys who
fell on the battlefield in the great war against autocracy. The News
prints today a story Of the Memorial Day exercises at Georgetown
University, in which a tree was planted in memory of each Georgetown
student who lost his life, while an aviator circled above the as trees were
set. The News reprints in part the editorial and seconds the motion
heartily, for what better monument could we find than a beautiful
growing tree which every day brings a reminder of the life that was
noby sacrificed, and yearly grows more magnificent?
What monument could be SO fitting? Joyce Kimer, who gave his
life in France, wrote:
think that | shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her eafy hands to pray.
Poems are made by fools like me
But only God can make a tree.
And only God can make a monument suitable for the man who
lays down his life for his fenowmen.
What more appropriate monuments to our soldiers and sailors than
a tree planted on a lawn, a row of trees o. a street, or a park of trees?
From such planting will spring those big bodied, broad breasted, leaf
crowned temples wherein the winds of heaven sing ever their songs
shade of which young lovers plight their roth; about whose roots the
children play and voice their songs Of innocence and joy.
What more beautiful than a growing tree? Directly across the
way is a wide spreading acacia, its light green oval top purple brown
with a thousand blooms. 1t has been perhaps a hundred years in build
ing. 1t may well stand a thousand years more. Man, with his little
span of three score years and ten may fell it in an hour.
To put the markings of such a tree into the ground in memory of
a departed friend with the hope that it will some day be as beautiful
as this one across the sreet-surely that is an act of pure ideaism.
All the wealth of the world could not build such a monument. The
clements themselves must bring the living grains for its structure and
set them one by one, with infinite patience, into its growing body
Nature will, year after year make it larger, more beautiful, more fitting
as a monument to departed worth. Yearly it will send its roots deeper,
its crown higher, its branches wider; steadily it will grow in stature
and strength. Each day and each hour it will symbolic anew the
virtues Of him we loved and lost. Not only this generation, but those
to ONE will look upon it and remember the heroic deeds it was planted
to commemorate, the sacrifice made for country, the sacrifice for love.
in its spreading boughs will always pulsate the rhythmical measures of
the song of freedom which is Americas b%irthright.

HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN
BY HER HAIR

There Is real common sense In lust
noticing whether the hair is well kept
to judge Of a. womsn's neatness, or
good taste. II you are one Of the few
who try to make the most OF your
hair, remember that Il Is not advisable
10 wash the hair with any cleanser
made for all purposes, but always use
some good shampoo. You can enjoy
the very best by getting some canthrox
from your druggist. dissolve teaspoon
ful In a cup OF hot water. This makes
a full cup Of shampoo liquid, enough
so 1t is easy TO apply IL TO all the hair
instead OF just the top Of the head.
Dandruff, excess oil, and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. Your
hair will be so fluffy that IL viii look
much heavier than It Is. Its lustre and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.

By Special Correspondent.
TOTTENV1LLE, June 27.-Deputy
Police Commissioner John NJ. haw
with Police Inspector George Lebers
In charge OF the police on Staten Is
land, who inspected the other police
stations or the north side of the is
land the first of the week and found
conditions very bad at both the West
New Brighton and Stapleton stations
came to Tottenville yesterday and
found conditions at the station house
here even worse said the commission
err after he had been shown about the
place.
Commissioner Shaw made notes of
the condition of both the interior and
outside of the house with a view of
either having the city make repairs or
for the erection of n new station house
which is badly needed for the housing
of the force that includes. three lieu
tenants, four sergeants, twenty patrol
men and a captain. The T%ottenville
police station is the only structure
owned by the city of New York on the
Island as a station house the other
three all being leased. The building Is
a frame structure, three stories high
n a n story extension which is
used by the men for a sitting room.
Commissioner Shaw found this room
very unsanitary. the paper hanging
from the walls and ceiling and an old
fashion stove which is used to e
this room in the winter
The dormitories on the second
hoors were found i'm a most deplorable
condition. especially IN tho upper
1oor the men nearly freeze in the
winter time and roast in the summer
from the heat OF the tin roof. No
snly this but the house being old there
IS aid by the men to be much COM
pany in their beds OF numerous sup
ply of bed bugs TO keep them busy
during the night. There are no wash
rooms at the station house the men
al must use an old fashion sink in
the back room During the past sew
eral years both during this adminis-
lration and the n before plans have
been drawn at different times for re-
building the structure and making
niany changes. but nothing was ever
hone 10 improve the place.
Commissioner Shaw said he would
bring the matter strongly up TO the
city officials and ask that all of the
station Houses on the island have
something lone TO them at once for
The comfort of the men who are sta
toned there.
