There was quite a serious forest fire
at Wainiha on Saturday, which burned
over a tract of 200 acres or more in the
neighborhood of Tunnel 12, neal
Mauna Hina. Being mostly pail slopes
that were covered mainly with stag
horn fern, which will speedily recover
the loss to the forest was not serious
1t is an indication of abnormal weather
conditions when a forest fire is pos,
sible in Wainiha-it generally rains
too much.

THE BONUS

The payment Of the final instalment
of the plantation bonus of 37h per
cent is in hand. Grove Farm and
Koloa paid their quota last week, and
the other places will pay off during
this week. The total aggregate will
run we'll up toward s750,00O. 1t is pay
able mainly in bank notes, with just
rs much silver as may be needed to
make the change. Probably Kauai
has never been so rich before.

Judge Dickey Given
Farewell Dance

Mrs. Thurtell gave a very success
full dance at the Lihue Social Hall by
way of a farewell to Judge Dickey
last Wednesday evening. There were
upwards of hundred guests, with a
large predominance of the younger
people, full of life and enthusiasm. so
that the affair went with lots of snap
and interest. Everyone entered into
the spirit of the occasion, and every
one had good time.
The music for the occasion was
furnished by Caesar Andrade and his
musicians and made great hit with
the dancers.

The special Thanksgiving Service
Thursday morning was conducted by
Mr.. Warner with the assistance of Mr.

fine quality.

The Brookdale Boys
Have a Fine Time

The dance last Saturday even.
| ing at the Port Allen warehouse i'm
honor of the officers and cadets of
the United States Training Ship
Brookdale will long be remember
ed with pleasure by the people of
Kauai and by the crew of the
training ship.
Though the program of enter
tainment was not as extensive as
planned, owing to the boys having
to work ship, the dance made up
for what they missed along other
lines. Mr.. w. A. Beer, of Port
Allen, who had charge of the pro
gram of entertainment, simply did
wonders in transforming the big,
bare sugar warehouse into a fairy
land. The walls were fairly COW
cred with bunting and signal flags
from the BrOOkdale. while, sus-
pended from above, the full length
Of the long room. were thousands
of colorcd paper streamers. In
the center of the room, opposite
the main entrance. had been built
4 pavilion for the musicians, this
was built high so the dancers
could pass beneath it, and gave
a very novel effect.
President f. II. Broadbent, of
the Kauai Chamber of Commerce,
made short address of welcome
to the visitors, expressing our
pleasure in having them with us.
To put the young men at their
ease, Mr.. BrOadbent stated that
the ladies had consented to dis
pense with the formality of intro
ductions, and that the boys were
to feel at perfect liberty to ask
any lady present to dance. This
started the ball to going and it
was not long before the floor was
crowded with jolly bluejackets.
Behind a counter of pineapple
cases score or so of dainty Jap
anese maids dispensed a delicious
cool punch. The booth was liber-
ally patrOnized by all.
An interesting feature of the
occasion was a Ford animated
weekly depicting Hawaiian scenes,
which was thrown on the screen by
l.. \. Walworth, of the local Y.
At eleven o'clock ice cream and
cake were served, during which
the cadets entertained the assem-
blage with several well rendered
songs. After the refreshments
dancing was resumed until mid
night.
Sunday afternoon baseball
game was staged between the Nc
Bryde team and the visitors. This
proved TO be ii rather One-sided
affair as the boys from the ship
have very little opportunity to
practice They enjoyed themselv-
es, however, and took their defeat
with laugh.
The expression was general
throughout the ships company,
that they had not been so royalty
entertained, nor enjoyed them
selves so much, since their depart
ure from home.
The BrOokdale finished loading
pineapples and departed yester-
day afternoon for Honolulu, from
which port she will sail for
Seattle in Il few days.

Royal Reception to
Returned Soldiers

A well-arranged and enthusiastic
reception to the returned soldiers
of the vicinity was given at Ka-
paia Japanese school last Satur-
day night by the Japanese Young
Women's Association and the
Young Mems Self Help Associa-
ton. Over two hundred members
and invited guests were present.
The ex-soldiers, of whom there
were twelve in number, sat to-
gether in the front of the large
hall. and were further designated
by white flowers which they wore
in their lapels. The members of
the Young Women's Association
also sat in a body daintily arrayed
in white. The decoration of the
room was done entirely with Am
erican flags, and the spirit of love
and loyalty to the United States
pervaded the entire program.
Among the speakers chosen for
the occasion were Mr.. McCluskey
and Mr.. Jay o. Warner. Mr.. Nc
Cluskey's theme was "Racial
AmalgamatiOn in the Adaptive
Country" He traced the develop
ment of the English people from
early times and said no one speaks
of Normans or SaXOns or Britons
today, but only of the English
people. So also in America,
Americans were being composed
of many nationalities and that
gradually but inevitably the more
recently acquired Japanese citi-
zens would take up the customs
and methods of thought common
to Americans.
Mr.. Warmers subject was "Serv-
ice-The Secret of Americas Great
ness" He showed how the great
est Americans were those who
rendered or were rendering the
greatest service to their country
men, and not those who sought to
be served by the largest number.
This kind of service is freely given
out of sense Of duty and right,
not for money. Service is the
motto of modern American bust
ness. The president is the servant
of the people, the rich serve the
poor, the trOng the weak. Mr..
YamamotO of Eleele, and Alex
Akita acted as interpreters.
A pleasing feature of the exer-
cises was the excellent, playing of
the Kapaia Band, comprised of
young men who have studied band
music for less than year.

Senator Underwood
Expresses His Views
On The Race Problem
(Ry Associated Negro Press)

Birmingham, Ala, May 21.-United
States Senator Underwood was true to
the Southern conviction of justice.
when he was drawn out with refer
ence to the right of suffrage, and the
reconstruction problems with refer
ence to the Race.
The occasion was a gathering of
white southern women who were an
xious to draw out the senator on the
opposition he has shown to the rights
of women to vote. When the discus
sion finally reached the Race problem
ever present in southern discussions
of all kinds, the senator was asked if
it would not be possible for the state
to control the woman vote as it had
controlled the man vote.
He replied that the question would
of necessity be settled by the court,
that while the court by a divided vote
permitted southern states to control
the Negro male vote, he did not think
it the part of wisdom to run the risk
of contrary verdict in the present
He spoke of the contention of Lin
coin that the white man must control
and without attempt to offend, to the
activity Of Susan B. Anthony in en-
deavoring to institute Negro political
equality in the conquered South.
With reference to the disposition of
the Negro soldier, Senator Underwood
said: 81 would have the Negro soldier
return to the place he occupied before
the war; to take up his work where
he left it. to continue to live in peace
and amity with the white man. No
other order can be established-old
conditions must be resumed if all par
ties would avoid friction of the most
serious character"

up even more language than that. AT
present all parties in Germany are
protesting passionately against the
harsh terms imposed. and declaring
that they will not sign, but the. prob
ability is that they will sign, no mat,

way to refuse. It is said that there

ment. because they figure that ii
would mean the restoration of the
monarchy. In this, however, they are
mistaken. There is no sentiment, or
very little, apprehend, outside OF
Germany favorable to the restoration
of the monarchy. The German likes
to trade and make money. He also
has considerable national pride. He
does not relish having his country
permanently occupied by foreign
troops. He will be in favor of making
the best terms possible, with the hope
of getting out of them in some way
later. / believe that Germany will

Had Germany Won in 1918


But if the campaign of 1918 had
resulted in German victory, there
would have been no Russia except as
a part of the great Germanic empire.
There would have been no Italy in the
sense of separate and independent
power. Austria would have been re-
duced to place of complete subordi-
nation, and the only Balkan. nation
which would have retained the SEM
blance of independence would have
been Bulgaria. Turkey would have
come completely under German DOM
ination. France would have been
crippled beyond hope of revival as a
military or commercial nation. Bel
gium would have been absorbed by
Germany, as would Holland and Den
mark a little later Great Britain,
standing alone, could hardly have held
out, and if defeated, her fleet would
have been destroyed, her proud posi-
tion as mistress of the seas lost for
ever, her dominion of India and the
Suez canal gone with the rest of her
power and glory. Then, indeed, Ger
many would have been, literally a
worldwide power Her dominion of
Europe would have been complete; !;
her princes and her armies would
have enforced obedience from the
shores Of the Arctic ocean to the
warm waters Of the Persian gulf, and
would have dominated the continents

1t was then that, rapidly transfer
ring the milli9ns of troops from the
Russian frontier to the western front,
the French and British armies, wor-
ried and somewhat discouraged, were
confronted by largely superior num-
bers and driven back in what now
seems like a rout. Within a single
month virtually all the gains that had
been made since the battle of the
Marne, in the fall of 1914, were lost.
1t looked as if the German armies
would be able to drive a wedge be-
tween the French and British, cutting
off communication between the two.
Haig was frankly confessing that he
and his army were standing with their
backs against the wall. The French
were retreating, and the thunder of
German artillery was distinctly heard
in Paris. 1t is now known that Foch
almost despaired of being able to save
the French capital, while the ability
of the British army to prevent the
capture of the channel ports was also
in doubt. This was the gloomy stu
alton only ten short months ago.

No Wonder Wilhelm Was Optimistic

No Wonder Wilhelm Was Optimistic
At no time since the very beginning
of the war, when, according to Ger
man military calculations, France
would be defeated within month and
Russia within three or four, while
England would not be able to get any
army worth mentioning across the
English channel to the continent, had
the prospect for victory seemed so
bright to the kaiser and his military
advisors. There seemed to be a pros
pect for vastly greater German en-
pire than even they had dreamed Of.
At that time the destruction of Russia
was hardly contemplated. After the
defeat of the czar, it was, no doubt,
the plan of the kaiser and his mill
tary advisors to form an alliance with
Russia, with all the advantages, of
course, on the side of Germany, but
with the government of Russia still
preserved. Italy also was still an
ally, and while a subordinate member
of the German alliance would still be
rated as an Independent power.

A summary Of the terms offered to
Germany by all allied peace council,
which appears on this page, should
be carefully studied by every reader
and. if possible, preserved, for it is a
condensation of the most important
document ever issued by men in the
history of the world. There is no rec
ord of such drastic and humiliating
terms being offered to a defeated ma
tion by its conquerors 1t is almost
impossible to visualize the changed
world conditions of the present and
those Of only short year ago, or even
of ten months ago. Then it evidently
appeared to the war lord at Berlin
that his vaulting ambition was to be
realized and German arms to be vic
torious. True, the plans of the Ger
man military chiefs formulated long
before the great war began, and
worked out, as they believed, to ex-
actness in every detail, had been frus-
