1t was some time before the Eng
lish navigator understood that the
HawaiiAns thought him a god and
were paying him divine honors. When
he did understand ne did not unde-
ceive them. thinking their mistaken
idea insured the safety Of his crew
and himself. His reason played him
false and he paid for the error with
his life.
The natives soon began to have
doubts as to the divinity OF the SEEM
ing Lono and his Attendants. The
death of one OF the sailors was a
shock TO their faith, proving him
but mortal like themselves. They
were further dismayed when Captain
Cook. needing wood for fuel and re-
pairs, ordered his men to buy the
fence enclosing heiau, or sacred
temple. the posts OF which were cary
ed idols. Two iron hatchets were
offered in exchange for the fence, The
natives refused TO sell the sacred
wood and the sailors carried II of

Then. too, the expense OF entertain

the two weeks the ships had been in

famine. The people were delighted

quite cool They even stole some of
the tools that were put ashore to help
with the necessary repairs. Constant
friction developed between them and
the sailors.
On the evening of February - a
boat belonging to the Discovery was
stolen. The next day Captain Cook
went ashore. intending TO induce the
king to board his ship and there hold
him a prisoner until the boat was
returned. The king was willing 10 go.
but his subjects refused TO allow him
to submit 70 such an outrage. A

WILLAMETTE TAKES
CHAMPIONSHIP BY
BEATING PACIFIC

Pacific university's hopes for the
lnon-conference football title were
snuffed out Saturday by Willamette's

Willamette kicked off, but after an

Of several costly fumbles Pacific ao-
vanced to within four yards of the
goal, but was held for down.
In the second period the Bearcats
tried the aerial route, and passes to
Ganzans and>Wapato netted 80 yards.
A tumble gave the over to Pacific on
her 12-yard line and she advanced 20
yards on a punt exchange and line
bucks. On Gonham's tumble Fuliback
Rarey raced 80 yards through an open
field for the first touchdown.
Within three minutes six more
points were added to the score by
Dimick's touchdown. With good in
reference he went through tackle for
18 yards and drove over the line on
straight bucks.
Pacific made desperate attempts to
score in the second half. resorting to
considerable passing and both place
and drop kicking, which fell short.
One pass to Hoar netted 35 yards, but
Willamettes line was too strong for
gains.

San Francisco, CAL, Nov. 10.-The
fate of that new suit of clothes prob
ably depends upon meetings today be-
tween merchant tailors and their for
mer employees. Following the an
nouncement Of the Pacific Coast Mer-
chant Tailors' association that all

ers were meeting delegations of their
striking employees to explain the new
wage scale.
The employers, through Sam G.
Levy, president of the Merchant Tail
ors' association, said they ,"had no
grievance with legitimate organized
labor and stand ready at all times to
deal collectively with employees"
Claims that the leaders Of the strik-
ing tailors are radicals favoring the
Russian soviet form of government,
and that there absolutely is no doubt
the tailors are connected up with the
general red attempt to control the
country" We're made today by Levy.
"The $40, forty eight basis that we
are offering the men is four dollars
better than the wage scale in effect
in all eastern cities. A new one year
agreement for $36 per As hour week
was signed up in September between
eastern tailors unions and their en-
ployers." he said
The public will be able to get
clothes immediately for we expect the

To Make Potato Flour

Arrangements have been made In
Great Britain for the establishment of
mills for the production of potato
flour, which it is hoped will be on a
large scale. Although this industry
has been established on the Continent
for several years, it is a new one in
Great Britain. Before the war there
were 500 potato flour factories in
operation In Germany The present
estimate is that there are now over
1000 there. The British Ministry of
Foods has for some time been con-
ducting experiments in potato flour,
as there has been an over-production
or potatoes. and the flour will pro-
vide a means for the consumption Of
the over-supply.
