Puunene Poison
Bush Identified
Kps e,As Coral Plant Or Physic
aSany-Experiment Station Warns
Against Growing In Places Avail
able To Children.

A few weeks ago it was reported
that several children were critically
i'll in the Puunene hospital as the re-
suit OF eating the nut of bush the
name of which was unknown. The
japanese claimed the plant was a
native of Hawaii and called it Halea-
kala bell The Hawaiians objected to
this, stating the plants were brought
into the country by the Japanese.
The Maui News had a specimen of
the plant sent TO the experiment sta
ton Of the United States Department
of Agriculture at Honolulu, where the
plant was identified by j. K. Higgins,
hortculturist, who declared it to be
a native of tropical America, the West
Indies, Brazil and the western coast
of Africa and is popularity known as
the coral plant or physic nut. The
botanical name is Jathropha Multifida.
Director j. Nj. Westgate of the eX-
pertinent station has sent to The
Maui News for publication a brief
report on the plant in order that the
general public may be informed of the
dangers encountered by growing poi
sonous plants in public places.
Jathropha multifida, originally des
cribed by the Swedish botanist Lin
neaus, belongs to the Euphorbiaceae
family and is a native of Tropical
America, the West Indies, Brazil and
commonly called the Coral Plant or
Physic nut. A few OF the Jathrophas
are found in private gardens in Ho-
noiulu The green fruits of many of
the species of Jathropha are poison
Gus. Curcas one of the more COM
mon species of Jathropha has been
known to make children violently
sick on eating the green nuts. The
Jathrophas are cultivated for their
ornamental and curious leaves and
flowers and some are grown in he
tropics for medicinal purposes.
Botanical Description Of Jathropha
Juice milky, leaves alternate, sim
pie, usually plamately lobed, some
times pinnate and entire flowers
monoecious, rarely dioecious usually
with petals; sepals 3, more or less
connate at base, intricate; stamens
about 10, in two or more whirls, some
with filaments connate; ovary to s
celled one ovule in each cell.
The multifida species of Jathropha
is SHRUB 5-15 feet high, leaves palm
ately lobed I'll parted, glabrous be
low, the lobes narrow, AT inches long,
pinnately incised to entire, stipules
about y inch, long petiole not glab-
rous.
Children Should Be Cautioned
Nearly all the Euphorbias are poi
sonous. The milky acrid juices found
in the stems and green fruits contain
ricinoletic acid and some authors state
toXalbumins. Children should be

CITIZENS OF ALIENS
Excellent Work Done Through Classes
Conducted Under Auspices Of Bu-
reau of Naturalization.

Many aliens who enter the naturali-
cation courts as candidates for citi-
zenship are much better grounded in
the knowledge of American govern
ment and institutions than the average
native of this country. Indeed, some
aliens are able to answer questions
that the judges themselves are not
able to answer off-hand.
The reason for their excellent knowi-
edge of the American government lies
in the care taken by the citizenship
classes, now conducted in public
schools throughout the country by the
bureau Of naturalization, department
of labor, to inculcate thorough famil-
iarity with the institutions Of the land
of their adoption. The courses given
by these classes are designed to raise
the standard of citizenship by insur-
ing a preparation adequate to meet the
requirements Of the most exacting
state laws.
Naturalization Is a somewhat COM
plicated process at best, for not only
must the alien satisfy the require
ments Of the state in which he ex-
poets citizenship, but he must also
meet the demands Of the naturaliza-
ton court, which has the right to re-
ject his application, at its own dis
erection.
The citizenship classes aim to make
the way to citizenship as easy as pos
sible for men and women who are will
ing to fit themselves for it.-Grit.

Washington Authorities Turned Down
Suggestion That Was Made In

1t would be hard to say which of the
many impractical suggestions toward

individuals and were submitted to
Washington was the most imaginative,
but conscripting the busy bees GER
tainly deserves honorable mention.
Enormous numbers of these mellifer-
Gus or anthopilous aculeate hymenop-
ferrous insects, as the dictionary calls
them, were to be distributed by air
planes over the enemy trenches, pre-
sumably by dropping what might be
called bee-bombs, and the confusion
that would follow may easily be imag-
ined by anybody who has ever got into
trouble with q single beehive. But the
military experts failed to see the util-
ity of the scheme. Perhaps they fore
saw that the enemy would promptly
provide himself with netting and de-
wise bee-armor. The aviators who dis
tributed the bee-bombs would natural
~ have been called apiators. The idea
was ridiculous, but let those laugh who
have never thought Of something that
seemed sensible in the evening and alb

PROOF OF BIBLICAL TRUTH
Religious Writer Points Out Parallel
Between Germany and the Re-

The world war has brought to the
fore striking Illustrations Of the truth
of Bible doctrines as usually interpre-
ted by what is called the old theology.
Glance for moment at some of the
old Bible truths that the war has Illus
trated and indicated.
Take, for example, the fall Of man
as recounted in Genesis. Some have
had difficulty with this fundamental
doctrine Of the Bible. 1 was talking a
short time ago with brilliant young
college man, stepped in the scientific
skepticism Of the age, and he said:
.'But, doctor, think how irrational is
the theory that man fell In a garden.

powerful Gpdp'
l replied by pointing out the very
Interesting fact that modern Germany
also fell in a garden. There was not
country upon the earth more blest
and prosperous than Germany. Her
progress in all lines, except morals
and spirituality, had been marvellous.
IF she had remained true to right
ideals she would have gone on un-
doubtedly into the leadership of the
whole earth. But even in that garden
of prosperity and peace the devil of
selfishness, untruth and false ambition
entered, and the ruling classes fell,
and, like the fall in Eden, carried 9TH

FLAUNT WEALTH DUE TO WAR
Extravagances INDUCED in by Japan's
"NewIy Rich" Have Brought Forth
Bitter Condemnation.

Mr.. Shioiri, Tokyo barrister, in
the Horitsu Shimbun claw JournaD
refers to some remarkable examples
Of the extravaganza INDUCED in by
certain "narikin." 1t is said that a
well-known mine owner in Kyushu
gave a dinner party in Tokyo recently
to SO guests at 300 yen a head. The
caterer, somewhat at loss to know
how to ego the limit" provided a
"geisha" for each guest, engaging all
the most expensive members OF the
profession who were available.
A Kobe "narikin" entertained some
guests to dinner at a Tokyo restaurant
the other day, the cost per head being
100 yen. A "funa-narikin." during
stay at Ikao, ordered by telephone
from Tokyo restaurant two dishes Of
"unogidomburi" on condition that the
food should arrive hot after travelling
about 100 miles. The proprietor of
the restaurant took the order, engaged
a motorcar, fixed up a "bibachi" to
keep the food hot and delivered the
goods at the mountain resort In TWO
hours and a half, returning with 200
yen in his pocket.
Mr.. Shioiri fears there will be many
more cases of crazy waste of money
by ''narikip." who, he says, are stingy
enough in donating money for the re-
lief of the poor or sufferers from
calamities. 'IThey are simply mad
men whose actions corrupt public man.
ners and morals"
The Tokyo barrister thinks that Just
as it was legal under the feudal sys-
TEN to confiscate the property of such
swollen-headed men. it would be ad-
visable today to levy heavy impost
upon them SO that they may be pre-
vented from repeating such foolish ac-
lions as those referred to.
