Haleakala Climber
Suffers For Water

There was a bold brave traveller
who last Saturday set out to conquer
the ascent to Haleakala with a motor
cycle. He took with him grub and
two bottles of soda pop. The ascent
was made in fairly good time, that is
until nightfall, at which time the
traveller had not yet reached the top.
In attempting to take a short cut he
got lost and when night fell decided
to make the best of the situation
and made camp for the night.
One of the bottles of pop went to
wash down the food. About IL o'clock
the cold woke the conquerer of Hale
akala and he built a fire and took a
swig at the other bottle of soda wa
ter. Several swigs more during the
night and by morning there was but
little left.
Nothing daunted he went on toward
the top, hoping to find the rest house,
but unfortunately he went about
three miles north of the spot where
the rest house stands. He took some
pictures and hunted around for the
house, but could not find it, and final
ly thirst drove him back down the
mountain. The motorcycle gave no
trouble going up or coming down the
steep ascent, but when it got on the
smooth road near Waikiki, with the
~perversity of inanimate things, it
stopped and refused to bulge or even
give a cough. The doughty traveller
p%erforce had to ride into town with
the cycle trailing disconsolately be-
hind, as his "a hours without water
had considerably weakened him and
made the continuation of the journey
afoot impossible.

Tobacco SCavengers
Will Miss Americans

PARIS, April 30-(Associated Press
BY nc one will the departure of
the American soldiers from Paris be
more keenly felt than by the humble
'negottiers"-the pickers-up of cigar
stubs and cigarette ends. This has
been a golden time for them, an
Papa Cinquante," who is the recog-
nized boss of the trade and employs
some thirty pickers, replies disdain-
fully when folks grumble to him about
the scarcity of tobacco.
There's always tobacco where Am
orleans are" he says. my men
follow them up. Fine fellows! They
smoke good stuff, and, what's better,
they just chew their cigars and throw
away half of them. That's where we
gather in our little harvest. The quail
ity of my tobacco has gone up sew
eral degrees" and he grinned.
Just now business is ine," he
went on. People are beginning to
sit outside the cafes again, and my
men pick up all the flag ends on the
sidewalk. Another squad cleans up
the music hall lounges early in the
morning. People smoke more than
ever"
Out in the Latin quarter, Papa
Cinquante has a drying and sorting
shed, where the cigar stubs are cut
up and make into pipe mixture, and
the cigarette ends are sifted and turn
ed into new smokes. He pays from
IS cents to $1,25 a pound for the raw
material, according to quality" he
says.

Americans In Siberia

TOXIC, April % - ASSOCIATED
Press)-Virtually all the Toxic news
papers published today an item read
ing as follows:
"a despatch from Verkne Udinsk,
Siberia, Con the Trans-Siberian rail
way east of Lake BaikaD received at
a certain quarter, says: Two batta-
lions of American troops have recent
ly arrived here. There are no bar
racks available at Chita for quarter
ing troops and the American troops
have had to live on board trains for
a long time owing to a lack of lodg-
ings. Moreover, they have come to
Verkne Udinsk without negotiating
with the Japanese or Russian authori-
ties beforehand. This attitude of
the American army which has hither-
to complained about the insufficient
railway transportation, but which is
now employing many railway cars at
the expense of general railway trans
portation is criticized in various quar-
ters as an act of incongruity.'
"a certain quarter" is the term
usually employed to signify the Fore
ign Office of the Wal Department.

First BaCCalaureate
OF Maui High Given

The June vesper service of the
Makawao Union church was the
B~accalaureate for the class of 1919
of the Maui high school. Previously
the high school classes have respond
ed to the invitation to worship in this
church by this year the graduating
class decided to have a real service
of their own, such as is usual on the
mainland.
The school song which was com
posed by Mile. Cecyl Holiday was
used as a professional with a large
chorus of students. The school
quartet sang There is a City" by
Shelley. Mr.. H. w. Baldwin gave
1T Is Enough" from the Elijah"
Mr.. r. ]. Vilim who has recently
moved to Maui played a violin solo.
Miss Mabel Jones was at the organ.
The theme of the evening was
1.-The Spiritual Harvest of Life" Is
contrasted with the harvest of the
flesh. The pastor, the Rev. A. Craig
Bowdish, emphasized the widely
divergent elements of life which bring
more and more with the later years
of the individual either the vices or
the virtues of life. The flesh uncon-
trolled or not kept under the higher
powers Of life will bring forth vices
and crimes and all the unlovely side
of character as Paul as outlined in
| his letter to the Galatians, the fifth
chapter. Any n who reads or OBJ
serves can see how often men and
women allow the flesh to run riot, on
| the other hand the spirit brings out
all the virtues which are the basis Of
| character, the strength of the home,
| the saving power of civilization and
the value of immortality. An in
~tellectual education opens up the
facts of life, but the spirit interprets
the facts and relations of life to the
uplift and worth of the individual in
the light of Gods truth and love.
After the sermon Mr.. Bowdish ask
ed the class to rise and addressed
them with a few words of good coun-
sci.

CompoSes Song
For Maui High

The Maui News prints herewith
poem especially composed for the
Maui High school by Mile. Cecyl Hol-
liday, which has been sent to us by
the Department of Public Instruction
at Honolulu:
We have come, dear Maui High
School,
In these days Of youth,
Here to find u JOY and pleasure
In the search fot truth.
Many studies you assign us
Brit we like eacI one;
And in this our stride for knowledge
Leave no task undone.
CHORUS
Maui High, we all do praise thee
For thy wise and kindly rule;
'Tis with loving hearts we greet thee,
Our dear Island School.
IT'S with loving hearts We greet thee,
Maui High, our Island School.
Drill and baseball, fun and frolic,
On thy g~reensward free,
Games and dancing, children's voices
Fill the air with glee,
Blithesome music, song and laughter,
Hours of glad content,
In the shadow of thy portals
Thus our days are spent.
} CHORUS
Billows blue roll softly, gently,
Sunshine CLEANS on high,
Giant mountains tower above thee,
Breezes round thee sigh;
And the lessons these would teach us
To be brave and true,
Gentle, patient, strong and faithful
Our School teaches, too.
CHORUS
When our school days here are ended
And in all our might
We 90 forth to do our duty
And for truth to fight,
Let US feep in mind the watchword
We have learned each day
Play the game and play it fairly"
Honor Maui nei!
CHORUS
-CECYL HOLIDAY.

conditions are such al to stimulate

the very general relation between
such department and changes in the

-Taxicabs are to have a new com

mostly to the American army. Five
hundred side-cars are to be licensed
to ply for hire at about twenty cents
a mile.
The American army has made great
use of side-cars in Paris and their
hardness has appealed to everybody,
OF course there is the draw back that
a side-car a only carry n pass

ZenO X. Myers
Dies Suddenly
WellknOwn Kamaiina Of Honolulu
Passes Away At Hospital Many
Maui Friends Mourn His Going -
Had Held Many Prominent Offices

Many friends on Maui mourn the
sudden taking away of Zeno X. Myers
of Honolulu, who died Saturday night
at the Queens hospital. Among those
will be Alfred Wadsworth, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. R. A. Wadsworth, who
has been in the employ of Mr.. Myers
for a number of months, as well as
many kamaainas of the Valley Isle.
Mr.. Myers was a kamaaina of long
standing, having come to Honolulu
more than 35 years ago. Although
never a politician himself, he vas al
ways a member of hat important lit
tie coterie that formed the power be-
hind the candidate whenever a ques-
ton of civic righteousness was at
stake. During the 35 years of his
stay in Honolulu he has been promin-
emily associated with many of the
most important business ventures,
and especially at this time of post
bellum reconstruction his constructive
business mind will be sadly missed
by his business associates.
Mr. Myers was born in Compton
vile, Cal, July l, 1859, and at the
time Of his death was a few days
short of 60 years of age. After
graduating from the University of
Oregon, he came to Honolulu in the
early SOS, and here married Mary
Lowden in March, 1886. Under the
monarchy he was superintendent of
the money order department of the
Hawaiian post office, was later secre-
tary and associate manager of the
Hawaiian Trust company, cashier and
associate manager of the North Brit
ish and Mercantile Insurance COM
pany, and thereafter organized and
managed the First Trust company of
Hno. Upon his return to Honolulu
he organized the Home Insurance
company, which he has managed
since 1909.
Several years ago he was chairman
of the Hawaii Promotion committee,
and in that capacity did much cor
structive work in advertising Hawaii,
He was also a strong believer in the
attractions of the land of his adoption
and through his mainland insurance
connections was able to obtain much
publicity for the islands.
Mr.. Myers was one Of the main
stays of the local Knights of Pythias
and socially both Mr.. and Mrs. Myers
were among the most popular of the
members of the kamaaina set. He is
survived by his widow.
Funeral services were held Monday
afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Contra.
Union Church. The pail bearers
were: Sherwood Lowrey, Willard
Brown, M. V. Ferreira, Stanton
Wyatt, Ormond Wall, Stanley Ken
nedy, w. w. Thayer and John Clark
