Orient Does Meet Occident
IN Hauaii, Now Radiatinp
Center for Democracy

To our school boys Hawaii Is an
American possession in the mid Paci-
fic. noted for the production Of sugar.
To our dance-mad grown-ups, Hawaii
Is the shaded land Of the uku-
lele. famous for its expectation Of
hula hula" music. How many know
that Hawaii is demooracy's radiating
plant for the Orient!
Kipling wrote that East is East
and West is West and never the two
will meet. Like countless others. the
late Jack London believed the barrack-
room poet until he discovered
Hawaii. Ever after, the American
took issue with the Britisher, and
they were at mental loggerheads.
For in little oceanic island. Jack.
the rover. had suddenly found the
meeting and the trysting place of the
Orient and the Occident.
Others besides London have taken
the Anglo-Indian poet too seriously.

SIMPLICITY TO MARK
PARLIAMENT OPENING

ondon. Feb. Ito set an example
to the British nation as an inaugura-
tiGn of a great economy campaign,
the King and Queen have decided to
abandon some of the costliest tradi-
tional court customs. it vas ap-
nounced today. No wells and festh-
ers will be worn on the opening of
parliament February 10. and the
sweeping court trains, so expensive
even before the war, will be dispensed
with.
King George has been devoting
much attention to a general reduction
of extravaganza in court dress and il
is predicted that st. James court will
before long be the most democratic
in Europe.
George Y. also is cutting down his
houSehoId stan. Furthermore the
King has sacrificed the privilege OF
inviting parliament to provide for
the expenses Of his younger children.
The Monarch will assign the revenue
from his duchy OF Lancsster-sS0o.O 900
to his children.
