SUPERINTENDENT
MAKES VISIT TO KAUAI

Mr.. r. L. Cooke, wireless superin-
tendent of the Mutual Telephone Co.,
to Saturday last week. He came to
make temporary repairs on the guy
ing cables of the mast, pending the
arrival of shipment of up-to-date in
sulators from the coast. When these
are received an entire new set of
cables will take the place of those now
doing duty. This will be partly in
preparation for the new wireless tele-
phone system soon to be installed.

SOCCER GAMES
LAST SUNDAY

The Makaweli and Lihue soccer
teams played 2 to 2 tie game at
Lihue Sunday, most of which was i'll
pouring rain. The halves were Of 80
minutes and were very fast and full
of good play in spite of the rain and
slippery condition of the field.
Three Goals in Four Minutes
Three goals were made in the first
half two by Makaweli and one by
Lihue, all in the space of four minutes.
That is a feat not often seen on Kauai
where goals are scarcity and hard
to get.
Makaweli got the first goal of the
day when Carmichael shot one after
fifteen minutes of strenuous play. Two
minutes later Cation repeated the
trick for the visitors. This got the
Lihue boys started, and Christian put
one through for his team just two
minutes after Cations.
There Was Much Skidding
The second half was whirlwind
affair, and the way the boys skidded
around over the slippery field remind
ed one of bunch of novices learning
to skate.
Back and forth the ball went from
one end of the field to the other, with
Makaweli expending every ounce of
energy trying to clinch their advantage
with another goaIS and Lihue fighting
desperately to overcome their oppon-
ent's lead
There were no brilliant plays made
because the ball was so slippery no
player could tell where it would go
when he kicked it. 1t was not until
23 minutes had passed before Lihue
got their second and tieing goal, when
Christian, who was playing 'out front"
for the first time this season, shot his
second goal for the day and proved
that he is some goal kicker as we'll as
the best goal keeper in the league.
McBryde-koloa Game
McBryde beat Koloa at Eleele by
score of l to 0.
koloa Forfeits Last Lihue Game
In the game between Koloa and Lii
hue on the 5th, Koloa, who won, play
ed an unregistered man, thereby for
feiting the game to Lihue. 1t is stated
on good authority that this was done
deliberately to reimburse Lihue for
the game they lost to Koloa by forfeit
through unknowingly playing an un-
signed man at the first of the season,
That is true sportsmanship.
Next Sunday Koloa and Makaweli
will play off their postponed game,
probably at Eleele. The week follow
ing Makaweli and Lihue will play over
their protested game. In the event that
Lihue should win from Makaweli they
will then be tied with McBryde for
the championship.

STORES
GUT OUT PROFIT

Prices Come Down with a tumble.
Shrinking Incomes, but high prices.
The great drop in the price of
sugar, and the consequent disappear
anceance of the bonus has so serious.
ly reduced the incomes of most
purchasers that there has been an
increasing demand for lower prices
for the necessities of life.
Ready to Meet the Demand
The Lihue Store realizing that this
demand was legitimate and well
founded, made the proposition to the
directors that an earnest effort be
made to meet this demand, and that
to this end all food stuffs be reduced
to cost price, cutting out tie dealers
profit.
Cut Out Dealers Profit
After careful consideration this
proposition was accepted and i'm
mediate measures were taken to
make new price lists, and inaugurate
sales accordingly. The new basis of
sales will be the cost price plus a
reasonable allowance Tor overhead ex-
pense.
Buy BY the Dozen and Save
Money
In addition to this very material
reduction, a considerable farther re-
duction will be given as an induce
ment to buy case goods in case lots.
For example, Eagle milk will sell by
the tin at 80 cents, 3 for 50, a dozen
for $685. and a case for $12.S5-a
saving of $1.65 on the case over buy
ing by the tin.
Rice At Loss
Rice on this basis is now selling at
$500, $3.50 and $40 a bag for the diff
ferent varieties, and is really selling
at loss of rs cents bag, consider
ing overhead expenses; but this is so
vital and staple an article of univer-
sal use, that this special concession
is made.
Sugar Way Down When Mill Starts
Sugar will have to remain at COM
paratively high price for a time, be-
cause it comes from Honolulu and
costs the Honolulu high price, but
just as soon as the mill starts it will
drop to suit the current price of sugar,
whatever that might be.
A Permanent Policy
This policy is being adopted as q
permanent one, not holiday season
continue indefinitely.
All American Factors Stores
Participate
The same policy and corresponding
prices are being adopted by the other
American Factors stores at Hanamau-
lu, Kealia and Koloa. 1t is a frank
and honest recognition of the policy
that the plantation stores should be
run for the benefit of the plantation
community.
Will Mean General Reduction
An almost inevitable outcome would
appear to be a general reduction on
the part of all other local dealers to
the same level of prices, and the same
policy. Only thus will they be able to
hold their trade, unless it be isolated
places, where outside competition does
not count

suRRENDERING TO BRITAIN

Al uW THAT 10000 gross tonnage Of German ships
~ has been turned over TO Great Britain following
President Wilson's order overrung Chairman Payne Of
the shipping Board the question has arisen what nation
will pay for the that have been sustained by virtue
Of the ideness Of the ships and the Of thousands
OF British seamen who shipped to New York In
September for the purpose Of manning the liners?
The puzzle Is. not what nation viii pay, but how the
question
President Wilson's decision is regarded by the British
as a triumph for the British.
II is quite possible that the British had received an
authoritative tip that they going TO win out on
the question what nation would get the ships else
they would have undertaken the expense and risk
Of sending their crews TO man them.
It is an American dollar TO a German mark that Mr.
Wilson's surrender to Great Britain will be unconditional
and that the United States will pay the losses and wages
President Wilson has consistently surrended TO Great
Britain eyeV his rst Inauguration, which he cee-
brated by changing his mind the Panama Canal tolls
question forcing the repeal Of the law which gave
free tolls to American coastwise vessels
The platform upon which he elected that year,
and which, he assured the people, was not molasses
to catch nes," declared:
I'VE favor the exemption from toll Of American ships
engaged in coaslse trade passing through the canal
But Great Britain did not favor that exemption, and
Mr. Wilson sided with her.
II you don't believe IT, ask Lloyd George who framed
up the slx-to-one vote in the league OF nations.

From the Ccn,reville Observer.
Faithful service always should be
rewarded Whether it is a man who
has devoted his life's work to the full
lliment Of some special mission, or
only the old family driving mare, who
has pl0dded over so many weary miles.
there should be some reward other
than the mere fulllment OF a legal
contract.
This morning The Observer calls at
ienti0n TO the efforts being made by the
good people or Queenstown and Car
michael. who in the fullness Of big.
sympathetic hearts, are making a com
mendable attempt TO have the govern
ment pension Fred Flamer. an aged
Negro. who for thirty years has car
ried the mail over the star route be-
tween Carmichael and Queenstown. In
all kinds Of weather, and under all sorts
Of adverse conditions, old Fred has
faithfully delivered the mail, year in
and year out, for a mere pittance.
During the last several months he
has grown so feeble that it is only a
matter Of time before he will be COM
PEELED to give up the work and let
some young man face the ordeals he
has met for more than a quarter Of a
century.
Perhaps there is no law 10 cover old
Fred's case. Perhaps the government
may not be able TO see that the old
oolOred man has rendered a service that
has meant something more than the
mere fulflment Of his duty. For he
has taken real pride in carrying out
his work, and now the inflrmities Of
old age are about TO call a halt A pc
tition is being circulated TO get the
government 10 grant him a pension.
Those who favor reward for service
