FIND IN NEW
BENTON MINE

A strike recently made in the
Forman mine, near Benton, promises
TO renew the glory and record of the
old camp. 1t is in virgin ground, but
the ledge has every appearance oil be-
ing identical with that OF the old Di-
ana and Kerrick, money-makers of the
earlier period.
The claim is owned by w. Fl.
Davis, and is being operated by Sam
D Forman, under a lease He began
a new tunnel, and.at 100 feet cut into
the vein, seven or eight feet wide, and
with pay streak from three to eigh-
teen inches thick. It's ore is the "black
metal" that made Benton noted, and
found in few other localities, and the
ore known as partzite. Its values
principally silver, run into thousands
of dollars a ton. The higher grade
carries also three or four ounces of
gold. A little copper content is ap-
parent, the highest of this running to
four per cent.
A chute 60 feet long has been opened
through the ore. This and the fact
that the find of characteristic Benton
ore has been made in ground hitherto
unprospected, gives reason to hope
another mine of the kind that made
the camp noted may have been found.

School Notes
HAIKU CHILDREN THRIFTY

Editor Maui News:
Dear Sir: l am going to tell you
something about Arbor Day and
Thanksgiving Day.
On Arbor Day we planted about one
hundred trees. We planted a row of
40 eucalyptus trees in the plantation
garden for a wind break. w also
planted a long row of Christmas berry
trees by the front fence some papaias
and many other trees. The children
also brought many plants. These trees
will later on give good shade, make
good wind-breaks and make the APP
pearance of the school grounds more
beautiful.
On Thanksgiving Day we had many
kinds of exercises. There were talks
and songs by the teachers of the diff
ferent grades and there were also reel
tations and songs by the pupils of
different grades. We must be thank.
full this year for the good times we
have, for food, health, etc.
Mr.. Trask talked about savings. He
told us if we begin to save when we
are young we will 500 get the habit
of saving which is a very good thing
for us and for country.
The school has already collected
owe $500 and about lao pupils have
saving account this year.
The With and With grades have
100 percent of pupils with an account,
the third grade has nearly as much.
They have over 80 pupils started. The
small children in the la grade have
brought more money then any other
grade in the school.
We are now collecting money to
send to our orphan in France. We
will send it for Christmas for a Christ
mas present and as a Thanksgiving
We thank you for the Maui
News and will write you later about
our Christmas exercises.
Yours sincerely,
AKILA TADAKUMA.

VOTE RIGHT.

On .I,,Iy 27 an election will be held
| to determine whether or not the peo-
ple of Pensacola want good schools.
| If this election carries, bonds to the
sum of $500, 100000 will be issued Tor
the purpose of providing adequate
facilities for the Pensacola high school
and the grade schools.
The three men who are serving as
trustees for the special tax district
are men OF the highest integrity and
| have the confidence of the people OF
Pensacola, and it is believed that the
election will go in the affirmative by
large majority.
Back of the drive is a spirit that is
bound to succeed. The members of
the Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs have
been asked to help in the election
campaign, and other public spirited
citizens will lend their aid in what
will probably be the greatest educa-
tional campaign of this decade.
The people of Pensacola are aroused
to their needs. They showed this
when they chose as their high school
superintendent one of the ablest in
structors in the state, and one who
was given up with the utmost re-
luctance by the people of Miami,
whom he had so well served.
The Pensacola schools need good
instructors. The salaries OF the
teachers have been raised, and from
that standpoint, it looks as though
everything is to be very satisfac-
tory. But no teacher with any self
respect or civic pride will ever be sat
isfied to teach in Pensacola until the
buildings are more substantial, more
commodious and better equipped.
The schools of Pensacola have been
disgrace for the past six years or
more. With each year. as the popu-
lation increases, the need becomes
greater. q
OF what profit is it to any town. to
increase its population, if the town
is not big enough for the people L?
Pensacola wants more citizens. The
best and most stable citizen is the
family man. No man with family
is worth anything to a community
unless he has family pride. for with
out that he can never have civic
pride. No man with any pride wants
to make his home in a city unless
the children of that city are well
provided for
During the past few years Pensa-
cola has done much to overcome the
handicaps with which the education
al system of the city has been hams
pered. But the fact remains that to-
day. comparing the two communities,
Cottage Hill offers better educa tional
advantages than Pensacola offers to
its boys and girls.
The election July 81 will be the
measure Of your interest in your
children and your pride in your town.
Better schools for Pensacola will not
only be a good thing for the youth
of this community, but can but prove
distinct commercial asset. Let us
go to the polls on election day and
