Mormon Temple
in Hawaii Ready

seventy years Of effective work by the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints in Hawaii. On December II,
1850, only three years after the great
migration of the Mormons to Utah,
the first party of Mormon missionnr-
les landed In Hawaii, little more than
thirty years later than the first Chris
tian missionaries from Boston. In this
first Mormon party was Elder George
Q. Cannon, lately a counsellor to the
first presidency Of the church In Salt
Lake City. He remained In the islands
number of years, learned the native
language and translated the Book Of
Mormon into Hawaiian.
Joseph +. Smith. the late president
of the church, came to Hawaii In 1854
as missionary, being hut sixteen
years old at that time. He remained
in the islands four years and returned
in 1886 for stay of two years, dur
Ing which his son, Elias Wesley
Smith, now residing here as president
of the Hawaiian mission, was born.
Twenty years ago President Smith
made his last visit to Hawaii

SIBERIAN SCOUTS CALL TO US.

y
The chain Of boy scouts around the
world is one of the greatest guaran-
tees of the civilization of the future.
From far off Krasnoyarsk In ST.
IBERIA the boy scouts there have asked
the great organization in this coun-
try for guidance in their program and
for uniforms and equipment upon
which they may model.
The letter comes to the national
headquarters of the Boy Scouts Of
America at 200 Fifth avenue, New
York, through the department Of state
at Washington from American Consul
u X. Caldwell at vladivostok.
Vice Consul Edward b, Thomas at
Krasnoyarsk says:
II would like to give any aid posi-
ole to the scout movement here, for II
Is developing in the boys just thoss
qualities Of good service and good
citizenship which are so needed in
Russia at this time"
Their American brothers sent an
immediate response for "a scout Is a
brother to every other. scout-1ell the
world around" Chief Scout Execu-
tive James n. West forwarded a full
list Of literature and scout equipment.

EAGLE RANK IS HARD WORK

"Just what does boy have to do
to become an Eagle scout?"
To become an Eagle scout. boy
must first reach the rank Of f1rst-class
scout. Three months is the minimum
time required, during which period he
performs % different tests. including
tire-building, cooking, opening bank
account, first aid and bandaging, swim
ming, tracking, hiking, map drawing,
and study Of trees, animals and
stars.
Then the scout Is ready to begin
study for merit badges. These are en-
blems given for proficiency in certain
lines of study.
The test is passed before an exam
liner, who gives the boy certificate
in evidence Of the work. The scout
now goes before court of honor, COM
posed Of a group of business men, who
examine his credentials, and vote to
award him the merit badge.
When the scout has received five
merit badges in this way he Is desig-
mated a Life scout. Ten badges give
him the rank of Star scout. while Fl
are required for the Eagle degree.
Many of these tests are far from
easy. In bird study. for example, the
scout must know and identify not less
than so different birds. In life-saving
he must be able to rescue boy Of
his own weight in deep water. In camp
ing he must sleep in the open for go
nights, and be able to make fire with
out matches. There are 80 merit
badge tests.

one Of Pfemet's new, ideas and this

You will see that the skirt is made
In two parts, one side In pale blue
silk and the other in a darker shade.
The corsage is, in the light color, with
cuffs Of darker blue. Absolutely no
trimming Is introduced on the corsage.
This Is an idea which is generally fol-
lowed by the leading dressmakers Of
the Rue de 10 Paix. Nowadays one
rarely sees an deliberately trimmed
bodice. and many of the more expen-
sive models are plain. as indicated In
the sketch
1t IL very important to realize that
these fitted corsages are worn over
what may be called "a natural corset !"
that Is to say, there is no indication of
small waist, the outline is intention
ally boyish and for this reason 1t is
youthful. II you have seen the Jackets

and the slken material was gathered

were attached to the skirt.
These fitted bodices are going to be

be perfectly cut and fitted, otherwise
they are far from becoming. / have

Mink barrel-wraps are In great de-

Musquash Is more fashionable than

youthful garment.
I have seen wonderful capes which
were arranged entirely In graduated
iiounces and made of astrakhan or
moleskin. 1t is easy to understand
that such nantes need to be most
carefully cut and fitted; otherwise
they would look very heavy. One
model created for the Paris stage, was
made of broadtail with narrow bor-

worn by Robnne at an afternoon con-

wide and supple-are fastened in front

fastened with big fur buttons and

duced short shawl in ermine, which
gave curiously old world aspect to Its

This shawl was only long enough to
cover the hips, and 1t was worn quite

Turks Finances

of making Turkey default so inter-
ested powers could take over her
finances and control the country. as
was done IN 1881. This led to the
creation OF loose spheres Of influence.

French. Syria, with the Italians want
Ing the province they at present oc-
cupy. and the British. and the Russians
seeking Constantinople. In the coun.
ell of administration of the Ottoman
public debt, which continued until the
war and has been resumed In some
fashion, there was one Englishmun,
one Frenchman, one German, one Aus
TRAN and one Italian, with the presi-
dency alternately occupied by an Eng
lishman and Frenchman.
The conclusion of the investigators
Is th9t IL the investments had been
made for productive enterprise and
had created sources for meeting in
terest and the debt. It would have
been child's play to carry the debt
and pay 1t of. However, as the debt
was lowered, In spite of the above at
tempts. additional loans were made.
Not all Of the sums borrowed by the
government were wasted; for exam
pie about $5O,OOO,OOO was used to help
build the Bagdad railway. Although
the Germans would have built the line
with their own money, they actually
got Turkish money to finance what
they considered German enterprise.

IT Is pointed out that Turkey did
not default on her Indebtedness in re-

tinually increasing and doubling at

THE PRIMARY LAW

The primary law is without
doubt correct in theory but the
recent election has demonstrated
that it can be used to defeat the
purpose for which it was framed.
1t is not probable that the people
would willingly return to the old
method of nominating by conven-
ton.
One of the problems which
should be solved by the next gen.
eral assembly is to amend it, so
that the voters of each party may
nominate their own ticket.
In the contest between Karl
Schuyler and Sam Nicholson for
U. S. senator, the same clique, or
at least part of them, that voted
in the Democratic assembly as
delegates of the Democratic party,
deserted the men whom they had
helped to designate as candidates
and with their followers voted in
a body for Karl Schuyler in the
primaries. 1t might be difficult to
prove but there can be no reason
able doubt that the leaders of this
movement received a large sum
of money for deserting the Demo-
Gratis and going over to the Repub-
licans. These leaders are the
same men who raised a row in the
Democratic assembly by denounc-
ing the character and Democracy
of James M. Collins.
AS stated in a former article.
these leaders are neither. Demo-
Gratis or Republicans. They are
political pirates and when their
true position is fully recognized
by the people, their active support
of any candidate will be an injury
instead of a benefit. The loyal
Democrats of Denver should re-
fuse to give them any position of
power or trust within the party
organization, and the primary

ject. The evident purpose was to
make the question paramount
issue in the campaign so that vital
issues concerning domestic af-
fairs might be forgotten. The
voter should not be misled. The
league can only be considered as
one of the issues in electing our
U. S. senators. None of our other
officials will have a voice in de-
Gliding its ultimate fate. If the
next senate ratifies it we become
at once party to the league. If
they reject it the league still
lives but we are not a part of it..
