IGAIN THE

Any move which will tend to prevent the sending of children into
such surroundings and conditions, among such companions IS a boy
meets in the Industrial School in Honolulu is to be commended. The
women Of Maui are making a start in the right direction in seeking
a place on this Island and paid officials, man and woman, as probation
officers. From such a start the right road may be reached. But those
who advocate the movement probably have not a full realization of what
should be the capacity of such officials, as Maui News remarked last
week.
Delinquency results from physical or mental degeneracy or both in
the vast majority of cases but in more than a quarter of the cases it is
result of mental shock. 1t is in such cases that expert knowledge and
a trained mind is needed in the proatiOn officer. The shock results in
subnormaity of the child mentally or in a twist that brings unsocial
habits. The officer must be the doctor. He must find the cause, re
move it, and the effects then can be overcome. Such work is not for
one who wants to "hold a job To be fond of children or a good dis
ciplnarian is not sufficient. The man or the woman must go into the
work as much for the good of humanity as to earn a livelihood. He or
she must be as a scientists who is wrapt up in his studies. Each child
Isl his subject, his problem to be solved.
Admitted that it is not to be expected that a community of the size
of Maui can secure such officials at once. 1t is a goal to be worked
for from the start that is proposed.
The question of expense of such an institution has been brought
up. The answer comes in the form of another question, what is the
value OF a life made useful to the community as CO Ipared to the life
of an habitual delinquent, a criminal"

OF DETAIL

When speaking to the women voters at the meeting arranged by
the Maui Womans Club in Kahuui on Monday every candidate eX-
pressed himself in favor of free transportation of school children locat-
ed at a distance romOte from the schools they must attend but several
raised the point of liability for injury of any child in the course of
such transportation of the county n of the territory as the case might
be. Such objection would seem to be an aside, a matter that could
easily be cared for.
On the mainland, in many sections, such transportation is furnish
ed. Undoubtedly the same question had to be solved there. In many
places transportation has now been furnished for sevesal years. If the
difficulty was removed there it could be removed here.
It may be called to the attention of those who raised the point Of
liability that there is such a form of insurance as the casualty policy
and that such policies may be written in a blanket form.
1t may also be suggested that parents and guardians might reGn-
qush for themselves and for the child they represent claims against
the county or the territory which might arise by reason of any acct
dent in the course of transportation, in consideration for the furnish
ing of free transportation and of the sum of 81.
The women ask a pledge to the support of an appropriation for the
furnishing of such transportation and will not be satisfied without it.
They regard the objection raised as a matter of detail which can be
arranged once the appropriation is secured. What they ask is Get
the appropriation for free transportation for children who live remote
from the school they must attend"

PREVENTTON BETTER THAN CURE

Last Saturdays series of automobile mishaps that ended in a
fatality have aroused a considerable feeling in Waikiki and some
criticism is heard of the officials who permitted the driver to retain his
license after previous exhibitions of lack of care in driving, as they
assert had been given.
Whether the driver had or had not been drinking before his Satur-
day drive or whether he had or had not been drinking before the other
episodes that are reported Maui News does not know. But one thing
is certain, warning has been given.
Booze and gasoline do not mix. The man who has been drinking
has no business at the wheel OF a car, has less business. there than the
engineer of a locomotive after drinking has a place in the cab. The
locomotive travels on tracks over a railroad right of way. The auto
driver travels over a public right of way.
Wherever there is evidence that a driver who has been in an auto
mobile wreck or mishap had been drinking before such mishaP, his
license should be revoked until such time as the lesson has been learn
ed. If it be true, as IS common talk, that Nicholas had been drinking
prior to mishaPs on a previous occasion how much kinder it would
have been to him, how much better for him and for the public, had his
license then been suspended or revoked.
In the recent accident there is a lesson for public officials to learn
and to remember.

SAVING HI BONUS

Within the next few weeks large sums will be disbursed by the
plantation companies in the final bonus distribution of the year. 1t
will put in the hands of saaned men and wage earners larger sums,
in many instances, than they have ever received at one time before.
With it comes the opportunity for saving and for thrift.
In the past small investments in Island industries have resulted in
later completeness. From the past may be judged the future and care
full investors will keep that in mind.
Maui News does not advise for or against any particular form of
investment but there is being capitalized a new company to conduct an
and most to Maui. Representatives of Hawaiian Banana Plantation are
now on Maui and. investigation by prospective investors of the corpora
tons proposals is fully warranted in the circumstances.
1t is reported that Portuguese women have not registered i'll num-
beers proporionate to those of other natvihes. There's a field for. the
women of Maui to work.
American citizens of Chinese birth may now secure passports to
travel as freely as may citizens of other nativity. Through the efforts
of the American Legion the restrictions have been removed and Maui
post took the initiative in the matter.
News from the mainland points more strongly each day to the
election of Harding as president and increased Republican majorihes
in both houses of congress.
Know thyself is good advice. So also is "Know the community
IN which you live" The best way to get acquainted with it and its re-
sources is to attend the Fair and see it all.
If you're not registered, do it today. Don't wait.
Election day can never come at an earlier date in the month than
this year.
Anent a coming ordinance for Waiuku, she seems to be growing up
and beginning to think about her personal appearance.
Next comes the Fair, only six days off.

INVESTMENTS md SPECULATION

In another part of Maui News appears an advertisement for an Oil
Company. The advertisers do not claim that they are offering invest
ment securities to the public but admit it to be a speculation.
James Douglas, who made United Verde Extension and other cop
per properties in Arizona a success, son of DR.. Douglas who was head
of Phelps, Dodge and Company said no one should put money into an
undeveloped copper proposition unless he was prepared to lose it, should
put in no more than he could afford to lose, could hope but could not
reasonably expect to win. So it is with oil propositions. If oil is
developed those who put their money in make great profits. If oil is
not developed they have an interest in a hole in the ground. They are
taking a chance.
In publishing the advertisement Maui News makes n o recommended
tons whatever but is satisfied that the company has complied with the
laws which permit of the offering of such shares.

FIGURING DOWN FINE
and to remember.

In the so-caled Hawaiian Rehabilitation Bill Hawaiian is defined
as a person who has one thirty second of Hawaiian blood in his or hf
veins. Perhaps John Wise may have some explanation of why the
line hs been drawn so fine.
Let us see how many years it would naturally take to produce a
child with one thirty second Hawaiian blood, the parent of such blood
in each instance marrying away from his or her own Hawaiian strain.
The child of a mixed marriage is half caste, the second generation is
quarter blood, the third an eighth, fourth a sixteenth and the fifth a
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1920-10-15

thirty second. Assuming 20 years to the generation, certainly short
enough, it would take a hundred years to produce a child of one thirty
second Hawaiian blood, assuming that in no instance one of the ancest-
ors had married another Individual of Hawaiian extraction.
And yet another objection that is raised to the bill is that it will
put the Hawaiian on a par with the American Indian, a ward of the
nation" AS a ward of the nation the American Indian has no vote,
no voice in government. Maui News does not believe the Hawamans
desire to be classed as is Poor Lo" on the mainland. 1t believes
Kuhio got his large vote at the primary in spite of and not because of
the Rehabilitation Bill.
The Republican platform asks for home rule for Hawaii, it would
seem the voters should decide the question through their electorate.

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Mulsihed cocoanut
oil shampoo (Which is pure and en-
tirely g~reaseless). is much better than
anything else o can use for sham
pooling, as this can't possibly injure
the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance Of
rich. creamy lather. and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle Of dust, dirt. dandrufr and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut of
shampoo at most any drug store. It
is very cheap. and a few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the family
for months.
