SUCH PRODUCTIONS DANGEROUS

Beyond the fact that intention was good, no excuse can be found
for the presentation of such a film Is The Auction of Souls" to a mix
ed attendance of the general public and especially is such the case in
communities with such mixture of races and civilizations Is are to be
found in these Islands. In saying this, Maui News is not criicising the
management of the local theater. 1t condemns the producing of such
pictures to be shown promiscuousy and it condemns the misguided zeal
that brought such a film to Hawaii. Were it possible to select the at
tendance that would view such an exhibition the excuse of for a great
cause" might avail
In Waikiki this week scenes that were intended to arouse horror
were greeted by audible applause in several instances and it may well
be asked what effect the picture had on the minds of those who APP
pauded. Pictures are more vivid, more easily understood than are
spoken words and without unfair criticism of the moving picture theaters
1t is safe to assert that the assembage gathered in such a theater con-
tains more persons OF sub-normal intellect proportonatey than are
found where the spoken drama is shown and certainly a far greater pro-
portion than in churches or in lecture halls.
Under such circumstances it is to be regretted that the film was
produced on Maui or in any of the other Islands. Such revenue as may
have resulted for the relief fund was not sufficient to compensate for
by the Maui Committee for Near East Relief and it is doubtful if that
committee would have sought to have it shown, certain that it would not
have done so had it been familiar with the production so that it could
have considered probable preponderance of i'll effects. No really good
served in the future.

Commenting editorialy on the County Library Bill introduced in
the senate, the Sar-Buuetn says that if ways and means for financing
can be found it is wholly and sincerely for the plan. The for all Ea-
wii paper has not yet put any if into its favoring of support for the
Library of Hawaii which serves as a county library for Honolulu. If
funds can be found for the Library of Hawaii they should be proper
tonatey available for Kauai and for Maui.

TO THE GLASS OF
TWENTY ONE

To the class Of Twen.y-One,
We bid hearty God speed
The lesson Is learned you may have
your ,one.
All Guthrie is loving YOU,
We've notion your class doth hold
A Lincoln, or maybe Ford
\ leader Of truth, a harvester Of
gold
An armor that needs no sword
For hose who, are leaders in the
marts of men.
There is always glad acclaim.
But fer he Who' plods on the lower
round;
Not much of glory remains
We hold that we are not beaten,
AS long as :here is hope within
To hide our pain in cheery smile
Is wonderful victory to win.
There isn't much, fer some OF us.
Except castles We build on thu sly.
If your fondest hopes. are lost in the
fog,
Why darken the day with a sigh
A smile for a smile. We count most
fair.
But suppose yon smile as you pass
the day
And your neighbor is grouchy and
does not care.
Just smile and smile, It's the only
way
The sweetes. flowers are sometimes
chosen,
To brighten a dreary spot
The bravest hearts are pressing on
ward.
To cheer another's lot
And so Dear Members of Twenty One.
We are loving and watching YOU.
And shoull you soar to heights Of
fame.
tAll Guthrie will claim her due.
But. If as yon climb the ladder Of
fame.
The laurels to others are given.
All, then, we woat ask your bounty
20 share,
You may keep your hope in Heaven
But whether you climb to the top
tf most round.
And fling wide the Royal Blue,
Or whether you stay near the ground
All Guthrie is loving you
