Ethelda Bleibtry worlds champion

been arranged for by the swimming
committee and there will be accom-
modations for 900 spectators. About
half of the seats are reserved which
go on public sale at Baldwin Bank on
Monday morning. The applications
from members of the Fair and Racing
Association have been large but there

ton is desirable. The management
expects standing room only sign
will go up on the night of the swim.
All preliminaries must be completed
by Saturday afternoon and the last
of the entries must be in the hands
of the committee before Sunday morn
ing when the committee will meet in
the Bank of Maui to finally complete
the program. The eliminations will
be wherever the several local teams
are training, as Lahaina at Lahaina.
Interest in the coming meet has de-
veloped far beyond the most sanguine
hopes of the committee. Chairman
Hughes says that when the subject
was first broached promises were not
large Gut that in some of the districts
five and six times as many probable
contestors as were forecast have been
training. Thus there is assured a
large card and thrilling finishes are
on the tapis in most of the events
If Ethelda Bleibtry somes another ex-
hibition or other exhibitions will be
put on. In addition to the exhibitions
by Duke, Harris, Prieste and TAFT

25, so and 100 yard sprints, free
style, 220 yards, so yards back stroke,
so yards obstacle race, so yards
clothes race, 25 yards women and
girls sprint, 25 yards boys sprint, 6
men relay race, 6 Boy Scouts relay,
spring board diving, high diving, ira
peze diving, plunge for distance.

Price For Pines is
Conceived to Give
Grower Fair Profit

Maui pineapple growers received
reassuring news this week in the an
nouncement of the price which the
canneries will pay for pines. "Firsts"
will be bought at $26.60. This price
compares with the abnormal figure
of S40.06 last year and with $26.20
the previous year which was the high
est price everpaid up to that time.
For weeks past there have been
guesses ranging all the way from
$50 to $50 with few venturing to
hope for anything above the latter
figure. Not a little anxiety was ex-
pressed that the price might fall be-
low $25 and many conservative ones
making their guesses around s22 to
1926. So the announcement went to
relieve the tension.
Representatives of the packing
houses and the more representative
pine growers and pine land owners
say the new price is generally salts
factory and should yield fair profit
to those who have not paid too high
for their labor or who have not jump
ed into the acquisition of pine land
leases at too high figures. There are
some such spectators who believed
wild reports late last year that this
years price would be above that OF
last season, perhaps as high as $50.
Such spectators have been "stung."
Had figures fallen below S25 there
was fear that numbers of leases and
contracts would be thrown overheard
rather than to face further loss. As
1t is, it is thought there will be very
few such instances and conservative
ones consider the reduction as an
excellent thing for the future of the
industry on Maui.

OCCUPATION FOR BLIND.

Since an adding-machine opera
tor seldom looks at the keys after
he has become familiar with them,
it is evident that blindness need be
no insuperable bar to the use Of
such an instrument, says Popular
Mechanics Magazine. To remove
what obstacles there are, a blind in
ventor in California has devised an
attachment with which he is able to
operate an adding machine, and
read his totals without trouble. An
auxiliary keyboard is mounted on
two parallel rods above the regular
keys, and the cover glass is removed
from the totaling dial.

DO NOT UNDERSTAND HERolSM
Why Certain Group Of Authors Hold
Odd Views Concerning Conduct
Of People in War;

Since the end Of the war a certain
group Of authors have been yehe-
mently asserting that ali the actions
Of men and women during the strug-
gle must be attributed to hysteria,
remarks the London Express.
"Men were not heroic, they were
merely high strung"
"Women did not weep for grief,
but because Of excitement"
So they 20 on, these sages, strip
ping memory Of its solace, robbing
mankind Of its trust in mankind.
What is the reason7
What is behind the earnest desire
to discredit their fellow beings?
1t is because these authors did not
grow with the war. The spectacle
of men dying for an ideal throws
out their whole scheme of thought.
In their books humanity is de-
picted as petty, vulgar, unclean and
selfish. They cannot go on writing
until they convince themselves that
the greatness we all saw in human
nature is lie.
And they call what they write the
real truth.

Cured.

Once upon a time there was in
charge of certain Episcopal parish
down on Long Island youngish min
lister who made a decided hit with a
middle-aged spinster of large means.
Her family, with whom the preacher
was less popular, used to torment her
good-naturedly about the "angel man."
as they called the divine. One day
the spinster brought the minister home
for Sunday dinner without previously
declaring her intention to do so. Her
brothers and sister, who had not gone
to service, were in the big living room
when she breezed in, having left the
preacher in the hall to remove his
overcoat. swell, how was the angel
man today?" they chorused. did he
preach one of his soul-inspiring SER

Judge for yourselves as to his looks |;
as for his sermon, perhaps you'd all
have been better of for hearing It."
