 Honolulu, October 1.-The TO- mantle lure of the south seas has become so potent throughout the world that the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce is faced with an increas- ingly onerous and embarrassing prob lem, it's officials announced here re- gently
 For inhabitants of the crass. cold commercial world of the temperate zone desre-and make their desires known in a pile of mail that is in credsing constantly with each steam er---to leave their unromantic atmos- phere and come to Hawaii, the land of music and flowers, where tradi< tion has the golden moon always full and where a persons life, &C., cording to popular belief, consists of lolling On the shaded beach at Wal kiki, famed by the cooling trade winds and reaching up occasionally to pluck enough fruit from the over loaded boughs to afford sustenance.
 The writers of the last steamef's mail ranged from stenographers, educators, chiropodists, ex-Jockeys to schooiboys and countless others All emphaSized the great sacrifice they would make in coming to the islands.

convict department employed a baker to visit the various prisons and teach some of the men how to bake bread and rolls The success of this eN- pertinent has been remarkable In years gone by those unfortunate enough to be placed in prison were given corn bread at each meal there being rare exceptions to this general rule. Now the men have bread which Is as good as can be purchased al any bakery. Another rule put into ef- feet since the committee visited the prisons in 1919 gives every person as much food as he desires. There is no lmit to the amount he may con- sume. proeided food is not wasted,
 To Get Balanced Ration
 Dr. Q. smith. physician inspector Of convicts, has prepared bal anced ration which will be put into effect as soon as necessary arrange ments can be made. This ration will take away the old monotony There will not be the same food for every meal. Some of the prisons have all ready established rations under this plan, though Dr. smith expects to make IL more effective. Notably in the list may be placed Speigner, where Hamp Draper, the warden is now using a weekly ra ton which di- versailles the food.
 One of the eyesores of the pris- ons when the committed visited them in 1919 was the swinging hunks, where the prisoners were forced to sleep. These hunks were nothing but hard boards on which were placed mattresses. There was no such thing as bed springs. These burr<s have been replaced by mod ern cots, which were purchased by the state from the government for fraction of the amount which they cost the government during the war. Mattresses have been provided for all beds. They are being manu- factured at the state cotton mill at Speigner for less than one half of the amount they will cost in the market. Clean clothing also Is provided. Ev- cry suit of clothes is fitted to the man and every man Is required to keep neat appearance. All the clothing is manufactured at Speigs ner. A few years ago even belts were not provided and the men were forced to use nails or anything they could get. Belts are now furnished as part of the equipment.
 New order Prevails
 There Is new order of things in all prisons An order prohibits gam bling, which Is being replaced by harmless games and amusements which are being arranged by the wei fare department under W. H. Harri- son, chaplaiq Pool tables were found in some prisons and in many were vlctrolas and pianos. Every mans health Is being looked after by | Dr. Smith, the physician-inspector, I and Dr. J. F. Pearce. the dentist, who | are giving their entire time to the work of the department"
 Mr. Green said the committee | would make a formal report to the | legislature and announced that a i would be held at o'clock l Tuesday morning for the purpose of | the report.

 New Haven. Conn. October 1.-- There is as great a difference in the methods of football coaches as there Is in the methods of the leading ex pcnents of other so-called arts and professions. Each works from diff ferent angle and handles his material in a different way. One man accom- plishes his ends by making his play CTS more afraid of him than of any thing that can happen to them on the field. Another drives his men into a frenzy of abandon. while still an other deals with his players through process of cold logic until they see the necessity of and the reasons for every move.
 Some coaches are able to instiil much of their own spirit into their charges. while others secure their re- suits by a mathematical precision of constant daily drill. Some coaches are respected and others are loved. In the latter class is Tad Jones. this year In charge of the Yale team, and it will be interesting to watch the results which his methods obtain. So far his efforts have been most en- couraging to the partisans of the Blue.
 J0nes Was . Star
 As a player. Jones was a brilliant, courageous performer. with a good head and peculiar lodging run which fooled tacklers. His team in 1916 had a better defense than attack. but they managed to win first from Princeton and then from Harvard In both games the defense was the star

IMPROVEMENTS AT PRISONS AMAZING,
 GREEN DECLARES
Legislative Committee Com pleteS Inspection of State Camps and Will Make
 Report Tuesday
By FRED II. GORMLEY Mont gOmery Bureau. The Age Herald, Z9I-o EirSf FNatiounI RanL KuiIuin


 Montgomery, October 1.-(Spe- alb After visiting every state prison in Alabama except the lumber camp at River Falls, ]. W. Green representa- tive rom Dallas county. and chair man of the recess ,uvestieat!ng com mittee created ni .910 to inspect all convict camps, Saturday tight de- clared that the improvements which have been brought about since the committee made its last inspection were not short of marvellous.
 The committee arrived in Mont gomery after 6 o'clock Saturday night, having during the day visited the cotton mill and prison at Spelg- ner, ske old penitentiary at wetump- ka. the tuberculosis hospital at We tumpka, Prison Farm No. {, in Mont gomery county, and the new state prison at Camp Kilby This com pleted the tour of the state with the exception of the south Alabama camp. where state convicts are used in the manufacture of lumber at River Falls. This camp will be inspected later.
 Committeeman Amazed
 Persons who saw conditions in 1919 when the Investigating commit tee made its investigations with the view of submitting report at the adjourned session of that year were all but amazed at the improvements found in all prisons visited" said Representative Green. At each prison we found that sanitation had been one of the watchwords thet con- ditions are as good behind the bars now as can be found in the homes and hotels; that the unfortunates are re- ceiving better attention and that many things have been eliminated which caused friction in the past.
 At every prison there is now a modern bakery, in which bread is baked by inmates for inmates. The

language of it's own, out all knew Chinook.
 Some of the most common Chinook expressions and their means arc as follows: Klahowya, good morning kahtah mika, what ails you; kumtux mika Boston wawa, do you under stand English; kah mika klap okoke opalo, where did you catch that trout. kahta mika, how are you; chahco yahkwa. come here friend; abba, very well Boston man, Ameri- can; chil chil, stars; chuck, water; kinooti. tobacco; cultus, worthless; moolok, elk: th-i-kum. friend, tin tin, muslcal instrument; si-wash, Indian; skookum. strong, and suk wal-al, gun.
 Some of these words have become fairly current in this section. In ordinary speech a man often refers to a dear friend as his tilicum"; a person who is of little account is often called 'cultus," and "skookum' is often applied to a man of great strength or physical vigor.

K|LAUEA VOLCANO
 MAY PERFORM FOR
 PRESS DELEGATES
One of Worlds Greatest SpectacIes of Nature May Be UnfoIded Before Eyes
 of NeWSpapermen
By Associated Preha

Hilo, Island of Hawaii, T. H., Oc- tober lone of the worlds greatest spectacles of nature-demonstra of volcanic activity by Kilauea vol cano on this island-will very pos sibly be unfolded before the eyes of delegates to the forthcoming Worlds Press congress sessions in Honolulu in October, according to L. NJ. devis-Norton, secretary of the Hawaiian Volcano Research associa- tion and an authority on the Hawaiian volcanoes.
 The lava column within the vast fire-pit of Kilauea has been rising steadily, according to reports from the Hawaiian Volcano observatory on the rim of the great crater di- rectly overlooking the volcano. The molten lava lakes within the great fire pit are increasing their area so rapidly that the shoals and lava rock islands which were conspicuous ob- jects upon the lakes surface are dis appearing one by one as the molten floods overwhelm them.
 Arrive October IF
 The itinerary for the press con gress delegates calls for their arrival here on the evening of October 12 and it has been arranged that the next two days will be spent by the delegates at the volcano among the wonders of Americas latest national park. All indications point to cul- mination of Kilauea's activities about that time, the observatory re- ports and if these conditions ma terialize the delegates will witness a scene of marvellous, and awe-inspir- ing brilliance. Mir deVis-Uorton said. r Many strange things are transpir- ing in connection with the rapid up- ward swell of molten interiorNof the earth within the vent of Kilauea. MT. deVis- Norton said. A gigantic mass of rock Is being forced stead fly up from the depths and Is already rearing it's crest high above the white hot torrents that lap its base The continuous movement and the yibra ton of this great mass Is caus- ing heavy avalanches to rush down it's sides. The result is that 1t has scaled off until the rock mass has taken form of an extremely sharp pinnacle towering high above tho lakes.
 Lava Springs Spout
 Another phenomenon in evidence IS causing considerable comment. The great subsistence that occurred after .he explosive eruption or last Marcn at Kilauea caused heavy avalanches to fall from the walls of the grea fire pit. These, crashing down the depths, formed talus slopes which became covered with debris from above. During the past few days n series of, remarkable spouting lava springs have broken out at intervals along the top of these debris slopes, showing that an irresistible torrent of lava is forcing it's way up within them. MT. deVis-Norton said. The various points of emergence are high above the lava lakes and every few moments. glittering and spectacular ca scales of molten fire and flame roar down over the slopes to the lakes below. It Is "as though tn. whirlpool rapids at Niagara Falls had been turned into flame" ana the snectacle is especially striking at nirht. MT. devis-Norton said.
