GOLDEN WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY.

Last Tuesday, January llth, there
was celebrated at the Kimble home in
Custer the Golden wedding anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs George kimble. a
purse of gold was presented as well as
box of cut flowers. The affair was
under the auspices OF the Congregational
Church and Ladies Aid, Mrs. kimble
being one of the pioneer members Of
the church. AT 800 p m. the ladies Of
the Aid and Church held reception at
the Kimbe home and served refresh
ments to the guests who called to offer
happy fluctuations to the couple who
had thus far travelled the journey oflife
so long and SO successfully.
Mr.. and Mrs. kimble were married in
Wisconsin, coming to Custer 80 years
ago and have made their home here
since. They belong to the great com.
pany of people whom for want of IA
better name We call pioneers" A
history of the past 33 years of their life
would be so connected with the common
every day life of Custer that it would
read like recital OF the growth and
doings of our town. While Mrs
Kimble's health has for some time pre-
vented her from joining the activities
of the community, the figure of Mr.
Kimble is a familiar one for he bears
his wears lightly and does as much work
as many vouug men. They own nice
home in Custer and best OF all the sin
cere respect Of the entire community
around them. Three children have
been born to them, two of whom passed
on in early age Their daughter, sabra,
lives with them in Custer.
The day was one of cheer, and the
sunshine and happiness of these people
was prophetic OF aud the wish all
present that many happy days might be
extended to them as they travel on
down the road of time.

Waialua Plantation Is
Hit by Labor Shortage

The directors of Waialua Agricul-
tural company made an investigation
of the physical condition of the plan
tation last Friday says the Advertis-
er. They found ample evidence the
situation is serious. The manage
ment has been unable to keep the
weeds down or even to irrigate to the
extent desirable with the abundance
of water available.
I'VE saw 1900 acres of cane that
ought to be well along for the 1928
crop dried and whitening" Frank c..
Anterior, one of the directorss, stat
ed after his return from the planta-
ton. "The 1921 crop will not be har-
vested until December. 1t is going
to be a full 1000 tons less than the
January estimate. Furthermore, I'M
less we can get more labor right
away the crop will be from 5000 to
5000 tons short the next two years"
He stated that the lack of labor has
delayed the 1921 harvest so long that
work will have to be started on cut
ting the 1922 crop just as soon as the
mill can be put in repair after the
January shutdown.

Sixteen Candidates
Enter in Contest to
Gain Trip to Coast

Sixteen candidates are entered in
the Maui Popularity Contest as a re-
suit of which the girl voted to be the
most popular of Maui's maids and
young matrons will make a trip to
San Francisco and return, have her
| hotel and living expenses paid for ten
days in the Bay City and take with
out cost to herself a number of sight
seeing trips. Such is the reward for
which the contestants and their
friends are working and striving.
Though two or three of the candi-
dates whose anne were published
Tuesday decided not to make the
ace yet the number of entrants
nevertheless increased to Is. Now
there are no more free ballots allow
ed to new starters though there is
nothing to prevent any n from vot-
ing for any girl for whom he may de-
sire to ballot. The entrants are:
Mrs. Edith Buchanan, Mrs. Sara
Buck, Miss Rita Rosecrans, Miss Lei
lani Weight, Miss Alma Ross, Mrs.
Hairy Holt, Mrs. Harry Harley, Miss
Katherine Williams, Miss Ruth Park
er, Miss Rebecca Goodness, Mrs. An
ME Lloyd, Mrs. Helen P. Mookini,
Miss Edith Field, Miss Eva Comes
Paschoal, Miss Tamana Yanagi and
Miss Carmen Benitez.
AS several of the candidates have
just made their starts and are only
just getting under way, while others
have been in since the first announce
ment, almost, Manager Fernandez
considers it unfair to give total votes
at this time and will only say that
Mrs Buchanan and Mrs. Buck are off
in the lead with the others in pursuit.
Manager Fernandez impresses on
the candidates that it is unwise to
depend upon the work of their friends
for no matter how popular a girl may
be in her w circle, unless she
shows the desire and determination
to win she will not awaken their in
terest in her race as will the girl who
gets out and helps herself.
The contest will be at its height
during the Fair and will reach it's
climax the last night, closing at II p.
m, Saturday, October Is.

The Bird of Paradise

A party-a real honest to goodness
one-was what we enjoyed on Tues
day afternoon of this week.
We girls all think SO much of
Lieutenant Meinecke and feel so bad
ly to think she will soon be leaving
Maui hat we expressed our appreci-
alton in the form of a little candy
pull" Our secretary sent a dainty
little note of invitation and on Tues
day afternoon all congregated at the
home of Captain Rosecrans for the
fun. While the candy boiled merrily
we danced and enjoyed songs about
the piano. Then all moved out to
the back yard for the pull. Such
fun! and oh, the girls whose fingers
got burned!
The afternoon ended with a good
frolic in the old game of "three-deep'
and every one voted it a fine success.

COAL OPERATORS WANT POTO.
MAC RIVER ROAD IN GARRETT
Highway Would Extend Along River
From Bloomington to Thomas

Members of the Upper Potomac
Coal Association, composed of opera
tors along the Western Maryland Rail-
way in Garrett county, will confer
with. the Garrett County Commission
ers this morning and afternoon re-
garding the building of a proposed
road along the Potomac river from
Bloomington, this county, to Thomas,
West Va. The road, it is declared,
would be a great developer. 1t is al
together probable that West Virginia
would participate in the project as it
would be necessary to bridge the river
at several points and enter the state
to avoid the bluffs on the Maryland
side.
The directors Of the Upper Potomac
Coal Association met in Cumberland
yesterday afternoon and last night
held conference with representatives.
OF the association in regard to the pro-
posed meeting with the County COM
missioners today.
The proposed road on the east side
Of the mountain would permit the
operators safe and ready access by
wagon to their different mines. The
following have been named as the
committee who are in conference with
the commissioners, representing dis
tricts in Garrett county, which the
proposed road would penetrate:
Ryan's Glade, Robert P. Maloney,
Wilson D. Althouse; Deer Park, P. J.
Bremen, James A. Brown: Kitzmil-
Ter, William H. GIBSON, Truman NJ.
Dodson, Thomas Griffith, r. A. Smith;
SWanton, Howard p Prydon IT M.
Dodson; Bloomington, Carroll Patti
son, H. P. Brydon.
In addition to the above committee
of the coal men, large delegations Of
residents from each of the Affected dis
tricts are also present at the confer
ence, and many enthusiastic speeches
favoring the project have been made
by the farmers and others.

WITH HOLE THROUGH FORE
HEAD INTO BRAI-l, BOY LIVES
Remarkable Case Being Treated In
Oakland by Physician

One of the most remarkable cases
in surgery that has come to the at
tention for treatment by local physi-
clans is that of Delmas Kitzmiiler.
aged II years, son of the late Mrs.
Grace Kitzmiller, who resided with
his grandfather a few miles east of
Mountain Lake Park, who while en-
gagged in firing a shotgun was serious
ly and perhaps fatally injured on last
Saturday afternoon.
Information obtainable from those
who know is to the effect that the boy
had gone to the woods to shot at a
mark, taking with him a muzzle-load-
ing shotgun. Upon firing it the barrel
exploded and portion of the breach,
piece of steel about three inches in
length with small piece of the gun
stock fastened to it with a screw,
drove back and entered the boys fore
head just above and slightly to the
right of his right eye. He was brought
to Oakland as quickly as possible and
taken to the limbaugh Sanatorium
where after more than a half hours
work on the part of the physicians,
Drs. McComas and Hinebaugh, the
steel and wood were extracted, and
this was accomplished only after por-
lions of the skull had been cut away,
so tightly was the material imbedded.
Should the boy recover, and it is the
opinion that he will, he will lose the
sight of his right eye, the optic nerve
having been severed by the steel when
it entered his head

he had shot his father had be-n wrest-
ed from him by his father. He died
