pineapples, coffe, rice and various products of the tropics, the cosmo politan population are great buyers of American goods to the value of about s50,0O0,OOO annually. In addi. tioo to a growing demand for lumber and other northwest products, Ha- waii purchases large quantities of furniture, foodstuffs, silks, cotton and other cloth and wearing ap- parel, and fancy groceries of all kinds.
 In one year the islands have i'm. ported 5000 OOO worfh of automo- piles and parts. s10,000,o00 worth of steel goods, $3,000, 900 worth of meat and dairy products, etc, down the list of everything to eat or wear or make life more comfortable, The merchants and manufacturers of all the Puget sound and Columbia river cities are the ones who should take the keenest interest in this new service, for once 1t Is demonstrated that a freight and passenger serv. ice between the north coast and the island can be made permanent a trade will be built up that could shortly occupy first place in the sta. tistics of the port.
 It Is clearly a rare trade opportun. ity offered to the northwest ship per, jobber or manufacturer, for the diversion to this section of but a portion of the Hawaiian trade will mean much to the development of the section.

Girl Editor of Telephone Magazine
 Secures Local Color by Undergoing
 One Year Operating a Switchboard

 ST. LOUIS. Mo, Ang. 17.-Three months actual experience as a tele- phone operator following her gradu- ation from the journalistic depart ment of the Missouri State uniyer- sity, in order to obtain needful in formation for her new job as asso- ciate editor of the Southwestern Telephone News, is the unique rec ord made by Miss Mary Sue Patton, of St. Louis. She has held her present position for more than q year and attributes her success in 1t to the knowledge she gained as a hello girl' at the switchboard of the Olive Street Exchange, St. Louis. In short, she knows just what sort of material the girls want to sec in the monthly magazine and just how to obtain from them what they do know.
 The position Miss Patton holds was made fer her in the nature of an experiment by the company officials, following their attempt Co get one of their girls who could write. They were afraid tthe aver. age college girl would not get the right slant on the position, hence the giving of such an experience to Miss Patton.
 Miss Patton was graduated from college with a bachelor of arts de- gree in 1920, and went to Canada to do newspaper work Later she returned and took the journalistic degree. She was then told of the need in St. Louis for such posi-

However, that matter was fixed up and l started in on the most strenu- ous work I have ever attempted. Covering the wildcst story in the world could not compare with it. and l generally ended the day in a gale of tears. Only my determination kept me there. Finally I arrived at the place where I was a real opera. tor and l certainly had more respect by that time for the girls who had answered my hello" over the tele- phone. The girls came to know me just as one of themselves and I liked them. It all stands me in good stead now. In return I have writ ten for their magazine fairy stories of a sort that puts into fanciful shape some of the things they do each day. I have endeavored to give them imagination in their daily tasks and ambition.
 There is no way that helps to hold a position higher as much as by working with those of the ranks first. It gives you understanding that is valuable. My friends tell me the system is better since quit | operating and became an editor-I maybe so."

ALASKA MAUCURATES
 HAWAII TRADE

SEATTLE, Aug IT. Establish. ment by the Alaska Steamship Com pany of a direct service in both directions between Seattle and As toria and the Hawaiian Islands is re- garded by well Sersed shipping men as oue of the most important bits of news coming from the water front in many months. For years the Hawaiian trade has been partially overlooked by Seattle merchants. Yet in tonnage and in value that trade has for some time past been from two to three times as great as the Alaska trade. The Hawaiians are great buyers of American goods and their market place has almost ex. clusively been located at San Fran. cisco. True, the great influence of the sugar trade has aimed to dis. courage the operation of steamships to and from any northern ports
 For years Puget sound has peti. toned for a direct service without avail At the same time the isl ands have offered goodly field for the sale of northwest products such as lumber, both rough and dressed, shingles, fruit, flour condensed milk, dairy produces and miscellaneous equipment and supplies. To trans, port these articles to the islands the northern shipper has had to depend upon any tramp steamship or sail. ing vessel that might he loading for that destination or else ship by way of San Francisco which, of course. was disastrous to the permanency of the trade in the north. owing to the fact that the San Francisco ships have been working largely in the in terests of the California shipper
 The experiment by the Alaska Steamship Company, therefore, is of prime importance, and should the two trial trips July 30 and August 30 prove successful, it is probable that a permanent service can be maintained, and with encourage ment, that the traffic eventually will be of such volume as to call for a regular freight and passenger ser vice.
 The steamship Cordova sailed from Seattle on July 30 with a fairly good cargo of lumber and misceI- laneous products and was scheduled to stop at Astoria and complete her loading. The Cordova has passen- ger accommodations for 54 first class and g steerage. and thus has the distinction of being the first yes sel to carry passengers from Seat, | tie to the islands. In the Alaska l Steamship Company's fleet is the famous vessel Alameda" which with her sister ship the "Mariposa, ' made history in the South Sea trade out of San Francisco, both these vessels for years being the most popular on the Hawaiian run.
 The Hawaiian trade is steadily growing and entirely aside from its tremendous shipments of sugar l

BURIED IN EXTINCT CHATTER

Quoted by the Bernice Pauahi Bish-

evidences of the place having been
used for burial places, and in two
OF the cones terraced platforms Of
stone were found on which were
Anus, or stone cairns, containing hui
man skeletons buried according to
the old Hawaiian custom, with
knees fexed up against the breast.
No insignia or other evidence to
show the rank Of the persons buried
IN these places was found.
The discoveries are in line with
known facts concerning ancient Ha-
