Free Trip to Coast
in Store for Some
Charming Maui Girl

Some Maui girl is to take a trip
to the coast with all of her expenses
paid. Who will be the fortunate one
remains to be determined and will
not be known until the close of the
Fair but it is a safe assertion that
she will be the girl who is the most
energetic worker and has the most
faithful friends, for she will have
been voted the most popular girl on
Maui. Announcement of the popular
ity contest is made in this issue and
with the announcement will be found
coupons which will serve to enter any
Maui girl in the race and give her a
start of so votes. Those votes will
cost nothing; later all votes must be
bought. No one person can send in
more than one coupon for the same
girl but there is nothing to prevent
several different persons nominating
one girl by use of the coupons.
Contestants for the free trip to San
Francisco may be either married or
single, large or small, blonde or
brunette, but they must be all res
idents of Maui. They may be Maui
born or Maui raised or may be mala-
hinis, which will let any charming
school teacher in. The other requisite
for the trip is that she must secure
more votes than any other contest
ants.
The contest is to open tomorrow
and will last for Is days, closing at
II o'clock on Saturday night, October
Is, the last night of the Fair. Full
details and rules and regulations gov
erning the contest can be secured
from E. X. Fernandez who is stop
ping at the Grand Hotel and purposes
opening an office there.

New Parasites Come
to Fight Cane Pests

Arrivals from Australia aboard the
last Makura unnamed in the passeu-
ger list included two new varieties
of parasites to help rid Hawaiian
cane fields of their pests. They came
in a number of glass jars in the cool
room" of the steamer in the personal
care of the chief steward says The
Advertiser.
Both lots of immigrants will be
studies carefully before being releas-
ed, but if they have the same tastes,
and do as good work here as they
appeared to be doing in Australia
when discovered by Field Entomolo-
gist c. f. Pemberton, this importa-
ton will be a very valuable one.
Leaf-hopper eggs in the partially
developed stage appeared to be the
sole dict of a red spider in Queens

Members of Crew of
Fated ZR2 Had Some
Premonition OF Fate

HULL. Eng, Sept. 6-(Associated
Press Mail.)-Those who believe in
dreams will find subject for reflec-
ton in several remarkable visions
fo~recasting the destruction of the air
ship, ZR-2 which came to two Amer
lean officers attached to the Howden
air force and to Chief Rigger Shields
wife who is in America.
Three times in the six weeks pre-
ceding the ZR-2's fatal trial trip,
Lieutenant William r. Taylor of the
medical corps dreamed that the air
ship was wrecked, and n of the
dreams wildly pictured almost the
exact circumstances attending the
actual disaster. Taylor, by the way,
was in Hull on the day of the catas
trophe and saw the ZR-2 meet her
fate. In his dream, he saw her split
in two and hurtle down Just as a few
days later it actually happened.
Lieutenant j. B. Lawrence also
dreamed that the ZR-2 was wrecked.
Shields was one of those selected to
take the trial trip on the big airship
but was taken i'll after boarding her,
owing to an earlier accident, and
Norman o. Walker took his place;
the latter being the only American
survivor after the wreck.
Mrs. Shields wrote to her husband
from the United States shortly be
fore the airship's trials saying that
she dreamed that tn ZR-2 was
wrecked, and imploring her husband
not to make the trip.

Silent Entrance for
Actors Is Desired

NEW YORK, Sept. sstsAssociated
Press MaiD-The impulse of theater-
goers to applaud actors as they step
out from the wings each night is
worrying Broadway. One manager
has included in the program a re-
quest that the audience break itself
of the habit.
The custom began with the greet
ings which star worshippers always
extend on the first appearance of
leading actors. Spurred on, skeptics
aver, by complimentary tickets, the
custom spread to lesser mortals. The
last straw came the other night when
tumultuous applause interrupted a
performance on the appearance of a
minor character, whose only assign
ment vas to that the coach
and pair are ready, sir.

~SpirituaIists Make
No Attempt to Prove

COPENHAGEN, Sept. 6.-(Associ-
ated Press Mail.)-Returning from a
visit to Hamlet's grave, one of the
American delegates to the 1nteTna-
tional Psychic Congress just held here
said with evident regret that the 40
delegates saw neither Hamlet's ghost
nor the ghost of Hamlet's father
stalking the historical ramparts of old
Elsinore Castle.
The president of the congress, DR..
Kort Kortsen, said that he was disap-
pointed at the outcome of the con-
gress.
we scientists" he said, proposed
to give spi~ritualists a fair trial to dem
onstrate the scientific basis of their
cult. They have done nothing to con
vince anybody. They arrived without
their mediums, bringing photographs
only of their materializations. We de-
manded proofs, but only got state
ments. That is not science. therefore
we scientists must protest"
