RAILROAD INEFFICIENCY

Recent negotiations OF local people
with railroad authorities, IN efforts to
secure convenient transportation to
the cVangclistic meeting in progress
at Spartanburg, inclincs us TO agree
in part with railway labor unions that
the troubles Of the railroads are not
due entirely to wages, but that poor
management is proving costly In
spite Of widespread desire Of many
people to attend the meetings and the
opportunity for profitable operation Of
trains, as indicated by the large pa
trnnagc on the special train run from
here last week and the continued de-
mands for another train since that
time, both from this CO. ;r.' c'hnr
places, the railroads have positively
refused to initiate any movement to
p%6it by this favorable situation o.

Children's Home

On Saturday, September 80, the CON
tract for the erection of the Maui
Children's Home was awarded to X.
Honda for sS459, materials to be fur.
nished him. 1t is estimated that the
total cost, exclusive of furnishings
will be about $4,000. The building
will be located on the Catholic
Church Mission property and will be
under the conduct of the Catholic
sisters. 1t is hoped to have it caring
for unfortunate little folk before the
middle of next year.
At first it was proposed to make
the institution non-sectarian entirely
except that the children would be
cared for physically by the sisters.
They could attend such school as was
wished and such church as was de-
sired. Some splendid support for the
project was offered but the plan fail
ed because of the fact that Catholic
sisters would be in charge and there
would be a strong Catholic represen.
tation on the board. However, by no
neal all of the Protestant support
was withdrawn and religious creed
will not be considered when an I'M
fortunate needs it's fostering care.
lFor a year past and more, there
have bee various efforts to raise
sufficient funds to start the project.
1t had support from the county
through the giving to its promoters
for building purposes old material
from the abandoned buildings of Ma
lulani Hospital.
Father Justin has worked tirelessly
for the project and di~SinterestedlV I'M
the completion of the work and its be-
ing put to public use will be one of
the most important achievements for
the public good that he has accom-
plished on Maui.

work of the lower grades. An indus
trial supervisor has charge of all
these lines of activity, and while all
due credit is due to Mr.. Bowman for
his splendid pioneer work, we shall
look to his successor, Mr.. Rogers, for
leadership that shall greatly enhance
the scope of this department, and
make Maui "No IA OF" in industrial
education, particularly along the line
of agriculture.
Gardens
Seventeen years ago the school gar
den on Maui was, with one or two eX-
ceptions rather a dream than a real
ity. The Star-Bulletin contest has
done much to make that dream come
true. School gardens of one or two
acres are now to be found, while the
school that has nc garden at all seeks
some apology for not having one. But
agricultural work in the schools, far
from being developed to a high de-
gree of efficiency is as yet in it's in
fancy on Maui. There is room for
an increase, both in the area cult
waited and in the enthusiasm with
which it is done. Let us hope that
Mr.. Rogers, bringing as he does ex-
pert knowledge coupled with its prac-
tical application to island conditions,
will lead us on to greater achieve
ments in scientific agriculture as a
school project.
School Kitchens
The school kitchen is another inno-
walton within the last decade. There
are now five such kitchens supplying
full time domestic science teachers.
These are located at Kan. Ill, Wailu-
ku, Puunene, Paia, and Maui High.
These school kitchens have fully
demonstrated their usefulness, and
are nov functioning better than ever
before. They furnish a substantial
lunch at low cost to hundreds of
school children who would otherwise
spend their nickels on cheap candy.
In some schools each unit, say soup
and a sandwich or rice and stew, is
furnished at 2h cents, so that a good
meal may be had for 5 or 10 cents.
