1t is the theory of the Hearst sup
porters that the Democratic party
should take the extreme radical posi-

undoubtedly will reflect the views OF

of the battle over the Governorship.
Until that is settled speculation as TO
the identity OF other candidates would
be futile and probably wrong.

 Politics BoIIs Over
 Women's politics is simmering so violently that now and then a kettle bofls plumb over, with q great up roar of escaping steam and every body running to see what's the trou- ble. Indignation is rather pale word for the emotion with which various women's organizations view the defeat of two women's rights bills sponsored by New York city women. The legislators al Albany don't care tuppence about having women serve on juries. nor do they give boot about granting the ladies equal rep resentation on political county com mittees. In fact, since New York women got the vote, the legislators have passed hardly a measure giving women increased privileges. The women are gazing darkly in the dt- rection of Albany and bidding the he-legislators just wait"
 Meanwhile, the stage folks have plan by which the drama may be made entirely moral, so that it won bring a blush to the cheek of seraph. Their idea is to have each play judged by jury drawn from a panel of ordinary citizens-no theatre people and no reformers need apply. If the ordinary citizen jury decides to be shocked at play. the manager and producer must consent to with draw it immediately. Heaven only knows what the result will be if the plan goes into, effect.

 New York, January 2S.-At last, the perfect mother-in-law She mo- tored over to New York city from YJersey the other day and married her widowed son-in-law. What stronger tribute could any woman receive that having her son-in-law marry her? Q
 Mrs. George R. Uthe. who wa Mrs. Sarah Mcdonald, has lived in the same house with her present hus. band, during which he dutifully called her mother" A year ago, Uthes wife died. Both mother-in- law and son-in-law were anxious to keep the home together, hence the quiet wedding of a few days since. "A sort of business arrang cement" explains Mrs Uthe, who is widely known in New York as a founder and vice president of the Women's Press club. She broke another. record for bsides by the admission that she is considerably older than her 50-year- old bridegroom: "Old enough to be his mother"
 All of which leads to the conclu. sion that if George 1.-the had found the perfect mother-in-law Mrs. George 1.-the has not less surely hap pened on the perfect son-in-law.

 Mrs. Luckie was born with person ality of a very high crder, and her sense of humor is not the least ad- Junct of that personality. Her warm heart and sunshiny nature draw peo- pie of all ages and conditions to her. She is an optimist who smiles on the world through diversity and prosper ity.

 Family Parties in Jail
 In the Ludlow Street jail, by thi way. there have been family parties recently. In one day five prisoners were locked up because of legal ac- tions brought by near relatives. A husband and wife came through com plaint of the wifes mother two brothers came through complaint of sister; and a son came through ac- tion brought by hls father. Of all the complainants, the incensed mother who jailed her daughter and son-in-law was the angriest. She said that her daughter had given the son-in-law S3,000 belonging to the mother and that the son-in-law had staked it in crap game-and lost. To lose under such circumstances seemed to her quite inexcusable.

 And what is the secret of the spara- dox? The secret, very simply, is that bad acting often enchants by virtue of it's very artlessness, where highly proficient acting leaves one cold. Act ing that lacks sound artistic design is, in this, much like some ugly old easy chair. It has much of the cozy ease and agreeable frendliness that a beautiful, stiff Sheraton lacks.

COLLEGES and the Girl Scout

The National Council of Girl Scouts
with headquarters in New York, has
made a drive during the last six
months to stimulate college training

Two training courses have been in

the spring courses will be given at
Holyoke College, Vassar, Wellesley,
the Connecticut College for women

Kahului

Last Monday was the regular meet
ing day of the Roselani Troop. 1t
was also the first day of vacation so
a return party was given to the Kahu-
lui Boy Scouts, at the Settlement
Beach House. Captain Gardner had
the party in charge, assisted by her
capable little scouts.
The guests were ten Boy Scouts,
Scoutmaster Spencer, Miss Verna Hut
ton and Miss Seibert.
It was an Easter Egg Party. Color
ed eggs were hidden inside and out
side the house, and such a scramble
there was to find the pretty things.
Some had five and all had one, and
the more fortunate generously shared
with the less.
The game of pinning the hat on the
Easter bunny (blindfolded) created
much merriment.
Last came the peanut hunt. The
party was divided into five teams and
after choosing a captain and the
name of some animal the chase for
nuts began. Upon finding a peanut
each member was forced to stand in
the midle of the room and initiate the
animal chosen-namely, dog, wolf
cow, cat, etc. 1t was a veritable bah
BILE.
Lemonade was served with the eggs
and peanuts. Songs were sung, yells
given and all left feeling that Captain
Gardner and the Roselani scouts were
the most charming and interesting OF
hoSteSSeS.
