q don's suppose you ever attended school of burglary?"
 "No," said the celebrated cracksman. 'Its a shame to make ambitious young fellows think they can master one of the most difficult of professions by taking lessons from some un- scrupulous faker who sells them a diploma. The only way to learn burglary is by practical experience. few years spent in the peni- tentiary in the society of accomplished crooks will also be found very helpful"

GOOD SCHOOLS DEPEND ON
 JUST TAXATION

Too often the citizen who sagely observes that education is a good thing, that we can't have too much of it, kicks like the proverbial bay steer when he is asked to help the cause of education by paying reasonable taxes.
 In ehis address before the citizens educa- tional conference yesterday Governor Kilby stated what everyone ought to know, that schools can neither be maintained nor built up to provide for the needs of an increasing population unless the people of means, those who own property, are willing to do their duty as citizens. It is not a question of philan- thropy. Millionaires may give large endow- ments to this that institution of higher education, but the burden of maintaining ernments
 As Governor Kby said yesterday, "The people are awakening to the fact that if the schools are ever to be improved, the improve ment must come from the people. It should come from the people who pay the taxes, from the business men and women who naturally think in larger terms than the school teachers
 
 who think in terms of their small salaries and work with children
 So far Governor Kilby has been victorious in fighting the efforts of the so-called "Tax Dodgers league and other influences op- posed to just imposition of taxes in Ala bama. Tax equalization has made some prog- ress against the protests of demagogues and property owners who would like nothing bet ter than to avoid paying taxes altogether, but might be willing to compromise on the old basis of 26 per cent of property's value. That is obviously too low. Alabama's progress in edu- cation depends on its citizens meeting their tax obligations cheerfully and honestly
 To use phrase of Governor Kilby, gov ernment run by voluntary contribution" would not be much of government and the schools would be the first to suffer.

Four matches were played in the
All-Maui doubles in the past lew days
and the tournament is now entering

Maui in the recen play. Deinert and
Taylor took their games from Bruss
and Walker after losing a first set
3-6, by a score of 6-3, 6-2 and 81. Engle
and Rietow also won for East Maui,
defeating Goto and Tamanaka in
straight sets by 60, 6-3 and ga.
Other matches decided were Walsh

Ting, the former winning 6-3, 81, 6-3,
Hansen and Wadsworth defeated Lind
say and Rosecrans in a hard fought
tilt 6-3 SO, 3-6 and 81.
In the settlement tournament the
semi-final match was unfinished be
cause of the late hour into which the
play ran. 1t is scheduled for Satur'

H~amakuapoko School
Leads In Athletics
Under Plan on Trial

Hamakuapoko school leads in the
grammar school athletics competition
which was started this year for the
first time on Maui and will be further
extended next year. The work was
started this year by Alexander House
Settlement when no county funds
were available for the purpose of in
PRODUCING physical training and health
culture into the schools and it is
hoped to extend it considerably next
year.
Reports have come in from the IS
schools in which the work was start
ed and reports have been complied.
They will be put in concrete form for
the next issue of Maui News.
Work starts in the third grade with
posture work. and grows into ath-
letic games and sports as the pupils
advance in the higher grades. A Gre
dit is given each child and the aver
ages taken by grades and for the
whole school. The work of the teach
ers, also, is scored in figuring results,
according to the interest shown and
the way the program is carried out.
Totals of the points for the athletic
work, for posturing and the teachers
points are secured and averaged. By
thus averaging the small schools can
be fairly compared with the larger
mes.
Hamakuapoko leads in four direc.
tons; it had the best average for the
pupils, the best for posturing, the
highest score for any grade and the
highest total. It's average is 1914
points. The pupils average was 496
the highest grade, the fourth, aver
aged 1904 and the teachers average
was 1857.
Keahua comes after Hamakuapokc
with 665.3 points, Olowalu third with
1922 and Haiku fourth with 522.7.

Ferris Wheel
Being Demolished

PARIS, May 17-(Associated Press
MaiD-Americans visiting Paris will
no longer see the famous Ferris
Wheel, which with the Eifrel Tower
for 20 years has been one of the most
familiar landmarks of the French
capital. Modern needs have decreed
that the colossal wheel make way for
a more profitable investment. Work
men are now dismantling the huge
steel structure, the axle of which
alone weighs $4,000 pounds and is set
a distance of 164 feet from the ground
Built in 1900, at the time of the
Paris exhibition from plans Of an Am
erican engineer whose name it bears,
the gigantic wheel has afforded pleas
ure and amusement to hundreds of
thousands of Parisians and foreign
visitors, young and old.

Movies Popularity
Still On Increase
In Western States

SAN FRANCISCO, May 27-Asso-
ciated Press Mail)-Popularity of the
silent drama and comedy in Pacific
and Rocky Mountain states is at
tested by the large increase in the
number of motion picture houses, &C
cording to latest figures available.
There were 1854 screen houses IN
those states the first of this year, as
compared with 1892 twlve months
before.
This increase of 262 theaters does
not fully tell the tale, for theaters
that hold 5000 persons and are equip
ed with h~igh-grade orchestras and
organs have displaced the oldtime
nickelodeon with its automatic piano
and crashing cymbals. Also many OF
the new picture theaters have vau
deville acts.
The neighborhood theater, however
that runs the best pictures, but a
little later than it's downtown proto-
type, has not been injured by the
development of the larger theater
with its elaborate equipment. Thea
trical men say the nearby houses
will continue to be popular because
mother can trot along with father and
the children after dinner without
bothering to dress up. Besides, the
amount saved on the lesser cost of
admission and buy walking a block
or two will buy Johnny a ball bat or
Mary a tennis racquet. Within SIX
months three theaters with an aggre-
gate seating capacity of $500 persons
have been opened in San Francisco

Public Boxing Bouts
ByW Frowned
On in the Philippines

MANILA, P. l. April, 30-(Associa-
billions by women are Objectionable
to John w. Green, chief of police of
Manila, who would prohibit them for
the sake of propriety and for "anato-
mical and physiological reasons
His views are set forth in a letter
to the mayor who referred the mat
ter to the city council with a request
that an ordinace be passed prohibiting
such exhibitions.
Since the passage of a law by the
recent legislature, permitting boxing
without specifying that it shall be
confined to the male soX, a number of
bouts in which women were the prin-
cipals + said to have taken place.
The chief of police in his letter to
the mayor on the subject says:
ut has come to my notice that on
several occasions lately in the city
of Manila women have taken part in
boxing as principals. For anatomical
and physiological reasons, contests of
this nature should not be permitted,
on the ground that exhibition of this
sort can be made very offensive and
suggestive and should not be permit
ted.
1T is requested therefore, that an
ordinance be enacted prohibiting fe-
males from taking part in any man
ner in any boxing contests held under
the provisions of the act OF the legis-
lature authorizing boxing, which ap-
pears to be silent on this point.
