when he comes to us in December.
mo drive has ever been made, how
ever, for our own territorial %associa-
ton, the Hawaii Education Associa-
ton; and since Maui is to be the host
ess for the II. Z. A. convention of
delegates in December, it seems a
most fitting time for us to work for
100 percent membership in both this
and our Maui association, for we have
even greater reason for supporting
our local associations than we have
for joining the national organization.
Membership in these associations
should appeal to all teachers in the
Island, for the following reasons:
81. 1t will give us a feeling Of com
radeship with all other teachers in the
Territory.
"2. 1t will help to arouse our in
terest in all large educational prob
lens that confront us. II will enlarge
our horizon, and help us TO see what
it is all about, thus giving us a men
tai stimulus in our attitude toward
our tasks, that will make them seem
worth while accomplishments, not
mere drudgery.
Aid Policy Formation
"3. We shall be able to lend a hand
in forming the educational policies OF
the territory, which are occupying the
thought of the best minds in the isl.
ands today.
81. These associations stand for
fuller and better equipment Of the
tools we need in our every day work
We are asking for larger appropria
ton for books, maps, charts and al
the paraphernalia that goes to make
up the equipment OF the modern
school. Help us to get the tools that
will make your task lighter and fuller
of satisfaction.
"5. You will be able, as a member
to take an active part in our coming
convention, and to hear the stirring
message that will come to us from
Honolulu and from across the seas.
"6 If none of these things appea'
to you. then join merely as a business
proposition, for these associations are
working in the interest of your breat
and butter, and mine. They are work
ing for an up-to-date pension bill that
will replace our present obsolete law
on that subject. The enactment Of
this bill into law will affect every
teacher in the territory financially
You cannot ignore it. Join our asso
citation and work either for or against
it at u convention in December. Il
the proposed bill is wrong, let's right
it. These associations are working
in a quiet way to forestall any move
ment for reduction in teachers saIa

and
Reasons

Ride in a Studebaker Special Six-better still, sit behind
the steering wheel and drive it yourself; in less than )
minutes you will understand one Of the several reasons
why Studebaker sales have established a record in Homo
lulu, in Hawaii and throughout America this year.
Quiet power, quiet beauty, sure and undisputed; simple
ity and ease of operation; quality of material-in short,
it delivers just about everything you can ask of a motor
car. You may pay more for a Car but it is impossible
to get finer materials or better craftsmanship than are
used by Studebaker.
In Hawaii, as elsewhere, it is noticeable that business
and professional men and their families more and more
are driving Special Skies. Reliability, comfort, good
appearance and economy in maintenance are perhaps
the outstanding reasons for this rapidly growing popu-
larity.

31 Years Ago Today, Noted
 Show Man Died.
By FAX LUDLOW.

Thirty-one years ago today, April v, 1891, one of Bridgeport's best friends-one of the best friends Bridgeport will ever have, died. Phineas T. Barnum was buried in the town he loved so well and for which he did so much. His funeral was held from the old South church, Broad street and his remains laid to rest in Mountain Grove cemetery.
 Born in Bethel, Conn.,, July 5, 1910 he became the greatest snowman of his time-probably of all time. For P. T. Barnum was the pioneer in many things important to the circus busi- ness of today. He was the first Amer ican snowman to take a show to Europe. He made money and came back whole Few, if any, have ac- complished that feat since. He was the first snowman to carry his cara van by rail; the first to have more than one tent; and the first to have a separate menagerie.
 He did many things to make him famous, and to make Bridgeport known the country over He exploit ed Tom Thumb. brought the famous Jumbo to this country; and then had

CHAPMAN CASE
 STILL UNDECIDED

After having been in the hands of Attorney Scofield of Stamford since long before Christmas, and after a Der 16 for a return of decision re- viewed, in 10 days, which has never been compiled with, a motion will be argued before Judge Isaac Wolfe in Superior court today. asking a reVo- cation of order of reference to com nlittee, in the matter of Paul s. Chapman, attorney, against Kate Bar bour Chapman.
 The Chapmans have been divorced for some years, the matter of dispute being the custody of Stanley Chap man, now by order of the court, with the mother in Wilton, all save the summer months. When heard for a modification of decree the case ex- cited unusual interest through being heard in chambers, and the fact that the defendant was alleged to be not of sound mind, and therefor unfit to care for the boy. Every effort was made to have the case decided be- fore the Christmas holidays that the boy might be placed in a boarding school after the holiday recess.
 Referee Scofield for some uneX- plained reason has never been able to arrive at a decision. Should the motion for the revocation of the or der of reference be allowed ii means that the matter will be right back where it started. and that in all probability the entire matter will have to be heard again.

 P. T. Barnum has one survivor that became famous through Barnums
 press genting-'tZip,'' Barnum' s famous "What-Is-It''. Zip is still alive and on exhibition and just as many people every year try to dope out Zip as they did when the famous old gen tleman was alive. One of P. T. Bar num's most criticized undertakings, and what proved one of his most sue cessful ventures was arranging for and carrying out the countrywide tour of the famous song bird Jenny Lind.
 P. T. Barnum made his home in Bridgeport. The show that bears his name still calls Bridgeport home Down in Seaside Park, the park that first gave Bridgeport its name the Park City, stands the silent, lone some statute of P. T. Barnum. Every year P. T. Barnun's birthday comes and goes, sometimes his old show plays Bridgeport on that birthday, but the statue stands alone, silent and lonesome, just the same. for the old timers seem to have forgotten; and the newcomers know Barnum best as the man who made the remark that "the public likes to be humb mbugged."
