Bureau Will
Not Hold November
Meeting In Wailuku

Members of the Hawaii Tourist
Bureau will not come to Maui to hold
their November meeting as had been
planned. A wireless message receiv-
ed by the secretary of the Maui
Chamber of Commerce Monday said
the plan had been given up.
The decision relative to the meet
ing follows a considerable amount of
correspondence on the subject which
was originally taken up when Secre-
tary Gray was in Honolulu in Septem-
Der. Then it was planned for the
members of the bureau to be on Maui
for several days. Later correspond
ence from Secretary George Armitage
of the Tourist Bureau proposed that
the party come over on the Manoa
leaving Honolulu on Thursday night
and reach Maui mex Friday morning.
He asked for a meeting on Friday
morning, The original plan had been
for a joint meeting of the Bureau and
the Chamber.
Secretary Armitage was informed
that it would be difficult to get any
considerable number of Chamber
members together on a mail day
morning and there was mail in and
out that day. Later he wrote that
the idea was for the Bureau to hold
its own meeting here. The cores
pondence was before the Chamber at
its last meeting and Gray wrote to
Armitage Immediately after the meet
ing going further into the situation,
saying Maui would be glad to well
come the members OF the bureau but
that no general meeting with them
could be planned for the morning in
question though he would do all he
could to get a number OF representa-
tive citizens there if advised as to the
hour of the meeting. The wireless
was the answer to his letter.

Studebaker
Records 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.

Strange Birds Are Here

An eXOdus OF strange birds have
been noticed lately in this section of
the state and are quite numerous in
Emmett. They are gray color, with
q topknot Of several feathers on their
heads. They are smaller than q robin
with long slim bodies. According to
= birdologist, they are natives Of the
extreme north and are known as the
Waxwain. Old Bill Misgivens says
their habitat is the north pole, upon
which they roost at night, but that
when the north pole shifted recently.
as scientists proclaim it did, the
birds sent out scouting parties to seek
new location and have picked the

Rev. E. H. Head was a native of
Brasses Co., Texas. He was born
Nov. goth. 1845. In 1867 he was mar
ried to Amanda N. Salter. They came
to Idaho in 1889, living for several
years at Pearl. In 1894 they came to
the Payette valley. He was ordained
a Baptist minister at the Live Oak
Baptist church, Brown Co., Texas, in
September, 1877. In 1895 and 1897
he preached here at Emmett and is
well and highly esteemed by the peo-
pie who yet remain in the local Bap-
fist church and who remember him
from those early days. Mrs. Head
died in 1898. His pastorates were
chiefly in Texas and Oklahoma. Since
coming west he did the work of an
evangelist in Oregon and Idaho as
long as health permitted. The fun
eral was held on Friday afternoon at
the Bucknum chapel, Pastor A. C.

Take the blue print Of our castle
That We built 20 long ago;
It should build . similar structure
But we never find 1t 80.
What our youth in fancy pictured
May come true in actual life,
Though the beauty Of the scenery
May be married with worldly strife
For the fates are very tickle .
That's the way 1t always seemsi
When the painting Is accomplished
II is nothing like our dreams
For in dresm-land's mental picture
That our youth in fancy fixed
There was peace and JOY in plenty.
And there was no sadness mixed.
