We profane meal time with business
and shroud it in silence. Laughter
is apt to cause startled glances and
wonderment as to chow you got it,"
Ever take a look around hotel

pie are making an animated, laugh
ing festival Of their meal? Count
them some time. You won't need a
comptometer And, some way, it is
hard to be sociable with nothing
but cold water beside the plate. A
good soft drink will promote laugh
ter, leisure and conversation, which
are the best digestants known.

much rather have the folks who are
already in the business sell them.
We do not believe in multiplying re-

Look at the crowded soda fountains

hotels have in attractive surround
ings and the accompanying food.
The Waiter as Salesman
Positive methods beat negative
ones every time The hotels would
sell soft drinks if they offered good
ones at a fair price and sold them
instead Of waiting diffidently for
some one to buy them. Even The
iced coffee in restaurants is very
Indifferent stuff, watery and thin

a coffee that was first mixed with
the cream and then shaken as you
would a cocktail, with only enough
ice to chill it? That is iced coffee
and it is good to the last drop" in
stead of steadily degenerating as
the ice melts. If you sit over a
glass of iced coffee as it is ordinarily
served you are lost. 1t becomes dish
water.
The soda fountains serve it bet
ter than ninc-tenths of the hotels.

A Miniature Electrical Hot
Plate; Low Cost and Good Work

THERE are so many places in the
world needing an unobtrusive
little electric hot plate that the ap-
pearance Of new model at an amaz-
ingly low price finds welcome, even
though the list of table stoves is
already long.
The Little Chef electric stove is
designed and constructed 50 that
it will sell for a 81 bill (bad
luck to keep them, anywayD, and
yet it serves satisfactorily for the
summer cottage, the camp and porch
luncheon, or for the kitchenetter
who demands immediate, quick serv-
ice rather than long life and heavy
work for her kitchen devices.
Constructed of depressed thin
sheet steel, the hot plate, with its
5la afoot connecting cord, weighs but
one and one-fourth pounds and oc-
cupiess over all, a space by s.
inches. The top and legs are in one
piece and an area 414 by 5 inches
above the heating coils has been
stamped out in three-quarter inch
squares, leaving a gridwork of the
sheet metal a short distance above
the heating element.
Choose the Pots With Care
Since we have square surface on
this hot plate, care should be taken
to have the cooking pots large
enough to cover it as completely as
possible. Much heat is lost around
the sides when a small round pot is
used. Another precaution that
should be observed, If you are to
make the breakfast coffee in a mini
mum amount of time, is to cover the
pot III which the water boils. Still
another way of saving time is to
plug in the electric line. before you
start to measure the water or cof--
fee. for it was found when we
started with the stove cold and two
cups of water at tap temperature
GO degree F.) that it took seven
teen minutes to bring it TO the boil
ing point. When we later put the
same amount of water in the same
pot over the heated plate it was only
thirteen minutes until it boiled
hriskly. The diameter of the bot
tom of the pot was 5la inches. The
same amount of water in a pot
which was but three-quarters of an
inch less in diameter required a
minute and half longer to bring it
to boiling.

HONOLULU, December 1s.-That

cally and economically by q few sugar
capitalists. at whose mercy one-third
there is no labor shortage and that
the importation OF Chinese coolies for
the plantations would mean "reviving
slavery in an integral part Of the
United States" were some Of the
trenchant paragraphs in q statement
submitted to the federal labor .inves-
tisation commission by the japanese
Laborers' Association.
The commission, which recently
heard q statement from the Filipino
Labor Union. also denying the exist
ence Of labor shortage, was ap-
pointed by the federal government to
investigate the situation In the
islands following the appeal from Va
waii for permission to admit contract
Chinese labor for stated periods.
Driven From Homes.
Japanese threatened to dominate the
territory's business. the Japanese La
borers' Associations statement said:
"Unmerciful capital drove the ma
tives OF Hawaii from their homes and
from the soil to make way for sugar.
(Which occurred . number of years
ago under the monarchy sounded
the death knell Of the Hawaitans.
There exists in Hawaii sugar
kingdom. due to the fact that the
capitalists Of the sufar industry have
invincibhe influence on the political
and economic life Of the islands and
possess all land suitable for sugar
cultivation almost to the last acre.
One-third OF Hawaii's population Is
living at the mercy Of the sugar
planters"
The statement declared that the
Japanese population of the islands
had fallen of 1900 between the
years 1906 and 1922. while the Filipino
population was showing heavy in
drove out the japanese and the plant
ers hope that the Chinese will drive
out the Filipinos."
Ceolie Menace Scored.
The association further asserted
that the actual labor shortage May
last was 953. and continued: THE
importation Of Chinese coolies would
ican ideas. 1t would mean the re-
vival of slavery In an integral part
Of the United States"
The statement closed with the
declaration that plantation workers
cannot live on their present wages.
and intimated that higher WAGES and
general reform of the treatment they
receive on the plantations would keep
them on the job. ., >.
The commissioners announced to-
day they would close their. tnvesttga-
tion and leave for the mainland on
the steamer City Of Los Angeles.
They refused to make any state
ment as to their decision, and stated
that they had mass Of documents
and statistics which would have to
be digested before a finding would be
