get to the "remodeling" part of
this article before I run out of
paper.
The building itself is surround
ed by grounds quite in harmony
with the park "just across the
street" which 1 have previously
diagnosed
Where formerly were the conval-
essence and foreign wards, we now
have a fine three story wing and
a ground floor consisting of forty
six rooms in all, with the addition
of a splendid first class operating
room, X-Ray room, eye, ear, nose
and throat operating room and a
bandage dressing room on the third
or top floor
The surgical and medical wards
are now being used for foreigners.
These wards have. thirteen beds
each, while the new rooms have
from one to four beds, which when
all are occupied, the hospital will
accommodate 130 patients.
There are three wonderful sun
porches built on the new wing and
each equipped with fine radio set
presented to the hospital by the
Order of Railway Conductors. All
and all we have very good back
shop" for our employees, and it will
be still better when duplicate of
the new part is built on the other
wing.
Including many specialists, there
are about 25 doctors on the staff.
35 nurses, and believe me all pretty
girls aren't in the movies, II house
keepers and janitors and about a
crew of ten in the kitchen and din
ing room.
One thing about this hospital Of
ours, is that they either kill or
cure you. That's all l have to say.

15Oth ANNIVERSARY
BE CELEBRATED BY
HAWAIIANS In 1928

Tentative plans for an elaborate
observation in 1928 of the 150th an
niversary of the discovery of Ha-
waii by Captain James Cook, the
English navigator, have been sub
mitted to Bruce Cartwright, presi-
dent Of the Hawaiian Historical
society, by Albert Taylor, librarian
of the territorial archives.
The proposed program would in
clude a visit to the islands by an
international fleet of warships and
the minting of an American coin in
commemOration of the discovery Of
the archipelago which was named
the Sandwich island after Captain
Cooks patron, the Earl of Sand
witch.
Taylor pointed out that the cele-
bration would have an almost uni
versal interest in view of the fact
that so many nations played part
in the building up of the islands,
their civilization, industry and
commerce, following the discovery
These he listed as Great Britain
the United States, Russia, France,
and Spain. Denmark and Sweden
also became friendly with the king
dom of Hawaii and probably would
be included in the celebration.
Taylor suggested that the his
torical society bring the proposals
to the attention of Governor Wal
lace R. Harrington and request that
he ask the state department to ex-
tend formal invitations to the va
rious governments to send repre-
sentatives and men-of-war to the
islands during the celebration. Dur
ing the visit the vessels might visit
Kealakekua bay, island of Hawaii,
where Captain Cook was killed on
his second visit to the islands.
He also suggested that $4,000
be minted specially in 50-cent
pieces and that this amount be un-
derwritten in the islands.

remaining seven men in the tunnel
Gases drove rescue workers from
the tunnel shortly after the accident,
and it is believed that there is no way
the entombed men could survive the
poisonous fumes. Railway officials
have sent additional rescue forces and
equipment to effect a speedy finding
of the victims.
