, remoteness of these settlements made
it necessary that there be some ready
means Of transportation and communi-
cation as a means of self protection
for all.
The first Of the overland Transports.
ton methods were the OK drawn
wagons of the early pioneers. Com.
munications were sent by messenger
or entrusted to the care of those In
charge Of the wagon trains. The next
step were the stages which carried
both mail and passengers leaving tile
slower conveyances to handle freight.
As an improvement on the stage coach
for delivering messages, the pony
express was originated. AS the rail-
road was an outstanding improvement
over the wagon train so was the tele,
graph an improvement over the stage
coach and the pony express.
The telegraph. invented by Samuel
F. B. Morse, was first used between
Baltimore and Washington, May "a,
1874. With the construction of tele-
graph lines messages were trans
mitted quickly over great distances,
but 1t was not until 1876 that there
came into use direct person-to-person
communication system that made it
possible for two people in widely sep
arated places to carry on a converse
ton as if in the same room.
From two telephones first used on
March 10. 1875, has come the immense
communication system of 10000 cen
trail Offices connecting 1880, 900 tele.
phones by network OF wires covering
every section of the country. Tele-
phone users now make about 72,O00,-
600 calls daily in this country. The
telephone has not only grown with the
United States, but undoubtedly has
done much to help the United States
to grow. This instrument OF service
is far cry from the inscription rocks
of the seventeenth century, but 1t is
well to remember that the world was
not built in day.

Most of the changes in the man.
ner of social life in Hawaii have
come in the last rs years, and much
of it can be traced to the time
when Hawaii was found to be the
ideal spot for pineapple planta-
lions and the biggest ones in the
world began to be established
there.
With the pineapple plantations
came the opportunity for natives
to find abundant work in the fields
I-out-of- work in the land they
loved best. Higher wages than
they had ever before received en-
abled them to think of things out
side the little banana and tarc
patch at home. g
Schools were built and with edu-
cation came the desire for better
homes. Slowly the little grass huts
gave way to small cottages. These
cottages grew in size as the work
ers became more prosperous and
many who became rich in the in
dustry built homes which are now
pointed out to sightseers Of the
Paradise Islands.
Women were employed in the
new pineapple canneries and ideals
of cleanliness instilled into then
which were carried to the home

The capricious weather took a very
freakish turn last Saturday, sending
the mercury tumbling down until it
reached a point eight degrees below

consequence everybody stayed by

Rev. E. E. Campbell is still confined

diet of "poi," which is Hawaiian
bread made from the taro root,
fish, cooked bananas and raw pine
apples. They learned among other
things something of the dietetic
benefit of the canned pineapple
which they were producing and up
in the big cafeteria, they sampled
new ways of serving it
With employment for women in
the canneries came day nurseries
for children. These nurseries we're
equipped with the best gymna-
Sums and Fairgrounds for chill
dren. Clinics were introduced so
that "better babies" as well as
"better pineapples" could be grown
in Hawaii. Trained kindergartners
were hired to teach the kiddies or
ganized play, ard dietitians taught
the mothers what foods their chill
dren should eat.
Hawaiians began to take a keen
interest in the big pineapple plan
tations which afforded then a bet
ter living, and they took a greater
pride in making them the best
fields and canneries found any
where in TIE world.
Climate brought wealthy visitors
from everywhere to enjoy the
Story Of Hawaiian sunshine and
the magic OF Hawaiian moonlight.
Hotels with their entertainment
brought over to Hawaii the gaiety
and life that Hawaiians love.
An annual pageant conmemor-
ates the Hawaii that used to be.
Great luaus, feasts, are held, food
is cooked in underground ovens,

Y 7ISITORS to Hawaii are some
" times surprised to find in
stead of grass huts, ovens
built in the ground, beautiful
American homes, cosmopolitan
cuisines and pineapple plantations
which are among the most modern
of any plantations in the world.
They are apt to forget that al
though the islands of Hawaii have
been civilized only q comparatively
snort time as civilization goes, dur
ing that time they have been civ
ilized at high pressure Owing to
the magic of Hawaiian climate and
natural beauty, they have quickly
become one Of the most cosmopol-
itan spots of the world.
It is this curious mixture of the
old and the new which makes Ha-
waii so interesting.
Yesterday the little girl who sat
before her grass hut knew only
the art of mat-weaving or lauhala
hat making. In the long Hawaiian
evenings she sat inside her hut list
ening to the legends Oh the Fire
gods told by the old folks as they
sat mending their nets TO the next
days catch. She could swim and
dive. shiny a cocoanut tree and
drop down the big nuto whose milk
was so cooling even under tropical
suns; and she could go "torch fish
ing" with the men who waded deep
out at sea with torch and spear tc
catch the squib and eel.
Today she sits on the lanai, OF
veranda, and reads, or chats in
very good English with friends
over Kona coffee, Hawaiian pastry
pineapple jam or poha Jelly. She
still loves adventure. Often in the
evenings she goes down to the big
American hotels and enjoys the
jazz music, even though 1t is Sc
different from The waiting melo-
dies of her people. For "d7'or+''r0us

Powdered Milk

According to "The Story of Foods"
by Forrest Crissey, powdered milk is
made by forcing fresh milk by com
pressed air through fine nozzles, so
that it is sprayed out in a mist. d.
rectly below the MOBILES are openings
sending up very hot air The instant
the milk mist strikes this hot air it Is
turned into steam and carried up
through a funnel-shaped cone into a
large room or cupola. The sides Of
this room are screened with wooden
fabric or mill gauze, through which
the hot air and steam pass. But the
solid particles of the milk are caught
by it and dropped into bins.

"SiLencers'" Good Work

With the development of a mechan-
ical silencer, oil-electric locomotives
have been made as noiseless and
smokeless as an automobile on the city
streets. AS it rests atop the engine
the device traps the escaping engine
exhaust without interfering with the
outflow of gases to the atmosphere
The exhaust passes through the ST.
lencing unit with rotary motion,
much as does water in n turbine. A
smooth and unohstructed passage Is
offered, which reduces b1c' pressure

VALUABLE STEREOPTICON SLIDES ON PROHIBITION
E. ]. Richardson

l have just had the pleasure of view
ing set of fifty stereopticon slides pro-
duced by the Department of Moral Wei
fare of the Presbyterian Church in the
u. S. A., bearing especially upon the
Personal Liberty phase of the subject.
There are fifty slides in the set, and
they are accompanied by a clear, type
written lecture which is attractively bound
in loose-leaf, black-leather binder. The
lecture is quite interesting and deals
briefly, yet comprehensively, with the
subject matter of each slide.
The slides are all colored and present
very attractive appearance on .he screen.
The history of real liberty is traced from
the time when the Pilgrim Fathers signed
the Mayhower Compact before landing
on the shores of the new world. Appro-
pirate pictures of such men as Governor
John Winthrop, signers of the Declara
ton of Independence, John Adams, George
Washington, Thomas Jeffersons, John
Marshall, Abraham Lincoln, Grover C1eve-
land, Theodore Roosevelt, William How
ard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Warren G..
Harding, President Coolidge and Charles
z. Hughes are given, together with some
of their most striking statements as to
the fundamental principles of true liberty.
Interspersed among these pictures are
graphs taken principally from Prof Fish
er's Prohibition at Its Worst" dealing

with arrests for drunkenness, etc. There
are also other graphs and pictures which
help to present prohibition in most prac-
teal and convincing way. The slides and
lecture could be very prohtably used in
these days when education of the masses
as to prohibition is so greatly needed.
The slides and lecture are packed in
very neat, black leather-covered, carry
ing case inside of strongly constructed
mailing case, with handle The rental
charges are very reasonable, and further
particulars can be obtained by writing to
the Slides Service Department, 1904 Co
lurnbia Bank Building, Pittsburgh, Penn

OF our readers will avail themselves of the
opportunity of securing the lecture and

before the Circuit Court of Appeals at
Richmond and twice before the Supreme
Court of the United States.
Other important cases in which DIR.
Wheeler participated in the United States
Supreme Court, either as counsel or as
amicus curiae, included the National Pro-
hibition Cases UNFOLDING the validity of
the Eighteenth Amendment and the con-
stitutionality of the Volstead Act:
Hawke V. Smith, in which the Supreme
Court decided that referendum provisions
of state Constitutions are inapplicable to
ratification of amendments to the Federal
Constitution.
United States V. Yuginovich, involving
the effect of the National Prohibition Act
upon the internal revenue laws.
Cunnard Steamship Company V. Mel

the constitutionality of the Supplemental
Prohibition Act was upheld.

liquors.
These are but few of the more i'm
portant cases in which he participated. In
cases in which he did not actually partici-
pate his advice was constantly sought by
attorneys in such cases. In addition he
appeared before the courts of number
of states in litigation involving the con-
stitutionality of state laws. He was also
contributor to law periodicals, many of
his articles appearing in the Central Law
Journal and a very recent one in the IL
linois Law Journal entitled as Consti-
tutional Convention Impending% He al
so edited the work Federal and State
Laws Relating to Intoxicating Liquors"
which appeared in three editions.

Shortly after his admission TO the bar
in Ohio, Wayne B. Wheeler was ire
quently called upon to prosecute vio-
Iators Of The liquor laws. He tried more
than two thousand such cases before the
courts Of Ohio. His most important work
from the legal standpoint came later IN
litigation involving important questions
Of constitutional law in connection with
prohibition legislation. Probably his great
est victory was in the decision OF the SUI
preme Court of the United States in the
case of the James Clark Distillng Com
pany against the Western Maryland Rail
way Company, decided in 1917.
This case was twice argued 1t in
vo1ved the constitutionality of the Webb
Kenyon Act which removed the Inter
state Commerce protection from intoxl-
eating liquors when shipped into state
in violation of the law of the state. This
decision made it possible for the states
to enforce their state prohibitory laws
against the attempts of the liquor deal
ers to ship liquors into the states from
without in violation Of state policy. AS
the states were better able to enforce
their statewide laws the sentiment for
national prohibition grew. Something of
the Importance of this decision is shown
by the fact that William Howard Taft
now Chief Justice of the United States
Supreme Court who was at the time of
the passage of the WebbKenyon Act
President of the United States, upon the
advice of his Attorney General, Mr..
Wickersham, vetoed the bill when it was
first passed by Congress upon the grounds
that it was unconstitutional Despite the
views entertained by these eminent law
yers, DIR. Wheeler undertook the defense
of this legislation in the courts and with
Fred O. Blue, an attorney who was at
that time State Commissioner of Prohibi-
ton of West Virginia, argued the cause

TRANSPORTATION BANNED
North Carolina Supreme Court Holds I'm
portation of Liquor for Personal
Use Unlawful

The North Carolina state prohibition
law which was rewritten in 1923 in order
that it might more closely conform to the
Volstead act, has been materially strength
ened by decision of the state Supreme
Court in which it is held unlawful for any
person to transport Intoxicating liquors
for personal use, says special Raleigh
dispatch to the Christian Science Monitor
OF September 20.
The opinion was written by Chief JUS
tice w. p Stacy, and the case in question
was appealed by the state. The lower
court had held that the defendant did not
violate the state law when he purchased
and transported liquor to his home The
Supreme Court has now ruled otherwise.

MOST STATE TIME

District Judge Ben Dawkins of LOU

warrants must bear the authorized time

ton of the federal law which provides
that the approximate time of the raid
shall be given on the warrant. That Sec
ton has been disregarded to date, it was
said Judge Dawkins' ruling will make
the work of federal prohibition agents
harder.
