Meanwhile the Legislature has added
death to the penalties for assault, re-

lied the Honolulu Police Department.
The Senate yesterday agreed to House

Mrs. Fortescue, Lieut.. H. Massie and
two enlisted naval men-Albert O.
Jones and E. J. Lord-were to have
pleaded to second degree murder

Beauty in a te st-tube

NLIvE oil for the complexion! Always known
~ to keep skin SOFT supple, youthful In thou
sands of years nothing has ever been found to
surpass this beauty secret of the ancients.
But can you get enough olive oil in soap? How
much, actually, goes into Palmolive? Here is the
exact amount-in this test tube at the right. The
exact amount used in every cake of Palmolive.
To this generous olive oil content can be directly
traced the great benefits of Palmolive Soap to
the complexion.
Do you know what is in any other soap you
may be using on your face? Palmolive tells you.
Palmolive is the only Iarge-selling soap made of
vegetable oils exclusively-the only one using
olive oil as base. Other Palmolive ingredients
are simply oils from palm trees necessary to
produce richer, creamier, more workable lather
than possible with olive oil alone PaImolive's
green color comes from the natural oils of which
it is made. There's not a drop of artificial
coloring added
Knowing the value of liberal amount of olive
oil in soap, more than 20 900 of the worlds lead.

to use Palmolive Soap as the finest possible safe
guard for lovely skin. ,-.<.

DON'T BE HARD ON YOUR FACE. .....
If you prefer washcoth for washing the face,
be sure you use very soft cloth. The fuzzy,
thick, hard-rubbing cloths some women use are
much too hard on delicate skin tissue. Work
the lather into face and throat then rinse it
off with warm water Palmolive Soap is recon-

action on the skin, even after rinsing. This

London's Hooligans.

Reports of the disorders in London
incident to the march of the unem-
ployed upon the British capital in
dicate that most of the trouble Is
attributable, not to the hunger
marchers" themselves but to sym
pathizers,' Londoners who are always
ready for a chance to make dis
turbance. These "hooligans," as they
are called, are in evidence on every
occasion Of public unrest and even Of
rejoicing, times when the usual order
of procedure is relaxed.
The hooligan is almost distinctive
London character. The name was given
to him first about forty years ago when
the young street ruffians of the south
eastern section of London - down
Whitechapel way-began to invade
ether portions of the capital. The
name hooligan was at first local in its
application 1t is believed to have
originated in a comic song popular in
the lower class music hall in the late
eighties and early nineties describing
the doings of a rowdy family of that
name.
In May. 1900, the hooligans Of the
east end carried their disorderly activi-
ties into central London on the night

city of Mafeking. which had been be-
sieged by the Beers of South Africa for

Why Not Use the Parks
For Private Parking? e?
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star
Two letters appeared in The Star
Wednesday on the subject Of using
the streets as garages. Mr.. Majower
gives an experience with q dishonest
garage owner, and one does not blame
him for being embittered and using
the streets as alternative. On the 9TH
er hand. Washington is town full of
alleys, with hundreds of little lookup
garages to be had for S. a month.
Weathertight, satisfactory and cheap
and dozens Of them empty. Just too
much trouble to drive around and
garage the car in the evening. knew
a man who paid an apartment rent of
$4,000 a gear, yet kept his Packard
away with it, so why not? If this con-
gestion of streets makes for trafic ac-
cidents, who cares? How many acci-
dents are due to sideswiping because
two rows Of cars parked" on each side
of a street make the center so narrow
collisions are unavoidable? How many
stop" signs are hidden by these rows
of dead cars, permanently garaged?
Mr.. Pfeiffer complains bitterly-and
with reason-at the inconvenience of
streets solidly choked with dead cars.
These thorcughfares are public thor
oughfares-or should be. They are not
maintained for individuals to use them
as garages. Today, in a street near
Dupont Circle, there is a car in the
gutter. covered with tarpaulin. battened
down and housed for the Winter. This,
by no stretch of the imagination. can
be called "two-hour parking" A friend
Of mine, resident CT Washington for
the last 10 years. has consistently done
all her shopping in New York-save for
the absolute necessities-as the nuisance
of shopping in the downtown areas was
too great. The inconvenience Of never
being able to drive up to a shop of
ever being able to park her car less
than a mile away, was too much for
her. On her various trips to New York
she bought the clothes, hats and books
that should normally have been bought
in Washington. Nor was this friend
unique. There are many others who
do the same thing-defer their pur-
chases till they can make them in New
York. where access to shops is con-
venient and easier. Washington mer-
chants lose much trade for this reason.
But If this garaging is to continue,
for heavens sake make use of the parks
and squares. Drive right in and park
under the statues. The city won't look
a bit more unsightly. Traffic conges-
tion will be relieved and accidents re-
duced below their present alarming level.

ing experiences in all London history.
A new word came into being from this
happening, "maficking," signifying un-
restrained rowdyism with destruction Of
property without any specific criminal
intent Much looting was undoubtedly
done by the hooligsns on "Mafeking
night" but on the whole the disorders
were simply an exuberance Of public
emotion, taking strange form Of
breaking windows and pulling down
lamp posts and other more or less de-
structive pranks.
In this present situation in London
the hooligans are undoubtedly sympa-
thizers with the petitioners for relief who
are swarming into the capital. Prob
ably most Of them are themselves job
less. ready for riot, perhaps ripe for
revolution. The London police. it ap-
pears from the dispatches, distinguished
between them and the marchers from
up country. Toward the latter they
showed no hostility. but for the hooli-
gans they showed no mercy. There Is q
veritable blood feud between the Lon
don hobbies and the east end rowdies.
and whenever on occasions OF public
disorder, such as strikes or as IN this
present instance, a march OF the job
less, the hooligans suffer severely.

From the Spokane Spokesman -Reyiew.
No matter how civilized we get. the>-
IS periodical reversion to type In tbs
Autumn. when the healthy male yields
to an unconquerable desire to 90 out
in the woods and shoot something.
Having felt the impulse grow for nearly
year, as soon as the law says, Co"
he leaps back to the Daniel Boone
period of the race, and the din Of his
fowling piece IS heard in the land
The desire to 60 out and shoot some
thing is generally classified under the
head Of sport. But it is deeper than
that. 1t reverts to the period in the
process Of evolution when a man had
to 60 out and shoot something If he
wanted to eat. Now. to be sure, he
eats his quarry If 1t Is sufficiently edi-
BILE, but even If he comes home with
an empty game bag he does not starve.
Hence, he claSsifies himself, not as q
hunter, but as . sportsman. He wears
special clothes. and his firearms ars

At bottom, however, 1t Is the same
old primal urge. Game laws exist to

With all this shooting going on dur

is more intense than 1t would be other
wise. With the woods and the fields
full of shooters, sometimes the wrong
things get shot. Casualties occur
