Chamber OF Commerce
IIlaugurates Drive To
Increase Memberships

the Keys during off periods in
which the secretary has played a
decisive part.
The opinion was given that due
to the legal liabilities which might
arise at some time in this matter,
it would be the proper action of
the secretary OF the chamber to
Withdraw from the activity called
a great work, which he and Mr.
Pearlman has been carrying on.
This action was regretfully
taken by the secretary. The work
has been done with the greatest
good win, it was shown, and has
been productive of very appre-
ciable results. The men effected
by the movement have given the
efforts of Mr.. Pearlman and Sec
rotary Singleton, the warmest ap-
probation.
Two other matters which are
filled with intense Importance to
Key West were discussed and at
some time in the future when the
time is ripe for relative announce
ments, the chamber will make the
details public.

Hearts Don't Beat
In Hawaii---They Hula

HONOLULU, Aug. 13.--To
most people the word ''hula"
means Eawaii's rhythmic dance,
but to a Hawaiian language pnr-
ist it may mean anything from a

So sass Leila Holt, assistant
territorial archivist, citing a 100
year-oId Hawaiian dictionary as
authority. The ancient. volume,
published in 1886, was discovered

ment; to palpitate, as the heart;
to throb, as an artery; to go
through a solid substance; to expel

SOFT COAL, TOO

( COLUMBIA, Mo-, Aug. 3D.
Do hogs eat hay? Professor L. A.
Weaver of the Missouri College
of Agriculture says he would like
to settle the question once and
for all that they do.
The animal husbandry profess
sor explains the hogs may act
snooty at times, however, and de-
mand that nice leafy legume hay
be Clipped up for them before
they eat it.
'Legume hay is an essential
part of feeding hogs. especially if
they are fastened up in a dry

"And while on the subject" he
adds, ''raisers should throw in hog
rations a quantity of bone meal
and salt 1t supplies phosphorus
and calcium.
"When hogs don't get these
valuable substances, they some
times eat soft coal. There's no ex.
cuse for hogs to eat good bit

of shipmates is that of Man

word. Speedy and accurate. This
is another of the incidents OF life
on board ship where loss of seconds
may mean the loss of a valuable
member of the ships company.
The alacrity with which the
call was answered by the MEM

eral ships, was remarkable, it was
said, and the facility which the
desired end was reached in each
instance, elected words OF praise.
In this contest the winners
were: Yamacraw over the No
jave; Pandora defeated the Ne
mesis and the Dix won over the
Colfax and the vigilant. To the
winners in each class 80 points
were given.

in the cutter class; Pandora 20
points and the Nemesis so points
in the 165 foot patrol boat class;
Dix 6S points and Colfax 81
