Between the fourth and fifth
scenes and after the program was
over, Miss Dorothy Koolau, a nat

Having met her several times be-

The centerpiece on the stage
was a huge fashion magazine with
the cover open, from which the
models stepped, their figures
clearly silhOuetted against the
background of a New York sky
line. After all the scenes were
over, the models paraded through
the aisles on all the floors to give
the interested audience chance

Between the scenes, talented anc
diversified entertainment was pro-
vided first of all by Armand Mauss
son of President Vinal G.. Mauss Of
the Church. He captivated the girls
with his mellow singing of two
songs.
Between Scenes II and III, ten

with his maSterful playing of the
violin. Not a sound could be heard
outside the delicate tones emana-

While seeking to bring up the
bill for consideration out of order
Rep. Walter said of The bill;
THE purpose Is to remove
racial restrictions in the nlturali-
zation of aliens who have a legal
right to remain in the United State
but cannot become citizens because
of racial exclusion. This is the same
bill that was passed by the HOUSE
on two occasions. and subsequently
passed over the veto of the Presi-
dent.
THE Objectionable part of the
bill has been removed because the
restriction features that were in
the bill as passed by the House have
been included in the McCarran Law

vides for the complete repeal of the
Oriental Exclusion Act of 1924 b.
restoring the right of immigration
to all Asian nations, though such
immigration would be on a token
basis only)
The committee said that since
the enactment of the Nationality
Act of 1910, Congress has "on three
occasions extended further the pli-
vilege of naturalization to previous
racial ineligibles.
"The first amendment on Dec.
II, 1913, related to the Chinese;
the FilipinOs and persons of races
indigenous to India were covered
by the act of July 2, 1916, and on
August |, 1850, Guamanian aliens
were made eligible for citizenship.
g. The number of persons
who would benefit by (the Walter
bill is not large. According to
the Census of 1910 there were
84,658 aliens of Japanese descent,
3.139 of Korean descent and las
who were listed as POlynesians
and other Asians'."
The House committee quoted
the Presidents veto message in part
which said.
II urge that the Congress re-
consider this resolution at once,
reenacting ii in such form as to
preserve removal of racial re-
Strictions) and remove those pro-
visions which seek to streng-

but which actually weaken and
confuse it. AT time when the
United Nations forces are fight
ing CALAMITY TO uphold the prin-

dietary committee who. after re-

Why Grow Old?
1850 Marathon Beqins
By Josephine Lowmon

First experiences always carry
a tremendous impact, whether
they are happy or unhappy. No
pair of high heels is quite so Won
derful as the first pair you had
at the age Of Is or 16.
Your first date almost threw
you into a state of mild shock.
The first time you were kissed,
the first time you fell in love, the
first. cake you baked, the first
speech you made. the first time
you went on roller coaster-all
of these carried the. great punch
of new experience!
This works in reverse, too. Do
you remember how you felt when
you discovered your first gray
hair. when you first noticed that
little bulge at the thigh line. when.
for the first time. you had roll
over the girdle, when you heard
your first creaking joint. when
your tummy suddenly appeared to
have pad of fat? You thought,
Il will certainly do something
about this" Did you?
Did you also suddenly realize
that you. who had been a gay
person. seemed to laugh less? Did
Evening star., 1950-01-08

you realize that you had stopped
doing many of the things you al
ways liked to do? Did you say to
yourself, What has happened to
me? What has happened to my
plans and dreams? Why does life
seem dull rather than like 1
always thought it would be?" I'll
bet you did sometime!
Repetition has a way of dulling
our sensibilities. Both the eye and
the heart can become accustomed
to what we see or to what we
feel. For instance, we became &C.
customed to the new look. -
When every one was wearing short
skirts, long skirts looked funny.
When every one wore long skirts,
short ones looked queer. We also
take. many OF, life's greatest salts
factions for granted after awhile.
After you looked at that bulge
or roll for a year or 50 it did not
look nearly so bad as when you
first discovered it. You thought.
We'll, after all, for my age, my
figure is pretty good"
Pounds and life may have piled
up on you until. somehow, in the
scuf11e. you lost your most attrac-
tive self and the gay adventurous
living you had planned. You
found yourself a bit fat, a bit dull,
a bit tense and hectic, and quite
sunk in a rut which you could not
believe you had dug for yourself.
If we could just keep the fresh
viewpoint which makes life a con-
tinuous adventure, where new
horizons are constantly opening
up.swhere there is always time for
laughter, where we are not will
ing to settle for less than our
most attractive self and spiritual
and mental happiness, we would
be more vibrant.
Life is the same. Only you have
changed, only your viewpoint is
different! The woman who finds
life eternally exciting will remain
eternally youthful.
II you would like to join my
Eight Week Self Improvement
Marathon to remedy some of the
defects, send a stamped, self-ad-
dressed envelope with your request

PROGRESS IN III WORK
IT IS GooD 10 SEE that the 4-H !

IT is GOOD TO SEE that the All work here has pro-
crossed to the point where it can be dealt with on an island
wide basis. Few other programs for the training of rural youth
have proved more advantageous and productive of good. The
All work on the mainland is one of the principal ways Of
matchmaking school youth into the scientific ways of farm
ing and rural life, and helping to place that life on a perma-
nent progressive basis.
Q The PAST fifty years the rural life of this place
has been going down. From large estates with villages the
pattern has been changing the idea being to create small, self
supporting farms where a man and his family can live fairly
comfortably, meeting his obligations and contributing to the
general welfare. But this has not moved at the pace expected,
and the casual observer can note with diSmay that fact that
there is being surrendered the very heart of our rural life.
The greatest asset of any nation is its youth, and these are
noticably lacking in our rural life. If we are to have a pro-
ductive rural economy, then there must be development of
farms, more farm families, and young men who take over to
carry on where the elders left off. But here is the trouble. To
get these young people to carry on, there must be instiled in
them a respect for rural life, and a realization that it is not
only one Of the largest means Of livelihood throughout the
world, but an honorable and productive one.
THE WORK OF H Al clubs throughout the Islands
can help to give its members a fondness for this type of life,
and to know that right at their hands is a source which may
ing, and more members being drawn in, this Island may
look optimisticaly to the future, for within the next decade
there might be developed a rural citizen who is self-respect-
ing, energetic, and an asset to the Island Of which he is part.
EVERY COOPERATION should be given this project.
Its progress will be watched with keen ihterest.
