THE MAUI NEWS, SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1914
Henning Has
His Auto Bills
Turned Down
The right of a supervisor to con
tract bills in the capacity of another
county official, was challenged this
week by Auditor Charles Wilcox,
when he refused to issue warrants
against several bills incurred by
Supervisor Henning, while he was
acting as road overseer. There was
quite a lively session of the board
on Monday when the matter came
'up. Wilcox was summoned, but
stood pat, declaring that he had no
authority by law to allow bills con
tracted in such manner. It is pos
sible that tlic matter may be taken
into the courts for decision.
The bills in question aggregate
some Si 70, and represent auto
mobile repairs and supplies. Super
visor Henning stated that the bills
were incurred during the time that
he. was acting as road overseer in
the Haiku-Pauwela district during
the illness of the regular overseer.
He drew no pay, but devoted a
great deal of time to the work with
the view of saving the County the
cost of employing a man; and he
claimed he had saved a great deal
more than the bills in quesiton
amount to. In any event he didn't
propose paying the bills himself,
and would be glad to have the
courts pass on the question.
Auditor Wilcox stated that he
also wishes the matter tested. It is
understood that the Maui Vul
canizing Company, which has a
claim of about 8129, will probably
take legal steps to compel either the
county or Henning to pay up, and
thus the matter is likely to finally
be decided.

Arranged
Special Correspondence.
MAKAWAO, June 17. On Sun
day the 14th, Children's Day at the
Makawao Union Church at Paia was
celebrated most successfully. The
auditorium was crowded with re
latives and friends of the children
who rendered a most delightful
procram ot recitations and music
suitable to the occasion. The most
interesting part of the entertain
ment centered about the reading of
the cradle roll by Martha Aiken
and its decoration with tiny bouquets
of flowers by Beth White.
Rev. Mr. Bowdish stated that
since 1900 onehundred and twenty
six names had been listed on the
cradle roll and that at present there
are nineteen still enrolled. He gave
out diplomas to six graduates who
would hereafter lie members of i
higher class in the Sunday school
. Mauuaolu Seminary girls took a
promiineut part in the day's exer
cises both in music and rhetoricals
and acquitted themselves with
credit. The decorations of the
pulpit were especially beautiful
the color scheme being white and
yellow. The whole front of the
platform was massed with Shasta
daisies, while the choir-rail was
profusely adorned with coreopsis

Arrangmcnts are now being made
to care for the All-Service Team,
which will arrive on Maui on the
morning of July 4th, playing the
first game with an All-Maui Team
in the afternoon. A second game
will be played Sunday July 5th,
and possibly a third game on Mon
day the 6th. It has been suggested
that the Wailuku Team of the local
league play one of the games, in as
much as this team has so farshown
some very good ball in local games
Chilhngworth, who is manager of
the All-Maui Team, has his eye on
an aggregation that will be hard to
beat, and the All-Service Team
will probably have to travel some
to put it over on our local boys.
meeting of the Maui Athletic Asso
ciation will be called for some time
next week, when all of the details
will be finally planned.
Meyer ami Ilal of the wniluku team
have developed into very fast pitchers
and both are suitable for big company,
It is yet uncertain whether the big
game 011 July 4U1 will be played nt Wai
lukii or Kauului. The latter is the better
on account of the enclosure, but it is
questionable whether tlie grounds would
be satisfactory.
