To The Grand Jury
Judge Leslie L. Burr's charge to
the grnnd jury, nt the opening of the
term ot court Wednesday morning,
was ns follows:
The law of Hawaii provides for a
Grand Jury and that the Grand Jury,
upon being empanelled and 3worn,
shall be charged by the Court; and
that In bo doing, the Court shall give
them such Information as it may deem
proper as to their duties and as to
the law pertaining to such cases as
may come before them.
The duties devolving upon a Grand
Jury are of supreme importance, and
the oath that you have JiiBt taken ex
presses briefly and fully the duties,
and embodies In its letter and spirit
what is required of you and which
every honest citizen in this communi
ty is justified in expecting at your
hands.
You are now a part of this Court
and your functions are judicial; your
duties being to administer justice ac
cording to the law and the evidence,
free of prejudice, bias, passion or ma
lice. All your acts and proceedings

before you for investigation. You
will not, however, generally examine
witnesses for the defense as by so
doing you will virtually constitute

of some penal offense of which you
are investigating have no right to be
present before you during such in
vestigation, either personally or by an
attorney; neither have you the power
to summon the accused to appear be
fore you.
You have the power to order any
contumacious witness, or any distur

Court to be dealt with as the Court
may deem proper.
Your foreman, or, In his absence,

Wailuku Mission Work
Told Of By The Friend
The current issue of The Friend
carried the following two Items of In
terest concerning school and church
work here:
The Fragrant Orchid Girl's Home in
Wailuku is looking forward to having
some rarely qualified wokers cooperat
ing In its management, Miss Edith N.
Parsons, B. S., of Hartford, Conn.,
who comes to Hawaii for the first
time and Mr. and Mrs. M. Kakehi,
who are already well known here.
Miss Parsons graduated from Sim
mons College, 1913, since which time
she has been teacher of cooking, sew
ing and chemistry first at Howard
Seminary for Girls and afterwards in
the same courses at the Oneida. New
York, High School. She is now com
ing from the Hartford School of Re
ligious Pedagogy. She comes with
excellent recommendations from her
teachers and fellow students.
Mr. Kakehi's excellent service in
these Islands, especially in the Y. M.
C. A., Citizenship Campaign, Is so
well and and widely known that no
special introduction is necessary.
Over strenuous work wore upon his
health; requiring a year of recupera
tion In Japan, from wEich he is now
returning full of new enthusiasm.
The Girls Home was established
seven years ago by Mrs. S. Kanda,
who was engaged in Woman's Work
in the Japanese Department of the
Hawaiian Board. Mr. and Mrs. Kan
da have both put their whole life and
income into the development of this
home, and have had the generous
support and cooperation of American
friends in Maul and other islands.
There are now 63 in the Home.
Rev. L. B. Kaumehelwa has been
called to the pastorate of the Kaahu
manu Church in Wailuku. His excel
lent work among the young people of
this church for the past two years
makes this choice as Its pastor a
suitable recognition of his services.
Big Sport Card Is Planned

tests each night.
Another island championship can
be established in the long distance
runs. There are many marathoners
in Hawaii this year and not all of
the best are on Oahu, as the Hilo
boys demonstrated at the recent Vol
cano race. Competition will be keen
and with the fleetest-footed runners
all in it, a race of this kind will prove
one of the most attractive on the en
tertainment program.
The broad, mile track offers the
heBt course possible for determining
championships in relay events. Since
June is the direst month In the year
for Honolulu, there will be small
danger of "heavy going," and some
new and sensational Island records
can be expected.
The army probably will stage a big
series of Roman races, cavalry drills
and exhibitions, a bridge-building ex
hibition and Wild West show spec
tacles, every one a real thriller.
More definite plans should be
ready for announcement within the
next week or ten days.

Delegate Kuhio's
Prohibition Bill
The prohibition bill of Delegate
Kuhio Kalanianaole, which was in
troduced in Congress on February 18
and referred to the comniiitee on Ter
ritories, was as follows:
Wheeas the "Ahahui Puuhenua o
na Hawaii" (Hawaiian Protective As
sociation) representing the Hawaiian
race, is endevoring in every way to
protect the Hawaiian people from
everything that is disastrous to their
lite and general welfare, thereby con
tinuing the struggle of Hawaii's early
leaders to maintain and to promote
the best traditions and principles of
their forefathers; and
Whereas experience and facts have
shown and proven that alcoholic
drinks are an evil and a menace to
the social, educational, physical, mor
al, ana spiritual welfare of the Ha
waiian as well as of the other races
in the Territory of Hawaii; and
Whereas alcoholic drinks have been
proven to be detrimental nnd perilous
to the mental, moral, and physical
welfare of the fighting men of our
country, thus making the elimination
of the same a proper and effective
war measure at this time when our
country is engaged in the world-wide
war; and
Whereas the war conditions In our
country are demanding with impera
tive force the immediate application
of all effective means for the success
ful carrying out of our country's war
measures; and that, from such a
standpoint, prohibition in Hawaii is
an immediate necessity, a suspension
of precedence in our home-rule prac
tices, is therefore necessary, and that,
while we do believe in and adhere to
the home-rule doctrine, we do recog
nize that the emergency occasioned
by the war must be met now, and in
order to accomplish it, the home-rule
doctrine must be suspended: Now,
therefore
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the Uni
ted States of America in Congress

ed for a period of not longer than one
year, or both: Provided, That at any

in two years after the conclusion of
peace, the repeal of this Act may, up

per centum of the qualified electors
of said Territory at the last preceding

vote of the qualified electors of said
Territory, and If a majority of all the

such question shall vote to repeal
this Act, it shall thereafter not be in
