NEY DECLARES
A. G. Kaulukou, in reply to the
question as to whether or not he
intended to run for County At
torney, said:
' Yes, I have decided to
enter the race, and you are at
liberty to say as much. I be
lieve I have an even chance
and win or lose the goal is
worth the trial."
School Children Need Doctors
Fifteen million American school
children need a doctors attention.
This is the estimate furnished the
United States Bureau of K .nr:
tion by Dr. Thomas D. Wood, pro
fessor of physical education in the
Columbia University Teacher's
college.
Of the 20,000,000 school
children in this country, says
Dr, Wood, 'not less than 75 per
cent need attention tor physical
defects which are prejudicial to
health and which are partially or
completely remedial."
Some of the doctor s conclusions
are as toiiows:
Several million children have two
or more handicapping defects; 400
000 have organic heart disease; at
least 1,000,000 have or have had
tuberculosis; about 1 ,000,000 have
spinal curvature, flat foot or some
other moderate deformity; more
than 1,000,000 have defective hear
ing; about 5,000,000 have defec
tive vision; about5,000,000 are
suffering from malnutrition; 6,000-
000 or 7,000,000 have enlarged
tonsils, adenoids or enlarged cer
vical glands; more than 10,000,000
have defective teeth which are in
terfering with health; about 100
cities have as many different kinds
of organizations for the care of
health in the schools. ,
How To Knock Your Town
Buy from peddlers as much and
as often as possible.
Denounce your merchant because
he make a profit on his goods.
Glory in the downfall of a man
who had done much to build up
your town, make your town out a
bad place and stab it every chance
you get, refuse to unite in any
scheme for the betterment of the
material interest of the people. If
a stranger comes to town tell him
everything is overdone and pre
dict a crash in the near future.
Tell vour merchants that you can
by goods a great deal cheaper in
some other town and charge them
with extortion. Patronize outside
newspapers to the exclusion of
your own and then denounce yours
for not being as large and as cheap
as the city paper. If you are a
merchant don't advertise in the
home paper, but compel the Editor
to go elsewhere for advertising and
howl because he did so.

blaze which might sniff out their

schedule as to allow for ideal

ably be played next Sunday.
The Lihue Juniors are putting

dable attention. V isitors who re
turned from the big game at Mc
Bryde last Minuay, in time to see
a part of the last game, were as
tonished to see such excellent
work by the amateure teams.
The Mokihanas defeated the L.
J.C. team in an exciting game
with a score of 10-9.
The J. A. C.'s vs. the Rizals,
another two of the Junior League
teams, gave an interesting exhi
bition of the game., ending with :
score of 12 to 10 in favor of the
J. A. C. aggregation. Interest in
the Junior Leagues of the island is
on the increase and there is some
likelihood of arranging transpor

An auto accident which result

and the arrest of the driver, oc
curred in Hanapepe last Saturday.
A Japanese named Narusi was
passing through town and by a
very small margin, missed strik
ing a Japanese child who had
wondered into the road, the mother
of whom, being frightened, scream
ed. The father, evidently not wait
ing to see why, rushed into the
street and in front of the auto
mobile. He was knocked down
and at first thought to be fatally
injured, but on closer examination,
found to have only received a
compound fracture o f the leg,
which while very painful, is not
necessarily fatal. The driver who
was arrested has since been releas
ed on his own recognizance.

Aug. 19, 1912.
Dear Editor:
Am very sorry to think that
there is such a man on the world
who hold Bible in his left hand and
conducts the way of controdiction
with his right hand.
It is not vanished away from our
eyes yet that Mr. Blank advertised
in your paper for his lost book
offering Five Dollars for the re
ward. God took pity on him, and re
turned his lost book back to his
hand again through a Japanese.
Now, Dear Editor, do you sup
pose Mr. Blank gave to the
Japanese $5 the promised reward?
Poh! Just imagine, this Hon.
Reverend cut his promised reward
down into half and gave the
Japanese $2.50.
Alas! This pious gentle man of
haole. did gain $2.50 in this smart
wav cheating God and men. Is
this the way who obey the will of
God?
I made a ' Bill" for him to be
paid back the sum of money.
The articles are as follows:
1. Confidence of your paper ad
vertisenient.
The conduct destroyed the con
fidence of your paper advertise
meut. $. 50
2. Fame of haoles.
He spoiled the Fame of
Haoles" 50
3. Christianity.
This deed made people begin to
doubt '"Christianity." 50
4. The other men's benefit.
If some body lost something
afterward nobody return it back to
the former owner willingly lest he
lose his half reward in this way. 50
5. His name's sake.
If he do not pay the other half
of the promised reward. 50
$2.50
The above described articles are
very cheap, I dare say Dear Editor,
give him strong suggestion to make
him pay it.
I report you for moral, social
and God's sake. I watch out.
Yours truly,
Hypocrite
Editor's note:
The writer of the above is mis
taken in so far as such an ad ever
appearing in this paper. The de
fence in regard to the reputation ot
the paper, of course, while in this
case, unnecessary, is nevertheless
appreciated.

DIES IN THE

LIIIUL
.
PITAL AT 9
Anton Boireto a cowboy for the
Lihue Plantation Company for the
past ten years died at the Lihue
hospital this morning a s the re
sult of an accident which occurred
yesterday morning near the Lihue
Mill. He had roped a cow
which in some unknown manntr,
got the rope wound round his
horse in such a way as to throw it.
Borreto fell beneath 1iis horse from
where he was removed in an un
conscious state Irom which he
never rallied.
Mr. Borreto leaves a widow,
parents and a number of brothers
nd sisters to mourn his untimely
death, one of vhom a sister is
present in the hospital and
whose life is diepaired of owing to
the shock caused by her brother's
death.
Later, 2 p. m:
News reached this office as we
go to press, that Mr. Borreto still
lives though very low.
Concrete Posts For County
The county is evidently experi
menting with concrete line posts
as a number of such posts appear
along the roadside at a point be
tween here and Koloa.
Can concrete line fence posts be
made to take the place of wood
posts? If they can, there will be
a great saving of ouf forests; and
it will be much .more economical
for the consumer. Their use will
also modify to some extent the
management of the woodlot and
the abandonment of the planting
of iron wood and eucalyptus etc.,
post purposes.
The Garden Island is gather
ng information on their use in
Kauai. We desire to learn to what
extent they are used and with
what success. We will greatly ap
preciate the favor of a report from
those who read this article and
have had experience with concrete
line posts. Write to us, stating
how many posts vou have and how
long they have been set; whether
you bought ready made posts or if
you made them yourself; if pur
chased, at what price; give size,
how reinforced, and any other in-,
formation you deem of importance.
Concrete line fence posts are
already used in many parts of the
states and it is confidently believed
that their use will be general. It
was only a few years ago that con
crete sidewalks were considered a
failure, and we shall not be sur
prised if it will take sometime to
learn how to make a durable fence
post. It is an important thing to
perfect a concrete post, when it is
considered that there are at least a
million fence posts used each year
in this Territory.

Thieves Busy In Nawiliwili
A sneak-thief paid his respects
to several Nawiliwili residents last
Thursday night getting a watch
from Tanaka, $50.00 from Takota
and an unknown quantity of more
or less valuables from Kikushigi.
No clue has as yet been discovered
which might lead to the discovery
of the thieves. The work is simi
liar to that recently done at Ka
paia and it is generally supposed
that the deed was done by the
same gang.
A Cold Storage For lihue
The cold storage plant which is
contemplated by the Lihue Plant
ation will fill a long felt want.
With this plant in operation it
will be possible to obtain Austra
lian beef and mutton, great, juicy
two-by-four mainland steaks and
real cream from Honolulu. The
Lihue Plantation, in establishing
such a plant, is also establishing
a precedent i n progressiveness
which might well be followed by
other public spirited citizens of
local fame.
