Gov. Frear may not know a
dog-goned thing about land laws,
but when it comes to appointing
Territorial officials he delivers the
goods as is indicated by the ap
pointment of Wallace Farrington as
Commissioner of Education to fill
the unexpired term of Judge
Stanley, resigned". Farrington is
thoroughly conversant with edu
cational a f f a i r s in all their ec
centricities and his appointment as
a commissioner of education places
a mighty good man in a most im
portant position.
The reappointment of Governor
Frear would indicate that official
Washington is satisfied with the
manner in which the Territorial ex
ecutive has administered the affairs
of the Territory. Aside from the
sorry land laws for which he is said
to be chiefly, responsible and the
charges that he is too closely allied
with the corporation interests,
Governor Frear has conducted
the affairs of the government in a
highly satisfactory manner. He is
one of the most capable men in the
Territory and Taft evidently could
not have done better than to have
selected him.
An ingenious investigator has
been looking into the cost of books
by the word, which is a sensible
point of view. A really small book
may be very heavy, or very big
and so may seem to be worth a
considerable price, thereby deceiv
ing the unwary reader. The said
ingenious investigator finds that
fiction is the cheapest of all book
fodder on the market viz: 12 cents
per thousand words. Religion runs
to 26 cents in spite of the tracts
that are given away. Travel, is 3
cents largely on account of illus
tration. Poetry is the most expen
sive, ranging from 4 to 15 cents, a
figure which is seldom justified by
the quality.
Some of the weekly Journals
sell words hot off the griddle at
12 mills per thousand and a mill
is only one tenth of a cent.

Public Schools
To Fittingly Ob
serve Arbor Day
To the Teacher and Pupils,
Public Schools of Hawaii.
As the tree planting season is
approaching, this Department
wishes to call to the attention of
teachers and pupils the importance
of tree planting on school grounds.
Not only are well developed trees
great benefit for shade and orna
mental purposes, but their plant-
ng and culture affords one of the
best opportunities for lessons on
the care and development of
plants. It is hoped that you will
bear in mind that it is far better to
plant but a very few trees and
take proper care of them than it is
to make a display of planting
many trees and then become care-
ess and neglect them.
The Department of Agriculture
and Forestry will furnish the trees
free of charge and the Department
of Public Instruction will pay
reight charges. It is hoped that
the teachers and pupils will take
interest in Arbor Day planting
and that they will order, plant and
care for such trees as will be best
suited for their school premises.
Principals of schools on Hawaii
in the Puna District and from
Olaa to Laupahoehoe should apply
directly to Brother Matthias Ne
well, Hilo, Hawaii, for their trees.
Those o n the leward side of
Kauai, from Manato Koloa, should
apply to Mr. Walter McBryde,
Homestead, Kauai, and applica
tions from all ether schools should
be addressed to Division of For
estry. Board of Agriculture and
Forestry, Box 331, Honolulu, T. II.
The Governor has proclaimed
Friday, November 8th, as Arbor
Day and we trust that all schools
will observe the day appropriately.
Enclosed herewith is a circular
prepared by the Division of For
estry of this Territory, which we
trust you will read and follow
carefully in your tree planting
work. The list of trees that can
be furnished by the Division of
Forestry, from which you may
select in ordering, is to be found
on pages 2 and 3 of the circular.
Very truly yours,
Wilms T. Pope

struction.

A Teacher's Resolutions
I will try to keep throughout
the year the enthusiasm I start
with.
I will try to develop character
and strength of personality in my
pupils as much by my life as by
my words.
I will dress tastily, neatly and
moderately every day I teach
school, but I will not be a fop and
will not dress beyond my income.
I will prepare my work and will
try t o know my subject before
teaching it.
I will not work "by the clock,"
but will be willing to stay over
time when necessary, or to do ex
tra work in my room.
I will do my best to look at my
pupils from a parent's standpoint,
as nearly as I can.
I will try to guide the children's
activity in the right direction,
rather than stifle any of it.
I will not dance, go to card
parties, blowouts, church bazars
or any other place, during the
week, that demands late hours,
thus making my temper like a
buzz-saw the next day and my
eyes like a new moon.
I will not if a woman, wear the
same faded waist more than two
weeks in succession; if a man, I
will have my shoes polished at
least three times a year, and four
if needed.
I will not lose my temper when
reproving a pupil.
I will ". a good mixer" with
the pupils.
I will try to get acquainted.
I will take exercise.
I will breathe deep.
I will work hard.
I will read.
