Dog tight! aroused the Inhabitants of Grove Farm, Pu hi camp last Tuesday night and all apes gathered at the social hall to see what the disturbance was all about. A real dog fight was In prog ress, but the "dogs" were Frank Trlxera and George Wakaneole con testing for the camp championship in a trial of strength to see which could pull the other over a certain line by means of a loop around the necks of the contestants. The hon ors went to Trixera. A cock fight (last censor by Sheriff Rice) over the lino and hot-hand were indulg ed In during the course of the ev ening to tho amusement of nil pres ent. The occasion for all this disturb ance were the preliminaries for the formation of a young men's club. "We want something to do In the evenings," expressed the senti ments of the bunch. The brief dis ci ipt ion given by Secretary Locke of the possibilities of an organized group received the un-.itilmoiifl re sponse that it sounded "jake" and "let's go." The going resulted in Joe Trlxera being made president. The pres ident took the cl.utr and tho oth er officers were elected by Austral ian ballot according to Hoyle and all other parliamentary authorities. George Wakaneole was high man for vice president, Frank Trixera and Louis Galico were the favorites for the position of secretary and treasurer respectively. The officers, with the club leader, U.

MOCK TRIAL AT DORMITORY "Not guilty," was the verdict of the twelve sedate and solemn Jury men, after a long and heated delib eration of two minutes, weighing the case of Francis Chong vs. the World, accused of appropriating co coanut cream pie and disposing of same In the usual way, Witnesses tor the prosecution gave indisputa ble and conclusive evidence that the accused was without question the perpetrator of the heinous crime for which he was before tho bar of Justice. The pale features and ner vous mein of the prisoner were un deniable evidence of guilt and de served punishment. Judge Locke called for the de fense to try If possible to counter balance the overwhelming deroga tory evidence against the prisoner The star witness of the defense was Miss Johnson, matron of th-3 kau kau establishment from whence tho pie disappeared. Miss Johnson's un wers to the searching and wary questions of Attorney. Leong, the prosecuting attorney, brought out the tact that a crime of tho na ture of which the prisoner was ac cused was beyond the realm of possibility. No pie, cocoanut or oth er species, was ever known to sur vive more than one kau-kau peri od in the environs of the said es tablishment from whence the afore said alleged pie had supposedly dis appeared. That there had been eight pies of the character and kind said to have been lifted by the accused, on hand the morning of the day of the day of the afternoon tho accus ed was accused of appropriating same, but an iuterevening kau-kau attacked and anihilated all evidenc es of u pie of any description and that in spite of the finger and foot print marks found on the tin pie tin by Detective Link, alias Tony Ca mara, that said prints could be ac counted for by the fact that the ac cused, in practicing a snowshoe scene from the play tho "Last Ho:-e of Summer," had begun usin tho pie tin in lieu of a snow shoe. In charging tho Jury, the judge was candid in admitting that it was not within his province to in any way prejudice the Jury, but in reviewing the case he wanted to remind them that his personal Investigations of the life and habits of the prisoner had disclosed the startling know ledge that he wus the possessor of one wife, 14 children and a single pair of trousers," that the prisoner was of necessity was forced to re tire to the privacy of his own l.ou doir when said trousers were con signed to tho precincts of the month ly washtub, that these facts coupled with the fact that It was the first time the accused had been caught in the act of committing a crime, that the Jury should give due con sideration to these circumstances in pronouncing their verdict. "Not guilty," was the verdict. DR. MORGAN SPEAKS TO Hl-Y Dr. T. L.

When, we started the S ocean looked very gray, but the color wns always changing, ;ind when we got to Hanalei it was a deep blue. After going miles among the cane fields we began to sea less cane, and more pineapples, then lovely rice fields. We decided to not stop at Hanalei, and drove on to Haena, and stopped at the big Dry Cave. The children enjoyed ex ploring this big cave and as some had brought candles and search lights we went up into all the dark corners. Then we hiked up to the Wet Caves. Ten of tl.e boys had a lovely swim in one of the caves. As we were getting into tho truck someone asked to be taken to the Kilauea light house and we decided it would be a very instructive trip and started for it.

Then we started for Lihue, and even though we were all tired, we felt as if we had had a good time aid a trip well worth while.
