THE COMING VISIT

OF THE GOVERNOR

Governor Pinkhatn will come toKauai between the 1st. and 10th.of April to make further investi-

gations into the matter of railroadfacilities for the homesteaders .in

the Waipouli section. He will be

accompanied bv B. G. Rivenburgh,the new land commissioner, and

James Dougherty, a member of

his military staff. SuperintendentForbes and perhaps others may be

in the party.In speakhiR of the matter at

Honolulu Governor Pinkham gnve

the impression that he was in favorof immediate action of some sort

in this railway matter, but wished

to feel that all persons having, orfeeling, an interest in the propo-

sition should be as nearly satisfiedas possible. While here t h e

Governor will probably encourage

a mass meeting, at which all wishing to be heard may have an op-

portunity to speak. How long

the Governor and party will re-

main here is not yet known de-

finitely, but the presumption is

that it will merely be betweenWednesdayand Saturday.

STEAMERS TO BE

CHANGED AROUND

The proposal has been semi-

officially advanced from Honoluluto take the Kinatt off the Lihuc-Waime- a

end of her present routeand to put her on the old W. G.Hall's route, making two trips aweek to Nawiliwili and Ahukini,from Honolulu. .The steamerMaui, which recently took theW. G. Hall's route, would, underthis arrangement, be transferredto that part of the route betweenNawiliwili and Waimea, takingthe present run of the Kinati.

The argument advanced in favorof this scheme is that it wouldmake of the Kinau a twice-a-wee- k

boat in place of a weekly as atpresent (just what the captain andpurser of the Kinau will do aboutit. however, has not vet beenlearned). Moreover, it would givethe larger boat to the larger freightend of the island the Lihue side.A third argument advanced is thatmost passengers leave from Nawi-liwili anyhow.

Just what the people of theWaimea end of the island will savto all this has not yet developed.It is hardly likely that they willrelish the idea of apparently goingbackward in place of forward inthe matter of steamer accommoda-tions, and a great big kink mavreasonably be expected.

It is understood that the pro-

posal, has been sent over for tireo. k. of certain patties which, ifobtained, will set the new systemgoing,

LADIES PLAY FOR

CHAMPIONSHIP

The final match in the ladies'Kauai championshfp games wasplayed off last Saturday in Lihue,proving to be of thrilling interestand affording many opportunitiesto bring out the strong points ofeach player,

Miss Silburn Purvis and MissMelicent Waterhouse won the sec-

ond and third sets from Mrs. W.K. Schultze and Miss Banham.

The first set was an easy victoryfor the visitors who got it witha score of 6-- the home team

taking the opportuity towarm up.

In the second set however, play-in- g

was very close, practicallyeach player getting her serveuntil the score stood at five all.Some very fine back-han- d returnson the part of Mrs. Schultze wereresponsible for a number of pointsin favor of her side, while towardthe end close net playing by MissWaterhouse drew the score to 7 5in favor of her side.

The third set proved to be al-

most the reverse of the first, MissWaterhouse and Miss Purvis tak-ing six games straight with onlythe third a protracted deuce game.

The final score stood in favorof the home team 6, 7-- 5, 6 0. Inconnection with the championshipa pair of rackets offered by Mrs.Hans Isenberg, are to be present-ed to the winners.

TODAY'S AND

Sugar, 5.71.Honolulu The College of Hawaii is criticized for its farming

course. Jared G. Smith, professor of agronomy, leaves the faculty atthe request of officials. The retiring educator says that the policywith reference to agriculture is not productive.

Advices from Washington say that Hawaiian affairs are receivingthe attention of Congressmen. The military highway for Oahu, forinstance, has been taken seriously into conference.

George R. Carter boosts Roosevelt.Francis M. Hatch will succeed R.W. Shingle, as city surpervisor,

the well known citizen and lawyer having accepted the invitation ofthe mayor to join the Board,

He has wide experience in Hawaiian affairs. Selection meetswitn general approval and Mayor Lane is highly gratified.

The Fight For Sugar

Washington The Democratic caucus of the Senate votes to ex-

tend the time for taking the tariff off sugar to May 1, 1920, and thecommittee will so report. This substitute for the House measurewas adopted by upper libuse Bourbons bv a vote of 23 to 7 after dis-cussion in conference. The opposition consists of numerous factions.Senators from Louisiana are strongly against the bill, holding that itwould leave growers without assurance as to the future.

The new immigration measure is declared to be an insult to Ja-pan. New York Representative argues for the elimination of the anti-Asiat- ic

clause. He says that the Japanese are keeping to the agree-ment loyally and showing every disposition to avoid possible pointsof friction.

Up To Congress

Wilson asks Congress to act upon the submarine tangle at once.It is reported that the President intends to shift the entire responsi-bility for the submarine situation upon Congress.

Submarine Situation Tense

The submarine situation is growing even more tense, and the re-

lations of the United States and Germany more grave. The Englisk-ma- n

and Sussex incidents both in flagrant defiance ot American rights,have served to intensify feeling and complicate matters.

Each day is adding more victims to the list made by undersearaiders. ,

THE NEXT PICTURE

VOIC E OF THE FOG"

Willie Fernandez has anothergreat picture coming. It is en-

titled "The Voice of the Fog",and will be started at Makaweli onthe evening of the 29th. The fullschedule for this picture appearson page 2 of this issue. Followingis an interesting press comment on"The Voice of tlie Fog."

"The Voice of the Fog," inwhich Donald Brian makes his debut as a paramount star in a production of the Jesse L. Lanky Fea-

ture Play Company, is a picturiza-Uo- n

of Harold Mac Grath's widelyread novel of the same name, whichis considered one of the masterpieces of modern day fiction ofsuspense and mystery.

cellent .opportunity of which hetakes full advantage. Webb is ayoung Englishman who inherits atitle and small fortune, but whoforfeits the use of his title forthree months to a professionalconfidence man who involvesyoungWebb in countless difficulties. Thestory is carried across the oceanto the United States, where Webbfinds employment as private secre-tary to a young woman who recog-nizes his voice as the voice sheheard one night in London at themoment a mysterious hand fromout of the fog reached into hercab and stole her necklace.

New Hotel Talk

Although plans and discussionare vet of a very tentative charac-ter, it is possible that Waimeamay, at no distant date, have afine, new hotel. It appears thatthe land included in a part of thepresent hotel premises is muchneeded by Hofgaard & Co. fori heir lumber business, and may betaken over at any time. A proposalhas, therefore, been evolved toerect a new and more commodioushotel on a lot belonging to Mr.Brandt near the beach below thebank. As stated above, however,the matter is still in an unsettledstate and for the present nothingof a positive nature tan be Rivenout.

(Special Washington correspondence of "CHEGARDEN ISLAND.)

Washington, D. C. March 9th:Senator Chamberlain of Oregon,

today offered amendments to theRivers and Harbors bill providingfor an appropriation of $200,000,for the improvement of the "re-served channel" to the extent ofproviding a channel 800 feet wide,and 35 feet deep at mean low water and extending 1000 feet fromHonolulu Harbor along the re-

served channel towards KapalamaBism; $200,000 for constructinga breakwater at Nawiliwili Harborin accordance with the repoit ofthe War Department published inthe 62nd Congress, and permitting

- . .ine secretary to enter into con-

tracts to prosecute the work onthis project to an amount not toexceed $886,000. exclusive of the$200,000. proposed by the amendmerit; $100,000 for constructingthe West breakwater at KahuluHarbor, and authorizing theSecretary of War to prosecute thework to an amount of $150,000exclusive of the $100,000 proposedby the amendment.

it tne senate Committee onCommerce, to whom these amendments art reterred, should openup the Rivers and Harbors bill fornew projects, it is possible thatone if not all of the Hawaiian projects will be included in the bill

INTERVIEW WITH

Dec. 6,

The following interview withthe late VV. E. Rowell, who diedrecently in Honolulu, was read atthe meeting of the Kauai Histori-cal Society last week by J. M.Lydtfate:

I was born at Hanalei in 1845,Mv father followed Alexanderthere for a couple of years. WhenI was about one year old we

moved to Waimea, We came by

canoe I believe, bag and baggage.No I don't remember anything

it. Mr, Gulick I understandhad built the house at Waimea. Mr.Whitney had died I think just be-

fore our arrival or soon after, so

that the whole work and responsi-

bility of the station fell on my

father. Tke Whitney house stoodjust about where the Hofgaard

house is now, while ours stood

near by. No, no, the Whitneyhouse wasn't built of adobie, butof stone coral sand stone. I re

member very distinctly how itcracked because of imperftct foun-

dations and the walls bulged out

and had to be shoved up withheavy timber props.. The house

was demolished finally for thestone which was taken to build

the Kekaha chimney. I think theypaid $100 for it. Mother Whit-

ney lived there for a good many

yeais. In the division of the mis-

sion sands there was some diff-

iculty about coming to an amicabledecision, for, you know, these

old missionaries were quite humanin spite of the fact that they were

missionaries. Mrs. Whitney want-

ed about everything that was any

good.We got a piece of pasture land

on the east of the river calledMahai-liai- ; it was there we kept

our stock, and in dry times they

fairly grubbed up the roots of themanienie.

We had an old man who took

the stock back and forth; he took

them to the river and they swarmacross-an- d when he wanted them

he called them and they came across

the river.WVin Mts. Whitnev died she

left her land to the native church.Tb minister was to live at theWhitney place, but that was inrnnvcnipnt so an exchange was

made for a kuleana in the valley,

and I bought the balance of theland for $1800. That is the basis

of the church fund to this day.There was a grass church in

those days down on the beach west

of the river, where afterwards the

school house stood and about where

the Chinese church is now. Therewere two services on Sunday and

a prayer meeting Wednesday af

ternoon. No, the crowds were

not very large and the church was

not as big as the stone church

built later. The church was builtof pih grass, closed in, as I re

member it, on the mauka andwindward side, but open makai on

the lee side. There were no windows, at least no glazed windows.The neoDle sat on mats on thefloor. The matter of windows, re

minds me that I made quite a littlemoney in my boyhood days, making window and door cases forHawaiian grass houses. Yes, alltl,e houses at that time were of

grass.The one exception in mv early

boyhood was that of Kauai, theinral chief or konohike; his wasprobably the first wooden house

Yes.Kaikioewa's house was justmauka of the Hospital on the edge

of the pali. I think it still standsdoesn't it? No, I didnt know Kai

kioewa: he was gone before my

time. Debora Kapule was governess. She was a big woman, over

6 feet. Yes, her grave is thereThe "pa ilina o na alu" was justa little west of the road runningmakai from our house to the Alaina to Kekaha. It was fenced off

with a substantial cut sandstone

wall. It was about an acre in extent, and when that tract was conveved to me. this pa lima was re

served and it ought to be there yet

It was all kula, open country,from our house down to the sea,with no cultivation and no trees,but with an adobe wall, fencing ina mission tract. Just west a littleway there was a neke pond, wherewere ducks.

I think it is all dried up nowand planted to cane. No therewas no irrigation, and we had todepend on the river for our drink-ing water.A man bought two buck-ets a day; its quite a distance youknow, and we took mighty goodcare of that water. No, no, wenever dteamed that there was anyquestion about it being sanitarv orwholesome it was mountain wa-

ter, no matter if it did flow througha thickly inhabited region For allother purposes we used well water.My father sank a well near thehouse. He had to go down 26 ft.and the water was brackish, but itwas allright for cooking, etc.

Strange to sav farther makai thewater was fresher. Later I builtthe windmill which still standsdirectly over the well. My fatherhad an ingenious balance for draw-

ing the water. The Whitney's hada similar well.

My father had a garden, up thevalley, where he worked a greatdeal himself .He was a good garden-

er. He raised the first mango treein Waimea. Wehadloquats, orang-

es, bananas, vis and peaches fromthis garden, the latter by the buck-

et. Tue name of the garden wasKakalae.

We 'lived mestly on taro andsweet potatoes, which we got large-ly from the natives by way of payment for their books.

No, we didn't have rice much,only as a luxury, from abroad.No rice was grown here in thosedays. Yes we had plenty of milk.We had twenty cows. I remem-

ber I had to milk them beforebreakfast and I have known howto milk ever (since. Yes we hadbutter. Good butter in spite ofthe climate and no ice. My fatherfixed up a sort of refrigerator openwindow, and my mother made finebutter without boiling the milkHer daughters could never makeany so good. On Niihau they madebutter too, but they boiled themilk. It wasn't so good. We usedto get flour from Boston, and itwas so hard we had to dig it out,like cement. I remember that wasone of my jobs. But it made goodbread. Later we got Island grownMakawao flour it was very different it was sticky,

Once a year we killed beef anddistributed round to our neighborswhat we couldn't salt, dry orotherwise keep. Occasionally we

had pork. We also had chickensand turkeys, The latter did wellwe had quite a flock of white turkeys.

Yes we had a stove, but therewas an old fashioned fire-plac- e inthe house with a crane, and alsoa brick oven, but I think we neverused it much, it took too muchwood. Our wood came from themountains.With bullocks we hauled down great logs once inwhile. We had the old fashionedwhate oil lamps, mighty poorlights, mostly grease and smell

As to recreation, I don't remember that it cut much figure. We

had horses of course and all rodelike Jehus. To go up to the garden up the valley, was a voyageof discoveiv, and a red letter dayof excursion. Every night for a

long time went down to the seawith father for a bath and it wasthen I learned to swim.

We were not allowed to playwith the Hawaiian children norsneak the language; that was tabuloa. Latei when we went to Ko-lo- a

to school we had a good timethere with other children. Westarted out Monday morning earlyon horseback and came home every

second week. Yes, Dole was agood teacher and though the class-

es were small we were some of usquite well advanced. I was in a

class with Sanford and George(Continued on page 6.)

MARCH 2S

The Waipouli Situation

The Governor is coming to Kauai and, as we understand it, withthe intention of settling definitely, one way or the other, the questionof railway facilities for the homesteaders in the Waipouli and Kapaasettlement regions.

This Waipouli question (always beset with difficulties and moteor less of a conundrum) has not been iniptoyed any by the delays towhich it has been subjected; and the Governor, or anyone else tryingit, will find his. (.or their) hands full in any effort that may now bemade toward a settlement satisfactory to all interests involved. Aswe understand the facts, the Lihue Plantation Company, which ad-

vanced the original proposition to supply railroad facilities to thehomesteaders of most of the region in question, has been practicallyeliminated from calculations, perforce of the delay in negotiatingsatisfactory terms for putting in their railroad, it being now too lateto build a railroad from the Lihue side inta the district for handlingthe first croo of eane, or. perhaps, two crops of cane. However, eventhis might be affected favorally by such proposals as the Governormay have to put forward when he arrives here.

Public interest in this whole matter has been confined (and isstill centered in, be it said and emphasized) to the success of home-steadin- g

in the Kapaa-Waipou- li region. A success had seen madeof homesteading at Kalaheo, on this island. There conditions wereslightly different, the laws were not exactly the same and the home-steaders were favored with most, at least, of the facilities which theyrequired and had a right to expect. The Waipouli project was setafloat under average conditions of homesteading schemes in otherpart3 of the Islands. The land was all right, but facilities were lack-ing. The general public has been behind what has seemed an inter-minable fight for these facilities-- a fight embarrassed to a greater orless extent by a conflict of interests between large industrial enter-prises which touched the quick of the homesteading proposition at bothsides.

Something should and must be done to save the day for thehomesteaders. If not so, homesteading will be given the

blackest eye it has even had in this Territory, and undeservedly so.The unfortunate condition of affairs at Waipouli-Kapa- a empha-

sizes a point we have steadfastly maintained in connection with anyhomesteading plan the government may undertake in this Territory.To send people out into barren wastes, without water, roads or ship-ping facilities and expect them to make a success of homesteading isthe poorest species of business imaginable. When a real estate con-cern plans the settlement of a gh'en locality, roads are established,water is provided and even railroads are built for the transportationof produce and passengers. When all this is done, people are invitedto come, select holdings and begin the work of industrial development.

The government must come to the same thing. Had the govern-ment years ago proceeded upon some such plan the homesteadingfailures of Hawaii and near failures of Maui and Oahu would neverhave been and we would not have this Waipouli problem on ourhands today. A plan of this sort would have to be worked out systematically. The legislature would have to be called upon for considerable sums of money. These outlays would all be charged against theproperties, however, and would be returned to the government iu theshape of increased revenues from the sale of the land to the homesteaders.

What is now to be done for Waipouli we confess we are unableto say. A year of delay has meant a great deal-t- o say nothing of thefailure to start right in the first place. The absolute sincerity of theLihue Plantation Company in its efforts to relieve the situation hasnot, to our knowledge, been questioned by unbiased authority on thisisland. The plans of the rival interests conspicuously mentioned inconnection with the matter have neven been so generally and clearlyunderstood. Almost the entire blame tor the deplorable situation,however, is to be laid at the door of our homesteading system, as indicated by our laws; the backing and filling of governments, all theway back to Governor Dole, on settlement propositions, and the jackass administration of our homesteading laws by the land departmentsince annexation.

The New Armory

It has been fovind that the money available for the big armory inLihue will not be quite sufficient to erect and equip a structure of thesize and character so much desired. The hope all along has beenthat this Lihue armory would not only be an imposing structure andadequate for all military puiposes, but might fill a real communityneed in anoraing a nan oi surncient size to-- accommodate large conventions or ether public gatherings. It would be a great pity shouldwe come so very near that point and yet fail of its realization for wantof a little more money.

The people who came forward at the first call have done wellreally more than their share, perhaps; and it would not be fair for thecommunity to lean upon them farther. Nor can Colonel Broadbent.who has done so much, be expected to go around with his hat in handfor money with which to piece out the amount needed for this publicenterprise. It is to be hoped that those in position to do so, and whofetl a proper interest in the matter (and we assume everybody does),will stand ready to make up the amount required when the exactfigures are known.

The plans for the armory will arrive tomorrow from Honolulu.It is undetstood that they will show the structure as it should be, andalso a scheme modified here and there to fit the amount of money ac-tually available. Unquestionably the full, complete plans should beadopted, and the additional money, whatever it may be, raised.

Let us do the job right. Let us have an armory that will be acredit to Lihue and to Kauai, and a great convenience to the public.

Naval Lobbyists At Washington

There is sunn-thin- extraordinary about these stories naval officerstire just no telling Congress concerning the ships of our fleets. Ifthese statements are to be believed, all of our naval vessels should bebroken up before they drown a lot of our sailors and waste perfectlygood ammunition on the ocean floor. To hear these officers talk onewould suppose that there isn't a ship in the American navv but couldbe knocked to smithereens by an armed sampan, and the great won-der is that they stay on top of the water at all.

Now, then: Something is vety rotten, or somebody is doing somevery tall lyini. Inasmuch as for a hundred years naval officers havewith frequent regularity gone before Congress with almost identicallythe same tale of woe the same story of intolerable conditions in thenavv; and on top of which the American navy has made good inevery emergency, it would appear that the officers of the navy have,apparantly by common consent, again entered upon a campaign ofdeception in order to obtain the appropriations which they desire orquite possibly, require.

The spectacle of a lobby full of officers, at Washington, waitingto vie with one another in Congressional committee in what seems tobe a competition to see which can tell the most extraordinary yarn toillustrate the utter unfitness of the navy, does not impress us at all.We would recommend that the various admirals, commodores, etc.,in the lobby at Washington he k'iven the command "right about" and"forward, march" back to their ships, qnd that a survev of thefleets be made by competent, private engineers, under the direction ofthe navy department, to determine the fitness or needs of the ships.

THE GARDEN ISLAND. TUESDAY, MARCH 28, 1916.

The American people want a powerful navy and that 5t be kept up todme: but we are getting jolly well soused with the plaints and im-

practicable ideas that are coming from naval sources iu this regard.

Roosevelt And The Primaries

tn staying out of the primaries, former President Roosevelt is. toour mind, playing a deeper game than he has been given credit for.Some of his more ardent supporters may not be able to see fartherthan their noses, but in Roosevelt himself we have an exceptionallyshrewdpolitician. The Colonel has seen plainly that he could notsecure enough votes in the primaries to ensure his nomination. Hadhe tried to do so, animosities would doubtless have been aroused, andhe would have gone to Chicago a much weaker, rather than stronger,man.

Unless we miss our mark, Roosevelt intends to spring a surprisein the convention at Chicago. He is right now trying to reach theconvention with the country on "an even keel" as to him. At thephychological moment he will make the supreme effort to carry theconvention off its feet. This program will not be carried out by him-

self personally, of course, but will be manipulated by lieutenants, butunder the direction of the Rough Rider.

And (mark our words) when Roosevelt turns his guns loose onthe Convention in Chicago, lots of white flags will go up. WhetherHawaii's little "two by four" pennant will be among the numberwe would not hazard a guess, but stranger things have happened.

Verily, prize-fightin- g in the United States has reached a lowebb. In days of old the battle between Willard and Moran Saturdaynight would have taken up the whole wireless sheet. As it turnedout, however, all sorts of ordinary events like the war in Europe,torpedoing of ships and even the chase of Villa came first, while Wil- -

lard's fight was given a bare mention toward the last. Surely the sunof the slugget is setting.

Rev. George Laughton, the diminutive but brilliant orator ofthe big island, now declares that God dropped Hilo out of Heaven".We are not prepared to argue this point, but may be pardoned forfeeling some interest in the question of why "God dropped Hilo outof Heaven".

The mail came into Ahukini at 3:30 o'clock this morning. Itreached the postoffice, two miles or so away, exactly four hours later.That has been the usual experience of Lihue for several months.

Mr. Bryan is now quoted as saying that he is for Wilson. ThePresident may have his faults, but we hardly think he deserves apunishment so severe as that.

THE GOVERNOR'S

noHomesteadets of the Kapaa and

Waipouli neighborhoods have re-

ceived the followingletter respecting the coming

visit of Governor Pinkham to thisisland:

Honolulu, March 21st, 1916,Dear Sir:

FREIGHT DELUGE

ON THE PACIFIC

(Special Washington correspondence of THEGARDEN ISLAND. )

Washington, D. C, March 8

Consul General George K. Ander-

son has made the following reportfrom Hongkong to the Departmentof Commerce:

"After making temporary in-

creases three times within the pastmonth in the rates on freight be-

tween Hongkong and Far Easternpoints on the Pacific Ocean on theone hand and the west coast of theUnited States on the ether, thetrans-Pacifi- c conference lines havefinally agreed to a somewhat radical increase which they anticipatewill bring some stability to thetrade for some time to come. Theincrease has been made upon practically all lines of products.

The general freight situation inHonekonsr and eastern ports hascome to a serious condition. Prac"'

tically every warehouse in Hong'kong is full of freight awaitingshipment. There is especiallystrong demand in the United Statesfor rubber from the East Indies,tin, guuny bags and jute. Thedemand for these products is sostrong that rates on them havegone up to a point and the demandfor space for them has become so

stronsr that practically no othercargo is going forward in the larger and faster ships. There is now5,000 tons of such valuable cargoin the warehoiise of one companyalone awaiting space. Praticallynothing at the present time is go

ing forward in the way of ordinarv Chinese merchandise. Theresult is that trade in some of theprincipal commodities in SouthChina at present is practically at a

standstill and at present there is

little or no prospect of any im

provement in the situation as regards such cargo.

The minimum rate of freightfrom Hongkong, Amoy.FoochowKeelung, and Manila to San Francisco, Portland, Oreg., Tacoma,Seattle, Victoria, and Vancouverbv the new tariff is $12 gold a tonof 2,003 pounds, or 40 cubic feetat ship's option, and the rate runsto $30 gold per ton on more valuable cargo plus an additional ad

valorem charge for the most valuable goods. The rates are effectivefor the Toyo Kisen Kaisha, TheRoyal Mail Steam Packet Co.the Ocean Steamship Co., (Ltd)the Java Pacific Lijn, the GlenLine. The Royal Mail SteamshipLine, the China Mutual SteamNavigation Co., the China MailSteamship Co., the Canadian Pacific Railway Co.'s Line, and thBank Line (Ltd J

WAliHREAfED

BY HISTORIANS

An exceedingly interesting anenjoyable meeting of the KauaiHistorical Society was held lastWednesday evening in Lihuewith Hon. W. H. Rice Sr., in thchair and Miss Elsie Wilcox secretary.

The leading features of the evening were: A charming and littl

"Tiiiown legendary story by MrRice, and a verv valuable interviewwith the late W.E.Rowell. by MrLvdgate dealing largely w i tearly life in Waimea. The oldWhitney House came in for mucdiscussion especially as to thmaterial used in its constructionit having been Mr. Rowell's honifor a number of years.

I wo lionorarv members wereelected Professor Hart and Colo-

nel De la Yeryne. The four activemembers elected were Mr. andMrs. . H. W. Kroadbent, Mrs.Burke ami Mr F. Patterson.

Several most interesting an-

ecdotes and reminiscences were re-

counted duiing the evening byMessrs. Rice, Hofgaard, Lydgateand S. W. Wilcox.

nterview With W. E. Rowell

(Continued from page 3)Dole. We read Latin and Greek,and did some higher mathematics.

Sunday we had to go to churchwhich was an infliction, which I,at any rate, didn't enjoy.

For one thing we had to wearshoes, and the service was leng-th- e

minute we got out, off came theshoes. Yes, I've pretty well evened it up by not going since. Onthe whole I suppose I haven't donemore than my share of churchgoing!

Occasional!' we went up to Ha- -

lemanu where Knudstn hadplace, even in those earlv days

Archer and Gruben were thefirst farmers at Kekaha, raising tobacco. depending on lhe winterrains, associated with them, probably, Clifford made cigars. Butit was a failure and they threw itup-- 1 suppose they had some kindoi a lease from the goat. Knudsenfollowed them, in 54 you say-ye- s

about them.Yes. tapa making was still a

thriving industry in my boyhooddays. I can remember hearing 6tapa-beate- rs going at once in tievalley; they got tne wauke up inthe mountains, perhaps they raisedit makai.

We came to general meeting,not every year at least the familydidn't come yever year. That was a

red letter occasion. We were distributed round amound the Hono-lulu members of the mission, wegenerally staid at the Castles, orthe Clarks. Sometimes familieshad to be divided up. No, themeetings were not held at Kawaia-ha- o

church, but in the DepositoryBuilding on Printers, Lane. TheDepository was run by Castle whowas the financial agent, He gotout printed lists of the goods instock, from which the missionariesmade up their orders, which werefilled for them from the stock. Thefirm of Castle & Cooke grew outof this, and for, a considerable timethis firm was located at that place.

Whalers came to Waimea fromtime to time and sometimes thecaptains, wives stayed withu3. Twoin particular I remember Mrs. Jeffries and Mrs. Hall. One ot these J

took quite a fancy to me and engaged me as cabin boy and paidme $12 by way of advance accord-ing to the custom which was pre-valent in those days. Tome it was

a serious business transaction. I

learned afterwards to my disap-pointment that it was a joke andpresume my mother gave the money baek.

Opportunities for earning; moneywere scarce in those days. Therewere no plantations or other in-

dustrial enterprises, the roads wereworked mainly by prisoners andthere was no other public workgoing on, except the building of

churches. And this work assumedlarge proportions, and was forsome yeats, in most of the islandcommunities, the great general in-

dustry. This was the building ofpermanent durable structure. Theearliest churches were flimsy, tem-

porary affairs, built to meet emer-gency requirements, and in a veryshort time thev fell into ruin andhad to be replaced with somethingmore permanent. The Waimeachurch was built of sand-ston- e,

which was quarried out in blocksabout 3 ft. long by 18 in, wideand 6 to 8 in. thick. This sand-

stone lay in great layers down nearthe beach, a mile or so away frmthe church site.

The stone was cut out with anaxe, it was quite soft when cut, andhardened with exposure. Theseblocks were transported t o thechurch by bullock carts, and werelaid up with lime mortar. The limefor this mortar was home-mad- e

from coral secured from the reefsby diving, pieces broken off, allshapes and sizes, A lime kiln, abig open pit 20 ft. or so in diameter, was mad near the church,just makai in what is now a canefield, no doubt you will find theplace readily when the cane is off.The fuel for burning this lime hadto be brought from the mountains15 or 16 miles away, logs hauleddown by ox teams, By virtue ofnecessity, as well perhaps, as fit'wess, my paymaster and financecommittee all in one. The woodwork involved selecting and squaring lehua timbers in the mountains and hauling them down.You know from our experience onthe Wainiha pole line what an undertaking this was.

The woods are full of trees butwhen vou want to find any particular kind or size, then they arefew and far between, and all thetall straight trees were down inthe bottom of narrow steep gulchesand had to be snaked out by hand

The tie beams had to be 42 feetlong, straight, and free from defeet, and they were mighty hardto find. You might think that

hauling them down, dragging overthe rocky road, would have wornthem out. Well it ground thecorners off sure! The floor, thedoors and windows were of impoi t--

material, also the seats. No Idon't think they were the sameones that they had now, they havebeen changed they are in the Waimea hall, Instead of an ed

pulpit my father made a nicelittle deal table and later I wentto the church people and beggedthem to let me have this table andI gave them another a koa tablein exchange and I have that tableyet. Yon know the church has atower, with a pole, in the middle,and on this pole, in those daysanyway, there was a large gildedball 18 ins. in diameter. The ori-

ginal ball was solid, of heavy wood.My father found that this was tooheavy, so he made another builtup hollow. I remember he had tobe verv careful applying the goldleaf, he had to do it in a still roomwhere there was no wind.
