SCHOOLS OF HAWAII
LOSE MANY TEACHERS
HONOLULU, Oct, 31. — Hawaiian
schools are likely to suffer a severe
lack of teachers this fall, for the sup
ply of qualified women in the islands
is being reduced almost daily.
The situation in Hawaii is peculiar,
for most of the teachers here are the
wives of army officers and enlisted
men. The teachers' husbands are be
ing transferred to other points, and
their wives are going with them, or,
in the event of the men being sent to
•the fighting line in Europe, back to
their homes
The consequence is that heroic
measures may have to be adopted to
And a supply of women teachers In
Hawaii, or to devise means by which
those who are left can be made to
All the places of those who have gone.

Your attention is called to the matter of your water supply
for this winter. Last winter we were short of water, caused
in large part by wastage, due to allowing the water to run
continually, to prevent the pipes from freezing.
We have done everything in our power to insure a sufficient sup
ply for this winter, and we must stop the wastage! There
fore we are hereby giving notice that wherever we find the i.
ijij water allowed to run continually, day or night, we shall im- U
mediately discontinue that particular service until spring.
§j All accounts are due and payable before the 1 Oth of each month. I
j§ When we are obliged to discontinue service because of non- I
|i payment, a charge will be made for the re-connecting of §j|
!§ water, light, or telephone.
