In Peats and War Usa ALLEN'S FOOT-EASE A prominent British Government
officer, in a speech about the war to a
large Doay or Dusmess men in r . x . city recently said, "After the tired soldier has returned from a 12 mile tramp, with swollen and aching feet, is there a mother, who, if she knew, wonld not go oat and fret some Foot-Ease to send to her boy V , People everywhere should realize
the O com fort derived from Allen's Foot-Ease, the antiseptic healing powder to be shaken into the shoes. It takes the friction from the shoe and gives instant relief to tired, aching, swollen, tender feet, corns, bunions, blisters and callouses.

Americanization Of Hawaiian
Schools Blocked By Senate HONOLULU, Hawaii, May 27. Ef
forts on the part of lawmakers to effect the Americanization of the schools of Hawaii to the highest possible degree were blocked when the senate of the Territorial legislature, by a
vote of 1 to 14. tabled the bill "to
presbribe certain qualifications for school teachers and regulating the courses of instruction for the purpose of safeguarding American citizenship in the Territory of Hawaii."
The Intent of the measure was to
bring the foreign language schools of the territory Japanese, Chinese and
Korean under closer surveillance by the department of public instruction, and followed, to some extent, lines of legislation already adopted on the mainland.
Local Japanese conducted a rather extensive "lobby" against the measure, and at the last moment certain Chinese of Honolulu sent to the senate a letter protesting against the bill, although at an earlier date Chinese educators had stated they were ready to conform to the provisions of the measure should it become law. Among the Japanese who favored the
measure was Rokuro Morol, consulgeneral. N
