Federation
TO form a more perfect
union" was the animating
thought of the statesmen who
met to draft America's consti
tution. Their problem was to
Weld the sections they repre
sented into a political entity that
would function most efficiently
and enduringly in the service of '
the people.
'A similar problem was pre
sented nearly a century later to
the organizers of America's tele
phoneservice.Licensesunderthc first patents were being granted
to isolated companies that were
forming to introduce local serv
ice. "A more perfect union" of
these companies seemed, from
the beginning of the telephone's
adoption by the 'people, to be N
essential, and so the structure of
the Bell System was planned.
This organization exists today
substantially as it was then con
ceived a group of companies,
each preserving its individuality
and applying local knowledge to
local needs, but all federated
into a single cohesive union in
order that nation-wide, univer
sal service may be provided.

TO FIGHT FIRES
IN Hll DIET
HONOU'LU. July 13. Th
'battle of Oahu" may have been
constructive and theoretical, and
the winner may never be decided
officially, but the 1925 maneu
ver ol the United States fleet al
ready have had a definite effect
upon the cuisine and culinary ha
bits of the residents of the ter-
rltiry.
Some authority informed tne
professional and amateur restau
rateurs of Laliaina, Island of
Maul, where the ships ennaned in
three weeks of minor maneuvers,
that the fleet personnel subsisted
entirely upon the favorito Am
erican dish ot 'ham and." The
result was that the menu of every
restaurant, old or newly-built In
anticipation of huge proftu from
shore-going sailors, consisted
solely ot ham and eggs, done In
only one style.
Ham and evfts for breakfast;
ham and eggs for lunch; ham and
eggs for dinner, and in between
ail three and there were no
other dishes offered to appease
the hunger. Most ot the sailors
after one or two meals ashore,
fled back to their ships In Belt
protection for a plate of beans.
Hut the latest lnunovutlou is the
appearance of a new cocktull,
composed of milk, honey and pol,
upon the menus of Honolulu ho-,
tels. Hehlnd this wus a remark
of Admiral ltobert E. Coontx,
commander-in-chief of the fleet,
at a bukilau or native fish feast
given on the beach in honor of
senior fleet officers and visiting
newspaper men.
Pol, the Hawaiian ataff ot life,
la to the Polynesian what wheat
is to the white man. Ground from
the roots of the tare into a thick
paste, it la eaten with the fingers
or with a spoon in polite so
ciety. An inquiring reporter, noticing
Admiral Coontz apparently con
suming his pol with a relish, ask
ed him how be liked the back
bone ot any Hawaiian meal. The
answer told of the Admiral's many
previous visits to the islands, hts
liking for pol, and also adduced
the information that the high
command's daily breakfast In Ha
waiin waters included a dish ot
poi with an admixture ot milk
and honey.
"Poi with milk and houey. a
la Admiral Coonu." has appeared
since on the breakfast menus of
Honolulu hotels.
location makes exploration ex
trrmenly difficult. However, on the
leures where the formation are
plainly visible, the faUen trunks
of giant trees are in open sight
and by carefully negotiating the
precipitous canyon, the standing
trees may be seen to reacu a
hclKht of 60 feet or more. The dia
meter of many of the larger spect
nu-us is as much as five feet and a
tree two feet in diameter Is com
mon. "To view the work of time on
the precipitous walls ot the canyon
u is necessary to scale the ollfts ;
and pass over the ledges made by
the breaking away ot the solid
rock. This weathering has gone
far enouKh to open a passage into .
the forest "that in reality honey-1
comas tne milslde. Where the
tree trunks have been brought Into
contact with the air, the wood has
rapidly decomposed and left the
bellow snails in the solid rock.
"lly traveling along the ledges
and breaking aw ay the loose ac
cumulations of small scallngs, the
hoiluw forest may be entered, one
tree at a time, as the wall of the
canyon is of solid basalt and the
only openings are where the
trunks of the trees offer perpen
dicular shafts, most ot which are
"'ill filled with the decaying wood
of many centuries axo."
Mr. Tardy expressed the opln
slon iha turth 'exploration ,bf
the site might reveal the presence
of animal life of the period when
the molten rock overflowed the
forest.
