(3-23) Recommends Approval of 31st Annual Report of Trustees Of Charles R. Bishop Trust The report, in part, follows: The undersigned master of the court to whom was referred the petition of the trustees of "the Charles R. Bishop Trust" for the examination, approval and allowance of their thirty-first annual report and account, reports as fol lows. It was noted immediately that the work of these trustees could not be well understood without some study of the several philanthropic projects of Bernice Pauahi Bishop and of her husband, R. Bishop, especially their, correlation.

Evidently it has customary for years to classify all those philanthropies under the three headings, Bernice P. Bishop Estate," 4 Bernice Bishop and "Charles R. Bishop Trust." That most of the account, before, the court, of the five trustees the Charles R. Bishop Trust" has to do with the Bernice Bishop Museum, managed by seven trustees, and that the development of that insticution is now the chief duty of these five trustees, shows the need of looking further than merely to the terms of that particular trust deed of Charles R. Bishop, dated 1, 1895, and its several August amendatory deeds, trust defining deed which those duties under have been, and still are, somewhat to ag 4 the Charles R.

Bishop loosely referred, it appears that 1he deed While of trust made by Charles R. Bishop August 1, 1895 (amended seven times throughout a period of nearly for many of his twenty years, benefactions, provides the provisions thereof certainly do not comprise Charles R.

Bishop of that a fair understanding deed of trust reparticular above remarked some consideration of his other deeds of trust, made both earlier and later, and concerning the Kamehameha Approval of the thirty-first annual accounts of the trustees of the Charles R. Bishop trust was recommended yesterday in a master's report filed in the circuit court by John A. Mattewman. The accounts and accompanying report of the trustees were commended by Matthewman and were recommended for use as models in similar estate matters, In the report it is pointed out that it is a confusing misnomer, though it has been followed for years, to refer to the benefactions. of as the "The late Charles Charles R.

R. Bishop Bishop Trust." under because one by particular eight other trust deeds he provided for the Kamehameha schools and by four others for the Bishop museum, his trusts altogether being represented in 20 separate documents executed by him. schools and the Bernice P. Bishop Museum. That requirement quite naturally follows from these three outstanding, tivities the (1) that the main actrustees now petitioning the court concern the Bernice P.

Bishop Museum; (2) that the Bernice P. Bishop Museum was founded by four trust deeds of Charles R. Bishop; and (3) that the transfers of funds by these petitioning trustees to the "Trustees of the Bernice P. Bishop Museum' although with "full power in these petitioners to determine 4 the particular purpose to which any such payment shall be devoted by the trustees of the Bernice P. Bishop Museum -must be for some particular purpose? that would be clearly proper for the museum trustees, under their own limitations of authority for conducting the museum, to carry out, notwithstanding the "full power" just mentioned.

For the year under consideration these petitioners made expenditures to totaling 661.34. A very large part of that amount. $93,782.84, was paid out in donations to the Bernice Bishop Museum. Without doubt most of those expenditures for the museum were proper. The question has arisen, however.

whether it was justifiable to pay $1000 to the trustees of the museum for "'twe Museum-Yale fellows." The undersigned, having read the 31 reports of the previous masters appointed to consider the annual accounts of the frustees acting under the Charles R. Bishop Trust called--a list of those reports with the masters being hereto appended--noticed especially the master's report made January 15, 1917, and the elaborate but inconclusive argument therein contained that it is within the power of the trustees under this trust to use the trust funds for practically any branch of scientific study and research conducted by the museum trustees that argument having been based on the words, "as a sei. entific institution -for collecting preserving and storing and exhibiting specimens of natural history and for the study of said appearing in the deed of October 13, 1890, which had been ordered by the court to be made from five to seven trustees. (Those words are not found in the original and irrevocable trust deed of Charles R. Bishop of May 19, 1892.) It appeared that perhaps the very strong recommendation contained in that report had been followed and that these present petitioning trustees had turned over money to the museum trustees for some branch of general scientific work not connected with a museum's ordinary activities, especially the authorized activities of the trustees of the Bernice P.

Bishop Museum. However, an investigation has shown that not to be the case. Similarly, the announced purpose of the present trustees to funds enable the museum enter in a proposed agreement with the Hawaiian Sugar Planters association with the object of collecting, mounting. sorting and identifying the insects of the Pacific islands, and of preparing lists and descriptions of the same for publication, appears to be both technically justifiable and also commendable. In connection with the existing loan much moreby the trustees to the Parker ranch and the loan--which was retired on February 20, 1926-of $6500 to W.

W. Chamberlain, there is to be considered the fourth amendment of April 8, 1910, to the Charles R. Bishop trust deed of August 1, 1895, by which was added to the latter the following provision: may be made in the purchase of the bonds of any state, territory, county or munieipality of the United States or of any public service Dan McCorriston, Molokai Kamaaina; Taken By Death PUKOO, March McCorriston passed away at his Molokai residence at Kamalo where be made, his, home with his large family 54 only moving orrhape a few years, feet in that leugth of time. McCorriston left Ireland in the 1862 at the age of 22 and year came by a sailing ship, taking 37 days from Ireland to New York. There he met the late Robert Lewers and they traveled together to the Hawaiian Islands.

His fret enterprise here was when he started with his late brother Hugh who died last October a rice mill at Waiau, Oahu, this being around the year 1865. In 1873 be, with his brother Hugh, landed on Molokai where they start- and ed a smal' sugar plantation only when quite a few years later the mill burned down they took up ranching. While a resident of Molokai he held the positions of, District Magistrate, Road overseer, Postmaster, Notary public and agent manager grant of marriages besides being his own plantation. He died at the age of 87 leaving one sister living in Ireland and the following children, Mrs. Otto Mrs.

He Kamalo will be buried in the plot of the Catholic Church beside his children and where he has attended mass for the last 50 years.

He died on March 13 at 7:10 a. surrounded by all of his children, and funeral services were held from his late residence on Monday, TENNEY HOME I IS GIVEN EMPLOYES Announcement was made yesterday that Edward D. Tenney, president of Castle Cooke, has transferred the title to his country estate, Kaiahulu, Mokuleia, to the firm for use by its employes as 3 recreational center. The direc tors have agreed to maintain the 'estate in accordance with the wish 18 exnressed by Tenney in making the gift. corporation organized under the laws of any state or territory of the United States and operating in the United As a matter of first impression, this provision appears to be a limitation the power of the trustees to upon, investment of trust funds, but that is not so except as to investments outside of Hawaii.

The rule being that, without express: authority otherwise, trust funds should not be invested in foreign jurisdictions, the donor quite surely intended, by this sentence, to authorize investments outside of Hawali, provided they are in bonds of the kinds specified. Immediately preceding words just quoted, he conferred the broad power upon the trustees invest all moneys that shall from time to time come to their hands under or by virtue of the provisions of this deed of trust requiring investment including the proceeds of sale of any part of the real and personal property subject to the trusts hereby created in such securities as to the said trustees shall seem wise having regard moreeto good security than to high rates of interest." Thus the trustees have great latitude checked chiefly by an instruction to carefully consider safety of the investments in the investing of trust funds within Hawali. The thirty-first annual report of these trustees and detailed account accompanying the same have been examined and checked in detail. The petition of the trustees for the approval of their annual accountwhich petition was referred by the court to the undersigned as master for examination and reporthaving prayed that the account be 'examined, approved and allowed by the it is hereby recommended that the same be so approved and allowed. For clarity, conciseness and neatness, this trustees' report and the accompanying account might well be used as models in other trust estates.

The assistance rendered by the trustees to the court's officer in the discharge of his duties under this reference has been most courteous and helpful. 00000000 8 Be Cheerful!

The idea of making a religious appeal through the arts using tableaux and colored stereopticon slides, with appropriate vocal and instrumental music nccompanying, was conceived by Prof.

H. Augustine Smith of Boston university. In the East these programs are coming to be popular, the most notable instance being at Birmingham, Alabama, last summer. There Prof. Smith inspired of great crowds by the combination a symphony orchestra, with pictures on the screen, and tableaux on the stage.

The Central Union program ineludes: gospel songs on the screen, led by Mr. MeDill, four tableaux 011 the life of Christ, stereopticon slides from the great artists, and music by the quartet. The tableaux are being Planned, by Mrs. Malcolm Macintyre, P. Erdman and Mrs.

Norman Schenck. They represent "The Boy Jesus and His Friends," the Children." "The Angel at the Tomb. The lighting and other mechanical essentials of the program is being planned by Ward Nichols, and will add much to the beauty of production. The musie is under the direction of Vernon Robinson. The Rev.

Swartz will preside. The program was planned by the Rev. Buckham, who has corresponded with H. Augustine Smith on this matter and made a special study of the use of the fine arts in church services. The publie is welcome.

These young actors all should be commended for their clear and intelligent readings, as exultant spirit of the performance. Exuberance of suits well the farcical nature old play. It youth, would seem that Shakespeare wrote it with an idea of giving each member of his company a pronounced character bit to do. And the Punshou players filled the bill nicely in each instance. After the first few moments, and when the auditor gets little used to hearing the lines spoken by youthful voices, atmosphere created was quite real.

Paul Budd made a handsome Petruchio, scowlingly set to the task of making a gentle out of a shrew. Katherine was beautiful. enough to make the task worth while. She wore her dowing skirts wonderfully well when the present fashion of girl dress is EUGENE BANKS considered. Bianca, the coy younger daughter of Baptista, played by Ivy Williams, was no less pretty in an entirely different way.

Alfred Hess as Gremio, wooed her in cavalier style. The other two suitors for her hand. Edgar Schenck as Hortensio, and Ben Webster as Lucention were well characterized. One of the happiest personifications was that of Biondello. In this role Jean MacIntire, full of life, happy in expression, gesture and countenance added sprightliness to the throughout.

Other roles were in the hands of David Moncrief, Stephanie Fraser, Peggy Hockley, Harry Arnold, Beth Bartlett, Florence Mullin, Alexander Atherton and Howard Moore.
