Personnel. 



It is with regret that I announce the death from consumption 

 on June 20 of Forest Ranger Kaina D. Lovell. He was a faith- 

 ful worker and did efficient work in his district on Kauai. 



On June 20, Forest Ranger Francis B. Dodge for the Island 

 of Hawaii severed his connection so that he could enlist in the 

 navy. I have since been attempting to find an efficient man to 

 take his place and hope before long to secure one capable of 

 filling the position. 



Respectfully submitted, 



C. S. JUDD^ 

 Superintendent of Forestry.
