it is hoped that the Honolulu detail
of Uncle Sans boys will find their
lines laid in a pleasant place. The ma
tural desire is to have a look about
the country. to obtain a knowledge of
the surroundings of the camp, or bar
racks; to note the peculiarities OF Ma
lures handiwork, in and about Homo
lulu. In this the Soldier visitor must
help himself, but, he may obtain
most useful and valuable assistant, one
who will reduce the time, the distance,
the expense of sightseeing and who
will always be ready to accompany
him in his jaunts. This useful assist
ant may be either a high grade Cres-
cent or Reminton bicycle. and which
must be sold for less than cost, to
make room for a carload of Sterling
bicycles now in transit. Members of
Company I, n, A and K will find a bar
