THE CLIMATE OF HAWAII.

The Hawaiian climate has been men,
toned as one OF the natural resources.
The inhabited islands are within l54 de-
grees, 30 minutes and l60 degrees 30
minutes west longitude and 10 degrees
and % degrees 30 minutes north lati-
tude. They are within the trade wind
belts, are surrounded in every direction
by thousands OF miles OF ocean, unbrok-
en- by any shores save the smallest islets.
The air currents that come 70 them are
pure and full of the tonic of the sea.
The temperature Is hardly tropical, yet
entices all of every age into the open air
all the year round. Sunstroke is practi-
cally unknown. No one Is debilitated
except by his own inactivity. Out-of.
door athletics prevail much rs they do
in America. Men from northern cli-
mates work freely and comfortable under
the suns direct rays. There Is no de-
terioration Of Anglo-Ssxon families from
generation to generation, either physical
ly or mentally, but there are indications
OF contrary tendency.
A climate of this quality Is q resource,
because II attracts tourists who are run
ming away from cold weather and set
tiers who are tired of the struggle with
nature In higher lstitudes. Ii affects
national prosperity as 1t promotes the
general health. The tops of the highest
mountains have heavy falls of snow 10
the rainy season. From these to the
sea-shore Is large variety for one to
choose from, with an environment OF
scenery everywhere-land and sea,
forest and meadow and silver stream
which Is beyond the anticipations OF
every visitor. or.-Ex-President Sanford B.
