IMPORTANCE or ADVERTISING.

No matter in what way the subject
is approached. the importance OF send
ing to ST. Louis next year a compre-
hensive exhibit of the resources Of this
Territory. appeals 70 the thinking man
However the commission is to be APP
pointed, if there is to be commission,
makes no difference in the long run, the
end TO be attained being the sending on
of an advertising display. and one
which will stick in the memories of the
hundreds of thousands of people who
VIII view it if it attracts them. =
There should be in the minds Of none
Of the legislators or the people a com
parison Of what is to be done at St
Louis with what was done at Buffalo.
There the only attraction. bearing the
name of Hawaii. was hula dancing
and singing outfit. the soberIy earnest
being typifed by an educational exhibit
which was carefully tucked away be-
hind curtains. The really fine display
OF the youths of the Territory had so
little value in the minds OF those who
had II in charge, that Ii has now been
dissipated as there was absolutely no
real care taken of it. once the period of
the exhibition had passed.
What can be done in short time and
for small space was shown in the mat
ter OF the osaka display. which in it's
Photographic section alone was well
worthy of the cause for which it was
prepared and win form the nucleus of
the greater display which win be sent
to the Louisiana Purchase Fair. There
are so many things here which would
attract, but which are viewed with
complacency because of very familiari-
ty. that the task of preparing a display
should not be neglected.
The plan for a house for Hawaii is
one which appeals to those who know
from experience the value of a local
lied display when it comes to the at
traction Of the passer by. Some good
curios. shown behind glass. a full line
of the things grown and produced. ma
tive woods and pictures OF the Islands
show places. would go far to make the
display one which would be remem-
bered and talked about BIZ those who
see It.
st. Louis will be the center of the
United States when the exposition is
in full running order, for that is the
way of Americans. This will be true not
only as to the objective of tours and
excursions. but as well in that the
minds of the stay at homes viii be
upon the doings and the sights. There
is much in utilizing the opportunity to
have the press become the volunteer
aid TO the exertions of the promoters
of advertising for the Islands, and
some one should be constantly at work
spreading the gospel of indispensable
climate and dreamIand in the seas.
