VISITOR FROM SOUTHERN

OF HONOLULU HE SAYS: WHY, I
AM SIMPLY IN LOVE WITH
THIS BEAUTIFUL
PLACE.

Los Angeles cannot compare with
Honolulu for winter resort, accord
ing to the opinion Of w. F. Montgom-
cry. who has been a resident of the
Southern California city for 81 years,
and therefore must be familiar with
its climate. II the people OF Los An
geles could realize the enthusiasm that
has been aroused in their fellow towns
man for Honolulu, II is probable they
would be growing anxious to see the
Paradise of the Pacific" also.
Los Angeles is nice but this beats
Il for a winter climate" said Mr.. Mont
gomery In giving his opinion OF Homo
lulu. why, am simply in love with
this place. have never seen a winter
resort that can beat II.
What don't understand is why this
is not better known as winter resort.
I suppose 1t has not been advertised as
resort, or certainly It would have
more tourists and its advantages would
be better known abroad.
"The people here should take ex-
ample from Los Angeles and advertise
more. They could easily build up a
tourist trade that would be the making
OF the city That is what made Los
I Angeles the resort II is. and II is the
tourist trade that makes the city.
They are wealthy people and they come
there and they leave money. too.
Now. Los Angeles can never be the
place this is for winter resort. Why,
there we had frost almost every morn
ing during December, but frost Is never
known here. | don't like to 20 back
on Los Angeles. but | must say again
that this certainly beats II when II
comes to winter climate.
Besides the climate and similar at
fractions here. ! get very much inter-
ested in the cosmopolitan inhabitants
OF Honolulu. especially the japanese.
who dress in their own peculiar way.
| don't see the need Of going abroad 20
see the various people OF the earth
when one can come right here to Homo
lulu and see them as they look at home.
"of course. have only been here n
few days. came in on the Mongolia,
but | certainly think this is destined
TO be the playground OF the world.
Surely Uncle Sam should feel proud OF
having acquired these islands. II any
body asks me when | get back. where
they should go for vacation, will
tell them TO come to Honolulu.
II can tell you II makes a man feel
good to come down here and have q
rest after he has been tied up with
his business for long time. II gives
n person a new lease OF life.
1T seems to me that they should
have better ocean service for this place
