| beg 10 state. what while on tho
mainland attending college. | did some
work II the Kind described above, dur
ing my summer vacations. and found
Il quite rcmunerniivc. With prcpar
ed talk ON Hawaii, Hawaiian songs aud
recitaiions. both In Hawaiian and Eng
lish, all Of which took about forty.
five minutes 20 render. ! was able to
take IN two hotels n night where they
were close To one another and netted
the neat little sum Of about ten dol.
lars on an average. just before my re.
turn, through the efforts Of my friends,
| secured engagements at the Mt. Mo.
honk and Minnewaska hotels which are
frst-class houses in New York made
sixty.six dollars from these two places.
! mention this fact because. IL these
Hawaiian boys are sent under the aus.
piccs of the Hawaii Promotion Com.
mittee, with letters of recommendation
from our prominent citizens who ar.
well known on the mainland, they
would be able TO secure engagements
at summer resort places of the kind
mentioned, and net enough TO meet
some of the winters expenses after de.
fraying the summers liabilities.
Work of this kind, | am sure can be
had during the winter months also
without interfering with ones studies
very much at churches or chapels.
| In addition to what | have mention
ed, these boys can defray large part
of their expenses by waiting on table
during tho college .erm.
In view of what i have related, it
appears TO me, that the committee will
be called upon TO meet only the travel.
ing expenses and tuition for TIE first
year. After the first year can see
no reason why these young men should
not become self supporting.
! Instead of making a gratuitous loan
OF the money that you may see fit TO
advance, notes might be taken bear.
ing reasonable percentage of inter
est. These young men will then be
made to understand that they are un.
dertaking an obligation which they
would have to meet some day In view
of that, i am sure they would make
every effort to incur as small an obliga-
tion as they possibly can. j would not
be surprised that some Of them. if not
all, would be met ere the college course
is closed.
You will notice that am optimistic
about this matter, but ] am assured,
however, that with the wide experience
you have had, you will readily support
me in my views.
Trusting that the day will soon come
when You will be able to undertake this
proposition, which would be beneficial
not only to the country, but also to her
sons, | beg to remain,
Very sincerely yours,
A. G.. KAULUKOU.
NO DEER SHOOTING.
With reference to varied entertain
ments for strangers here. II was re-
ported to the committee that the or
ganization of shooting parties To raid
the Molokai deer is being discouraged,
as the deer are gradually becoming
wiped out.
The Promotion Committee Is looking

grabbing parties. as well as fishing In
glass-bottomed boats.
RUSH OF TOURISTS.
Mr.. Smith stated that Manager Bews
OF the Hawaiian Hotel had expressed
the opinion that the rush OF tourists
to Hawaii had really only begun. Sec
retary Wood said that in his opinion
where there was one tourist coming
here today, there would be three next
winter.
Mr.. Smith said that summer before
10 he had told several friends that
all the hotels In town would be filed
this year. He was laughed at. His
prophecy, he was glad to say, was
true. The hotels We're filling up, but
there was always room for more
CUT HACK RATES.
1t was stated that some hackmen
are seriously considering lowering the
rates to the Pail and to Tantalus, ow>
ing to the tallyho parties cutting in on
their business. 1t was reported that
the 900 hackstand men on King
street had decided to cut the prices in
half
Manuel Refs, proprietor of this
stand, has also asked that the Pro-
motion Committee request Treasurer
Campbell to prepare huge placards
giving the hack rates in plain letters
and figures. to be posted on the
wharves, so that tourists might see
them on arrival
