in others, and so / say that 1 find
everything that is good and pleasing
and attractive in Hawaii. l have been
greatly impressed with the opportuni-
ties you have here. You have the
goods, which you advertise to deliver.
I believe there Is a microbe which at
lacks all visitors here so that they
are so charmed with the islands that
they do not want to leave them.
II used to wonder why people ever
came away out here in the middle of
the Pacific to live, and now that l am
here I can understand why you never
want to leave so beautiful a country.
I have come here to learn that you
have great opportunities commercially
here.
GREAT PLACE FOR HONEYMOON.
ALSO. | think its just the place for
a honeymoon couple to come to. for
its ideal for them However, aside
from the moonshine, there is the So
eial side of life in the islands which
appeals to the stranger. l came here
expecting to find a few foreigners and
some Americans, of course, and whom
l naturally expected to find engaged
mostly in politics. Uaughter). But
you can not imagine my surprise &c
md such an up-to-date American city

so many hospitable people here of al

will be glad to carry your message.
