BAND GETS MORE MONEY.
The question of the hand going
abroad was discussed.
Kapellmeister Berger said that II the
band went abroad 1t went to do a mis-
sionary work on behalf of Hawaii nei.
He wanted to go, If the board elected
to send the band, as well prepared and
in as efficient condition as possible.
He thought that such a trip could not
fail to do Hawaii great deal of good.
Joe Cohen spoke of the good the trip
would do the Territory and pointed out
that already many tourists were COM
ing here, whose attention was first
drawn to Hawaii by hearing the band
at Portland Fair.
Moore moved that the band he al
lowed $3.50 extra per month for the
next four months and that the money
be expended under the supervision of
the board.
I'"as said he was perfectly willing
to further anything that tended to
benefit Hawaii but in this case he
would like to be certain that the pub
lie really wanted the band to go away
If they did, he would wish the band
God speed, with all his heart.
Moore said that the Promotion Com
mittee would probably obtain the mer-
chants approval of the scheme, which
he thought would be unanimous.
The motion was carried, Adams and
Lucas voting aye" with the proviso
that the business community endorsed
the project.
AS matters stand the band will be
absent on the mainland during the
months OF June, July. August and
September
