Tomorrow

The count will be published tomor-
row afternoon.
No contest ever held in the Islands
has aroused the general and univer-
sally favorable interest that has been
stirred up by the Bulletins Pacific
States Tour for Hawaii's young la
dies. Everybody has been asking for
the day of the first count so they may
know who is entered and who needs
votes.
The Bulletin anticipates some very
interesting surprises, Judged by the
mass of votes coming in from the
other Islands. The prospects now are
that the contest will start with the
largest preliminary vote that has ev-
or been known here.
Hawaii is out hot-foot for its fav-
orites and Hilo and the Hamakua
Coast intend to have more than one
in the final Lucky Six, and perhaps
three, if such thing is possible,-and
il is if they get the votes.
Someone has said that the people
Of Oahu have the advantage. 1t is a
pretty safe prediction that the first
count will show this to be entirely
wrong. It will be remarkable in
deed if a representative Of each Isl.
and of the group is not found in the
final list and some have promised that
! the outsiders will take them all.
