exhibition
Mr.. ChiIds has been doing great worl
in Southern California and has mad
the Hawaiian Islands famous there. |
is almost entirely due to his indefatig
liable efforts that the Transpacifc zach
race took place this year and the Pro
motion Committee feels that he will b
carrying on the same good work il
Seattle that he has done in the soutl
and is the right man for the place.
It was decided that H. P. Woot
should retain his position as secretary
of the Alaska Yukon committee which
work he has been doing temporarily
until ratification by the committee.
A design for the Floral Parade poster
was presented by III. Christian but was
not accepted as yet as the committee
is still open to receive designs.
| It was decided to print another edi
ton of the folder "Hawaii, Primer, ;
after the same has been revised and
| brought up to date in every way.
| Those who were present at the meet
| ing were w. d. Brown, chairman; w.
| A. Bowen, G. F. Bush, j. Mclean, r. IL.
Trent and III. P. Wood.
Secretary's Report.
The regular report of Secretary Wood
| was:
After comforting with your chair
man, Mr.. w. E. Brown, wrote to Mr..
E. A. Mott Smith, superintendent of
immigra ton, asking if we might place
our maps, folders, etc, on file in the
he Of
poses establishing in New York and
am pleased to report the receipt of the
following answer:
ct am in receipt of your favor of
today's date asking that the Hawaii
Promotion Committee may have the
privilege of keeping matter, samples of
which you have furnished, in the Office
proposed to be opened by the Board of
Immigration in New York City under
charge of Mr.. Trenor, and also asking
the privilege of stating to parties In
New York desiring information about
Hawaii that they can secure the same
from Mr.. Trenor.
''This request meets with my entire
approval and | am sure will meet with
the approval of the board. AS [ under
stand it, you wish Mr.. Trenor to take
it up in a merely incidental way in
with his office and to have
a place there in New York where the
material, which you have enclosed, can
be shown and questions answered. L
will write to Mr.. Trenor to this effect.
The matter for our map and guide
to the Island of Oahu is now in the
hands of the printer and will, / think,
prove to be one of the most valuable
the committee has issued.
| hope to have it finished early next
week
In order to complete the series, Mr.. |
Fl. z. Newton is now at work, during |
his spare moments, on the maps of the |
other islands.
Following Oahu, / will be prepared |
to submit the matter for the Hawaii |
folder. One side of the folder will |
be taken up with an accurate map of |
the big island; on the other side, in
addition to statistical and descriptive
matter, we will have an excellent map
If Kilauea, showing as well, location
If Volcano House, trails, roads, etc.
The Maui folder, in addition to the
nap of the twin islands, will also carry
good map of Haleakala, giving ele-
trails, etc.
The Kauai folder will also be com.
,lete. The maps in every instance Will
,e made to scale and viii be thor
'ughly up to date.
As soon as the Oahu folder is out,
We will send copies quite generally to
he other Islands, asking for informa-
ion along similar lines, to be used IN
he folders of Hawaii, Maui and Kauai,
which we will endeavor to make as
omplete as possible. Feeling that the
of fishing as a sport should
e thoroughly exploited we have asked
Or. II. NJ Ayers to submit to the COM {
littee, at an early date as may be
onvenient. a series of ten or twelve
rticles covering the subject quite thor
ughly, and hope that the committee
lay decide to have the matter printed
n attractive pamphlet form, suitably
Illustrated.
| am now in correspondence with
ifferent parties in Colombo and S1nga-
ore with reference to distributing our Z
dvertising matter on board all steam
rs calling at those ports, and IN the
vent of our being able to secure re-
able service at moderate cost, | would
the printing of two-page
afet in English. French and German,
, be used in those ports. Such lear C
t will serve to arrest the traveller s s.
ttention, and should he desire further T
formation about the Islands he Will fl
len know where to obtain it. n
