Preparations
Were Made

Agents were sent to San Francisco
to investigate and find out what would
b. most enjoyed by the boys" while
in Honolulu and there was an earn
est and unanimous public sentiment
in favor of making extra eXertions
TO make the stay in Honolulu pleas
ant one. Large committees of citi-
zcns were selected and took up their
work with enthusiasm. Though
comparatively small community like
Honolulu could not lay out such eX-
tensive plans as San Francisco, which
has more than ten times Honolulus
total population and much more than
one hundred times her white pOpula-
ten, the little mid-Pacifc metropolis
took the matter up with enterprise
and ZEAL and intends to see that no.
thing is neglected, within the limits
of the community's possibilities, to
make the visit to Hawaii a pleasant
one. From the start outdoor sports
took the lead in discussions, and to
these, and to Hawaiian entertainments,
special attention will be directed. At the
same time the visitors will be helped
to choose their own enjoyments-
whatever they decide they want to
do, whether 1t be sports, excursions,
entertainments or any other kind OF
good diversion for shore leave, Ho'

help them to do.

RECEIVE THE FLEET.

Hawaii has to rely on the Amert-
can navy for her protection more than
any other spot under the American
Tag. She is a far outpost on the Pa
Cifc Ocean and has always been de-
fenseless up to the present time,
when Uncle Sam is placing heavy
guns on her shores near Honolulu
and is creating a great naval station
al Pearl Harbor. AS a consequence
of her ocean-central position, Hawaii
has special interest in the navy,
and nowhere was the news that the
Atlantic fleet was to visit the Paci-
fc received with more joy than in
these islands.
The splendid cruise down the east
ern coast of South America, through
the dangerous Straits of Magellan, up
the other side and to San Francisco
on schedule time was watched day
by day in Hawaii with the keenest
interest. Gables were received in
Honolulu every day when there was
progress to report, and nowhere did
the people watch more interestedly
than IN Honolulu while the record of
successful cruising was made from
day to day.
As soon as the fleet approached the
Pacific coast Honolulu began prepar-
atoms to dress herself in colors and
do all that the community could to
properly receive and entertain the
members of the fleet.
