WORKING OUT
PARADE PLANS
Harold Dillingham's Schemes for
Floral Pageant Are Liked
by Committee.

nit.ee. Through Acting Secretary viii
7. Cooper, who had talked with him,
Harold Dillingham's views were pre-
Iented to the committee and met with
general approval.
There are still three months before
he parade's pageantry goes through
1onolulu's streets, and Dillingham;,
who has accepted the task of organ
zing, designing and arranging it,
kinks that the greatest "steam"
lhould be applied to the preparations
Turing the last month, in order to pre-
rent the interest of the men upon whom
lie must rely the most becoming worn
Ir tagging at the time it is needed
host. r-
Up to that time he will lay his plans
Ind choose his aides in the work so
hat when the last stretch of the work
/ reached it will not be aimless, but
g'ill proceed smoothly along prear-
|anged and systematic lines. Cooper
old the committee that if Dillingham;
eeps up his present energy and car
les out his ideas, the parade will be
reat success. He has many original
heas that will, if carried into execu-
on, make the parade greater than its
predecessors, as all parades should be.
Scientific Promotion.
4 In the distribution by the promotion
pmmittee this week of several thou
md circular letters, new scheme of
romotion has been worked up, orig
bal in its conception and undoubtedly
be of the greatest influence along
fomotion lines. Previous to his de-
'arture on his oriental tour, Secretary
/. P. Wood wrote back to the county
Bsessors in all the States in the Mis-
ssippi Basin-Ohio, Kansas, Michigan
Nd those adjacent-and asked them
AR a list of the Weather people in
heir counties who were in the habit
travelling extensively.
The assessors answered promptly and
the point, and as consequence the
bmmittee became possessed of list
4 people who were the very best in
a i world to appeal to. 1t would be
tange if very many of the letters
INT to them would miss their mark.
18th the letters go several pamphlets
n Hawaii.

re the attention of the committee
