Hawaii is enhancing. This is true
not only in the natural beauty of the
place, with its balmy climate, but also
in the great commercial eand industrial
advancement which may be. noted on
every side. 1t is the character of the
advancement, too, which is important,
for it has been a growth that is solid.

it would be very hard to give true
impression of the place. ] have been
familiar for years with commercial and
industrial conditions here, but ] must

which have been reached and the things
which have been accomplished. i was

character of advancement in this in
