lists finding that a bungalow tor rent,
furnished or unfurnished, is now a
rarity. 1t was stated to the committee
that with the present influx of visitors
Honolulu now presents the unusual con-
dition of having no houses which can
be rented. 1t was stated that the pro.
motion committee is deluged with re,
quests for information as to where
houses can be obtained
What is wanted is bungalow type,
not too large, nor too small, built with
an idea to be in accord with the eli
matte conditions.
Take Down the Fences.
The promotion committee put itself
on record as favoring a campaign
against the fences in the residence sec.
tions of the city. 1t was stated that
fences are being taken away gradually,
but the disappearance of the unsightly
barbados is all too slow. The promo.
tlonists can see no good reason why
fences should remain standing, particu-
larly when they can be replaced by low
hedges, but even hedges are not ad-
vocated by the committee.
PunahOu streetwas mentioned as one
example of what looks well and what
does not. Governor Frear s premises
have no fence IN front and the lack
of one exposes d beautiful expahke of
! lawn. On the same street are fences
which hide from view many beautiful
premises, and some, in addition are
veritable eyesores.
The hope was expressed that the un-
slightly board fence on the Punahou
side of the Pleasanton Hotel would be
taken down, as the fences of all prem
lses above have been taken away.
! Mr.. Won Damn expressed the opinion
that the promotion committee should
devote some of its energies toward the
antifence campaign, and the, committee
will endeavor to find way to induce
property holders to remove them.
Atlantic City Exhibit.
The committee authorized the clos
ing up of the Atlantic City exhibit
being maintained by the promotion
committee. The lease expires in Feb
ruary. The exhibit win probably be
sent on to the Boston missionary expo
sition to be held next spring, and to
which Hawaii will be leading con
tributor.

\ of small Floral Parade and carnival pos
ter stickers, mucilaged and small enoug
