LITTLE INTERVIEWS



JIMMY FRIEL-,Wel, I've been the
list purser of the Kilauea. That's
something to be proud Of
/ J. p. COOKE-It's twenty-fopr
/ years since l last saw the volcano. I
have not been to see it since 1887.
r. W. BRECKONS-I think our
jury system is the best that could be
devised to insure justice being done
DR.. McCOY-The island of Hawaii
is well worth seeing, and | enjoyed
every minute of the time I was there
I CLAUDIUS MCBRIDE When I say
that the press needs saving, l mean
that it should be helped wherever pos
sible
J. A. KENNEDY-Kona is a fine
place for. the small farmer There
coffee, pineapples and plenty of other
things can he grown.
w. r. FILTlER-We are certainly
getting along well with the Hilo rail
road. Hakalau is now tapped, and We
are pushing on as rapidly as possible
. JIM QUINN happen to know
that Governor Frear paid for those
five automobiles himself and did not
draw on his public entertainment
fund.
r. X. BONNIE have been asked
to go to Pearl Harbor next Thursday
and make moving picture film of
the cruiser California entering the
lochs.
! JACK LUCAS-It certainly was a
fine trip that we made on the Kilauea.
AS historian it will keep me busy for
some time. Frank Thompson is some
automobile driver.
DIR. PRATT was fortunate in
being able to return in, the Kilauea. J
meant to catch the Claudine and
come home via Kahului and Lahania,
but changed the program.
E. A. MOTT-SMITH-The Hilo peo-
pie are either with you or against you.
If they have a kick they tell you so,
and then you can explain. | have
found them good workers.
f. A. MOTT SMITH-Dr Mccoy is
an extremely interesting man to talk
with. He has had wide experience,
which should stand him in good
stead during his stay in these islands.
L. L. McCANDLESS- There ought
b, l., 4 IL
side of the Queen Emma property
where they are building a theater to
seat over 1900 people, right up to the
line of the street.
CAPTAIN SINIERSON-It might
seem strange, but my visit as captain
of the Kilauea was the first time
have ever been in Hilo I have been
running around these islands for
many years, too
w. H. McINERNY-Haw is more
than niggardly in its support of pro-
motion work, compared with what
some states and cities are doing. The |
people here put up not more than
$4,000 for work that needs at least
$4,000.
COLLECTOR COTTRILL-The sea
got two strikes in on me pretty early
on the Kilauea, and the seasick rem
edy didn't avail me much either. The |
trip was worth more than a passing |
attack Of seasickness could discount, |
though.
]. LIGHTFOOT-While in Kona
attended a Roman Catholic church |
and found wrigglers in the holy
water. Would it not be we'll to advo-
cate the prompt destruction of all
Roman Catholic churches in these
islands?
p. M. Pond think that the filling 1
in of my swamp lots at Waikiki win
prove a good proposition from a bust
ness standpoint, as well as prove
benefit to the district. The banana
stalks that are being dumped in by
the board of health won't do any
harm
J. A. KENNEDY-The trip that we
made across from Kailua will now
demonstrate that tourists will he
quite safe in taking the round trip
from Honolulu. They can go to Ka-
waihae by the Kilauea, say. Leave
her there and motor to Kona for the
first night, to Waiohinu the second |
night, and be at the volcano on the
third night, and then catch the Mauna
Kea for Hilo. OF course, the trip
could be reversed by taking the
Maupa Kea and coming back in the
Kilauea.
DANIEL LOGAN-Every now and |
