ScOfieId Barracks.
Honolulu, H. T., Feb. 10th

Honolulu may consistently DE
called the Paradise of the Pa
cific,a but if certain war depart
ment measures are carried out
this cluster of isolated islands will
soon be a more war like Eden
than the original one.
Already there are the follow
ing fortified places on the Island
of Oahu, of which Honolulu is
is the principal city and capital
Of the territory; Scofeld Barracks

terry of the 1st Field artillery

Head, garrisoned by Marines.
Engineers, Signal corps and coast
Artillery. In addition the en-
tire End Infantry and two more
Batteries of Field artillery will
soon arrive in Scofield Barracks,
thus making the Hawaiian
Islands a formidable stumbling
block in the event of an Oriental
invasion.
When it is remembered that
Oahu contains only 600 square
miles and that the population is
something under 100000 it may
be clearly seen that not onlyssare
the Islands we'll protected by a
strong fighting force, but in ad-
dition are we'll garrisoned for
use in case the Panama Canal or
Pacific coast are menaced by any
pugnacious foreign force.
Scofield Barracks, is situated
in the healthiest part of the
Island and, from a Calvary point
of-view is the ideal spot for drills
and manouveres on account of
the miles and miles of terrace.
The only higher parts of the
Island are occupied by mountain
ranges which form a barrier to
the winds from the ocean behind
them and form a perfect water
shed for the water supply reser-
weir at their base.
