HAWAII DOOMED
IN VARIOUS WAYS
Islands Have Press Agents, BIG
and LittIe-TraveI This
Way Will Be Big.

"Hawaii is being advertised abroad
just now as il has never been adver-
tised before, and the coming tourist
seasons, for the next few years, are
bound to be big ones" says John D.
McGrew manager of the Crossroads
Bookshop, who returned yesterday
from the mainland, after several weeks
of travel, during which he attended
both the Chicago and Baltimore ma
tional conventions and toured the main
publishing cities of the East. ordering
new stock Cor his Honolulu business,
81 come back to find Honolulu already
full of visitors, with practically every
hotel and boarding house filed" he
says, "and now | am wondering what
will be done this winter when the
real travel sets in.
'Duke Kahanamolu is certainly adj
vertising Hawaii, for one thing. Ev-
erywhere l went in the East l found
people talking of his wonderful swim
ming aud the Hawaiian Islands that
produced him. Then, just at present,
the eastern papers are being kept busy
printing what Treasurer Contling has
to say about Hawaii. But these-twe
are only starters on the number of
press agents Hawaii has now. In Wis
iting the big publishing houses | find
that Hawaii and the Pacific have be-
come the popular subjects for short
stories, romances, travel books and
poetry. Many of the biggest publish
ers have books dealing with Hawaii on
their presses or in stock for the fan
trade. Doubleday, Page & Co., OF
Philadelphia, for instance, are just is
suing book to sell at $3.50, titled
South Sea Memories by John La
Fargo, which deals for the most part
with descriptions of Honolulu. And
that is only one of score of books
that will be on sale all over the coun'
try this season to boost Hawaii. Tine
public is demanding Pacific stories, the
publishers tell me.
"Then there is 'The Bird of Para
disc, which advertised the Islands to
the extent of hundreds of thousands
of dollars already and which will keep
on advertising Hawaii for years to
come. The original company, which
| played New York for months, opened

company will open in London this fall

In view of the unfortunate circum-
stances which III a way marred tho
annual Labor day celebration last
Monday in Moline. the Tri-City Fedora
ton of Labor, at its regular meeting
held last night in the Industrial Home
building, passed a resolution that the
federation cooperate with the Indus
trial Home associations of the tri-
cities in future observances of Labor
day. The purport of the resolution
will be made known to the Moline as
sOciation at its meeting Monday night.
Inasmuch as all of the organized labor
forces are united in the federation, and
whereas but a small number are con.
nected with the Industrial Home asso-
citation bodies, it is deemed advisable
by the laboring men to make this
change in plans.
OBSERVANCE WILL GO on.
H. Though there are those who will
take no future interest in the celebra-
ton, the vast majority will continue
to participate in labors annual cele-
bration, and except for the change in
director, the program of the day will
be as it has been in the past.

had been stolen by intrepid river

clench their teeth when the Hen has

them, going in an opposite direction,
al a terrific speed OF three miles a

tire length and breadth OF the United

the Hen has been calmly resting Oh
