The Outdoor Circle is making great
progress in their efforts to bcautify
Honolulu and its surrounding country,
Much has been said and great deal
accomplished but. there yet, remains
an untold amount of labor and thought

the hope Is that algeroba will be the
tree selected and as an underground,
either bouganvillea or some other low
growing shrub. Another hope of the
Circle is a beautiful gateway as out
lined by Mr.. Milford, Robinson on
King and Kalakaua avenue. The
