get TOGETHER
SAYS ANDERSON

Mr.. f.. j. Anderson, Pacific Coast
agent for Apollinaris waters, was the
guest of honor at the lunch of the
Honolulu Adj Club today, and while
he gave the club very interesting
talk on advertising and the methods
used by his company, he was so filled
with enthusiasm for Hawaii that he
could not keep off the subject of pro-
motion.
Il have read much of Honolulu and
the Hawaiian Islands, yet struck
nothing that begins to give one a
good idea of what you really have.
Suffice it to say that realize to the
fullest degree that your beautiful
country has been grossly misrepre-
scented and pardon me for frankly
saying that you areno taking advten-
tag of what won have and are S. lore
on publicity.
mo doubt you have heard of the
Seattle spirit, and let me te you
that Seattle spirit consists of con-
tinual pulling together. Now Seattle,
while progressive, and the State OF
Washington, have much to be proud
of they have no such wonders as your
volcano, your equabie tropical eli
mate. your fields of pineappies and
sugar plantations, etc., ETC.. which are
all SO interesting, so distinctive and
so interesting.
IF you >people in Honolulu had
Seattle spirit you would be building
new hotels and be- wondering what to
do with the influx of visitors from all
parts of the world, many of whom
would eventually join you for good.
/ might also say if Seattle had the
things up there to exploit and boost
that you have here they would have
city of New York's size because
they get the travellers and keep them
as does Los Angeles. That city is go.
ing ahead in wonderful way as a
result of the pulling together and
boosting, and the day is not far of
when acreage within twenty miles oil
the center of Los Angeles will be a
thing of the past and the whole coun-
try divided into small holdings. Yet
they have nothing the best of you ex
cepting distance and that is not an
unsurmountable barrier.
Get together, gentlemen, band
your Gibbs, whether social or com.
mercial, and all hustle all the time
for your city and your country"

KILONIS CAPTURES
HARD-FOUGHT BOUT
Greek Champion Defeats Montana
in Fast Wrestling Match.
Will Meet Turner.

Wrestling fans of the District were
treated to one OF the best bouts Of the
season last night at the Gayety Theater,
when John Kllonis, Greek middle-weight
champion, succeeded in throwing Louis
Montana. the Italian title holder, in two
straight falls in one of the hardest
fought and toughest matches ever wit
messed in this city.
Coming to the center of the mat with
rush, the grapplers met with crash,
and from then on the bout was fast and
furious. Kilonis proved a wonder with
his feet and legs, time and again putting
Montana all but down in this maner; but
the sturdy Italian was too strong for the
Greek title holder, and Il was not until
after forty minutes of the hardest kind
OF work that Kilonis succeeded in pinning
hontano's shoulders to the mat with q
head, scissors, and body hold.
In the second bout Montana was caught
mapping, and Kilonis gained the fall in
ten minutes with an arm lock and head
hold
Joe Turner. claimant Of the middle
weight championship of the world, was
challenged by Kilonis, and after side
bet was posted, agreed to meet Kilonis
at the Gayety Friday night. Turner had
to cancel bout in Bristol, Tenn. to meet
hilonis. This bout will be for the entire
purse and a side bet of $500, winner to
take ALL Pat O'Connor has been agreed
upon as the third man on the mat, as
he gave entire satisfaction to Kilonis in
the bout last night

SPRING ARRIVES
In MODEST STYLE
Vernal Season Is Given a Rather
Chilly Reception at 6:21
o'clock Yesterday.

Gentle spring made its formal and
official appearance yesterday. 1t ar
rived precisely at 81 O'Clock in the
evening. 1t was a chilly reception which
1t received in Washington. The weather
wizard had predicted that II would rain.
The elements did have respect and con-
sideration enough to hang back until
later in the evening. But II was cloudy,
and II was also chilly.
For remember, nearly everybody had
his overcoat packed away for the sum
mer. To-day Will be the first complete
spring day of the year. Yesterday could
hardly be called the 1rst spring day,
for spring didn't arrive until sunset.
The Weather Wizard was sorrowful
last night when he announced with tears
in his eyes that IT will surely rain to-
day. Yesterday he said II would shower.
To-day he says il will rain. And more
over. II will be much colder. A snow
storm is rushing eastward upon the city.
There may possibly be a little snow
here to-day, but the weather man would
not swear as to that part OF the pro-
gramme.
At IL o'clock last night. when the
Weather Wizard was discussing meteor
illogical conditions. the mercury was how
ering around the IS mark. 1t is be-
lieved that the temperature this morn
ing will be as low as 8.
