PROF. SHIGA TO
BOOST HAWAII
Is Distributing Literature in
Japan-ManIIa Displays
Interest

The popularity of the Hawaiian
Islands as winter resort is certain
ly growing, according TO the number
OF letters that are received by Secre,
tarN Wood. of the Promotion Com
mittee, on nearly every boat that
touches this port. both from the
mainland and from the Orient. ask
ing for Information about Hawaii aud
requesting literature Of the Islands.
The direct results of Walter G.
Smiths lecture tour are being brought
Cut by the number of people in the
Northwest who have written for in
formation and literature or who have
stated definitely that they or some
OF their friends would visit the Isl.
ands during the coming winter.
In recent letter to Secretary
Wood, the manager of the Imperial
Hotel of Tokyo states that Professor
S. Shiga, who recently made lee
ture tour in California and spent
some time in Honolulu, is to be the
host at a large reception and meeting
at the hotel at which there will be
present five or six hundred leading
business men and government Off
ciais of Tokyo and other cities, and
also many others interested in the
friendly relations between Japan and
the United States. 1t is Professor
Shigas idea to distribute literature
from Hawaii among those present
and. through the manager of the
hotel, he requests Secretary Wood to
send him six hundred copies of the
booklet. At the meeting Professe-
Shiga also intepds~to% .il ts.:t'' Various
products st the hands of the Japan
csc III Hawaii, in order to give those
present a more complete knowledge
with regard to Hawaii and especially
an idea OF what the local promotion
committee is doing. When the pro-
lessor returned to Japan he took with
him a small amount of literature, but
he is in need of more to make the
at the meeting complete.
Another letter of interest by Sec
rotary Wood is that from the chair
man of the Manila Merchants Asso-
citation, which states that the associ-
alton is having number of kiosks
made for the advertising of Manila
and the Philippine Islands. One Of
these, composed of various Filipino
woods and containing views of the
Islands, will be sent to the local pro-
motion committee within month.

HAWAII LECTURER 81. !
REPORTS LARGE CROWDS

Writing from Seattle under date
of October 8, Walter G.. Smith, who
is making a lecture tour in the
States, says that one of the most
enthusiastic crowds that he has
ever spoken to during his tour was
group of a thousand or more high
school students in that city. In his
letter he says that the principal OF
the school had limited him to Szone
hour, but that he let him go on for
nearly two hours. On October 4 and 3
he spoke at the commercial clubs.
The promotion committee has re-
ceived letters from Charles Stewart,
a prominent real estate dealer OF
Los Angeles, stating that he and his
family will visit the Islands this
winter, and Agent Fleming of the
Great Northern Railroad at Spokane
writes that after reading the COM
mittee's literature his wife and a
friend will make a trip to the Is
lands shortly. s..
Good results are expected from the
use of the Victor ADimatograph
Stereotrobe which the committee has
placed aboard the steamship Sierra.
The machine is simple and has a
large number of discs of Hawaiian
scenes.
The committees efforts to place an
advertising kiosk in the office of the
Oceanic Steamship company in San
Francisco has met with no encourage
ment. However, Mr.. Wood expects to
place one in the office of the Santa
Fee railroad on the same plan as the
one in the new Southern Pacific Of
flee. The Hitchcock painting of
kilauea in the Pacific Railroad COM
pany's Market street window is one
of the attractions of the Broadway of
San Francisco.
