CONCERNS US.

The San Antonio Light Of last Friday
quoting today because it will make good
reading for Brownsville people although
y was perhaps intended solely for the
benefit of the people of San Antonio. San
Antonio should be an attractive place
for the tourists. The same thing is true
of Brownsville. San Antonio, according
to the Light, frequently announces that
it is out to be "the great tourist town
of the Southwest" The distinction which
San Antonio seeks is a distinction which
nature has thrust upon Brownsville. AS
a seeker for tourist trade San Antonio,
In the matter of its railroads i'm the
matter of its size and city attractions,
has a great advantage over Brownsville
IN its quest for tourist business.
These things are mentioned, not on ac-
count of any possible competition for
tourist trade between the two places.
AS a matter of fact good tourist business
for San Antonio, should mean good bus
mess in the long run fer us. Once start
the northern tourist in this direction
and he will not be content till he comes
all the way.
Yet in order to get this trade we must
get it. Perhaps this sounds rather COM
mOnplace-also common sense. Neither
this business nor any other is going to
drop into our mouths Of its own accord.
Flo which reason we commend to the
attention of our readers what the Light
has to say on the tourist business
III general as well as what it SAYS in
particular to its fellow townsmen as to
their relations to it, and what they have
to do to get it.

PROFIT IN THE TOURIST.

1t may be that San Antonio. taken as
a whole does not realize just what the
tourist business amounts to. 1t may be
that San Antonio does not appreciate
10Y much money the tourists of the
North are willing t. spend. if only they
can find a pleasant place in which to
spend it, and may calculate with some
degree of certainty Oh getting something
in return for the money they throw ar
ound. What follows may possibly give
an idea on this point.
1T is not of coursc to be expected that
san Antonio can attract yachtsmen or
that it can draw to its fond embrace all
the people hereinafter set forth. 1t is
simply designed here to show something
Of the spending spirit that animates
many people Of this country when they
set forth t. have a good time and when
they are on vacation. 1t must be remem-

bcred also that winter spenders are as
free with their money as summer spend
ers."
"All along the northern coasts of this
country. in the summer time, are to be
found thousands, literally thousands of
pleasure boats. They range from the cat
boat up to the luxurious steam yacht. A
fair-sized yacht will cost its owner for
the summer season about $4,000 for sal
aries of its men. This does not include
the cost of operation, nor the mess bills.
There are dock charges repairs, eight
to ten tons of coal a da. and sundry 9th
er things. All told a yacht will cost $5Ot
900 for a summer outside of the cost of
provisioning and entertaining, and that
may easily amout to $50 900 more
MANY of the summer tourists of the
North 90 to Newport. A small cottage
in Newport will rent for $4,000 up to
So 1000 for the summer. If anybody de
sires a really nice house that body must
pay $12 600 to $4,000 for the season.
Newport is probably the most expensive
town in the country, and living eX-
penses are high. Eight hundred dollars
is not high for the monthly meat bill
of a moderately large household and for
his $500 you get never a vegetable.
When Cornelius Vanderbilt is at New
port it costs him $1,000 a month for meat
chickens and fish, and that he is not en-
tertaining. Flowers cost about $1,000 per
month, if anybody has much company"
Then there are the automobiles. and
the wealthy tourist also keeps his hOrs-
es. Anybody who is anybody and
keeps at least four automobiles, and they
ship these machines south in the winter
time. and even to Europe when visiting
the Old World
Now GENES the matter of clothes.
Anywoman who is any figure at all at
Newport must spend at least $4,000 a
year on clothes. The fashionable dress
makers of New York curl their high
priced noses at any woman whose bills
do not run over 5000 a year. Some of
these summer tourists can get a real
nice dress for $1,000 and a better one for
$500. They generally get the better one.
There must be a dozen visiting dresses
that cost about $500 apiece a few ball
gowns that cost about from 5000 to
$1,000. Then there are dinner dresses
that will average about $500 each. At
ter all those things come the many ac-
cessOries to the cOstuming of the fash
iOnable woman. She must nave evening
cloaks moleskin motor coats, tea gowns
in which to take tea. bridge gowns in
which to play bridge. all sorts of chiffon
1ubdubs riding habits, golf suits, tennis
suits, riding hats, motor caps wells and
every gown must have its particular
hat. hosiery and pair of shoes. Then
there are other things"
THAT. in feeble manner. outlines what
the American tourist is prepared to spend
when he or she goes forth to have a good
time. San Antonio may never be another
Newport but she can get a portion of
that tourist money if she will but wash
her municipal face and stop playing in
the dust and mud.

WORK.
At IHECOLLEGE
OF HAWAII

More than three years ago exien-
sion work was organized in the terri
torial college. The main object of
this enterprise is TO transmit in yari-
GUS ways the benefits of the college.
including its library facilities and the
information possessed by the various
members of its staff. to those who are
not in position 10 attend the college
In person or to take part in its regu-
lar exercises The college executes
its objects in this line OF work in
the following ways:
First Short courses. Since 1908
short courses have been held in the
college, generally in the afternoon
and evening, in order that those en-
gagged during the day might attend
The subject covered the whole range
Of agriculture, home activities, santa
ton and health, and conservation and
industry. The attendance at these
short course lessons has been good
Second. Movable schools, by which
conferences held in other towns than
Honolulu This enterprise has not
been followed up because OF the ex-
pense entailed.
Third Classes for teachers.
Classes in botany, zoology. nature
study and kindred subjects have been
offered.
Fourth. Correspondence courses.
This work has probably been more
effective than any method for the dis
semination of knowledge BY ii both
regular studies have been carried on.
in accordance with the needs Of the
correspondent, and also specific qnes-
tionE and problems have been dis
cussed. The subjects that have been
handled in this line of work are soils
end crops, plant life, poultry culture,
practical cooking and zoology.
Fifth. Travelling libraries. Four
boxes of books containing about 25
volumes each have been sent out to
the various schools, one box on each
OF the largest islands. These books
deal with agriculture and home sub
jects and remain in each school for
one month and then are sent on to
the next.
Sixth. Hawaii Educational Review.
Last February the college entered
into cooperation with the department
of public instruction and the Honolulu
Star Bulletin in publishing monthly
journal This journal contains arti-
cles on education, agriculture and
kindred interests and is sent to about
1000 persons throughout the territory
and mainland.
It is believed that extension teach
ing is one of the most praiseWorthy
activities of the college 1t is funda-
mentally good because 1t renders the
college useful to a maximum number
Of people and broadens the service OF
its equipment and facilities.

COLLEGE REVEALED TO
The FRESHMEN GIRLS

Girls of all sizes and ages, members
of the freshman class of Oahu College,

the freshmen girls that curls would
not be tolerated on the day Of initia-
ton, and few of the drawer ones,
who appeared yesterday with the ring
lets and frizzles. were promptly placed
in the hands Of the girls tonsorial

of the sacred regulations. Other
stunts were INDUCED in, and in the
end each unlucky-or lucky-girl APP

her which set forth that awful brand

continued throughout the morning,
with brief respite at noon to allow
the new girls to prepare for the do
ings of the afternoon. At quarter
past three O'Clock, the freshmen girls
formed a parade and We're herded
across the campus to the boarding de-
partment, where. to the amusement
of the upper classmen, they were
obliged to go through various stunts.
When this was over, they were sworn
to absolute secrecy regarding several
time-honored mysteries, following
which they all trooped into the board
ing hall, where they were the guests
of the senior, junior and sophomore
girls at a reception. This over, they
were pronounced first-rate freshmen
of Oahu College
The real fun will be enacted Friday
afternoon, when the freshmen boys
will be initiated. This custom is a.
little more strenuous than that relat-
ing to the girls, as the fellows viii
