ARaoR AND CONSERVATION DAY

The practise now widespread on
the mainland, of setting aside one day
each year as Arbor day, began in Ha-
waii nine years ago. Since then, here
as we'll as elsewhere, the larger move
ment for the conservation and de-
velopment of all natural resources, OF
which Arbor day represents only one
phase. has made great progress. Five
years ago, in consequence Of the quick
ening of the public conscience and in
terest in these matters and the prac-
teal results therefTom in the inaugu:
ration and extension of active work
along these lines, the scope OF the day
was enlarged.
Accordingly, /, hereby designate Fri
day, the goth day of November, 1914,
as Arbor and Conservation Day for
the Territory of Hawaii, and recon-
mend that on that day appropriate ex-
ercises be held in all the schools of
the Territory and that part of the day
be detected to the planting Of trees
and shrubs.
Given under my hand and the Great
Seal of the Territory of Hawaii, at the
Capitol, in Honolulu. this Goth day OF

PROMOTERS WILL
WORK TO CLEAN
WAIKIKI BEACH
Moving Picture Company May
Come to HAWAII for Series
of Films. Says Sam Blair

| Clear Waikiki beach of the storm
| water streams that now prove an eye
sore, Will be the slogan of the Ha-
wall Promotion Committee. The COM
mittee is determined that these
| streams, especially the one that flows
into the ocean alongside of the Ont
rigger Club, shall be diverted in an
undertaking to beautify the beach.
At the meeting Of the committee
yesterday afternoon Charles r. For
hes, superintendent Of public works,
presented map showing the work
necessary to remedy this evil and out
lined his plans for action. 1t is esti-
mated by Mr. Forbes that the ex.
pense necessary to beauttfy the beach
so far as the removal Of these OBJ
nOXious streams is concerned will be
in the neighborhood of S600O. His pur-
pose is TO build a ditch that will
empty the waters into the ocean a
considerable distance Eva Of Fort De
Russy.
Before any action can be taken
Mr.. Forbes pointed out, it will be ne
eessary to secure "a little map OF the
district, entailing cost of about 5000.
AS there is no territorial department
empowered to spend the funds neces.
sary to secure this map the commit;
tee decided TO take the matter up
with the Chamber of Commerce, with
the idea in view of securing financial
assistance from that organization.
Following the arrangement of this
detail the committee will pursue its
policy of removing the dead waters"
from the beach.
