and each afternoon and evening OF the
two days we could have concert
within the building itself which would
attract the idle visitor. The base
ment OF the armory Is specially adapt
and chicken show. while the galleries
about the building are exceptionally
fine for the hibiscus display. Space
could be sold to exhibitors such as
the Pinectar Company, automobile
demonstrators, as well as retail mer-
chants, for Il would give them excel
lent opportunity TO make up some
thing very attractive. While the gov
ernor is not just exactly ayerse to
allowing this money to be used, he
is nevertheless holding back and II
the right parties approached him
feel sure that he would be willing to
come through.

would like to spend a little more
money on this feature this year, for
Mr.. Willsin, to whom i have already
written in this regard, has told me
that with a little additional expense
We could make this feature the most

produces this feature on the polo
grounds at Kapiolani park and by
moving our bleachers on Friday after
the band concert Of the night before
at the palace grounds, We could then
leave them at the park, where the
military tournament is to take place
later. It would do away with the
bleachers as far. as the parades are
concerned, but feel that It would be
better to use our bleachers for the
larger affairs and do without them
for the parades, for we found last year
that the crowds do not care to pay for
seating accommodations especially to
watch parade. At the park we could
place our bleachers Just as we used
them during the military tournament
and from there give the people a
chance to use them for the pyrotech-I
mic display. We played Mr. Wilson
before on a 50-55 percentage. and I
