in talking care Of the delegations from
| the other islands and also in working
out program OF discussion and inter
change of opinion that will help all
Hawaii
For the presentation OF the outline
OF the program as made thus far by
the committee in charge, Mr. Baldwin
called on +. X. Bevins who, as director
general of the whole thing. is slated
as the Jimmy DOugherty" OF Maui.
Mr.. Beyins report is given in another
column.
Mr.. Baldwin called on w. r. Far
rington for few remarks from the
Ad Club The Maui members OF this
organization were seated together and
conducted themselves in the proper Ad
Club neutrality-suspicious. manner.

ners that had been captured during
the last Civic Convention.
Mr.. Harrington read letter from
A. II. Ford. which was loudly applaud
ed and opened his remarks by a text
from one of Dan CTawfOrd's addresses: .
This one thing | do" He noted that
this was a great advertising text. and
is another way of saying, keeping con-
stantly at ii brings success" He urged
that Maui business men in their actiyi-
ties center on one thing on which they
find they could get together without
overwhelming difficulties. Do that one
thing, and then. go along to the next.
Thus the habit of doing would be de-
veloped and the enthusiasm of success
would very rapidly become contagious.
Special stress was laid on the deyel-
opment of the tourist crop, which was
certain to be profitable and could not
be upset by any tariff legislation. Ha-
wall nei has many of the greatest
beauties and attractions that the
earth possesses and Maui has very
large share of these scenic attractions
as well as climate which cannot be
duplicated outside the Hawaiian
islands Mr. Harrington had Just
made the trip to Haleakala for the first
time and like all others who have Wis
tied the mountain pronounced it the
greatest scenic trip he has even taken,
This trip alone is worth the price, but
supplemented by the ditch trail coun-
try and lao valley and the trail from
Wailuku to Bahaina or the auto ride,
around the other side, il made a mag
nificently well rounded and enjoyable
trip for home or fore'~1 traveller.
Speaking of the Civic Convention,
Mr.. Harrington urged that the topics
be few and the discussion intensive. |
Also that the Maui people should not
attempt to accommodate the delegates /
at privat>, homes He suggested that
the AID Club was beginning to talk of
an excursion steamer. He believed
fat rate should he arranged for the
delegates so that they would pay their
way. If the local accommodations
gave out, they could 1--we on board the
steamer On general principles he be-
lieved the delegates would be better
to pay their way at nominal
figure. and Maui would certainly not
lose any of its reputation fer open
hearted cordiality and welcome. In
closing, Mr.. Harrington appealed to his
audience for the development of a
spirit of confidence in th. future of
Hawaii, belief in ourselves, belief in
confidence in the splendid future of .
the territory If we will work together
for the common good.
Dr. w. L. Naples gave pithy talk
