effort to attract tourists than We have
in the past. and with climate that
is unsurpassed and so many other at
fractions it should be easy to do ii.
What We need to do more than any
thing is to show the tourist that Ha-
waii Is an an the year resort and not
a winter resort, and with such no
tel it would actually be one. s
1t is certain that these islands are
not as well known from a climatic
point of view as they should be or we.
should have far more people here than
we have at the present time. / find
that most tourists are amazed TO find
so good climate and but few Of them
had any idea of the delightful wealth
er that we have here almost all the
year round. And il Is safe to say that
great many old people would pro-
long their lives five to ten years IL
they we're to reside here permanently.
There are men here that have travelled
the world over in search Of a good eli
mate and they say that this surpasses
anything that they have experienced
anywhere and many regret that for
BUSINESS or OIU6E ESdSOHS HldIly VI
them cannot reside here all the time.
Another thing we could do is to
take more interest in the tourist and
newcomers that do come. We could
do as they do in some other cities-w
could form "A Newcomers Club. AMI
make an effort to get them to join it.
in some cities they have men TO meet
all the newcomers and to take them
to an office and make them acquainted
with peoBle of the city. And they are
given badge called the newcomers
badge and they are glad to wear
them. as they are given the glad hand
and kindly greeted by the people Of
the town. The ladies also have what
Is called the Newcomers Day and
on which they call upon all the new
corners of the CITY and welcome them
and tell them of the advantages of
this climate and of many other use
full things.
Something of this kind ought TO be
done. as there are many people that
come here and are never called upon
by anyone. and In consequence. many
OF them get homesick and go awav.

SOMETHING ABOUT THE SCOUT IMMINENT

When James A. Wilder first began talking of
"a Boy Scout organization in Honolulu, good
many people said: .-...
Jimmy Wilder has a new one--iBoy Scouts
or something or other Guess it WON last long.
Those things never do in Honolulu.
THIS s.thing, however, has lasted--it has
grown and endured and in its few years OF ex-
istence the Boy Scout organization here has
given the Youngsters a lot of fun, a lot of prac-
ticaI instruction, lot of sound knowledge of
The kind that goes into the ding Of character
On the other islands the Boy Scouts are be-
ginning to develop If there were d dozen or
so men in Hawaii with Commissioner Nilder's
enthusiasm and ability to impart that enthus-
iasm to his Scout patrols, the territory would
have one Of the most wonderful Scout organiza-
tions in the world.
AS a reimbursement, it now commands in
Eternational respect For instance, in Turkey it
seems destined to play prominent part in EN-.
pire-building. From Constantinople comes the
report that the Boy Scout movement has been
initiated with the swearing in of the troop lead
crs before Enyer Pasha, who, it is understood,
is to be made the Bashbogh, or chief scout Of
Turkey
The movement is part of q farseeing plan to
rejuvenate Turkey On the patriotic side, the
members, with the support of the young Turks,
will try to purge the language of foreign words
which have corrupted the Turkish of the border
into more or less Of d jargon. On the military
and civic side, the government hopes not only
to popularize army service among the educated
classes but to develop initiative and feasibility
among the people so as to compete more favor
ably with western peoples.
It is significant that in the oath taken by the
boys the Arabic word for God, aAllah. has
yielded to the Turkish 'sTengri.n Add names
used in the organization, such as Izdjis for
..scouts, and Oimak Begs for .leaders,s are
pure Turkish The word for leader in official
use has heretofore been hey

THE OLD TIME "YE."


It Was Simply an Abbreviation and
Was Always Pronounced "The."
How does 1t happen that in copying
and reading ancient manuscripts we
call the character our ancestors meant
for the by the ridiculous "ye?"
They said "the" just as we do, and
the only apparent reason for mistaking
the character is that two centuries ago
the letter I'll" was usually written with
a tail below the line and with a raced
top. which made 1t look like our ~"
Then the word was so frequently used
that it was contracted, just as the
word "and" was then treated and con-
tinues to be treated to this day by
many of us.

years ago, the alphabets in our school

BRAZIL AND ITS coLoRs.
Flag Day There Has Now Become the
Great National Festival.

In the republic Of Brazil where the
ruling language is Portuguese and "a
welcoming hand is extended alike to
the European and the Asiatic immi-
grant. great attention has been paid
for some years to the cultivation of a
spirit of patriotism.
The cult of the flag has become more
and more ardent in the hearts of
that people, and the feast of the flag"
each recurring oyember is celebrated
with more and more pomp and enthu-
siasm all over the immense empire and
on every Brazilian ship, wherever it
may be. In Il country noted for its nu-
merous saints days the celebration Of
Flag day has become the true festal
day. st
Commenting on this. lie Bresi Eco
nomique Of Rio Janeiro says: Our
people are imaginative and simple. A
flag undulating in the breeze rs it
passes by to the strains of martial
music, that the officers salute with the
sword and before which everybody un-
covers. speaks more strongly to the
heart Of the people than any dry his
toric date which presents nothing in
the concrete and which TO the ignorant
recalls nothing Of significance"
The lesson of the flag is taught to all
the children Of the schools in Brazil
and on Flag day they gather in the pub
lie squares of the city and town and,
as in the United States, sing patriotic
hymns.--Indianapo News
