BIG CHRISTMAS
GARDEN ISLAND

The beautiful colored cover for
the big holiday number of The
GARDEN ISLAND. which will be
issued December p Tin time for
the mail leaving that dav), has
arrived and the matter for tn
paper is being assembled as rapid
ly as possible.
The paper will undoubtedly be
the biggest a IL d most beautiful
souvenir of its kind ever gotten
out on this island; and will be the
finest ever offered Kauai people
for mailing to friends abroad.
Owing to the uncertainty at the
time as to the number of papers
that might be required it now
seems likely that too few covers
were ordered; and that the entire
issue will, be sold out long before
December %.
A book has been opened in this
Office in which orders for copies
of the big holiday number are be-
ing entered as they come in; and
these orders will be filled in rota-
ton as they are originally set
down until the papers are exhaust.
ed. Advance orders may be sent
in, either by letter or telephone. In
either case, however, the person
booking the order should state de-
initely h e number Of papers
wanted.
The price OF the beautiful holi-
day number will be fifteen cents,
which will just about cover the
expense of getting it out. 1t will
not be possible to make any reduc-
ton tor quantities.
A brief history concerning this
holiday issue of THE GARDEN
ISLAND will bear repetition. A
little extra "splurac" in the way
of features had been planned for
the issue just before Christmas,
when the Hawaii Promotion Com
mittee started its campaign for
Hawaii Paper Day, or day
when all the papers of the group
should issue numbers carving
write-ups of their respective sec
tons of the Islands. To this re-
quest o f the Hawaii Promotion
Committee, THE GARDEN ISLAND
replied that it was already plan
ming a large paper for December
p, so could not so in on the
Hawaii Paper Day" proposition.
All right, replied the commit
tee, suppose you make your issue
of December % your H awai j
Paper Day number"
And so we will. 1t will be big
paper of and for Kauai. for her
people and her industries; and il
is hoped that il may go to all parts
OF the Islands aad many parts Of
the world.
