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 f. Il. Bevins who, as director.
general Of the whole thing. is slated
as the Jimmy Dougherty" of Maui.
Mr. Bevins' report is given in another
column
Mr. Baldwin called on w r. Far
rington for few remarks from the
AID Club. The Maui members of this
organization were seated together and
conducted themselves in the proper Ad
Club neutrality-suspicious. manner
Behind the seat of Worth Aiken ap-
peared one of the large AID Club ban
ners that, had been captured during
the last Civic Convention.
Mr.. harrington read a letter from
A. II. Ford, which was loudly applaud
ed and opened his remarks by text
from one of Dan CFawford's addresses:
This enc thing | do" He noted that
this was great advertising text, and
is another way of saying, keeping con-
stantly at II brings success" He urged
that Maui business men in their activi-
ties center on one thing on which they
find they could get together without
overwhelming difficulties. Do that one
thing, and then 60 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 devel-
opment of the tourist crop, which was
certain to be profitable and could not
be upset by any tariff legislation. Ha-
wall mel has many of the greatest
beauties and attractions that the
earth possesses and Maui has a very
large share of these scenic attractions
as well as a climate which cannot be
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 1t 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 Lahaina or the auto ride
around the other side, it made mag
rounded and enjoyable
trip for home or fore;>a 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,
to accommodate the delegates
at pFivtse homes He suggested that
the Ad Club was beginning to talk of
an excursion steamer. He believed s
fiat rate should be arranged for the
delegates so that they would pay their
way. II the local accommodations
gave out, they could live 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
spirit of confidence in tn. future of
Hawaii, belief in ourselves, belief in |
our fellow citizens and an absolute
in the splendid future of
the territory If We will work together
for the common good. 80 f.
