February 25th, 1915, Thursday
With the usual band concert In the
morning we could take the afternoon
say from $3.50 to 5 o'clock for our
Hawaiian pageant. am in hopes to
have the Kamehameha schools work
this up for us this year and by ap-
preaching them early and giving them
plenty Of time to work up their chants
and other features, feel that We
would be very fortunate if they viii
agree to assist us in having the.

in each instance have missed seeing

I'm the evening intend to again
have the massed band concert in the
Palace grounds and with the bleachers
still in position we could almost af.
ford to throw these open to the pub
lie, as there VIII be no expense what
ever for transportation on this feature
and the public would have no chance
for complaint / am told that by the
time we are ready to put on the Car

troops here, which naturally means
more bands and that means a larger

would like to spend a little more
money on this feature this year, for
Mr.. Willsin, to whom ] have already
written in this regard, has told me
that with a little additional expense
We could make this feature the most
talked of event Of the whole week
It surely would be q great piece OF
promotion work and one the press
would be anxious to work big.
Friday, February 18th, 1s15.-This
is the night that ] have In mind for
the pyrotechnic display. We could
produce this feature on the polo
grounds at Kapiolanf 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. 1t would do away with the
bleaehers as far as the parades are
concerned, but feel that 1t 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.

watch parade. At the park we could
place our bIeachers just as we used
them during the military tournament
and from there give the people q
chance to use them for the pyrotech-

those not desiring to pay for seating

display from the side lines Their
view of the effect would not be as
nice as that from the bleaehers, but
you must remember the Carnival is

public without some return. ] am
waiting to hear from Mr.. Wilson as
to what he has to offer us this year,

is safe to say that with Diamond Head
for background and the wonderful
space with which we have to display
his effects we should get something
pretty fine out Of it.
