TODELAY
OPENING Of BIDS
UNTIL TOMORROW

At meeting of the board of harbor
commissioners held this afternoon the
Honolulu Iron Works was awarded the
contract for supplying the eight-inch
pipe line at Kuhio wharf, Hilo. This
company was the only firm submitting
a bid, their offer being placed at
$1331.40.
Hackfeld & Company, who were
represented at the meeting, stated
that they desired to bid on the line,
but owing to the fact that the Lurline
had been late in reaching San Francis
co no cable message had been re-
ceived here, and no bid could be
made. The company asked that an
extension of time be granted until to-
morrow. Owing to the fact that this
is felt to be a dangerous precedent to
establish, the board members voted
not to grant the request, and the lone
bid from the Honolulu Iron Works
was opened.
Considerable time was spent in the
reading over of specifications from NJ.

DISPLAY BOOKS
AS SUGGESTIONS
FOR CHRISTMAS
Careful Selections Made as to
What Santa Claus Shall
Bring Little Tots

What books shall Santa Claus
bring for the children?
In an attempt to answer this ques-
ton Alright for father, mother, sister
brother, uncle, aunt, and grandparent,
the chfldren's Librarian at the city
library is holding this week the annu.
al exhibit Of children's books, the
christmas exhibit" as IL Is called.
Five separate tables are set in the
exhibition room, and each table rep
resents a different variety. On the
first table are placed all of the class
les that children love so well, such as
'sTreasure Island, Kidnapped" RI
ley's poems, Fields poems, and all
OF the other old fayorites. This table
has high priced books only, books
which are decorated in wonderful
coIors, and bound with the best class
OF bindings.
Next TO the first table is another
table covered with the same, books
as No. !, but in inexpensive bindings.
Though inexpensive, these books
have splendid paper and beautiful
decorations.
Then on table No. 3 come the little
children,s books, with all of the old
stories that every person knows so
well, Little Red Riding Hood" and
"The Three Bears" One feature of
this table is a set of books which
the librarians have rebound, taking
the old worn out books, and making
them new with different covers. Per

part of the story. In the place Of
mick Carter" Diamond Dick" and
others, there are instead good solid

Mathewson. and Ralph Barbour. Well
known authors also write the books
for girls.
Much time has been spent by the
librarians in the selection of these
books, and they have been chosen
with view. TO getting interesting

which are wholesome, and which will
not ruin the child's reading appetite
in later years.
Practically all of the books on ex-
hibition may be obtained at the libra.
ry, just as other books are obtained,
but the primary reason for the ex-
hibit is to help persons who are pom
dering over the question of what

all of the book stores, and persons
