| There is another kiosk in the center
OF the aquarium, but it is passed un-

by living creatures.
Surf-riders in Statuary.
Passing out at the opposite side OF
the aquarium. one pauses to rest on
seat at the base of a wonderfully
beautiful group of surf-riders by Mr..
Gordon osborne. This group, done in
brown clay. represents three figures
! gracefully balanced and poised on
surf-boards, their hair blown by the
wind, their arms charmingly out
stretched. a happy radiance to their
faces. Two children have fallen into
y the billowy sea and their happy faces
smile upward toward the riders more
! fortunate than they. This is group
of which Hawaii may we'll be proud

| Old Hawaii Expected.
Although those who have heard so
much of Hawaii and her attractions
are usually trifle disappointed at the
lack of exhibits, and feel that some
thing more is wanted in the building.
all are unanimous in their praise of
what is there, and feel more relieved
when they realize that certain condi-
tons made exhibits impossible by, the
strict rules and regulations of the ex.
position authorities, these regulations
applying not only to the Hawaii build.
ing but to all other buildings as well.
But 1t seems that in reality the old
Hawaii is what they all expected, a
modern Hawaii not conforming to
their general Impression.
on the main office is the private
office of the commissioners, the last
room in the building, which in turn
opens on to the portico. In this room

private business connected with the
building Is transacted and where call
ers on the commissioners are received.
