James Woods and Hd,Uoii

JAMES WOODS of the Hotel ST. Francis came
d down to Honolulu from San Francisco not
long ago. He had good time here-at least he
said he did-and judging from the appreciative
stories about Hawaii that have been emanating
from him since, we think he did.
Among his other accomplishments, Mr.. Woods
publishes monthly magazine, known as 1.-THE
Annals of Hotel St. Francis" 1t is'not as big as
the Ladies Home Journal as long as the Re
vised Statutes; but it is "some literature all the
same, and each number has something about lla

Roadoplane For
5000 Mile Trip

The 1917 Apperson roadaplane, the
new car announced by Apperson Bros.
Automobile Company. is receiving It's
baptism by a fast run from New York
TO frisco. At the wheel is Claire
Rochester, vaudeville star, who Is
proving that the roadaplane Is an
easy car TO handle She is sure to
establish a woman's record for q
transcontinental trip.
The motive for the trip Is patri-
otto one. for the driver is carrying
a letter from the mayor of New York
to the executive OF the city on the
western shore. The letter asks for aid
in behalf of permanent lighting fund
for the famous Statute OF Liberty In
New York harbor. It is proposed TO
brilliantly illuminate Frances gift to
this country, so it viii stand out as
magnificentfy at night as 1t does
now by day.
The roadaplane, 1t would seem at
this writing; would make the trip In
side Of ten days. At each stop mann
moth crowds gather around. all de
string to see. at one time the first
roadaplane made in this country. More
than once It has been necessary for
the police TO tell the driver to move
ON for the reason that she caused
SUSPENSION OF traffic.
Mechanically. the ear has not given
her q particle Of trouble since she left
New York. She wired the factory
that the gasoline consumption was
unusually low and that the car, in the
high attitudes, did not heat in the
LEASE.
The introduction OF the roadaplane
BY the pioneer makers Of automobiles
has caused discussion throughout the
country. The interest is general,
both from dealers and individuals and
the home office at Kokomo has
been swamped with inquiries for in,
formation.
