NO better authority on the tourist
Mr.. Newman. He has visited every
country on the globe. He has done"
Europe, Africa, Asia, South America,
North America, Australia and many
parts OF each. Just now he Is return
ing from trip which has included
the philippines, China, Japan and
Korea, gathering material-literary
and p1ctorial-for q series of lectures
In the large cities of the mainland. He
is one of the few dominant figures in
the travel-Iecture field today and he
Is an especially keen critic Of the nat.
ural attractions of countries.
Mrs. Newman and Mr.. Newman's
photographer, Charles dEmery of
Stamford, Connecticut, are quite as
enthusiastic about Hawaii as is the
noted lecturer himself Their days in
Honoluins WaikJh beach, the trip
around Oahu, and their days on the
Big Island have added hourly to this
enthusiasm. And it is this point of
Hawaii as summer resort to which
they. recur again and again. Il Nowhere,
they say, can traveller find climate
and surroundings so equable and beau
tIful in summer as Hawaii. - |
Mr.. Newman Is Tlrm believer in
advertising. In his own work, book
lets, scdras, news .sapeI ADVERTISING and
other factors take hfs advertising APP
preparation annually up into four fig
ures, Consequently he Is q thorough
believer in systematic publicity to
secure patronage for attractions and
he Is absolutely convinced that every
dollar hawaii spends in progressive,
consistent, wIueawaxe advertising or
the lslanas IS bound to be returned
ana more Than retarned-in tourist
traue profits. And anyone who talks
WITH nlm ten minutes is convinced OF
the same thing.
In his lecture work Mr.. Newman will
make a pont OF Haws1is attractions
III suuI:lier as well as In winter. And
hawaiI may be sure that when he
leaves Honolulu late this week for the
mainland lie is carrying away many
good IN iiressions. <..> ...

delight to the party. On Sunday night

OF the great pit. Halemaumau was in
splendid Iorm At one time Is sep
sllate ava fountains were showing and
the vast fields made magnificent
DISPLAY. Photographer d'Emery stayed
at the volcano AL night, returning to
tAe volcano House after s this morn
ing, brimIul OF true artistic entnnsi-
asm. He had .aken not only large
nlmber of still-life views Sunday at .
ternoLn Tut 500 teet of movie" films
last night. These will be shown in
the coarse of Mr.. Newman's lectures.
The Newman party is returning this
afternoon en- the Mauna Kea and will
