Directly facing the entrance was a
box-like affair which attracted little
attention until explained except from
those Gin the know" 1t was a fumi-
gator such as any farmer could make
for himself and make. cheaply: 1t was
built so as to be air tight. Between
the paper covered walls and the in
terror room was a wire screen and
running ND to roof through the center
were perforated pipes so that the gas

Although in the agronomy tent and

most attractive features in this most

ART DISPLAY IS
HIGH STANDARD

i
Art, art works and ware. fine paint
ings and drawings were well represent
ed at the Maui fair. Best of all, much
of the work was distinctive of the
islands. There we're paintings of the
volcano, coastwise and mountain
scenes, inlets and streams, landscapes
and all of Hawaii scenes.
Housed in the lower story Of the
gymnasium building there was an ex-
cellent art display. Hanging on the
walls and well shown we're works that
were filled with charm for admirers
of several schools of painting. Some
were distinctly impressionistic and all
were worthy of study. 1t was an ex-
hibit that woull be hard to equal and

wealths. -

BEAR SHARE OF
ENTERTAINMENT
Swaying Lanterns, Wonderful
Floats Make Parade BIG
Feature of Fair

Had the japanese Of Maui con
tributed no more 10 the success OF the
fair than by preparation for. participa-
ton In and conduct of the lantern par
ade On the second evening they would
have done their part. They furnish
ed one Of the most attractive events
In three days and nights that were
replete with pleasing features
Darkness fell upon the second day
CT the fair, Children-s Day. Even
as the more belated little folks were
turning homeward through the streets
OF Waiiuku lights began to appear
here and there. They were not ordin-
airy lights. They nodded and swayed.
they bowed and they waved. they
danced and swung hither and thither.
At first they we're few but they grew
in number and rapidly multiplied until
the streets seemed to be filled with
myriads CT fiuttering mammoth fire
flies.
Out Of the darkness came weird
sha3es and these and the dancing,
Euttering fireflies all turned in the
same general direction. The fireflies
were the lanterns on rattan sticks
carried by the walking Japanese. The
great, weird shapes were decorated
automobiles and floats All alike were
going TO the forming point of the Jap
anese parade.
1t is said that few can vie with
and none excel the Japanese in devils
ing and designing decorative floats.
This is an assertion that the Japanese
Of Maui corroborated during the Ian
tern parade There were more than
q dozen floats that had each some
thing to commend them and were de-
serving Of high praise There was
enc cherry blossom affair, tree
heavy laden with pink blooms and
lighted and frightened with delicately
shielded lights. Further on there was
an immense parasol, 1t revolved upon
its handle and from each rib of the
frame hung and waved, as the whole
thing whirled, japanese lanterns.
From out the center there constantly
shot heayenward balls Of colored fire
and stars of changing hue as the fire
works scared upward. There was an
immense eagle on one float, a lobster
on another. on yet another a tiger.
And these we're but some of the many
When the parade started as one
looked hp the street it was bit of
Maryland that met the eye Far UP
the street were the bobbing, bowling,
dancing courtseying lights. And then
came the floats, one after the other
and each exciting wonder and adj
mirstion. Thus the parade wound in
and about the streets of Wailuku, to
and into the fair grounds where the
mass broke I'D into sections and into
groups. The Japanese had done their
part. They had given to Mauites aid
to visitors alike a sight long to be re-
menbered by all who had looked upon
It.

who would have been glad to go out
Of their way to find 1t and found by

About 500 splendid exhibits OF old
Hawaii formed the fair museum Of
antiques. There were fine calabashes,
tapas, spears, tools. hooks. nets, orna-

exhibit that was well worth all the

so many other things to see and so
