PlNEAPP|LED DAY
Will BE PUSHED
10 PROMINENCE

a Pineapple Day is again to the front.
The Hawaii Promotion Committee has
started 4 campaign for Pineapple Day
for 1910 and is already working on
plans for publicity for the big day.
Members OF the committee will con-
fer with the pineapple packers, and
others interested to arrange date for
the day.
An unusual amount of publicity was
given Hawaii last year during the
Pineapple Day campaign, and main
lahders including President Wilson
feasfed on the Hawaiian product on
the day set aside for King Pineapple.
Many OF the leading business concerns
OF the mainland sent out circulars,
posters. etc., featuring the Hawaiian
product.
Hundreds of replies we're received
from congressman, governors, educa-
tors, journalists and leading men in
all walks of life stating that they
would gladly assist in paying homage
to king Pineapple. Stories were writ
ten regarding the product. and poems
were also penned telling the story OF
the hold the pineapple had on the
American public.
1t is expected that Pineapple Day
viii become one of the day of days in
the United States, and this year the
plans will be followed to make it
greater success than last year In
addition to the personal letters sent
out another unique publicity campaign
will be instituted. Last season Pine
apple Day was held on November 10.
and It is expected that the celebration
will be held about the same date this
year.
