THE DEGENERATED HULA.

1t is time for Hawaii to get away from the sort
of dancing into which the ancient Hawaiian hula
has degenerated in far too many cases.
Criticism by visitors during the Carnival of some
of these alleged native dances is entirely justified.
They are hybrid results of the importation into Ha-
waii Of the white mans deprayity grated upon the
supposed Oriental dances of Turkey, Persia and
other decadent countries.
If any resident Of Hawaii were to see these
dances on the mainland it is safe to say he would
resent such Misrepresentation of the customs of his
country.
The Star Bulletin knows from the remarks of
many tourists that they were utterly Disguised at
certain of these dances 1t is quite true that ninety
per cent of the visitors want to see the hula, but
few do see it without an uneasy sense of shame.
Does Hawaii wish to be judged by the kind of grotes
que and immoral posturing too often witnessed
now? We think not Nor do We think it necessary
Tor the amusement of the tourists that these degen
crate dances be included on the entertainment
program.
The ancient dances of Hawaii, without the glar-
ingly suggestive eontortions added to emulate the
Little Egypt of few years ago, can be revived
just as the dignifed and picturesque tableaus of
royal courts have been revived Hawaii's annual
Carnival does not gain in attractiveness because
these hulas are staged, nor do the amusement fea
lures throughout the year in which such hulas are
featured gain in the estimation of the majority of
visitors

of that which is of the largest world
interest, child life, and of that which
is peculiar TO Honolulu. the comming
ling Of races, in an exceptional degree.
II note of criticism Is asked, and
is not out of harmony with this honest
appreciation which might be much eX-
tended, 1t seemed to me that your
water pageant was the least satisfac-
tory event of the week. And that not
because It was not beautiful and salts.
flying in itself, but because OF the poor
opportunity which so many of the
people had to see It.
! have no complaint to make for
myself, as mine was enc of the best
seats and my view all that could
fairly have asked. But before sat
down ! wandered up and down, noting
the efforts of the multitudes to get
near the waterfront. efforts which
we're largely vain. Some day it will
be universally recognized that such
spectacle demands something like
equal opportunity for all the people in
their quest to enjoy 1t and profit by 1t.
Twenty years ago Lake Merritt, in
Oakland. was described as "a jewel
in nest Of rags. and justly so. To.
day 1t is one of the most picturesque
and appealing features of all the many
natural beauty spots around San
Francisco Bay. Fifty thousand peo-
PIE could have witnessed such spec.
tacle as your water pageant with en-
tire comfort If it had been on Lake
Merritt.
The Honolulu waterfront today fills
too we'll the description given 20 years
ago of Lake Merritt, and could be
made as beautiful and becoming as
Lake Merritt is today. The problem
is doubtless better understood by you
who are here, but the most disappoint-
ing thing in Honolulu yet Is that
which ought to be one of your chief
charms for the stranger as well as for
the regular resident, your pathetically
and cluttered waterfront.
Yours with sincere appreciation,

LETTERS
THE rREE-cuTTlNe

Editor Honolulu Star-BuIletin.
Dear Sir: Yes, the cutting of the
trees at Kapiolani Park has caused
more criticism than it deserved,
but the attitude of the city engineer
has been SUCH as to bring this aSout.
Why should any official take it upon
himself to destroy public property?
Contracting to cut the trees down
without consulting any one was an act
of vandalism unworthy of an APP
pointed or even elected officer. It
may be best to cut them down, but
surely It was not the duty of any pub
lie official to do it on his own re-
sponsibility. These trees are public
property, and If destroyed by a private
citizen the city attorney would be the
first to prosecute him. II is for otlers.
not the county engineer. to say
whether or not they should come
down.

Keen Appreciation and Some Kindly
Criticism

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Inasmucb as you have asked
your readers for an expression OF
opinion about the Carnival, will yen-
ture a word, though otherwise the fact
that am yet a stranger here would
incline me to less public utterance.
The Carnival as a whole reminded
me Of the small boy who was urged
to stay to dinner at a neighbor's
house. and again and again urged to
have some more Of the ample supply
Of food. At length he gasped out IN
answer to further urging, "No, thank
you, I've had enough such as ii is =
Then realizing he had blundered, he
fastened to add, "but-but-but, it's
better than I expected"
/ shall have to admit that / have
had such surfeit Of carnivals be-
fore coming to Honolulu that | ap.
preached this one with no great zest
for it. Yet / am glad to admit that
1t was far and away beyond my eX.
pectation in It's interest and sugges-
tiyeness.
There are too many features de-
handing appreciation to name them
all here. But to nae the two outstand.
ing episodes of the exhibit as a whole
worthy of particular remark were the
Japanese Lantern Parade and the
Children's Festival at Punahou. These
were altogether unique and excep-
tional and could not be matched any.
where in the world As between
them / would give the preference to
the Children's Parade This was, in
my opinion. and say 1t deliberately,
the most wonderful human spectacle
that ! have ever seen, and both my
years and my travels have allowed me
to see a great number Of very strik-
ing exhibits the world over. But for
beauty of natural background and
setting, and for attractiveness and
comprehensiveness in showing forth
the charm Of. childhood in its most
universal aspects. / can hardly imag-
inc anything SURPRISING it. Indeed,

quest and unless something turns up
the issue has been defeated"
With this Issue defeated new bond
election cannot be held until next year
unless the legislature is prevailed
upon to change the laws so that a
special election can be held.
Murray said today that the defeat OF
the bonds was the worst thing which
could happen to Honolulu as they
were so badly needed. He hopes. how
ever, something may occur to bring
about the improvements as soon as
possible,

LOOKING AHEAD no FurURE cARNNM.s

The 1917 MidPacific Carnival is now history
and highly interesting history, too. 1t was-if we
can Judge by the expressions of opinion far heard
quite the best Carnival Hawaii has ever held
The Star. Bulletin has already pointed out what
others have pointed outthat the mistakes in man
agement. and they were comparatively few, were
due mostly TO the lack Of a permanent administra-
tive system. To overcome that defect, We suggest
that the board of directors be continuing body.
There are nine directors and that seems TO be a
satisfactory number. If each year three directors
sIlould retire and three ones be named the de-
sifable results Of combining experience and new
blood should be secured.
OF the present board several had served in preyi.
Carnival years, and they found their experience
ihen Of inestimable value. should the continuing
<{stem be established, directors would know from
rear year whether or not they were to be with the
board longer, and would be enabled to conceive and
ta ont policies not built up hastily for one Carni
wi. but for several such events.
The present is an excellent time try out the con
Iibuing system With their fine success Of 1917.
ne directors now in Office have the confidence and
support OF the public They can secure the finan.
tial backing necessary nowadays to run the big Car
niyals. They can plan far in advance knowing that

With such Al organization a permanent system
Of administratisc detail could be perfected, and
such a system would eliminate most OF the minor
ronplaints insepafable from the present method Of
