It Pays to Advertise
1T is about time that the people
of Honolulu woke up, and realized
that we have a real institution with
real football team and track team, y
said another one of the boys. The
best known students at Harvard are
football players; Walter Ecksersall
put Chicago on the map; Colgate
wasn't heard from until they organ
lied a team which could down Yale,
and this holds good with every insti-
tuition of Importance on the mainland.
So we are going to go after football
honors in Hawaii, and do a little ad-
vertising Of our own"
Those who have followed athletics
in Hawaii are bound to recognize the
love which the students Of the school
have for the College of Hawaii. The
college is first, last and always with
them, and the student body which
has grown from a handful to 100, has
this spirit instilled in them. When
the college plays football, there is al
ways a band of rooters on hand to
cheer for the eleven.

Use to this year, and the students Of
the school get behind the various &C
tivities, there ought to be mere in

and fewer students from the scholas-
tic institutions will leave for the main
land.
