that, beginning Sunday next, the eve
ming band concerts will be discon-
tinued through the cold weather, and
there will be given only one concert
per week, Sunday afternoons.
These open air concerts have been

played to large concourses of ap-
preciative listeners.
The Twenty-ffth Infantry Band is
one of the finest musical organizations
in the army, and, for that matter, in
the country; and Lieut.. Leslie King is
an expert in the delicate work OF con-
Quoting a band. Both the officer and

HAWAII TO REAP
TOURIST CROP
Omitted Press Service)

Omitted Press Service)
HONOLULU, T. H., Oct. q The
Hawaiian islands are preparing to
reap the tourist crop which was
failure during the war on account of
inadequate transportation.
BY the first of the year, it is pre-
dicted confidently, the rush will be on.
A tourist bureau has been or
ganized to help handle the expected
influx and to aid intonursing it into
a record harvest. Hotel managers
are polishing up their organizations
and everyone in the islands is looking
forward to the future with joyous an
ticipation.
"It will be a matter of years before
Europe is able to win back it's place
as the vacation land for Americans" !"
according to Walter Rounseval, man.
ager of the Hotel Alexander Young
in Honolulu.
"With that condition continuing, the
tourist looks to the west. He comes
to California and then he still looks
west. The Orient is impossible. Ac-
commodations there are entirely lack
ing.
$50 Honolulu becomes the logical
place for the vacationist who wants to
get into a foreign land. In Hawaii
he finds the lure of the Orient and the
Stars and Stripes still flying. And
the wonders of the South Seas are
thrown into the bargain.
