FRIENDS OF MAUI.

In the face of the refusal of a small coterie of near sighted
individuals whose vision does not extend beyond the shore line
even to the pier heads of the harbor Of the capital city, known as
the advertising committee" Of the Honolulu Chamber of Com
merce, to endorse the Maui Count! air program as an advertising
medium for Honolulu business houses, sixteen concerns whose head
quarters are in the capital city used fourteen pages of the SO in
such program for display advertising. Had endorsement of the
project been given a larger number of Honolulu houses would have
been approached and it is a safe assertion to say that there would
have been fully twice the number of concerns represented. AS it
is, the showing is highly creditable to our ~neighbor.
Here is the honor list of friends of Maui who did not hesitate
to show their friendship:
Alexander & Baldwin, c. Brewer & Co., American Factors, Ho-
nolulu Iron Works, Honolulu Star-Bulletin, Levers e. Cooke. Royal
Hawaiian Sales Co., InterIsland Steam Navigation Co.. Won IIamm-
Young Co., Waterhouse Co, Hawaiian News & Thrums, Detor & Co.
Trent Trust Co., Bergsrom Music Co., Bank of Hawaii and Allen
Robinson. AS said the list would have been much longer had more
concerns had the proposal presented to them so the foregoing list
does not include all of Maui's Honolulu friends by any means
This is evidenced by the volume of Honolulu advertising carried
in the columns of this paper each issue.
The action of the Honolulu advertising committee7 is reminis
cent of an occurrence at the st. Louis Fair. A restaurant keeper
remarked that he was doing a lot of advertising and proudly pointed
to a number of painted signs he had posted on the interior walls of
his establishment. The concern failed for lack of business before
the exposition had run half its course.
Honolulu concerns want the Islands business kept in the Isl
wise as to hang advertising signs inside of their establishments, to
board up the show windows and then expect passers to turn in and
seek what they may have on their shelves.
An advertising committee should be composed of men who
know advertising, its value and how to advertise and from severa
plumbers to which the Honolulu papers have called attention in the
past few months, 1t is evident the advertising committee of the
Honolulu Chamber OF Commerce has been misnamed.
If there is to be home trading in Hawaii, some friendships must
be established. The action of the sOcaled advertising committee
put the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce and Honolulu business
houses in a bad light on Maui but at least sixteen concerns helped
to remove a false impression.

THE SWIMMING MEET.

In aquatic affairs Maui has been put in a conspicuous place
on the map through the splendid community services of the COM
mittee that arranged and conducted the swimming meet in Puunene
Tank Monday and Tuesday evenings. The meet was so perfectly
staged, so eXcelently carried out and the performance so note
worthy as to warrant far better public support than it received
and 1t Is a source OF genuine regret that the boat house fund for
which they are working so mselfshly did not benefit more from
the receipts. In that respect, the affair was discoura ging but the
men behind 1t are not OF a type to be discouraged. 1t was not
they but Maui itself that was responsible for an attendance far
from that which was deserved.
Results have made it evident that an undertaking of the magni-
tude of the swimming meet cannot be made a thorough financial
success at or about Fair time except in a period of great prosperity
when money is far more plentiful than now. Had the meet been
held before the Fair it would have drawn larger crowds but the
Fair would have lost in receipts prOpOrtionately to the increased
attendance at Puunene. To have held them at the same time
might have benefited the attendance at the tank and might not, if
1t did 1T would have been at the expense of the Fair. There was a
certain amount of money to go round for amusements. The division
disappoints those interested in aquatics.
Coming directly after the Fair and "a day when many Maui
folk drove visitors about the Island, the attendance at the meet
suffered further. People were wearied and some of them were
surfeited with amusement and entertainments, as a result fewer at
tended both nights than would have been the case at another time.
This was considered IN advance of the fixing of the dates but it
was desired to stage a performance for the Press Congress visitors
and so the chance was taken.
From a financial standpoint the meet was not a failure. Dad
Center says the attendance was as good as it would have been at
a tank meet in Honolulu, and from every other point of view it
was a tremendous success.
Those who enjoy sports, most especially those who enjoy aqua
tic sports, will trust that other efforts of the kind will be under
taken here at least twice a year. They have a vision of several
tanks on Maui that will approach in beauty and in usefulness, the
one at Puunene.

THE WAGE CUT.

Varying expressions are heard as to the cut in plantation labor
wages announced by the Planters Association, its wisdom or u-
wisdom.
On the face of it, certainly it does look peculiar to cut wages
at a time when there is an acute labor shortage and the Islands
are trying to secure legislative relief, 1t may be difficult to explain
the situation to the legislators. AS a matter of fact the reduction
