The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1922-09-19

At 1880 o'clock this morning the re-
ception committee composed of Worth
o. Aiken, chairman; John J. Walsh,
vice-president of the Maui Chamber
of Commerce, Judge d. H. Case, coun-
ty Attorney E. r. Bevins, W. A. Bald
win, H. K, Duncan, Lorrin X. Smith,
Maui member of the Hawaii Tourist
Bureau, and j. H. Gray, secretary of
the Maui Chamber of Commerce met
at the wharf and boarded ship on the
first barge accompanied by bevy of
girls whose pleasant duty it was to
decorate with yellow Maui no ka oi
hat bands the headware of the visit
ing eXcursionists.
Guests Are Welcomed
Aboard ship Vice-President Walsh
(, introduced Judge Case as the welcom-
ilS speaker. Judge Case bade them
Ayelcome in his opening words and eX-
dressed regret that the visit would be
so short and the hope that they would
see much in the little time they would
be here on this occasion that would
interest and please them so that they
7 would come back on later occasions
when they could remain longer, see
more of the many things had to show
them so that this might be only the
first of meetings which would draw
the people of two communities to-
gether
The speaker told some stories that
amused his hearers and then said that
like persons, so communities could not
get along alone but must work to-
gether and the present occasion was
a coming together of two commun-
ties. The Inauguration of steamship
line perhaps did not mean so much to
Los Angeles as it did to Hawaii. Los
Angeles had waXed great and strong
. through her attractions for tourists.
Hawaii had great attractions but not
the facilities to bring all the visitors
who wished to see them. That short
coming Los Angeles was kindly aiding
to rectify.
Judge Case expressed the wish that
the visitors might see much to their
liking and that in the recollections of
Hawaii they would carry away with
them the Visit to Maui would have at
least small place.
Sight Seeing Trips
Then the visitors came ashore and
found places in the waiting cars, trans
portation arrangements being in
charge of c. E. Morris and f. R. Bev-
inS.
At noon the visitors were expected
to begin arriving at the Grand Hotel
for luncheon and be accommodated as
fast as they arrived
