But here we've had the nerve to attempt it with a prinling press, a news camera, treasure sland aps, and four colors. Advance copies of this new Story of Hawaii are being sent o members of the Fourth Estatc who have thown interest in the Hawaiian Islands. * * * And of course if you put it in type, we won't be mad! The beautiful book presents an authentic picture of the romantic islands out in the mid-Pacific. It is in colors depicting the gorgeous yellows, greens, blues, reds and pinks that abound in Hawaii. The pages are decorated with illustrations of human-, animal-, sea- and plant-life, all highly colored and true to a highly colored country.

The action of the Executive Council of the Am- ‘m-;c.m Federation of Labor in giving formal ap- |proval to the proposal that the United States join |the World Court shows the irresistible trend of | public opinion. Notwithstanding the clamor of jingo ‘newspapers and of self-seeking politicians desirous of receiving the publicity which that branch of the press can give them, sentiment supporting the great tribunal is increasing. The isolationists and the irreconcilables will not cease their din, but their number dwindles. The American Federation speaks with greater authority for labor than the | pretended leaders in Congress and the noisier sec- |tion of the press speak for the general public. America’s adherence to the Permanent Court of International Justice hangs upon the acceptance of a reservation now before the Senate. Every American right has been safeguarded, every con- tingency provided for; yet a handful of Senators, encouraged and abetted by a group of newspapers, refuses to act or to permit a majority to accept the protocol. Various subterfuges have been em- ployed to postpone a vote, but the most effective has been the pressure of other business. When | matters of nearer consequence are in the balance, |the majority has not deemed it expedient to invite a filibuster or to engage in protracted debate. | By giving support both morally and financially |to the World Court, America could advance the cause of permanent peace immeasurably. We have entered into treaties to eliminate war as a means of settling international disputes and it now remains to turn to the only method yet devised of com- posing grave differences according to law and jus- tice. If America should join the Court, the world could settle down to the pursuits of peace and re- gain its prosperity. The American Federation of Labor has set a worthy example. Perhaps it will find a way to dis- ability. The book, printed on superfine paper, is from the presses of former Gov. Farrington's Hono- The brochure's text is written in the warm, | romantic spirit that is characteristic. But it must{ be so. Even then, Hawaii must be secen to create | an adequate conception. Once seen, all that you | have heard, all the impressions that you migm( have, no matter how extravagant, vanish and be- | come inconsequential. Your immediate verdict fis | that the half has not been told. It surpasses your imaginings. A few quotations from the book will give an idea of its contents and, perhaps, a half-idea of a part of the truth: Only after you have been to Hawail will you know how difficult it is to tell of its thrills. Your friends will listen, mentally shake their heads, and think you mad, soft, moonstruck. It can't be helped. For Hawail is more than a fleet of islands. It's an emotion, an emotion so unrelated to the work-a-day world that every-day words stumble in telling of it. And even if you could define it, no one would believe you. Then of the trip to Honolulu: Watch the grey sea change to blue, then deepen into indigo. Feel the caress of the warm breeze that has known cocopalms and coral sands. K Watch green Molokal, then Oahu, rise out of the sea. Then around Diamond Head into another country. Honolulu harbor! Your shipmates linc the rail. There's Honolulu! Palm-fringec. it cjmbs up the mountains that cup it, runs back into narrow green valleys. Waikiki, with its great hotels. Cottages along the shore. Excited speed boats, outriggers encircle the ship. Half- pint sea sleds slap the waves and bounce like crazy flying fishes. Tugs draw along- side. Newspapermen, photographers, half Honolulu, it seems, boards your ship. You see your first flower lei. Some one hangs a three-foot string of ginger blossoms around your neck. You hear tMe band, the shouts, the waving crowds. You know one meaning of Aloha. The welcome is real. Diving boys swarm in the emerald bay. A dime hits the water, after it a brown body flashes, shiny wet. Alongside. DNown the gang plank, past the band, through a rainbow of races. You're in Hawali. Then through the town, lei women, Hawaiian, Japanese flappers, laughing, chattering. Flowering trees, golden shower tree:, flame trees. A strange land! The charming book ends with a well known tribute from the pen of Mark Twain, written when he was contemplating & second trip to Hawaii after an absence of twenty years, from which the fol- lowing is an excerpt: No alien land in all the world has any deep, strong charm for me but that one; no other lamd could so beseechingly haunt me, sleeping and waking, through half a life time as that one has done. Other things leave me, but that abides; other things change, but that remains the same. * * I can feel the spirit of its woodland soli- tudes; I can hear the splash of its brooks; in my nostrils still lives the breath of its flowers that perished twenty years ago. BOOK SALES INCREASING. The book industry has begun a strong recovery from the depression, according to the New York ' Times.

(Seattle Post-Intelligencer The Olympic Loop Highway, opened this week, is perhaps in all the world the first highly improved primary road which completely encircles a moun- tain range. Strictly speaking, the Olympic Mountains do not make up a ‘“range,” there being no axial arrange- ment or disposal of the peaks and ridges in a “rod” or definite line. This vast mountain jumble would be more accurately described by the term “massif.” Rising from the Pacific Ocean on the West, the Strait of Juan de Fuca on the North, Puget Sound on the East and the low, rolling hills and valleys between Olympia and Grays Harbor on the South, the mountains stair-step upward to Mount Olympus, roughly in a central position, where the “massif” reaches an elevation of nearly 9,000 feet. ‘The mass is cut by deep valleys, streams flow- ing southward, westward, northward and east- ward. The area includes some of the least-known sec- tions of the United States. The most northwesterly part of the Union, it is, apparently, the “last frontier.” It would not be quite accurate to say it is un- explored, yet in great portions of the peninsula the touch of the explorer has been light indeed. |list of books is far superior in quality to any similar They say there is a growing popularity for books of biography, economics, phil- international relations and novels of “sub- Julige Thomas C.

The new $10,000,000 highway's first appeal will be to the tourist, to whom it offers access to one of the most scenic regions in America. Later, the road will serve to open up a storehouse of wealth heretofore largely locked up by lack of trans- portation. It will be a great asset to the State. Cannot Draft Coolidge. (Seattle Times.) Frederick H. Gillett, former Speaker ‘of the House and former United States Senator from Massachusetts, says Calvin Coolidge would not take the Republican nomination for the Presidency if it were offered. That estimate of Mr. Coolidge is, without doubt, correct. When he said, “I do not choose to run in 1928, he meant from then on for at least a couple of terms. Also it is well known that talk of drafting Mr Coolidge comes from political enemies of President Hoover. s When depressions are done with forever, and every citizen can stay on the job as long as he delivers the goods—then it will be time enough to talk about the individual's duty to take care of himself. Just now that kind of talk is not very convincing.—(Anchorage Times,) RS In Wisconsin real beer is said to be selling at five cents a glass, and the free lunch, with roast chicken, roast duck and fried perch, has been restored in many places.
