Snyder Gives In- teresting Word Picture, Today’s Luncheon Alaska’s sister Territory, Hawaii, was served well when Clara B. Snyder, exchange teacher, from Maui, T. H, as principal speaker at today's meceting of the Juneau Rotary Club, in the Terminal Cafe,| took the assembled members on a' descriptive jaunt of Uncle Sam's semi-tropical Islands, The population of the Islands, racially, Miss Synder said, was pre- dominatingly Japanese, along with a high percentage of Chinese and Filipinos, and a lesser percentage of native Hawaiians. The white population which includes Portu- guese, and other whites in addition to Americans is in the minorty, Miss Synder said. | Sugar Big Industry Sugar is the number one industry, coming from the many huge plan-| tations on the several islands, pine- | apple growing and canning is the | second industry, according to Miss Snyder. On the island of Maui, which the .speaker called her home and where! she taught, the Territorial schools employ about 38 teachers. Six of | these are white, most of the other: Japanese and- Chinese. A number of the white women on | Maui belong to an active Woman's Club, one of the many functions of which is the administration of the island’s humane society. Sport Fields ‘Two golf clubs, an excellent polo field, where many fine matches, all free to the public are played, ‘many beautiful plantation homes, furnished to the plantation workers along with some of the servants nec- essary to maintain them, by the large sugar companies .are some of the attractions the islands afford. From the summit of Halakala reached by a recently completed road residents of Mauri watched the | voleanic eruptions on the Island of Hawiia, one hundred miles, away, An Hawaiian lei, was presented Rotarian President A, B.
