,av il PV A 'Q -gi' Ni x ff, 6 Many of us expected Honolulu to be more Hawaiian in character. The many tourists and their influence appears to have blotted out many of the old customs and traditions of the Hawaiian people. One must look far to find the original version of the hulu dance for instance. Also one does not see as many Ha- waiian people as he would expect. However, the islands of the Hawaiian group still possess the famous tropical and exotic air, which for centuries has made them a tourist's paradise.
