T is the earnest wish of the Matson Line that passengers shall secure the fullest possible enjoyment from their voyage. We do not wish to leave anything undone that might add to your pleasure and comfort. The entire staff aboard this ship is eager to serve you. Ever since the late Captain William Matson’s first ship carried its first passengers from San Francisco to Hawail forty-five years ago, courtesy to the traveling public has been one of the outstanding features of Matson service.

Bon Voyage! Time at Sea By Jean Hobbs, in Western ONOLULU! Fair Haven! The ancient Hawaiians called it that, and those of us who follow in the modern way the Pacific Lane to the Paradise Isles, over which those first adventurous navigators traveled, will know, as they knew, the same charm, the same olamour, the same play-filled days, the same something that brought them back as it will bring you back, perhaps to stay. For Hawaii has not changed. It has progressed, but, unlike almost any other spot in the world, it has not sacrificed its ancient customs, the fine heritage of an outstanding race of old, as the price of its progress. It has added modern hotels, particularly in its chief city, Honolulu, and it has all of the modern conveniences of the Advertising most forward-going city of the mainland, but it has something that no other city in all the world has— the Hawaiian spirit — that ‘‘some{hme that pulls’ at.~your heartstrings always when you hear ‘* Aloha Oe,’’ that ‘‘something’’ that seems to reach out and greet you as the ship rounds Diamond Head, and that ‘‘something’’ that will fill your eyes with tears and your heart with longing when it comes your time to go and round your neck a friend hangs a fragrant garland of flowers, the lei.
