Making PRIMO PALE

A Hawaii Industry

Honolulu has the best beer in the world—because Honolulu has the best facilities for producing the best beer in the world. Primo Pale is the product of the

HONOLULU BREWING AND
MALTING COMPANY

Island consumers demand good beer, and no other brewing company found in the celebrated breweries of Milwaukee, together with Charles G. Bartlett, for many years manager of the Honolulu Brewing and Malting Company, belongs the credit of giving the island of Hawaii this most modern brewery and the highest quality of beer produced there. To prove this statement—

Preserving time

and a cool kitchen

Make canning time a real pleasure this year by using a good oil cook-stove. It concentrates a steady, controlled heat directly under the utensil. Your task is shortened and your kitchen is kept cool, clean and comfortable.

To insure best results, use only Pearl Oil—the clean-burning, uniform kerosene—refined and re-refined by a special process.

Sold by dealers everywhere. Order by name—Pearl Oil.

[It is interesting how pear? peach? lemon? preserving turned into guava jelly making here! And also, notice how in America it seems the product advertised here was “Pearl Oil,” but here in Hawaii nei, it was “Star Oil.”]

Ke Kau Guava ame ka halekuke oluolu

Guava Season and a cool kitchen

The thing that makes making guava jelly truly enjoyable this year is the use of a good oil stove. It will make the heat appear right beneath the pot. Your work will be lessened, and your kitchen will remain enjoyable, clean, and cool.

For the best results, use only Star Oil—the clean burning oil, the uniform kerosene [aila kaulike] that is refined and refined again, using a special process.

It is sold everywhere oil is sold, in cans and drums. Ask for it by name—Star Oil.

J. B. ENOS (Enoka)

CANDIDATE FOR SUPERVISOR

As a Republican candidate in the primary election.

John B. Enos is one of the candidates running for the position of supervisor [lunakiai] in this election season; he is not a stranger before you, O voting people of this county. He ran as a supervisor candidate in the last season and lost, but that is not something that made him step backwards; your support is greatly sought after in this primary election.

He was born in Makiki and educated at Royal School in Kehehuna, and graduated from that school; and he was married to one of the fine blossoms of his homeland, and he is working at his own painting business with only Hawaiian employees. This shows his true Hawaiian-ness, and his love for his fellow Hawaiians. Don’t forget him as the candidate for this coming primary election.
