MASKED BULL

AT MAKAWELI

A New Year's eve masquerade ball

wrb given last night by tbc hoy.i of

Maknwell in their clubhouse. It was

ln?uly attended by guests from theWhole Island ami some front Honolulu.

Tho stxo of the affair could bo Judgedby llio loni? line of automobilesparked on both sldos of the street In

front of the club.Tho grounds wero lighted with long

festoons of Japanese lanterns whichpunctuated tho brilliant moonlight

with charming effect. Insido ththouse tho decorations were both tasteful and appropriate. Flags of various-kind-

woro draped about the wallstho Stars and Stripes piedominntlngwhile potted plants and fancy lanternscompleted a pretty picture.

Tho costumes were of all kinds andcolors, some of them showing evidenceof considerable thought and carefulattention to detail. Ono would haveto lio a closo observer and a studentof tho dress of various historical perloils to bo able to dellne and appreciatethem nil. However, many of themneeded no definition for tho charm oi

tlioir owners mado any analysis ofcostumes a most distracting effort

To classify ono young lady it wasnecessary to consult works on ornithology. entomology and pomology tofind out whether she was a bird, abutterfly or a peach. If the wingshad been clipped thcro would havebeen no trouble at all. A young shep-

herdess with her stalTspent much time trying to keep In

Several very chic chickens fromChina fluttered about closely pursuer1by would-b- partners, while hero andthoro could bo seen tho dainty maidsof Japan out for a lark, and makingthe most of their liberty. They hadloft all care at homo for not a singleobi had a baby sitting on it. Onelady's costume was a puzzle. In lieuof a better name It might bo calleda sport suit, for she had on what ap-

peared to bo a hunting dross andfishing boots at least thoy wero loiu1

enough for fishing but it mado littledifference, for no amount of "camoullago" could disguise or detract fromono so charming. Tho littlo birdfancier under tho big hat, and thetwo girls witli tho dirigible skirts, theono in white, the other In red, allcame in for a sharo of attention; whilethe dark-haire- d beauty in old roseold rose waist and old roso skirt, oldrose slippers and old rose hoso wasa flower who never had a chanco toadorn tho wall. Littlo Red HidingHood, so labeled for lack of a bettername for her fascinating personalityclothed in brilliant red, was every-where in evidence; while dozens ofothers flitted about in n bewilderingarray of hues and shades.

Tho mon appeared in every con-

ceivable rig from John Chinaman toIleau Urununcl, with yama-yain- a suits,as usual, in the majority (becausethoy are so easy to put on). Ono ofthem appeared to bo a Mexican, forIlls pants wero open-face- around thefeet, and had buttons basted all overits checkered area with pre-wa- r prodi-

gality. Tho hat was missing per-

haps it was checked, too. Anotherslender youth impersonated tholeather of our Country, as witli pow-

dered wig and white calves, ho waltz-o-

baby with bonnet and rattle was hardto pluco at first. Babies being neutergondor up to a certain ago. tho matterwus left in doubt till later in thoovonlng, when a cigarotto droopingfrom a corner of his mouth gave himaway.

A most delightful ovonlng was spentand tho wholo company thanked thoboys of Mnkawoli and wished thorna Happy Now Year. After tho mid-

night danco a substantial supper wasserved.

Good music was furnished by anoctotte from Lihuo which teased thocrowd with short dances and long

COURT NEWS

Anlanaclo Fnlces, a very young andhandsome but lovesick Filipino, wasbrought up in Court charged with astatutory offense.

Antanacio engaged learned counselto defend him and tho case was onall forenoon before Judge J. L. Hjorth;the courtroom had to be cleared of allcurious spectators, of which quite acrowd collected, tho nature of thecase in tho opinion of the Judge re-

quiring tills.It seems Atanaclo, very much in

love with a comely Korean maidenof a little more than fifteen summers,had enticed her away from her moth-er's custody, the young lady evidentlywilling, and was living with her atLlhuc when arrested at request ofthe outraged mama.

Atanacio was duly convicted aftera lot of hot legal sparring and giventho minimum fine by tho Court andemphatically enjoined to sin no more.

On Saturday Anatalio Piniar, anaged Filipino, was brought up in Courtfor examination as to his sanity andupon the expert testimony of Dr. E.X. Young, resident government physi-cian, tho man was committed by the.ludgo to the Honolulu insane asylum,it appearing to tho satisfaction of thoJudge that tho above named AnatalioI'iuiar was an insane person, and thattho public safety requires his restraintuntil ho becomes of sane mind.

Hereby hangs a sad talo comiuencing with Anatalio boarding the Kiuauat Nawlliwlll on December 18th boundfor Honolulu, how ho foil down anopen hatch In tho after hold, sustain-ing concussion of tho brain and prob-

ably a fractured skull, causing hispresent predicament. He was remov-ed to the Llliuo Hospital, where heaas been cared for since.

Anatalio and a grandchild were ontheir way back to tho Philippine Isl-

ands whero they wero to enjoy a littlemoney saved up by tho old man, andnow ho is a public charge withoutfault of his own.

While at tho Lihuo Hospital, Anata-lio, who had developed somo cunning,escaped from tho institution on Fri-

day with only ills regulation nightieon and mado a bee lino for Kealia orbeyond; traveling at tho speed of arunaway auto, lie successively passedthrough Kapaia and Hanamaulu withflying garment, leaving a vacuum inthe air so to speak, frightening peoplealong tho road, who thought thoy saw.1 ghost; when ho had in an almostincredible time nearly reached theWailua bridge, ho was overtaken bythe minions of tho law in hot pursuitIn an auto and captured.

Now Anatalio is Honolulu-boun-

again, but for tho halo pupulo, and itall seems a pity, but ho stands anexcellent chanco of recovering sub-

stantial damages from the transpor-tation company if lie over becomes ofsane mind again.

On Monday four gamblers forfeitedbail of bringing total of huesand costs for December up to ? 10S2.G5,

which was paid over to C. G. Kaulu-kou- ,

Treasurer of tho County.

In addition to being financially suc-

cessful for tho Red Cross it was"loads of fun" for the participantsbecause of several now stunts tho likeof which havo not boon seen here-abouts. Tho climax was readied whentho names of tho ladies, in scaledenvelopes, wero auctioned off underthe impersonation of popular act-resses. Thoy wero to lie supper part-ners; under the circumstances it wajsomewhat of the nature of a lottery,or of a pig in a poke. Somo of tholadies brought high prices and doubt-los- s

wero well worth It.The sum of $30.00 was realized.

The second subscription danco fortho benefit of the Walinen Hall washeld Thursday night at the homo ofMr. and Mrs. Eric A. Knudhon nnd"was a great success. All tho youngfyoople from Kalalieo to Mann woroon liMiid and even a car full of enthu-siasts from Lihuo braved tho' threat-ening weather and wont 3Ti miles totho dance. Music was furnished bythe Waiawa Ranch Cowboy QuintetteClub. Dancing began at 8 o'clock andby 0 tho danco floor was well (Hied.Ono steps, waltzes and fox trots fol-

lowed eacli other in quick order.Several new features wero Introducedcausing no end of excitement nndamusement.

The first novelty was a "luckydance." A dozen or more numberedcircles wero drawn on the floor andwhen the music stopped suddenly nta shrill whistle there was a scramblefor the charmed circles. A spinningwheel on which tho numbers weromarked off then settled tho fate ofthe lucky couple who were tho recip-ients of various small favors. Asthere wore a number of blanks on thowheel the excitement was sometimesprolonged for several dances.

The second feature of tho eveningwas a one-ste- dancing contest for nhandsome loving cup donated by Mr.Eriing Mnhlum of C. B. Hofgaurd &Co. Twenty couples entered as con-

testants and all who did not dancevoted on tho best dancers. Tho threecouples receiving tho highest numberof votes then danced again and thotwo couples receiving the highest votothen danced off for tho finals. Thofinal voto stood .10-2- and the cup waspresented to Mr. Roendahl, tho genialmanager of the MoBrydo Sugar Co.store and his partner, Miss Pillar ofEleele.

An added Item of interest was thoalmost total ellipse of tho moon whichwas staged as a side show to thoevening's amusement.

vice Sunday evening because for thofirst time tho general public heard thonow pipo organ. Accordingly therowas a largo audience, some comingfrom as far away as Kealia on onosldo and Koloa on tho other.

Naturally the place of honor wasgiven to tho organ, with voluntary,Interludes and postludo, In all ofwhich Mr. Ingalls did ample juslicoto hi sown flno art and to tho toneand quality of tho organ. Mrs. Ingallsrendered a violin solo with oxquibltuskill, tho Arioso of Handel.

Tho choir, under tho offectivo lead-ership of the now organ, rendered thohymns with lino spirit and harmony.Mr. Lydgato in tho sermon empha-sized tho valuo and importance oftho musical sido of tho sorvico andoutlined tho possibilities of tho organas an aid to worship.

CARE IN EDUCATION.

Lyman Ahbott in The Outlook says:"The South is convinced that the

two races must not be educated to-

gether in the same schools. Appar-ently the Northern teachers work-ing in the South entertain the sameopinion. With very rare exceptions,they educate their children whileyoung in their own homes, and assoon as the children reach a suitableage send them North to white schoolsfor their education. In this theSouthern conviction and the Northernpractice are both founded on a soundprinciple. On this principle mission-aries in pagan lands have generallyacted, sending as early as practicabletheir children to America to schooland college. Education is not all fur-

nished by teachers and text-book-

More potent than both combined ininfluence upon the character is schoolcompanionship. Whatever the futuremay have in store for us, at presentthe children of Negro parents are gen-

erally not such as exert an elevatinginfluence upon white companions.Slavery would not be the evil thingwhich now practically all Americansbelieve it to have been if the childrenof slave parents were the best com-panions for the children of an alwaysfree people."

The above has significant implica-tions for us here in the education ofour children.

WHAT ABOUT SCHOOL SURVEY?Some months ago there was more

or less talk of a school survey whichwas to be undertaken some time inthe near future.

We would respectfully inquirewhether there is still any chance ofthis promise being redeemed, or wasit only a politic sop to pacify an insistent public for the time being.

HOI K E AT

There was a monster Sunday SchoolHolke at Waimea on Dayin which the Sunday Schools all theway from Koloa to Kekaha partici-pated. There was some very excellent singing such as onlycan do, and a good deal of friendlycompetition between the differentschools participating. Not only thechildr'Mi enjoyed it but the grownfolks as well.

KAUAI FOR PROHIBITION.

The following letter refers to a pelltlon to Congress circulated recentlyin Llhue.

Honolulu. Dec. 26, 1917.Rev. J. M. Lydgate, Lihue, Kauai.

My Dear Mr. Lydgate: We received the petition a few days ago andwere very much pleased with the num-

ber of names and with the reprsenta-tlv-

people who signed it. We thankyou very much for your effort in thisdirection. We were very much lessfortunate in our petitions sent toHilo and to Maui. Neither of themsucceeded in getting any names ontheir petition. This is a very peculiar kind of work, and only thosewho are deeply interested In thecause are able to accomplish anysatisfactory results.

Our petitions In Honolulu were verysatisfactory. We had very many rep-

resentative names upon our petitions,and people who formerly would nottake any Interest In a thing of thiskind are now willing to help; for instance, people like Abraham Lewisof the Bank of Hawaii, and Mr. Ten- -

ney of Castle & Cooke, Ltd., showingthat there is a decided change in thesentiment of the people of this city.

Thanking you again for your endeavors in our behalf and for yourcontinued interest in our work, andwishing you a happy New Year, weare, Yours Bincerely,

GEO. W. PATY,Secretary Anti-Suloo- League,

COMMERCIAL REVIEW OF 1917.

From Thrum's Annual we synopsizethe following statement:

The exports for the fiscal year endIng June 30, reached a total value ofnearly 74 million dollars, an advanceover the preceding year of nearly 11

million dollars.The imports showed a similar high

level, reaching nearly 53 million dollars, an advance of 13 millions overthe preceding year. The excess o

exports over imports was about 3

million dollars.Most of the gain is attributable to

the staple industries, sugar and pineapples, though there is somewhat ofa gain in other minor industries, suchas hides, honey, wool, rice, etc.

It Is somewhat of a surprise thatwith Kona coffee, unsurpassed, we

claim, in the world, we yet import

i before, also the longer they are cooked, the better they are. If possiblecook your cereal for 2 hours the daybefore and set it aside to be reheatedin the morning.

Cereals are amongst our cheapestfoods and of high food value. Neverthrow away what you have left overfrom breakfast. Add it to your breador fry it for lunch, serving it withsyrup, or make it into wafers, as follows :

Cereal Wafers. Mrs. Russell.Take the mush left from breakfast,

Materials were distributed, newlots of solutions were made up andin several cases a final sprayingwas made to the crops of potatoessoon to be harvested. On thewhole the present winter crop ofpotatoes badly hit byblight; on the other hand, there isample evidence that the sprayinghas been effective in warding offthe blight in many cases.

The cut-wor- and aphis injurytogether possibly the newlvdiscovered potato mite appears tohave quite as serious a drawback as the blight. Scarcely lessattention has been given the insect pests that to the potato diseass, and it becomes apparent thata number of factors must be contended with rather than with theblight alone.

this species is to be found inJamaica a letter was addressed,shortly after the meeting of the '

Civic Convention, to the Directorof Agriculture of that colony to'which the following reply was received:"Dear Sir;

Your letter of the 20th of Sep-tember,' addressed to the Directorof Agriculture, has been referredto me and I, beg to say in replythat Cnrica ervthrocarpa is notgrown in Jamaica,

Faithfully yours,W. IlAKKIS,

Government llotnnist and Super-intendent of Public Gordens."

There appears to be no furtherroom for doubt that the informantfrom Jamaica who was responsiblefor the statements repeated by thespeaker at the Civic Conventionwas either uiminforined or wasintentionally giving misinforma-tion. The papava is the onlyspecies of Carica which has beenextensively used as a source ofcommercial papain. It seems de-

sirable to make this clear as thereis some renewed interest in papainat this time and it is importantthat time should not be wasted inthe planting of trees other thanthose v.hich are known to yieldthis substance in considerableq nantities. Different papava treesvarv widelv in their production ofpapain. While these characters inthe trees are not well fixed it isdesirable so far as is possible toselect seeds from trees which givean abundant yield.

The Importance of

Tin in the War

war necessities areeducating the American people tonew habits of thrift. This waspointed to today by the localmanager of the Standard Oil Cotn- -

canv Mr. K. S. I'rescott, when hereferred to tcor.otnies bei'iR madeby his company to belu conservetlie supplv of tin.

Heretofore lai'tie quantities 01

Ftar Oil (Kerosene) have been soldin one and live pallon tin cans,but this practice is being discour-aged to save tin.

The same Star Oil heretoforesold extensively in tins is carriedin bulk by dealers and can be pur-

chased from them at a small moneysaving as well as at a saving in tinfur the nation's needs. So impor-tant is this matter of

that it is the patriotic duty ofevery American to conserve thesupply as far as possible, and oneway of doing this is to buy kero-

sene and like commodities in bulkinstead of in tin cans.

THRUM'S ANNUAL.

This standard periodical is out withn very good number along tho familiarlines of Interest that have made it avaluablo asset for Hawaii.

Among tho literary articles thereis a wide range of interest rollectingmore or less the times and theirneeds. An instructive article on theHawaiian Pineapple Industry and an-

other on Hawaii's AgriculturalStrength, remind us of tho paramountimportance of our agricultural Inter-ests.

"Hawaii in War Time," and "TheRed Cross In Hawaii," reflect the up-

permost thought and theme of thesedays.

Of a historical naturo there are"The Early Days of Kamehameha IV.""Tho Passing of Kamehameha I.""The Lying in State of Llliuokulani,"and "Some Plantation Memories," thelatter by J. M. Lydgato.

Of a scientific nature there is Dr.Taggar's address on Hawaiian VolcanoObservatories; and in a different linean annotated list of Hawaiian algae.

In addition to these and other lit-

erary articles there are the usual in-

valuable statistical tables, etc., etc.Altogether it is a very interesting andvaluable number.

THE PLEDGE TO THE FLAG.

It is probably not generally knownthat the pledge to tho flag used intho Hag exercise by tho schools everymorning throughout tho length andbreadth of tho land was originatedby The Youth's Companion, and isknown as "The Youth's Companionllag pledge."

In 1SD1, as part of a campaign toimprove tho buildings and the groundsof the public schools of the UnitedStates, and to foster the spirit ofpatriotism in tho schools, this pledgewas formulated by tho Youth's Com-

panion editorial staff, and sent out toall the schools throughout tho land.

Mr. Clapper, Mr. Case and Alexan-der Hogg spent the week end on ahunting and camping expedition toKalalau, returning today. Goats and"near to naturo" constituted the mainattractions.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CHRISTMASTREE AT WAIMEA CHURCH.

Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock overforty children of Wnlinoa and Keltahamet nt tho old Foreign Church whena beautiful Norfolk pine trco donatedby Madame Knudscn of Waiawa hadbeen decorated In true Xmas stylo bysomo of tho young ladies of thochurch; and when the children filedinto church they were dazzled by atree sparkling In sliver and snow andsparkling with candles. Candies andstockings full of other good thingswere dunclng on every limb, a sightthat many of tho little tots had novcrseen before. In front of the pulpit amanger and a babe In a cradle addeda touch of realism to tho scone.

Master Valdmar Knudscn, dressedas a shepherd boy, and the little girlsrepresenting angels with gauze wingsmade a pretty picture. Tho versesof this beautiful hymn, "Once in HoyalDavid's City," were recited by variousmembers of tho class, and severalhymns and extracts from tho Psalmswere cleverly rendered. After theexorcises tho presents woro distribu-ted by Miss Maud l'Orange, one oftho teachers in tho Sunday School.

Much credit Is duo to Dr. and Mrs.Carver for their success In buildingup a largo class in a very short time.

TEACHERS MUST BE LOYAL.

ernment Is asking us to bo very caro- -

ful with our food, to do away withall waste, to two homo products, andto substitute foods which aro plentyfor thoso which aro scarce. It asksus to out down on our uso of wheatmoat, sugar and fats. If each personwill undertake to do his part, manylives will bo saved.

In tho naino of humanity, il be-

hooves us In a happier climo to reachout a helping hand to our sui'li-rln-

fellow-men- . Wo can do this, veryman, woman and child, most effort ivoly by conserving our food. Within afow days tho opportunity will bo offered to overy afmily, and to all singleparsons, as well, to make or to renewtho promise to support tho great vol-
