The jubilee anniversary of The
Royal School came eff very success
ful V last Saturday, July ~. 4
large lanai oDX30 was erected on tue
school grounds, whose interior was
artistcally decorated with Hawaiian
1ags. The pillars were entwined with
evcrgrceps, Tue long tables extend
ing almost the entire length Of the
lanai, and another AZ the head for
HIS Majesty aud bis Ministers, mem
hers Of tic ROYAL family and the
Diplomatic corps, were beautifully 1
Oycrlaid with fragrant flowers and
cvergroens. The general aspect OF
the interior was superb ana most
exquisite. Hawaiian dishes in great
abundance we're placed with taste on
the tables. The banquet was
purely Hawaiian one, and Miss X.
Peabody and Mrs. G. X. Stillman,
who had charge of the luau, devoted
their utmost skill and energy to the
preparation of the luau, and they
certainly received the highest appro-
baton of all present and the sim
cerest commendation of the alumni
Of the Royal School for making the
iuau so successful.
For several months past the
various committees were hard ct
work carrying out their respective
duties. The finance committee we're
able 10 raise very handsome amount
among the old members of the
school and the principal, the sub
scription list not being extended TO
outsiders. About one hundred and
fifty pupils subscribed, and the
Jubilee Committees are under last
ing obligations to those pupils who
willingly gave in order to make the
commemoration of the tiftieih ami
versary of their Alma Mater sue
cess.u.
