The March Literary at Hama
kuapoko.

VI
In spite of the facts that many Of
the districts people were absent and
that heavy showers had prevailed
mauks during the day, the drawing
rooms we're fairly filled with the
ladies and gentlemen of the vicinity
The proverbial quiet and decorum
of the early part of an evening was
soon broken by signs of interest and
pleasure in the different events of the
programme. A duet, piano and vio-
lin, by Mrs. Loveland and Mr.. Gilhus,
served as an introduction to the en-
tertainment. Then followed a reci-
tation prettily rendered by Miss Ethel
Mossmsn.
Next-Thirty merry minutes were
devoted to close study of ''Circu-
lating Library;" the guests by aid of
q few simple accessories and a vast
deal of imagination became trans
formed into representations of GER
tain well known books. The library
kept circulating SO that each illustra-
ton by some happy chance or Hercu-
lean mental effort ght happen upon
the obscure titles of their confreres.
Some of the select volumes of the
evenings collection we're as follows:
"Locke's Essay on the Human Under
standing" was represented by Mr.. II.
Laws Ia paddock and large S on one
foot, and an 4 on the other); "Red as
Rose is She" by Miss Gregory Ia

of the different representations.
After a pleasing trio, by Messrs.
Baldwin, Nicoll and Linsey, Miss
Hammond recited humorous piece
with piano accompaniment, and Mrs.
Beckwith read an interesting piece.
Then vocal duet by Misses Nor
