would De spoiled oy uoWnpour OF
rain. but Providence was kind 10
the students, and only allowed a
little water to fall during the
CREASED pig race, probably with
laudable intention of washing a
little grease off the diminutive
porker's back, so that the boys
could catch him more easily.
The college building was gayly
decorated with buff and blue bunt-
ing-the college colors. Almost
every scholar and a large number
of the visitors present had on little
knots of buff and blue also, to
show that they were staunch ad-
herents of Hawaii's old college
where nearly all of them had re-
ceived their education. In the
main hall of the college building,
the portraits Of c. R Bishop, who
has done so much for the institu-
ton, DR.. Beckwith, who was at one
time the head of the college, and
Mrs. Mary Rice, were decorated
with flowers and ferns.
There was a large crowd present,
and all seemed to enjoy the day
immensely. All the events were
strongly contested, and no one
won a race that did not require a
struggle to carry off the prize. The
