The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1895-12-27

He advised, for brevity's sake, that
the society De called after one of its
main objects-Kodak Klub. They
had provided for the reception and en-.
tertainment of distinguished guests
of the island. II would be better
for a club to be taken in and
abused for its generosity than for
an individual to be so taken
in and abused, and it would cost less
in dollars aud cents. If Snubbity
Suubbins of New York came as repre-
sentative of the Herald the club could
receive him without committing it
self. The visitor would be the guest
of the island. As to the other titles,
they had their use. Mutual Admir-
alton Literary Society" admitted of
one doing what other literary societies
did. He had no doubt when the so
ciety got to work, aud the reports of
committees on birds, forestry, mos
quitoes, volcanoes, language, coffee,
leprosy, history, annexation, sub
marine cables, Longfellow, races,
cholera, society, fine arts, architecture
and political economy began to come
in there would be advance in these
branches. The by laws of tn klub
would be secret.
Tue klub adopted the constitution
as drafted, merely amending name.
President Tremblor now arose and
perforated. He delivered an Grafton
worthy of a Fourth of July celeora-
tion at Jonesboro' Corner, Iowa. He
said this was an epoch in the history
of the islands. The constitution just
promulgated had issued not exactly
as Gladstone said the United States
constitution issued, but something
like il. He did not remember any
LatiE appropriate 10 the occasion, but
as sound was rea..y what one wanted
in quotation, he would repeat:
ga mo, amas, amat." The president
ended by saying that in Monkey Pod
bali truth would be unveiled and
nothing be hidden that should he
brought to light. This was cheered to
the echo, so that the reverberations
nearly knocked some shingles off the
tax collectors Office near by.
Permanent officers were elected for
1896: Judge Essex, president; Mr..
Trem blor, president PahoehOe
Smith, treasurer; Banana Stamford,
secretary; DR. Lens, Makamaka Dola,
E.q Mrs. Lens, Mrs. TTemblor and
Mrs. Manchester Ellis, committee on
reception.
Pahoehoe Smith wanted to know
what the annual fee would be.
The president stated that this small
matter could be considered after
while. but he knew that the fee would
not be over one dollar year-nO
other charges. Honorary members
would not be charged anything. Pa
hoehoe Smith desired 70 be enrolled
as an honorary member.
The klub then proceeded to elect
some honorary members. The name
of President Dole was suggested by
Senator Nowiliwili Brown. DR.
Medica objected, on the ground that,
constitutiOnaily, he (DOie) was in
eligible, as no one could bring any
charges against him.
Miss SeriDa WahIue rose to say that
she could make the required COM
plaint. President Dole had perpetrat
Ell a book The kiub collapsed, and
Mr. Dole was elected. The names OF
Bradford Torrey of Boston, PROF. J.. r
Musick and. Miss Kate Field now on
the islands, and Bill Nye of Group
Creek Villa, n. c., were purpOsed for
membership and accepted.
Mr. TorIey was fully qualified by
four books issued in as many years,
Mr.. Musick had, written enough
books TO reuder twelve men eligible,
and Miss Field had been guilty of
lecturiug. Bill Nye furnished ample
qualification in ten lines be bad
written which were considered suffi-
cient evidence of his degenerate con-
ditiOn.
Moved and seconded that the follow
ing form of notice of election be sent
TO newly elected honorary members:
Dear Sir (or Madam)-I have the
honor to inform you that the Kauai
Kodak Klub (full name in Secretary's
book has oeen pleased to elect you
honorary member OF their society.
You will have absolutely nothing to
10 after you have accepted this honor.
No fees. You receive with this a
cordial invitation to visit our island
when we will be p'eased to entertain
you, show you the SpOuting Horn,
Barking Sands and other sights. En-
Closed stamp. Yours fraternally -
.-The Secretary.
PahOehoe Smith wished to offer
suggestion. He thought that IN send
to be made for the person of the re-
ciplent. To man like Bill Nye it
would not be necessary to enclose a
stamp, but TO Mark Twain it would
be well to send envelope and paper.
We might save money this way The
president stated that the subject fOI
next meeting would be r1OsquitO-s.
Kealia Schema notified the klub that
at its next meeting he would present
for membership the names OF Grover
Cleveland and Mckinley. Cousterna-
ton prevailed for few moments and
the kIub adjourned. Reported by the
secretary.
