ART At OAHU COLLEGE
DRAWINGS, PAINTING AND CHINA
DECORATIONS.
\ Very Satisfactory and Encouraging
Exhibit - Ladies Interested - The
Artists and Their Work

Exhibit - Ladies Interested - The
Artists and Their Work.
The old school hall on the Oahu
college grounds was thronged this
morning with people viewing the
work of the drawing and china paint
ing classes of the college. 1t was the
exhibit of the pupils for the first half
term of the school year and reflected
much credit on the tutor Miss b. F.
French.
The exhibits comprised those of pri-
vate pupils in china, charcoal and pen
ell drawings, also the work done by
college.
The work of the preparatory schol-
ars consisted of pencil drawings from
objects and explanatory drawings of
mind from the board. There was
some original work done at home,
most of which were native flowers.
The charcoal drawings by private
pupils showed the skill of the artists
following this line. The drawings
were completed in private studios and
taken from clay models.
The pencil work done by the college
pupils was one of the chief features
of the exhibit. Miss French during
the term, selected from the class some
of the most expert craftsmen. These
pupils at the last lesson, instead of re-
citing, were set at work drawing diff
ferent views in the rooms and about
the college grounds. Maurice l.. Da-
mon has view of the grounds look
ing out from the outer hall; G. G.
Fuller penciled the big organ in the
main room: T. Seymour Hall has "A
view looking dorn the main stairway;
Edwin o, Hall pictured the gas fix
lures in the drawing room, also two
other views in this room: Sam'l Park
er and Albert Willis had the clock and
a big palm plant to draw; Fred Alex
ander made Il sketch of one of the
tables in the drawing room; Elsie
Waterhouse had a sketch looking
down into the hallway: c. S. Judd had
an outdoor view: All Kin Lees sketch
gave a faithful reproduction of the
view presented looking down toward
the gate from the upper window and
Eugene Horner presented an interest
ing corner of the drawing room.
This work was all free hand, these
pupils having had an excellent train
ing in drawing from objects or from
memory sketches. II
Miss French's class in china work

The Misses Bessie, Helen and Carrie

Mrs. Willis, wife of the Bishop of
Honolulu has water color study TAX

this water coloring to china work.
Mrs. ingalls,, Mrs. Dillingham;, the
Misses Sorenson, Miss Schmidt. Mrs.
Higgins, Miss Crozier, Mrs. Hosmer
and Mrs Douglas also had on exhibi-
tion beautiful specimens of china
work. The ladies have their own

A HAPPY PLAN.
Whereby Children Are Amused aAd
Instructed 1T the Same Time.

whereby Children Are Amused and
Instructed At the Same Tine.
From the Philadelphia Times.
A certain wise mother has originated q
plan whereby she kills two birds with ons
stone, for not only are her own and her
neighbors' children given the pleasure Of
having company, and each child in Its
turn taught how to entertain and to prac-
tice the unselffshness required OF host ana
hostess, but the mothers themselves are
pleasure brought about by this unique
idea. This bright woman has the common
sense to realize that she grows petty and
narrow and easily irritated by trifies II
she stays at home too much or merely
seeks recreation in making calls and talk
other mothers who think as she does and
they four have formed Happy Afternoon
Club" In joining which they agree to have
the children Of the other three at the house
of one Of the members once month for
the afternoon.
whatever takes the other mothers away FOR
their afternoons recreation Is enjoyed with
an easy mind, as the stay-at-home mother
promises not to delegate the somewhat
onerous honors to anyone else. but start
all the fun-going In person for the children
left In her care. At first it was haId work'

There is a charming story told in Every

Sowing Orchards to Grass.

Some people believe that grass pas
ture keeps in the moisture. Expert
ments made in Nebraska have proven
this to be fallacy. The orchard was
divided into three parts. Two of them
were in grass, one moved and the other
pastured; and the third portion was
cultivated. 1t was proven by actual
analysis that for every 100 barrels of
water contained in the first 20 inches OF
pasture, like amount of ground Gull
tivated during the entire season con-
tanned over 140 barrels. The pastured
portion contained little more mois-
ture than that moved, but only five per
cent. more. Apples from the cultivated
land averaged nearly IA per cent. larger
il weight than those from pastured
land, and over II per cent. larger than
those from moved land.
