THE IRWIN BARN DANCE \ DE
CIDED SUCCESS.
Large Number of Guests .nioy Them
scIves-place Handsomely Decorated
for the Occasion -Delightful Time.

! In their pretty new barn at Waikiki,
which, for its magnifcence in architec-
ture and finish, has few equals i'm this
or any other country, Mr.. and Mrs
William G. Irwin received great
many friends last evening. The occa-
| sion was no other than 1.-THE barn
dance which has been so anNiously
awaited by local society people.
The guests began arriving at about
s o'clock. Far down the Waikiki road
could be seen brilliant glare looming
up from the Irwin premises. At the
carriage entrance there was stationed
large arc light to direct the wav up
the driveway to the main entrance of
the barn.
\ stranger who might have passed
the place last evening would never
have suspicioned the brilliantly light
ed building to be carriage house.
Above the big doorway was most az
propriately arranged large horse
shoe of red and blue incandescent
lights.
just inside is the large carriage
room, which had been transformed in
to an elegant ball room. lung about
on the walls, here and there, in such
an artistic way that the pretty wood
work was not concealed, were Ameri-
can and Hawaiian flags. Palm leaves,
l,,,u,, ,l,.,g.
twining some stationary object, added
to the attractiveness of the room. The
bright glow from the different colored
light overhead, and in every corner.
made the scene in this room bril-
liant one.
Stationed off in Il small alcove on the
seward side of the ball room, were
the musicians-the Hawaiian National
Quintette Club--who rendered excel
lent service during the evening. Look
ing from the carriage room toward the
city, was the gangway to the stalls.
On the right hand were the single
stalls, fitted up with cosy mats and
rugs and chairs for the dancers. On
the left hand were the box stalls. each
containing card table. The same
scheme that appeared in ,he ball room
was carried out throughout the entire
building. There were $50 incandescent
lights, all neatly arranged.
Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin and their neice,
Miss Bessie Spading, received the
guests at the Diamond Head end of the
big ball room. Mrs. Irwin was hand
somely goWned in dark silk dress
with trimmings. She wore a crown of
jewels on her head.
Dancing began shortly after Q
o'clock. There were over 200 people
present. President and Mrs. Dole and
the members of the diplomatic and
consular corps, with their wives, were
among the guests.

VERTICAL WRITING.
Why 1t is More Satisfactory Than the
SIOpinE Method.

From the Rochester Post Express.
The style of writing now known as the
vertical originated as system in Europe.
Al d, strange to say, II was the produce of
hygienic rather than pedagogical investi-
CATION Physicians seeking the causes of
the increasing prevalence of defective sight
and spiral troubles traced them to sloping
writing. Then followed experiments that
led to tine vertical system.
1t was found that business men, noted
for their rapid and legible writing, had
been forced to acquire a hand very differ
ent from that taught in schools. They held
their pens differently. and assumed a po-
sition at their desks other than that which
they had been taught a study of the best
specimens of these business hands showed
that the writers had gone back to the SIM
pie, round, ROman-iike characters, which
many teachers claimed as natural to young
children These business men sat immedi-
ately in front of their desks. their hands
taking the most natural position. On these

The position required is with the body
