Another Regatta Day mas come ana
gone and this was even more success
fully celebrated than the last, which
is saying a good deal. At the Myrtle
and Healani club-houses the members
WED with each other in doing the most
for their guests. Both houses were
gaily decorated for the occasion with
flags and palm leaves interspersed
with the club colors. The ceiling of
the Healani clubroom was an especial
1y artistic piece of work and showed
plainly the handiwork of some of the
clubs lady friends. Ice cream and
cakes, with lemonade and other good
things, were dispensed bountifully by
both clubs and partaken of with the
greatest impartiality by all. The Hea-
lani boys and girls at the Myrtle ice
cream and danced to the Myrtle music
just as freely as they did at their own
house, and the Myrtle boys and girls
returned the compliment in the same
spirit. In fact, 1t might have been one

Both club-houses were packed with
visitors the livelong day, dancing be-

intermissions.

The "Old-Timers' race did not come

of the Myrtle crew. The judges de-

went over the course just for practice.
