DANCE ON
THE LAWN
A Pretty Function
Given by Mrs.
Love.
WOODED GARDEN
AGLOW WITH LIGHTS
Out.of.Door Dance in Honor of
Three Visiting Young Ladies
From Portland.

~ NE of the prettiest out-of-door
dances and garden fetes given in
Honolulu for several seasons was
that of last evening given by Mrs. Love
at her residence on Fort street, in honor
of Miss Eva Dennis, Miss Mabel Jones
and Miss Bessie Church of Portland,
Oregon, who are the guests for the sea-
son of Miss Stella Love. The finely
wooded premises with their great branch
| ing trees forming almost a canopy above
beautiful carpet of lawn, were well
adapted for the our-door function, and
from the street the moving scene of
parti-colored japanese lanterns, swaying
from tree to tree and over the dancing
pavilion, was fascinating picture. From
the main entrance gateway to the en-
| powered port-cochere two strings of ia
panese lanterns lighted the way. The
great expanse of lawn was dotted here
| and there with settees beneath the trees,
which invited the guests to enjoy cool
| interval between the dances, at the foot
! of the steps to the main lanai a canvas
covered dancing floor was laid. High
above this and caught up in the limbs or
the trees, was a canopy of canvas. Be
meath were strung festoons of Japanese
lanterns Surrounding the floor, ported
palms, pandanaus and other pretty Island
greenery were arranged to give the in
terror a truly tropical aspect. With the
natural surroundings of wood and shrub
berry the effect was at once artistic and
striking. The steps were lined with box.
lanterns of red, white and blue. Two
fags-Hawaiian and American-Were
caught up over the lanai, heightening the
| general decorative effect of the plants
and lanterns. The lanai and parlors were
prettily decorated with flowers and ferns,
one of the handsomest pieces being a
huge jardiniere filled with yellow coreop-
| sis and marguerites, which rested upon
and concealed a table. Everywhere dainty
Hands had artistically arranged the floral
decorations, and had not forgotten to
place the lawn settees in prettily shaded
bowers.
SoIomon's orchestra of Hawaiian mu-
sicians was placed near the dancing pa
vilion, partially concealed from view by
a barrier of palms and pandanus. Their
native melodies found favor in the deuX
ed to enliven the spirits of the dancers.
The out-of-door dance is a charming in
novation in such climate as Honolulu
possesses, and should be popular during
the coming social seasan.
The Love grounds were thronged
throughout the evening by the guests,
who were received by a bevy of young
ladies in the prettiest of evening toilets.
Miss Love Miss Dennis, Miss Jones and
| RI a ing hOStpGSpS-
and were quite the favorites of the even
ing.
In a pretty bower of vines and ported
plants a lemonade bowl was a favorite
retreat between dances. Sherbet, bon
bons and dainty refreshments of cake
were also served Miss Church looked
quite pretty in a white organdie, with
lace trimmings, cut decollete, en- traine.
Miss Dennis was a dainty dancer in a
blue crepe de chine, and Miss Jones was
a winning piece of femininity in gray
silk. Miss Love was an attractive host
ess in a pretty creation of pink crepe de
chine with applique trimming, worn dec
ollete, en- traine. Mr.. Will Love, who
