Cricket Match Followed BY a Grand
Ball at the Moana.


duly celebrated by the British colony
here and in hearty measure by the citi-
zens at large of the community. The |
day will be generally observed as a
holiday in part or in whole by the town
out of respect and appreciation of Eng
lands biggest event Of the twentieth
century.
Although there is a difference of ten
hours and half between the days and
nights of Hawaii nei, or the Sandwich
Islands, as the British named The
group after the Earl of Sandwich, pat
ron Of Captain Cook; no calculations of
longitudinal degrees will be made in
observing the hours of ceremony BY
the time the coronation services in st.
Andrews Cathedral are over, the |
weary king will be looking forward to |
the moment when he can slip off his |
pomp and ceremony and become in |
sleep, an ordinary man. When the |
cricketers are playing at oahu College, !
England's coronation day will have |
passed and as the loyal Britishers and |
their friends conclude their bali at the |
Moana, British hOuseholders wiz be |
getting up for a sleepy breakfast at
noon or indulging in coffee, eggs and
toast without the trouble or arising af-
ter all the eXcitements of yesterday
The coronation services, materially
shortened from the actual ceremoniaI
to be performed al Westminster ABB
bey, filled with customs handed down
from monarch to monarch will be
commenced at 9:15 at st. Andrews Ca
thedral, the Rev Canons Macintosh
and Kitcat officiating.
The original coronation service which
was held at the time of Queen NictO-
ria's investment of royal dignities and
cares, left that monarch. then in her
teens" worn out as the late afternoon
! shadows crept across the grey old alb
bey of Westminster. For King Ed
ward the program has been shortened
and for celebration in the colonies
shortened again. This being an Amer
! lean territory, the services were once
more taken in hand by Canons Mack
Iintosh and Kitcat and adapted for Anne
Irican use. Many of the time hOnored OBJ
| servances of the conservation ritual are
meaningless except in the light of tra-
| dition and to those up in the lore of
royal ceremonies. There are others
| chat must not be omitted. The Corona
! ton anthems are always sung. II was
| rlsd when they said to me, hetus go
I INTO the house of the Lord" and an
| other first sung at the corona ton of
| George II. Then there is an anthem
sung at the consecrati ton of a bishop as
well as at that of king, Church and
State will walk closely in these OBJ
! servances. The full choir will render
! these with all patriotism, Wray Tay-
! lor at the organ.
! The form of service is the same as
! that published by order of King Ed
| ward and intended to be used through
| out the Colonies. No abbreviatiOns
| have been made in the service which
has however been slightly changed TO
suit the fact of this being an Ameri-
| can episcOpate. Prayers for the presi-
| dent have been added to the original
| program as used in America. One of
these changes shows in the proclama
| tion. in Westminster Abbey the procla
nation is cad as a part of the ceremony
| whereas the cleric reading it on Thurs
| day will preface his recital with words
showing that this form of proclamation
| will be made at the abbey. The COM
| bined chOirs of ST. Clements and st.
! Andrews will sing the services and an
thems.
! The litany and creeds will be intOned
| by Canon Ault. The anthem by Handel
! was the one composed for and sung at
| the coronation of George II. The epi-
| tome of prayers mark the various forms
of handing the crown, the scepter, the
robe and the bible.
The whole service will be over in
ample time for the congregation to at
| tend the reception al the British con-
sulate where consul Hoare will receive
from IL to /. The band will be in at
! tendance both there and at the garden
party and cricket match in the after
noon. A quintette club will supply the
orchestra for the ball.

mittee wish 1t to be understood, open
to all who care TO come. There viii be
no charges ohany kind. A number of
tickets have been sold for the ball In
the evening which promises to be a
brilliant affair, special cars have been
arranged to leave the Moana Hotel up
