the first big catch of the girls was cele-
brated. Miss Henrietta, one of the
prettiest and most intelligent of the
daughters, was married to Capt. Whit
ing, of the United States navy. The
captain was then stationed at Homo
lulu, and, though he was fifty, his
handsome presence and his family con-
necions made him the most eligible
bachelor in island society.
He spent much time at the Along
house, but no one dreamed that he
would marry one of the girls. The an
nouncement of the engagement was a
seven days wonder and this sensation
was increased by the splendor of the
wedding. Mrs. Along spared no ex-
pense, and the ceremony and the feast
that followed will be remembered long
by those who shared in it,
When Capt. Whiting took his bride to
San Francisco she was received by
every one, and she made a most ia
vorable impression by her daintiness,
her modesty and her intelligence. She
is now living here, where her husband
is stationed.
This marriage was a social ten
strike for the ambitious mother, and
several other daughters soon found
husbands. In 1898 three Of the girls

They all have fine voices, which have

on various musical instruments. They
are noted as beautiful walters, and the
waltz is the favorite dance at Along
receptions.
Not one of the girls can be called
beautiful but they have fairly regu-
lar features, clear compilations and fine
eyes, and they have great vivacity and
no small charm. Their large strain of

grown with the organization and which
inspires it today. Miss Flint was sue

unites with most attractive person
atty executive ability of no mean or
der. Today both Miss Flint and Miss
Robb, as members of the federation,
are working with the president to at
tain the objects of the organization.
The clever young woman who for the
| last three years has been the presiding
officer of the federation, Miss K. Maud
Clum, enjoys prominence in other lines
of work, but SO closely has she identi-
fed herself with the federation's in
terestS that, in a large measure, it rep
/ resents her. Miss Clum represented the
federation at the meeting of the Ma
i.tional Educational association held this
year in Boston, at which meeting the
grade teachers, led by Miss Haley, of
Chicago, asserted their right to be con-
sidered, offering as proof the fact that
they represented at least three-fourths
of the teaching body.
r. Feb. Z, 1900, the Grade Teachers as
sociation became member of the State
/ Federation of Women's Clubs. The
teachers realize that for the benefit of

mental stimulus that will give fresh
impetus to that work, 1T is necessary

and socially.
Hospital Fund Created.
r. The spirit of mutual helpfulness
which inspires the organization is ex-
emplified in a piece of very wise phi
lanthropy; that is hospital fund The
collection of the fund was commenced
during Miss Clum's administration and
this branch of the work owes its incep-
ton to the needs of one of the grade
teachers. Today any grade teacher who
is in need of it will be cared for at the
city hospital for one week. She has
