ABSENT.MINDED HONOLULANS
CREATE NEW DEPARTMENT
People Who Leave All Kinds of Articles in Street
Cars Cause Company to Maintain
"lost Article Bureau"

A rapidly increasing department or
the Honolulu Rapid Transit Company s
business is the Lost Article Bureau
to which contributions are daily made
by the patrons of the line. The in
crease of deposits with this department
has caused the opening of set of
books in which the articles are care
fully enumerated with blank spaces for
the names of the conductors who act as
the patrons proxies, and for the names
of those who may eventually claim
them.
It is surprising how absent-minded
Honolulu folk are, especially when they
ride on a car with bundles which they
are prone to lay on the seat beside
them.
A patron-the men are just as abb
sent-minded as the women-boards j
car with parcel or two in his hands.
The habit of gazing at the scenery
along the route causes his thoughts to
wander far from his possessions and
by the time he desires to leave the car,
he has probably forgotten all about the
parcel which he laid so carefully beside
him on the seat. After he reaches his
home his thoughts occasionally wander
back to his ride, and there is a sense
of something not having been brought
home that he started with. Either his
own memory prompts him to dwell up
! on the missing parcel, or his wife as
sists him in remembering it. There is
hurried call on the telephone for the
Rapid Transit office and a converse
ton takes place about as follows: -
Hello. Rapid Transit; this is Mr..
So-and-So; I've lost a parcel-a parcel

SPECIMENS
Some Real Gems Turn
Up in Educational
Exhibits.

AS the cases of exhibits for ST Louis
are opened in the Education Office many
articles are revealed which cause ex-
carnations of adn1iring wonder. Ger
tain lines of handicraft are represented
by objects that suggest great CONNER
cial possibilities if produced on any
large scale.
There are hats for women and girls
which could not fail of becoming the
rage if exposed for sale in any main
land city. One specimen weaved from
the leaves of the loulu, or Hawaiian
pahu, made at the Hookena school in
Kona, Hawaii, is as pretty hat as
ever adorned the head of beauty.
Kealahou school at Waiakoa, Maui,
has some artistically embellished liter
AZURE from its own press which is real
ly superb Original and eclectic arti-
cles in prose and verse are printed on
sheets that are hand decorated in water
colors with local landscapes and flow
ers, the taste and technique of execution
being such as would not discredit an
exhibition of the Kilohana Art League
Another splendid composition from
this obscure country school, bearing sig
natures indicating that pupils of sundry
alien races did the work, is an elabor-
ate art calendar. The top part is a
hinged screen, its two leaves covered
with sketches of flowers and scenery,
interspersed with fanciful designs From
this depends the calendar, each month
upon separate card, the cards fastened
with fancy cord and ribbons, and hand
paintings decorating every card. 1t
would make beautiful wall piece for
a boudoir. AS showing that it is not
school of mere fancy work, Keaiahou
sends complete set of books in book
keeping. The teacher, it is learned,
came to Hawaii with high class diplo-
ma and is an all-round educator.
Lahaina school constributes a large
assortment of cocoanut shell baskets,
Kailua sends coffee. measure woven
out of lauhala leaf, also fine assort-
nent of hats. An elegant shell lei
comes from Hanalei.
Waihee produces novelties in
cushions adorned with woven huhala
stands in grillwork. Pearl City school
encases decorated class exercises in
beautifully iettered covers.
Among the most important handicraft
exhibits are those of real lace A
sample was shown to local dealer, who
gave judgment that a collar of that de-
scription would be worth from SIS to
$Ioa The lace represents but two
months of the special instruction in
this art for which the Legislature made
an appropriation on the urgent petition
of several ladies of Honolulu. One OF
/ the aims of the lace instructor, who
gives a portion of her time to Normal
School students, is to. teach celebrity in
the work, as without quickness of exc
cution the profit of the industry would
| be spent in time of production.

SEVENTH INFANTRY
LIKED HONOLULU

The Chronicle says: Recent word
from the ever beloved Seventh Infan-
try, which, though lost to sight, is
none the less to memory DEAR states
the good news of a safe trip to the
Orient and a pleasant stop-over at
fascinating Honolulu. While at the lat
ter place nearly everybody in the regi-
ment dined at the Royal Hawaiian Ho-
tel or at the beautiful new domicile on
the beach. At both places dances were
given in the Seventies honor, which
proved to be jolly affairs. The Hawai-
ian songs, in their romantic scenic set
tings, charmed as usual. Their ideal
fitness to tropical surroundings never
fails to attract even the unmusical
stranger. In courtesy to the visitors
several popular American songs of the
day We're given with good effect, one
of the prettiest being THE Congo Love
Song.p In the opinion of the listeners
no just criticism can be given that
selection until the critic hears it, as did
the delighted members of the Seventh,
sung by fine, clear tenor voice in a
tropical roof garden of moonlight
night.
The customary tourist routes were
done; the beach at Waikiki tried. the
tropical fruits enjoyed All too quickly
passed the days till the Sherman was
on its way again.
