BOUQUET FOR
BASEBALL

The Maui News hands the national
game the following bunch of compli-
ments, in the current issue:
Tomorrow a game of baseball will be
played at Wells Park and should be
attended and supported by the entire
community for the reason that it is
clean. manly, healthful sport and
affords q diversion and recreation for
those who are so situated that some
thing of the kind must be provided.
All who are at all acquainted with
conditions as they existed here in
Waikiki know that few years ago
this was the worst gambling hell in
the islands and on Sundays many
young men We're wont to seek the Sc
clusion of some private room and play
poker as long as their money or credit
lasted.
Baseball broke this entirely up and
afforded a recreation that completely
took it's place.
To the young men of Kahului, more
than to anyone else. are we indebted
for the revival of this healthful and
manly sport.
Let all lend them every encourage
ment and support.

 Chrixtmas Day.


 Christmas Day.
 Christmas Is the children's day. and for one day at least their elders should try to enter Into the spirit of Christ mastide and make it truly a day of re- joicing and fix In their fertile minds the reason of its celebration.
 The wise mother will make arrange ments whereby the breakfast shall be served at half past on that one morn ing of the year. and until the children have had their breakfast they cannot have their bursting stockings. Mothers know the danger the children run in eating candles, nuts, etc. before break fast, and 1t would really be asking too much of children to walt the ordinary, hour. So after they have had their breakfasts more or less quietly let them begin their search for their stock ings. .- { If there Is 10 be tree In the evening the bulk of the presents should be up- on that. and carefully selected home made candies, with apples and oranges, f1ll the stockings, but stockings there must be. One exceedingly wise mother makes the most delicious popcorn balls. and In the sirup she sureptltiously In corporates a good dose of cascara sa- grada. The children eat these with ap- petite, and no doctor Is called out to attend ailments Christmas night.
 Some persons prefer to avoid the toll and danger of tree and invent many different plans for the holding of gifts One of then Is in the form of an enor~ nous pastesoard pie, from which pro trude ribbons with each guests name and to which the gifts hidden In the pie are attached. X spider web is an- other plan, but more costly. Still an- other is the blue hens nest. when the presents are hidden in fireproofed straw.
 After breakfast those who can go to church should do so. while the others should be encouraged to so out to play or walk If the weather permits. If it doesn't 1t devolves upon the big sisters and brothers and other children's big brothers and sisters to get the children off Into the biggest and least furnished room In the house and there play the oiu laSuioueh games WHICH never ip&c their zest with children. They are blind mans bun. pussy wants cor ner. blow the feather and other time honored games. True. they are noisy. But who cares for noise on Christmas day?
 After church the family all join in games a trifie less noisy perhaps. but we'll liked. But Christmas without noise would be a lugubrious affair and one calculated 10 hide the real mean ing of 1t to the children.
 The dinner on this day of days should be much earlier than usual. as no luncheon Is provided. since everybody Is nibbllng from early morning. and no one Is hungry.
 After dinner there Is a slight lull In the noise. as every one Is too full for utterance. until 1t Is time to light the tree. If the room Is large enough to permit of it, the whole company should join hands and dance around the tree three times, singing the old Christmas carol:

How to Buy Plants For christmax.

How to Buy Plants For Christmas.
 Other things being equal, It is better to buy plants at Christmas time near ones home than to travel afar, says the Garden Magazine. Do not be tempted even by cheap offers to go miles away, for. counting car fares. packing, cxpressage and lost time. the ultimate cost Is very likely to Sc more than if you had paid a good deal high er' price at home. Of course 1t may happen that one grower or florist has a large stock of some one thing and can sell at low rate. but dealers usu- ally have an understanding with one another. especially regarding holiday prices. and for weeks before the holi- day season they have been balancing stock with each other, so that the bet ter quality plants are of an almost fixed value. Any specially low price Is nearly always associated with q corresponGingly low grade in the plants offered. A byvord among dealers in plants Is. If you have to shade your price you can always shade your stock" Plants differ from ordinary merchandise in the risk of damage during transit. They may he frozen or injured during delivery and still not show the effects for q day or two. perhaps not until after the bill has been paid. A reputable dealer always assumes the risk and will replace the damaged specimens.
