THE CLUBS WELCOME.

The oregon girls, chaperoned as
usual by Mrs. Edith Tozier Weather
red, and number of friends, left Ho-
noluu for Pearl Harbor on the 2:l5
train. Before reaching the harbor the
| sky cleared and the remainder of the
day was ideal. especially for lazy
cruising At the Peninsula various
members of the club, headed by Com
modore II. +. Cooper, and assisted by
Mrs. Clarence Macfarlane and Mrs.
| Noonan, greeted the visitors and es-
corted them first to the dancing pa
vilion, which was decorated with
! flags and then to the clubhouse over
| looking the harbor. The fiagstaff was
surmounted by the clubs pennant, ana
long string of signal flags reached
| from the top of the pole to the ground.
Flags fiuttered from every point Of
vantage along the shore.
out on the smooth harbor seven or
eight yachts swung idly at their moor
ings, sails half up and the boats ready
to slip the lines and speed away. Ire
launch Julie, owned by eX-Commodore
| Clarence Nacfarlane, lay at the Mac
farlane wharf and the launch Of the
| Commercial Pacific Gable Company's
/ steamer Restorer, which had made the
| trip down from Honolulu in the fore
noon, was at the main wharf, steam
up, and ready to convey guests to the
various yachts.
First of all the photographers claim
| ed the attention of the guests and the
Oregon girls were grouped before the
clubhouse other visitors forming
background, and some excellent pic
lures We're secured. Passing through
the Macfarlane premises and down the
| wharf a crowd was taken out in the
cable launch and distributed on the
flagship Gladys, captained by eX-Com-
modore Hebron, and the Spray cap
tanned by ex-Commodore Picker. An
other launch-load was placed aboard
Captain Lyle's yacht Hawaii. These
three boats took all the Oregonians
and their friends Other visitors
went aboard the yachts Clytie, Irish,
Myrtle and Malolo.
A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT.
A beautiful sight was presented as
all the yachts got away for cruise
around Ford's Island Each vessel
carried the club pennant as well as n
string of signal flags, and the commo-
dore's flag was raised on the Gladys.
A fairly good breeze caught the sails
at the start and they sped swiftly
down the loch in the direction of the
| channel. Under the clear sky and in
the bright sunlight prettier picture
has hardly ever been, presented on the
fascinating lochs of Pearl Harbor.
Bowled over until rails were awash,
the yachts We're objects of Interest 10
all and especially to those who had
cameras. The two launches followed
the yachts, the cable craft carrying
Mr.. Barnesson and several officers or
the Restorer, and their guests who
We're Mrs. Taylor of Chicago, Miss
| Genevieve Rix of San Francisco and
Mr.. r. c. A. Peterson.
In most instances this cruise was the
first ever experienced by the Oregon
girls and they found it a fascinating
sport. 1t was not long before they
broke into song, the refrain from one
boats party being taken up by those
on nearby boats In lacking, boats
passed and repassed, but finally the
Hawaii sped ahead and rounded the
island and came to the anchorage far
ahead of the others. AS Mrs. Wealth
erred, the chaperon of the Oregon
party, was aboard the Hawaii, this
was looked upon as happy coinci-
dence and Captain Lyle was warmly
congratulated for his skill. During
most OF the cruise a fair yachtswoman
was at the wheel.
