Much attention is now paid in Ger
many to the remarkable measure of
success which has attended the in
~stallati0n of Prof. Korn's invention
for the transmission by wire Of pho

show that nearly as satisfactory re-

The only difficulty encountered on

| judges published and from what can
be heard in the small talk on all sides,
everyone of our most prominent So
ciety leaders is planning to take part
in some way. The grouping of the
judges seems to have been very care
fully planned and it is also notice
able fact that while the judges last
year were chosen from the most prom
inent society women Of Honolulu, the
same can be said of the judges for
this year and yet. with one or two
exceptions, there is an entirely new
set of judges.
1t has not been definitely stated so
far who will award the prizes for the
parade but it has been whispered that
Mrs. Geo. r. Carter is the one chosen
by the committee to decorate the win
ners. We hope this is true as the
selection would be a most happy one
as no one could more gracefully per-
form the duties than Mrs. Carter.
A new and very attractive innova-
ton has been introduced into the plans
this year through the joining in of the
three leading social clubs of Honolulu
in the entertainment provided for the
floral festival. The Elks Club has ex-
tended an invitation to those who are
classed in the driving and float section
of the parade to luncheon at their club
house on King street, directly after the
awarding of prizes at the baseball
grounds, and from one to three will
keep open house to all of those who
care to accept. The Pacific Club ex-
tends a like invitation to all the occu-
pants of the automobiles, both tour
ing cars and runabouts, to enjoy the
hospitality of their club and at lunch
con between the hours of one and three
and the University Club will entertain
the horseback riders at luncheon at the
University Club at the hame hours. A
luau will be given in the afternoon of
the 22nd for the pau riders and the
cowboys, the hour and place for which
have not yet been decided but will be
announced early in the week.
1t is anticipated that this generous
and public-spirited offer made by the
clubs and the committee will be ac-
cepted by all of those taking part in
the parade.
These general arrangements will add
very much to the social side of the
in extending the hospitality of their
several spacious and attractive homes
to the members of the parade is a de-
cided step towards placing the annual
event on the same footing as the Mardi
Gras of New Orleans and the Yelled
Prophet of st. Louis. Both of these
festivals are great social functions of
the respective cities. the Mardi Gras of
New Orleans being run and managed
exclusively by the leading mems social
clubs of that city and all invitations
to the Comus and Proteus balls, which
are features of the festival, are limited
TO invitations issued by the social
clubs. The general spirit throughout
the town which is being manifested
this year in favor of the parade is
most gratifying to those upon whom |
rests the responsibility of the general |

of the coming Floral Parade. which

many of Honolulu's smart set on horse>

any mainland town of double its size.
and this year Honolulu's best talent
will be represented. Couples riding in
much interest is being shown on the

This will be decidedly a social fea-
