Captain and Mrs Fay, the former
ranking officer of the U. S. Marine Ser
vice in this city, have returned from

tertained by the naval set. They are

No football game, at least none that
amounts to anything, for Thanksgiving
Day. That does seem a pity. To
those who have lived in the East a
Thanksgiving Day without it's attend

Governor Frear has left us for the
mainland, accompanied by two of the
pleasantest people whom Honolulu So
ciety has ever greeted, Mr. and Mrs.
F. H. Newell. Mr. Newell has shown
himself in this city not only to be an
expert engineer, and one with a pecu-
liar capacity for the understanding OF
immense problems at a few minutes
notice, but also to be a most charming
social companion. His wife has made
friends in this city who will always re-
member her visit in Honolulu with
pleasure and who certainly hope to see
her once more.

place a week from today, will be very

at the Opera House on Friday anC
Saturday, should be well worth see
