The plain shirt waist always finds an
honored place in the up-to-date
woman's wardrobe, for it is much too
practical to be dispensed with. The
present fashion for the neat, tailored
waist worn with the stiff linen collar
and bow or jabot of lace or null is a
most admirable one and is much appre-
ciated by the smart dresser. Here ia
sketched waist of modish simplicity
which is suitable for development in
any of the popular tub fabrics, striped
madras being used in the present in
stance. The waist is closed on the
left side of the front and is quite
plain except for the tucks over the
shoulders, which add appreciably to
the modish effect of long lines The
sleeves are full length and finished
in tailored style. Any preferred collar
and tie may be worn with the waist In
the medium size the waist requires 31z
yards of 24-inch material to make.

NEAR JOKE MAY RESULT
IN SOMETHING LIKE TRAGEDY

A near-joke perpetrated down town
yesterday will probably have tragic
ending. A young lawyer from San
Diego ran up to Los Angeles just to
see a classmate client. He found a
note at the Alexandra requesting him
to wait five minutes. In three minutes
the telephone rang. Acting on the
impulse the attorney answered. He
knew the voice. In a flash his MEM
DRY carried him back to college days.
He wildly recalled the beauty of the
one coed in all the university for
whom he had the slightest tender feel
ing. He remembered how his chum
had won her. An irresistible desire
to tease her swept over him.
rs that you, Fred"
Eyes, sweetheart. it's me. Say,
the Angelus?"
(The woman's name is not Maurine.
After a pause she replied:
Eat the hotel. Why do you ask?"
"Oh, 1 thought l might run down
and have a wee bit dinner tonight"
"All right: come If you WISH
AS the villain hung up the receiver
the victim entered.
Hello. Fred! l want to talk to you.
Come out and dine with me. Call
your wife and tell her you won't be
out to dinner"
And Fred fell for it. If he sees this
there is likely to be something doing
when a certain San Diego lawyer re-
turns to Los Angeles.
Arthur S. Ouchenclaus of Redlands

NJ. j. Cochrane of Rawhfde, New, a

VERY IMPRESSIVE
SUNDAY SERVICE

Music of a very high order will be
a feature of the Elks Memorial Day
services to be held next Sunday after
noon at the Opera House. A violin
number by Mr.. Rudolf j. Buchly, ac-
companied on the piano by Mrs. l..
Tenney Peck, will be especially well
worth hearing. Mr.. ID. p. r. Isenberg,
member of Honolulu Lodge No. GIG
b. P. o. E., is on the program for two
vocal selections. A double male
quartette also has several numbers,
while the Honolulu Concert Orchestra,
F. j. Vierra, director, will furnish in
strumental music of high order.
The Elks have a high reputation all
over the United States for the beauty
and impressiveness of their Memorial
Service which is held on the first Sun
day of December each year. Homo
lulu Lodge has lived we'll up to this
reputation heretofore, and the program
this year will be even better than here
tofore.
Although a large number of invita-
lions have been sent out, they are In
tended simply as reminders, and no
one should feel that they are any the
less welcome on account of not having
received one 1t is obviously impossi-
BILE to reach everybody in this manner
and Honolulu Lodge hopes to have all
friends of the order attend the services
and all brother Elks are reminded that
it is their duty to not only come them
selves, but to see that their families
and friends come also.

IMPROVED CAR
SERVICE MAY WAIT

The question of a ten-minute sche-
dule for both Liliha street and Kali
muH is not by any means settled as
yet. While the Supreme Court has
held that the Territorial courts have
not the right to compel the Rapid
Transit to give such service as they
may direct, there is another phase of
the matter which may bring the resi-
dents of both districts what they de-
sire.
1t is held by the Attorney Generals
department that the power to make
such changes as are needful rests with
the Governor of the Territory and
is subject to review by the courts only
when an abuse of this authority has
been shown to exist. The Rapid Tran
sit on the other hand holds that the
initiative in such matter must come
from the company and not from the
Executive.
The Liliha street people, as soon as
they have found out exactly what the
decision from Washington means, will
take the matter up with Governor
Frear, from whom they expect to gain
favorable ruling. If he decides that
the Liliha street service should be one
of the ten-minute variety, the case will
probably be appealed again and anoth-
err wait of a year or more experienced
the Kaimuh people awaiting an i'm
proved service in the meantime.
The news of the decision came as
surprise to the Liliha street faction.
for the printed record of the case had
never been sent to their attorney, E.
C. Peters, who handled the case in
both the Circuit and Supreme courts in
this Territory. The matter was han
died by him in the name of the Terri
tory, through permission received from
the Governor and the Attorney Cen
eral. After the case had been APP
pealed it was taken from his hands,
however without notice.

NARROW
ESCAPE

Collins Senior narrowly escaped in
jury at 1 o'clock this afternoon
through a meat wagon being crashed
into his buggy outside the store of
Collins, the harnessmaker, ON King
street.
The old gentleman was seated in
his rig, his horse standing quietly,
when a runaway horse drawing meat
delivery wagon dashed across Fort
street and came his way so quickly he
had no chance of getting out of the
line of collision.
The meat wagon struck his rig, bent
the front axle and upset the buggy
horse, throwing Collins out of his
seat. He held on to the buggy top
and escaped being hurled to the
ground.
| No damage was done beyond the
slight injury to the buggy and a shak'
ing up to Mr. Collins.

art of drawing, painting, photograph
ing, modelling, etc, in the different
mediums.
Everyone is invited to come and

HALEIwA ON SUNDAY.

Visitors to Honolulu Should not
overlook HaleIwa in arranging an It'll
nerary for their stay in the islands.
1t is a beautiful spot and the ride over
the Oahu Railway line is interesting,
Nowhere in the country is there a
railroad running so close to the shore
that the sea spray moistens the cars
This is especially the case at this
time when the wind is In a direction
that makes an exceedingly high surf
along the line. The Haleiwa limited,
leaving on Sunday morning, makes the
run in two hours.
