MANILA, November 2S.-The Army
and Navy Club gave a brilliant re-
ception tonight in honor of the off,
GERS of the Atlantic battleship fleet.
The clubhouse was splendidly decora-
ted with flags and tropic plants and
brilliantly illuminated. Over two hun
dred officers of the Navy were pre-
sent.
The receiving line included Mrs.
Major-General Weston, Mrs. General
Mills, Mrs. Colonel Pratt, Rear-Ad-
miral Potter, General Mills and Col
onels Mills and Pratt. Practically ev-
cry officer of the Army stationed a,
Manila and Fort Mckinley was in at
tendance, as were also Governor-Gen-
eral Smith and many prominent peo-
pie of the islands and the scene was
a brilliant one.
The storm which has prevailed dur
ing this week apparently has broken
and the weather during the remain
ing two days of the fleets visit pro-
misses to be pleasant.
Is one of the prerequisites of en-
trance into the sacred realm of San
Francisco society to be the ability to
dance the hula-hula?
Ned Greenway, social arbiter, dicta-
tor and king is going to the cannibal
islands to learn the lissome pleasing
of the native dance, and the rumoI
runs that when he returns he will in
troduce it at the city's selectest socia
functions. Greenway has long beer
known for his agile grace in waltz
and two-step, and in leading the sinu'
Gus mazes OF the german. Age has no
hobbled nor adipose enchanted the ia
cility of his feet. Lansing Mizne
once said of him that he walked likt
an injured hotel porter, but neithe
wit nor rival has ever impugned hi
ability to dance so that "the sun upol
winters day was not so fine a sight.
But society yearns for something
new. 1t wearies of the waltz; thu
deuXtemps inks it, and the square
dance, the gallop and the polka hav'
long since gone to join the minuet

Tyre. What more natural than tina

should go forth into the world to brinl

So Greenway, arbiter elegantiarum
has asked permission to fare out upoI
the seas and to the far islands of thu
unbrided MAN. there to inspect anC
learn the soft sea-island motions O
the native dance. Upon his return tt
his native shores, his social kingdom
and his waiting subjects he will, NJ
doubt impart his hard-bought knowl
edge to others and perhaps make pro
ficiency in the languorous hula a stint
qua non of social prestige and dis
tinction.
Greenway, rex ct impe-ator, has no
yet definitely announced the date o
his departure to seek the new dance, a
Don Quixote sought the helmet O
Mambrino, but he says he is going Il
Hawaii soon, and deftly puts his deli
cate mission on the ground of
wheeze, quincy and an impendin
bronchitis. But society is not deceiv
