SCHOLARS DO CREDIT TO THEM
AS varied as are the private schools
of Honolulu in nationality of member
ship. so varied were the decorative
schemes and ideas carried out in the
automobiles of the school section, some
of the cars being both elaborate and
beautiful. There was no competition
among these automobiles, nor had
there been any among those of the
All Nations section, preceding it, the
participants working for the glory and
honor of their school alone.
Leading the section was the big car
of j. Quinn. carrying the representa-
xives of Kawaiahao. Beside the driv-
er was a particularly beautiful young
Hawaiian girl, representing her own
island home, while accompanying her
We're other young ladies, types of the,
nationalities attending the school. The
color scheme of this car was blue and
white, the ensemble being admirable.
Iolani College followed in Mcleod $
machine. draped in red bougainvilleas
and carrying a number OF the pupils of
the institution The massiveness of the
decoration on this car more than made
up for the simplicity of the design, the
machine being fairly covered with the
Drilliantly-hued leaves.
The Priory girls. in the Gartley ma
chine, made very effective showing,
a framework having been built around
the machine and twined with hundreds
of feet of lima ieis, the occupants be-
ing dressed in white and wearing leis
of the same bright hue as the car
colors. The background of the car.
black, carried out the school color idea.
The ladies occupying this machine
were Mrs. Alice Hoapili, Mary Wit
fington, Annie Hooking, Charlotte
Copp and Matilda Lemon. Chas. Ludin
was the chauffeur in charge.
Atherton's machine carried the pu-
pills from Mills Institute, represent
ing ancient and modern China. The
ancients were a trio. priest. soldier and
student, each appropriately gowned
while the present day student sat in
the front of the brightly decorated
machine and studied the canals OF
Mars through a four-foot telescope
Green and red was the color scheme
worked out in Oriental banners and
flowers. Frank Atherton. the driver
wore the costume of a Korean gentle
man.
Another Oriental car was that dec
GRATED by the pupils of the Methodist
Korean school. Clarence Cooke, attfr-
ed as an old time Korean, with pipe
of amazing size, and Mrs. Yoon, guard
ed three of the pupils of the school
dressed in their school uniform. The
car was beautifully decked in an ORR
entail way, lotus blooms of delicate
tints and sacred storks being used
with Korean and American flags.
The best float from purely loca
standpoint in the section and one in
which the idea had been carried out
to a greater nicely than almost any
other in the parade, was that Of the
AIiiolani college. representing Ha'
waifan canoe in full action. Four pad
diers swept the craft along. their chief
in full regalia. urging them on, while
a shoal of flying fish could be seer
darling away from the surge OF the
. outrirger. The credit for the faithful
ness of the costuming OF the occn'
pants of this float Is due TO Mrs. ka'
hea, although great credit is also due
the boys for the successful way II
which they carried out their part o.
the striking tableau.
