EAGLES HAD
SWELL TIME
Members of Local Aerie Spread
Their Feathers at Pearl
Harbor.

The Eagles outing to Pearl Harbor
always furnishes a good time. and the
third annual kvent, which occurred
last night, was no exception to the
rule.
The members of the local aerie
which is No 140, together with their
relatives and friends, to the number
of some 500 in all, patronized the
picnic, and in consequence the nest of
the Eagles was well feathered.
The order is a popular one in Ho-
nolulu and its membership is con-
stantIy growing. Last years report
shows that the aerie did more prac-
teal good than any other fraternaF or
ganization in Hawaii.
AT 7:30< .. m. the word was given
to board the train, and eight full cars
bore the merrymakers to their desti-
nation at Pearl Harbor.
The big dancing pavilion had been
deliberately decorated with flags and
greenery and the sight was a pretty
one as the dancers whirled through
the mazes of the waltz or kept time
The night was as fine as could have
been desired and the moon shining on
the water of the harbor made a pretty
sight. 1t was pleasant to stroll along
the waters edge after dancing, revel-
ing in the pure air and the glory of
the night.
Dancing was carried on with vim
till II p. M, and every measure from
the grand march to the Home Sweet
Home walk was enthusiastically trod-
den and just as enthusiastically en-
cored
In the dancing pavilion, sandwiches,
cake and lemonade were served. Out
side the sterner sex found something
a little stronger, provided they had an
inclination that way.
The evening passed off without a
bitch, and the best of fellowship pre-
vailed.
When the time came to board the
train for home, everybody was sorry.
A good time had been had and it had
come to an end all too soon.
The committees responsible for the
success of the affair were as follows:
