An Unique Birthday Party.


This pretty party was planned by a
number of the lads schoolmates and
| proved delightful success. Each one
brought trifing gift and the boy had
to follow the instructions given by
these jingles. He was handed an en-
velope which contained this verse and
II started the festivities:
Good even, Little Birthday Child
Attention to this letter;
Go hunt within the music room,
Youll find "A gift that's better.
The package contained the follow.
Ing:
We wish you many happy days,
Now do not lose your head,
But hunt about the sitting room
Before you go TO bed
From the sitting room the merry
crowd were led by this verse to the
kitchen according to this rhyme:
You've found 1t; easy, was 1t not?
Don't stop. 'twOuld be a sin,
You'll find the brother of all this
The kitchen bright within.
As the gifts were unrolled and the
lines read excitement ran high and
every one acted as IL 1t was the first
time they had seen the articles. The
next move was to the dining room, as
these orders directed:
Now turn into the dining room.
And hunt from floor to ceiling.
And find a little chocolate
To swceten up your feeling.
The other verses are given and the
whole scheme is so clear that | am
sure many will welcome the sugges-
tion not only for birthday parties but
as a very enjoyable way in which TO
give Christmas gifts.
This affair was planned by n South
side girl and given for the son of one
of Chicago's famous singers. who now
lives in Paris, but chooses America as
the place for the lad to he educated

leadership fell to the lot of Queen Kaa-

son. King Liholiho, but the dying king
had wished it so.

white trader to tell him of the God of

God of whom the people on the Society
Islands already knew. The trader could
tell him nothing. so when missionaries
came to tie Islands in 1920, the queen
gave them cordial permission to land
and teach the truths that the old king
had longeI TO hear. And when, in
1924, the Princess Kapiolani went with
her retinue one day to the crater where
the goddess PeIe lived, to defy that
deity. and no evil came of so rash an
act, the general acceptance of the
