A very pretty dinner dance was CIV
en- on Monday evening by Miss Mulch
at her home in Kalihi Valley. The
table was tastefully arranged with
scattered maiden hair fern, with a
centerpiece of white roses. The lights
in the dining hall were softened by
cream colored shades, white clusters
of chrysanthemums we're suspended
from the chandeliers. The buffet roses
and string of mountain ferns cleverly
woven, were festooned overhead.
After dinner the guests repaired to
the drawing rooms where informal
dancing began. The Royal Hawaiian
Glee Club, furnished excellent music
during the evening. Among those pre-
sent were Miss Dreier, Miss Gay, Miss
Helen Gay, Miss Lucas, Messrs. Ernest
Parker, Arthur Gay, James Parker,
Robt. McCorriston, Ed McCorriston,
Merriam and Emory.

The members of the Myrtle Boat
Club are making arrangements for
benefit dance for the Oar Fund to be
given on the evening OF August 9th.
The affair will be held at their Boat
House, which will be gayly decorated
with flags for the occasion. Cunha's
Glee Club will furnish the music, and
a very enjoyable time assured for all
who attend. Tickets may be obtained
from members of the Boat Club for
fifty cents apiece.
My lady's latest headgear, the Tit
anic Russian toque,' is now on its
way West.
Those who have encountered this
new headpiece for women assert it
is the most startling affair the mill
ner has yet conceived. 1t is to all
intents, purposes and appearances the
bearsllin shake of the Old Guard. Some
women, it is true, VIII be content
with toques a foot high, but Madame
does not begin to he ''swagger'' until
the eighteen-inch stage is attained.
A consignment of these headpieces
always requires a dray, and when the
toque comes along a street it looks
like a shipment of ammunition for
guns.
The most important feature of the
new hat is that it requires a new
of hair. Rats must be
run away and the hair wadded up and
stuck on the top of the head in a
knob. The knob serves as a founda-
ton upon which to spike the sky
scraper Observation-Disclosures.

The end of July marked the close
of the London season, and, as usual,
it ended in a blaze of glory. Ameri-
cans, were zen evidence" at the ball
given by Ambassador and Mrs. White
law Reid to royalty. 1t is still the one
topic of conversation, far
in brilliancy and function
ever given, on account of the jewels
worn, if for no other reason.
Mrs. Reid's cousin, the Countess of
Granard, who has had the reputation
of wearing the handsomest gems, will
have to acknowledge Mrs, Joseph
her superior in this respect,
for at the ball Mrs. SticlIney was
ablaze with diamonds from the tips
of her King Edward plumes to the toes
of her satin slippers, which were be-
decked with buckles of the precious
stones and embroidered in tiny bril-
