 Miss Campbell received her guests look ing her loveliest in corn-colored gown fashioned of embroidered lingerie. Miss Gaston wore a blue linen three-piece cos tune heavily braided, and a becoming lingerie hat.

THE CITY CHURCHES
THE Y. M. C. A.

The directors of the Y, NJ C. A. will,
at the coming meeting, take up the
subject of employing a trained man
for the educational work of the Asso-
ciationu. The chart sent out from
New York headquarters, showing the
educational work of Associations
throughout the country gives Honolulu
an exceptionally high rank-higher, in
fact, than in some places where this
work is made the leading feature. With
a good director it is believed that there
will be great improvement.
1t is planned to have a social in
the Y. NJ. C. A. hall on-the eve of St.
Patrick's Day. or March 16. At that
time the decorations, Rotations, songs
and everything else will be Irish. An
Irish sherbet will be served and the
program will contain all the features
of modest Irish jubilee.
The educational class work of the
Association will close with the present
month and, as is customary through
out the United States and Canada ex-
aminations will be held and the papers
sent to New York for proper grading.
Thirty-two men, out of total mem
bership of 113, have signified their in
tention of taking this examination.

morning and charged with assault with
deadly weapon. the case then going

from the hospital At the request of
Harris, Attorney Il. A. Douthitt APP
peared for the accused in this preli-
minary hearing. Mr.. Douthitt moved
for bail, but this question also went
over until the fate of the injured man
is more certainly known. AS he ap-
peared in the court room, Harris face
bore ample testimony that his meet
ing with Parker was not altogether a
love affair. One of his eyes was near
ly closed and his face was knotted
from blows he had received. He had
plainly been handed a rough deal by
somebody.

PALOL0 CLUB
HAS MEETING

The Palolo improvement Club held
. meeting at the residence of A. f..
Cooke last evening, and first heard
reports. The Roards, Transit and Water
Supply Committee reported hard work
for the Palolo belt road and the KAT
muki reservoir, working up the de-
tails of each for the Legislative COM
mittee, and that the latter had made
GOOD use of the information 1t was
reported that the reservoir item had
been properly introduced in the Leg
isiature and that draft of the Pa
lolo belt road matter had been sub
mitted for approval.
Another important report received
was that of the club mouse committee.
showing that plans for a suitable
building were being prepared and, to-
gether with estimates would be ready
for submission before the next meet
ing.
The secretar presented ten applica-
lions for membership and these were
regularly elected.
The treasurer reported balance or
$40 in the bank and an otherwise
healthy condition of the club. The at
tendance was a very large one and
business was transacted In rapid and
methodical order.
An interesting part of the discus
sion was on the evident lapse or lack
of energy IN the central committee.
While the Palolo club is active and
enthusiastic, chronic laziness seems to
have taken possession of the head
body. No excuse for this is apparent,
either, for the reason that If the cen
tral committee keeps up enthusiasm
in the work of the clubs, that enthu-
siasm will of itself work back and
boost the efforts of the central COM
mittee.

 Another Deer in River.
 Recently, after heavy rains had rais- ed the Housatonic river, a large deer attempted to cross the, stream near the iron bridge in Falls Village. The cur rent carried the animal down stream where he was firmly held despite his struggles. A number of Falls Village people went to his assistance. One, by climbing out on a tree which extended over the water, had nearly reached the animal when. in fright, it made a last successful after which it made it's way. with much difficulty, to the opposite shore and disappeared in the woods.

Rain or shine he walked to work, lived in poor house, had but little encouragement from his home, but reported to me regularly and although he is now re- leased from proba ton he comes to see me Saturday nights, tells me his joys and his sorrows and I know that he will be a first class citizen.
 Each days work of a probation of ficer is a cross-section of many lives on children under his care. He should have a different purpose to carry out in the case of each child. Each time he sees the child,-his parents, friend, teacher or pastor, he should push in the direction of one or more of these purposes. In Chicago. dependent as well as delinquent children are put under probation in order that their parents may be stimulated to care properly for them. A typical days work might be as follows:
 Left home at S:30 and after an hours ride found J. R. at home in- stead of in school, taking care of the { baby because his mother was wash ing. Made few remarks that, it is hoped, will carry conviction to both Joe and his mother. Called at the school, to inquire about the Ms and V. w. Gratified to see all so clean, which is not always the case. Found 1 T. F. at home because she is out of work. She prefers work in hotel. Pointed out the dangers of hotel work.

 (Mr. Thurston is Chief Probation Of- ficer of the Chicago Juvenile court, one ,sof the first organized and gener- ally best equipped, Juvenile courts III the country. He is author Of nufflei- ous books on schools, juvenile courts and probation work, and an experle,ioe of nineteen years as a teacher naAes him particularly fitted to write OH any subject dealing with achlldren.)
 Say, Mister, is this the ouoit.nv h,, Court? asked a tn tnlrteehfy tee first et' week wee of o,,rrs occunation of our new Juvenile Court building.
 .Yes son what can l. do for your"
 s.T,swant to see my probation officer and have him send an officer to arrest my father to make him stop aisuns me-
 But why does he hit you?''
 "Ha says if take off these pants he'll hit me- ].
 But why do you want to take off the pants?" I asked. Aren't they all right?" No, they're too short and the boys at school and on the street laugh at me,-and I don't want to wear 'en.'
 I looked at him. His mother had indeed made a mistake in the adjust lnent of a pair of mems trousers to a boy and had cut them off so short that his red socks showed over the tops or lIis shoes. No wonder he wanted to take them off. I said, all right, NIT. M will be here in few minutes.
 The next day I asked the officer what he did about the trousers. ne said that at first nothing would do put to arrest the father but, as he talked over with the boy the number Of chll- Gren, how much a new pair of trous- CTS meant to them. how hard his father ;tnd mother worked. the possibility of soon getting to work himself,-and the bravery that many a poor boy mas shown in laughing down and outllv1ne the jeers of theughtless playmates, he changed, his mind and said: All right mother and all the children if I have him arrested. I guess he ain't so mean as I thought he was"
 Among the foreign born children who knGW American ways better than their parents, and among all cour, boys and girls who are just growine out of childhood toward manhood anc womanhood the probation officer has a great work in thus interpreting the child and his parents to one another.
 Many children under probation arc of working age and should be looked after. The following report illus trates a picturesque side of a probation officers work:
 A boy was returned from the Johr Verify school January 1, 1907. Ht was released and paroled to me and secured position for him soon aftel his release He worked every day ant last winter when the firm was layint off most of its help, and in my anxiet! for his welfare telephoned to his em ployer asking him to retain the bo. if p6ssfble, and shes pleased me mucl by saying: Fire him; I guess not. keep him if keep him as watchman There is good stuff in that boy" H
