image and after his likeness. There is a divine element in our nature thoughts in the facts of nature as well as in the words of Scriptures.
 The natural world is a product of thought developed and governed by a system of divine laws that are al ways in force. God has planned and made laws by which we live. breathe, walk, see, hear, think, talk and learn the meaning of things. How our Heavenly Father has planned the universe for mans com fort and how thankful and happy man should bel
 Mark the difference between the accomplished Christian gentleman and man in his uncivilized state and then be thankful for the Gospel and what the discovery Of the laws Of nature has done for you. Open your mind to see how God planned the laws of steam and electricity in keeping with mans capacity to util- ize these forces and thus bring joy and comfort to human hearts. Go through your house, look and think as you go. You will see things of art and culture everywhere-books, magazines, newspapers, pictures, and cenveniences, and works of art bearing the marks of the divine in man, which means you who look. When in the city you may look around and notice the buildings, and works of man, and remember that the people who have done all these wonderful things are members of your family. God is their father and he has given them a task you could not do. They are doing the work and you are getting the benefit of it.
 God has given every person re- ngious nature. It Is source of great comfort and joy. Are you weary? "I will give you rest" Let not your heart be troubled My peace I leave with you" These are Gods promises. They should mean much to us. Are you poor and home less?

though the villain is usually done I'D
near the end of the play he has a de-
hghtfully soft snap making love, more
or less successfully, until the final
comes. Godfrey Brown had the leading
comedy part in that play and he played
so well that it was difficult for others
in the cast to maintain proper gravity
where gravity was called for. Letting
my thoughts 90 back to those DAVIS I
am convinced that there wa. no anna

mannerisms. which even you remember,
purely natural to him, were as amusing
to the audience as the famous skip in
troduced in the play American Cousin
by the late f. A. Sothern. who PLAYED
Lord Dundrearv. This statement will
be questioned by those in Honolulu who
know Mr.. Brown only as the treasurer
of the Mutual Telephone Company.

life Of the club was w. S. Gilbert g
Engaged a three-act comedy in which
the secret Of the fun produced is large

Inconsistencies of the actors while ex-
pressing the most prepOsterous senti-
ments and ideas. Some difficulty was
experienced in getting some one to plav
the part Of Major Magilicuddv. which
was not surprising as the character was
not on the stage more than two minutes
and the members of the company were
looking for something better. Unless
l am mistaken his lines consisted of two
words I'm agillicuddv.' AT last an
obhging temporary resident of Homo
lulu was found to take the mart

vide his costume.
- He gave the study of his lines much
thought, but when he appeared on the
stage at the critical moment, pistol in
hand and the curtain about to fall his
hancee falnting in the arms of another
man and speed as the LAWYERS wouId
say, the essence of the contract his
memory failed him and he forgot his
lines. While his fancee and the other
fellow were softly swearing to each

him IN low whispers. he regained his
senses with rush and emphaticallv de-
clarlng that he was 'Magillv Buddy

no doubt to his.

eve had men with Us who never
became members of the dramatic club;
for instance, Walcott Morse, son of
the late Captain Morse, who for years
was master of the Alameda Billy
Hoogs, Clarence Macfarlane and Billy
Armstrong. the foreman of the Gazette
Company when George Macfarlane own
ed the paper. In fact Armstrong was
brought from San Francisco by Colonel
Macfarlane to take the place. They
took part in both musical and dramatic
productions that were given during the
years in which I had connection with
the club.
Our first attempt was with the three
act comedy, "All that Glitters is not
Gold" You must remember that am
speaking of an era when old English
comedies We're favorites with theater-
going people. I mention this because
this play seems to the average old fell

the life of this club and by other or

the book On one occasion he took the
cue and entered saying, my lord -
and there he baked. Repeating it
several times and then grasping at a
straw, he said what he thought was
right, but as it was very wrong, the
late Ed. Macfarlane, who was in the
wings, picked up an empty barrel and
let fly. The amateur never again APP
peared here.
According to Mr.. Brown, The Ad-
vertiser was very kindly disposed to-
ward the amateurs in those days, and
unstinted praise was the result IN the
issue after every performance.
II was reading some of the press
notices the other day." remarked he,
"and I could not help smiling, for the
reading brought to my mind an oc-
currence that was not looked for. Inc
local notices inspired the thought
among our players that Irving, Terry,
Mansfield and some of the other al
legged actors We're well enough in their
way. but they had not reached the
standard set at the Opera House. 1

lating a little incident in connection
with the matter of press notices. Some
Of the actors, more particularly some
of the ladies. had expressed the wisn
that the paper would be less fnlsome IN
its praise; more discriminating. You

the ears Of the late Henry Castle, who

next play by commenting the play

of our best known Honolulu Eswells,
now absent As / remember il. we gave
after the Widow Hunt, which was in
December, 'S3, A Scrap of Paper, but
that was several years later. The cast
for the Widow Hunt was:
"Felx Weatherly, J. F. Brown;

and the old Opera House was packed
with the best people of the city in

well trained. and the memory of them
comes TO me now with a strong desire
to hear them again. Our Poo Bah of
sThe Mikado' was William Levers,
now PLAYING in THE Climax with
one Of the big New York companies.
Faxon Bishop sung the part of the
Lord High ExecutiOner and Billy
Hoogs was the Wandering Minstrel.
His singing struck the audience as be-
ing about the right thing and he was
always literally applauded. "Doc. -
Monsarrat was in evidence but not as
a vocalist He was an attendant
whose songs were sung in silence.
''The musical director was a Prof.
SauveIet. good pianist and conductor
and not lacking in sound business acu-
men. In addition to the payment 20
him for the numerous rehearsais II was
agreed that he receive One-half OF the
receipts of the third and last perform
ance. On that occasion when the
bouse was packed and the curtain
ready TO go up he came back and in
formed Us that he would have all Of
the receipts or no music. We were in
= tight place and we had to come to
his terms. Faxon Bishop viii remem-
her this incident for he was the treas
nerer and was especially interested.
The Mikado was given as a benefit
to some local organization and the re
ceipts were in the neighborhood of So
400 with an expense list of forty dol
lars less than that sum. Gorgeous jap
anese costumes, stage fittings and nee
essary refreshments were expensive.

part and which became his personai
property after the show. The bin for
them, by the way, amounted to nine
dollars and as he had but two words
to utter you can easily figure oue the
cost per word TO the elub.''
This lapse of memory on the parr
of the man who played Magillicuddv
calls to mind a similar circumstance
occurring in the old ROYAL Theater on
Hotel street, before the DAYS of the
Opera House 1t was related to me bv
Fred Macfarlane, after conversation
with him in which the MagilHcuddv
episode was mentioned. 1t seems that
in those very old days there was a
stage-struck auctioneer here who was
willing to spend any kind of money
in order to acquire fame on the stage.
He was east for part in "'The Lady
of Lyons and one of his lines read,

other actors were on, and he could be
