BY MRS. RIVENBURGH.

Floral Parade caused gay time
when Mr.. Liang Kuo Ying received
between the hours Of two and three
thirty.
The Hawaiian Band was in attend
ance, whose efforts were seconded
by a Chinese orchestra, which sup
piled oriental touches from the ar
tistic little temple seen in the line
of parade. In the grounds con-
spicuously arrayed lay full length
the huge Chinese lion, whose sin
uous movements on the representa-
tive float were so grotesque, and at
intervals the "Play OF the Lion, "
which is an institution in the far
east, was a spectacle worth viewing.
An oriental fencer, with elaborately
carved silver massive foil, lunged
and guarded at the apparently fu-
ricus attacs of the beast to the de-
lectation Of the guests and a photo
graph of it was taken with the blue
pennant awarded by the judges held
aloft This lion was accompanied by
several banners of magnificent rich
embroideries, which, no doubt, were
a prominent feature to catch the ex-
perienced eye of the malahines re-
viewing the parade.
Champagne, in which toasts to
the health of the baby ruler were
drunk, sandwiches, salads and ices
were served, and among those re-
ceiving with Consul Liang Kwo
Ying were Secretary Shay, Secret
tary Pao Tung, the new English sec
retary, Mr.. Tong, and several prom
inent members of the Chinese Mer-
chants Association.
Mrs. A. G.. Halves, Jr., departed
this morning for Hutchinson Plant
alton on Hawaii, for a short visit
with her husband and friends, who
are residing there.
Mrs. Halves has been perhaps the
most feted of the smart set since
her arrival in Honolulu after her
long absence, and even now func-
tions are being planned for her on
her return here, which will be on
the eighteenth of March.

ening with a dinner dance in honor
of the paper wedding of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harold Dillingham;
Arcadia" was a bower of lights,
and the scene within was charming
the daintiest shades of ping being
the feature of the color tone. Ella
borate pink paper roses, with pink
streamers as ribbons, were the de-
cocations and the guests, numbering
Eighteen, were seated at two tables,
at which paper table cloths, servi-
cites end place cards predominated,
and mirth and fun making the even
irg a delight.
Afterwards music was provided
for the dancing, which lasted till the
wee small hours.
A very handsomely appointed
dinner was that given last evening
by DR.. and Mrs. James Judd at their
home on Prospect street.
The house was made dainty by
touches of green in overhanging
baskets of lace maidenhair ferns,
and palms in rich jardlnieres placed
about the spacious lanai, overlooking
wonderful expanse of sea and
landscape, and in the drawing room
while the dining room was done in
tones of red and green, great sprays
of bougainvillia intermingling with
ferns and trailers.
On the table was a large center
piece of the sasme while candelabra
with pale green silk shades added a
delicate touch of color to the en-.
semble. Those present were DR. and
Mrs. Cooper, Mr.. and Mrs. Ranny
Scott, Miss Thatcher, Miss Christman,
Mr.. R. E. Wright and DR.. Ramus.
