became acquainted with many jap
anese children.
friends) decided to give a tea party
in celebration of her birthday. Eva
was invited and she and the rest of
the guests were met at the door by
Cherry Blossom and her mother. After
elaborate bows had been made they
seated themselves on the floor
The room was daintily trimmed with
cherry blossoms and pink crepe paper.
The mats on which they sat were
painted with cherry blossoms and
each maiden's kimono was embroid-
cred with the same flower.
Cherry Blossoms mother brought an
alphabet game. 1t is played some
thing like we play "Old Maid" only
at the end of the game the one who
has the last letter of the alphabet is
loser The loser must have her hair
mixed with straw. Eva tried her best,
but she lost and her hair was mixed
with straw.
Cherry Blossoms mother now
brought each maiden a little tea table.
Tea was served with rice cakes.
After tea the tables were cleared
away and the curtain that separated
that room from the next suddenly
flew up. There were actors and sing
ers. They gave a short play, after
which one of them did slight of hand
tricks.
At the close of this performance the
hostess and her guests went for a
ride in their jinrickishas.

When the children came they each
gave Helen a present. Lima gave her
a blue bonnet, Dorothy gave her a
hair ribbon and Jean gave her a pair
of shoes.
Then we all went out on the lawn
and played drop the handkerchief for
a little while. Then we went in the
house and sat down at the table to
eat. Helen's plate was turned over.
We looked under it and saw a beauti-
full silk dress. 1t was pink and trim
med with lace. We knew that it was
from mamma.
We ate good dinner. When we got
through we played few games.
When they went home they said

We played hide and seek. tag, London

the house and played the piano, sang
songs, spoke pieces.
We had refreshments which consisted
of candy rabbits and chickens and
basket of candy Easter eggs at each
place.
A large cake stood in the middle of
the table; it was decorated with birds
and roses in green and white frosting;
it also had my name and year OF
birth on it.
Ice cream and fruits completed the
refreshments.
AS the children started for home
they said it was the best time they
had had in some time. Lovingly,

HAVE BIRTHDAYS TOGETHER

Dear Aunt Laurie:
Nearly four years ago my sister
Ruth and her chum Rose, whose birth
days were the same day, decided 10
have a party. 1t was their twelfth
birthday. Mother had to go away for
the day, so we were going to have II
fixed up fine to suit ourselves.
First of all, they ordered a nice big
cake NY! what a shame it seemed to
cut it; it was so pretty. On 1t was
written "a Happy Birthday to Ruth
and Rose" Next we bought bonbons
and chocolates.
Then next l wrote the invitations
and sent them out. Florence, Irene
and Ollie Walter were the only girls
who couldn't accept. All this we did
Friday, as the party was on Saturday.
How happy we all were, as 1t was the
first party we had had for long time.
Saturday proved a delightful day.
The sun seemed to shine brighter than
ever. Rose, Ruth and / went down to
the creamery as so'n after dinner as
we could and bought a dollars worth
of ice cream.
The party was to begin at O'Clock
sharp. All were there early but Fran
ces. and we had to go after her.
Our youngest guest, little Beryi, was
years old. What a good time we
had! We opened it by games.
One game, pin the tail on the DON
key" was a prize game, Rose winning
the prize. There was one more prize
game I don't remember what 1t was.
We plaid musical chairs next. Some
of the girls offered to recite some
pieces.
AS this was going on, much to our
surprise my cousin Alice and her little
how Howard came, which made things
merrier.
At 4:3O the luncheon was served,
Thelma and l acting as mattresses.
After that the birthday gifts We're
presented. All went home with happy
hearts, declaring they had a good
time. ESTHER VARLEY.

Dear Aunt Laurie:
One day mamma let me have a tea
party. The sun was shining brightly.
The first thing 1 did was to go and
tell a few of my friends that it was
my dolls birthday and 1 was having
a birthday party for her.
The girls all agreed to come in the
afternoon. Then began to get things
ready. First / began to put my little
set of dishes on the table. / put on
five plates, one for Dorothy, one for
Lima, one for my sister Jean, one my
doll, whose name is Helen, and one
for myself. 1 put a glass full of lem

Then mamma made some sandwiches

the door was an immense pumpkin

In the parlor on the plate rails were
little gourd lanterns with grinning
faces, and from the gas jet hung
grinning pumpkin.
The other rooms were decorated IN
much the same manner.
AS the children came up the walk
a ghost from each side of the walk
stepped out behind them and lightly
tapping them on the shoulder beckoned
them to follow, leading them to their
rooms to remove their wraps.
On hearing a scream we all rushed
out to the walk, and there, face down,
lay Dorothy Lee.
The ghost hastily explained that she
had tapped her on the shoulder and
frightened her so that she tainted

about to pick her up and some were

After playing many Halloween jokes

where the girls put on hats and shawls
and other things and then walked IN

their shadows, would guess who IT

OLD MAIDS TEA AND CAT RACE
PROVE GOOD Entertainment
HONORABLE MENTION
Dear Aunt Laurie:

Dear Aunt Laurie:
I RECEIVED an invitation to an
'old maids tea" last summer,
which was written with white ink
on black paper shaped like cat. The
wording was as follows:
Hear ye! Ye are cordially invited
to ye Old Maids Tea on Saturday
afternoon. Please come as an old
maid"
The afternoon was clear and sunny,
and at an early hour 1 went to my
friends home. AS 1 drew near the
house seemed to be deserted, and I
paused a moment. wondering if had
mistaken the date But q slip of pa
per on the door directed me to a side
door and from there to the attic.
l could hear shrieks of laughter,
which fastened my steps upward, and,
opening the door, I found myself in
the midst of several priln old maids.
My hostess dropped ar o!d-fashioned
courtesy, which 1 tried to initiate,
and said, primly:
'WilI you not have some tea?"
I thanked her, but declined any re-
freshment. Then we sat chatting un-
til the rest had arrived.
"The first game is a cat race" was
announced. The door was op ned and
several kittens scampered in. Each
had colored ribbon about it's neck.
Now" said the hostess, "the cat
which first crosses the white line de-
notes that the girl to whom it belongs
will be first to marry
The race began, but the cats stub
bornly refused to cross the line. The
girls We're in despair. Shall we all be
old maids?" one cried. Then one kit
ten, seeing a bright object on the
other side, scampered toward it, the
rest in pursuit, and all crossed the
line together.
Other games played were an apple
peeling contest and a quilting bee.
Tea and cakes were served, and we
all declared that we had had a lovely
time. LOIS WAGNER,

old wistaria arbor, and certainly Moth

We did not see any more of grandma
till we went in the parlor, and there
in grandfather's chair sat grandmother
in her wedding dress, looking as sweet
and lovely as could be. Grandmother
told us the story of each dress and suit
we wore, which was the happiest thing
possible. PEARL JOHNSON,

Dear Aunt Laurie:
When was 10 years old my mother
gave me a birthday party. l invited
eighteen children and most of the girls
wore crepe paper dresses, some of
pink, some blue, old rose and green.
1t was near Easter, so the table was
decorated with rabbits, chickens and
garlands of flowers. The shades were
down and the lights were covered with
red crepe paper which gave a pretty
red glow over the room.
The party began at half past two in
the afternoon and everyone came
promptly, wearing their pretty paper
dresses and showered me with gifts.

TAKADANA WAS A
MODEL JAPANESE

B Takadana, a japanese, who tickles
the soil out Manoa Valley way, and,
incidentally, leads the life of an az
riculturist or small farmer, declared
before Judge Andrade aud the as
sembled officers at the police court
this morning that, despite the fact
that he had resided in Honolulu for
over three years, he could not swear
or even speak in the English Ian
guage,
A twelve-year-old lad named Don
aid Brown testified that he had met
the japanese on Mauna Loa road on
Sunday afternoon. Both parties were
on horseback. The youngster declar-
ed that the Japanese attempted to
run him down and when he failed
to unhorse him employed well-ac-
centuated and torrid string Of vitu-
peration and cuss words to properly
vent HIS spleen.
Takadana was found guilty despite
his positive denial. and the court be-
lieyed that ten dollars and costs
would materially assist In spreading
the healing balm to the injured
Brown feelings.
