SOCIAL NEWS OF THE DAY.


Last evening was the scene of a very
merry party at Kaimuki, when Mr..
Stanton, representing the Kaimuki
Land Company, entertained a large as
sembly of guests at the christening of
their new boulevard.
Motoring out where the fresh night
breezes blow from Koko Head the
party gathered at the entrance of the
avenue, and after several Introductory
gave a review of the situation of the
new suburb, and outlined it's future
growth and development, after the
erection of the sixty thousand dollar
public school, Miss Wilhelmina Ten
ney stepped forward and holding high
a bottle of champagne, broke it over
one of the huge rustic stone gate
posts saying, 81 name thee Wilhelmina
Rise"
The sweet strains of a Hawaiian
quintette drifted melodiously on the
still night air, and later the whole
party motored up Sierra Avenue and
turning into the newly christened
boulevard motored down between
strings and festoons of brightly color
ed lights.
The host and his guests and the
quintette then motored out to the
Oahu Country Club, where dancing
was INDUCED in till the wee small
hours. The Country Club, under the
direction of Mrs. Ethel M. Taylor, Ho-
nClulu's leading florist, had assumed
an artistic air. Every ported palm
had been removed, and the decorations
were rustic in their elegant simplicity.
Foremost upon entering was noticed
large map of Kaimuki hung in a
trailing frame of magenta bougainvil-
lea and long graceful strands of aspara-
gus plumosis, which yelled the bios
SONS. Festoons of these were caught
here and there over windows and arch
es, the fireplace being designated by
single lockwood tree growing in pyra-
mid shape.
This was placed between the andi-
rons, and was most effective in its
severity.
The mantel was solidly banked by
clusters of the bougainvillea and lacey
asparagus fern, while the piano was
sWmounted by low pots of Japanese
dwarf pines.
The refreshment tables were grace
fully arranged with squatty baskets of
pure white Shasta daisies and lace
maidenhair, and banked in at the base
with a similar combination. All rib
bon, as detracting from the quaint
rustic suggestion, was omitted.
Many dainty little souvenirs will
serve as a reminder of this suspicious
evening, many having been distribut-
ed.
These took the form of gold satin
ribbons upon which were brooches,
artistically presenting enamelled views
of Wilhelmina Rise, and Honolulu, and
some with tiny maps of Kaimuki.
During the supper a very original
idea was carried out in the paper SER
vlettes which were ornamented with
picturesque maps of Kaimuki
Those invited to this charming oc-
casion were: Governor and Mrs. Wal
