WHY FINE MUSIC.

Every one considers folk songs to
be of a fine kind Of music. Even
the greatest musicians, like Bach,
Beethoven and Chopin, have greatly
admired them because they are so
simple and touching and sincere, OF
course, some are much more beau-
tiful than others, yet all of them
have qualities that make them last.
Folk songs are the finest kind of
music for boys and girls to sing, be-
cause they are so simple and yet
good music-St. Nicholas.

for the court presentation at the coro-
nation of His Britannia Majesty
George V. in June.
These photographs are the first
made of Mrs. Crocker since childhood,
as she has always shown a marked
aversion to the camera, and in con-
sequence they are greatly treasured
by friends fortunate enough to re-
ceive them after her elaborate we'd
ding this spring in San Francisco, Mr..
Durup having come from Boston es-
pecially to display his skill on this
suspicious occasion.
Another Boston bride picture which
looked like an oriental princess was
that of Mrs. Donald Gilpin of Baltimore
now in Egypt on her wedding trip
and also to be presented at court in
June. She was Vincent Club girl
of Boston and hers was one of the
prettiest weddings of the late winter
at Emmanuel Church in Boston.
A very fine bit was the portrait of
Mrs. Charles M. Cooke reading.
So natural and unaffected was the
pose, it seemed almost like an unex-
pected peep into the library.
Another choice head was that of
Mrs. Agnes Judd, whose wonderful
strength and tenderness in her face
dear to all Honolulu seemed to shine
forth wildly in unexpected reality.
Mr.. George Cooke in his rough-rider
shirt brought a Whit of the freedom
of plantation life even into the very
midst of graceful satin toilettes and
the alluring perfumes of the studio.
Mr.. P. G. Jones, one Of Honolulu's
foremost financiers, attracted the ma
iority of gentlemen present as did
also that of Mr.. j. p. Cooke, and a
speaking likeness eof Mr.. Frank Ed
ward Thompson the well-known law
yer of this city.
OF the children's pictures, all were
so greatly admired in their sweet sim
picity, that favorites could hardly be
selected from among the very large
collection, and that corner of the
studio in which they were hung was
unusually crowded all evening.
One of these called "child with
Japanese Poodle" the little daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. Hooking, surely
belonged back with the old etchings
by great masters, so graceful was it
in its primitive strength.
Ernest Peterson seemed about to
| address his young associates with
some happy scheme for their mutual
enjoyment.
Little Harrison Cooke, the son of
Mrs. Clarence Cooke, gazed with a
roguish eye at the passers-by, while

Miss Caroleen Cooke, with her

SOCIAL NEWS OF THE DAY.


Undoubtedly the most artistic re-
ception and the most unique and pic
turesque of the season was that at
which Miss Willard entertained be-
tween the hours of half after eight
and ten on Tuesday evening at the
Hotel Pleasanton, in honor of Mr..
Johan Alfred Durup, who is making 4
short visit to the islands.
In every sense, the reception was
replete with artistic suggestions and
will long be remembered by all who
attended as one of the most unique
and classical which has ever been
given in this city.
The reception was held in the re-
ception rooms of the new bungalow
addition to the hotel which opened
one into another and were replete
with artistic suggestions, and floral
decoration.
The richly panelled drawing room
finished in harmonizing tones OF
brown and gold, was festooned by
long and gracefully fragrant strings
Of green mountain MALE into which
myriads of golden marguerites had
been woven
Here and there on tall pedestals
rested gold filigree baskets brimful
IF white doioioS ond o.,1d N, n ro,,orifoe
while along the cornice were strung
dainty young branches of the pepper
tree interspersed with a cascade com.
prising myriads of white and gold
marguerites and little daisies.
The dark rich brown tones of the
burlap walls loaned themselves ad.
mirably to the artistic ensemble, and
as an appropriate background for the
works of the young artist encased in
gold frames hand-carved in unique
designs and hung with an eye to effec-
tive presentation.
Between were festoons of sweet
MALE, crisp and fragrant from their
mountain wilds and draped with ar.
tistic ease from frame to frame.
The environment of a studio was
completed by the tall lighted Italian
candles in groups of six in the large
recesses of the windows, a feature
which was greatly admired by all who
attended this brilliant reception.
The subdued light of the candles
supported in their tall gold stands
flickered softly, and loaned a graceful
effect to the studio, their golden
flames being reflected in the tall
French panel mirrors facing them
equidistant on the opposite walk.
In this setting many interesting
portraits in choice hand-carved
frames, and taken by Mr.. Durup, were
hung, among them being some won
derfully good pictures of children
from many of Honolulu's represent
ative families, several dainty society
buds and some distinguished lawyers
and society matrons being included
A few of those especially admired
were large head of Miss Alice Cooke
in a picture hat, which resembled g
fine Gainsborough in composition.
Miss Jessie Kennedy, a young de
butante was represented in all hel
girlish simplicity and sweetness.
A young matron, Mrs. Harold Cas-
tie, was commented upon by many
present as resembling Lady Warwick
one of Reynolds famous pictures.
A head of Mrs. Charles Templetor
Croker, nee Helene Irwin, taken in
her exquisite bridal robe and veil at
tracted a great deal of attention
among a wide circle of friends who
had known her from childhood, also
a full length figure in the robe made

the life while her brother Dwight was
equally admired.
The greatest feat seems to obtain
good group, as it is most difficult to
combine high art and conditions per-
tanning to the camera, especially
when young children are the subjects.
However, that of Mrs. A. Lewis Jr.
and children showed great merit, as
did also the two children of Mr. and
Mrs. w. H. Babbitt, and the three
little heirs of Mr.. Ned Damon; the
two tots of Mrs. Ramsey examining
a watch and chain with childish
wonder were well nigh perfect as was
also a large head of the little Ram
sey boy with his beautiful clusters
of curls.
Mrs. j. P. Cooke and child, taken
in the stone arch of her beautiful
home was a charming motherly bit,
and of the real babies, little Francis
Judd Cooke, only a few months old,
and young Waldemar Knudsen, less
than year. won every mothers heart.
A roguish picture with big straw
hat of little Allan Brown, with turned
up pantaloons, brought to mind Bry-

most sweet and vivid portrait of a

1t was a surprise to many that the

richly panelled cool rooms and spa

grounds created a charming atmos-

Those who assisted Miss Willard in
receiving her guests were Mrs.
Charles Bryant Cooper, Mrs. Harold
Castle, Mrs. ]. X. Brown, Miss May
Damon, Mrs. John Erdman and Miss
Marjorie Peterson.
At the entrance, Miss Helen Spald-

graceful little ushers, while Messrs.
Edmund Hedemann, Robert Thomp-

were ushers for the automobile guests.
