SOCIAL NEWS OF THE DAY.
That portion of Honolulu society
which lends its ear to music of a
higher quality than is found in all but
one of the local playhouses gathered
at the Young Hotel yesterday after
noon on the occasion of the song re
cital under the direction Of Mrs.
Bruce McVean Mackall The program
was carefully selected, each number
and each singer having special ad-
mirers Some of those who sung APP
peared for the first time at a public
concert, yet they evidenced none Of
the Weaknesses usually found in the
novice. Miss Alice Hopper, whose
songs, Retreat" and 20 Don Fatale,"
admirably suited her rich mezzo-sop-
rano voice, rendered both in a man
ner that called forth prompt recogni-
ton of her talent.
Mrs. A. G. NJ. Robertson won the
hearts of her bearers with her songs
my Laddie" and Gay Butterfly"
AS Mrs. Walbridge was unable to
sing. Mrs Hall consented to appear
twice. Her rendering of "Valzer Di
'Musetta," from la Boheme' was
excellent
Another favorite was Mrs F. T. P.
Warehouse who sang Summer
Night" and The Wedding Morn"
two selections that are always well
received.
Mrs. Charles Weight, who is al
ready far out of the class of begin
ners, won instant success in her songs
wind and Tyre" and 90 Love of Thy
Might" a recitative from Samson
and Delilah."
The best qualities of Mr.. Sedg-
wick's rich baritone voice were
brought forth in the song lei Canto
del PresidiariO."

ence almost to the door Of the child

garden with THE Wood Pigeon" and
"The Yellow Hammer" from Bird
Songs" Both songs were well adapt
ed to the high quality of her sweet
soprano voice.
Mrs. D. Howard Hitchcock played
the accomplishments, and her arts
tic phrasing, combinCh with excellent
technic, contributed much to the sue
cess of the program.
In every respect the recital was
one that should bring a full measure
of praise to Mrs. Mackall, and abund-
ant credit to those whose voices have
yielded to the excellent training she
has bestowed upon them.

THE Y. M. C. A. BUILDING ACCOUNT

A. Gartley, vice chairman; R. A. Cooke,
cecretary; w. G. Hall, F. ]. Lowrey.
w. A. Love was treasurer of the com
mittee, although not a member. The
accounts of the committee were au-
dited by w. ]. Forbes.
1t was in October, 1909, after sew
ersl months of preparation, that the
campaign for a building fund was in
augurated. The plan was to raise
100000 in ten days. At the end of
the first six days S144,OOO had been
subscribed. With $4,000 gift of C.
M. Cooke, nearly 100000 was then
available for the building.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-03-22

Total disbursements ..... S240,59
Original estimates for the cost of the
building were exceeded owing largely
to the fact that it was necessary to
add fire escapes and standpipes after
the building was erected, in order to
conform to newly-enacted ordinances.
For this purpose $4,000 was borrowed
from the Bank of Hawaii. Part of this
money went to the enlargement Of the
Y. M. c. A. cafeteria. The association
expects to take up this note in short
time.
In the subscription campaign the as
sociation reserved the right to use
$4,000 a year for two years, from the
subscribed fund, for current expenses.
Only $6451,75 for the two years was
used. Had it not been for the en-
ployment of the money in this way a
loan of $4,000 to complete the building
enterprise would not have been ne
cessGry.
The uncollected subscriptions
amount to $1S29.95, or eighty-six one
hundredths of one per cent. The usual
shrinkage of this sort is from one to
five per cent.

posed of T. Give Davies. chairman;
