Over 800 Women and Children

LITTLE ONES ARE HAPPY
They Go Wild Over the Merry

Personal News and Notes of
North Side Folks.

Over 300 people, children and their
parents, are the guests of the Salvation
Army today, at Garfield park, where
the army is holding their annual picnic.
At 10 o'clock this morning the hrst
group met at the army hall, S15 Kansas
avenue and waited for the park cars.
The children were dressed in their best.
Nearly every one of the little ones wore
some exceptionally bright bit OF color.
And the neat dresses bore traces or
being ironed by the hand of the patient
mother Just last night for the occasion.
The boys trousers too were neat and
only rarely did patch show or tiny
toe peep from tear in little shoe
As the groups waited the children
were round-eyed with excitement.
When they reached the park the little
girls in their starched Bingham dresses
fairly swarmed over the grounds like
butterflies.
For on the caroussel there were the
much-heard-of horses with wonoe[Iu ]
tails that looked just like the ones that
fairy prince rode on in the picture
books-seen in the store windows at
Christmas time, or if work was plen-
tifuI perhaps Santa Claus brought SUCH
a book for ones very own.
In many cases it was much more en-
iowa BILE to ride on the horses than to
look at the pictures and the little folk
made the most of their opportunities.
Then too there was the wonderful
seats only much higher, on which one
went up and up almost to the clouds
and swooped down with a rush that
took the breath away. And there were
the cunning little shetland ponies,
pretty enough for any fairy princess.
But above all it was great for the
children-and their parents-to be out
under the tall solemn looking trees,
which when you sit under them and
look up at the sky. make you feel like
you were in church, some how or
other.
OF course there was the splendid din
ner and games and "teeter totter" an
enjoyed by the children.
One of the little girls just before din
ner walked slowly from the caroussel
with what looked like a big doll with
f1axen hair. But the ''doll'' was alive
her little sister. The baby was sleepy
and big sister was carrying her to a
shady place-in the manner of little
mother among the children.

The llama and alpaca are dOmesti-

stand about three feet at the Shout

RECREATIONS
FAMOUS SINGERS
AND CELLIST HERE:

With the arrival of the Mariana to-
day, the scanning of the passenger
list, Honolulu music lovers are as.
sured that their musical dream is to
become a reality for conspicuous
among the names on the printed list
are those of Count and Countess de
Cisneros, Paul Dufault and James
Liebling.
; Although the first concert will not
be given until Friday evening, Octo-
her IL, the intervening time will
give Mamade an opportunity to be-
come accustomed to Honolulu's Kona
breezes and to prepare her throat for
the thrills she will give her audience
on Friday and Tuesday, October Is.
Madame de Cisneros will be at
traction enough for a concert but a
treble attraction is not too much for
those who care for music and so M.
Paul Dufault and James Liebling will
add their arts to the two evenings.
These two artists come fresh from
successes in Australia The follow
ing was clipped from Sydney paper:
"The tenor, M. Paul Dufault, will
have many admirers in Sydney. Ma
dame de Cisneros had justly estimat-
ed his qualities. His voice is abund-
ant in sweetness, and he has no lack
of power. His success was immedi-
ate, and he enjoyed the compliment
of a double encore.
Mr.. James Liebifng, the 'cellist,
is a mature artist, who plays with a
beautiful, warm tone, which he uses
to produce enhancing melodic eff
tects, while in difficult technical pas
sages he plays with lucidity and GER
tainty."
Seats are on sale at the rooms of
the Hawaiian Promotion Committee.

The oyer-use OF perfume is very
like the oyer-use of medicine in
some instances. There was woman
once who was told that certain
