the pleasant social functions of the
year was the opening OF the addition
to the Maui Hotel of which popular
Billy" Field is proprietor. The open
ing occurred on Saturday night, June
%, and the occasion was the elaborate
supper prepared for the knights of
Pythias Lodge. Every member of the
fraternity who could possibly get to
Wailuku was there The dinner was
delicious and the speeches were of the
usual high order enjoyed by that
lodge The tables were very well laid
out, and the brothers sat in large
open square, method of arrange
ment very popular in the States just
at present.
The electric lights were turned on
at the hotel for the first time that
evening, and all were most enthusiasts
tic over the future possibilities of the
Addition for such social functions.
Manager Field has certainly spared
no money or pains in making the new
portion of the hotel up to date in ey-
cry particular. The screened section
will be especially pleasing, and the
new garden in front of the dining hall
will make the place one of the beauty
spots of Wailuku.
