Following the visit to Honolulu OF

reform, and the Christian community
has become so thoroughly awakened
to the necessity of taking up course
of systematic reform work. The topic

the dancers who were under the
legal age. IT understand he said,
that there are supposed to be In

that no inspectors had visited the hall

feature of the dance halls is that
many of the women and girls who
dance there are employed by the man

for appearing there each night to
dance with the patrons of the resort
