fine fishing; few indoor dances. but many picnics at Waikiki, where the seaside residences are and the beach which is the great water playground for the people of the city.
 In Hawaii we are made aware of the approach of Christmas day all the pre- ceding night. All night the Hawaiian warblers are abroad, all night the toy cannons boom, the firecrackers pop. The newcomer feels the midwinter holiday has changed places with the midsummer one, and wonders if per son can stand two "Fourths" in year. Where live in Honolulu sleep on the night before Christmas Is impossible. Fortified, not for resistance but for a show of truce, with scores of oranges and innumerable sacks of candy, go to my room and await, with as good grace as possible, the coming of my visitors. About midnight l hear the sound of many footsteps on the gravel, stifled mirth, the testing of strings. and then burst forth, "A ruby lip to kiss, love-" and other songs of that i1k. The newcomer is surprised and asks if these be Christmas waits; says she is reminded rather of crowd of Romeos besieging Juliet. The Ro- meos at the particular balcony of which speak, never found Juliet un- responsive, and into outstretched hands always fall rain of goodies. There are hearty thanks called up to the windows, and many pleasant voices raised in Merry Kreesmus! Merry Kreesmus!" The giver feels repaid, and philosophizes that the loss of one nights sleep Is not so very seri- ous.
 On the islands there is an attempt made to copy the Christmas of the lands where the white man abounds; gift-making, church-going, plum-pud. ding and greens are used to help 1t put. Many of the gifts are such as you of cold climes have-toys, games. books, flowers, pictures, dolls, jewelry, inery; but, as was suggested above, there is no call for skates, sleds, muf- Hers, furs or velvets. The church going is as 1t is with you; early mass for the Catholics, early service for the Episcopal church folk, church festivi. ties for the little ones and the poor.
 The going out into the highways and hedges is literally followed in Hono- lulu at this season. Brown babies from novels hid at the foot of Diamond Head, big-eyed Portuguese girls and boys from the slopes of Punch Bowl, children sheltered in huts dotted among the lantana thickets of Kalihi valley, little aquatics from Waikiki, all

Sandwich Islands as an independent state." Close to Independence Day comes Thanksgiving, which is cele- brated by all, the divers races in Ha. waii uniting to make holiday of the New Englander's harvest festival.
 And now for the one great holiday of all the year.
 With us islanders, as with you of the States, Christmas is the holiday of all the year, is long looked forward to, long kept in recollection. No man so hoary, so superstitious, so clothed about with the old Hawaiian fears of evil, but that has heard of the magi and the Child: no little one in all the land but feels some influence of the spirit of the giyer.
 Though there is much of real Christ mas in the air in the way of unseliish giving of pleasure and of renewal of youthful feelings, to you the twenty fifth of December in Honolulu prob ably would not seem very much like Christmas. The gowns are white, the hats summery; many feet are bare, and at the beach considerable of the body of the native fisherman is also bare The hibiscus hedges are aflame with blossoms, while the odors of roses, yiolets, stephanotis, heliotrope, plumarias and carnations make the air heavy with fragrance. There are no sleigh bells, but many merry horse back parties; there is no skating. but

of Hawaii. July Fourth, which now has double meaning in Hawaii, has all ways been the American residents great day.
 "One learns to skate in summer and to swim in winter,'' and one learns pa triotism in foreign land. At home, save in stirring times of war, ones heart is not apt to quicken it's beat at the sound Of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at home in midsummer one does not often brave heat and crowd to listen to the reading of the Declara- tion of Independence; at home one does not flaunt red, white and blue on hatband and with badge; but we all know how the American in London and Berlin comports himself on this day, which when at home he tries to run away from. In the little land of Hawaii the citizen born in "the States" is not behind the American in London and Berlin. All muster to make of the day a glorious Fourth. and no one is in the least blase or indif- ferent about the celebration. The na- tional songs rise Justify, way up above the palm fringes; the clearest voice in the land reads the immortal words of "When in the course of human events," and reads to reverent listen.
