San Francisco society folks have
for sometime been Planning the char
ity ball for the benefit of the Catholic
Humane Bureau To care for orphaned
children. The function took place at
the Scottish Rite Hall on the twenty
eighth of March and was brilliant
success Madame Louise Tetrazzini,
beloved in San Francisco, contributed
to the affair by singing several solos.
The ball was one of the largest so
5 clety events given in San Francisco
for some months and the committee
was able to realize several thousand
dollars
There Isl no doubt whatever but
that the mere suggestion Of charity
ball in Honolulu would be hailed with
interest Such an affair would not
entail half the work the fair demands
and the local society women who are
always so wiling to help the needy
would enter into the charity ball idea
with heart and soul.
Dancing has again been resumed in
s.Honoltflu, for instead of the usual
run of card parties and receptions
there have been several dances dur
ing the past fortnight and there are
70 be a number in the near future.
Last Saturday evening the Macdonald
guests and Judge and Mrs William
Whitney gave dances. Last evening
Mr.. and Mrs w. r. Castle and Miss
Castle entertained at an elaborate
Junction. This evening the students
Of Mckinley High School and the
members OF the Hui Nalu Club win
have dances. and the Kunalu Rowing
Club and the young men of the young
er set are planning dances Because
OF the fact that everyone here wants
to dance, a charity ball might not be
q bad idea after all.
