-HE HABIT of purchasing new

hats and gowns for Easter Sun.
day has been INDUCED for sc
long that=it has become a Gus
Tom and for years UNFOLD those who
have gone to church on Easter Sun
day have been attiI ed In new hat an
gown. ...... .....
Honolulans have a reputation 70
being different from the residents iE
any other part of the world and i,
has become a fad with many of the
society women here to wear the new
costumes they have secured for the
season the week previous or the
week following Easter. In fact, 3
number Of the women wear tile Oldest
garments they possess on Easter.
This fad is only in existence in soci.
city, for the other good folk wear thei.
new frocks just the same.
The working girl of Honolulu j..
perhaps better dressed than the cir,
wage Garner in any other city, b..
cause there is little change in tn
Eeasons, and inexpensive dresses may
be worn all the year round. Couse
quently the girls are ia a position &c
purchase dainty and appropriate Eas-
ter frocks. They can have silk hos
iery, too, and many Zines when theii
costumes are simply arranged their
station in life cannot be determined
as easily as that of the working girl
on the mainland.
All of this has gone towards making
the society woman disregard the an.
cient custom of the new Easter gown
and bonnet.

WiIhcits Return From Visit
to Honolulu
Mr.. and Mrs. George e. Without re-.
turned home Monday from Honolulu,
where they have been wintering for
the past three months. They took
their automobile to the islands and
drove everywhere. Mr.. Without states
that persons planning to visit the
islands should take their machines be
cause. of the great pleasure to be de-
rived by the many scenic trips and

Mr. Without was in one of the Ho-
