WINN|G TEAM
GIVEN A LUAU

I Il baseball season of 1918
eliminated N a most elaborate
luau given by Mr.. B. D. Baldwin,
at his residence at Makaweli last
Saturday evening.
The guests of honor were the
Makaweli team, the officers of the

supporting the Makaweli team.
A large platform had been erect
ed, capable Of holding tables for

music from 6 P. NJ. until 1:3OA. NJ.
Wires were strong all around the
spacious grounds IN k i ng a
veritable fairy garden.
Promptly at 1880 h e guests
took their places at the tables at
which every variety of Hawaiian
dishes had been placed, and for the
next hour or more full justice was
done to Mr.. Baldw,n's hospitality.
Following this, MIR. Baldwin in
well chosen words and few, as
President of the K. A. A. A. pre-
sented Capt. Joe Fassoth, with the
1913 trophy. Joe for once in his
life seemed unable to say anything,
and it was not until he was stimu-
lated and assisted by being told to
close his eyes and imagine he was
talking to an umpire that he could
express his feelings and thanks,
after which, to quote his own
words, he slid for home"
Following this Mr.. S. K. Hay
seldom manager of the Makaweli
Club, on behalf Of h e team,
thanked M r. Baldwin for his
hospitality.

kaha for his work as pitcher during
the season. 1t was recognized that
he deserved the lions share Of
bringing home the bacon"
He went on to say that in ap-
probation of his services a SUBJ
scrlption list had been started two
months ago, win or lose, for the
purpose of procuring a suitable
moments Of this feeling, which
took the concrete form of a hand
some gold watch.
This was presented to Mr.. Kruse
by Mrs. B. S. Baldwin, in a few
happy sentences.
Mr.. Kruse then proved his abb
lity as an orator as we'll as pitch
er. This concluded the ceremonies
and the tables were removed and
dancing was in order.

other side of the island were noted

feel bit OF embarrassment himself.
IL was rather difficult at Hrst but once
the lecture was started things went all
right,
He finished what he had to say and
sat down. The audience and the ma

say. There were no questions from
faculty or students A few of the girls
began to tidget hut no one spoke.

BOLD ADVERTISING.
A German TsiIor's Scheme For Getting
His Circulars Read.

America has the reputation OF hay
ing forgotten more about advertising
methods than Europe has ever known.
But II IL doubtful whether the Ameri-
can business man ever devised a more
ingenious method than that adopted
recently by Dresden tailor.
He addressed his circulars, descrtb-
ing the excellence Of his military tai
loring, to officers Of the reserve In imi-
tatiou official envelopes with the print
ed inscrip ion, For Mobilization
The distributors were dressed In mill
tary uniforms and commenced opera
lions simultaneously IN several Ger
man towns.
Wives of absent reservists were ter
rt1ed by the appearance OF the fateful
envelope mt time when mobilization
and European war were In the air
But the advertiser had scored his
point by lmpressing his name upon his
victim quite indellbly, which is. we are
told, the essential end OF advertising.
The idea is unique for absolute bold
ness and caIousness.-New York Sun.

The electroplating process by which
glassware is decorated with a network
OF silver designs has been extended In
Germany to the plating of porcelain
dishes. such as plntters, bowls, tureens
and ten and coffee sets. Vessels thus
treated are said TO wear better than
either simple porcelain or solid silver
being less fragile than porcelain and
less subject to indentatioD and de.
formation than silver. The product is
called electroporcelain and is cheaper
than plated silverware. The plating
is usually of silver, but sometimes or
nickel I'm some cases instead OF Gov
erlng the entire vessel the plating Is
confined to the handles, knobs and
edges. and cooking pots are usually
left uncovered within. because porce-
lain can more easily be kept clean
than surface OF metal.--Harper's.

SHED AT HOMEMADE SOAP.
The Sight of II Used to Make Stuart
Robson Shudder,

NopSon SnuuueT.
A good story is told of one of the boy
hood experiences OF the late Stuart
Robson, the comedian. 1t was the Gus
tom of his mother TO keep a scrap book
of household recipes clipped from the
newspapers. She came across one that
told how TO make CASTLE soap and
started in at once to make it.
The recipe for this soap called for tai
low grease and fat combined with col
oring matter and I've, and the advan-
tage claimed for It was that 1t econ
omized the scraps In the kitchen.
The first person upon whom the soap
was tried was young Robson, who was
given a cake of II to use while taking a
bath Early one morning he entered
the bathroom armed with n towel and
a huge cake of the homemade soap. A
few minutes after Wild yells were
heard from the bathroom.
The whole household ran to the spot
and, after some delay, succeeded in
forcing an entrance There Mrs Rob
son found her hopeful son in semi
state of couvulsions, hercely dancing
around in II hysterical attempt to rid
his body of bright tan colored layer
of grease.
1t seems that as soon as young Rob
son had stepped from the bath the soap,
which he had used plentlfully, had In
most peculiar manner hardened on
him like cold gravy in n dinner plate
and chung TO him tenaeiously, utterly
refusing 10 be wiped Off
The combined efforts OF his parents
succeeded In seraping 1t off, but from
that day to the day of his death Mr..
Robson had strong aversion TO home
made soap.

following account of the process
Photographs are taken in the after
noon at Monte Carlo and quickly de

photographers prepare copper film by
direct printing from the negative. The
copperplate is covered with narrow
parallel lines of insulating substance
